MARKETING FRAMEWORK
1. SET STRATEGY: What are your higher level goals? What does success look like?

“This college cares more about school image than students. You will be a piece of merchandise when you get there. Gorgeous campus is probably where 99.999% of tuition goes.”
“The buildings are in awful condition. I was fortunate enough to have a private bath, but I really wish I didn't. The room was a combination of mold, rust, and water stains. I can count with my fingers how many warm (hot is totally out of the question) showers I took.”
“I would change the way the administration is run. A lot of times it feels despite the ridiculous tuition that very little of the money comes back to the students (ex. my physiology lab required us to buy latex gloves for dissection days, which feels like giving your little brother a $20 to go get you ice cream and him coming back with 10 Pokemon cards and saying the $20 wasn't enough).”
