There has been a lot of publicity around this project lately, and it has received a lot of support from past students, but has also received negative comments as well. Both Ray and Carl have been using every opportunity available to them to beg for money to cover the cost of this enormous project. Let it be known that the Jamaican government does not have the resources to support all the necessary projects, so someone else has to drum up the money needed, if the life of our great institution is to continue into the distant future.

Where else is the money to come from if not from past students? The cost to refurbish the O'Hare building is about $30 million Jamaican dollars, or over some $400,000 Cdn. If these two guys don't do it, then who else would want to take on this job? Instead of balking at their project, those who see this project in a negative light should be praying for their success and wishing them well with it. Over the past 45 years there have been 6,000 plus graduates from the college.

If every one of us donated a small amount, this amount would more than cover the costs required for the job. And yes, it's no secret that one person has generously donated hefty sums of money over the years, to the school, but we can't keep drawing from this well forever. There has to be other sources of income support for #2 North Street. The social and academic skills that were taught to us is greatly responsible for the decent lifestyle many of us are experiencing today, and in My View, we should all be contributing something towards the future existence of the institution, so that others can have the same experience.
