Finally an Article with Everything

Topics:

I remember reading some blogs about the quality of facilities at schools, JB also wrote some blogs about exercising, and most of the blogs have been about technology, but I have finally found an article that puts it all together. This article on CNN.com talks about putting computers in front of students on workout equipment. This allows them to check email, read, write papers, or watch TV while getting exercise. On student says:

Sarah Lerczak, a sophomore, said she’ll probably stick to watching TV, but likes the e-mail option. “If you have to check your e-mail you don’t have to make two stops. You can go right to the gym,” she said. “It’s a big convenience.

I understand that every year schools face the tough decision with limited money as to either improve the quality of the education or the quality of the facilities. I wonder the process in which school’s use to make these decisions. As much as I would like computers in front of my treadmills I understand the importance of spending money in other areas.
