    Leadership at the college is obviously subpar. As a matter of fact, I dare to say nonexistent.
    This is the second show I've attended since returning home and PRESIDENT NOR ANY OF THE VICE PRESIDENTS were in attendance.
    It reflects poorly on the institution and I hope the Board of Governors take note.
    It is embarrassing, and they should be ashamed.
