I believe the decision to continue to work with ISU Dining is the right one, from both a financial standpoint and the demonstrated ability to serve our Iowa State students well and enhance the student experience at Iowa State.
I applaud Director (Robert) Mueller for reaching out to Iowa State and other universities.
He shares the vision that I have: to elevate the overall athletics program at Iowa State and to increase resources and make Cyclone athletics great,
I get advice in all directions from people with an interest in Iowa State. A lot of opinions come my way, but look at the track record of the athletic department - it's in great financial shape and the National Cyclone Club membership is up.
He sees this as an opportunity to elevate the Iowa State athletic program to a higher level, and he has great momentum and a great foundation to build upon.
