A simple SCAD solution
Thank you for the series of articles on SCAD and its impacts on the city. It seems to me that all the issues could easily be mitigated if SCAD would just do one simple thing: offer payments to the city in lieu of taxes.
That is what the really fine major universities do and that is what would put SCAD in their league. In addition, it’s simply the right thing to do. And it would go a long way to create good PR for SCAD.

Expressing gratitude to those who deal with our ‘shoulds’
Beautiful Savannah has plenty of opinionated people – including me – about what “should be done.”
We read loads of comments and judgments about SCAD and what they “should” do. The Canal District, the STVRS, now the Civic Center, crime and that somebody “should” fix all of these issues.
Let’s drop the “should” unless we personally have solutions worth their weight and we are willing to step up.
Hopefully, with this Easter season, we’ll recognize the beauty of our city and all it has to offer and we’ll learn to be patient, to show understanding as well as gratitude to those who actually serve us every day within the City Council.
