Even with her education Holly just doesn't get it. Take her ASD for example. Taxpayers and the state already give students nearly 17 thousand per year per student with poor results. There is clearly wasted money in the ASD as they have money to blow paying thousands to hire a lobbyist rather than contacting legislators themselves . Then there's her UAA.  If they are so short on money for the classroom why did they build a 110 million , 5600 seat arena that only gets filled when non-UAA events are held there ? Why does the U of A spend over 10 million per year on sports and send sports teams on junkets to Hawaii ? And here's the big one---since she got so much free education , how much money has she personally donated to the U of A as a real thank you ?  Most teachers work part time yet get a full years pay . The incentive to teach is summers off , Christmas vacation , Spring break and medical insurance . Why do educators refuse pay freezes to help out instead of always demanding more ?
