New building name on campus?

I think that the Student center should be named after Chancellor James Renick. The student center is a big part of our campus because a lot of networking happens here and Renick Ultimatly helped with the networking process because he increased enrollment by nearly 30%. He was also responsible for new academic facilities, residence halls, and several infrastructure imporvements on campus.
