Chancellor James C. Renick

Chancellor

James C. Renick

I believe that the Aggie Dome should be named in the honor of James C. Renick. The aggie dome was previously known as the "student center" now serving as an indoor training facility. James C. Renick made numerous accomplishments during his time serving as chancellor. Including the implementation of the "February One" monument. I feel he deserves to be rewarded with a building in his honor, and the aggie dome is a good demonstration for his legacy.
