Counterarguments regarding topic?

The position i took regarding urban/academic growth vs. preservation of natural lands was more of a middle fence. The constructive approach i used didn't really call for one side taking priority over the other. Both the school board and their developers as well as enviornmentalists should be rewarded ,(almost entitled), their piece of the pie. Colleges should be expanded in respect of the growing population but the surrounding lands need protection to ensure a continuing life for them.
