There's always going to be something in your way like that, remember she's just an obstacle not an unmovable limitation you have to live with; please don't let it discourage you. I've been fighting the administration at my school with a thousand and one projects-- anywhere from starting a JROTC program to fixing the school's water foutnains-- where I'd show up with full plans and all steps taken care of, 400 signatures and even the funding and they'd shit on me because it's too inconvenient for them to sign some documents. I took that shit cause after some time I felt that I had no choice; you're moving forward with a really good thing despite a thousand times that same resistance, so you better keep us posted until your non-profit becomes the biggest in the U.S. (edit - didn't mean that as a pep talk more of a desperate plea in search of good people actually being successful)
Agree 100%. If anything it motivates us even more; nothing like adversity to make convictions stronger. It's a shame that your school shits on your ideas, but I hope they have reasons beyond the inconvenience of signing stuff. JROTC does require financial maintenance, though; if you want to keep pushing it hit up your local American Legion post and explain the situation to them. They'd be more than happy to approach your school about it and could probably find support, volunteers, and funding beyond your reach. The fountain though... no excuse for them. Awesome that you're proactive about that kind of stuff, though. Hopefully!she's just an obstacle not an unmovable limitation you have to live with

Of course there's a lot more outside of my control, I'm just being pissy. Best of luck to the both of us then :D
