Dr Flintstone, President of Quarry College, Needs to Convince Students

Dr. Flintstone, president of Quarry College, needs to convince students that the college must double its tuition beginning in five years. He is hiring someone to promote this idea, as well as developing supportive arguments. Would he need to adopt a different strategy if he instead wanted to implement the change in the next academic year?

A) No. He should do the same thing either way.
B) Yes. If the change is to happen next year, the strength of the arguments will matter more than whom he hires to promote the idea.
C) Yes. If the change is to happen next year, the person he hires will matter more than the strength of the arguments.
D) Yes. If the change is to happen next year, obtaining a credible promoter and generating strong arguments will both be more crucial than if the change will happen in five years.
