The soccer coach at Atoms College would like to run a three-week 'soccer camp' for high-school students in July on the college campus. This would be a private operation of his own, but he would rent the college's playing field and locker rooms. The 'campers' would be housed in college dormitories, and would pay for their room and board there. The coach points out that this arrangement would be advantageous for the college, since it would generate some income from facilities that would normally be unused during the summer.
Which of the following is a compelling argument against the coach's plans?
A) The professional staff of the college library is unavailable during the summer months.
B) There is little reason to believe that the most talented athletes who attend the soccer camp will enroll at Atoms when they graduate from high-school.
C) The dormitories and other facilities may be damaged by the high-school students, living away from home for the first time.
D) Hosting such a camp will give Atoms College an undesirable reputation as a soccer school.
E) Atoms College has traditionally had a stronger program in basketball than in soccer.

The argument talks about a soccer camp to be conducted by the coach,
in which he intends to use the facilities of the college during the special summer camp.
He claims that due to this move, the facilities which will be otherwise remain unused
will generate some additional revenue for the college, as he would be renting out the facilities.
Since we need to draw a compelling argument against the coach's plans,
The dormitories and other facilities may be damaged by the high-school students,
living away from home for the first time. (Option C) should be the correct answer choice.
If the facilities are damaged and the cost to renovate the facilities is greater than income generated,
the plan will not be of any benefit for the school.

Me too C.
C says that there will not be any financial benefit rather there may be financial loss.
