Original: In the lecture, the student proposed that the university should improve the current health center by hiring more doctors as well as opening the health center on weekends. In the discussion, a student suggests that the university could improve the health center by employing additional doctors and extending its operating hours to include weekends.（将“lecture”改为“discussion”，使语境更符合题目要求；使用更高级的词汇，如“employing additional doctors”和“extending its operating hours”来替换原文中的表述。）

And in the lecture, the man disagreed with this idea. However, another student disagrees with this proposal.（简化句子结构，使表述更自然。）

Firstly, he believes that the current health center is really tiny, and suffering from the lack of space, so hiring more doctors will only make the situation worse. First, he argues that the existing health center is quite small and faces a space constraint; thus, adding more doctors would exacerbate the issue.（使用更高级的词汇和更自然的句子结构，如“existing health center”，“quite small”，“faces a space constraint”和“exacerbate”。）

So he believes that they should build some offices and treatment rooms first before hiring any doctors. He suggests constructing additional offices and treatment rooms before recruiting new medical staff.（使用更高级的词汇和更自然的句子结构，如“constructing additional offices and treatment rooms”和“recruiting new medical staff”。）

And the second point is that he thinks it is unnecessary to open the health center on weekends, since a lot of students would go home and leave town on weekends. The second point he raises is that opening the health center on weekends may be unnecessary, as many students tend to leave campus during this time.（使用更高级的词汇和更自然的句子结构，如“raises”，“may be unnecessary”和“tend to”。）

Since there are not so many students, there is not so much demand of treatments. Consequently, the demand for medical services might be relatively low during weekends.（使用更高级的词汇和更自然的句子结构，如“Consequently”，“medical services”和“relatively low”。）

Revised Answer (140 words):

In the discussion, a student suggests that the university could improve the health center by employing additional doctors and extending its operating hours to include weekends.

First, he argues that the existing health center is quite small and faces a space constraint; thus, adding more doctors would exacerbate the issue. He suggests constructing additional offices and treatment rooms before recruiting new medical staff. The second point he raises is that opening the health center on weekends may be unnecessary, as many students tend to leave campus during this time. Consequently, the demand for medical services might be relatively low during weekends.
