Your Turn: Students asked to speak out
Jan. 27, 2009Believe it or not, there was more than one resolution up for vote last week on Student Senate. Last week, the student body mobilized against the Ohio University Board of Trustees' Statement of Expectations. In the beginning of the week, Student Senate was presented with the opportunity to draft a resolution calling for the Board of Trustees to amend their Statement of Expectations to remove the voice-restricting portions. The resolution passed overwhelmingly. At the Board of Trustees meeting the very next day, the board members were presented with our resolution and decided to take their Statement of Expectations back to the drawing board in order to fix the pertinent sections. I write now to remind all students that their voice can and will make a difference in this university. I praise the fact that so many students came to speak at the Student Senate Speakout, the first portion of our general body meetings when students can speak to the Student Senate concerning any issue the student desires, last Wednesday, but it was the first time all year that anyone actually came to speak out. I personally believe that the resolution calling for President McDavis (for which I voted in favor) failed because many senators believed that it was only one specific group of students who actually wanted the resolution to pass, and not the interest of the wider student body. I beg the student body to never let there be a Student Senate Speakout without any students to speak out ever again. Wednesdays, 7:15 in Walter 235. See you there.
