You whine, you complain and you constantly degrade our elected student voices instead of offering your own ideas to make it better. Some of you are clearly still bitter about the results of last year's election (It was so unfortunate that group of student representatives wasn't elected that would have resorted to anarchist characteristics). So, stop trying to make a scene and maybe try collaborating with our current senate to form a better student voice.
