For a lucky few, graduating means getting a job and starting a career.

Ohio University Student Senators are submitting two new resolutions regarding the Board of Trustees.
There really is no place like home.
Student Senate voted down a resolution to add a vote of confidence in Ohio University's Board of Trustees last night after an hour of heated debate.
Ohio University ended a two-year legal battle in March, agreeing to pay two former employees $90,000 and revise censorship of a controversial report on the series of computer security breaches that rocked the university in 2006.
Ohio University freshman Ibriham Alassaf first began researching fluoridation his senior year of high school after hearing about it on a radio show, and is pushing City Council to end the practice.

In 1984, former Ohio University President John C. Baker and his wife Elizabeth established the John and Elizabeth Baker Peace Studies Endowment and held the first Baker Peace Conference at OU.
I am a little confused and maybe someone can explain to me what is going on. As most everyone knows there are layoffs at Ohio University because of the budget, but what I am having trouble understanding is that if OU is in such a budget crisis, what was the ad in the Sunday paper for a director of retail for the vice president for Finance and Administration? I think that is Bill Decatur's Office. I think he has a number of assistants, and yet he needs more. There is something wrong with this picture. When he lays off all the people who keep the university up and running, is he going to go clean a dorm, fix an overflowing commode, or clean up vomit in the stairwell? I don't think so. Ohio University is overflowing with chiefs, and we are slowly running out of Indians. I have talked to Dr. McDavis and Mr. Decatur before about other things, and neither one of them has ever gotten back to me. But Dr. McDavis and Mr. Decatur have college degrees, and I am sure they know what they are doing.

Ohio University's Student Senate has forgotten its role: to represent the student body.
On Wednesday, April 1, I attended a Student Senate meeting for the first time so that I could show my support for the proposal to add a vote of confidence in the voting members of the Board of Trustees to the May 16 Senate ballot. As a student at Ohio University, I feel that I should have the right to at least voice my opinion about the people who wield the most power here at OU. Much to my surprise, and dismay, 22 of the 34 Student Senators did not feel the same way; their main argument being that the students of Ohio University do not have the knowledge or understanding of the Board of Trustees to form such an opinion. Well, to those 22 senators, I say to you that I do have the knowledge and that your feeble arguments were insulting to all of those whom you supposedly represent. Wednesday night, 10 students came to the Student Senate to show their support of this proposal. Ten students who asked to have the chance for their voice to be heard; 10 students who you denied a voice. On Wednesday, 22 of you chose not to represent those who elected you into a position of power; but fear not, you will have the chance to redeem yourselves next week. We will be back.
