Mr. Right: Cloud of disdain created by administration and complacent students
Feb. 21, 2008In his Feb. 19 letter to the editor, Curtis Nash was right about one thing: There is a cloud of disdain and distrust hovering over this campus, but this cloud has been created by administrative ineptitude and indifference to student concerns. Moreover, students like Mr. Nash and the majority of our student senators have contributed to this undesirable atmosphere by their complacency and their willingness to participate in a system that turns the only voice that students have into a rubber stamp for the administration. If Mr. Nash is truly worried about the atmosphere on campus, he shouldn't blame The Post, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) or other groups that have been working toward shared and transparent governance. Dedicated activists and a free press are all that stand in the way of an administration that would prefer to dictate to students rather than taking our input under serious consideration.
