Post ignored Senate's true record of action
June 2, 2005We are writing this letter to express our disdain for the editorial of June 2 (Student What?) regarding the Ohio University Student Senate. We feel that The Post's editorial board conducted woefully inadequate research regarding the legislative history of the 2004-2005 Student Senate.

We are writing to expose this as an outright fabrication.
