I agree with OldGoldLegs... How inappropriate for the UDK to suggest that Senate OK'd "gifts" from Athletics. Senate simply rejected a horribly written bill from the Rights Committee. The UDK often preaches about Student Senate funding 3rd party organizations and how wrong that is..... guess what? Student Senate funds the UDK! A third Party! I encourage all Student Senators to begin to question the funding of our government's "watchdog." I also encourage them to write legislation that would dramatically cut the UDK's funding from Student Senate. They may get it back when they write correct, honest, unbiased legislation.
Maybe the UDK Editorial Board should write something about their funding??? How's that for free speech???
Jarrod, I honestly think you are mistaken about who Pachacamac is and whether or not they were even present at Student Senate last night. Just thought I'd clear that up.
Haha, Handy you really missed the ball on that one. Cox's bill removes checks and balances and gives unchecked power to the Student Senate to raise student fees without executive approval. In case you didn't know, student fees are a part of rules and regs. Get caught up. And please, tell me how many times the U.S. Congress amends the Constitution and how many times Student Senate changes rules and regs? Can you tell me the last time both bodies respectively did so? Thanks.
At Tuesday's debate, the presidential candidate for Tom Cox's coalition said that they would be running on a "Have a say before you pay" platform. This policy requires a Student Body President to be able to veto bills passed by Student Senate that raise fees without a student vote. Raising a fee requires a 2/3 vote and thus Tom Cox's bill would not allow a veto of a fee increase. A student wouldn't get to have a say before they pay? So who's fooling you? Tom Cox or Connect?
