Student control is a bad
idea
By Tarek Sami
Wednesday afternoon there was some sort of rally/protest/meeting thing at
Crowell concert hall. I slept right through it, and honestly wouldn’t have gone
had I been awake. Apparently the issue at hand was administrative transparency.
The people at Wesleyan who love to hear their own voices have decided for some
reason that they should be privy to information concerning decisions on how the
University is run. I cannot stress how bad an idea that is. Opening up
administrative processes for student review is an obvious foot in the door for
student interference. At Wesleyan (as at most institutions) the squeaky wheel
gets the grease, and my life is controlled too much already by the half-baked
whining of a few special interest groups.
To be honest, though, I have a generally low level of respect for all of you
motherfuckers; as bad as the school runs now, the smart money would speculate
that it would get worse if they let you all get more involved.
P.S. The patches you’re all wearing are adorable. Where do I get one that says
“completely apathetic”?
