Members say YES. Board says NO.
Despite 63.2% of voters in favor of some allowance of student voting, the Board chose to ignore the vote results favoring change and to instead stay the course (wherever that course is leading). I am extremely disappointed in this decision, and my faith in the Board’s ability to enable positive change has again fallen a notch.
What was the point of conducting the survey if you’re going to ignore the results?
The membership deserves to know the full reasoning behind this decision and student members need full reasoning as to why they are still not considered “real” members. It’s only fair that we get the whole story. After all, you asked us our thoughts via the vote.
But to play Devil’s Advocate… I guess it doesn’t matter if student members get to vote or not, because apparently any member’s vote really doesn’t have any weight in the eyes of the Board.
