Editor,
The GPSA President and Council Chair forum on Monday was a new beginning in GPSA. The forum was structured, fair and well moderated. Each candidate spoke eloquently outlining their differences in a respectful manner. Rather than candidate attacks and accusations, the GPSA issues were front and center the entire time. The forum began with candidate introductions and immediately turned to the issues at hand.
Funding, student fees, transparency and discussions of student unity prevailed as each candidate drew sharp distinctions in management style and ideas to remedy the funding crisis. The forum was almost complete but lacking student attendance. Let me take this opportunity on behalf of GPSA to personally invite all students and their organizations, staff, administration and regents to the next two forums. Please join us at the Domenici Center today starting at 10 a.m. If you are unable to make it today, our final forum will be held Thursday at El Centro de la Raza at 2 p.m. Please come, listen, speak and support your UNM community.
Everyone’s a Lobo!
