Ideas are the groundwork for future laws and practices. College campuses serve as a birthplace for many influential thoughts that shape the state of things to come. Expressing opinions in debates and collecting information from teach- ins are stepping stones on the path of our nation's progress. Words, however, are simply not enough. Last Wednesday, designated as National Take Affirmative Action Day, four guest experts put time and effort into educating the Grand Valley State University community in a panel discussion about the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative, also known as Proposal 2, which will appear on the state ballot Nov. 7. By bringing in advocates from either side YOUR INSIGHTS of the issue, the audience was exposed to the initiative's objectives from multiple viewpoints. If passed, it will remove Affirmative Action from not only GVSU, but every public How well do you think college prepares you university in the state. Affirmative Action impacts students and staff in terms of enrollment and retention. For these for the real world? reasons, everyone at the university is responsible for learning about it. Those who missed the various information sessions and student march held Wednesday must now make their own time to become familiar with the issue. As the final two weeks dwindle toward the opening of the polls, current staff and students need to take ownership in the future of this university and that of others in the state. Students enroll in college to learn. This is a chance to put that knowledge to work before graduation. While education is the key, action is the door for which it unlocks. Students and staff need to bring their ideas to life "It depends on how people "For my major, college "As a grad student, "College isn ’t the perfect use the opportunities gets me a pass to graduate everything is set up to preparation, but you are by voting not only for the state’s next governor, but on ballot available to them.
