Mountains out of Molehills In Response to: Future of HCSA under debate

I would say that these types of issues are blown way out of proportion. It seems that this issue is for the Honors College students to decide. Simply, they can vote for the current HCSA or an HCSA that looks to keep the elements of the current, but expand the purview and participation of the HCSA and make it more of a representative body.
