S.G.A. hears Summit debate: Concerns of constituencies addressed
BY DON D'ORTO Contributing writer Argument and debate concerning the Summit dominated the SGA Senate and training session Wednesday for the Summit this Friday, November 5th. Many SGA senators voiced complaints about how their constituents felt that the Summit would not be greatly influenced by the student body; and that many students had already decided not to attend on Friday. Other senators felt that more immediate, short—term concerns such as parking on campus were being ignored. A few senators even commented that they plan to boycott the Summit as a symbol of their discontent that students were not on the Task Force on the 21 st Century, which compiled the Rollins College Mission Statement draft. Professor Thomas Lairson, a Faculty member of the Politics department and a member of the Task Force on the 21st Century, was present at the Senate meeting and responded to the concerns of senators and their constituents. He commented that the We Complete The Puzzle! Mission Statement was a long-term goals statement, which was written with the intention that student input would modify and compliment the Task Force's statement. The Nation's Hottest Graduate School Counseling firm As to why the Task Force was not a representative group including students and many staff members at Rollins College, Professor Lairson said that representative task forces tend to not generate the prominent and challenging proposals that anon-representative • GRE, GMAT, MCAT, and LSAT preparation! group does.
