Page 2 EDITORIAL The Carroll News, December 11 , 1986 Far from perfect Did anyone ask you if you wanted a tuition raise? Is ~ anybod\' explaining the c hanges the students want in the core w requirements to the facuJty? And what about Lhe FaU semester ~ break everyone's been talking about? A These are valid concerns of the John Carroll student that T are being neglected. The students themselves have no say in E the decision making process at Carroll because they do nol R pursue their right to speak. T The onlv reason this university exists is because of the ~ students. How con this majority be ignored so profoundly in I the university's decision making process? Only through its own s silence. y What students fail to realizo is thatthoy have an organiza­ tion to serve ns their voice. Th(l Student Union is the student government of John C~rroll University and represents the ~ students as a political body. ll must voice the students' opi­ R> nion in polic:y matters which affect them. {T7 The administration is not deaf to the students: it cannot 0 hear them. Unless the student body makes the administration aware of its wishes. it will never become involved in the deci­ sions that directly affect it. Contemplate these points over Christmas break and think about the things you'd like to change.
