Tisleen, unfortunately ran unopposed, so it’s probably hard for her to appreciate the office she’s in. But let her leave meetings early to bartend, better practice for life after college.

“The student body is uneducated,” Singh said.

As the Vice President of Student Activities was quoted saying this, I am ashamed she was voted into office. Wasn’t it just recently she was called out on leaving meetings early to bartend and for using her cell phone during meetings? The Senate gets its bad reputation because of comments like this. If this is what the leaders of our Senate believe, they are the ones who need to be educated. Speak for yourself, Tisleen.

What is there to do? Senate doesn’t listen to anyone outside of their own circles.

maybe what you’re complaining about is what she means. If you’re going to complain, do something about it.

“Singh suggested students run for positions as senators or committee members if they had opinions to voice for the student body.”

That’s the most pretentious thing I’ve ever heard. Get a clue, Tisleen

We all know elections at Drake are a popularity contest dominated by greek life’s incessant need to maintain their dominance on campus, and each house’s superiority among greek street. And I’m in the greek system myself, so don’t think I’m saying this as a GDI with an axe to grind.
