Wage Support

Somehow in the smoke and
sparks of vigorous endeavor at
Tuesday's Student Council meeting,
my vote in SUPPORT of Mr. Ogle's
motion for raising the wages of the
University's bottom scale employees
was misreported as
AGAINST. In support of the motion,
I made a comment after its
passing that we not let this issue die
on the vine, but rather work with
the Administration (as it was noted
that they favor it) to convince the
powers at State level that positive
action (in response to this issue)
was of extreme importance.

As a general comment on The
Cavalier Daily's reporting of Student
Council meetings, I feel that
quite often Mr. Adams reports
colorful comments or statements
by individuals with whom he
sympathizes. These comments quite
often are irrelevant and by so reporting,
Mr. Adams does not accurately
reflect the decision-making
process that took place.
