[ASU] Laura Hyde

[Danielle Kapatamoyo]

Dear Colleagues,
First of all, before we go any further in this argument, let us read the ASU constitution and base our arguments on that. 
Thank you,
Kombe Kapatamoyo.

I dont know if this is right but i think Edwina's reaction is not in the best of taste as far as decency in language is concern. I would want to say that  in reacting to Laura's acceptance of her nomination, i was careful not to tread on dangerous grounds such as race and all that because as Abobo stated it is forbidden in Ohio University which i applaud very much.  i have read the constitution and therefore understood who qualifies and who does not. In this case she qualifies perfectly, my only concern was that a position such as Vice President requires some one who knows more and has been around the organization to warrant this position.

Was that last comment in response to Laura's nomination meant to me some sort of a joke.

I have never seen such closed mindedness before. Please explain the logic in turning away someone who is trying to display commitment and enthusiasm for an otherwise ineffective collection of megalomaniacs claiming to represent ASU?


Laura, as a former ASU member, I apologize for the rude sentiments of hopefully one individual. However, if this individual is speaking for the group, I no longer wish to be affiliated with the group.

Good luck to the new administration. I hope u guys are not as short sighted, egocentric or ethnocentric as your colleague.

Edwina
