Poll
This week's Student Assocation meeting played host for VP of Finance Kathy Collins and Dean of Undergraduates Robin Forman. Students in attendance had an opportunity to present their questions and concerns to both members of the administration (see
article
). How do think it went?
The meeting went great - couldn't have gone any better. All the necessary questions were asked, and both Collins and Forman gave well-prepared and clear answers to the issues presented in the meeting.
The meeting went alright but did not solve any issues or really give any concrete answers to the issues presented by students.
The meeting went okay and caused me to switch sides: I'm now pro-internalization of Rice student org accounts.
The meeting went okay and caused me to switch sides: I am now against internalization of Rice student org accounts.
The meeting was, as anticipated, nothing but a boxing match between administration and students. A punch here, a punch there, and nothing productive. We're all doomed to Kathy Collins' financial plan.
