College should be about arguing with those around us. It's about being challenged and growing. I'm sorry I missed the electioneering opportunity to confront Republicans, Democrats, and Greens on ballot-box social change fallacies. But alas, I was too timid. Not so anymore.
Civility is for politicians.
Christopher Mitchell is a junior and regular columnist. As FAC Chair, I feel that at this time, now that all the money issues have been settled, that I raise my voice to bring about some closure to it all. However, it is equally important that we also move beyond simply a discussion on finances and put things in a better perspective. Though it was not possible for me to have an accurate number for how much money was left in the 9200 account, I should have provided them with a better estimate. I ran as FAC chair because I felt that in the past the very strict and unsupportive atmosphere that FAC had acquired not only went against what should be the Macalester spirit, and not only did little good for student organizations, but also hampered the effectiveness and potential of MCSG as a whole.
