Reader callsfor SGA resignation

The Loquitur can hardly be called a nonbiased newspaper anymore. The paper has become an outlet for one of its editors, see sports editor Alexis Strizziere personal attack on me in the Nov. 22 issue.

Miss Strizziere will not suffer any recourse•for ha attack on me, even though submission letter to the Loquitur specittcalty say that personal attacks will not be printed. After aU, she is a journalist, freedom of speech; though I think the ACLU might disagree. I was very incensed to see Miss Strizziere article. Firstly. I was solicited by Paul Wdliams for an opinion on student organizations and I gave a personal one. The SGA is useless. Peopleshould be able to give an opinion without fear of attack. Was the statement bogus" as Strizziere said? Well, who knows? In her entire attack piece on me she failed to state what the SGA does. Strizziere said, , was ashamed to admit that the student that made the comment about the 'useless SGA' is a human being let alone a student."

Well f'm sorry to tell you, but I am a human being, even though you have tried to degrade me with your malicious and semiincoherent attacks. You insult me as a human being. Strizziere calls my understanding an "ignorant'' one. And that it would "behoove" me to reconsider my opinion. Well I thought about my opinion long and hard. As president of the SGA, you have no integrity. You say you try to help students like me. WHAT?

You mock me, you deny me the right to an opinion because it does not agree with your own, and you degrade this institution by being a member of it. You personally attack me in a poorly written article. yet you fail to mention. if anything. what the SGA does. Why would I want to come to a 10 p.m. meeting. convenient since l'm a commuter, forthe SGAif I badto dealwith peoplelike you? Any president thatresortsto attackson fellow studentsdoes not bclcm8 in this school and certainly should not be able to ~laim tblltshe is the class president of our institution. How dare you personally attackme to llllke up for you OlpDimions own·deficiencies!

You and your USELESS SGA have enacted nodung that bu belpe4 studmds like me. I am not alone in my views on tbe SGA. Your article provesthatan intelligent person. such as .1, • could never become SGA president. Your vicious and hurtful attacks have shown what kind of person becomes student class president. Strizzierc is a disgrace to our institution; these kinds of attacks should not be allowed, especially in our school newspaper.

Who allows these attacksto be printed? I was told thatthe onlythingl could do was writea response. Strizzierehas abused her privilege of writing for the paper. A leaderdoes not attack and resort to name-calling; Alexis Strizziere is not a leader or a writer. Alexis,I ask that you resign as student class president. Every person in this institution should be ashamedthatyou representthem. I asswneyou will not resign. 1herefore next semester I am startinga petition to ensure thatyou leavethatoffice. Also, you should apologize for your attackson me. Students!I ask you to join my campaign to oust Strizziere, tell her you do not want her as class president anymore, sign my petition.

I know I could do a better job as SGA president Strizziere believes that she actually does things for us and that I could not do better. l take Strizziere 's challenge. If I were running the SGA I would accomplish something for you. the student body without personally attacking people.
