From the table
Can’t really say if Senate is more exciting from the perspective of the table. Thanks for asking, Sen. Feldman. I suppose the vicious tension that exists in the ASUO becomes more apparent when at the table. Passive aggressiveness coats just about everything spoken by anyone.
“Soccer is the real Futbol” came in for a special request…they are a new group, and it seems that new groups are tinderboxes waiting to light for the ASUO (please refer to VFSA’s PFC meetings). Soon after “Soccer is the real Futbol” went through with the request, Senate President Athan Papailiou made a comment about how difficult it was for new groups to get started, and how long it took them to get budgets. It seems like special requests from surplus might be a good occasional alternative to unfunded groups.
Vice-President San SunOwen used the opportunity to jump on Athan’s back once again and call him out for being “hypocritical”. Athan may just have to start facing the possibility that he is, indeed, a hypocrit. And a racist. And…I’d continue on but I don’t want to give Vincent alcohol poisoning. $20 says ODE Reporter Robert D’Andrea at least quotes San’s rant or even puts a full text of her rant in his next article.
Senator Billy Hatch also called Athan unprofessional for mentioning his drunken behavior in Senate last week, without Billy being present. Not quite clear on who’s fault it was that Billy stormed out. But seeing as everybody seems to blame Athan for just about anything, I’ll go ahead and venture that he was responsible for that, too.
“Unprofessional” seemed to be the buzz word of the meeting tonight.
