“While listening to the incessant banter and the brain-melting talking points, it can be easy for students to decide to abandon the world of politics all together. For this reason, it is important that college students are presented with positive and constructive political role models.”
“Holding events furthers awareness and discussion on campus and prevents the problems from flying under the radar.”
“It can be easy to forget how students with disabilities are affected on campus, and the Council for Students with Disabilities does Boston College a service in ensuring that the issue is not forgotten.”
“As it continues to face larger and more difficult attempts at policy change, these smaller events help to shape the campus climate and bring about the gradual developments that will hopefully lead to larger changes in the future.”
“Balancing these pressures, the administration has a moral imperative to condemn these hateful actions and not allow the issue to fester.”
“Although there were successful startups at Boston College before these new programs, the Shea Center remains a good use of resources.”
“Much in the way one tenses up before a punch in the stomach, a junior can gather information to be prepared for the rounds of interviewing, resumé-sending, rejection, and acceptance that marks the career search.”
“The administration must acknowledge that what students and alumni call for ought to be considered.”
“Improving sustainability in residence halls, regardless of specific LEED ratings, is a good project for BC that should be continued and expanded.”
“Once the extended hours are brought back in October, University Libraries and the Office and Student Affairs should respond to student demand and consider making the change permanent.”
