...think what John and I have really accomplished in the last year is to pave the way for this group to be very successful,” she said, referencing the Haddock-led restructuring that resulted in the purgation of the erstwhile Campus Life Committee (CLC). Reflecting on his tenure as president, Haddock cited the increased diversity of UC representatives and the competitive nature of recent elections as points of pride. Still, he appeared ready to let go. “Hopefully I’ll just be able to sit in the back and let Petersen do his thing...
...should not be blamed for trying to provide student services such as Logan shuttles. However, it should realize (as it did when it cut CLC) that it is not the body that should be operating them. As the elected student government, the UC is in a unique position to facilitate—but not directly provide—a variety of campus-wide student services. Students appreciate having shuttles to the airport, inexpensive cardboard boxes for move-out, and $1 movie nights—all of which the UC used to provide. The UC is a single, central body with...
Looking to get to Logan Airport tomorrow? You’ll have one less option than last year. For the past 15 years, the Undergraduate Council (UC) has provided airport shuttles for Thanksgiving, winter, and spring breaks for $5 per person. Last spring, the Campus Life Committee (CLC), which organized shuttles and a few other student services, was eliminated to create a more streamlined, efficient UC. This decision resulted in the elimination of airport shuttles this school year. We fully supported cutting CLC, but now the UC needs to find a new way to provide a few valuable student services...
...leadership needs to implement a mechanism for arranging student services within the UC’s current two-committee framework. It does not need to bring back the CLC, nor does it need another third arm such as an "Outreach and Services Committee"—an idea which was proposed and rejected last spring. We do not know precisely how the UC ought to handle soliciting and selecting bids from third parties. It could be done by the UC’s Finance Committee (FiCom), or by a FiCom subcommittee, or by the president and vice president themselves...
...structural reform platforms. Gillis advocates expanding the council’s current structure while Hwang supports dissolving all the committees. Haddock and Riley ran on a platform to remove the social programming responsibilities—at the time delegated to the council’s Campus Life Committee (CLC)—from the UC. An unsuccessful Springfest afterparty the previous semester and a failed Wyclef Jean concert that fall fueled campus dissatisfaction with the UC’s involvement in social events, making council reform the major theme in last year’s presidential election...
