Undergraduate Council members argued over issues ranging from new plans for the Harvard-Yale tailgate to amendments to the council??€™s constitution at a heated meeting last night...
Aaron D.

And, while that’s a good start, the council really needs to do more to facilitate representative-student relationships. Meeting a random sampling of five students isn’t nearly as effective as perhaps coordinating with HoCos to plan events where students could meet...
