...improve social life while preventing underage drinking, they must work with students to find a meaningful solution instead of threatening and admonishing the student body and their elected leaders. Unfortunately, this incident is far from an isolated event. In fact, it seems like just the latest in a trend of University Hall putting the appearance of propriety before a pragmatic approach to student safety and being completely dismissive of student input. Last spring’s new alcohol policy was similarly forced on students; canceled meetings, secret reports, and withheld information have become the norm. Students are making a genuine...

For columns that appear to be taking the “black side,” they are oddly similar to the ones that don’t. The dismissals claim that blacks are irrationally supporting Vick because they want to make excuses for one of their own (and that’s just what they do).
