Words, words, words.

Now that you've had some time to chew on the facts about how UCCS and CU report their budgets and are accountable, both to the state and themselves, as well as the depressing facts about the level of higher education funding in Colorado, can you tell me what the purpose is of this resolution?

Increase) Revised on 3.19

This document takes no action as everything stipulated in the document is already taking place. It does not make a particular stance as "concerns and reservations" are not defined. (And, I certainly don't need this document to tell me that I'm a student advocate. I'm a US citizen and can voice my concerns and reservations anytime I want, plus the SGA Constitution and Bylaws already tell me that as a SGA representative, I am expected to be an advocate for the students.)  This resolution is, in fact, just words.

While I was in Denver at the capitol working as a CU and higher education advocate, SGA leaders and leaders-elect stayed behind to present and pass these words at the SGA Senate. Besides Clyde, I was the only current UCCS student in attendance. However, I did meet many student government representatives and students from all the other CU campuses. Why is this impotent document so much more important than actually representing UCCS student needs to CU and government officials?

I don't know about you, but I think it actually takes doing something in order to get something done.
