Global Council announces projects, goals for year ahead

The Global Student Council announced its goals and projects for the 2009-10 school year at the Project Launch Fair yesterday, emphasizing its desire to obtain increased financial aid for international students. GSC President Batkhuu Dashnyam said the council plans to focus strongly on obtaining need-based financial aid for students. "Financial aid and affordability are two of the biggest factors for students," Dashnyam said, adding that the absence of financial aid for international students can potentially prevent the University from gaining a number of high-caliber students, future alumni and donors. Dashnyam, who has been spearheading the organization's financial aid initiative since fall 2007, said the GSC has made significant gains in recent years. "In the last few years, we've seen lots of engagement with administration," Dashnyam said.

College ACB raises concerns

The College Anonymous Confession Board, a Web site commonly known as College ACB, has recently raised concerns on Grounds. Even though a number of potentially derogatory posts, such as sorority rankings and racial slurs, have been noted on the site in the past, a recent list of possibly gay students heightened tensions among several University community members, especially those listed on the board. The College ACB site consists of student-run message boards composed entirely of anonymous posts in which students can both comment and vote on the messages of other posters from their colleges. “It’s basically just to promote a student controlled space where people can say whatever they want without fear of social backlash,” said Peter Frank, current owner of College ACB and freshman at Weslyean University.
