TO THE EDITOR:
I have never really believed the common sentiment that the student body and the Greek system have been engaged in a perpetual war, but this student body election has shown me just how divided our school is.
Will Lindsey was far and away the best student body president candidate in terms of experience, platform content and specific plans for the school.
During this entire process, Lindsey was fighting an uphill battle, from puzzling endorsements to incredibly biased coverage — especially from the DTH.
From your reporting, I would have thought Will was an unintelligent, incompetent frat star devoid of any real concern for serving UNC.
I am frustrated and disappointed in my student body. Why are we actively discouraging Greek involvement in student government and campus activity?
Shouldn’t we be embracing any and all interest and participation from all UNC students?
Is it not contradictory to preach inclusion while continually vilifying one of the most dedicated student representatives at our University because of one organization he is a part of that people may not support?
How do we intend on being a united Carolina and advocate for ourselves at the state and federal level if we can’t even support one another?
