Students Urge Trustees to Wait
SLU’s Student Government Association voted unanimously last night to urge the Board of Trustees to postpone any decision on the University News charter. The vote came after an extensive question and answer session, at which several University News staff were present, including Diana Benanti, the student paper’s current editor.
The resolution passed by the SGA does not directly address either the old University News charter or the proposed new charter.
When PubDef reached Benanti for comment following the meeting, she seemed optimistic. When asked what effect she expected the resolution to have, Ms. Benanti said, “If this does get to the Board of Trustees tomorrow, I suspect their vote will be tabled until the board meeting in September.”
