Town Hall Meeting - Shaping the Future and Shipping Us Out


Thursday, March 25, 2010
Time:
7:00am - 8:00am
Location:
MSU Union, Multicultural Center
Why you were sleeping they were creeping and they stole from you! The administration is moving like a thief in the night to trim the budget, and shockingly the fat in our system has come in the form of students of color. O, how the CAAP office has changed my life, don't those OCAT Aides make the transition process almost effortless, isn't the office of Cultural and Academic Transitions a pivotal resource for you - THEN NOW IS THE TIME TO SPEAK UP AND SPEAK OUT! 
The final decision of whether or not these and countless other services are needed is steadily approaching; if not for you, then think of the next generation of spartans to walk upon this campus with no support system for the needs, academic interests, and social interests of students of color.
