Rubuttal to John Kleinhans

I support the decision to give the SGA executive board the reduced compensation of $500 to three of the executive board members aside from the financial controller. This decision was arrived at after intense debate and discussion on numerous votes to arrive at that number. The final tally was supported by at least 66% of the voting body. It disgusts me that a former student body president, and current VSC elected trustee, would personally call individuals out of a group decision. The entire debate came down to the fact that a promise is a promise, just like the LSC promise, and I am certain that other leaders on this campus are held to a high standard. The executive board members are not an exception. The only person creating drama is the person who chooses to rehash old business. This is not personal, this is strictly business. And the ability to separate the two separates the “toddlers” from the adults.
