Now how can a positive orga
nization that has existed on this
campus for over 10 years be deni
grated so quickly and carelessly?
Maybe the University and College
Station Police were not prepared
for the influx of 4,000 people un
affiliated with the conference
Saturday night.
Or maybe, because some stu
dents exhibit little tolerance for a
common event occurring in an
unlikely setting.
There was no riot, there was an
altercation during a party. Further
more, neither Channel 3 nor The
Battalion reported on the positive
events surrounding the confer
ence. Maybe The Battalion just
wanted to be fair and ignore the
conference altogether.
Sheri Teinert explained that on
Saturday her on-campus driving
was impeded by a “march.” I’d bet
participants were walking to the
conference luncheon at Duncan
Dining Hall. I’d also bet that this
looked no different than before
and after a football game..
Twelve hundred students
came to this year’s conference.
Violence is bad for the parties as
sociated with it, however SBSLC
promotes and develops leader
ship. I urge students to explore all
sides of an issue before jumping
to conclusions that could be
detrimental to an extremely help
ful and motivational program.
