Read the editorial here.

Ross, Trey Pharis and Markos Mendoza co-authored an editorial that gives the lowdown on the V.P. of Student Affairs Elwyn Lee and Faculty Senate pres. Joe Kotarba subverting the democratic process on the fair trade bill and how our fees are paying for a corporation’s coffee shop. The main points, our tuition money pays so that Aramark gets 95% of the profit and there is no democracy or student input on the campus thanks to folks like Lee and Kotarba.
