These are just a few of the issues and there are many more. We will compile the top issues and print them in The Poly. And of course we will go into action! In fact, we are already making progress on many of the issues, but we still need your help.

If your club, organization, team, fraternity, or sorority would like a senator or myself to stop by at a meeting or event to gather student feedback, please e-mail either me at gm@rpi.edu or Senate-listens@rpi.edu to set up a time. You can always send your feedback directly, as well.

Finally, today from 2-4 pm in the Greene Building second floor gallery, the post-September 11 STS committee will be hosting a forum on civil liberties. The forum promises to be extremely insightful and a great opportunity to discuss the issues surrounding our new day and time.
