I find it alarming that Patrick Reimherr is so willing to actively push a fee increase without proven student support. If, as he says, broad student support does exist, then he ought to have no problem with a general referendum on the issue. In response to his argument that such a referendum would be unconstitutional, I question the constitutionality of his approaching the Board of Trustees with an initiative prior to its being passed by elected student senators and representatives.

Thanks go to Sens. Kasi Goodwin and Ali Amundsen for researching the issue and doing their best to educate us.
