Who cares about the WSA?
No gods, No masters – Daniel Guerin I don’t know if anybody really cares about the WSA. I definitely shouldn’t care about the WSA, especially now. Nevertheless, I need to say: 1. The WSA does not represent. Almost nobody votes for the WSA; those who “win” their respective “races” are voted in by a tiny minority, most likely an extended group of friends/facebook buddies. And often, the WSA bypasses this “democratic” process and just appoints people. And like any pre-college student council regime, did people really vote for their “representatives” actually wanting them to “represent?” Or thinking they could “represent?” (how is it exactly that you “represent” me?) 1.5. I want to quickly clarify: I’m not talking about WSA Workers here, though there may be a little overlap. 2. The WSA has no power. It can do administrative things that save the university money and labor; like having students discipline other students (at this private school, would administrators really do anything worse?)
