Student Senate reporting needs to be more representative of Senate's business. Wednesday's article referencing the call for Senate President Kellie Dale's resignation was an example of irresponsible journalism; a higher degree of integrity needs to be used when reporting on senate meetings.
The call for resignation was an attempt to undermine the progress of the Student Senate and in no way the focal point of the meeting. The meeting included a resolution honoring Army veteran Jonathon Cote and also funded two new student groups.
Members of the Orange and Blue Party have made a habit of engaging in partisan politics instead of focusing on measures that will benefit the students. These actions are detrimental to Student Government's mission of serving the student body and need to cease in order for the Student Senate to carry out its duties.
The few bipartisan efforts undertaken have produced great things and this should continue. Our duty as senators is to better the experience of each student at the University of Florida.
