An MUSG Senate turnaround? Senators finally go out and talk the students

Posted on 06 November 2008 by Molly Petitjean

During the Senate meeting on October 23, 2008, something crazy happened: the Senators were required to talk to some of their constituents for 30 minutes before the meeting proceeded with normal business. In fact, I was interviewed by Senator Stopka during this period. Many of the questions prepared were the same questions I asked my [...] Continue Reading

Be the difference: Go vote on Nov. 4th

Posted on 23 October 2008 by Molly Petitjean

In case you missed it, we have a Presidential election on our hand, folks! Around this time, it’s common to hear political and idealist debates going on about who is the best candidate, what party ideal is the best, and ever funny Ralph Nader joke or two. I want to stop all of [...] Continue Reading

The consensus is… the Senate is failing

Posted on 09 October 2008 by Molly Petitjean

As wrote about in my last column, MUSG punishes its Senate members by making them actually talk to the people they represent. How many? 25. So, is talking to 25 students really a punishment? Not really. It actually should be their duty and goal to talk to 25 people [...] Continue Reading

New MUSG Beatwriter: Senate say what?

Posted on 24 September 2008 by Molly Petitjean

Today, sadly, we end an era. Joseph Schuster is no longer writing the MUSG Beat column for “The Warrior.” To fill this void and ensure MUSG is held accountable to the Marquette student body, I will gladly pick up where he left off. After Schuster was offered a position within the Senate as representative for the [...] Continue Reading

A working president, a broken MUSG

Posted on 16 April 2008 by Joseph Schuster

President Ray Redlingshafer is working to make his campaign promises a reality. He has been agreeing to meet with newspaper writers and bloggers, opening up a line of communication to the Marquette student body that a few weeks ago was nonexistent. More impressive though is what Ray has done as President, only being on the [...] Continue Reading

Should there be a student on the board of trustees? Fact box

Posted on 16 April 2008 by Staff

The current Board of Trustees consists of 32 members. Some, like Glenn Rivers are alumni. Others are Jesuits, some are faculty, and still more are people unassociated with Marquette but have been asked to help run it based on their past business experience. Some colleges, such as the University of Massachusetts, have one or more students [...] Continue Reading

Congratulations to Ray Redlingshafer and Kathleen Blaney as the new Marquette University Student Government President and Executive Vice President. Believe it or not, there will be a change in the way that MUSG does business next year as a result of this election. As a general rule, MUSG for the past few years has been [...] Continue Reading

Do Marquette students need to pay an activity fee? Yes

Posted on 13 March 2008 by Ivan Ambriz

College is usually an interesting time for most students. While some may get down to business and study hard all four years, others try to find a balance between studying and having a fun in such a social atmosphere throughout their time in school. As incoming freshmen, we all remember that first invoice we received [...] Continue Reading

Do Marquette students need to pay an activity fee? No

Posted on 13 March 2008 by Joseph Schuster

The necessity of the student activity fee is one of the greatest myths imposed on the students at Marquette. Students pay $54 for relatively nothing at all. Students are forced to pay this fee, and it is essentially a tax that is levied on each of the approximately 8,000 undergraduate students at Marquette. Popularity: 11% [?] Continue Reading
