Student Spotlight: Perspective on the Student Forum
This past Monday, February 21st, President Herbert held a forum open for the student body to discuss the upcoming schedule change and concerns students have. We interviewed Kyle Bshara, who was able to attend the event heard his opinion.
Q: Who are you and what is your opinion on the upcoming schedule change?
A: My name is Kyle Bshara, I’m a sophomore at UNE with a major in aquaculture. I personally am not the biggest fan of the schedule change.
Q: Did you feel like the Student Forum with President Herbert was effective in communicating the concerns of the student body with administration?
A: I felt like the student forum with President Herbert was effective in communicating the concerns of the student body. I feel like our thoughts were listened to by the administration, but I definitely think that another forum should be held.
Q: Have your feelings on the schedule change been impacted since the forum on Monday?
A: My feelings on the schedule change have not been impacted since the forum on Monday. Although I prefer my Fridays light, I do understand the other viewpoints on a free day in the middle of the week. I also do agree, on the other hand, that many peers of mine need to work and do internships on Fridays.
