The ASUO representatives who attended the finance retreat need to pay back the incidental fees used. I find the new self-punishment that makes no attempt to replace the fees to be void of merit. The ASUO representatives have broken the trust placed in them by misusing the fees. They are breaking the trust again by refusing to follow through on their earlier commitment.
Clearly the self-punishment process has not worked. Their failure to adequately take responsibility raises significant questions of whether ASUO representatives are able to successfully fulfill their appointed duties. The first step to rebuilding trust is to replace all incidental fees used for the retreat. If they don’t, I encourage all fellow students to vote out the current ASUO representatives in the coming election and show them that integrity matters.
