WTF: U of R referendum results?

So, as I wrote in my last post, the polls in the University of Regina's referendum on continued membership in the Canadian Federation of Students closed on Thursday night (October 28th). The next day, when the results still hadn't been released, this message appeared on the Referendum Oversight Committee's website.

Then, today, Saturday October 30th 2010, the University of Regina Student Union (URSU) post this message on their Twitter account:

UPDATE: The CFS Referendum results will be released on Monday [November 1st 2010]. If results are provided earlier, we will make sure...

I can only assume that the rest of the sentence goes... This does seem to be quite irregular and may possibly demonstrate a lack of preparedness on the Referendum Oversight Committee. One can only speculate at this moment. I would hope that the ROC's report to be released after the whole referendum process has concluded.

University of Regina's Referendum on Continued Membership in the CFS ends today

Students at the University of Regina will soon find out the fate of their continued membership in the Canadian Federation of Students. Today was the last day for the University of Regina Student Union's (URSU) members to cast their ballots in the referendum on continued membership if the CFS.

More to come...

Is education really a right?

Well, well, well! What do we have here?!? A new "Education is a Right!" spin-off website highly critical of the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS). Some people think that it's a pretty funny site. However, many CFS supporters have already cried foul and say that the people behind this site are hiding behind the anonymity of the Internet. The Excalibur reported on this yesterday. As many of you may not know, the CFS recently launched their new "Education is a Right!" site promoting its campaigns.

Let the war of words and websites begin!

Rencontre publique du Conseil d'Administration de la FÉUO aujourd'hui

Après une réunion remplie de tension entre les spectateurs et les membres du Conseil d'Administration de la FÉUO, Tyler Steeves, le président de la FÉUO, a annoncé une réunion publique. Cette dernière aura lieu au Café Alt entre 14h et 7h afin de discuter des inquiétudes soulignées hier par plusieurs spectateurs lors de la réunion.

Il sera intéressant de voir quels membres du CA décideront de se montrer la face durant cette réunion.
