&lt;p&gt;“Student feedback and consultation have been dismissed in favour of the desire to move forward with new initiatives at a rapid pace. This has disenfranchised individuals across the faculty who have no longer felt their opinions are valued.”&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jeanie Malone, Jakob Gattinger, Mark Bancroft, Daniel Luo, Quentin Golsteyn and Veronica Knott</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 27 Apr 2017 04:06:20 +0000</pubDate><guid>http://ubyssey.ca/opinion/letter-students-and-staff-need-to-be-consulted-with-changes-to-the-faculty-of-applied-science/</guid></item><item><title>Letter: The Council bylaw changes need to pass</title><link>http://ubyssey.ca/opinion/council-bylaw-changes-need-pass/</link><description>

&lt;p&gt;I want to address to concerns about the move to 3,000 people. I want to start by highlighting that I don&amp;#x27;t understand the arbitrary nature of this argument. Why is 3,000 not a good cut-off, but 1,500 is?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Veronica Knott</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Mar 2017 07:07:58 +0000</pubDate><guid>http://ubyssey.ca/opinion/council-bylaw-changes-need-pass/</guid></item><item><title>Letter: Thank You, Free Speech Club</title><link>http://ubyssey.ca/opinion/letter-thank-you-free-speech-club/</link><description>

This is our effort to decode the topics that we think you should know and care about.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Aaron Bailey and Veronica Knott</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 21 Sep 2016 14:26:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>http://ubyssey.ca/opinion/whats-on-the-board-september-21-/</guid></item></channel></rss>
