I was disappointed to note that, in the staff editorial of Dec. 9, The Crimson denigrated Michael A. O'Mary '99, who organized the first student group summit, ran Thanksgiving shuttle buses and did a lot of organizational work for the Institute of Politics' HYPE '96, calling him "unqualified."
The staff then went on to endorse Mark A. Price '98 whose main experience on the council was keeping track of the sound system last year. While Mark did an excellent job watching our speakers, his council experience does not seem to make him any more qualified than the man who put together three of this fall's most successful events. --Stephen E. Weinberg '99 Undergraduate Council finance chair
