UPDATE: Has it ever been “your” Student Assembly?

Posted in The Burg Also Rises by Nick Fitzgerald on the September 7th, 2008

Just so I am completely clear with everyone who reads or hears about my previous post regarding Katie Dixon’s (’09) piece in The Flat Hat:

I did not intend to insinuate that Valerie Hopkins (’09) or Zach Pilchen (’09) put Katie Dixon up to writing her op-ed; rather, I found the fact that she failed to mention she was both a Pilchen and Hopkins appointee to be an egregious and very relevant omission. I apologize completely for attempting to insinuate anything other than this point. I do not believe — and, furthermore, have no evidence to support the idea — that either Mr. Pilchen OR Ms. Hopkins had Ms. Dixon write this piece for either of their benefit, and if it came across otherwise, I am sorry.

I believe that the rest of my argumentation — that regarding her attempted moral equivalency between students’ apathy towards the SA and Mr. Pilchen’s misappropriations — is still clear and fact-based, and I stand by it completely.

    Are you the same Fitzgerald that makes all those posts on Flat Hat’s website? I hope not: I think it is very ridiculous to comment over there when you have a whole website to write whatever you want here. Makes you look petty. Otherwise, I like your articles.
