CSU Council officially condemns SPVM at Mcgill on Nov 10, will have SGM on corruption

CSU Council met yesterday with several important topics on the agenda.

Right off the bat they voted in favour of a statement condemning the actions of the police on November 10^th at Mcgill. The CSU says riot police acted excessively when kicking students off campus. 

Council also voted to have a Special General Meeting next week to discuss allegations of corruption in the CSU. Chair of the Judicial Board Ceejay Desfosses and CSU President Lex Gill are accused in the appeal of being in collusion.

Also at the meeting, Councillor Bruno Joyal suggested translating by-laws into French to incorporate Francophone students. But the motion was rejected with President Gill suggesting that translation would be too costly. 

Councillor Anali Lee-Ender proposed changes to the controversial Cultural Nights. She said Resident Assistants were complaining about reckless and drunk students who returned from these CSU events. VP Student Life Laura Glover who is in charge of the event on the CSU's behalf welcomed the criticism and said they are exploring new ways of making the event more safe, but have no plans to cancel them at this time.
