The CSU’s VP Sustainability and Promotions has resigned. Morgan Pudwell sent a three page resignation letter via e-mail late Thursday night.
She listed four reasons for the departure. Among them was the allegation of potential financial mismanagement. She pointed to a recent financial update that showed almost every budget had been overdrawn.
She also cited decisions taken concerning the student centre and university governance. Pudwell says that with these decisions, the CSU is acting against the student’s wishes. She also questioned the influence of former CSU president Amine Dabchy on this year’s executive. Dabchy sits on the Board of Governors.
Pudwell says she was silenced by members of the union about her misgivings. She added students must demand effective representation from their student union.
Pudwell is the fourth CSU executive to quit during this school year.
