Dear gair rhydd,
If one thing has been shown by the recent ‘debate’ about the new Students’ Union building plans, it is not how dedicated students are to their Student Union bar or to the games room.
It’s how little they actually know about their Students’ Union and how uninterested they really are about losing the Taf.
Yes, it’s all well and good for more than 3,000 people to join a Facebook group being outraged about the SU plans but does anyone actually have an opinion apart from outrage.
Facebook is seriously not the right place to discuss changes that will affect the future of Cardiff Students’ Union more than any other change ever.
If students can’t be bothered to take 10 minutes out of their ‘busy’ days to write a proper reasonable opinion on the changes being presented, then what right do we have to be outraged on Facebook.
How many of that 3,000 people came to student council? About 60-70. That’s only double the normal turnout for such a enormous issue.
We care enough to click accept to a group invitation but not to actually have a real opinion on the building plans
