Our editorial board is all for making political statements and speaking out when there’s a problem but we also understand the importance of supporting our students and athletes.
At FIU, we like to say we’re “Worlds Ahead,” but in the student lives of FIUSM’s editorial board, like many others, we have had experiences and professors who nullify the virtues of diversity and integration that FIU glorifies. Many of us have grown up in a community that has exposed us to many unfamiliar cultures.
For many students, pursuing their education is out of the question without a means to pay for it, making their jobs as critical to their success as their grades.
We hope that by facilitating discussion among the FIU community and by providing a space for honesty and sincerity, FIUSM can assist the students and the University in taking real steps towards change.
