Quote:
"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic."
-- Benjamin Franklin
Key Issues:
A Better NCSU Judicial System
- Increase the Burden of Proof
- Allow Effective Counsel
- Eliminate Draconian Consequences
- Create More Opportunities for Redemption
- Take Asinine Rules/Laws off the Books
- Make the Public Defender Relevant

"Students make mistakes, it's simply a part of life. But the problem is when small, trivial things end up threatening careers."

A Better NCSU Budget
- No More "Mary Easleys"
- Decrease Student Fees
- Effective Budget Utilization
- Eliminate Wasteful Spending

"They demanded a student fee increase last year and then promptly gave Mary Easley a $80,000 raise with virtually no change in her job description. Wasteful spending? Certainly. A stab in students' backs? Oh, most definitely."

A Better Athletic Program
- To be Blunt, Fire Lee Fowler

"We're paying this guy boatloads of cash and all we've received is one of the worst athletic performances in NC State history. I guarantee you there's somebody better and would even do it for less. At the very least, let's go in a new direction."

A Better NCSU
- No to Women's Only Hours at Carmichael

"Women's only hours are unnecessary and sexist. They are the result of bowing to religious intolerance to the interaction of the sexes and have no public demand."

- No to Unisex Bathrooms in Current Buildings

"Building unisex bathrooms in current buildings is a waste of money and serves no purpose other than to help the 'mentalities' of just a few individuals. The money would be better spent on gasoline and keeping our student fees low. That said, if it remains cost effective to implement them in future building plans, there should be no objection."

- Going Green -- Effectively

"Protecting the environment is imperative to us and future generations. But it has to be done with the least amount of economic impact -- and that means keeping our student fees low."
