I could care less the race, gender, religion etc of a person in any field or job except our Mountaineer mascot. But the two homecoming queens in the fall and now today's announcement just looks like we're trying too hard. Just let it happen don't make it happen that's all I'm saying.

Yeah and it makes me laugh when a dude is all outspoken for womans rights lol. Like im sure they really do feel that way and I feel that way, but man its tryin tooooo hard.
I love joe rogan podcast. One guy on there said something like i would really like to see first woman president or something like that. Rogan was like, oh god, here we go, u go boy, earn those woke points. Lol

Maybe, or maybe they simply ran a better campaign than the other tickets or made sure the other students who supported them actually voted. I don't assume to know how it all went down.

What I find divisive is this was the highlight of the announcement.

“The pair represent the first female-minority ticket to win an SGA presidential election.”

Some are still trying to categorize people. Its 2022. I think most people couldn’t care less if they are women or minority. Congrats to them. Let’s more past all these stupid categories. It just divides us more. But, as some would say, that is the ultimate the goal of certain folks. To divide.

Congrats to the winners. Represent the University and student body with class.

They were elected by the students.
Yes but the students are victims of CRT reeducation. If not, they would have been patriots and elected a white male like God intended.

I am a proud woman and I believe someone like Nicki Haley would make an outstanding President. She has qualifications for the job and not because she is female. However, I believe the Mountaineer is a man with a beard. I would have been an outstanding Mountaineer mascot as my mouth would rock the stadium but there are some things that need to stay tradition. She could be Ms. Mountaineer or Mountain Mama or whatever but a Mountaineer is a man with a naturally grown beard. JMO

He also may close it out with..."Look, I got a bunch of black friends..."
I do have a lot of black friends . That was a typically idiotic comment from you. My Neice is hispanic and a wonderful member of my family that I love dearly. My point again is let it happen don't make it happen and when it does don't make it the feature point of the news article.

Exactly. In a color blind sexist free society this story would be the exact same story minus the words minority and female.

We should celebrate the fact the students got to elect their SGA reps.

I happen to know 2 students elected to the Senate.
Both give me hope for the future of WVU and WV (provided they stay here, which is not a given since both are really smart).
It doesn't matter to me what race they are...they're leaders in my book.

I bet you a million dollars if they are really smart they probably graduate and leave. It actually happens a lot.

The fact that it's a "first" is newsworthy and should be included in the article. You'd have a fair point if they weren't breaking any ground.

Why is it newsworthy? We're they elected because they are women or minorities or were they elected because they are the best (in the eyes of the students/voters).

I mean I don't really care. I am happy for them and they seem highly qualified but it isn't newsworthy that women or minorities are qualified to do jobs. They do it every day in all walks of life.

but that means race is important. It shouldnt be. I grew up believing race doesn’t matter but recently it has become evident it is incredibly important. Be careful what you wish for.

edit. This isn’t a commentary on the sag as I think are all d bags anyway. In this case women minority d bags.

I think most people don’t know the diff between a prejudiced person and a racist one.

….and fail to recognize the every single person in this world is at least prejudice.

Sometimes, college acts like real life. Hate to report this but they were caught breaking campaign rules. They were campaigning at an active election site and also actively campaigned where alcohol was served. They admitted to the violations and sent out an apology for both charges and nothing was done. Those who lost were not happy as they followed the rules.

On a side note, one of the organizations that they lead, the members asked for the national organization to come in and audit their activity due to their perception (or reality) of favoritism and lack of following national organizational protocols.

Thanks. That gives it some context. Yeah, I'd be pissed too.

So being from Morgantown and Lourton, VA qualifies someone as a minority? My how the definitions have changed
