Ok, so the recent flame war going on between the Red and Black and Socialist Governing Authority (SGA) is because of the USA Today Collegiate Readership Program (CRP, or CRaP). The CRaP is why those crappy-looking white bins (photos later) have been placed around campus, and are always empty.
The Red and Black is (rightly) worried that their ad revenue is going to go down with more CRaP newspapers around campus. So the R&B is in the current war with SGA, as seen on their opinions page.
What about a cover-up?
The Red and Black has recently filed their second open records act (yeah I know, what the hell is this, I can’t even tell you) request of SGA, says someone close to the Red and Black. The first was on President Jamie Pepper and VP Matt Snoody (jointly known as “Shake” and “Bake”), where the R&B requested their correspondence with others relating to CRaP work (which is about everything they have done since getting elected). UGA and the Socialist Governing Authority did comply with the request, and now the R&B has served “Shake” and “Bake” with a second open records request (possibly occured on Tuesday).
Here is where the CRaP hits the newspaper bin. The R&B wants to know about SGA’s budget over the past couple of years.
Why?
Who knows what the big bad Red and Black wants out of this. Could be because SGA is using their money to fund the CRaP (does anybody actually know where that money came from, or did USA Today pay for all of those god awful looking bins). Or it could be the Students Gambling Association used their budget improperly.
But again, this is speculation. Hopefully someone knows where the Suckers Gambling Anonymously has spent our student activity fees. Has anyone seen an SGA budget recently?
