But as CUSA moves into full damage-control mode, a student coalition is forming on campus to impeach CUSA president Brittany Smyth and councillor Donnie Northrup, the student who wrote the controversial motion to scrap Shinerama in favour of "a new broad-reaching charity."

Coun. Kailey Gervais circulated a petition calling for Smyth and Northrup's resignations, and collected more than 500 signatures in two hours.

According to CUSA policy, 1,250 signatures are needed to impeach Smyth, while 90 science students are required to sign the petition to force Northrup, who represents the faculty of science, from office.

seems appropriate.

Students say disease not 'inclusive' enough

I quote:

The Carleton University Students' Association has voted to drop a cystic fibrosis charity as the beneficiary of its annual Shinearama fundraiser, supporting a motion that argued the disease is not "inclusive" enough.

Cystic fibrosis "has been recently revealed to mainly affect Jews" said the motion read on Monday night to student councillors, who voted almost unanimously in favour of it.

what a sad day for "higher education".

🙁

Fixed

Antisemitism - they hate the Jews 🙁

Approximately 1 in 25 people of European descent and 1 in 22 people of Ashkenazi Jewish descent is a carrier of a cystic fibrosis mutation. Although CF is less common in these groups, approximately 1 in 46 Hispanics, 1 in 65 Africans and 1 in 90 Asians carry at least one abnormal CFTR gene.
