Current Activites
We are currently working to prepare for our November 7th meeting with Bill Elliott, Vice-President of Enrollment at Carngie-Mellon. Before that meeting we plan to:
- Collect petition signatures from students and faculty
- Request resolutions supporting opening the books from the student and faculty senates
- Arrange for media coverage of the meeting and its results
- Meet with staff unions to seek their support in opening the books
If you would like to become involved in this campaign or want further information please don't hesitate to contact the PSA.
