LETTER TO THE EDITOR | Biased election article
While reading through (last) week’s Collegian, I was shocked with how the election was handled. I realize there wasn’t much lead time and the president won the election, but the article was incredibly one-sided. I look at the front page of the newspaper as the “News” section.

My favorite week…
