UISG Should Focus On Transparency

Now that the new UISG leaders have been elected, and the lives of students are no longer filled with campaigning, things are settling down at Iowa. This may all be good, but what we must be sure to do is not forget the ideas of this campaign.

One theme was prevalent in all platforms - creating a student government that is more open and transparent to the students. Our student government should be easy to learn about by our students, and it should be clear in it's goals. Students should be able to find meeting minutes and agendas online, with videos and documents to accompany. Iowa can have a student government that is transparent and easy to understand, with any student being able to find out what they are working on.
