Ryan ChartrandBenjamin,
As vice president of Students for Justice and Peace in the Middle East, I don’t appreciate your slander. A well-informed person would have attended ALL of our events before accusing us of such things as “teaching hate.” I did not see you at our peace discussion of more than 40 students with professor Stephen Lloyd-Moffet on Wednesday, where he praised us for encouraging discussion.
My personal goal as vice president is to get people to leave with questions, not answers. I also recognize there are members in this club with strong postions that come from personal experiences. I think that students at Cal Poly are intelligent enough to judge the information and any bias it may contain from members of this club when engaged in a discussion. This club is in it its second year, still trying to define itself, therefore respectful criticism should be directed to the officers and members. At least that’s what someone would do who was more interested in peace than being divisive.
