We Welcome Support From All Over Kingston and from Queen's Alumni
This
issue extends far beyond the neighbourhood immediately surrounding
Queen's University. It is a Kingston-wide issue. Beyond Kingston, it is
an issue that reaches all Queen's alumni concerned about the reputation
of a great university.
Even
before launching this website, we were hearing citizens from Bayridge,
from Pittsburgh, from Kingscourt, expressing in various forms their
frustration and revulsion with the attitude of entitlement that many
Queen's students display. We heard concerns about the hundreds of
thousands of taxpayer dollars being wasted on ineffective policing of
Queen's Homecoming street parties, noisy Frosh Week house parties, and
more.
We sense that there is a
deep, simmering anger throughout our city. We sense that many
citizens from all over Kingston feel enough is enough. They feel that now
it is time for action. For starters, Queen's University must enforce its Student Code of Conduct regarding illegal consumption and sale of alcohol--something that from what we can see, Queen's has substantially failed to do.
SONAG
seeks and welcomes support for all
over Kingston. In addition, we welcome support
from Queen's Alumni who are
concerned about what is happening to the reputation of their University. Working together, we are
going to press actively for
change. The status quo is simply not acceptable. Talk to your friends
and associates and give them our website address or send them a link to this website. Spread the word. Contact us today.
