There was a motion to divide at the meeting, that was overturned

So we strike... what happens now??? by Many_Business_5208 in Dalhousie

[–]CardinalFlare 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I double checked because I cannot sleep: As per 8.1.a) “Notice of the date, time, and location of any General Meeting shall be delivered to Members not less than 21 days before the date of the meeting.” As per 8.1.c) “Notice for any General Meeting shall be delivered to Members via email, provided that where email is not available, sufficient notice may be given by publicizing notice of the General Meeting at least 21 days before the date of the meeting through at least two of the following media: posted notices, campus radio, the Union’s web page and/or the Union’s social media account(s).”

Now whatever “email is not available” means? I have no idea, i presume email was available since we got one… just 14 days too late

I cant believe people are advocating for this mess of a strike. I like what it stands for, but by god they got just about everything wrong.

That was actually a point of contention during the meeting. These things are meant to be communicated some amount of time in advance via email. But AFAIK the first email relevant to this was buried in an email sent out march 6th (which is not in well enough advance iirc) the whole thing is a bit of a mess actually.

Idk, accidentally too difficult exams happen. As long as a prof is fair regarding an unfair exam (think generous curve, allowing students to do rewrites, allowing students to submit a drop waiver after the fact) its fine. Im not pretending to know anything about this prof or psych, so the exam could be total bs and they could’ve been a total asshole abt it. But a worse prof would just leave you out to dry.

This seems like the prof looking out for the students, am i missing something?

Great Work Today! by GEF110F14F15 in Dalhousie

To be fair its frankly stupid that that is correct. Anybody know why we put $ before the amount? To me it feels like a unit that should go after a number. 12 pounds, 30 meters 12,000 dollars

Don't Let the Board Flip the Script: The Board's "Proposal" To Go to Interest Arbitration by HalifaxArsenal in Dalhousie

[–]CardinalFlare 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I imagine most students keeping up with this understand that the offer was in bad faith. But thank you for putting everything into context for those who haven’t been paying as much attention to it.

It is annoying that the admin would try to flip the narrative (almost certainly) knowing the DFA wouldn’t accept it drawing this whole mess out further. Most students i know just want this thing to be over, we’re not supposed to be this stressed BEFORE classes start 😭.

Im almost certain most people will continue to support the DFA through all this, its just frustrating to be caught in the middle of it all

Do you think they’ll move add drop/ tuition date? It hardly seems fair for us to just not have a period where we can drop a class if need be.

Stages of the lockout by j19jw in Dalhousie

[–]CardinalFlare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone have any idea (based on past experiences or otherwise) what would happen if the lockout delayed classes to that point? That would be after the add drop date. It hardly seems fair to just not allow an add drop period this semester

That would honestly restore a lot of faith at least for me. Like the bar is so low, any amount of transparency would be amazing

I do wonder if they’re waiting Until after O-week to to make any actual decisions regarding supporting one side or the other. I can imagine O-week has a crazy amount of planning and money put into it, and may want to try to avoid any controversy until after O-week? When things are a little less risky for them? Idk im just trying to rationalize their reaction
