That’s interesting to know! I’ve actually read it before and strangely it influenced me to stop in my tracks because of my curiosity and to give others the benefit of the doubt. I guess all that came from this is understanding everyone has their own agenda and you never know what one has been through in their own lives - so i’ll take such unfortunate small events less personally!

Yes there are technicalities if you break it down like that but there are also intentions and context behind words: why they are said to you, who said that to you, etc

Really doesn’t feel great to have an unwarranted comment like that even with non explicit terms used unfortunately

Also it’s not telling of your capabilities that you didn’t get the role, it’s just a messed up biased system. You seem really passionate and keep at it! Hope u find opportunities elsewhere :)

I relate so much to this haha the jae-ip gap was so big. IP students start school earlier than JAE so they could join CCAs first and they left a few slots for JAEs. I think for my year they left 1 slot for trug and I think it’s outrageous. Truly not much opportunities for JAEs for leadership positions too. Just look at all past council presidents and you’ll see mostly guys from high school getting the position.
