ASUA is working hard to fix kinks

Well, Mr. Frantzman is at it again in his Thursday letter. His endless stream of criticism stretches even from beyond the shores of this country. Seth describes the cancellation of CatKraze with such vigor that one would expect to see the "arrogant" and "profiteering" student representatives dancing with glee around a pile of money that they had snatched away from tuition.
