| Differences be narrowed |
Have you heard of Oeinsidae? It is the name
of another student group that works for development of HUFS, which differs
from General Students Council (GSC). Recently, they published their newspaper
to let people know them more clearly. Especially, they came out with the
view that raises a question on GSC's way of solving problems on foundation,
so that students' concerns about it would be much increased. At this present
situation, it is being watched with keen interest whether these various
voices would help this urgent, vital matter, reforming the foundation positively.
We often see the sight of the Open Theater in which the event for establishing
public foundation is held with shameful numbers of participants. It is not
an exaggeration that the only small number of students who are belong to
GSC only made real effort to solve the problem so far. So, it is natural
that GSC needs other voices to hold in check with each other. At this point,
Oeinsidae has done the activities on the fields that GSC did not check up.
Then, this time, they came up to students with critical view of the GSC's
activities on reforming foundation. Its appearing with strong feature made
a positive result on some sides. First, Oeinsidae's new proposals made students
more interested in this matter, which was considered as GSC's own, as well
as interest in Oeinsidae itself. Next, active discussions by various groups
can lead to more satisfying result.
The situation seems to be hopeful that we can expect more democratic and
complete way to make our new foundation. However, if these diverse voices
do not develope to the one, cohesive power, it is very dangerous. It may
cause a split among students who have various views. Raising a question
on another voice is good, but what it has to be careful is that the argue
has to be sound criticizing for solving the problem, not just for showing
opposite views to other side. Student groups have no time to waste competing
each other. The spilt among students would be a big obstacle to solve the
matter.
The debate for establishing public foundation and development of HUFS was
held on September 25. The president of GSC, vice-president of GSC of graduate
school and representative of Oeinsidae participated in the meeting as speakers.
It was started with GSC's refuting what was proposed by Oeinsidae.
Both groups expressed their views on the matter one-sidedly which are regarded
as appropriate by their own proof. They could not find solutions to their
differences on the problem. As influential groups represent students' opinions,
their movements are being observed in the future. Each group has to make
efforts as a partner of the other group which runs toward a same goal. They
have to diminish useless differences of standpoint. To make a better result
of our struggle for a new foundation, each efforts of student groups have
to be able to bring valuable fruit to HUFS' future. |
