Brian Cauley live at Morrisson Hall...yes, the place where even the future of the food being served is in question. Connors/Matheson and MacGillivray/Clarke are here and they have a stance on just about every issue on campus. While students are here, eating, they are being given the opportunity for students to ask the candidates questions before they head to the polls tomorrow.
"It' all about U," MacG & Clarke open with. Clarke does much of the talking while MacGillivray stares into the crowd without a smile. "We're here to make a difference," MacGillivray chimes in. The two deliver a speech that clearly screams "we want votes," and which demonstrates the candidates ability to read off of a page.
Connors and Matheson begin with the same shpeal of introducing themselves through personal history. While giving a much more introverted speech than MacGillivray and Clarke (demonstrating Connors and Matheson's self-confidence) the two still read off of a page rather than just engaging the crowd. "I am running because I believe in the Union," Connors remarks strongly. These two seem much more confident than MacG and Clarke.
I wish that all of the candidates just dropped their walls and spoke to the students. We'll see if this changes as the questions come in...
