Left Meets Right

She says she hopes to forge stronger bonds between student groups and the council.

"One of the things we want to work on is getting student groups involved," Redmond says. "I'm very involved in student group life on campus. The problem now is all we do is hand out checks, and that's ridiculous."

Seton and Redmond are seeking greater involvement in this year's Springfest from extracurricular organizations and House Committees.

And, on council, they hope for greater participation as well.

"It's very easy for a lot of these issues to be handled by me and Kamil...and the average U.C. member doesn't have a stake in it," Seton says. "The people on SAC [the council's Student Affairs Committee] on these advocacy issues need to be more involved."

But these council insiders are used to taking charge.

"We've been around," Seton says. "We've had some obligations before. Now it's just more. Life is pretty much the same as it was before."

But now, their work has a higher profile.

"People know who I am, people start to say `hi,'" Redmond says. "It's a lot of e-mail."

The higher profile has its disadvantages as well.

"People like to complain to us," Seton jokes. "It's remarkable how much more they complain to us now." Kamil E. Redmond '00 History and Literature and Women's Studies Concentrator Pforzheimer House Philadelphia, PA
