RUtv for RSU and RSme
This week, my pals and I decided to hit up a good ol' fashioned RSU Semi-Annual General Members Meeting. However, it wasn't just to take in a hearty amount of post-secondary politics and free food. We attended in support of RUtv, a brand new student-run television station hitting the airwaves at Ryerson in the next few months.
I chatted with a couple members of the station's executive team. They've been looking for some funding to get their operation off the ground, so they asked the RSU for $17,000, to which we replied, "Sure."
Also, Ashley voted!
Mmmm.
Smell that?
That's democracy.
Sweet university student union democracy.
Feel free to take a look at RUtv's official website to find out how you can get involved.

I've been following this RUTV thing for the past few months. If the school isn't wiling to fund it, and if RSU isn't willing to fund it the project should just not move forward. There is definitely value in the project for RTA students no doubt, but televisions and infrastructure cost money. If we can't afford it, we do without it.
