- Would you support a social action group dedicated to issues of class and/or classism?  Why or why not?
''"No. Such a group would only work to divide students via artificial divisions and class-warfare rhetoric".'' ~ Nick Truesdale, Vice President of Dickinson College Republicans
''"I would definitely support such a group because although I stated earlier that a possible cause for there not being a group dealing with class as the student population on campus not acknowledging class as an issue or problem to be discussed, I personally realize that it very well may be.  Class can be just as alienating and divisive to human beings on a college campus as race but most of the time race is looked to first".'' ~ Rick Raymond, member of the African American Society

Questions

In the survey we asked members of social action groups to answer a series of questions concerning the nature of the types of groups themselves. These are the questions along with students' responses to them. Notice how varied their opinions are!

Question #1 - There are many groups on Dickinson campus dedicated to issues of race and few that deal with gender/sexuality. There are no groups that deal specifically with issues of class. How do you feel about the lack of diversity within Dickinson’s social action groups?


[Question #2] - Would you support a social action group dedicated to issues of class and/or classism? Why or why not?
