BOGers. [View all]

Thank you BOG.

I have met so many amazing people at DU. On GD and most importantly the BOG.

You are amazing. There is a wealth of information that is posted here. It encompasses education, global warming, Obamacare, the economy, VAWA, gay rights, women's rights and so many more issues that demand our focus.

The important word here, is that we focus. We do not become fixated on one issue. Will change happen at a snap of the finger, no it will not. Will we have to take baby steps to make things happen, yes sometimes we do. Change does not happen overnight. If you believe that you do not understand the true history of this nation. You must stand up to be heard every single day. We are fighting battles for women's rights and voting rights all over again. It will not end unless we stand to make it right once again.

We promote our rights as citizens to stand up and vote. We promote GOTV 2014! We have no plan to step aside and let our rights be taken from us. We vote!

We laugh here at the BOG. We have fun, we post awesome pictures. We celebrate!

Many laugh at us for that, however, IMHO it makes us stronger. It gives us the outlet for our grief in a world that just seems to go mad sometimes.

Thank you BOG Together we stand.
