Today I received a newsletter in the mail. Mr. Gentry attached a paper on the front of every newsletter and it included some information that I thought was interesting. I have to disagree with some of Mr. Gentry's claims, I can only assume he is misinformed. There were several incidences of 'trashcannings' last year, and some of the students were trash canned twice. I am worried that Mr. Gentry might actually believe that these things are not happening, however I can not be certain. He also mentions the Link Crew program, from my understanding that was implemented last year. Many people got assigned mentors but Myself and a few others did not. Also during the year we were told we were getting new mentors due to an uneven number of people in each group, but after that nothing happened. It was a brilliant idea, and many people looked forward to it, but sadly the program did not last. To Mr. Gentry's credit the extra staff on campus has helped with the 'trashcannings' this year but it has not stopped the other forms of harassment and bullying. Pretending like it is not happening does not mean it is going away.
