To the editor:
Recently, Auburn University College Republicans dealt with a number of internal concerns. These were addressed, discussed and handled in a respectful, responsible manner Sunday, April 3, 2011. The meeting resulted in a unanimous decision that all matters had been resolved and we could all move forward.
I want AUCR to continue to be one of the top College Republican chapters in the nation, as I know that it can.
Slandering the name of AUCR and its officers on the Internet is no way to restore the integrity of our club. These vicious attacks are not what College Republicans should stand for, and I am greatly saddened that these members have taken former, internal concerns and made them part of a deliberate attack against their fellow Auburn University College Republicans.
Internal matters should not be played out on the Internet.
This whole situation is childish, irresponsible and completely inappropriate, and I am hopeful that those behind it will realize this and take down the blog posts.
As a member and officer of AUCR, I am content with decisions made and hope to have conflicts with these members completely resolved immediately. Enough time and energy have been spent on this senseless matter.
--Hayley Thrift, vice-chair, Auburn College Republicans
