Facilities Commissioner

Wednesday, 5/7/97 Facilities Commissioner Telly Tse
The endorsement of Telly Tse for Facilities Commissioner is not
without hesitation. Of the three candidates who are running for
Facilities Commissioner, it is Tse who brings both previous
experience and a vision for expansion. Additionally, as an
independent, he possesses greater independence of mind than the
other candidates, who have either estranged themselves from many
within student government or who might be too quick to rubberstamp
proposals submitted to them by interested parties. The Bruin lends
its endorsement to Tse with faith in his ability to communicate
diplomatically with those he may have to butt heads with in his
drive to build commuter lounges, 24-hour study centers and new
resources for the John Wooden Center. Nevertheless, despite Tse’s
extensive experience with on-campus housing associations, his
ability to follow through on such goals as creating a thorough
on-campus recycling program is in question. Tse seems to have
little more than intimations of the complex on-campus relationships
he must create if he is to add facilities to the John Wooden Center
or increase campus safety. He is the best candidate but, as with
other offices, he is not the ideal candidate.
