An excellent article, called "P-Town Politics" appears in the latest issue of the (Shawnee State) University Chronicle. (Click here to read it.)
Written by student journalists, Adam Sheets and Stephanie Phillips, the article provides an excellent overview of the mess that Mayor Jane Murray has created in her first two weeks in office. Please read it. Perhaps you could take a moment to comment on line to encourage Sheets and Phillips in their efforts.
Mayor Murray had previously agreed to an interview with the student journalists but later declined and sent Peter Mingus, her Chief of Staff who has since resigned, instead. What happened to Murray's promise of openness and working closely with SSU students that she made repeatedly in the campaign? Murray should keep her promise and let the students interview her.
The same issue features an opinion piece by Phillips that is bit more sympathetic to Mayor Murray but still calls her on the carpet and calls for the mayor and council to work together.
