To the Editor:

Jacob Baron '10's suggestion that students write-in Stephen Colbert as a choice for Student Assembly president is completely off-base ("Colbert for SA President," May 8). I think it's fair to criticize the SA as a "nonentity" and a joke of an organization; however, if you're going to criticize something you have to offer a solution that amounts to something better than "mockery is change so vote for Stephen Colbert." If Baron has such contempt for the current slate of Student Assembly candidates, then perhaps he should have considered getting some guts and using his op-ed to offer himself as a write-in candidate to reform the organization.
