Daily News: BYU students show little interest in Provo issues

What a terrible report. How about you ask how many of these people are from Provo? In Washington, my home, who is the governor? Do you know? Christine Gregoire. My congressman, Doc Hastings. My country Sheriff? Larry Taylor. I hope you all get a good internship to learn about reporting.

Dear Mr. Washington,
I'm sorry but I think that it is EVERY student's obligation to know what is going on around them. If BYU students are going to live in Provo they need to know what is going on in Provo. BYU students live in Provo, Provo residents live in Provo. The commonality? Obviously they are both apart of the Provo community. Now you (like many fellow students that were probably interviewed)may not be from Provo Utah however, if you do not act as a part of the BYU student community in the larger provo community you could be damaging future student-to-city relations.
Not only that Mr. Washington I think the purpose of this report was to prove how clueless students can be about the politics in the world around them. Did you not catch the question about Secretary of State Hilary Clinton? she has nothing to do with Provo elections.
