Subscribers & Readers,
I would like to begin by thanking
you as a reader of The Chieftain. This project began last fall because I felt
there was a need for students to know what was going on campus. This has included updates on Student Life
events, Chapel, construction, etc. It
has become a venue that currently sends out thousands of emails weekly updating
students, faculty, staff, prospective students, alumni, and friends of DBU. This site has created a freedom to ask
questions and get answers.
The
Chieftain began as an anonymous site because I wanted to deliver news that
was not focused on my interests, but the students. However, as you may or may not know, I have
been elected to represent the students as SGA/Student Body President for the
coming year. I take this opportunity
seriously, and fully commit myself to serving the students. I do not wish to destroy this line of
communication with you all; however, using a Xanga site does not seem to be the
most suitable way of doing so.
Today will be the last post of by
The DBU Patriot. My pledge to you as the
students is to increase current communications in a more appropriate
manner. I would like to have a transition,
in which, the Student Government Association reaches out to inform the
students. When you have questions,
contact us. SGA has quick response to
all emails, and makes sure each one gets the attention it deserves. The SGA website will also become a key part
for communication in the fall semester.
I am in
anticipation for the coming academic year.
Enjoy your summer, and see you all in the fall.
In HIS Grip,
Cody C Caudill

“Do nothing from
selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as
more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal
interests, but also the interests of others.” – Philippians 2:3-4 |
