Opinion in Brief
It may be hard to believe that VCU students actually care about the SGA, but some people do, especially when the candidates start pulling some unethical crap.
Justin Greene, one of the three candidates for vice president, did some stumping on Facebook.com by tagging his campaign poster with each of his friend’s names, making the poster appear on his friend’s profiles without their consent.

A Facebook prank isn’t anything to get your undies in a bundle over, but it’s petty and unnecessary.
Other candidates promoted themselves by spamming members of VCU Facebook groups. Those who joined SGA candidates’ groups were asking for it; everyone else probably didn’t like it too much.
Inside sources say that every one of the three parties running on the executive ballot used the Internet questionably, to say the least. And these are the people who are going to lead the student body.
Their actions aren’t as serious as grand larceny or vandalizing a church, but they’re wrong nonetheless. If these candidates are pushing the ethical limits with their campaigning, who knows what they’ll do once in office.
