[GSA Council] GA Mobilization

[David Clos-Sasseville]

Hi,

I fully support the idea of a mobilization around austerity. The effects on
universities and specifically on Concordia are discussed more and more on
campus and in the media so I think we can say that our members know it is
happening and how it affects them.
