This is not a real big complaint but I do find it somewhat ironic. I find it funny that people continue to complain about the Mirror and about things like the mission statement and yet the Erskine Mirror blog is hardly used at all. I also find it funny that the student forum isn't used either. I know that these blogs may not post the issues that we want to discuss but that is one of the best things about blogs; they are two way. You may say "the author of the Mirror blog has to approve comments before they are posted so I don't even bother." It is true that comments must first be approved. My suggestion is to try anyways and let me know if you are rejected. Save your post and if it is respectful, I will be glad to fight for your right to post on a school run blog. I don't know if any of this is actually relevant but I thought I would post it anyways.
here are some sites to look at:

Thank you for the support in regards to the Erskine Mirror. This complaining comes from within the staff as well, and despite trying to get them to write more and about what they want, many seem content to sit back and take shots at those in leadership rather than contribute. I feel the same is true with those outside of the mirror staff. Many of the most vociferous complainers have been offered to have their opinion published, but they have refused to write it. How funny is it when we hear complaints from the same people talking about how the editors are one sided and stick to that dreaded mission statement!
I shall get back to you on capitalism and Christianity on another day.
Good comments, Lee. The only reason I activated comment moderation was to preempt the spam comments one often gets on blogs and guard against misuse of comments through profanity, etc. Just FYI.
Cheers,
