Letter: In Support of CSU Daycare
If you don’t already know, the CSU is working to create a daycare.
This is an amazing initiative. The daycare will be right across from the Library building and will provide an essential service that helps make education at Concordia more accessible to an important part of our community: student parents.
I can only imagine how complicated it must be to be a student, paying tuition, working around your class schedule and needing to support a child, especially if you’re a single parent. Being able to access affordable childcare near campus is a need that has been expressed over and over by student parents at Concordia, and I am so glad the CSU is taking action to make it happen.
I urge all undergrads to vote YES to the CSU Daycare in the referendum on Nov. 24 through 26. The funding for this project already exists, but the CSU needs our votes to reallocate this money to the daycare initiative. We can all play an important part in supporting student parents at Concordia.
