Subject: Letter of Complaint
To whom it may concern
I am writing to you to complain about the removal of DCU Drama Posters from both the General notice board in the hub, and the notice board allocated to the DCU Drama society in the Henry Grattan Building, just past the street, before the stairwell.
The Monday morning before last, DCU Drama put up posters on the General notice board in the Hub, which was previously empty, advertising the production of All My Sons, running in the Venue for 3 days. Close to lunchtime on Monday, I left the Venue and noticed an individual removing the posters. When I asked them, they informed us that they were instructed to do so by Shea McNelis of the Students Union. These posters were replaced on the board, but in a corner, where they were hardly visible. I asked Shea, who informed us that the Board was reserved for Rag Week posters (which I have been told on a number of occasions that the board is there for whoever gets there first, provided the poster is stamped). I was informed by Shea that the posters for Rag Week were put up previously and taken down by the Debate Society.
Today (Tuesday) when I was walking through the Henry Grattan building, I noticed that the notice board which had been allocated to DCU Drama was replaced with posters for the Rodrigo y Gabriella concert. The notice board held a piece of cloth surrounding it, and several posters for the upcoming production of The Merchant Of Venice.
Since postering the campus is the primary method of advertising our events, this has seriously impeded our ability to display our upcoming shows. I would like to know what the SPC and Students Union are going to do about this issue. At the very least, I would like the posters and cloth from the allocated notice board replaced, or money given as reimbursement.
