On April 12, Lee Jae-gon, President of the division of Student Affairs and Park Young-hwan, President of the General Students' Association submitted their opinions to chungdaeshinmun. The following is a summary of their opinions.

    "Drinking tents on campus have a lot of bad effects: It impinges on the diversity of the programs of the programs of the festival. It is fun for Chungdaites, but local residents can't enjoy the festival with us, and it affects the CNU's reputation."

Lee Jae-gon, President of the Division of Student Affairs

     "We'll keep providing drinking tents, but on the other hand we will make an effort to develop new contents so many students can share and learn together."

Park Young-hwan, President of the General Students' Association

 They are in conflict and don't understand each other. Eight reporters and the editor-in-chief discussed the issue on May 6th.
    "I think it is absurd that the administration tries to prohibit drinking terns without considering students' opinions. They should take the students' opinions into account. Furthermore, a survey conducted by administration held biased opinion." 
    "I don't think it is good to sell alcohol and food for a high price. I think making benefits from students on campus is wrong. It is not fair that students make a lot of money this way." 
    "Is there any reason that they should not make money? We depend on capitalism. Would you disagree just because they are students? In addition, the prohibition of drinking terns is not a solution. However, Lee Jae-gon acts as if everything can be solved through the prohibition of drinking terns." 
    Park's attitude toward the administration has some problems. He world not listen to their points, it prevents any resolution." 
    "It is true that we don't have various programs for the festival. If I hear someone say 'festival', I just think of 'drinking tents'. This needs to be improved. We should develop a variety of events and attractions and minimize the number of problems that occur because of the drinking tents."
     It was tougher then we thought it world be. It was impossible to reach a solution, but one thing is clear: We should make an effort to develop new programs and minimize the harm caused by drinking terns. All the people in CNU should think about how to improve our festival.
