Your article speaks fallacious claims that honestly speak poorly to the validity and the credibility of The Tribune News.

Students did not push the President down the stairs, nor did students attempt to do so. Students had no intent in causing her harm, but only wanted her to address the about the matter, but she refused to do so.

Madame President had also not been leaving her office. She, her Senior Administration, and the Council Chairman were in the Michael Eldon Complex Boardroom hosting a Press Conference on matters affecting the College concerning the increase and creation of non-tuition fees.

COBUS' Release speaks the truth of the matter, issued today directly after the event:
**The College of the Bahamas Union of Students, on Thursday April 18th, 2013, met outside of the Michael Eldon Complex Boardroom as the Council Chairman & Senior Team concluded their Press Conference with media personnel. As they exited, students assembled in resolute stance to ask questions in expectation of answers from the Council Chairman and the COB President.
The Council Chairman indeed spoke to students with the COB Executive Vice President at his side for well over half an hour. However, the COB President refused to exit the room and address the student body. COB Security personnel were soon called into the meeting room to escort her off of the premises. However, due to the mass of students present, COB Male Security forced their way through the students and moved her down the stairs into her office across the street. Upon sight of this, students followed her to her office, asking for questions that she refused to give, and soon exited the premises without addressing the students.**

You are free to publicize to the public this very information. However, these disingenuous claims noted within your article need to be rescinded, and the truth needs to be spoken.
