‼️DEBATE DEBATE DEBATE‼️
(disclaimer: no real ducks will be harmed)
This will provoke some *very* mixed responses. The PD exists, of course, for controversy and scandal. Fundamentally, though, I want the Woosta Source to remain with its current students' needs and interests at heart. Therefore, I put it to you to offer your opinions on the future of the Peeking Duck. As the form description details, the PD is a tradition of the Source. However, a forum where students can anonymously submit anything has potential welfare impacts.
Having read some genuinely concerning submissions since becoming editor (these were absolutely not published), I feel it's my duty to let the people have their say. If the results are significant, I will publish a short report summarising these. Following this stage, I would take the findings to the JCR Committee next term where further debate could ensue over the constitutional mandates of the WS Editor. This might sound a bit drastic, of course, if none of you actually have an issue with the PD.
Feel free to take this debate to the comments on this post.
An invite for Worcester students to offer their honest opinions on the role of the Peeking Duck in the Woosta Source. The PD can feature very intimate details about individuals. Those who are the subject of submissions to the Peeking Duck are asked for consent before their story is published. Names....
