This letter is in response to "ASMSU continually seems unnecessary" by Ryan Gartland (SN 2/11).
Although it would be a student's choice to request a refund, I would like to point out that ASMSU provides helpful services, such as legal assistance and temporary loans to students, and such services may just keep a student in school during a crisis.
You pay thousands of dollars to MSU every year for non-elective and useless programs. Why quibble about $13? At least this program benefits the students.
