On February 10, 2010, RIT President Bill Destler announced the decision to move RIT to a semester system.  This choice ignored the will of the student body and the vote of the Student Government. (http://www.rit.edu/~w-sgweb/calendar/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Voting-Results.pdf)

We will not just sit back and accept this.  By signing this petition, you are indicating that you will not support RIT with any alumni donations if the transition occurs.
