In light of poor attendance at Fountain Fling on Saturday, The Hatchet’s editorial board calls for GW’s Program Board to reconsider the way it programs such events.

When University-wide events are planned the right way, they can prove to be a memorable time for students. Given the responsibilities of Program Board to hold various events throughout the school year, the organization needs to both pick the ideal location and sufficiently promote the event. Saturday’s Fountain Fling is an example of an event that, if held on the Foggy Bottom campus or promoted better, may have been more successful.
