LETTER: App price is pretty steep

To the editor:

    I was shocked to see that our elected representatives at ASUSU had recently approved an expenditure of $21,000 for the development and release of an iPod app that would promote ASUSU activities.

    I may be wrong, but I feel that that is an exorbitant amount to spend on what is essentially advertising.  What is the overall benefit for this program?  I have to think that that money can be used in other areas that would have a greater impact on more students.
