RaiderGate
For this paper, I decided to write a letter to the President of the Student Government Association. I wrote the letter because I feel like RaiderGate should stay open during the home football games at Texas Tech. I chose to write about this issue because I feel like it affects me personally. Before every home game, it’s a big hassle for my friends and I to go out to the parking lot where RaiderGate is held, stay there for about two hours, then pack everything up and leave to go to the game.

I also stated in my letter, that you are never really guaranteed a seat at home football games. “ Once the student section is filled, it’s filled,” my idea is to leave RaiderGate open so the students that are turned away can still have a place on Texas Tech campus to watch the game and show their school spirit. The second reason that I wrote about was the atmosphere. RaiderGate is a really fun event that all of your friends and even people you don’t know attend. Most people don’t get there until later in the day. After these people are there for about an hour, they make them leave. This is a very good way to get the students not to come anymore.
