(Photo by Brad Gillispie) National and local issues concern students This year was one of new additions in both faculty and buildings, concern of the economy and national issues, and the expression of different views. There were several visitors on cam¬ pus including United States Senator from Kansas Robert Dole and Barbara Pomeroy, candidate for governor. Senator Dole spoke to members of the audience who consisted of concerned farmers, students and other interested citizens. He spoke on farm and economy issues and answered questions from the audience. Barbara Pomeroy made a stop on campus early in the spring semester to campaign in her race for govenor. She then returned later to speak to Tom Moorhous’ government classes. There were many new members of the BCCC faculty. They included new coaches and assistant coaches and others in many different areas. Additions to buildings on campus were begun during the year. The Ad¬ ministration Building and the Fine Arts Building will both have added space when construction is completed. On the national scene, students were concerned over the Libyan crisis, Nicaraguan uprisings, trouble in the Phillipines, and the nuclear accident in Russia. These incidents all caused a great deal of discussion both in and out of the classroom. The Fine Arts Building addition completion is ahead of schedule because of good weather during the fall and winter. (Photo by Brad Gillispie.) News 23
