We will endeavor fo reporf pasl' evenfs, S.G.A.'s pre- senf sfafus and upcoming evenfs in all of our fufure reports fo you, fhe sfudenf. On fhe morning of Sepfember 20, a leadership break- fasf was held for all aspiring fufure governmenf representa- fives. Alfhough invifafions were senf fo cerfain sfudenfs, any sfudenf who showed an inferesf in Sfudenf Governmenf was welcome fo affend. The evenf was an oufsfanding success. Many freshmen, invifed and ofherwise, affended. A reasonable number of pefifions for office were received on fhe firsf day. More are expecfed. Ocfober 6'rh will be fhe deadline for pefifions in fhe -Sfudenf Services office. Ocfober Ilfh will be fhe dafe sef for a candidafe as- sembly in which fhe sfudenf body can hear fhe reasons why these freshmen would like fo represienf fhe sfudenfs inferesfs. lf will nof in any way be mandafory for sfudenfs fo affend fhis assembly. On fhaf evening fhere will be a candidafe dinner wifh Dr. Gibson. Af fhis dinner fufure and presenf problems of fhe Sfudenf Governmenf will be discussed wifh fhe candidafes. Change is fhe key fo fhe fufure for Sfudenf Govern- menf. As we move fo fhe new campus drasfic changes are going fo occur and as fhey do, S.G.A. musf change also. Wifh fhe help of concerned sfudenfs we will adiusf fo fhe new problems fhaf will, and even now, are arising. lf you as a sfudenf are concerned or are unhappy wifh fhe workings of 'rhe Sfudenf Government as a whole, do yourself and your friends a favor. Run for sfudenf senafe. There is an incenfive scholarship for fhaf sfudenf fhaf works hardiesf fo furfher Sfudenf Governmenf. lf change is needed, af leasf fry fo make fhaf change. Gef involved, you've nofhing fo lose. We of fhe Sfudenf Governmenf and some of fhe admin- isfrafive people feel fhaf now is fhe fime for a shiff of pur- pose in fhe Sfudenf Governmenf. With fhe increasing sfudenf body, fhe needs of fhe sfudenfs are rising. Such problems as housing, insurance, sfudenf loans and general sfudenf wel- fare musf be dealf with immediately. Hopefully, wifh fhe adoption of a new plan soon, fhe Sfudenf Governmenfs role as a social organizafion will end. Such a plan would include fhe immediafe involvemenf of fhe Sfudenf Life Commiffee info fhe social aspecfs of sfudenf acfivifies. Wifh fhe involvemenf of the .Sfudenf Life Commiffee in sfudenf affairs, more power and an increased member- ship should be given if. All fhe candidates who lose in fhe upcoming elecfion, will in facf, noi' be losers a'l' all. We hope fhaf all of fhem will be immediafely involved in fhe Sfudenf Life Commiffeie. To sfrengfhen S.G.A.'s new role on campus, we have infroduced a new fype of insurance plan for fhe sfudenfs. lfs' fhie Blue Cross, Blue Shield plan fhaf you are probably aware of. lf has fhe besf coverage for fhe cheapesf price yef. We would recommend all sfudenfs go fo fhe Sfudienf Services office and receive addifional informafion. Several have already signed up. On fhe drawing board is a new sfudenf loan plan. By fhe end of fhis semesfer, we hope fo have a plan by which sfudenfs may fake loans of higher amounfs, wifh less inferesf and larger paymenf periods. lf mighf be well fo remember S.G.A. loans when you are in a pinch. However, SGA loans arte sfill available af regular rafes. There are several upcoming evenfs scheduled for fhe sfudenf body in fhe nexf few we-eks. On Ocfober I3fh, Twisf- ed Nerve , an excellenf fhriller, will be shown af a cosf of only 50 cenfs per sfudenf. Somefime during fhe lasf week of Ocfober, fhere will be a Halloween parfy.
