Problems with student center
To The Editor:
Why do they call it a stu
dent center? When a building is
entitled “Student Center” it
would be safe to assume that it
is for sudents.
This is my second term here
at capitol campus and as far as
I can tell the activities office is
not much of an activities office,

wouldn’t give him the key or
offer to open it up.
Although the student center
doesn’t have much to offer it
still provides some recreation
for “Left-behind" students and
should be open.

A sad situation has devel

teria we have no choice but to
eat Tender Touch bread, which
is produced by a company
whose regular employees are
on strike.

Capitol accepted all of my cred
