Election Campaign Made Harder
by Joe Kupec
While SGA candidates don't
have to worry about raising large
campaign war chests like their
counterparts in this year's presidential
primaries, their campaigns are not
without headaches.
Michelle Sutton, candidate for
SGA presidency, had trouble with
disappearing campaign posters.
Sutton used half sheets of
poster paper and computer printouts as
the primary vehicle for her campaign.
Pornography Forum Held
by Levette Parish
Have you ever gone to a
convenience store and been bombarded
by pornographic magazines?
At 7:00 p.m., Wednesday,
March 23, in the Gallery Lounge of the
Capital College a program dealing with
pornography was held. The exploitation
of women through the means of
pornography was the main topic of the
panel discussion and film.
"Pornography degrades
women," said Linda Collins, Executive
Director of The Women's Center of
Montgomery County. "Men prefer to
dominate women," and, in pornographic
films, women usually play the
submissive sole, she said.
"More money is made in
pornography than in movies and music
combined." said Collins.
According to Collins, between
$5 and $9 billion a year ($lO,OOO a day)
is grossed in the sale of pornography.
Videos outsell films because VCRs are
at the disposal of nearly everyone today,
as compared to a few years ago when the

Last week she started putting
up posters on bulletin boards around
campus following the SGA election
policy.
At 9 a.m. Wednesday morning
she noticed that the half sheets of poster
board were missing from several bulletin
boards.
"I was too furious to bother
counting exactly how many were
missing," said Sutton.
Only the more elaborate posters
were taken and Sutton hoped to continue
using the computer printouts for the rest
of the election.
cost of VCRt, was outragi , )lisly high,
she said
"Pornography stirs up violence
in our culture," Collins said. "One out
of every four women will be sexually
assaulted [in her life time]," she said.
Collins said pain and loneliness
often cause people to resort to
pornographic readings, films and acts
because there is a need to dominate or be
a part of something. "Sex is used as [a
form of] donlinance," said Collins.
"People become desensitized to
pornography," she said. People are
exposed to pornography so much in their
everyday lives that they tend to ignore it,
Collins said.
"The only way to overcome
[this problem] is to write Ito publishers
and editors] about it," she said.
After the film, a discussion
took place. Collins probed the audience
for their feelings about the film. An
atmosphere of hostility filled the room
when participants expressed their
emotions. Nevertheless, the film and
discussion made it' an interesting
evening.

The current tax reform
legislation that is proposed is reported to
include a hidden tax increase, he said.
The plan will reduce taxes and will
increase taxes for those who earn
$30,000 a year and live in an apartment,
he said. Tax equity is stressed and two
main goals of tax reform are "to make
taxes more fair and to provide a revenue
base for localities and school districts,"
he said.
When asked to comment on the
current presidential race and make a
prediction as to who would be our next
president, Singel declined on the latter.
Singel did say that "Jesse
Jackson's victories and campaign make
up take us back to the premise of social
service by government."
Lt. Govenor Mark Singel paid a visit to the Capital College last
week at the invitation of DTK.

Jackson will not be seen as a
part of the presidential ticket due to his
"lack of a qualified resume," Singel said.
Thus contradicting his earlier statement
that anyone who wanted to get into
politics should do it. Singel clarified by
saying that there should be some
political experience for those who
wanted to be the chief executive officer
of the nation. But, so that we don't
underestimate the power that Jackson
possesses, Singel said that Jackson's role
will be one of a power broker with the
potential to catapult blacks into
influential positions within the political
internal structure of the nation.
Singel declined to comment on
