4 /EDITORIAL CAPITAL TIMIS February 24, 1993 Not invited to see Hillary Clinton? Join the club. Hillary Clinton visited Penn State Harrisburg, and your invitation got lost in the mail. Relax, you are not alone. Only a few students knew about the visit. If you were one who lifted your head from the books for a moment to hear the whisper that Hillary Clinton was visiting our campus, then you were in a state of grace. What was the big secret? As students, you all should have had the opportunity to see Hillary Clinton in person. If you happened to sneak a peek at the first lady, then you were lucky. Only ten PSH students where allowed to attend the luncheon and brainstorming session in the Educational Activities Building. However, the students could not get a word in edgewise about their feelings on health care reform. What most of the highly educated professionals present failed to address was that health care reform is, and will be, the responsibility of college-age students in the future. If more students had been allowed to attend the conference, they probably would have made significant contributions to the discussions. I was among the lucky ones to have had the chance to participate in the conference. So, what was the big secret? Was a single PSH figurehead to share the limelight alone with Hillary Clinton? Or, maybe it was the Secret Service who admonished everyone to secrecy. !CORRECTION: Last issue's editorial had stated that Bill Clinton was our 52nd president. However, the editorial meant to say that Bill Clinton is the United States' 42nd president, and his inauguration was the country's 52nd inaugural. 1 EDITORS-IN-CHIEF Angie West Candy Franks PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR Michael Starkey ART DIRECTOR Trev Stair LAYOUT EDITOR Mike Reteneller ADVERTISING MANAGER Michele Loeper COPY EDITOR Kate Sherman SPORTS EDITOR Hilary Zeiders FACULTY ADVISOR Dr. Peter Parisi STAFF Torrie Andrade, Jeff Feehrer, John D.
