The Student' Government
Association of Highacres is en
gaged in a number of projects,
all with the student in mind.
Presently the Student Gov

Student Union Board are working
on a newsletter.' The S.G.A.-
S.U.B, newsletter will function
as a first-hand communication
medium to inform the campus
community of the work and act

tions.

In past years, S.G.A. meet
ings have been open to everyone
on campus, but most people did
not know when the meetings were
held. Only recently have the
dates of the meetings become
common knowledge.
In an effort to interpret
the University's * smoking policy
for the campus, S.G«A. has formed
a SstncMag oouiiutttee". This com
mittee is reviewing the Univer
sitys' very general policy on January 12
smoking and will set up a specific
policy for Highacres.
S.G.A. has formed a commit
tee to look into the problems of
drinking alcohol. The commit
tee was formed on a request by
the S.G.A. of Lycoming College,
which is doing a study of the
problems Of drinking alcohol on
various college campuses. This
committee will make a decision
regarding support for a lobby
to lower the drinking age in
Pennsylvania. 1
Presently students can cash
personal checks of up to $lO
at the Hazleton National IJank,
with identification.
S.G.A. is trying to make this
a policy with other banks as
well, and hopefully for larger
amounts of money.
