Page Eight - Highacres Collegian, Feb. 17, 1977 The Residenfce Hall Council has launched an all-out attempt to involve students in activi ties on campus. The goal is to provide an event for the interests of all students. Act ivities range from pure fun to academic subjects. With the elections of new members, R.H.C. has more peo ple who wish to constructive ly develop the potential of the organization. The new members are: Greg James-Social committee,Sadie Ritchie-Public Relations, Dick Wetzel-Food and Housing, Cindy Layton and John Sengle-Recreation. Two major events held in the Residence Hall were Women's and Men's Week. They were sponsored by the Office of Residential Life and the Stu dent Affairs Cultural Series. Both were a series of lectures, discussions, and films dealing with differnet areas of con cern for men and women. Some of the topics were rape, abor tion, non-parenthood as a life style and men's liberation. The students actively participated and the programs were success ful. On January 26, a forum with the Students Standards Board KENNEDY ASS AS/NATION Washington- The United States House of Representatives, over Strong opposition, voted on February 3 to reactivate un til at leas"£ March 31 its in- vestigation of the John Ken nedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. assaslnations.

Vice- President and Liz Kovacs-R.H.C. Assistant Vice-President was held in the Residence Hall Lobby. They Board answered questions directed to *them about problems students have with classes, University charges, and other areas of concern. As a result of this Forum, students have become more aware of dealing with their prob lems. The Student Standards Board has also gained more in sight into their responsibili ty.

The R.H.C. hopes -that through more information of upcoming events, students will partici pate more in the activities planned for them. INVESTIGATION REVIVED turn but dissolved automatical ly at the end of the 94th Con- gress. The twelve-member assas ination panel is expected to use the roughly two-month per iod to get itself organized, establish rules and invest igate methods and work out a budget. When the limited mandate expires at the end of March, the House will consider whether to extend it through the rest of the legislative TIME Continued from page 4 campus was to take place in Texas. "Morning Song" is well-established, having al ready cut two albums. However, the Union Board does concede that the Eagles are undoubted ly better known. The Sub has considered the success of the Mark Lane Lecture and recognizes the monetary support given to the Student Affairs Cultural Series by various clubs as a great asset to the achievement. How ever the SUB still feels that a money barrier exists for bringing "well-established" groups to Highacres. For in stance, "Morning Song" our "local band", ranges in cost from $2BOO-$3OOO per show. If "well-establishe" refers to the "Eagles", the cost would be roughly three times as muc|i, as "Morning Song." We do not believe, at this time, that all the clubs on campus could come close to raising the money needed .to bring in this type of well-established group. The SUB is utilising money and ideas to the best of its ability. We are al ways willing to recieve sug gestions at our meetings on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 P.M. in the Commons, and are also willing to recieve any constructive criticism of our performance. i Respectfully, The members of The Student Union Board year. One reason the committee ran into trouble was that many members considered ex travagant its spending propos al-$l 3 million over two years.
