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.

Lobby. They Board answered
questions directed to *them about
problems students have with

Bruce Young of the Athletic
Deparment, Jim White and James
Staudemeir spoke on class prob
lems and counseling, and Dean
McCallus spoke on Student Af§

A Valentines Dance was held
in the Dining Hall on February

was welcome and encouraged to
come. Many types of music were
played. Refreshments were
served and all the participants
enjoyed themselves. Other Dances
are planned throughout the
Spring term.
The R.H.C. hopes -that through
more information of upcoming

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
