when the Bachelor/Bashel

On Oct. 24th, 1989 an air
of excitement filled the
Commons. All the stud-’

their "dream date" piled

event was sponsored by
SGA, OTIS, RHC, and SUB.

is suffering from a kid

HOW FO YOU FEEL ABOUT STUDENTS FROM RESIDENCE HALLE
DRIVING TO CLASS?
I can't blame them,
especially if it's raining
or worse. Why don't they
nan some kind of shuttle
bus? Why don't they make
anymore parking lots close
to the classrooms?
-Darren Sims
Off Campus
I think that they could
park up here if they want,
'out it would be nice if
all of us off-campus stud
ents had first priority at
parking (considering they
live right down the hill.)
-Scott Houser
Off Campus
Keri and Jen were bought
by Frank Aiello for $40.00
the 3rd highest bid.
Next up were the Bach
elors. The top three bids
for the guys were as
follows:
1. Steve Petko
(Soph)
Dan Hued
(Fres-Poli Sci)
Steve and Dan were pur
chased by Michelle Bravo
for $40.00.
2.Chip Owen
He was bought by Lisa
for #30.00.
3. Glen Power
(Soph-Sport Exercise
Science)
He was purchased for
$27.00.
The total amount of mon
ey collected for the girls
was $274.00. The total
amount of money collected
for the guys was $312.00.
The total monies raised
was $586.00.
This event turned out
to be a great success for
a great cause. Every
student here hopes the
money collected will help
Kelly's father.
-Michele Sales
I think they should be
able to drive up the hill.
If we o'ff-campus students
don't want to park at the
bottom and walk up, neith
er should the on-campus
students have to.
-Jennifer More
Off Campus
If I lived on campus
and I had an early class,
I'd drive too. Especially
if the weather was bad or
I had a ling night "study
ing." I feel parking is
first come, first serve.
-Robert Letclier
Bachelor/Bachetorette Auction
A Success! Raise 5 586 for Charity
I think that it would
be more convienent for
off campus students to
have the first priority.
On the otherhand I think
it should be open to all
students whether they are
on or off campus.
-Linell Reaves
On Campus
I don't think that peop
le who live on campus
should be told that they
can't drive up the hill.
Parking is on a Ist come
Ist serve basis. If res
idence hall students get
to the top and find legal
parking, they should be
able to park there.
-Melissa Koehler
On Campus
I feel it doesn't matter
if residence hall students
drive to class. I feel if
they don't want to walk up
the hill, especially for
night classes, they have
the same opportunity as
off campus students. I
drive up to class at night
and I feel there should be
more parking spaces.
-Jim Sickonn
On Campus
I feel that there is no
reason for Residence Hall
students to drive up the
Hill. There is not enough
parking space as it is and
if residence hall students
drive then that only makes
the parking situation
worse.
