Are there any bad kids in
the world or are they just
misguided ones?
Dr. Miller gets some of the
most interesting guest speakers
for his classes.
Competition is getting fiesty
in intramural basketball. Must
be March Madness. Speaking
of sports, plenty of people are
getting excited about the up and
coming major league baseball
season, it’s just too bad the
average Joe can’t afford to buy
a ticket. Who can we thank?
The agents, or Bonilla,
Saneburg, and Clemens
themselves.
The S.G.A. elections were
held recently. We know who
won, but we don’t know by
how much or how many people
voted, because ex-officio
President, Steve Zappacosta,
won’t release the numbers.
How democratic. Maybe that’s
what you get when you put a
business major in office.
Can you believe the state
representatives are pulling with
this car leasing program? I
can’t believe we, the
Pennsylvania taxpayers, pay for
a majority of the lease, 95% of
the insurance, repairs, and
upkeep. I guess success does
come before work somewhere
other than in the dictionary.

Complaints

What happened to the
water? Upon my return to the
Hazleton Campus this semester,
I have noticed that taking a
shower just is not the same.
The water smells like the over
chlorinated water in the
swimming pool, and it tastes
about as wonderful as it, too.
For what we were paying to go
here, I simply cannot afford to
but my own bottled water. Even
if I did have the extra money, I
would not spend it! Silly me, I
just assumed that the price of
room and board included
healthy-tasting water. Instead
of saving my pennies for the
bottled water, my spare change
is saved for the sickly dryers in
the South Hall laundry room.
Ever since the beginning of my
first semester here, I have had
to pour $l.OO worth of quarters
into one dryer to dry one
average size load of clothes.
This is just a tad bit ridiculous.
Instead, I have been reduced to
drying what I can for .50 cents
and just hanging my jeans up
from the curtain rod back in my
room. A lovely sight for
passersby, lam sure. Would
not it be a spectacular sight for
visitors to see students sprawled
Okay, I’m thinking Warren
Commission,... Magic Bullet
theory,... Anita Hill and
Clarence Thomas.... Figure out
what I’m getting at? Right!
Arlen Specter’s re-election
chances! Looks like our
long-time U.S. Senator is in an
uphill (no pun intended) battle.
Attentions students heading
to University Park next fall. I
heard tuition is increasing
again.
Is Jane’s Addiction, or
should I say, was Jane’s
Addiction, one of the most
intense bands? Speaking of
good groups, Tribe Called
Quest is excellent.
Is family the most
underrated aspect of life? If
you ever sit and talk about the
"old" days with someone over
forty, all you will hear about is
how much more families did
together. Could be a big reason
(along with corrupt
government) that America is in
the shape it’s in.
And I was talking to Greg
Richman the other day, and he
says he is "bent", about the fact
that Heather Dean has blue
shoes and he doesn’t.

"amous for our "Jimmy’s Hot Dog"
out all over the sidewalks,
groaning in sheer agony? The
white stuff that is put down on
the sidewalks after it snows,
and I am not talking salt here,
is really slippery, and" one time
too many has this already
happened to me. Luckily, I only
suffered a bad bruise and a
headache. I don’t have the time
to take away from my studies
for a lawsuit. One of my last
complaints, is the need for
paper towels or hand dryers and
handsoap in the women’s
bathrooms in South Hall. I do
not know about everyone else,
but I certainly do not keep a bar
of soap and a hand towel in my
pocket everywhere I go. How
much more could it cost the
University for some soap and
paper towels? It is not just me
with this complaint, I have
heard parents complain about
not being able to really wash
their hands after using the
bathroom. Next thing you
know, we will have to bring
along our own toilet paper.
Last, but certainly not least, is
the air-conditioning problem in
the Kostos Building. Earlier last
semester, when it was still

pretty hot out, the
air-conditioners never seemed
to work. But now that it is thirty

air-conditioner kicks in. Well in
this case, being a little late is
not better than ever. I do not
think I am asking for too much

dryers that work, safety as a
