As of September, Dah the Man, the
campus mailman was no longer part of the
St. Andrews community. He was released
in an administrative effort to save money.
Tom Whitlock and ASC have since taken
over mailroom duties.
At the start of fall term, many problems
occurred because of this change. Many
students complained of not having their
mail by 12:30 and having to walk over to
ASC to pick up packages.
ASC has solved these problems. They
are trying to have the mail in the mail
boxes by noon. There are some difficul

The North Carolina Student Legislature
at St. Andrews is currently accepting
student members for the 1988-89 school
year.
The NCSL-St. Andrews is a two-fold
organization affording students a practical
education in the political process. The or
ganization is active in a state-wide forum
which convenes every month and debates
pertinent social issues on a national and
state level. The organization allows
students to also participate in a campus
awareness council which attempts to
wrestle with conclusions to campus
problems and propose to the appropriate
bodies the findings and intended solutions.
The organization also allows one to draft
legislation, debate in front of students, and
to run for meaningful statewide offices
within the structure of the total organiza
tion.
The NCSL shall be accepting members
from any major area of study and openly
welcome all who wish to be a part of the
experience.
For information on various meeting
dates or more information, contact:

ties with the mail being on time on
Mondays because of the double load
(Saturday and Monday morning deliver
ies). The other days of the week have
proven to be no problem. ASC has also
moved the packages over to the mailroom.
They are available from 4:30 to 6:30 pm
from Vinnie Johnson. No packages can be
picked up at ASC.
Concerning mail on Saturdays, that was
a project of Dan’s. He was only paid to
work part-time Monday through Friday,
and Saturday mail delivery was his special
favor to students.
