Wearing school
colors or affordable
FSU T-shirts on a
special day during the
week of an upcoming
sports event.-Dorchell

We feel that, since
our schedules
freguently do not
permit us to attend the
local games, wearing
something as a symbol
shows we are supporting
our university at least
in spirit. That
practice would help
commuters feel less
alienated from the
campus.
Forums are scheduled
at times less likely
for commuting students
to attend.
When this comment
was made, several ideas
came to mind. Perhaps
a particular forum
could be scheduled in
the evening or on a
weekend, in addition to
normal scheduling
times. It also might
tielp commuting students
to have the forum
i^ideotaped to view at
^heir own leisure,
prhis procedure might
also enable them to
earn extra credit
points because some
j courses require that a
student attend at least
one or two forums.
We need activities
that will cater to
non-traditional
students because of our
mature age status, like
gospel programs.

Not discounting
the traditional
students' role at the
university,
non-traditional
students would like to
have entertaining
programs that will
appeal to a variety of
students and not just
cater to the younger
crowd.
More class sections
should be offered.
Some commuting
students might have to
wait an additional
semester to graduate in
order to take a
particular class
because of the
scheduling offered by
the university. For
example, if the student
wants to sign up for
African-American
History or French, and
the section available
is offered only in the
afternoons, that
scheduling may present
a problem to commuting
students who must
schedule their classes
in the morning.
This newspaper
should provide a great
opportunity for
commuting students to
have their voices heard
on important issues
that concern them. I
think that setting up a
commuting student
suggestion box,
encouraging students to
mail in comments, or
exploring other avenues
of communication would
be a logical start for
fellow commuting
students to feel a part
of FSU.
