While serving IS a Freshman Class senator tkis year, I have noticed many tiings that I feel could improve lie Student Government Asso ciation at A.C.

We is a have had new “'^ coming forward at the end year that hopefully will it,"" nrn consolidate ^sy Richey Dear Fellow Students, On March 29 and 30 you will have the opportunity to select those people which you think are capable to lead Student Government for the 1979-1980 school year. It concerns me to see that in the case of most of the “races,” including my own of SGA vice president, there is only one candidate. This appar ent lack of interest is what I most strongly hope to change during the coming administra tion. I feel that I am qualified for the position of SGA vice presi dent. During the past year as Junior Class vice president and Clerk of the Senate, I have learned a great deal about how SGA functions. I have also seen the great potential which lies within Student Government to help the students. Student Gov ernment has the potential of being a loud voice in the affairs of the college. I feel that this voice should be that of the majority of the students instead of just a handful. I sincerely hope that you will begin to make your voice heard by voting in this election. While voting, I hope you will vote for me as SGA vice president. Sincerely, David G. Webb Bulletin Board First, I would like to say that I was not planning to run for an office. However, after finding out that no one in the upcoming Sophomore Class was even in terested enough in our class to run for the office of vice president, I decided to run. Although I am busy just like everyone else, I am very inter ested in our class and its involvement in campus activ ities; therefore, I did not want this disinterest to reflect upon myself or the class. Also, I have not been very involved in our class and its activities this year, because I never seem to hear about class meetings until they are already passed. Now that I will be a write-in candidate for the office of vice president of the upcoming Sophomore Class, I intend to work with the elected president to increase interest and activ ities for the class. Also, I will try to make sure that the meetings are well publicized so that members of our class can become more involved. Please write in Kathy Pearce for vice president of the Soph- more Class.

Deadline for all monies will be April 5, 1979. My Fellow Students, Once again, it is election time. I have taken the oppor tunity to run for vice president of the Junior Class. Some may ask why; others do not care. Well, I care and this is my main reason for running for vice president. I want to see us do things together as a class for the good of A.C. and the surround ing community. 1 want us to have fun doing things together. If we decide once and for all to do away with this “I don’t care” attitude, we can accomplish tremendous tasks. We would then be working together, not against each other. I know that I can not make promises about any particular activity; however, I know that given the job, I would do everything within my strength and power to fulfill the task. Running for an office is a worthwhile endeavor because I do it not only for myself, but also for you, the upcoming Juniors. If elected, I would be here to listen to you and your ideas as well as your gripes. But let me tell you a secret, I cannot “listen” if you do not give me anything to listen to. So, please, work with me. After all, I will represent you; don’t leave me “running on empty.” Sincerely, Jo Anne Cavenaugh Continued on 6 Patricia.
