Campus lighting, food, SGA
lovacchini speaks out
on student concerns
By Anna Wilson

there is that "the
trees planted several

mounting sane lights on
the science building,"
he said.

lovacchini hears about
is the quality of food
in the UNCA cafeteria.
"Believe it or not,
food services at some
schools are worse than
the one here at UNCA,"
