Because of a poll sent to faculty and students ear lier this year, research and plans have been finished and pre sented to the Board of Trustees. Yet Dean Chris White has the final approval of whether the break is feasible academically and monetarily. Moser will be working with Mike Nutt, who defeated Matt Payne for vice-president, and John Smith, who was unapposed for re-election as treasurer. “Surveys are the main thing,” said Moser.
