duties, however, it will now be com
posed of a smaller group of people. A
new council will consist of "Appeals

by the students. The whole idea behind
the "Appeals Judges" is to give the stu

opportunitiesfor qjpeal; firstlhe students
can go through the appeals court, and if
still not satisfied with the outcome of the
trial, they can request an appeal to the
Administrative Council.
Dr. Risher, Haney, and Pettit all
agree that "the desire of this committee
was to propose a judicial reforms
packet that reflects the needs and
ideals of the Montreat- Ander
son College Community."
Haney said, "We had an experi
enced team putting this thing to
gether, we were aware of the prob
lems and possible solutions." Also
Pettit remarked, "In my opinion, it
does reflect the maturity and integrity
of a senior level institution."

song,TheHurtingPeople. She stated,
"I started writing the lyrics to The
Hurting People because I
had gotten a letter from a
little girl who was talking
about how much she loved
my music. But there was
definitely an abusive situ
ation in her family. I knew
from the way she worded
the letter that my music is
kind of her escape from
this situation. I wanted to
be really careful and give
her something that would
give her some hope. That
song is addressed to those of us outside
those situations. It's both a plea and a
challenge for us to help people in need.
There are many songs on the album that
talk directly to aperson in that situation.''
Boyce also stated that her main

to go into the world and rejoice, she also
said that if her music causes people to
