"We're still in the process of taking them down." Candidates will be notified about their fines after Spring Break, Miller said. The board is trying to find out who should receive the fines after they are collected. "Well continue taking down pos ters as we find them," she said. "Well try to go through all the buildings to be fair to all of the candidates." In past elections the board has overlooked penalizing candidates, "We want to help organizations see how effective they can be, how to reach their potentials," Binzer said. The program offers organizations the opportunity to participate in various workshops on such skill areas as goal setting, publicity, group motivation, communication and stress management. "On the application for University recognition, we asked organizations to identify which skill areas they would be most interested in improv ing," Binzer said. Using information from that sur vey, the program decided to offer a workshop every other Tuesday night. Tonight's program will be held at 7 p.m. in Union Room 211.

"The purpose is to get them off the walls of the buildings, not to be spiteful," she said. "It's the candidates' responsibility to tell their campaign workers to take them down or to find out where they've been put up." At last count, the board had removed a maximum of four posters for one candidate. David Maynard, former student body president candidate, said most of his posters had been removed already. "A lot of them were ripped down as the day went along," he said. "I did not get anyone to take them down." will discuss budgeting, applying for money and fund raising. Not only does the program offer bi-monthly workshops, the PLCs are willing to go meet with the organizations at any time. Julie Trotter, a PLC, said, "We really will cater to an organization. If they tell us the time, place and subject, well be there to help. "Organizations cannot lose," she said, "because we tailor-make our workshops for what they want." On Saturday, March 19, Leader ship Matters will hold a conference in the Union from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The conference, entitled "Motivating Group Members," will include six sessions on such topics as creative leadership and team building. "With the transition to new offi cers, that would be the perfect time for groups to utilize us," Trotter said. Binzer said that organizations did not necessarily have to be experienc ing problems to attend a workshop. "There is some stigma associated with needing help," she said. "Offi cers and members should just come and learn from the other groups." The workshops are open to all Drug policy regulation of drugs on campus under the Code of Student Conduct. Under the code, illegal trafficking in the selling or transfer of drugs is punishable by expulsion, suspension or lesser sanctions, and the possession of any illegal drugs on campus is punishable by probation or lesser sanctions. Calhoun said he doesn't under stand why the BOG changed the University's previous policy. "The previous policy was reason ably effective and better," Calhoun said.

Brien Lewis, also a former student body president candidate, said he has tried to remove all of his posters. "I told people during the course of the week to tear down any posters they have seen," Lewis said. "IVe gone through every dorm on campus and every other building." Lewis said he was aware of the poster regulation. "If I'm fined $5 or $10, I won't be ecstatic, but out of 2,500 posters, that's not bad," he said. "It would be impossible, after having put. up 2,500 posters, to have all of them down." students, not just those associated with a University organization. "We had an athlete who came in and wanted to help unify her team, make them feel more like a team," Binzer said. "Anybody is welcome to use our resources." A diverse array of organizations, including Student Television, the Nursing Student Association, Lab Theatre and Alpha Phi Omega, has participated. Binzer said all the feed back from the participants has been positive. Binzer said she hoped that more organizations would take advantage of the service. Each organization receives a monthly newsletter announcing upcoming workshops. But anyone may come to the office and sign up for any of the programs, including the conference, Binzer said. Students can also apply to become PLCs after Spring Break. The Office of Leadership Develop ment is located in 01 Steele Building.

"People were responding to speeches rather than looking for the problem on campus." The resolution also cites the BOG for not including alchohol abuse in its policy. The resolution states that alchohol is "the most serious form of drug use affecting the University community." David Whichard, BOG drug policy committee chairman, said alcohol was not included in the policy since it is not considered a major drug. "The committee was assigned to study major drugs, and we did our job," Whichard said.
