Cheryl Moore began chapel services Tuesday, March 10, in Nunemaker Place. The services, which are every, Tuesday after at 12: 10 and go to 12:50. noon, The first half of the service is structured for prayers and scripture readings. The second half is dedicated to communion and fellowship with others in attendance and has a time set aside for prayers of the people, when people are welcome to say their own prayers in silence or aloud. JoDe student, Knutson, Moores work-stud- y plays the piano before the service and during the second half. Moore said she would like to see more students move from purely academic learning at Westminster to an education involving more holistic learning. The service was established partly to fulfill one of the goals of Westminster College's mission statement, which is to encourage students to seek intellectual, spiritual, cultural and social growth. Daily chapel services were offered at Westminster until 1967, then the college began having chapel services for special occasions only. Moore began the services again for three reasons. One, people on campus have requested a space and a need for spiritual reflection. Two, I felt the College needed services on a regular basis. The third reason was that President Dick and the Episcopalian church both were willing to back up the idea and give the services support. Moore, because she is an Episcopalian priest, uses an Episcopal service. The services are open to all students, faculty and staff of all denominations. There are a variety of denominations in attendance every week, said Moore, including LDS, Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian andother denominations, she said People are welcome to join in whatever parts of the service that they feel comfortable. On the average, six to 10 people show up for the Tuesday services. Im pleased with the amount of people who have participated This is a very good turn out, said Moore. The services are expected to continue indefinitely and will be offered through academic breaks, such as Spring Break and Christmas. There will be a special service offered on Good Friday, but a specific time is not known right now. 0 International Association of kind of fits. We feel the new policy is a hostile attempt to, if not destroy, to curtail our organization, and that to us, would signify something of war. Representatives of the student association and the administration currently are . negotiating to find a solutionto the impasse, including a possible restructuring of student government Continued from Page 2 advance, similar to a procedure followed by academic departments. Hence said he felt the change was necessary to make the student group accountable for its actions. The problem is, AUS A doesnt report to anybody, Hence told students at the rally. According to the constitution of the university, whether you like it or not, AUS A is the administration arm of the student body. The student association saw the move as an attempt by the administration to gain unnecessary control over student funds. 7 Currently, the association gets about $ 1 20,000 from the university, and its elected representatives allocate the money for such activities as guest speakers, entertainment, student groups and the newspaper. The student senate unanimously voted Jan. 23 to "declare war on the administration over the budget disagreement. Matthew Napierkowski, AUSA president, said a declaration of war was not his idea, but, If you take a look at it, I guess it Page April 7,1992 . bring the bottles back. The store will then be responsible for getting the glass institutionally recycled. Anyone interested in signing the petition should contact a WCEE member or Harrison at ext. 232. WCEE would also like to see more emphasis put on newspaper recycling. Westminster has a bin in the west Nunemaker parking lot specifically for newspaper. WCEE member Karin Rattlingourd took part in the garbage study last year and this year is helping sort through the aluminum cans left in the recycling bins by students. She said, It would really help if students would empty their cans out before throwing them out. You cant imagine how gross the bottom of the bins get with all the leftover pop that spills out, not to mention the smell. Besides digging through garbage, Harrisons environmental biology students went on a field trip to the landfill. According to Harrison, our landfill will be full in 20-3- 0 years and the major problem is that it is too expensive to create a new one. We need to teach people to reduce the amount of garbage generated, he said. Harrison said the main point of the .

Liberal Arts College Students Make War On Administration AURORA, 111. (CPS) A student government has declared war on the administration of Aurora University in a dispute over budgetary control. A Jan. 27 rally drew so many vocal students at the small, quiet liberal arts college that a local newspaper said the scene was reminiscent of the 1960s protests. Even student leaders expressed surprise at the outpouring of support. The events taking place are on a typical, conservative, apathetic small Midwestern campus. During my five years as a collegiate journalist, I have never had the opportunity to witness such an unlikely occurrence of events, said Patrick Trent Ross, editor of Auroras newspaper, the (t i(-5 488-411- 2 Viicni: 5i: wVI garbage study is to reduce garbage on campus by recycling as much as possible and to help make environmental biology students aware of how much garbage- - is generated on our campus alone. ft ;V i'ihOIi. 0 Ifu ( fy TODnSga osi(o0 ?
