Show Signpost Tuesday, September 27, 1983 A5 ASWSC continued from front page. In other ASWSC news, Executive V.P. Sheldon Allred is currently taking applications for an opinions research chairperson. The position is needed to keep the officers in touch with student needs and concerns. Because of last year's problems with elections and student response to those problems, Allred is working on election procedure changes. Chairman of the elections committee is former ASWSC President Bruce Richeson. Changes in election procedure will include computer voting and changes in bylaws. "The committee is rewriting the bylaws and devising new more efficient procedures." Increase con't. from page 3 year the enrollment increased by over 4,000 students, which represents the student population of two Dixie Colleges, the College of Eastern Utah and Snow College combined.He said, "We somehow absorbed them without any money and still turned away 1,500 that were qualified to come to college. If this year we let in all the students who could benefit from higher education, we'd have approximately 5,00 to 6,000 new students." Van Alstyne said that Weber State had changed admission policies to discourage enrollment growth and had been able to save the quality of its instruction. Others have not faired as well. He said, "Many students have the in-telligenceand financial backing to attend college and be benefited, yet Weber State has been saying, 'I'm sorry, we can't take you.' Other students have been forced to stretch their education out five or six years while they wait in line for the classes they need." He noted that enrollment limits create an inequitable system for students and their tax-paying parents but are necessary when funds are inadeauate. "How can we support a system where some tax payers get their children in school and others do not. I have failed to hear a reasonable answer to that question," he said. He noted that the Board of Regents placed quality of education as its first priority this year even if it results in tuition sur-. charges for the students and increased enrollment restrictions. Van Alstyne said, "The time has come when the legislature needs to bite the bullet and provide more funds. We simply can't continue on current lines." 1?
