Show October 22, 1982 Forum Farley Marriott Debate (continued from page Page 3 Westminsters 1) we are. Marriott said he voted against a peacetime draft. Draft is unfair and ought not to be used except in cases of dire emergency. Please state your reasons for supporting the balanced budget amendment and for believing it will be effective. I was one of the I MARRIOTT: He said that will continue to work for it government has consistently spent more than they take in. According to Marriott, that is the root of all of our problems. He said it means that with a $113 billion debt, that 13 of the budget pays interest on the national debt. If you want more jobs, less inflation and lower interest rates, then government better get its act together. My number one priority will be to get the government out of debt. Get tax cuts in place, get the government out of the way and you will see some economic turn around. Travels Through Time rs. ... FARLEY: You cannot balance a budget when you take in less money than you spend. The country will not recover until this can be done. Farley claimed that no one is looking at the defense budget for cuts. She discussed the disadvantages of the MT tank and MX as examples of defense spending that need to be cut. Marriott twisted in his chair as Farley told the audience that Marriott had told her that if she went for a ride in an M'l tank that she would be in favor of it, too. Marriott countered this statement asking, When have you ever seen a Democrat balance the budget? We are the ones to initiate the balanced budget amendments. Every balanced budget proposal we put up last year, they defeated. Campus Reactions to Debate Maggie Aloia said she thought Marriott seemed very argumentative and hostile from the beginning. I have never been a strong party person. she said, I may not cast a vote for either party. I may vote Libertarian this election. She said she would like to see more women in the political system of this country. We can never maintain a in science if people long-ter- m edge do not go to college reaction to women taking precautions to avoid pregnancy from rape is that is is patently absurd, said Mike Popich. Farley understood the significance of education and funding for it is right on the beam, he said, but its a question whether she can do anything about it in Congress. Education is that important, Popich said. We can never maintain a long-teredge in science if do not go to college. Sometimes students need people a lot of funding so that they dont have to work even part-timPopich said he would have liked the candidates to answer questions from the floor. There could My m e. have been more discussion, he said. After the debate was over some students reactions included the following remarks: Marriott put the gun up to his head when he talked about rape. Another student said, Marriotts basic argument was aligning himself with Reagan because in Utah Reagan is so popular.

"To the Trustees of Sheldon Jackson College: Your committee appointed to communicate Dr. Jackson ami the Presbyterian BoarJ of Directors for Colleges and Academies, in reference to changing the name of the College, and also to select another name, uoulj report that they have prepared a legal form of i release, ami forwarded the same to the abooe parties for their signatures. After conferences uith several of the Trustees and ct far friends of the Institution in regari to the name, the Committee is in favor of calling it Westminster College. Those Uho haoe been spoken to favor this name. It has the advantage of being signijicant, and of needing no explanation, U'hile it is not sectarian. For these reasons the Committee is unanimously in favor of the name Westminster. Respectully submitted R. S. AL'Xizer, Grover Bailey, sponts E. B. Critchloio, and S. N- - Martin And so the name of Sheldon Jackson College became Westminster College, a name representing at least three evangelical churches and giving the school a broader denominational base. Although Westminster was established by Presbyterians as a Presbyterian institution, and by its charter is held loyal to Presbyterian ideals, the Trustees agreed that it shall henceforth be operated equally in the interest of all nominations. Other leading denominaevangelical tions have expressed their willingness to cooperate in building up Westminster rather than establish a rival institution in a field only large enough for one good Christian College. At that time, four denominations were represented on the Board of Trustees and four on the faculty. Locally, there was unanimous approval of this union effort in Christian education. The name was chpsen by the Trustees, with full consent of the founder, Dr. Jackson. It was thought that financial aid for the College would be more readily available if the school were not named for a living man. Prior to 1910, Salt Lake Collegiate Institute had been maintained under the separate management of the Boards of Home Missions. In that year this management was transferred to the Trustees of Westminster College. The Collegiate Institute then became known as the Preparatory Department of the College. By the beginning of the year 1912, the work on the College and Collegiate Institute was established on the new campus and operated as one institution. The Salt Lake Collegiate Institute was one of four Protestant schools in Salt Lake City whose object was to supply the people with American education graded schools. It was in no sense a through first-clarival of the public schools. The opening of the public schools reduced the need for a private graded school in the community, allowing the Collegiate Institute to devote itself to strictly academic work." The school was not prepared to provide the final a step of the Presbyterian educational system area. the Intermountain college serving Weber vs Westminster Game Tied Homecoming and cheerleaders gold streamers, their voicing support, and a large crowd of enthusiasts cheered Westminsters mens soccer team to a 3 tie in the 1982 Homecoming game against Weber State.
