The SUSC Institutional Council was to select a contest winner at its December meeting, but decided in the interest of time to extend the contest until after the first of the year. There have been several good names submitted, Institutional Council Chairman Dale Zabriskie said, but we decided when time started to run out at our Friday meeting that an extension would give us more time to make a decision, and give those who missed the first deadline a chance to submit their name or names for the new building. The name for the 105,000 square foot structure should be one that best captures the character of the structure, SUSC President Gerald R. Sherratt said, and one that reflects the character of the institution and of southern Utah. Entries must be submitted no later than Jan. 6.

He had the most experience in that area and seemed like he could see both sides of a situation. The basic functions of the Publications Council are to approve the budgets, appoint the editors and business managers (of the publications) and hear complaints from people on campus, explains Baker. The council underwent some changes when new bylaws which allowed more student input and control were approved by the Institutional Council earlier this year. The changes were made to correct some inconsistensies in the old laws, indicates Baker. The old bylaws gave the power to the faculty. Also, it allowed editors of these publications to be on the board setting policy for themselves and we didnt feel that was in keeping with what we wanted to do, he said.

Flu season hits SUSC Influenza (or flu) is a viral infection of the bronchial tube and lungs that can make someone of any age ill. Usually the flu occurs in the United States from about November to April. If you get the flu, you usually have fever, chills, cough, and soreness and aching in your back, arms, and legs. Although most people are ill for only a few days, some persons have a much more serious illness and may need to go to the hospital. On average, thousands of people die each year in the United States from the flu or its complications. Because influenza is usually mild and most people recover fully, vaccination of healthy children and adults is not routinely recommended. The elderly and people with other health problems are most likely to be seriously ill or to die from the flu or its complications. For example, people who after even light exercise become short of breath due to diseases affecting their heart or lungs, and persons who have low resistance to infections, are likely to be more seriously affected by the flu. Thus, the following groups are at high risk for serious illness with the flu and have been recommended to receive vacciPe: 1. People 65 years of age or older even if they do not have any of the other health problems described below. 2. People of any age who: a. have certain heart, lung, or kidney problems (including children with cystic fibrosis or severe asthma). b. have a type of cancer or immunological disorder (or use certain types of medicine) that lower the bodys normal resistance to infections. c. have diabetes. d. have severe anemia ( low blood). The influenza vaccine is available at Student Health Service for $4.00 for those desiring to receive it. ' |
