We would like anyone who is interested in writing for The Thundcrbird to come to one of the staff meetings, which are held every Monday at 4 p.m., Jensen said. We have openings for newswriters, entertainment writers, sportswriters, feature writers, cartoonists, and photographers. To write on The Thundcrbird you dont have to have be involved with the journalism department or have any previous experience on a newspaper, said Jensen. Right now, I think there are fewer than 10 journalism majors on staff. I feel that since our writers are good, why should their majors matter to anyone?

But, the Russians curriculum in computer science is archaic compared to the American curriculum, says Cotts. As of now, there are no computer science classes taught at all along the way up through high school. As of next year, Russian students in the ninth and tenth grades will be exposed to computer science. Where they will get the computers from, Cotts says he hasnt the faintest idea. From the information Cotts received, professors make about $200 a month, pilots $700 and the better ballerinas of the Bolshoi Ballet make about $1000 a month. Rent hardly ever takes more than 10 percent of your salary and all schooling and health care is free. Cotts found the Russians he talked to uniformly loyal to the motherland. Only five percent of the Soviet population is Communist but that five percent exercises enough power to rule the whole nation. Being a member of the Communist party is a lifelong devotion, beginning in primary school. Religious w'orship is in no way prohibited by the state nor is it encouraged. I suspect that if you want to ride in society then you said Cotts. We felt completely safe walking are not a chuch-goethrough the streets even late at night.
