Teams will compete for the championship Wednesday night in areas ranging from Arts and Literature to History to Sports and SUSCs fraternities and sororities died out in the 1970s because students became more individualistic, says Vice President for Student Services Sterling R.

THE STUDENT NEWS AND VIEWS OF SOUTHERN UTAH STATE COLLEGE CEDAR CITY, UTAH Education lobby seeks increase BY KRIS JOHNSON The Utah State Legislature is screwing up education by putting us on the back burnef, said SUSCs delegate chairwoman for the Utah Intercollegiate Assembly. Monica Moe and several other UIA delegates representing all facets of higher education statewide are vigorously lobbying the Utah State Legislature to pass a state tax increase for education. Were lobbying for the entire educational system and we want the money going to education and nowhere else, said Moe. Our number one goal is to pass a tax increase with the stipulations that any increase will go toward education. According to many officials, Utahs entire educational system is in serious jeopardy due to a large deprivation in financial funding. There are crying needs within the education system going unfunded. We risk a great deterioration of education in the future, said Vice President for College Relations Michael D. Richards. This is an important issue, said Moe. If we don't get the legislature to recognize education soon, then the college will start losing grants, it will be harder to get loans, and school supported programs will be cut. Everyone will suffer in the long run.

SNELL As of May 1, people trying to spice up their lives with clove cigarettes, called kreteks, found it hard to do. The cigarettes, imported from Indonesia, India, and Jamaica, are now illegal to sell in Utah. Any person who knowingly sells, offers for sale, gives or furnishes any clove cigarette in this state, is guilty of an infraction, reads Utah House Bill 30, introduced by Kaye Browning and Kevin C. Cromar in the 1986 General Session. Regional House Representative Hayes Hunter said the reason for this ruling is that they are much more dangerous than tobacco cigarettes. If the young people in this state are going to smoke, we want them smoking regular tobacco cigarettes which are less dangerous, Hunter said. (continued on page 3) |
