"We are the only college library in the state that doesn't stay open all year," said Hall. The funds requested will be spent for staffing, and the expenses of remaining open year-roun- d. was requested for Urgent Student Support. The budget proposal showed that with recent growth at Dixie College, the enrollement being twice what it was three years ago, the college needed at least e five new employees to meet even minimal national and state standards for staffing. "Urgent Student Support has been a top priority on our agenda," Hall said. "It is one of the most important issues within our school right now." Dixie College recommended that an amount of $2,350,000 be dispersed to all institutions for technology. President Huddleston also listed the benefits the school has received from recent state appropriations such as the Educational Community Television Channel. The final request was for $51,600 of maintenance employees at the college. Hall argued, "This is one of the most important things in our budget request. We desperately need campus planning and reorganization of the physical facilities area." The college illustrated how it has become impossible $55,800 full-tim- Page for the current director to accom- plish the many responsiblities relating to planning, capital development, capital improvement, remodeling, maintenance, and grounds. The proposal read that they will soon divide physical facilities and campus planning into two departments. When asked by one Senator which Dixie College would rather have. Urgent Student Support Services or a tuition freeze. Hall answered the legislator by arguing that most schools have received enough funds in the past that they have extra money left over. Dixie, however, has not received that much money, therefore he requested both items be considered. According to Hall, the Utah Council of Student Body Presidents have concentrated on three agendas for the State Legislature this year: UCOPE, the state student aid funded from Utah's surplus, a tuition freeze and Urgent Student Support Services. "We are doing our best to improve Dixie College and to assist the stuHall dents in every way." expressed concern over the apathy he perceives on campus and urged all students to get involved in their future. 3 Turner esting and valuable asset to the faculty of Dixie College.
