Others however, described Reagan's foreign policy leadership as a responsible change from the year of the Carter-Mondale indecisiveness; perceived as equally dangerous to World Peace. Sn terms of social issues and leadership in general, Mondale supporters claimed a conflict of church and state under the Reagan administration, and a lack of social justice. On the other hand , Reagan represented to the majority of this nation, "leadership that works," and a faith in the individual; an ideal on which even Professor Maisel would agree, "this country was founded. " Although each of the op- posing views deserves a much more detailed explanation , it is simply my intention to state that the majority of young people in this country — Democrat and Republican alike — cast their vote responsibly and with a great deal of thought according to the principles in which they believe. I hope that in the elections to follow, young people will again resist the temptation of narrow and generalized political analysis.

You can always go back and re-learn it later for an exam, instead of clogging your head with it now." Well, actually, 1 didn't take a single note, and neither did anyone else in the class.

I have to confess that today's lecture was a "special topic." That is, one that the professor is interested in , but outside the scope of the.cojurse cur- riculum and therefore will not find its way onto an exam (I hope).

We're professionals in the bud. Either get out of our way or help smooth that way. It 's no surprise that students and Yup- pies voted similarly, as we have the same thing at heart: ourselves. A final thought: last year I heard a radio program in which a long-time correspondent told of foreign attitudes toward America. He said that the one thing that sticks out, no matter where in the world he goes, is the popular belief that if the American people knew the truth about a certain injustice, they would force their government to right the wrong. So strong is the international belief in the American sense of justice and fair play. And now? Dr. Spot by Cay
