GEORGE-ANNE 4 Monday, March 29,2004 Our Opinion Important constituent of level playing field' absent from SGA ballot on WINGS
Last year, two SGA presidential candidates took a case to GSUs » 4 Judicial Affairs, one candidate specifically citing that he thought the elections were not a "level playing field." Proceedings in this years voting have been level so far this year, but that might be because nearly every candidate is playing for the same team. Having a majority of candidates working together isn't necessarily a bad thing, leaving them with a great deal of time to carefully plan out their administration in the coming year to provide students with the best public service they're capable of providing. On the other hand, the lack of challengers sets the elections in a vacuum, removing all of the competition of differing thought and ideas.

Both the college and the town were very small before the growth began and we really cannot blame ourselves for our ignorance and mistakes.

Kerry felt pain when he picked up a baby while greeting voters recently, Wade said. Wade said the surgery would be an hour long outpatient procedure at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He said Kerry made the appointment Saturday after reaching his doctor, who was on vacation. Wade said Kerry was having the surgery "for convenience, just to get it done."
