"Without knowledge we can't overcome ig- norance," Henry Marsh said at Alpha Phi Alpha's 79th anniversary celebration in the Phillips Center ballroom. Marsh, who now is a Richmond councilman, said young blacks must derive strength from the accomplishments of their forefathers. His speech was titled "Completing the Revolu- tion: The Efforts of Blacks to Correct the Defects in the Government System of Virginia." Six percent of the students at JMU are black, Marsh said. Without the Supreme Court's 1954 decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which declared the segregation of school systems il- legal, there would be no black students anywhere, he said. Despite this decision, prior to 1965, blacks continued to be discriminated against, Marsh said. Black unemployment was much higher than white unemployment, and in Richmond the few blacks who held administrative positions were there only as tokens. A big turnaround came in 1965 when the Voting Rights Act was passed, he said. By 1974 the percentage of blacks employed in Richmond had grown to equal the percentage of blacks liv- ing in Richmond. Blacks also had begun to hold legitimate administrative offices. The problem today is that many people think the revolution is over, but it isn't, Marsh said. The average income for blacks still is only 52 per- cent of the average white income, and black L, .. , " . Staff photo by E.J.

The Breeze, Monday, December 9, 1985, page 5 Copy card use growing here By Mike Wilson staff writer Copy cards "are definitely catching on" at JMU, the manager of vending services said. The copy card system was installed over Christmas break last year. This year its use has "increased tremendously," Don Blume said. Last year only about a fourth of the copying business was done by copy cards, and much of that was by faculty, Blume said. This year about two- thirds of the business is by cards, and most of it is by students. Copy cards cost $5 and can be used for 100 copies. They are sold at the circulation desk of Carrier Library and at Mr. Chips. Before the card system was installed, copies cost 5 cents each. Now it costs 10 cents to make a copy without a card. "A lot of people were coming from off campus to take advantage of the low price," Blume said. The department of vending services decided that people who do not pay to use the facilities here should pay the 10 cents that copies cost in most other places. Although non-students can purchase copy cards, the system was designed to encourage students to take advantage of the low price, while discourag- ing non-students. Copy cards allow students to make multiple copies by selecting the number of copies they want on a dial or digital counter. The card no longer works when the student has used all 100 copies. Before the card system was installed, the only way to make multiple copies was to use a metered key device called an auditron, Blume said. Students could check the auditron out at the cir- culation desk of the library and it would count the number of copies they made. When they were finished, students would pay the circulation desk 5 cents for each copy. The problem with this system was that there was only one auditron, Blume said. Copy cards were the natural extension of this system, he said. They are simpler to use than the auditron and six copiers can be used at the same Staff photo by MING LEONQ time. The popularity of copy cards on campus has increased since the system was installed last Cards can be used on the four copiers in Carrier year. The cards cost $5 and can be used to make 100 copies.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 19, 12-5 p m^UUSCH Busch Gardens Hastings Theatre Page 18, The Breeze, Monday, December 9, 1985 Viewpoint SGA review J.R. Rose At last, it has been a positive semester for the JMU Student Govern- ment Association. Despite a semester basically empty of important student issues or conflicts with the administration, the SGA managed to provide leader- ship, take initiative and act quickly when it counted most. Their action in helping to get a commencement ceremony for December graduates was especially notable because it responded to students who voiced their wishes. The SGA acted quickly and with a minimum of discussion on an issue clearly having a large amount of student support. More than 300 students will be able to attend a ceremony where last year they had to wait until May. The administra- tion listened and action was taken. The SGA has also supported the upcoming Constitution bicenten- nial celebration, which JMU hopes to hold here. For this celebration to be something the entire school can be proud of, student involvement is essential and student government is the place to start. The SGA has shown a leadership role in supporting the flood relief efforts going on since last month's rainfall. In fact, the entire student body deserves thanks for all charity fundraising efforts this semester, not only with flood relief, but with the Jim Mountain fund and Logan's Run. Many of the bills proposed in the SGA this semester showed much more thought and importance than in the past. There seem to be fewer bills on superfluous items (such as juke boxes in D-Hall) and more bills concerning real student needs (such as raising the contract amount at PC Dukes). On the negative side, however, the mock election was again poorly organized and poorly attended. There should be a better way to estimate student political thought, or in getting students interested in a seemingly meaningless election. Also, work has yet to begin on the Spring graduation ceremony. With many students pushing for a modified satellite graduation ceremony, which many faculty and the administration support, something should have been started earlier to get student feedback on the proposed change. Waiting probably will put off a decision until next year and that does this year's graduates no good. For the most part, though, it's been a productive semester, con- sidering the lack of real issues with which to deal. Let's hope next semester continues this trend.
