Arguably one of the biggest campaign lies Cougill told in 1993 was that he would "not, not, not change the bar-entry ag~." .. ,-..!•,n;,11_, Despite being quoted in both The News and the Charleston limes-Courier on April 14, 1993, Cougill now denies saying it. About one year later in 1994, the city council voted to raise the bar-entry age from 19 to 21. At the same time he swore never to change the bar-entry age, he also promised to offer students some bar alternatives • such as juice bars, coffee houses and comedy clubs. Now, while Cougill is running for office again, Charleston offers few entertainment options to students under 21. It seems Cougill doesn't care. Obviously he didn't care about the student body in 1994 when he refused to speak to The News for no less than six months because of a few per­ sonal-opinion columns. He didn't care that The News is the main source of Charleston information to the student body. Cougill simply ignored 10,000 students - half of Charleston's population - by not allowing them to know what was taking place in the community. Cougill's actions in the last four years have proven he is not ; 'if an honest mayor, nor is he concerned about Eastern's student block of $8,000 from the Division of tures offered for the next fiscal Chris Maniatis, both of 1022 Taylor Hall, reported that her Fourth Street.
