Many have asserted, without even having seen the movie, that its plot is sacrilegious. Some have claimed the movie makes a mockery of Christian beliefs. Still others say it inaccurately portrays Jesus Christ in a negative light. They will never see it. That is their choice. Though there were continued criticisms, some who did view the film (including several clergymen) in selected areas, reviewed it as a religious masterpiece. They were given the opportunity to see it, and they did. That was their choice. But because of the efforts of those who objected to the film, certain areas, including Auburn, will not be given that same opportunity. Those who do not have the means to venture to another city will never see it, but not necessarily by choice. As a religious topic, any misrepresentation of fact is, quite simply, a matter of each individual's beliefs. For that reason, viewing the movie should be a personal choice. But those who have protested the film don't see it that way, and seem to feel it is their place to assure we are not led into Temptation. The Plainsman appreciates there are those who feel strongly enough about an issue to exercise their freedom of assembly, but feel theaters that deny viewers the opportunity to see a film bas- on such protests violates everyone's rights of free choice.

Lesson one. It's easier to spend money than get money. Lesson two. It's hard to buy a hamburger on credit. Moral being, don't wait for experience as a teacher. Sign up now for the campus meal plan. That way, you're guaranteed three square meals a day. (Actually, there are a variety of different meal plans you can sign up for.) Whichever you choose, you'll be safe. And you'll also be smart. Because campus meal plans can save you a bundle. There's probably no less expensive way to eat well. So sign up soon. Later on, you still may be broke. But you'll never be hungry.
