But then again, FSU had two goals taken away from them on penalties, so the Dons should be grateful as they kept their national ranking in the Soccer The WCC "player of the year" candidate is the only player in the conference who currently ranks among the WCC's top-5 for season hitting percentage (2nd, .34) kill America Poll at number 14.

"OUR VISION, OUR VOICE!" Kevin Blokker Non-Resident Commuter Students Representative Office Hours: Monday 12:00- 1:30pm Friday 12:00-1:30pm The beginning of the school year brought with it more than just the reality of a long semester ahead. It started with a big suprise. During our first senate meeting, it was brought to my attention that the Board of Trustees had decided to phase out nearly half of the on- campus parking. The university has a long term plan for a parking garage under Ulrich field, but has not yet found the funds for it. In the meantime, they plan to throw more commuter students into the streets. So here are a few of my plans: 1. I will try to delay the plans to eliminate parking, at least until the university has found a new way to fund parking alternatives. 2. I want to find an effective way to keep cummuter students informed happenings on campus. 3. I plan to submit articles to the Foghom on a regular basis to keep you, the commuter, informed. 4. If the idea of the campus mail boxes goes into effect, I hope to distribute flyers for your benefit.

If you have any questions or ideas on how I can bettter serve you, please feel free to stop by during my office hours. Paid advertisement Marta Nichols Representative, Arts and Sciences
