A PAGE 2 ROSE THORN FRIDAY, MAY 8, 1987 Opinions and Columns EDITORIAL Since this is the last regular issue of the "Thorn" for the 1986-1987 school year, we thought we'd get it out of our system and write several mini-editorials covering a wide range of topics. - - - The first subject of conversation is our favorite, SGA. After a budget hearing process that resembled an inquisition at times, SGA has come up with an operating budget for next year. The noteworthy part is that "service" clubs occupy the top eight positions on the distribution list. The top eight moneywinners for next year include SAB, WMHD, the "Thorn," Rose Bands, Drama Club, Rose Technic, Glee Club and Modulus. These clubs, which exist primarily to provide a service to the student body, are scheduled to receive approximately three-fourths of the SGA funds next year. It seems that SGA has decided to give more support to clubs that serve the student body and place special interest groups on the backburner. I'm glad to see that SGA is putting the money where it will reach the most students.

Another good mark for SGA. It is my understanding that after careful thought, the Executive Council decided to count "zero" votes. In the past, representatives who allocated no money for a club had that vote altered or discarded when it came time to average the ballots. Thus, SGA appears to have decided that a vote is a vote.

Now we get to pat ourselves on the back. Although people don't like Bloom County, it appears that those higher up think quite a deal about the strip. We have been informed that Berke Breathed was named the winner of the 1986 Pulitzer Prize for political cartoonist. It's just another service we provide.

Time for bad news. After careful thought, the current editor suggested to the incoming editor that the "Thorn" should no longer sell subscriptions.
