A2 Thursday. The Eastern ► Editorial THE RIGHT TRACK Decisions need to stay on straight and narrow Eastern's Council on Student Affairs made well-informed decisions during its meeting Friday. Now it's up to the university's top administrators to continue in those decisions. The council passed two of three proposals from Student Association during its meeting. All hold benefit for the university's students. The technology fee would cost full-time students $50 per semester. The fee would fund 100 new computers, a new computer lab with 24-hour seven-day-a-week access for the new computers, 22 to 25 new student employees hired to work in the computer labs and various other projects. The fee was passed after two amendments that protect students were added. The amendments mandate the fee only be used for technology and that there be a committee with student representatives to determine if the fee is being spent cor- rectly. The committee would also discuss James Carroll/Progress new ideas for the fee. And the fee may end up being even less than $50 since President Robert Kustra plans to check into the university funding half of the fee. Kustra will be the Americans sacrifice truth for safely next to pass judgement on the proposal. When I was a kid. I remember carry on believing propagandist stories price to pay for freedom.
