FOR DETAILS CALL 1 -800-GM-DR I VE Ct Cetera I I Compiled by Photos by Greg MacDonald Kevin Shiliingiaw News Reporter Photo Editor Students' AssociationCouncil vice-president Shirley Forde is running for president As president, she wants to lower textbook costs through the use of CAN-COPY, a license issued by publishers allowing legal photocopying of textbooks. Forde, a second-year Business Administration student, said CAN-COPY will save students 30 to SO per cent on books. She said Number's had the license for a year but hasn't used it. "It's time for our student government to step in and say 'Fine, we'll make sure it gets done'," she said. Forde said she's held important positions in student government and is not running to pad her resume. "Over the last few years we've done a lot for students," she said citing the new drug plan and funding the Health Centre as important accomplishments. johnny Megalos, presidential candidate and second-year Business Marketing student, wants to brighten student life by having more events. He also wants to help lower students' expenses by having fund-raisers. The revenue generated would subsidize expenses like tuition and parking. Megalos said he successfully co-ordinated a benefit concert involving Seneca, Centennial, George Brown, University of Toronto, Ryerson and Sheridan. An event like this, he said, "promotes togetherness." Megalos is running because "it's a very, very good experience and I believe in it I wanted to prove to myself and to everybody that this school can be a lot better." Leadership is an action, not a position," said vice-presidencial candidate Nikki Dhaliwal, a second»year Legal Assistant student Dhaliwal serves as a business rep on SAC. Her long list of experience with SAC includes Director for special events and a member of the SAACnet steering committee. She also served on the Student Issues Committee. Her goal is to continue to improve on the quali- ty of SAC services with a focus on student needs. Dhaliwal said she would also like to implement a "Students Against Solicitors" program and improve networking v(^ith other colleges and universities for Humber clubs. Vice-presidencial candidate Ryan Johns said students are "not getting the information they need. If we don't take steps now, it's going to get worse and worse." Johns, a second-year Hotel and Restaurant Management student said this year's council is out of touch. "It wouldn't take much for them to get out and show a presence. I've seen it from a stu- I dent's standpoint They're invisible," he said. Johns said he is "somebody who's outgoing, ambitious, and will get out and talk to people." Johns further expressed his dissatisfoction with the current council when explaining his reason for running, "I'm just as tired as I think everyone else is with being left out of the sit- uation. I have a voice and the students of Humber have a voice." Stelios Kypri is running for vice-president He said he plans to "improve the communicz tion between the students and SAC" and to "Improve the attitude and the positive thinking towards the school." Kypri, a first-year Business Administration student, plans to improve communication and raise SAC's profile through the use of posters, bulletins and surveys, and by having council members going out and talking to students. "I don't want SAC to have an 'I don't give a damn' attitude," he said. 'I get satlsfoction knowing I helped," said Kypri when asked why he Is running. ''k''SSii''''&ffiM . Oofiny GiZ/Jghoffl is this year's Lakeshore SAC vice-president. Gilligham, a second-year Business Administration student, running for president Gllligham said this year, getting people to attend SAC meetings has been a problem. He believes part of the reason is that honorariums, given to SAC members who have performed well, were given out for too early.To change that, Gilligham said he would give every member checkmarks for such things as attending events and meetings before giving them honorariums. Gilligham would like to better plan recreational events at Lakeshore next year. "We had some things last year that we did the year before that we'd like to redo next year. What we'd like to do is save money for the students and do more events that they actually like." Gilligham said he would like to build a games room in the cottages. "It's one of the things Chris and I said we were going to do, and we going to finish it off." ' Cameron Switnm, Lakeshore's current vice-president of Finance, has thrown his hat into the ring for the upcoming SAC election for president, in an effort to give a voice to Lakeshore's student body. "Improving student life is one of my goals if elected as SAC president," said Swimm. "The student perspective is very important and valuable to me. I really want to open up the lines of communica- tion and fully develop all areas of the Lakeshore campus." Swimm who has been an active member of Number's student government as a Business Divisional Representative for SAC and as a Director on the Council of Student Affairs, said SAC needs strong leadership. "Although I think that SAC has been providing good things for students, I would like services to become more customer oriented. We have to change our image." Matk Dewdney, a first-year Law and Security student, running for vice-president He would like to improve the frequency of student events at Lakeshore next year. 'There are a lot of events cancelled due to people not being available on council... so I'd want to change that You can't really demand things from people and expect them to get it done, but bas cally you have to make people accountable." As for the students in the cottages, Dewdney would like to get them more involved with the rest of the school. "I've heard complaints from the cottages." One thing Dewdney has to criticize is council's lack of an open-door policy. "There wasn't a feeling you could walk through the door and say 'I have this problem, I want to talk about this' or 'I have a suggestion for you'." Sonia Levy, a second-year Music student the current director of marketing for SAC at Lakeshore, is running for vice-president "Spring Fever wasn't well advertised. I'm going to do my best to follow up with the president to pull up that slack," she said. Levy would also like to encourage student involvement. There's the problem of the students who only attend classes in the cottages, the old buildings across from the main building. "I want to ensure that signs are put up there too. I've heard about the complaints and I'll do my best to be sure things are followed so they feel like a part of the school." Levy would also like to have different types of events this year. "You have to ask the students what they want because it's their student fees that are being paid. You have to try to accommodate them, (to determine) what will be special to them, be meaningful to them jason London, a second-year Business Management and Financial Services student said his close relationship widi SAC will help him represent Lakeshore's population as vice-president next year. "I've always had a close relationship with SAC, v^th past and present presidents. I think the work (this year's council) have done is a really good job." The first thing London would like to do is finish what SAC started this year, the programs they've set up for students in the main building, and continue getting them into the cottages. As for sQjdent events, he sees something lacking. "I'd like to see more promotion, more publicity. Years ago, this school had tremendous spirit a lot of peo- ple got involved. Unfortunately over the last couple of years, that's diminished. I haven't seen the participa- tion out of anybody at the school that there used to be. On a whole, the level of excitement has dropped.' He would also like to change SAC's financial planning,"What I'd like to see is for us to use our budget a litde better. We should be able to bring the school cbser together, get everybody involved. I'd like to encourage stu denu to suggest more things. I II I niBiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiriiirawiiiiiiiiiii^^^ i|Mi.i™r- #-* .

"It's a party song. It goes, 'I feel good, I knew that I would'," Greer said. "But did you really know that you would end up in the hospital after totalling your car and killing three kids?" He said the overall strategy of the ad is not to tell people "don't drink", but make people aware of the consequences and get people to understand what tiiey are getting into when they do drink. "Everything in the commer- cial is cause and effect," Greer said. The semi-finalists will now, proceed to the National Judging Panel along with semi-finalists from Atlantic Canada, Quebec, the Prairie provinces, the Northwest Territories and Western Canada.

"It is not trying to force them but it yells at them to smarten up." . Greer said the issue of responsible drinking is one he feels strongly about.
