If humans were more like animals, what would be different? Stay tuned for changes These were just a few of the questions Sandy Cox, assistant director of Eastern’s counseling center, asked students at the pre- sentation titled “If Animals Could Talk” held Tuesday evening in the Charleston/Mattoon Room of the Martin Luther King, Jr. University Union. The presentation held did not have a scientific approach. It was simply a discussion of how people perceive animal’s feelings and how we can relate to them. “The two main feelings people think animals feel are fear and grief because they are the most observ- able,” Cox said. Students agreed that animals express fear better than humans do. Examples of animals that show fear very well were dogs, horses, snakes and turtles. Dogs tend to cower when they are afraid, horses run away, snakes hiss and rattle and turtles go inside their shells. “For humans, fear is often seen as a weakness. For animals, fear is an instinct. Humans defend their feelings and emotions more,” Cox said. Fear is often a problem for peo- ple who are in relationships. People may have a fear of commitment or rejection, she said. As a result of Kate Mitchell / Staff photographer hiding fear in relationships, there are often many misunderstandings.

The Student Senate will discuss a resolu- tion tonight recommending the Gregg Triad computer lab remain open until 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. The meeting is at 7 p.m. in the Arcola/Tuscola Room of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union. Currently, the Triad Computer Lab is only open until 4:45 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. The resolution will recommend extending the Computer Lab hours “in order to facilitate the educational process.” Last semester, the Student Senate passed a resolution recommending the hours be extended from 4:45 p.m. until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturdays, and this semester the hours of the computer lab returned to 4:45 p.m., said Adam Weyhaupt, speaker of the Kate Mitchell / Staff photographer Student Senate.

Lou Hencken, vice president for student affairs, has said previously that he realizes the students have been feeling deceived when it comes to the food court because of the delays and restructured plans. It’s good the administration knows it has let down students, but that does nothing to rem- edy students’ skepticism when it comes to construction schedules.
