    ELECTION SPECIAL. Monday, February 26, 1973 The vote may be one of our most cherished privileges but the educated vote is clearly more a responsibility than a right. This special issue, published jointly by the Election Committee and The Observer, was designed to offer the responsible voter a clear view of all thirteen candidates in this year's student body elections. The view of each candidate offered here has not been altered by any editorial intervention. The only guideline imposed on the candidates was the limit of one page. The art work, text and design are the work of the individual candidates. Placement in this publication was determined on the basis of random selection. This special issue is made possible through the joint cooperation of student government and The Observer and the time and trouble of Jerry Lutkus, Anthony Abowd1 Rod Braye, Joe Wilkowski, Joe Abell and John Flanni_gan.

  • Populärkulturens Utveckling, Kompendium (2)
    1970 På sjuttiotalet insåg man att det var nödvändigt att det fanns en gräns för exempelvis energiresurser och droganvändning. Därför kallas ibland sjuttiotalet för sextiotalets baksmälla. Starka politiska diskussioner växte fram om allt möjligt: feminism, miljöpolitik, sociala reformer osv. Politiken kom även att influera klädmodet en hel del vid denna period. Många upptäckte nämligen att kläder var ett värdefullt verktyg för att uttrycka sina åsikter på. Kvinnorörelserna brände sina Bh:ar och klädde sig i kostym. Amerikanska fredsdemonstranter bar militärjackor och kommunisterna bar arbetarkläder. Alla människor hade en åsikt, och därför skapades stilar där ens värderingar lyste igenom. Detta insåg även de stora designermärkena, och började därför använda detta i sina kollektioner. Under sjuttiotalet insåg många klädtillverkare att det var mycket billigare att producera sina kläder i asiatiska utvecklingsländer, och sedan sälja dem i sina egna länder. I Sverige hade vi tidigare stora klädföretag som t.ex. Algots som länge hade tillverkat och sålt sina kläder men som nu fick de läggas ner. Flytten av klädindustrin till U-länderna pressade ner priserna på kläder eftersom det var billigare att tillverka där, vilket också gjorde att det blev lättare att få tag på. Det ledde i sin tur till att fler sorters klädesplagg och stilar blev populära och folk kunde lättare skapa en personlig stil. Kortfakta 13 februari: En männniskoätande tiger uppges ha dödat 48 personer, bara 80 km från New Delhi, Indien. 3 april: En engelsk kvinna, Miriam Hargrave, klarar sitt körprov på sitt 40:e försök. Ett par naturkatastrofer inträffade, några jordbävningar. Cyklonen Bhola är det inofficiella namnet på en ovanligt destruktiv tropisk cyklon som i november 1970 drabbade Östpakistan (nuvarande Bangladesh).

I know it is hard to know what information to trust with all the information and misinformation we experience in our lives today, especially during a presidential election. Yours is a difficult job to sort through it all to make an informed decision. And while I know it is hard, I know you can and will do it. We recognize that with unlimited sources of information it can be challenging to find informa- tion that is accurate and trustworthy. Fortunately, there are some simple questions you can ask yourself to help identify misinformation: 1) Is there any data or evidence presented to support the information? 2) Does this information seem designed to push my political buttons? 3) Is there something about this information that doesn’t seem right or too bizarre to be true? 4) Who is sharing this information? 5) Does this individual or group have an agenda? Be an informed voter and don’t believe everything you see or hear.
