It could get worse. State campus budgets, Dukakis said during a March hearing on college savings bonds, "cannot be expected to continue to grow at anything like the rate they have over the past few years." Some students, however, are upset most by Dukakis' support of a measure that would allow schools to keep excess revenues generated by tuition hikes. The tuition re­ tention plan, student leaders say, encourage colleges to raise their prices.

And Vincent McGrath, (RING 422-2434 president of the State College Faculty Association and a Sa­ lem State College professor, said tuition increases are often determined by what private colleges charge, even though private schools "can't keep their o'Wn costs down." McGrath also thinks Dukakis tends to bow to the traditional dominance of pri­ vate colleges in Massachuetts. "We aren't , we're not Texas and we're not Michi­ gan," Dukakis said during a 1986 Boston interview. "We do happen to have some of the finest [private] institu­ tions in the world.

The major concern was that there wouldn't be l'L~ & ON MY WAY. enough students attending due to the Labor Day weekend and the time of the rally being so close to kickoff. As it turned out, the only thing that there wasn't enough of was space. No matter what approach students chose to take for the visit, it was extremely exciting to see every­ body actually getting involved in the way that they saw fit. ,, Quayle supporters were the majority, as they pranced around in the humid, overcrowded SCA sporting standardized and safe Bush/Quayle signs. For the conservatives who were attending the rally before the game, the gathering proved to be a great spirit booster. One thing for sure, Quayle certainly knew who his audience was. It was apparent that he was even aware of the football game that came after his performance as he played off the excitement projected from the stu­ dents. Quayle wasted no time in bashing the Democrats and took special notice of the anti-Dukakis banners covering the walls. . The issues he discussed were vague, yet direct Old-time rock calls up old times enough to get roaring approval from his audience. On the other hand, there was another aspect of I am scribbling this on a small notepad, while I stand next to the stage at Little Darlin's Rock 'n'Roll involvement that was apparent during the visit: the Lounge in Kissimmee.

Success hasn't spoiled Michelle Akers. After reaching the NCAA Women's Soccer Tour­ nament quarterfinals with UCF, earning second team All-American honors, and being selected the Soccer America Women's Collegiate Player of the Year, thefifth-yearseniorfromSeattle, Washington, has her head on straight and her ego in check. "I don't feel that an award should change a person," she said. "It was an honor," she said of the player-of-the­ year selection, "but all it has really done for me is boost my confidence." "When I'm down, or I've played poorly, I can look at the award and know that I'm capable of playing at that level," she said. Among Akers' goals for this, her last soccer season at UCF, is to be selected Player of-the-Year again. She realizes that will be difficult. "It would be like winning the Reisman Trophy twice, but I've got to go for it," she said. One thing the award has done is make her a target for opposing teams. "Other teams have known who I was before this, Michelle Akers has helped kick the Lady Knights into.national prominence. Her efforts were rewarded last but now they'll all be looking for me.
