If members of the Student Government Association don't gettheiracttogetherquickly, this year's Homecoming maybe next year's flop. Although there has been a lot of hype about resurrecting (It's been at least four years.) the1radition of Homecoming on this campus, not much -- if any -- action has been taken to make it a reality. Many groups, including the University Program Board and the Greeks, have talked about it and made suggestions but so farit has all come to naught. Why? During the last SGA meeting, members still could not agree on the date to be set for homecoming. Suggestions were made and rejected for dates in November and Decem­ ber. Reasons forthe rejection varied from being inconvenient for some organizations to infringing on valuable study hours during finals. The result is that Homecoming is being pushed toward a tentative date in January. January? Then when? Traditionally, most universities make their homecoming a weekend party filled with parades, dances and a football game.
