TTERS TO THE EDITOR What do you do for fun during Some students have voiced their opinion about the Chanticleer's "Question of the Week": What is your answer your free time to the parking hassle here at JSU? Almost any student at JSU will agree that hunting a parking space is just about the worst part of a student's day. On some more congested days, cars are parked EVERYWHERE! The closest --Compiled by Frtiz Fotovich parking space may be a block away, and down a hill. Some students have suggested ways to solve this problem, and I do mean PROBLEM. Some suggested walk- ing, which would not be a problem unless you are a student who lives over 15 miles away, has to commute, has to be at your next class on the opposite end of campus 15 minutes after the first class, or has a health problem that "I wonder what would happen If I restricts you from walking long distances. This solution is obviously not for everyone, but can work for some stu- sent a slice of cheese overseas." dents: those without a car, those needing a little exercise, and those without a tight class schedule. Another option that students are mentioning is a new parking lot. As one lady stated, using LESS cars would be "better for the campus and the environment." So more parking lots would mean, first of all, expense. I am not Kimberly Brown, Freshman so sure students are willing to pay more tuition or pay whatever other fee could be placed on the students to build more parking lots. Next, more parking lots would mean a less attractive environment for the campus. Therefore, I propose that the student government encourage the school to install a busltrolley (or multi-busltrol- ley) system. A student could work as a driver, mechanic, etc. This would provide transportation for many stu- dents on campus, especially those without a car. This would make the campus a much less congested area. Second, ONE automobile would be much better for the environment than many other automobiles. Also, students "I enjoy lozterzng on the porch of could save money on gasoline and students would be able to "save the grass." Rowan Hall, and makzng up new Also, if students were to find themselves suddenly needing a ride because their ride left, they were drinking, or their car broke down, there would be a safe alternate way to get home. So, instead of banning cars or promoting inconvenient car pools, I suggest that the students and the school con- David Chambers, Freshman sider a busltrolley route. Three good things to remember: 1. Student Employment Opportunities, 2. Mass Transportation, and 3. Better Campus Environment. I am very interested in knowing other student's points of view on the parking hassle at JSU, so PLEASE write the Chanticleer and let everyone know how you see it!

~ ~ -~- Mr. Hopkin, I am a Phi Mu Alpha Brother and also a member of the marching Southerners. I read the Chanticleer weekly, and until these past couple of weeks, I was pleased with the product. My main complaint about your articles is, Trevor T. Buford, Senior there was no need for them to be printed. A simple write up in the crime docket would have been plenty. The arti- cle I felt slandered two of the most productive organizations on this campus. Why was there not anything said about how the party was an outlet after a full 10 days of 8:30 am- 10:30 pm rehearsals to produce a marching show to entertain thousands of people? Why was there not anything said about the Drum and Bugle Corps Show, spon- "I go to the bars and play my sored by Phi Mu Alpha and the Marching Southerners? This 4 hour even brought in more people than any foot- cello and study chemistry.'" ball game last year. Why was there nothing mentioned about the Band Day, sponsored by Phi Mu Alpha, which brought over 400 high school students to the campus, all leaving with JSU first on their minds for a college? I really think that before you print such articles in your paper, you should first look at what the organization does Jose Rodriguez, Senior for this University, and what articles such as the two printed can do to their reputations! Hopefully, in the future, there will be positive articles about the Marching Southerners, and Phi Mu Alpha print- ed in your paper rather than the negative ones!

Doug Butler, Freshman Last Monday night, the Student Senate passed Resolution 1 at its first meeting making it the first order of busi- ness this year. This is to signify the importance in this situation and the Student Government Association's dedi- cation to the cause. There are roughly fifty people who hold office in the SGA, but every student at Jacksonville State University is a member.
