Several members of the Illinois General Assembly are backing a proposed constitutional amendment that would dramatically change the state’s legislative branch. The proposed amendment, currently tabled by the House Executive Committee, would scrap the current sys- tem of 118 one-representative districts in favor of 39 larger districts with three representatives each. Each district would elect their three representatives using a cumulative voting system, in which each voter has three votes to distribute among the candidates. With cumulative voting, “you could give all three votes to one person, or you could distribute your votes to three different people,” said Fred Nelson, legislative coordinator of the Midwest Democracy Center, a non-partisan think tank based in Chicago. “Each voter can distribute their votes how they want to.” Electing three representatives to each district allows minority parties to be heard, Nelson said. “If you’re a Democrat in a district that always elects a Amanda Douglass / Senior Photographer Republican, you’ve basically got no representation,” he said. “But with cumulative voting, it ensures that someone Members of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity (above) and Sigma Gamma Rho sorority (top) perform at the Stepping for Unity Throughout the who thinks like you will get elected.” Community: Steppers Unite and Fashion Extravaganza Thursday night in the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union Grand Ballroom.

The shuttle bus is simply not needed, especially at the outrageous price it is going to cost the student body. If the high price for a ride wasn’t a good tip-off, surely the senate members would have been concerned with the bus provider. H & H Transportation will continue to be the service provider for the shuttle system. Their performance has been mediocre at best. Why would students want to pay for shoddy service? Not only are we paying for the shoddy service, senate members gave the company a raise. These are terms everyone would like to have when they enter the working world: Do nothing, do a bad job of doing nothing, and get a raise for it. Yet another issue that did not occur to senate members was that H & H could barely do a year’s worth of service without calling it quits. What makes the Student Senate believe that they can provide the service for three years? The student body needs the student body president more than ever now. With only a short time left in office, Cox needs to veto the shuttle bus proposal. After a majority of the Student Senate let the students down, let’s hope the students’ leader won’t too.

Christopher Nolan directs this movie like “Memento” is just what people looking a man who knows a lot about noir films. for a good noir film need to see. The The director, Christopher Nolan, takes a colors are all bleak, the characters have clever and different kind of story and the traits of a femme fatale, a shady runs with it. Memento defies almost all friend and the hero who is in over his rules of cinema and it makes the movie head.
