c Thinik hard before i using illegal drugs The recent death of Keith T. Ennis '84 is a tragic example of what can happen when people use illegal drugs carelessly. Ennis died of oxygen deprivation after inhaling nitrous oxide while alone in a locked room. 6 A person's decision whether or not to use illegal drugs is 5 based upon the accumulation of years of growth and many ex- L e periences. If you have decided to experiment with illegal drugs, no matter what anyone says about them, you are probably not E going to change your mind now. The important point is this: If 5 you decide to use illegal drugs, be smart about it. Know what you are taking, what the possible effects are, and above all, never take illegal drugs while alone. The horror stories about drug abuse are true. Great tragedies - like Ennis' death - have occured due to drug usage, and will continue to occur. No one is too smart to be free from these consequences. One day "the other guy" might be you.

Your effort is com- mendable but in my mind it does not seem to address the right problem, which is that of lack of publicity for the meaningful activities of the UA and especially my group. The MIT community does not know that the UA So- cial Council exists and is func- tioning, for the most part due to The Tech. The Tech, under the pretense of being a "real newspaper," re- At fuses to write about something that has not happened yet (and therefore is not "real news").

It seems to me that pre-event knowledge is part of a paper's responsibility, at least to the same extent as record and restaurant reviews. The Tech, as the major communication link to the entire campus and undergraduate comrnunity, should not relegate campus-wide social events solely to advertise- ments. The Tech, through its report- ing, has refused to acknowledge Social Council's involvement in the planning of Spring Weekend and its activities.

Th7 is Who I I ?

Andrew S. Gerber '87 Production Staff Night Editor Volume J 04

"Back in New Jersey, I worked on my high school yearbook. We would always type our articles on regular paper and send them away to the publisher. It was always a mystery how the yearbook turned out the way it did. "I came to The Tech during the first week of classes, and immediately gravitated torward the production shop, where I could learn exactly how typesetting and layout are done; it wasn't a mystery any more. I worked as a production staffer for a while, became more involved, and was elected night editor by the Board for Vol- ume 104. Tech photos by Simson L. Garfinkel

I "As night editor, I'm responsible for the layout and design of a given issue. I start out with a list from each department of how much space they need in the issue. Two days before the issue comes out, with the help of the production staff, I lay out the ads and do a preliminary layout of the articles in the issue. On issue night, I receive the copy from editor in chief, I run it off on our typesetter, and see that it is pasted up properly. It is my responsibility to see that the paper is completed and taken to the printer. "Stop by any tiIme, and I'll be happy to show you how we produce a newspaper. ,9
