Those who happen to glance through these columns may have noticed that student government has lately come under scrutiny. It's a good time for students at MSU to question what's going on around here. The regular university administration is not the only body deserving of criticism. Perhaps most readers would rather disregard terms like "ideals" and "competency." So let's talk about something closer to home. Money. The "annual budget poll" presently being conducted by the Legislative Research Committee indicates that each student now pays S13.70 per quarter or S41. 10 per year in activity fees. That's a yearly total of about $280,000 from activity fees alone. "The remaining $200,000 is other income, mostly gate receipts from Entertainment and Athletic events and advertising revenue." So where do our priorities lie? In the weirdest damn places, it appears. Who gets the big cuts out of the pie? $4,000, MSU's share of hiring a student lobbyist to go up to Helena and ... ?

Production costs are so high and the staff is forced to play salesmen as well as yearbook staff resulting in a much needed study of this campus tradition. Intercollegiate Varsity Athletics gets $87,288 of your activity fees. How many of you go to all the games? Any games? You still pay. Things vital to the academic excellence of MSU come out that money. Things like first class jet travel for teams, full-ride scholar­ ships and subsidizing a free training ground for professional athletes. Another one that should pay for itself at the gate.
