As part of our commitment to serve students, The Arbiter has planned a series of in-depth articles about our-campus. The DelVing series is 14 pre-determined feature stories that really dig into certain aspects of the campus. Seven of these stories will hit you this fall-the other half will be unveiled in the spring. Health insurance will be featured in the Sept. 7 issue of The Arbiter. With only five days left for students to claim their health insurance refunds, this story will heIp students decide whether or not !2-f95" 10 keep the BSU student health insurance. The story will detail what 50 medical services the plan covers. It will also explain how to use $16 BSU's Student Health Center-and we'll tell you whether or not you need the student insurance plan to use the facility. Our Sept. 14 Delving Series article will expose the inner workings 'of ASBSU-this will include the executive branch as well as the sen- ate and judiciary. We'll let you know how you can get your student representatives working for you--or are they already? We'll look into whether or not the organization has any real power and, if it does, how you can ron for office! BSU has a pretty extensive vocational program, but this branch of the university doesn't get much attention. Vocational equity will be addressed in the Sept. 21 issue. With tuition and fees rising each II year, perhaps demand for the quicker vocational programs will rise Help Us as well. We'll give you a rundown of what BSU's vocational school offers and tell you how to get involved. . Meet Computers will be the Sept. 28 Delving Series feature. What was the born a monstrous box to process information is now a very fast sportsear on the information highway, and we'll all be roadkill if we don't understand the Internet. This technology is going to change McCain education, and we'll look into how BSU will be effected specifically. BSU has a lot of non-traditional students. On Oct. 5 The Arbiter will delve into this topic, which branches out into issues such as stu- ""';'CHALLENGE dents bringing their children into classrooms, computer labs and other campus facilities. We'll look into campus day care, and student and stack and professor attitudes toward the whole situation will be set in .black and white-perhaps we'll even throw in a little 'color if we're the stacks of feelingspendy.

Wc'lI also find out if the homeless people on the UBRARY Boise River are a safety concern for campus police and students. Finally, we'll let you know if there really arc underground tunnels for use by Physical Plant employees, The final feature for fall will be, admittedly, a sensitive one. On Oct. 19 we plan to examine religion on campus ... and lack of it. There are a lot of churches lining University Drive, for instance, and we'll let you know what's out there. This could be quite a task because there may be as many religious bCliefs as there are people. Another part of this article will look into religious bi~s in asO's class- rooms.
