What if they gave a student government election and nobody came? The resounding lack of interest in the recent student government election has me wondering: do you think we might as well dispense with the notion of a student council entirely, and leave the business of operating Foothill College to the sole discretion of the paid professional administration? It is doubtful that most Foothill students would accept this rash alterna tive, or view student council so coldly that its very existence is anathema. More likely, this lack of interest is a reflection of the student body's defi ciency in knowledge with regard to what exactly student council does for us and to us. The monies accrued from student body card sales are directly and legally administered by the Associated Students of Foothill College (ASFC) via elected student council members. Student body card sales are yielding an annual income of close to $200,000. That's a fair-sized chunk of change by anyone's standards, and student council members are respondible for allo cating these funds on our behalf. What is construed as "our behalf" depends on the philosophy of the student council itself, particularly the student body president. A t a recent Co-Curricular Council meeting, ASFC President Alison Good defined her administration's budget allocation philosophy as "that which serves the Letters to the editor needs of the greatest number of students." In practice, this philosophy would give first priority to improved campus Rebuttal to bureaucracy article and parking lot lighting, which was expressed as the top concern of Foothill Editor: students in a recent survey at large. found that the administrative their seemingly rude remarks I have been going to Foothill The ASFC Student Council serves as a conduit between the student body staff has been nothing but personally, and try to under for five quarters now.
