Simpson crowned Homecoming Queen

by by Philip Athnger and Chris Cohurd Chanticleer News writer The five finalists for Homecoming Queen did not know who among them was to be selected. Above, Klansman in the stands, students, friends and loved ones smiled, waved, and photo-graphed, all hopeful that by College Press Services their choice might be the winner. Shiela Evans, our 1995 Homecoming Queen, stood ready to crown one of the five. The suspense finally ended during the halftime ceremonies when the name of Niyah Simpson was announced as our Homecoming Queen for.1996. University-Northridge. Ms. Simpson was ecstatic once she heard her name. Ms. Evans had to hold Simpson's shoulder to place the crown upon her head. Afterwards, she had few words that could adequately describe her excitement. "I'm so excited ...I just feel so pourd to represent Jacksonville State in this way." Wendi Lemond, R.A. for Patterson Hall and a supporter was given a forum to express his views. for Simpson, expressed her enjoyment of the event. "A more deserving candidate couldn't have won, " she said, adding that she believed Simpson to be a "well-rounded candidate." Allen Reynolds, SGA Director of Publicity, was very p1,eased with the increased student interest generated by this year's Queen until the half-time festivities. It did seem to give the Homecoming

Of course, we should say that according to Chief Tubbs, of UPD, this is not entirely true. At the last SGA meeting, Tubbs said that although he couldn't remem- ber an instance, faculty can be cited for parking in student spaces. Now, like us, some of you may be wondering why me out some students are extended this convenience which is not available to the general populus. It is under- standable that these students may need special park- ing privileges near the TMB, or where their offices are located, but why are these privileges extended to all campus parking lots? We feel that a special tag should be developed for just the TMB area, or for dorm lots. An SGA should be in touch with all aspects of stu- dent life, including campus parking problems. How can the Executive Board understand a situation it doesn't have to deal with? THE CHANTICLEER OCTOBER 10.1996 PAGE 7

How do you feel about the new Dear Editor, I I am writing this in response to your article on homecoming concerts at JSU. It is very true that the SGA has student directories? not provided the students of JSU with a major concert since February of 1995. At which time we were fortu- nate enough to sign a little known band with a funny name. That band was Hootie and the Blowfish. I person- ally was not an overly active member of the SGA that year, but as an informed student I was aware that we --compiled by Janna Waller signed them to a contract around December of 1994. It is not unusual for the SGA to bring fresh entertainment to out campus at prices that fit our budget. The key words are "fit our budget." Tn late 1994 "Hootie" fit very nicely into our budget and we hit the jackpot! The SGA Student Activities Council was in the right place at the right time. We got lucky and we have been paying for it ever since. It is just reality that our budget does not conform to the majority of the acts requested by students. We have tried to gain corporate sponsorship and other forms of help, but ass of yet it has not paid off. But we are continuing to try and hopefully we will hit "I think it 's a good thing for the the jackpot again in the near future. The SGA of Jacksonville State University is providing quality entertainment to the student body and it is on students because it's the first a regular basis. Whether or not students take advantage or not is up to each individual. We will continue to thing free at the university" work for the student body and we encourage all students to voice their opinions not only on entertainment, but on ways to improve our campus. Upperclassmen may notice a change in the overall atmosphere of our univer- sity. There is a new electricity in the air and it is evident campus wide. It is a great time to be a JSU student John Clark and I personally feel we are all fortunate to be continuing our education at an institution that is growing and changing in positive ways everyday. Continue to speak out and continue to participate on our campus. Senior Sincerely, Bob Boyle, President, Student Government Association

To whom it may concern, "1feel that the student directories is a great idea. I can throw my little In reference to last week's Chanticleer, I know that JSU is not perfect. However, if Mr. Victor Thomas Cypert doesn't like JSU then he should leave. It sounds to me like he should go to Harvard or Yale. As far as putting black book away.

I'll tell you that it is not the physics or computer club. extra curricular activities." I'd also like to say that if Sgt. Tubbs says "We don't have a parking problem at Jacksonville St.," it is obvious to me that Sgt. Tubbs parks in UPD parking. I say this because if he had to park in the "Red Zone" he would know that there is most definitely a parking problem. It's easy to sit in a desk and make statements. However, Roby Brooks when you have 15 minutes between classes there is a major parking problem. Senior In closing, I've seen UPD give tickets when students roll through the stop sign on Trustee Circle beside Bibb Graves. Maybe they could be more understanding, or maybe JSU could avoid blocking the view with University vehicles parked in illegal zones. Sincerely, Josh Lowe

Dear Chanticleer Editors, "It is a great idea, I'especially like the fact that off campus resi- The editorial in the September 26, 1996, issue of the Chanticleer concerning customer service in the Campus Bookstore contained several pieces of incorrect information which need to be addressed.

There are meetings already planned between the Bookstore and the Art Department faculty to iron out these problems and make the system work better. Junior The markup on supplies in the Bookstore is standard for the retail industry. Margins for these type items average from 33% to 45%. The margin in our Campus Bookstore is somewhere around 40%, which is obvious- ly nowhere near the 450% markup referred to in your editorial. The issue over the cats used by the Biology Department was also resolved prior to publication of the editori- al.

Next week, the Chanticleer will be introducing a new feature to the comics page: the Schwald.

This is a graphic novel depicting a warped world some 200 hundred years in the future. The world is more than half covered by a thick, mutagenic forest referred to, by one isolated group of humanity as the Schwald. This jungle forest changes and remodifies anything that is nearby its environment.

Sometimes, this results in superhuman people, sometimes psychotic monsters. Humanity is protected by a race of meta-humans known collectivly as the Mahn, though this alliance is not without its drawbacks.

I hope you'll enjoy reading this as much as we've have creating it.
