  • 0 .A..., Rampant at RRC by Kelly Stifora
    CDs & DVDs 97 Osborne St 475-0077 DVDs CDs VHS 57 Osborne St 477-5566 Red River College's newspaper October 29 2001 Pool -0 .A..., rampant at RRC By Kelly Stifora ue to persistent student theft, the Red River College Students' DAssociation is considering a rise in the price of a pool game on the RRC campus. RRC Students' Association Executive Director Owen Desnoyers is currently considering options to prevent students from using wooden coffee stir sticks to cheat the coin mechanisms on the pool tables located in the Cave lounge, a practice that has led to a drastic drop in revenue generated by the tables. The SA has already tried placing signs in the Cave warning students of the consequences if they get caught steal- ing on campus, which could include expulsion from the school. The signs have been repeatedly ripped down shortly after their posting. "Due to the fact that we're seeing almost a 50 per cent drop in revenue within our pool table service, we may have to raise the price from $1 to $1.25 to make it more difficult to cheat," says Desnoyers. "Or (we could) incur a much higher cost and re-configure the actual key mechanisms to make it very difficult to cheat. The end result is that it will become very inconvenient to students in general. "In one week we saw a $300 drop in revenue." Of the profits generated by the tables, 60 per cent go back to the SA and, therefore, into student programming and other SA initiatives intended to improve student life.
