It only seems appropriate to welcome everyone back and give an optimistic message to start things off. Bil t I am not going to. Instead I will discuss women. Tuesday's Activities Fair had its fair share of female representation. I think that is great! Rose does not have coed classrooms. but at least it has coed organizations. Females not only serve as liaisons between ISL.. the Woods and Rose, but they boost morale and interest in an organization, whereby increasing enrollment. I believe club and organizations should make an effort to recruit women as well as men into their membership. But how? The recruiting process need not be as intense as that for Rose students. You would be surprised by the response women give when invited to become a member of an all male organization. Ask girls to meet you at parties, or any girl you happen to bump into. Give it a try. Besides it is a great first line ... —GJL PS Any girl interested in joining the Thorn please contact . . .

At the same time, the ad- ministration supported efforts to take away faculty tax exemp- tions on job benefits like tuition breaks for their families and campus housing notes Iris Molot- sky of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP). Students, USSA's Ozer adds, have had "very little input" in federal policies since Reagan took office. "Reagan's approach to educa- tion has been more on issues of prayer in school or discipline than on substantive issues like access, quality and funding," Molotsky says. Administrators, too, complain the president has done little good for higher education in the last four years. "We had hopes that the ad- ministration, given its rhetoric, would have been more responsive in making regulations less burdensome," says Larry Zaglaniczny with the American Council on Education. "Instead there's a lot more," he said, because of new re- quirements for students to prove they've registered for the draft, income statements and needs tests that must now be filed with financial aid forms. Other higher ed officials are more neutral in their assessment of Reagan's performance. "We've simply been too over- whelmed with state funding cuts and impositions that we really haven't noticed many of the ef- fects from Reagan," says Art Martinez, president of Orange Coast Community College in California. Federal aid cuts, for instance, "haven't really affected us because up until this year fees Is your calculator in and tuition were free for state the residents," explains. same he The president, however, is not without fans on campus. class you are?
