Such is now the case with student complaining about the administration of Florence O. Wilson Bookstore. A perennial student favorite among the various techniques for procras- tination, complaining about Flo O. is perceived to be as pointless as it is entertaining. Yes. it's fun to gripe about the uncooperative staff and al frrpn-H"hitffii'ylai'rir- attitude towards getting textbooks and all the rest Conventional wisdom, however, has always said that there is nothing to be done. Until now. We here at the Voice feel that the situation with the bookstore's monopoly on books and supplies has reached an intolerable level. If we seek a resolution to these complaints, then our responsibility to the student body in particular and to the campus community in general is clean we should explore the operations of the Bookstore, expose deficiencies, and propose solutions, rather than passively complaining. No parking problem on campus For those in the proper mood, there are plenty of things to complain about on this campus. Parking, however, is not one of them. It is true, you can't always parkin front ofyour dorm. You may, in a crunch, have to walk from as far away as Lowry or even Freedlander, but there is always a spot somewhere. Letters We are fortunate on this campus to have no restrictions placed on who can own a car and to have parking spaces mere minutes away from our Non-members encouraged to participate in SGA rooms.
