He was less chay, which was a lile disappoining, bu all his peulan arrogance was delighfully on display, especially as he sood alone on sage, hammering he back of a seel chair wih his microphone- lovely noise, even in a semi-full sadium.

This band has los nohing in he way of inegriy as far as heir sound goes, whaever heir own doubs may be abou hemselves as a markeable phenomenon. They offered up a balanced, ineresing show.

A closing medley included a couple of old Syd Barre and Velve Underground songs. The doubs, however, were apparen.

Sheer numbers never equae wih inelligence or common sense -jus ask any lem- ming. Also, for a member of he Ars faculy, Armsrong makes an amazing number of ypographical and grammaical misakes in his leer. While sheer composiional sloppiness alone is no sufficien evidence o convic Armsrong of obuse reasoning, i is cerainly a sign ha he wroe in hase, wihou pausing oreflec on he coherency of his argumen.

Suzanne Vardy PHED 1 was o be added o he expense of my educaion. may sound pey, bu an addiional hiry dollars expense added o he budges some of us are living on can cause concern. When here are oher hings which are much more significan, and capable of making an imporan conribuion on behalf of he sudens o his insiuion, i seems o me o be erribly selfindulgen, if no irresponsible, o be pursuing a luxury like he Rec Fac. A he ime, calculaed ha a en percen increase in uiion fees would jus abou pay he universiy's conribuion o he faciliy. did no surprise me ha he Board of Governors imposed he increase afer seeing a reckless and expensive pursui of an exravagan faciliy by a very visible porion of he suden body. The suden body migh, for example, consider conribuing somehing more han he few new day-care places he Rec Fac planned. And wha of he necessiy for more unis of affordable suden housing? Consider he lack of funds o buy new volumes for he libraries, or he lack of faciliies o house he books. Or, going back o accessibliy issues, canno begin o imagine my frus- raion if were required o negoiae his campus in a wheel chair.

Frankly, if were asked o voe on wheher or no would be willing o coninue o pay he hiry dollars increase nex year so ha we could coninue working on he ypes of problems have menioned, would find room in my budge, and would voe yes.
