“We've come up with this posible solution, We're not saying i's going to

identification tag policy that went into effect Monday.

The policy states that a "valid SUNY I,D. card or valid guest pass must
be tured in tothe ise room in order to receive an ILD. tag. Any person not
‘wearing [4 tag] will be asked to obtain one or leave the building”

This new procedure upplis to three athletic faites: the main gyms, the
swimming pool and the weight room.

‘As co-organizer with Dr Edith Cobane, Gillis should be complimented for
attacking the dilemma of overcrowded athletic faites

However, Gils’ solution ofthe problem, us she readily admits, might not
work,

There are two reasons forthe overcrowding, One is thelack of foor space;
‘the second is thit people outside of the University are using the facilities,

‘Obviously, Gils could not have tried to solve thefirt problem —that was
‘up to thestudents ofthis school last year when they voted down areferendum
for the construction of a fildhouse.

‘But Gillis has tried to solve the second problem of how fo stop area high
school and college students from making the Physical Education Building

Their only entrance to the building should be as spectators, and not as

Recently, I have read in every

lousy decade for music. While it
ain't the 60's, the 70's have been

roar

To the Eaitor:
It’s shame that an intelligent letter
(‘racism ag usual” ASP March 31) can
be ruined by opening paragraphs
which undermine the credibility of the
authors.
‘The unbelievable view that the
placement of a crime story on page
fone is an example of institutional
racism wouldcertainly lead the reader
to question the author's seruples,

Understandably, major stories (i.e.
crime) concerning the student body
would sppoar on page one. The fact
that the crime was allegedly
‘committed by a black person, { am
sure had nothing to do with its
position in the paper. A little thought
‘would answer the author's accusation
concerning the racial features of the
police drawing — the police would like
to catch the suspect.

Hopefully everyone will bring
thomselves back to reality, and not
scream “racism as usual” over
chance they get, =

fact of the matter Is (and this was
completely overlooked in their

To the Balter:

adjectives are used even when i's not

Student Association and Central
Couneil consider the problem to be
indifferenee born of ignorance.
Unattended meetings and unmarked
ballots are symptomatic of large
seale communication lapse within the
University community. In an effort to
melivrate this problom, SA. has
formed a group of students to
publicize its programs and policies.
Central Council has made its
contribution in the form of « Human

editorial

Promises, Promises

It has received more wide-spread opposition from
students than any other issue in the: SUNY system this year.
It has prompted sit-ins, boycotts, demonstration:
speeches of outrage for its removal. It is the bogus “student
health fee” and amazingly, at this point in time itremains
in the proposed budget for next year.

Simply put, the student health fee is a lie. It does not goto
improved student health services. It is a front for an
increase in tuition. A lie.

Members of the New York State Legislature sured
student leaders that the health fee would be stricken from
the budget proposal. However, when they passed the State
budget on Friday, the health fee remained. Instead of the
necessary action that was promised, students were given,
as SASU Legislative Director David Coyne put it, astab in
the back.

The justification on the part of the Legislature for the
retention of the fee is ludicrous. Students were told that the
health fee was retained because there wasn’t enough
money in the budget for both the repeal of the fee and the
favorable Tuition Assistance Program package that was
adopted. By linking the two, the Legislature is playing
politics with students.

The health fee and the increase of TAP aid are two
separate issues. One involves the repeal of something that
is openly shafting students and should have never heen
included in the budget, while the other involves additional
aid to students in response to aclimbing inflation rate. The
health fee should be repealed. Students should get increased
TAP aid, And one should not come at the expense of the
other.

While almost everybody agrees that the health fee is a
sham and should be knocked out of the budget, it hasn't
happened yet. The earlier promises made by politicians
have not provided any results. Now they are promising that
the fee will be repealed in the supplemental budget, or
maybe even before that. ‘The fact remains that the fee should
have never survived this far. The Legislature should putits
money where its mouth is and stop this rip-off of student
money. And they should do this before SUNY students are
forced to organize the second annual boycott of the student
health fee.

claiming that he shouldn't be required

the next issue of the ASP a
appeared from a trio of students
indloating that this was perhaps not
the case; maintaining, in fact, that his,
use of the language was far from
proficient, and that therefore he
should be required to take an English

bout Withheld's taste in the arts,

‘as to who has the right to force hia

unenlightened student.

‘When we were young, around 10 or
thereabouts, it was generally accepted
that we were still typical mammalian

face the world at large. In another
twenty years, when weare inourearly

the aforementioned transition is

‘aspects, we have the sample concept
of freedom, the basic precept upon
which our society is theoretically
founded. The right to be wrong, It's ag
simple as that. No one hi
given right to tell someone
university what to do.
One might counter that by saying
that the student made his choice by
entering the university, and the school
then has a right to require what it
wants for a liberal arts education.
Well, let us keep in mind that the
school is « really here for the student
