STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCT. 3, 1947
Firenty Dollars?
The wind seems to be full of insurance plans this
week. The topic is considered important enough
to rate an assembly period so it certainly must be
important enough to warrant our intelligent inter-
est.
The insurance plan to be offered to the student
body today, claims $20 for $500 worth of ser
. The most general comment seems to be, “f can't
afford $20,” and even though our more insurance-
minded friends can reply that if we can’t afford a
$20 policy we couldn’t very well afford a $500 sick-
ness, the fact still remains that we have no stray
$20 bill lying around loose in our pockets. To most
State students $20 is a sizeable sum of money.
Another serious objection to the policy seems
to be the fact that eye examinations and dental
bills are not included in the $500 benefit. Granted
that the insurance company must make some pro-
fit, and the inclusion of these items would raise
the amount spent out to quite a sum, but we must
also consider that these are the items on which
most of us spend money. Even the small amount
which the present infirmary fund advances towards
the price of new glasses is some help.
The new ruling cancelling any compulsory per-
centage participation seems to leave the whole
matter up to the individual, However, those stu-
dents who have no intention of taking out the poli
themselves but are merely voting for it because
Joe up in the front row is casting his vote that
way, should take into consideration that if a ma-
jority of the students express a desire for this plan,
the present infirmary fund will be cancelled, Those
who do not take out the new policy will then be
left unprotected.
Let's think clearly and intelligently in assembly
today, and make sure clear on the issue be-
fore we find ourselves voting the wrong way,

IN TODAY’S ASSEMBLY ...
A very interesting and vital subject will come up
before this morning’s assmbly student body. It is
something about which the majority of the people
here know very little. I don’t know what procedure
is to be followed in this report by the Insurance Com-
mittee, but when dealing with something of this
iature it seems that an open question period would
accomplish a lot, Don Lansky, heading up this com-
mittee informed me Tu ty that any and all ques-
tions would be answered in this assembly program.
We took a little spot survey this week in the
Commons and while the results are not offered as
valid, they do indicate something of the situation in
which students find themselves.
24 people were asked to estimate the approximat
amount of money that they had spent for hospital
tion, doctors’ bills, ete. No dental expenses are in-
cluded in the following statistics, but some people
included cost of glasses and eye examinations which
the proposed inst system would not cover.
‘The average expense per year per individual of those
asked was $49.40. This ranged from seven people
who had spent nothing to one person whose expenses
were $850.00, Since the plan under diseussion today
will cover only to the extent of $500.00, (his would
make the ave » expense per year per individual
$34.80
Cost to the individual for this insurance plan i:
$20.00. Tt has been reported that should the student
body deside to adopt this insurance plan, the old in-
firmary fund would go out the window. That, inci-
dently, allows a maximum of $15.00 per school year
at a cost of $3.00. And from previous experience, this
infirmary fund is too inconsistent for the average
pupil to fee) any protection from it
There are, of course, several important issues to be
decided before approval is given the proposed plan. Is
it to be compulsory? (Three people surveyed had ther
own individual insurance similar to the one under
discussion.» By whom is it to be administered? Will
premiums be paid as a part of the student tax? How
about veterans?
Tt has been customary for the Common-Stater to
endeavor to influence his couple of readers one way
or another in regards to such controversial matter
Now, however, we urge you only to check into thi
insurance program thoroughly, and don’t cast) your
vole until you know all you want to about it Aud
you can find out a lot in assembly this morning

The weather is fine for football
but in New York City this week, the
sports spotlight is turned on base-
ball. At Yankee Stadium and at

the Brooklyn Dodgers. Realizing
the intense rivalry usually engend-
ered by this clash of titans, we un-

was: Who wil: win the series?
