Student Apathy Ram Ne. “es

by Dayle Bowyer UNBC

March Sixth turned out
to be a day of disappointment
for the Northern Under-
graduate Student's Society.
A bi-election for the position
of recorder was held before
the Reading break. However,
so few students turned out to
vote that the election resulted
inatie. The Majority of Stu-
dents on campus are either
not aware or just don't care
about what is going on cam-
pus. This was only rein-
forced on March 6th when
only about six or seven stu-
dents turned out for to listen
to the current candidates for
the position of recorder talk.
When asked about the prob-
lems with student apathy on
campus, candidate Tim
Dressel said, "It is repul-
sive." Dressel went on to put
most of the blame on him-
self and others as student
leaders, crediting them with
the responsibility instigating |
and motivating student in- pero (Above): "Ambivalence" by Phil Morrison on display in the

Z of the directors: managed. to get. something done.

One of the most important things addressed at this meeting was the resignation af a;

Social Promotions Director Erin Kinghorn. Her resignation will be effective April 30th.
The Society is not sure. how ia handle her resignation at this time. Kinghorn, however,
expressed an interest in using the two months she has remaifing to train her replacement.
Any decision has been:tabled for the moment to allow possible candidates for the position
to come forward.

Many other concerns were addressed at the meeting including the possibility of the
Student's Society assuming responsibility for Fall orientation. So far this has been left
largely up to Student services, however the question of funding is now becoming a major
concern. :
