SGA has received more publately than Lucky Strike's
going to war. Yet the great
of our .students are no more
interested in it than they are in the
price of eggs in China. Many of us
wondered if Norma Weatherspoon's
presence at the Sigma
Xi
party would cramp Big Jim Collier's
style, but outside of that, the feud
between The Kernel and the student
president wasn't followed by most
of the readers.
WHY? Simply because few know
what the Student Government is
all about nor do they give a "damn.
It is our honest op;n:on imy colleagues and mine i that it would behoove us all to make an honest effort to learn what goes on in SGA
and to examine its purpose.
Since SGA's have been found to
work successfully in many better
Universities throughout the nation,
there is no earthly reason why it
couldn't function properly on this
campus.
How many times nave you signed
a petition fully realizing that nothing would ever become of it? It is
through such organizations as the
SGA that the students may exert
concentrated efforts to accomplish
desired results. Whether you believe in politics or not. we believe
you will admit alliances make it possible for individuals to be heard and

recognized. A man without a party
is worse than a car without gas.
Of course there are two sides to
every story. Not for once do we admit that the SGA is flawless, nor
do we admit that it is the only organization on the campus that the
students should consider.
It shall be the policy of this column to give inside information on
the issues put forth by the more
important associations.
Moreover,
we intend to criticize and evaluate
them without reservation.
Our
opinions, criticisms, evaluations, interpretations, and predictions shall
be our own. We don't intend, to appease "Ihe Kernel or certain people
that it has on its staff.
However, no attempt will be made
to evaluate the administration . . .
you see, we don't want to commit
suicide, for we will all be in the
army next quarter anyhow.
For a starter, let's take a look at
Captain Collier and his company.
It seems that last December Mr.
Peterson gave the SGA permi
