However, there is lis continual feeling on my part lat something is missing. To the extent of my un erstanding the SGA is designed to b a representative government jsponsive to all or the majority of' leir constituents' needs. Yet, awhere in "The Green Street eview" is there any mention of an ibiased, scientifically validated pinion poll of the USC community students, who SGA is supposedly ^presenting; the USC faculty, the eighboring business persons and le neighborhood residents ompose the community). This tudy should have been instituted rior to the October 15th resolution ) support the close Green Street lovement. No doubt there are probably lose members of the SGA who will ite the Green Street demontration, and attendance at a SGA earing of the issue as evidence of tudent body support of the close ireen Street movement. My ritique would be that those amnio cnannc i upuVVJ ?l C 1IUI OtlCII" fically valid inferences of the 5tal popuulation. The already xisting 4,500 signatures on the lose Green Street petitions are qually invalid as they represent a iased and selective sample, as lost peetitions do. In conclusion, the SGA may be ffective in getting Green Street losed. However, two key luestions will have been left inanswered.

These are questions that cannot >e answered by a traffic flow A 1- " luuy, or a oanquet for the Five 'oints Merchants. I hereby hallenge the SGA to institute the ibove mentioned poll before taking my further action. Surely there ire enough USC faculty members vith expertise in social research /ho might be engaged as unliased consultants to such a poll, or t could be administered by an lutside agent. It is my firm hope hat the SGA mv _ v J VltUlll/II^C f not the trulh will definitely come iut at the next election polls. Brian M. Kochera Picket distribution TO THE EDITOR: The function of all universities is education. "Completed" education is the only true evaluation of a student's standing. Therefore, this attempted hours nonsense is a free ride for freeloaders. Is the student who attemnt* nnH completes 30 hours or more to be relegated the status equal to one who only completed half of his attempted 30 hours? If so, what is the criteria? This ruling not only hurt the transfer student, but also the continuing students at USC. Gerri Daniels
