Grimes, a graduate student in student personnel services who worked the RHUU last year, won after her opponent, Ken Paluch, was disqualified for not carrying enough credit hours this semester. DALTON, former chairman of the Visual Arts Committee and Louise Haltiwanger, a former member of the Special Programs Committee, ran unopposed. Cox, former chairperson of the Special Programs Committee, defeated Marsha Mansur in a run-off election. A maiiir nhippfivp fnr npyt semester is to increase RHUU membership through better promotion of Union activities, the officers said. "The programming is good but not everyone knows about it," Grimes said. "If we can get more students involved it will help bring in more revenue so we can do more." Grimes said because USC is so large, RHUU activities often go unnoticed. "If we emphasize our name, plan more activities as a group instead of just committees, and promote our activities better, we can get to more students," Grimes said. l d 1 J ?j ? ] k 7 MDS ^Ky BBIV I r more?
