"I would really like to see if RHA could work with Student Government at large. I would like to see cooperation between us. "We have the task of deciding what we feel is best for 7,000 students ? those who live on campus ? and Student Government shares that responsibility with us. I would like to see us work on some achieveable tasks. Together we can get things done," McMullen said.

In the past, each dorm decided the day their elections would be held, but this year McMullen said RHA felt that bv hav ing them all on one day, more publicity would be generated and more students would vote. RHA is funded by a 1 percent tax on dorm government fees, according to McMullen. Though representatives are not paid, RHA is considering it for future years, he said. He said he hopes by paying representatives, more qualified students may seek offices. McMullen said their funds are used to promote RHA's goals and activities. One of RHA's major problems is lack of publicity," McMullen said. "Organizing has taken a long time, but once we get things settled, you're going to see a lot of action next year from us.
