Hot Spots, a SAGA selfimprovement
program, will
become part of the university
dining service during the next
fP few weeks.
The program attempts to
meet student concerns by helping
students report complaints
about SAGA dining facilities.
When a student notices
something wrong ? no forks
in the dispenser, for example
? SAC3A will take steps to
correct the problem. This will
be accomplished through staff

training is completed, a notice
will be posted saying the problem
has been corrected.
If a student notices the same
problem again and points it
out to management, the student
will receive a free food

Similar programs have been
instituted at other schools nationwide.
SAGA hopes that
through Hot Spots, students
will no longer be able to complain
about university food
without being heard.

By BRIAN POMEROY

Pop music is reflecting a trend
back to '60s styles and spirit, and
one of the best examples is the
new release by a San Francisco
band called The Three O'Clock
? Arrive Without Travelling.
The Three O'clock is to
psychedelia what the Stray Cats
are to '50s rock. They've taken
the sounds of that era and modernized
them for audiences whc
were infants in the Summer ol
'EM.
