How can we ? demonstrate that when our hands i are held? The policy goes against g everything college is designed to t do," Breslin said. t "In orientation, they told us how we weren't in high school anymore, " how professors instruct and not ( teach, and all this stuff about t responsibility. Well, the attendance i policy contradicts everything.

REACT continued from page 1 Some of the support expressed for candidates had to do with dislike for the others. "I just don't like Bob Dole," sophomore Calica Parson said.

Senior Cheryl Baumgartner said, "I'm interested to see what Bob Dole has to say. I know I don't want Bill Clinton in office." Freshman Megan Kellisch supports Bob Dole, but she said, "I hope he doesn't fall off the stage again." A few students expressed support for Clinton due to a dislike for the Republican candidate. "I hope Bill Clinton wins because Bob Dole's old. I don't trust old people, " freshman James Vachowski said. "Dole is an old fart. Perot is clueless. Clinton is the only one that makes sense. He's the only one that would do a good job. He's done better already than Bush did," Michelle Harrington said. Other students expressed dislike for the debate process. 1 think (the debates) are bogus. All they do is rip each other up in the debates and in television ads," sophomore Wendy Klansek said. "I don't think they make that much of a difference," freshman Lee Andrews said. "I already know who I'm voting for." Apathy was expressed by junior Raymond Gibbs. "To tell you the truth, (the debates) really don't interest me," he said. As for predictions on the debate, senior Courtney Owings said, "I expect Clinton to do very well like he did in iyyz." Junior Carlos Robinson said he was going to use divine help come election day. "As of now, I don't know who I am going to vote for," he said. "But I'm praying for Gods guidance, and Fll vote for the one he says to vote for. Most politicians lie to get elected, and once elected, they break most of the promises they made prior to their being elected." Freshman Jeremy Nausbaum summed up his attitude as a Carolina republican. "Bob Dole is cool, but I wish Strom Thurmond was President," he said. 2'% IK** t Media of South Carolina wvwvPwmwwwMa I M U J -v 1V dlTi IHII liW H 'III 11 >141 ween i paint uniforms j )dy parts ] MORE FY STORE BET *252-1350 I 7XTTTTTTTTTTT?! f I and Mixer 11:00 p.m. :in Dances ie and salsa! ssion: itin America" 51 7:30 p.m. ,atin American Studies iting.
