"One of the underlying lessons s
we are to obtain from college is i
responsibility. 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. If
students aren t mature enough to s
realize that they are not getting 1
their money's worth by not
attending classes, maybe they F

Some of the support expressed for
candidates had to do with dislike for the
others.

can't think for himself" freshman Adam
Rutkowski 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.
