He's interested in meeting his representatives, though. "I don't want to be put in the position to decide who Fm going to vote for and not even know who they are ," Denig said. Student Government Senator Michele Marinkovic said "Meet Your Student Government Day" and the bulletin boards are convenient ways for Student Government to meet with the students. There's 26,000 students. We want to make ourselves available to those who are interested," Marinkovic said. She suggested students stop by the Student Government office if they have any concerns. Student Government Vice President Kim Dickerson said better commiinirntifYn with flip stuHpnt.s is nnp of her goals. "The bulletin boards based in the colleges are one step toward this, and senators should be going to organizations in their colleges," she said. Some students thought the bills passed by senate do not affect the students and the senate should do more for the students. "Student Government isn't doing anything thaf s on our level," Gardner said. They're doing all this bureaucratic stuff." Asbestos po ASBESTOS continued from page 1 said.

Some of the projects Student Government has been working on are Safety Walk, GRAAD, a safe-ride program and academic forgiveness, according to Dickerson. Students are also concerned with the computer services provided to them hv t.hp linivprsit.v Mullins believes Student Government should make sure students are receiving good service. "It's ridiculous that I had to bring my entire computer to another building for computer services to work on it, and I'm still having problems," Mullins said. ses hazard . which dictates how Housing handles asbestos.

"With registration going online, that's going to demand for students to learn how to use the Internet and computer labs to be ODen more, so Com puter Services is going to have to offer more help," Newman said. Another concern students had was the technology fee. Denig thinks the fee should pay for something to benefit all students since all students pay the fee. "We all paid the fee, but the money went to a couple of security systems in a few dorms," he said. Student Government President Jamel Franklin believes registration online, and eventually paying fees online, will make better use of the technology fees. "We need to make sure students see the benefits of these fees," Franklin said. Students agreed with the petitions Student Government was circulating to cancel classes on Martin Luther King Jr. Day and to extend the library hours. Albrecht hopes we get Martin Luther King Jr. day off in respect of the civil rights leader. "It's disrespectful to the AfricanAmerican community and one of our nation's great leaders," Albrecht said. She also hopes Student Government is successful in getting library hours extended. to students project, like those we've completed at Maxcy and Sims." Housing should tackle asbestos in Capstone and South Tower in 1998, when they plan to renovate those buildings. $10 OFF ANY 3 1 B 1 7 Suns Tin ^ /Dy-t Min.
