The Recycling Office also has stopped collecting books, magazines and journals from university departments. Pergolizzi said schools with outstanding recycling programs base their programs on student demand. "If s important for [students] to know it's up to them. They can demand a better program," Pergolizzi said. Students Allied for a Greener Earth (SAGE) said it plans to do just that.

Locations of Columbia city recycling dropoff sites will soon be posted on the Recycling Office's web page at http://www.fmc.sc.edu/recycle/env.htm. Also, beginning Feb. 20, the Recycling Office will kick off its annual phone book recycling contest Students cah place their old phone books in bins located in each residence hall. At the end of the contest. the two halls with the hifrh*?st amount of phone book recycling will win a pizza party. For now, students can recycle aluminum cans and mixed paper from most university departments and residence halls. Housing sign-up to be mailed Feb. 20 asst. news editor CARRIE MCCULLOUQH The new Department of Housing signup forms will be mailed out the week of Feb. 20. Already students have questions and complaints about how the apartments and residence suites will be assigned. Under the new system, students will receive an information packet in their campus mailbox with a request sheet to fill out. On this information*sheet each stu dent will put what residence hall or apartment he or she wishes to live in next year. The student will only be able to choose one preferred roommate, even if an apartment is being requested. Gretchen Koehler-Shepley, associate director of housing, confirmed that students will only be allowed to indicate one preferred roommate. She said that is the way it was when students came down to the Department of Housing for room assignments. Students will have a chance to make room and roommate changes on April 23 and 24, Koehler-Shepley continued. "We haven't got all of the details worked Allt uof Tf w^nla Qr.or+mnwfo oro otroiloVtla vmv jw. u tuiviv u^/ui vmviibo oiw av auauic (during room change dates) you can switch there. I really don't expect to have many openings," Koehler-Shepley said. Milli Wehr, a junior nursing major, is upset about this change. She lives in an apartment on the Horseshoe this semester with three other students that were able to select each other as roommates with the old system. Last year all three of the students had similar sign-up times and were able to stand in line together and make their preference known. "Since I don't have a car I don't have a choice," Wehr said about the possibility of living off-campus next year. Wehr was upset that the housing staff will not talk to her about this. She said she went down to the Department of Housing recently to ask what students could do if they wanted to choose three room mates for an apartment, but she never made it past the receptionist.
