Clinton was also judged better looking in his jogging shorts—If we wanted to elect the candidate with the best looking legs Hillary Clinton should enter the race. Stu¬ dents also said they would rather have Bush baby-sit their kids. Well, the poll was called a "Get Serious Poll." That's not a bad idea.

I believe in student empow¬ erment, student diversity, and student's rights. Don't we all? I wouldn't take the time to sit on committees and boards if I didn't feel that way. I could be off work¬ ing more' hours to support myself while in school. And speaking of work ... Mr. Trumpower implied that I should find an off campus job. Good grief man, I commute every weekend to Monterey to work! Isn't tjiat off campus enough? Finally, I would like to, once again, extend my previous invita¬ tion to Mr. Trumpower, Kaleido¬ scope, and all other students, to come by and see me some time at the USU. We have plenty of projects for anyone interested in getting in¬ volved in something on campus. I look forward to filling all our (USU) committee positions, « Mary Anne Drummond
