Apathy Not Confined To FSC
By TOM BRONZINI
Fresno State College ls not the only college ln California faced
with the problem of student apathy.
The students at Pepperdlno College ln Los Angeles make our own
students seem Inspired with enthusiasm. Seven of 14 elective of¬
fices at Pepperdlne went uncontested during the college's fall
election, according to the student newspaper. Included among the
uncontested posts was the top Job of student body president.
A total of 391 Pepperdlne students voted ln the ASB election,
approximately 37 per cent of the total enrollment.
A curious note is that the vlce-presldentlal spot was hotly con¬
tested in the election. This seems to Indicate that even the student
leaders at Pepperdlne are apathetic, preferring to take on a Job that
offers prestige but requires much less work and responsibUlty.
On another note, only seven women signed up for sorority rush
this fall at Pepperdlne, while the fraternities could stir only four
curious rushees. This out of a total of some 1,000 students. This
ln itself ls an Indictment of student apathy at Pepperdlne; for the

INDICATIONS HOPEFUL
But there are Indications that FSC students may be somewhat
less apathetic this semester. Associate Dean of Students Gordon
WUson reported that signups for freshman class offices are very
encouraglng--one of the best turnouts ln years. Student leaders
will soon submit a new student union proposal to the students, a
move that should stir more controversy and perhaps spur more
voters to the polls. A hotly debated proposal to reorganize the stu¬
dent council looms ln the future.
These are legitimate political Issues on campus that merit the
debate and comment of the student body. In the past students may
have felt that student government ls too "mickey mouse" and petty
to bother with, and this may be one reason for the past shortcom-
■ lngs of participation. But the proposals up for consideration this
