In my
opinion
Outrage
Walked over to the Bookstore yesterday, hungering for some sun¬
flower seeds. Nol swing same displayed on the snack rack, casually
asked If they carried the product.
Reglslered astonishment when counter girl righteously Informed
this person: 'SUNFLOWER SEEDS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THIS
CAMPUS."
Began thinking of the ImpUcatlons of such a mandate. Suppression
of freedom of expression? If sunflower seed eating Is how you 'do
your  thing".    Limitation of freedom of choice?   Most definitely.
Began to wonder why they do not sell sunflower seeds. Sell pea¬
nuts and cashews and corn nuts. What Is the difference between nuts
and sunflower seeds. Well, the main difference is botanical, one is
ut   that
can't be the reaso
n they are not sold In the Bookstore.
^rejudlc
e     surely  exists
»  this campus, but not at that level
hopes.
Recall  that  sunflower seeds, along with bubble gum, were pro¬
hibited  ln grammar school also.    Hard to remember why exactly,
but  think it had something to do with the sanitation habits of Utile
kids.   Sloppy little brutes. Had no respect for the janitors. Some-   -imp-
thing like that. '

If Monday's supplement Is an
example of what we can expect
once a week from the Collegian
next year, then lt has a long a,
way to go to promote better

ln the paper was not written by
a Chicano or black, but by a
Spanish head of the history de¬
partment.
Furthermore, the Student
Senate Is supposed to be a de¬
bating and legislative body for
the entire school. Through
devious means the floor got yield
ed so many times to the gallery m
that some student Senators were       "*l

Senate is supposed to be a re¬
sponsible body of debate and leg¬
islation, but lt looked Uke the
students and not the Senate was
controlling much of the discussion

elected representatives were not
allowed to speak for their classes
or schools.
The JournaUsm and business
departments were against the

When the Senate allows elected
representatives to be silenced by
a continuous yielding of the floor
to non-elected representatives,
they are subverting the very prin¬
ciples that they are supposed to
uphold. _
