It has been almost one year since Universi

In his campaign for ASl JO president a push for
a dentist at the Student ‘Health Center, , •
And although he did not win the race,.
Saunders says he still has kept his- word
Earlier this month., the Student Health Center
Committee'agreed unanimously to develop a
program to include’a dental hygienist at the
health- center" Saunders says the. program

is supported by student funds.
"It seemed rather odd that students were
paying $2.5 million a year for something they
had no control over, only advisory.” Saunders
says... . .
Saunders is quick to add that the commit
tee does not suspect wrongdoings at the
center." but emphasizes that students shoufd.
have control. "It's just like an investment V- 1f

Kyery year a needs assessment survey is
takeh by an outside agency, ranking the needs
of the students. Saunders says. According to
recent surveys, the need for a dental hygienist
ranked near the top. •
The dental program is an additional at

adds another dimension to the University,. •
