Photo by Joan Springer An early winter snow fell on the College campus Friday, Nov. 18, as a prelude to a heavier snowfall that caused a class closure the following Tuesday. The virgin snow lent a certain holiday air for the upcoming Thanksgiving vacation. "There is no reason for us to get involved in their political problems," said ASG sena tor Dale Holland. Holland then made a motion to ban any foreign political matter from being posted on our campus. His motion, if passed, would allow any posters having to do with local, state or national government to be posted. "We're not talking about handing out pamphlets," said Goede, "that's on a one-to one basis. But with posters you could just have some Nazi go out and print up a bunch of posters...." The motion did not go to the vote, how ever, as Roberts, director of student activi ties requested that it be sent to committee for further study before a decision was made. "When you make a decision like this it has to be one I can live with," he said. A final recommendation will be made by that committee at today's ASG meeting. In other business ASG: —Heard a report on a crisis center being developed to help students with drug, finan cial and emotional problems. Vince Fitz gerald and Art Hames, counselors at the College, will advise Carol Goede, ASG sena tor, and Valerie Whittemire, student, on setting up and running the proposed center. —Heard a report on the "last chance dance" featuring the rock band Silverfall, to be held Dec. 15. —Asked for more female participation in the student awareness discussions taking place in the cafeteria.
