is a need for student govern
ment to be more upfront."
McCarty also feels that a need
for an ethics code to be written
into the elections procedures
developed out of this year's
.presidential campaign.
"There need to be guidelines
within the election code as to
what can and cannot be done
before it gets out of hand," he
said.
"The vice president as
elections officer had his hands
tied while rumors and ideas flew
around because he didn't know
what could or could not be
said."
McCarty's plans for next year
include maintaining the high
level of student participation
shown in this election.
"We are proposing a new
media position to increase pub
licity and let the students know
what we are doing. We are also
proposing to put up an organi
zational chart with pictures of
all the senate and cabinet mem
bers in the Community Center
so that students will know who
to contact if they have any
problems."

Dying Bees. . .The Biology class has a unique
glass beehive complete with queen. Or, should we
say« had a bee hive as of Monday afternoon.
Biology instructors began to notice a drastic
change in the hive, bees were dying and clogging
up the hive. By Tuesday afternoon over half the
hive was non-existent and the fate of the queen
and hive was uncertain. Biology Instructor Daryl
Hampton suspected a poisonous biocide had been
sprayed within the area of the hive. Ed Hartman,
grounds supervisor instructed workers last week
to spray the overgrown grass and weeds along the
fence adjacent to the bee hive entrance directly
behind the Orchard complex to control the grass.
The spray, called Muni-kill, contained 94.97 per
cent Aliphatic Hydrocarbons, 1.09 percent 2,4-D
Ester, .98 percent Bromacil, and .80 percent
Pentachloraplunol is suspected of killing the bees.
However, Biology instructors could not identify
any of the contents as harmful to the bees.

"We can offer them human

The role of the enrollment
manager will depend somewhat
on what develops in the next
few years, according to Dr. John
Hakanson, college president.
"What we really need to dp
is build a better communication
channel to inform
different
people in the community what
they can benefit from College
offerings," Hakanson said. "We’
can also learn about what we
would offer that we don't now
have."
"There is a lot of people
who think this is a vocational
school," Hakanson said. "We do
have a vocational school, a good
one, but we've got a lot more
than that."
The first task of the enroll
ment management specialist is to
find out what has already been
done, and then coordinate and
build on that foundation, ac
cording to Haroldsen. Concentra
ting on the high schools to en
courage more enrollment, and
working to enroll the non-tra-
ditional student who doesn't "fit"
anywhere academically, aré two
very important tasks for the
enrollment manager, he said.
A tentative budget of approx
imately $50,000 is being con
sidered to cover the costs of an
enrollment manager, an assist
ant,, a secretarial position and
funds for travel and other con-
