“Steve Coggins, a project

Porter said.
Both Porter and Coggins
agree that if everything goes as
planned the test car should be

“This election will be very
organized,” Weiss said. “We
will be bringing in county elec­
tion equipment and county
ballot boxes.”
Weiss stressed that they are
looking for an “active” senate
this year.
“We want our senate to be
more visible to the student
body than in the past,” Weiss
concluded.
The first ASG meeting of the
term will be Thursday at noon.
