ÆQQQk VOTE Hir To the Editor: Hi, my name is Dana Dumolt and I’m running for the office of student body president. I feel that the students should know everyone who is running for the top ASG office. I want people to get to know me, so I am taking this opportunity to tell people about me and some of my views. I joined ASG during the winter term of this year as an assistant to the president senator. I was part of the ASG'effort that sponsored the drive to lobby thé fédéral legislators against cutting finan cial aid programs. Also during this time I have been the chair man of the Constitution and Bylaw Revisions Committee. I have done a lot of work on this committee and really enjoy what I’m doing. I completed 8 credits with a 3.00 GPA last term and am tak ing 11 credits this term. I take my studying seriously and although being president would take a lot of my time, I know it won’t in terfere with my studies. I have talked to the current president and past president and officers about their experiences and I know that I can do a good job. I would like to get to know as many students and teachers as I can before elections, so if you see me, stop me, talk to me, and tell me what you would like to see different at this school. I want to be open and honest with you, so don’t hesitate to be friendly. En joy your classes and I hope I see you soon. Sincerely, Dana Dumolt In recent months a bill has been proposed that would make wearing seat belts mandatory for all Oregonians, not just those under 16. Although some Oregonians may feel that this bill infringes on their personal freedom, they are not looking at the whole picture. This bill has been designed not only to protect Oregonians over 16 from being injured, but it will also protect those under 16 from being crushed and smothered by unrestrained parents flying around in a car when it crashes. The first seat belt law was passed to protect children from injury, but in order for there to be a more complete protection this seat belt law must also be passed. It seems rather foolish for people to be opposed to a law that is designed to save their lives, but perhaps it’s easier to take a risk on get ting seriously injured or killed than to break a habit and “buckle-up” the next time, and every time, an Oregonian sits in a car seat.
