| Summary: | September 11, 1981 the concordian page 3 Up Front by John Northrup Ronald Reagan is the President of the United States. Wow! What a job! What responsibilities!! He is the leader of a nation that is an example for the entire world. He can drastically change many peo-ple's lives. He possesses the power to detonate enough nuclear weaponry to destroy the world several times. I can not comprehend how any one person is expected to hold the responsibilty for such a position. More than that, I find it difficult to believe that Mr. Reagan knows how to handle the responsibility and tasks of the presidency,' when no one else does. Perhaps this is because the Reagan Administration has created a new highly capitalistic, highly conservative way of think-ing. The "rebirth of America," as it has been called, is great! A health}, thriving economy and an America that is a strong world influence arc fine goals, from a domestic point of view anyway. The elimination of wasteful programs and bureaucratic regulations should also be upplaiiuod- by most everyone. Reagan ^tys that he will main-taining pea^ e, and seems to me his method is by initiapig a new arms race. If peace actually can be achieved by the production of technical weaponry, then this ac-tion can be commended. Mr. Reagan has a vison ^nd he's work-ing very hat d at making this vison come true. What of this vison? They say it is a "return to basics" or the re-establisrjment of free enterprise. Big government is being cut back in order to allow the economy to flourish. The Reagan vision seems to be pointed at pre-depression, pre- New Deal America when free-enterprise was rampant and the economy was "booming." All of Reagan's goals point toward this situation. However, during this time there were also no billion dollar corporations threatening monopoly; no 20 percent interest rates; no OPEC oil crisis; and no nuclear arms. Seventy years has drastically changed our society, to say the least. This makes me think that the Reagan vision of "a shining ci-ty on a hill" is aimed at a more simple time. The simplicity of the Reagan vi-sion frightens me. It may be both profitable overseas and politically to be simple — it's consistant and easy to understand. This is why Mr. Reagan has such a great popularity. INSTRUCTORS continued from page 2 Berkeley and her master's and doctor of musical arts degrees from Stanford University in California.

All senators were present. 2. The treasurer's report revealed that there was $88,990.23 in the student activity fund. 3. Mark Peterson, engineer at KORD radio, made a three-part request to the senate. First, a request of a $330 loan lo purchase a new stereo mixing board, was made. Peter-son said that 5300 was for the board and S30 was for gas to get to Minneapolis to pick it up. He said the loan would be paid back through record hops the station plans to present at area dances. He also felt he could sell the old mixing board. Second, Peterson asked for an allocation of $300 for miscellaneous expenses. He said the money would be used to put the new board in if they bought it and for any emergency purchases necessary to keep the station operating. Third, Peterson asked for a rcallocation of funds from last year's budget. He said he had $90 left over from the purchase of a rack that was budgeted at $190. He asked that the money be lised to cover an under-budgeting of $19.80 for a patch base, $5 more for mike stands, $6.55 for a tube, $24.82 for a monitor speaker, and $8.19 for a wire connecting tool. This would leave Kord $25.64 under budget for the rack and Peterson asked that this be taken off their $300 request for niscellancous expenses. Eric Johnson motioned that they accept the loan request. It was seconded by Rick Clayburgh and passed unanimously. Maria Green motioned that $74.36 be given for the miscellaneous expense, which would be set at $100 if the $25.64 left over from the rack were given. Dave Meldahl seconded and the motioned passed unanimously.
