Disabled In Action
BY- MIKE WARD
·When a d!sabled person trys to seek employment, he is usually
turned away because of the employer's imaginary fears. They range
from economic loss to an increase in working compensation. · Since all
the arguments against hiring the disabled are untrue, the only factor
which prohibits more disabled from being a part of the labor force is
prejudice. ·

Since the elections of every council dating back to the prehistoric
age of Joe Brosnan is under suspicion due to unconstitutional
procedures, the present council found that it would have to establish a
new election committee following the guidelines set up in Section 1 of
Article 1 of the Constitution. By following the constitution to the letter
in the formation of this committee, the council feels that it will have
achieved the first step toward returning to constitutional government.
The new election committee will be given the step-by-step
procedures for holding an election.

is hoped then that the legitimacy
of the new council will be beyond reproach.

Communication
Dear Editor

In reference to a letter written
by Leslie Begor (March 18, 1971)
I, as a commuting student, must
agree that there is a definite lack
of communication between the
college community arid the

commuting student.
I would,
however, like to ask Leslie what
she is doing to help bridge the gap
between the commuter and
Marist College. Every commuter
can sit around and complain but
