The issue of the poll was as follows: Should the snack bar areas in Van Lare Hall (VLH) and Besser Technical Center (BTC) be the · designated smoking areas? The Senate was asked· to view the results of the poll and give their recommendation on it. The recommendation of the Senate, by a 4-3 vote, after a lengthy debate was recom- mending that smoking be pro- hibitted in the snack bar areas of VLH and BTC. William Gorski, vice presi- dent of the Senate, was responsible for submitting the Senate's recommendation t9 Dean McCormack.· After Gorski sent his letter, Don Elliot, Student Activity chair- person, and Rich LaMay, Stu- dent Senate president, sent an opinion letter to Dean McCormack. In Elliot's and LaMay's let- ter , they incorrectly stated the recommendation. Their "new" recommendation, which was not voted on by Student Come join THE ROUND TABLE at Senate, was as follows: "There should be no smoking allowed on campus AT ALL. " Dean McCormack received both letters. In his return let- ter he stated that the smoking issue will be discussed by the Faculty/ Administration Committee. The journalism staff took it upon themselves to conduct their own poll. The question , "What do you think of the new smoking policy?" was asked to 23 students, faculty 1 and administrative members. Of the 23 pollers 35% agreed with the .current policy, 43% disagreed, and 22% were in- different. , WAFB campus seeks to expand A recent discussion with Community Services Director· Chuck Weisen reveals there may be a new education cen- ter at Wurtsmith Air Force Base by late 1992. A steadily growing enroll- ment since the 1969 establish- ment -of the W AFB campus could create not only a new building, but generate expand- ed course offerings. Weisen explains that the current facility is functional in laying the groundwork for an Some of the following comments were offered: Gary Buckerfile stated , " Don't bother me one way or another. I can smoke or not smoke. It takes away rights from others. I think smo¼:ers have rights too, I feel , same as the nonsmokers. It's like violating each one. Each one is getting violated so where is the even line." John McCormack stated , "Majority rules; what ever the student body wants." Julie Nelson stated, "We should be allowed to smo.ke and have more places to smoke instead of just smoking in the lounges and if it bothers the non- smokers, then they shoud be able to go to places where there's no smoke around." The smoking issue is a decision that will "have to be reached by compromises from both smoking and non- smoking students. education that wm lead to the students' enrollment at Alpena Community College. Wiesen stresses, "We do not exist to compete · with our own main campus." All courses are transferable and are designed to complement ACC's programs, and those of other schools.
