i Volume 3, Issue 16 & 17 CAMPUS UPDATE Alpena Community College, Alpena, MI May 6, 1981 TISCH TELLS STUDENT WHERE TO GO by: Beth Anderson Robert Tisch, at a debate sponsored by Citizens for Better Government, told Alcona High Shcool Senior, Mitch Austin, that if he was that concerned with tax-cut proposals and his available higher education funding, that he (Austin) should consider going to California or Texas for his education. This statement was in response to a question proposed by Austin con- cerning Tisch’s proposed cuts to taxes and. how they will affect education. » Representative Tom Alley and Robert Tisch were present at Alcona High Schoo! in Lincoln on Monday, May 4, in order to enlight- en the voting public about the ram- ifications. of the new tax-cut pro- POOR ATTENDENCE DOESN'T SPOIL WORKSHOP by: Georgia Wheeler “Saturday, April 25th, a special workshop on leadership was held. Keith Titus, instructor in communi- cations, was the speaker. though the bulk of the “material was an outline from last year’s workshop, Titus also contri- buted much of his own. Topics discussed included types of leaders and problems encountered. Some of these problems, and other pos- sible experiences, were acted out, with mueh hilarity, by the group after breaking for lunch. Activities coordinator and Student Senate advisor, Henry Valli said special requests from stu- dents who had previously attended a leadership workshop and felt they could benefit from another, promp- ted the formation of the class. A better understanding of rules is another goal of the class, according to Valli, and the duo efforts of the Social Studies and communications classes, increase hopes for future programs of this sort. Sixteen students, representing “the Student Senate, the R. A. and the Law Enforcement Club, attend- ed the workshop, although 25 were registered. ~ Students expressed that future classes of this nature will be both welcome and beneficial. posal to ve voted on May 19. Boyd Kinnee, President of Citizens for Better Government, set up the question and answer period in an effort to meet a demand for more information about Proposal ‘A.’ Kinnee accomplished this with the cooperation of Citizens United for Tisch (C.U.T.). C.U.T. founded by Gwenda Dempsey, was origin- ally’ formed to get the Tisch II! pro- posal on the May 19 ballot along with ‘A.’ When this wasn’t accom- plished, the organization began w traveling around that state pointing out what they feel there are hidden taxes within Proposal ‘A.’ Alley was there to represent ‘A’ as he understands it from a legislative point of view. Tisch was there to ask the public to vote no on the proposal, to hang on until the representatives are up for re- election, and vote in new repre- sentatives to make the changes they want. Tisch feels that the govenor in offering the voter only one choice is using Brezhnev regime tactics. He stated, ‘’We don’t need this proposal because of the lan- guage, those dummies (government) are misleading you (voters) with words.’” In response, Alley stressed that Tisch II! wasn’t included on the May 19 ballot in order that the Buble could become well informed out one proposal at a time. Alley cited the confused public that went to the polls in November with Jim Miesen talking to high school students during high school visitation day on April 30. More photos on page 3.

He stated he won't make public decision on the proposal, only offer information so the public can make eer own educated decisions. DITORS COMMENT: While hinge tried to present a fairly ob- jective view of ‘A,’ Tisch seemed equally ready to ‘make a double barrel attack on the proposal as he views it. Where it is our convic- tion that many, voters walked away from that meeting with more in- formation, some of the attack was unnecessarily crass.
