CAMPUS UPDATE, September 12, 1979, Page 2 EDITORIAL We, the staff of Campus Update, hope to service the ACC community by publishing an accurate and in- formative paper that will enable the community to be aware of the facts-from basketball to adminis- tration. _This awareness is especially oe in the area of feminism. Discrimination has passed the blatant stage where a woman is property and a slave, to the subtle stage where it creeps dan- gerously into our subconscious. We hope to ¥eveal discriminations sub- tlety, contributing to the equality of all persons. Also, we welcome your opinions in “Letters to the Editor’. Persons wishing to submit ideas must sign their name. If requested, the name will be withheld. Letters can be dropped in Campus Update boxes in BTC and VLH. ERROR CAUSES PROBLEMS An error in the 1979-80 fall semes-_ ter schedule .class list has created problems inthe ACC art program. As corrected in the revised class list, Painting I1,111,1V; Ceramics 11, 111,1V; and Jewelry II,111,1V are being offer- _ ed this semester, as well as a begin- _ hing class in each area. This mistake has caused a 40 per-- cent loss of potential art students. Since each section requires a mini- mum of 13 students to continue being held as a class, many classes will’ be cancelled. These classes will have to be held as independent study. s Thursday, Sept. 13 is the last day to register for classes. Students are. encouraged to sign up for those art classes they thought weren't offered but now are.
