Not So Fine

Stop nickeling and diming the students!" was the battle cry in August as the Student Assembly formally complained to the College that "fines levied by administrative departments are a pervasive, persistent headache which detract from students quality of life and overall satisfaction with the College." Among the fines they object to paying:

Burning candles or incense indoors, $100Climbing (unauthorized) College buildings, $50Excessive noise, $20Failure to clean vacated room, $30Failure to pass PE class, $5OFailure to pass PE requirement in first two years,$5O per termFurniture in hallways, $100Late D-Plan changes, $100Late filing of major, $10Late key return, $3OLate registration, $50Late vacating of dorms, $100Lofts, $100Mounting roofs, porticos, fire escapes, $100Parking, first two offenses, $50Parking, third offense, $100Pets in dorms, $50Possession of fireworks, $50

Acting treasurer Win Johnson '67 and acting Deanofthe College Dan Nelson '75 have told the Student Assembly they'd take a new look at the College policies on fines. Meantime, students can expect to put their money where their infractions are.
