Good views ASG as student 'tool' "I want the student government to be a tool for the students. They should have someplace to go to express their concerns, someplace where their opinions are recognized as having value." These are the words of Associated Student Government president Mark Good, who feels the students should get in- volved in student affairs. "We had our first student assembly
meeting on September 12, and there were people from all areas of the campus. We got a lot done. I urge everyone to attend these meetings." Student Assembly meetings are held every Thursday at 3:30p.m. in the Faculty' Dining Room, in back of the Student· Union. "Two major concerns we are working on are the traffic and parking situation and the poor service in the cafeteria.

Tower completion near after three year wait It took time to become a reality, but it will give time and chime for much longer. The nearly finished fifty foot high carillon-clock tower, located on campus between the Student Union and the main parking lot, is a dream-come-true for the Patrons of Palomar, who have worked three years on the project. In May, 1974, their ideas began to be realized when the electronic carillon chimes were installed in the Student Activities office. Then recently the San Diego Gas and Electric Company donated four used utility poles for the tower in addition to the labor for installing them. "We are overjoyed because so many wonderful people have been with us all
the way," said Edna Pulver, chairman of the Patrons' effort. The project has been loaned $9,200 on a non-interest basis for installation fees by the Palomar College Development Foundation. The last and most prominent step in building the structure will be the placement of an imported four-face clock in the uppermost position, which will make it visible from Highway 78. Dr. Theodore Kilman, campus beautification committee chairman and Dean of Community Services, describes the tower ~';> a significant, artistic architectural addition to the college campus. ''This distinguished landmark will add a symbol of strength and endurance to Palomar College," said Kilman.

Suggestions on ways to become involved included: joining or even starting clubs, gardening in the Arboretum, working in peer counseling and tutoring groups, and volunteering assistance in activities to the Associated Students Group. The next level ofpaltfcipation stressed was becoming familiar with the library and the Learning Resource Centers. The president next spoke of the level of learning from classrooms, lectures, and text books. "Learning isn't an easy process. It really boils down to the establishment of a relationship between
the student and the instructor. Rapport and respect have a lot to do with the process." Dr. Huber then emphasized the level of celebration of life by suggesting a reverence for the sacredness of life. "What greater cause for a daily celebration, and if we all celebrated, who could kill or oppress or hate his fellow man?" Concluding his speech, Dr. Huber told the gathering that despite the large enrollment of8,000 day students, he and the faculty wanted to know and talk to the individual student. He urged that Palomar College begin to fill the communications gap. "Let us be listeners. Let us be talkers. But, above all, let us be human beings bent on preserving our dignity and the dignity of others no matter what."
