“It makes me feel

bad not getting into

classes I need. The

more I wait, the more

tuition goes up at other

schools.”

Open positions offer

students chance to lead

“A major fault like that is

not just a simple break in the

ground. It has all kinds of com-

plexity to it. Because they are

in a fault aware zone they have

to do a fault investigation.”

“We want students to want

to be a voice for the students,

someone who is willing to

represent the students at any

level, whether it is from the

President’s Office down to the

classroom level.”

“It is confusing to have

there are not enough

tutorials on how to

use it, there are a lot

of options and there is

not one central direc-

tory or main menu.”

Festivities welcome new Comet scholars

“It’s an ASU tradition but this year we want

to increase the number of students we know by introducing it to night-time students. I think it makes new students feel a part of the campus, and for

the returning students helps shake off stress.”

Forum pinpoints classroom difficultiesTeachers discuss instructional tips, share concerns

“We wanted to have an open space for

teachers to bring forth their concerns and

questions and bring in speakers depending on

the subject.”

Research clarifies leader’s purpose

“Ampim’s presenta-tion was illuminating. I knew some, but not all of the information the professor talked about tonight. Events such as tonight’s bring a better understanding to our

world.”

“I love what happens with the colors (of oil paints) when they mix slowly, unlike acrylic. The rich colors sing
