COLLEGE ROUNDUP:
High Cost of Living Hits Students

Church News

It appears that the current in-
flationary spiral is hitting college
{ students from all sides.
At the University of Wisconsin
officials have announced that a
hike in the residence hall rates is
necessary. The officials declared
that increasing costs make a hike
in the rent and board bill a neces-
sity at this time.
At Oregon University students
face an increase in tuition fees. A
hike of $5 per semester has been
proposed at Oregon. The in-
creased revenue would be used to

defray increased costs and to build
a new student union building.
Students at the University of
Minnesota have launched a cam-
paign against what they call "ex-
cess profiteering on the sale of
used text books by' local book
stores. The Minnesota Daily,
Gopher student newspaper,
charges that some bookstores
make as much as 110 per cent on
the sale of used text books.
A meeting has oeen called be-
tween bookstore owners and the
Minnesota student council in an

attempt to get prices lowered. And
if nothing is done about it the
Minnesota Daily urges that a non-
profit book exchange or a cooper-
ative bookstore be started by the
students themselves.
At Michigan State College the
student paper is carrying on a
drive to increase the wages of stu-
dents working in MSC dorms and
dining halls. The MSC student
paper says students there are paid
far below the standard wage for
work done in college dorms and
dining halls. The paper cites
higher wages here at the Univer-
sity of Michigan as one of the rea-
sons wages should be raised at
MSC.
The University chapter of AVC
is not the only group in the coun-
try concerned with increasing stu-
dent-veteran's subsistence pay-
ments under the GI Bill of Rights.
Reports from Northwestern Uni-
versity indicate that the local vet-
erans' organization is conducting
a cost-of-living survey similar to
the one planned by the University
AVC. The Northwestern veterans'
organization, Anchor and Eagle,
will determine from hundreds of
veteran students just how much it
costs them to live. And the in-
formation uncovered will be
turned over to Congress.
At Minnesota two married stu-
dent-veterans have already testi-
fied before a Congressional com-
mittee on the high cost of living.
The students told the lawmakers
that high costs have forced many
veterans to drop out of school.
It was also reported that a great
number of student-vets have been
forced to dip into their savings to
make financial ends meet.
Back at the University of Wis-
consin a Badger tradition has split
the campus. The Badger march-
ing band has never had a drum
majorette. But now one of the top
baton twirlers in the nation, Rose-
mary Schwebs, has enrolled in the
university. A lively controversy
has grown up among Badger stu-
dents as to whether the beauteous
baton twirler should be allowed to
perform with the Wisconsin band.
A recent action at the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin closely parallels
a move taken here among dormi-
tory residents. Wisconsin students
who live in university residence
halls have formed a Campus Resi-
dence Halls Political Association.
The new group will give residents
of dorms at Wisconsin an oppor-
tunity to take an active part in
campus politics. Also at Wiscon-
sin authorities seem to be in fa-
vor of relaxing conduct regula-
tions instead of tightening them
as is the case here. Wisconsin
co-eds are going to vote on a pro-
posal to allow sophomore women
one additional 12:30 permission
each night during the month.
