MSC Council nets $1,400
from lost-and-found auction
by Chris Thayer
Battalion Reporter
Watches, calculators, umbrel
las and other unclaimed articles
found on campus were sold
Wednesday in a lost-and-found
auction in the Memorial Student
Center.
Articles kept at the MSC
Main Desk for at least six
months are sold in an auction
every semester, said Kyle
Spencer, MSC Council vice pres
ident of entertainment prog
rams.
Karen Fitzgerald, the auc
tion’s staff adviser, said the
money raised goes to MSC prog
rams which are not self-
supporting, like the Madrigal
Dinners and the Christmas
programs.
This semester’s auction did
exceptionally well, Spencer said.
The Council raised $1,400,
more than it raised last spring.
Wednesday’s auction had ab
out half as many items as the fall
auction, but still brought more
than half the $2,200 raised then.
More umbrellas were sold
than any other item, Spencer
said.

am ... you’vecd
; your bitter and
ild never refld
k of a true
eixenter.’”Thei
e outlook of a
lldents in the honors sections tend
to make better grades in the class
than those in the regular sec
tions.
For example, last fall 72 per
cent of the students taking His
tory 106H, History of the Un
ited States, made an A or a B,
while only 45 percent of those in
regular sections made an A or a
B.
“An honors course is a little
more work, but it gives you a
chance for a broader and/or
deeper look at the subject,”
Cress said.
“The number of students en
rolled in the honors program
has gone up as the number of
courses we offer has risen,” he
said. “We’d like to have more
courses, but the departments
are so hard-pressed, it’s diffi
cult.”
Cress said there have been
several attempts to expand the
honors program into the Col
lege of Business, but staffing
problems have prevented it.
“They just don’t have the fa
culty in the College of Business
for them to pull a person out of a
large section to teach a small
honors class,” he said.
To take an honors course, a
student must have an overall
grade point ratio of at least 3.0
or the approval of the director
of the honors program. A mini
mum GPR of 3.2 is required for
Chemistry 227H, Organic Che
mistry I; Chemistry 237H,
Organic Chemistry Lab and
Physics 201H, College Physics.
The prerequisite for Mathe
matics 253H, Engineering
Mathematics III, is an A or B in
Mathematics 152, Engineering
Mathematics II, or Math 152H.
To preregister for honors
courses, students must meet
with their advisers and enter the
course numbers plus the H suf
fix on the course request card in
the card packet.
After the adviser has signed
the card, the student must get an
approval signature at the honors
program desk before the card
packet is turned in.
