“This is the first time we
have tried this off campus
and I think it’s good because
it might spark some interest
in a few different career areas
for the girls,” Charlotte Tay
lor, student activities adviser,
said. “This has been done at
other universities and worked
out very well. The major pu-
pose of this event is to give
our students an insight to life
after college’ as well as to in
troduce them to former
women students that are pur
suing careers in various
fields.”

RHA members also received
a report from Jim Ferguson, as

Ferguson said students can
expect a 116 percent increase in
the price of a red parking per

$36 for parking stickers will be
required to pay $78 for the fall

charged for comparable re

Ferguson said.
In other business, Ron Gar

students defer costs caused by
broken water pipes, raised

Reagan says spiritual growth’s hit
America during his administration
United Press International
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Presi
dent Reagan told evangelical
Christians Tuesday a “spiritual
awakening” has begun across
America during his administra
tion and renewed his commit
ment to the political agenda of
the religious right.
At the same time, he urged
advocates of school prayer
amendments and opponents of
abortion to conduct themselves
with “generosity, tolerance and
openness toward all.”
Invoking a central theme of
his re-election campaign, Rea
gan said America today “is see
ing a rebirth of freedom and
faith — a great national rene
wal.
“This renewal is more than
material. America has begun a
spiritual awakening. Faith and
hope are being restored. Amer
icans are turning hack to God.”
But in Washington, House
Speaker Thomas O’Neill com
plained that Reagan does not
even go to church and sug
gested he may sponsor legis
lation to build a chapel at Camp
David, the president’s hideway
in the mountains of Maryland.
The tongue-in-check prom
ise came in response to ques
tions about whether Reagan
could use the issue of school
prayer against Democrats in the
presidential campaign.
“I never even gave that a
thought,” O’Neill said. “There’s
a man who doesn’t even go to
church. I think I’ll pul up an
amendment to put a chapel at
Camp David.”
They were a family
torn apart by
temptation...
kept apart by pride...
but brought tosether
l>y a miracle!

In a speech to the National
Association of Evangelicals,
Reagan called for passage of
amendments to outlaw abortion
and make prayer a part of the
school day for public school stu
dents.
“Hasn’t something gone hay
wire when this great Constitu
tion of ours is invoked to allow
Nazis and Ku Klux Klansmen to
march on public property and
urge the extermination of Jews
and the subjugation of blacks,
but it supposedly prevents our
children from Bible study or
;
the saying of a simple prayer in
their schools?” Reagan said.
But he urged fundamentalist
conservatives who support him
to temper their zeal for the anti
abortion and school prayer leg
islation with tolerance for peo
ple who hold opposing views.
