THE BATTALIOI
Parking

“I think it is good what they
are doing and it is about time
they did something to try and
change their image,” said senior
agricultural development major
Chuck Ratcliffe. “I like that they
lowered the 30 minute fines, but
they should have a lot more 30
minute spaces around campus.”
Jeannie Skalsky, a graduate
botany student and avid!®
rider, feels that she and
low bus riders and graduate*
dents are being left out.
“They still need to cki|
things where there are m
buses in the summer mi
between semesters sothegil
students who are still here«
get to campus if they don'tliaii

Weis said more changes

major and I found my forte was
writing, so I switched to agricul
tural journalism so that I could
write about animals,” said
Alycia Zuehlke, a junior agricul
tural journalism major.
Since the program left the
Department of Journalism in
2001, it opened its doors to writ
ing classes for non-majors.
However,students must meet the
prerequisites, said Dr. Deborah
Dunsford, a senior lecturer in
the agricultural journalism
department. Students, including
journalism majors, who wanted
to take basic journalism courses
such as media writing had a
lengthy wait in order to get
forced into the core media writ
ing classes.
“We love to have non-majors
who are interested in the general
classes,” Dunsford said.
Wingbach said agricultural
journalism majors have an edge
in the job market because of the
strong backgrounds in agricul
tural sciences.
“The journalism job market
may be saturated with past grad
uates, making it very difficult

You know, Melrose and Mini have a lot in common. They’re both hip,
have a ton to offer and leave people smiling. So wouldn’t it seem natural
to combine the two? Sure it would! That’s why Melrose is giving away a
Mini to one lucky person just for stopping by and taking a tour of our facility!
So cruise into Melrose, and you could cruise out in a brand new Mini!
