A
new
editor
again.
It
is
amazingly
easy
to
become
the
editor
of
the
newspaper
here,
did
you
know
that?
I
was
simply
walking
down
the
hall,
mesmerized
by
the
blinking
of
the
A-V
terminal,
when
I
realized
that
I
had
followed
its
subliminal
instructions
to
enter
the
Students'
Association
office
and
say
(in
a
voice
quite
unlike
my
own
was
I
channeling?)
"I
want
to
be
the
editor."
Sounds
like
a
poor
beginning
to
a
science
fiction
movie,
the
kind
that
they
made
in
the
sixties.
Everyone
stepped
back
in
wonder
such
ingnorance
is
not
often
found
in
the
halls
of
academia
and,
after
making
a
miraculously
swiftrecovery,
someone
made
me
sign
in
blood.
Simple,
eh?
The
first
issue
of
the
Free
Press
has
come
and
gone.
There
are
some
clarifications
that
I
would
like
to
make
about
JJlfPlIPHl!ilflQIHlNl
Edi
tori
a
J
G
o
m
men
ts
that
first
issue.
While
I
am
listed
as
the
editor
of
that
issue,
it
was
a
titular
position
only,
as
I
felt
that
what
was
in
the
works
when
I
arrived
on
the
scene
was
best
handled
by
those
who
had
started
it.
John
Togyi,
the
Editor
Pro-tern,
carried
the
ball
for
us
all
with
this
issue.
It
is
unfortunate
that
his
name
was
left
off
the
masthead,
but
the
layoff
staff
experienced
computer
difficulties
on
lay-out
night
Alas,
some
days
are
like
that.
Sorry,
John.
Apologies
are
in
order
also
to
Tom
Yerex,
who
wrote
the
article
"UN
Literacy
Book
Comes
to
CNC,"
without"
receiving
credity
for
it.
Tom
will
be
doing
many
more
articles
for
us,
for
which
he
will
receive
due
credit.
There
were
errors
in
the
last
issue,
and
some
students
were
highly
critical
of
this.
I
think
that
we
can
too
easily
lose
sight
of
the
fact
that
this
is
a
college
newspaper.
To
me
this
means
that
it
should
be
a
learning
experience,
nt
some
packaged
product,
like
Kraft
Macaroni
and
Cheese
Dinner.
While
a
Kraft
Dinner
may
be
easy
for
anyone
to
make
properly,
you
don't
leam
how
to
cook
from
it.
So
it
is
with
the
Free
Press.
We
are
human,
therefore
we
err,
Who
said
that?
!
My
guide
again?
This
could
get
out
of
hand.
We
at
the
Free
Press
are
getting
geared
to
go
for
the
rest
of
the
school
year.
Our
staff
will
be
doing
an
experiment
in
collective
writing.
The
story
must
be
continued
next
issue
by
someone
else,
who
will
pick
up
with
the
last
word
of
the
story.
We
hope
to
have
fun
with
this,
and
with
luck,
you,
the
reading
public,
will,
too.
We
will
be
placing
submissions
boxes
in
the
cafeteria
and
the
library
for
any
contributions
that
anyone
would
like
to
make
to
the
Free
Press.
While
suggestions
for
improvement
and
new
ideas
are
welcome,
what
we
need
most
is
articles
of
interest
to
the
students
of
CNC.
Look
for
these
boxes
to
submit
letters,
articles,

ries,
poetry,
photography,
or
suggestions.
And
lastly,
we
will
be
considering
the
continuation
of
the
Bi-Weekly
Babe.
Our
staff
is
divided
on
this,
with
the
men,
predictably,
in
favour
of
keeping
it.
My
personal
opinion
is
that
it
continues
the
sad
view
of
women
as
objects,
a
view
that
I
find
repugnant.
It
is
interesting
that
one
of
the
defenses
of
keeping
the
"Babe"
is
that
men
can
also
be
put
into
this
spot.
However,
men
around
campus
are
very
reluctant
to
be
characterized
in
this
way.
Why
don't
they
want
to
be
seen
as
"Babes"
or
"Hunks?"
Women
are
expected
to
be
flattered
by
the
attention
generated
by
this,
yet
the
men
are
shunning
the
opportunity.
If
men
don't
come
forward
in
large
numbers
to
be
photographed
for
the
Bi-Weekly
Hunk,
then
we'll
have
no
choice
but
to
jettison
the
"Babe."
We
would
like
to
hear
considered
opinions
on
this
topic.
