In the past, Mercer has been plagued voters alike. Remember, there are plenty
with apathy. Everybody complained, but of ways to get involved in your school
nobody did anything about the pro- even if you don’t run for office. See your
blems. The 1961-82 administration had senators for information. Whether you
layed the foundations for good relations decide to get involved or not is up to you,
with both students and administration we just ask that you keep us in mind if
and the goal of the present administra- you have any problems,
tion is to continue on the path. Within Have a great year!
