The EXPONENT Wettstein Clarifies Points About Union-Bookstore In answer to some inquires by stu-dents and parents concerning the col-lege- owned businesses, the College Bookstore and the Union Building, the EXPONENT discussed with Dr. W.J. Wettstein, Dean of Men, some of the aspects of the institutions. A series of questions was asked Dr. Wettstein by the Exponent represent-ative. Q. What is the organization and the reason for fees in the Memorial Stu-dent Union Building? A. Each student pays $5.00 per quart-er as a union fee. This amount was determined and assessed by the stu-dent body as a result of a special election taken in 1956. The money received this way is, by reason of the same vote, used to retire the bonds issued to pay for the Union Building. This allocation cannot now be chang-ed because Northern State Teachers College has entered into a contract with the Government to write off the bonds in the manner, None of the union fee can be used for entertain-ment, union program, special events. Q. The fees charged for ping-pong, pool, and food service in the Union and Wolves Den are used for what purpose? A. The charges on the various activi-ties are used to meet the cost of op-eration. That is maintenance, replace-ment of equipment, an dfood. Q. Does the cost of operation in-clude employees of the Union? A. Yes, with the exception of the Di-rector of the Student Union, who is paid by the college just as any other member of the staff. Q. Under what terms does the Col-lege Bookstore operate? A.

In short, the bookstore is a nonprofit college owned and operated service to stu-dents. Q. Does the volume of business or any sort of commission determine the bookstore manager's salary._ A.

Building Decorated For Coming Holiday Northern took on the look of a met-ropolitan "strip" this past week with the addition of holiday decorations. However, not only the dorms were given the illumination; almost every other building on campus was given the brighter touch. Some of the more elaborate decora-tions adorn Lindberg Hall. The fresh-men men's dorm appeals to both the ear and the eye. Nearly twenty foot high carolers coupled with speakers featuring Christmas music give the "holiday" effect. Steele Hall came up with one of the few "stained glass windows" on campus. The window, a pastorial scene, shows the shepherds attracted by the Star as they mind their flocks. The other dormitories feature paint-ed poinsettas, stockings, and Christ-mas trees in addition to the strings of colored lights.
