U.S. Postage PAID Aberdeen, S.D. 57401 Permit No. 77 XPON1ENT Northern State College, Issue 16, Vol. 83, April 19, 1984 by Stacie Blank and Kristi Merkel President Brown received the report submitted by the ad hoc committee on Thursday, April 12, 1984 concerning the future of the Exponent. Brown stated that he is presently considering its content and expects to respond very shortly to the appropriate parties regarding his thoughts on the recommendations. "These recommen-dations by the committee are what the college will move toward in an orderly process," said Brown. From what the president has read of the committee's report he feels that his original decision made in December to continue funding the Exponent was correct. Brown stated, "Any institu-tion of higher education has a moral obligation to provide a student publica-tion." The purpose of the ad hoc commit-tee was to give the president necessary background on the environment of stu-dent publications and to strengthen the base of the student media. Brown stated, "There was no real or implied threat of freezing funds for the Expo-nent, and I do not contemplate any changes at this time." USD-S Any Bidders? by Dennis Murphy With the deadline closing in, sup-porters of the University of South Dakota-Springfield may find no one bidding for the school when it goes on the auction block Monday, April 16, 1984. Ken Jones, a Yankton pharmacist and spokesman for the pro-USD-S group South Dakotans for Technical Education, said Monday "there doesn't appear to be any bidders, and he isn't optimistic that any will be found." The Legislature approved a corn-promise putting the campus up for sale until May 1. After that, it could be turn-ed into a minimum-security prison. National College of Rapid City had reached a tentative agreement with Governor Bill Janklow to buy USD-S. Later National College said it would not bid on the school, as did other parties who expressed some interest in buying it. As recently as last week, Jones had said he was confident Janklow and other state officials were doing every-thing they could to find _a buyer for the school. But Monday, April 9, Jones' con-fidence had begun to slip. He said he wasn't pointing a finger at anyone, but that maybe it was time he should. "We don't know that it's anybody's fault;-but things aren't happening that I was under the impression would hap-pen," he said. "Now I wonder if that support is still there." David Volk, state commissioner of school and public lands said that he is trying to sell the school just as hard as ever. "I've been totally committed all along to selling it," he said. For example, Volk said he'd taken the extra step of placing an advertise-ment for the school in the Wall Street Journal, even though he didn't have to. Volk has set an appraised value of $1.7 million for the school. Spring Fling begins April 24 Now that spring is here(?), Spring Fling week at NSC is fast approaching. The festivities will begin on Tuesday, April 24 and run until Sunday, April 29. The first activity of the week will be a Mr. Northern Contest sponsored by the Student Association. Each dorm and organization will receive a letter asking them to sponsor someone in the following areas: occupational, preppie, body beautiful, and best buns. The competition will be held in the Union Ballroom at 7:00 p.m. After the Mr. Northern Contest is over there will be a dance from 9:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. that will feature the band Dillinger. Wednesday's events include the Festival on the Green from 12:00 to (continued on page 3)
