The Importance of Veteran's Day BY JENNIFER HEIM, STAFFWRITER Veteran's Day. To many student's here at Northern, this day means just a day off from class. That's it. But what is Veteran's Day? It must have some kind of valid reason for being declared a federal holiday, right? As some of you may (or may not) remember from previous history classes, Veteran's Day began as Ar-mistice Day. It is the agreed date of peace at the end of the first World War. On the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month (November 11, 1918), World War I ended. Over the years it has evolved into more of a commemorative event to honor and show thanks to our country's veterans, not only World War I vets, but veterans from all the wars. To Neil Jensen, a junior at NSU who served in Desert Storm, Veteran's Day is "A day set aside to honor those who served in the mili-tary and their accomplishments." "It's to show how many veterans there are, and to give back to the veter-ans what they gave for us," said Dan Frevert, a sophomore who has served at Panama and in Desert Storm. Frevert and Jensen, who can be found in the Veteran's Affairs office, went on to say that it is a day for unit reunions, getting together for a day and sharing memories, seeing how one another is doing, and so on. Once you get to-gether in a military unit and fight to protect your country, "a special bond is formed and it's something you don't want to lose," Frevert said. With that established, how do some other Northern students feel about Veteran's Day? "Not much, since I'm not a vet," said Dwayne Wilson, a sophomore. Jerry Palmer, gradu-ate, and Marie Foss, sophomore, both agreed that it is "a day to respect all service people, not just those who served in wars." Steph Boykin, ajunior, replied that Veteran's Day is "a time that we honor those who fought for our free-dom and our country. It's especially important to me because my father is a veteran. All veterans deserve to be honored." We should take time out this year to appreciate our veterans. Everyone knows at least one veteran and maybe we should let our fathers, brothers, cousins, uncles and anyone else we know that served in a war, that we respect them and thank them for pro-tecting us. But I know many of us agree with David Borowski, a fresh-man, "It should be on Monday or Friday!" Non-Profit Org.

BY ANN VIDOLOFF, STAFFWRITER For the November 5 Student Senate meeting, the earth was moved, huge policies were set into motion, and President Sutton entertained the media with a belly dance in a purple tutu. Of course this didn't really happen at all, because this meeting was more of a formality meeting, where certain policies needed to be acknowledged before voting, and future events were tentatively scheduled. Congratulations go to Tay-lor Oster, the new senator from Steele Hall, who was inducted at this meeting. Senator Mitzel reviewed the results of the meeting held with Wayne Fischer, Director of the Physical Plant. Senator Brist recalled a similar-sounding conversation with Pollworth about the plight of the "What's Up." Senator Mikkonen relayed the idea that some students who smoke are considering purchasing a building off campus that would be available for STUDENT SENATE smoking purposes. There will be lots of construction occurring on the second floor of the Student Union. Eventually, Bob Courtney, Director of Student Development and Residence Life, Mike Breitner, Director of Student Activities, and the SA president and vice-president's offices will all be located in one common area where the SA lounge and Non-Traditional offices are currently located. DACOTAH HALL IS OPEN! This was probably one of the most discussed topics at this meeting. Tuesday and Thursday nights from 6 to 7 p.m. McWelsh hall will be sponsoring aerobics at Dacotah hall. The Senate also approved $100 to buy some equipment such as basketballs to be used in the gym. This is the opportunity for all of you couch potatoes to turn into potatoes julienne. Marcia Martz, assistant hall director for Jerde Hall and graduate student, was present at this meeting on behalf of the graduate students. It is a little known fact that there are over 200 graduate students on this campus, all with the potential to become greatly involved in campus organizations and deci-sions. She is hoping to restart the Graduate Student Senate, and get more graduate students involved on campus. Tentative dates were discussed for SHED (Students in Higher Education) Days. The motion to elect three more uni-versity senators, and to appoint another faculty member to SBAC was read, and will be voted on at the next meeting. If the motion for senate expansion passes, the petitions will be opened on November 16 and voted on in December. Sometimes Senate meetings are work and technicalities, but these are necessary to have the more exciting ones as well. Sno Sho, 17th Century relic Page 3 Garbage, how much "can" we afford?
