Image, Infighting and Student Government Progress

To the Editor: I am writing in response to Tim Young's column in the Oct. 17th issue concerning the Student Assembly ("Assembly Critics Wrong...")

Long a staple for women seeking guidance, the Older and Wiser Program for Men, which seeks to acquaint seniors and freshmen, will begin its second year tomorrow night.
