EDITORIAL:

God only knows that students don't.want to hear about A.F.S. (the Atlantic Federation of Students). well,

the iiiaei Sun

this is not directly about A.F.S. but rather about

money .

last Spring, the U.P.E.I. Student union held a

referendum concerning its joining A.F.S.

If the

majority of voters said yes, the Student union would join and each student would have to pay an extra dollar on their student fee which was to be sent to A.F.S. ‘

was to be sent.

The vote was yes.

Wehavepaidthe

dollar. Andthenoneytiagtobesent. 'Ihisdoesmeanthatasofyetthemoneyhasnotbeen

sent.

his is what is being done to us.

If the Student

Gmmcil decides not to pay A.F.S., they are doing just

what their bosses told them not to do.,

ignoring what we said in the referendum 1 Imagine if the Council decided we didn't know what was going cn when we voted George LbGibbm as. president. They might haveput poor George in a trust fund. {me referaidun should be just as decisive as that electim. ‘lhe oorxstitutim of the Studmtmion does not take such matters as funds allocated for special organize.
