What else does the council do? Well, the rest of our money goes to campus wide events and services: the First-Year Formal, Springfest, the shuttles to the airport at Thanksgiving and Winter Break, and shuttle buses to Yale. The fact of the matter is that since 1988, the prices for buses, hotel ballrooms, and big-name bands have gone...
...have negotiated a deal with the administration whereby the College organizes transportation for thousands of students who will ride next week to Yale and thousands more who will ride the week after to the airport. These services are provided to the community at the lowest price that will cover their cost. The council doesn't run a profit from any of these events or services.

Fort Jackson is in a sort of paralysis. The specialist who met our Basic Training class at Columbia Airport thought we might be "processed" - the purpose of our current limbo at the Arms Reception Battalion - in three to five days, before moving on to the real thing, boot camp.

Stewart's twin-engine Learjet 35 left Orlando International Airport promptly at 9:19 a.m. and 25 minutes later radioed that it had leveled off at 39,000 ft. Shortly afterward, though, air-traffic controllers noticed that the plane had climbed well above its assigned altitude. Controllers repeatedly tried to contact the pilots for an explanation but got no reply. At that point, the Federal Aviation Administration enlisted the help of the Air Force. Several F-16s were dispatched to check on the errant jet. It also missed the left turn it was scheduled to make toward Texas, and instead...
