As the MSU volleyball team bids farewell to its seniors and to one of its toughest seasons in a decade, the remaining Spartans are looking ahead with a hopeful eye for next year.

Regarding Tim Phelps' request to return the $600,000 risk management fund to students in his letter, "Distribute ASMSU's funding to students," (SN 11/30) I would note that students can obtain a refund of their ASMSU tax ($13.75) - thereby making the suggested distribution unnecessary.
