A bill passed by the state Senate that would leave only $33 million remaining in Michigan’s “rainy day” fund is, at best, a quick solution that will keep the budget stabilized while the economy climbs to higher levels. At worst, it could be a disastrous decision that will mean tremendous hardships ahead. The legislation passed 37-0 in the Senate and has been sent to the House.
The Council of Graduate Students will meet at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday at 328 Student Services to discuss a proposed budget for the 2002-2003 year.

Sean McCarvel curiously watched as a tractor pulling two trailers loaded with grass modules growled by. Onlookers had to gaze through the dark, long and narrow tunnel at the field entrance of Spartan Stadium in hope of catching a small glimpse of the new grass being installed. Tractors dropped off their loads every 10 minutes and got back on the road just as another rig pulled in.

Since East Lansing voters couldn’t decide on just two candidates Monday, the decision will be left to chance. While Daphne O’Regan secured her seat on the school board, William Donohue and Randy Bell tied for second place, leaving the vote to be decided by two pieces of paper and a hat.

Michigan’s “tie vote” law was passed in 1955 and Bell, 46, commends its creators. “Fortunately, someone in Michigan was smart enough to create a process for this exact problem,” the 4-H leader said Tuesday.
