Western sends College Store cease and desist order for ad Tom Callis THE WESTERN FRONT In the Sept. 26 issue of The Western Front, The College Store purchased a full-page advertisement displaying a cease and desist notice from Western's legal representative Lisa Wochos, an assistant attorney general for Washington state. The notice, dated Aug. 4, pertained to an illegal chalk drawing in Red Square's free speech zone displaying the book stores name and location, Wochos said. "The free speech zone is there for students to utilize primarily for free speech purposes; it's not for commercial activity," Director of Viking Union Facilities Jim Schuster said. "There are many commercial businesses that would love to get a hold of this population and I think we // have a responsibility to make sure that the university is first and foremost an academic institution and that's where our priorities tend to be," Schuster said The College Store displayed another chalk drawing in June for book buy-back, which went unmentioned by the university, College Store General Manager Josh Canham said. "The policy is a disservice to students," Canham said, "t consider us as part of the academic community and I think students would agree." Canham said the College Store currently has no interest in challenging the order. The Associated Student Bookstore general manager Lara Mann said the store has a great working relationship with the College Store and she doesn't have a problem with it advertising on campus as long as it complies with regulations. Many students, such as junior Melissa Lawler, choose to shop at the College Store because it has a larger selection of used books. "If the student store had more used books I would support the school," Lawler said. The student bookstore provides students with a 10 percent discount on all new books, Mann said. This is lower than 87 percent of college bookstores in the country, which makes it important for the store to maintain a certain level of business, she said. "We recognize textbooks are expensive," Mann said. "It's important to us to keep as many used textbooks as possible." The College Store is one of 137 college bookstores across the country owned by Nebraska Books.

David Ruble, manager of conference and guest housing and overseer of the HELP program, attributes the record turnout to effective advertising and word-of-mouth. "When current residential students re-register for housing in the spring for the next academic year, they have the option to say that they are interested in being a HELP volunteer," Ruble said. Nick Fomin, program assistant for conference and guest housing, teamed up with Ruble to compile the list of interested returning students, then recruited incoming freshmen at the summer orientation program called Summerstart. Students who have been a HELP really talk up the program to their friends and recruit them, Ruble said.
