RHA may Post Dispatch may be

Whether or not to continue having the Sunday edition of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch will be discussed by the Residence Hall Association Thursday.

Residence halls currently receive the St. Louis Post-Dispatch on Sundays, but the difference between the number of papers received and the return rate of the newspaper is very high.

The RHA is concerned about the cost of the newspapers because not all students are picking up the papers.

Mark Hudson, director of University Housing and Dining, said the Sunday edition of the Post-Dispatch costs 62.5 cents per paper, while other weekly editions cost 15.5 cents.

The issue was brought up and discussed last week, but the RHA decided to get some outside opinions before making a final decision.

RHA executive elections will be discussed as the RHA began taking nominations two weeks ago concerning four positions.The RHA plans to continue accepting nominations until the election.

The positions up for election include president, vice president, secretary and vice president of finance.

There is currently one nomination for president, two nominations for vice president and one nomination for vice president of finance.

The RHA will hold their weekly meeting at 5 p.m. Thursday in the lobby of Thomas Hall.
