In these post-war days, an epidemic of troubled minds is spreading among American citizens. People are concerned about the status of our nation in the hands of a leader who brought us into a highly controversial war. Many people are certain that George W. Bush is not the man for the job anymore.

Congruently, the general consensus from college students in the northeast is that they don’t like Bush and they want to take his power away however they can.

The Senior Class has entered their final semester at Salve and now begin preparations for graduation. As they look to the future, they can’t help but remember where they came from and what the Salve experience has meant to them.

Here you can get to know one of those seniors – Mindy Ryan.

Jay Hansen, a nationally known singer and songwriter, will perform at Salve in the Wakehurst Commuter Lounge on Wednesday, February 11, at 8:00 p.m. Hansen’s music has appeared on Dawson’s Creek and on various MTV programs.

Work-study students at Salve have a little more cash in their pockets this semester, thanks to a rise in the minimum wage in Rhode Island that went into effect on January 1. The former minimum wage, $6.15 per hour, was raised by sixty cents to $6. 75 per hour.

The cost of higher education is rising, making it necessary for many college students to obtain employment.

So exactly how can students make the most out of their valuable time? There are many ways for working students to make time for work, studying and socializing.
