Evans, Smith get nod for election by Linette Freeman The primary resuIts are in and the candidates for the 1990-91 Associated Students of North Idaho College student board are read y for the ballots, which will be cast Wednesday. On the ballot for president Colleen Evans (62) and Mau Smith (53) beat Al Thompson (41) and Felix McGowan (30). The race for the vice president's position was a closer one with candiales Stacey Pry (52) and Mason Hiau (48) defeating Ruth Woodbury (47) and Kathy Northway (36). An open forum for the candidates to present their views 10 the students will be held Mon· day from noon to 12:30 p.m. in the Student Union and from 12:30 to I p.m. in the Hedlund Building. Other candidates on the ballot arc Don.oa Wood, Kathy Rennert, Mitch Alexander and Angie Madel for the three sophomore senator positions

and Don Atha running uncontested for his second term as activities direc tor. Because there was only a one vote difference between Hiall and Woodbury the ballots were counted twice and the same 101als were reached for the two candidates with a slighi difference of one or two votes in other positions. Of nearly 2,500 students eligible to vote, only 186 people voted in lhe presidential primary and 183 for the vice president's posit on. Last year, when candidates were unopposed, only 28 studcn1s voted. The I.as! time an ASNIC election required a primary was in the spring of 1988, which resulted in the election of past· President Mary Jo Hansen. However, the number of candidates 1ha1 were on the ballot Wednesday is unusual for NIC because, according 10 ASN IC adviser Tony Stewart, "The last time we had a turnout this large was close 10 10 years ago."

Conflict is everywhere-on the streets (crime), among families, in religion and even in education; therefore, the effects of lhis conflict reflect upon people everywhere, according 10 Tony Stewart, political science instructor at North Idaho College and coordinator of Popcorn Forum Weck. The purpose for the week or talks and discussious is so s1uden1s and people from the community may

be able to gain a belier understanding of the conflict that directly affects them and discuss ways to deal with problems in a better way, Stewart explained. Spcalccrs, who arc experts on specific areas of conflict, will come 10 NIC to talk about these problems free of charge to anyone who will a11end and engage in conversation with the audience and a response panel about the subject. This will be happening the week of April 16-20 on NIC campus. - - - - --
