Standing in line gives students plenty of time to wonder why the line is so long and what might be done about it. Kaitlin Kemp, Kara Leinweber, and Michael McCoy stood in line for 45 minutes on Friday afternoon. They echo the concerns most students have about it. "This is ridiculous," said Kemp; an education major. "I have things to do tonight. I hope I can take this test before I have to go to work." "I'm not paying money to have to stand in line." Leinweber, a nursing major added. "They ought to stagger the tests or spend more money to fix the problem." McCoy, an Accounting major, agreed. "This is awful," he said, "but then the Saturday lines are even longer." The only amusement they found was watching the shocked faces of new victims who joined the end of the line. "Most of the time the wait is under twenty minutes," said Colleen Sorenson, Director of Testing Services. "We use a formula to help us plan a staffing schedule that usually keeps the lines in check. We also monitor the line hour by hour to make sure it stays short. If it looks as if the line is getting too long we can add additional staff at check in and open additional rooms for testing." Sorenson understands the concerns of students and realizes that standing in line to take a test "Testing" continued on P9. 3 - .i ' ; J 1 i mm. Students stand in line cutsie the Testing Center.

" Education bill not all it's cracked up to be By Windy Hanks WlWm Staff On Wednesday October 8, Utah State Superintendent of Public Instruction Steve Laing spoke to students and faculty of UVSC about President Bush's "pet" education bill, "No Child Left Behind" and spoke of the impact this bill is having on our schools and up-and-coming teachers in its second year. Laing talked about the benefits as well as concerns that affect our children, teachers, and ultimately future education majors. President Bush emphasized his concern that too many needy children arc being left behind in public schools and not getting the education they deserve. "NCLB focuses on meeting the needs of all students," said Laing, but there are still some drawbacks.
