Hello freshman how are things going? Things are excellent with me. Well it seems that time has once again flown by. Regu- lar classes are coming to a conclusion and exams are about to begin. Please don’t get worried or flus- tered about your exams, there is no need for that. Reassure yourself of your abilities. After all, you have successfuly made it through this year. You have gotten through all the rough times and come out on top. There is no reason for you not to do just as well in your ex- ams. Study hard and think positive and you will come out on top.

Speaking of time going by this is the last edition of the Frolicking Freshman. It has been a tremendous pleasure for me to write this column. I hope that you have enjoyed reading it

FROLICKING FRESHMAN

as much as I have enjoyed writing it. In January when I started writing this arti- cle, I told you that one of the main goals of the Frol-

icking Freshman was to give .

freshmen a sense of belong- ing. I believe that this ar- ticle has achieved this goal.

I think that we as freshmen can call ourselves a pretty good family. I would like to say that it is you that have made this happen. You are all a great bunch of stu- dents and deserve a lot of credit for contributing to life hear at UPEI.

As for my job as fresh- man rep.: well that too will soon come to an end. It has been a tremendous pleasure to represent you. I hope I have been as help- ful to you as you have been to me. You freshmen have really inspired me. All of you have a tremendous amount of talent and ini- tiative. You have been a great bunch to represent. I can honestly say that I believe we will make the best sophomores this uni- versity has ever seen. In- deed when it comes time for us to graduate in 1990, I think we will be remem- bered as the students who

really got things moving at UPEI. Things are only go- ing to get better for us and personally, I can’t wait for next year. Thank you all very much for your support over the past year. It has been great to meet so many new friends, and I am sure that all of you have made many new friends as well. I would first of all like to wish you all the very best of luck

in your exams. I am con- fident we will all do great ( if I could only afford a new pen ). Secondly, havea wonderful summer. Swim, party, eat, drink, get burnt, and have a ball. Also make sure you come back to good old UPEI this fall. Next year is going to be a fantas- tic year. Good luck to you all. I would like to leave you. with a few lines from

ture of biological warfare, he said.

“The key thing about chemi- cal and biological weapons is they are useless in a mil- itary sense unless the at- tacker has defenses against them — in testing defenses, they are therefore develop- ing the ability to use the same weapons offensively,” he said.

Spiegelman emphasized that funding sources, rather than the ac- tual content of the research itself, are crucial in de- termining whether experi- ments should be classified as “military.”

was ultimately to kill peo- ple more efficiently.

He recognized that techniques developed in his research into bacte- rial growth rate could be adapted to inhumane pur- poses.

“Anything that you do which increases the tecni- cological base of society, which makes people able to do anything more efficently, the military can use.” said Spiegelman.

He cited the example of a researcher who studied
