Condoms to go on sale at UCF by Feb. 12
by Dan Horowitz
CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE
For the first time, condoms will be sold on the UCF
campus.Between Feb. 5 and Feb. 12, Wometco will
install condom vending machines in the bathrooms of
the Wild Pizza.
According to James Rawnsley, general manager of
Wometco, each condom will be sold for 50 cents and
there will be a variety available. The machines will be
white and have no advertisement other than the
word condom on the front. All profits from the sales
will go to a special concession fund to help AIDS
education on campus.
Movement to get prophylactics onto the campus
began in October of 1987 when Victor M. Collazo,
assistant director of the Student Center, made a
formal request to the President's Advisory Staff. The
Staff refused, saying "it was not appropriate at that
time."
In September-October of 1988, the Advisory Staff
received another request. Collazo received a memo in
January that condoms would be sold on campus.
Collazo said The Wild Pizza was designated as the
spot because "that's where the action is.. .and we have
that responsibility to help students protect themselves."
Student Government Senator David Mann said if
the issue came to a vote in the Senate, he felt it would
pass. Neither he nor Senator Scott Jenkins felt that
there was anything wrong with having the contraceptives on campus.
"The [students] I've talked to are for it. I haven't
talked to any students who were vehemently against
it," said Jenkins.
The Senators made it clear they felt that Student
Government was promoting safe and responsible sex.
Jenkins said that he had hopes to get a machine in an
area that stays open all night, such as The Commons.
Collazo felt that the subject would initially lead to
a lot of joking. "It's going to be very interesting...we're
going to see a lot of water balloons," he said.
Officials spar over
Student Union site
by Julie Bade
CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE
Plans for Phase One of
the proposed Student Union
remain on schedule despite
a disagreement over where
to locate the facility.
Student Body President
Denver Stutler, who favors
locating the Union in the
center of the campus just
northeast of the University
Bookstore, believes placing
it there would make a
"statement that [the Union]
is student-oriented." President Trevor Colbourn fa
vors a second site farther
north than the first. He
wants the first site to be
kept as a "central refuge."
According to Stutler,
building the Union on the
secondsite would place it too
far away from the rest of the
campus.
Facilities Planning
Commission Director Jerry
Osterhaus also favors the
first site. He agrees that
putting the Union in a central location "relates to the
overall   campus   environ-

Eubanks: Just not enough hours
by Joelle Subourne
CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE
Dr. Clifford L. Eubanks resigned as Dean of
the College of Business Jan. 26, after 14 years
in the position.
Eubanks will remain at the university until
August, through the summer term.
Eubanks expressed several reasons for his
resignation, but all led to one conclusion—there
are not enough hours in the day.
Eubanks started at UCF in 1975. "It's been
a long time," he said. "I'm excited about what
we've achieved in the College, though."
Eubanks explained that he felt this was a
good time to offer his resignation, partly due to
the fact that two major projects in which he has
been involved are nearly completed.
Dean McFall, Director of Public Affairs explained, Eubanks gave no one specific reason
for his resignation, but expressed that there are
not enough hours in the day and he wishes to
return to a "normal life."
Eubanks said he has many options. Returning to the classroom as a teacher, possibly at
UCF, is one such possibility.
Eubanks also plans to spend time with his
family.
"My daughter will only be home for three
more years and then will leave for college. I'd
like to spend some time with her."
The Dean said that, overall, his job has been
"a satisfying experience. I feel most fortunate to
have been a part of the College of Business."
Eubanks explained that the college has been
the most rapidly growing college, going from
1600 students out of 10,000 in the university, to
4800 students out of 18,000 now.
He said this has made his job busier, but he
is excited about what has been achieved.
Eubanks said the college has gotten support
from the local business community, which has
