"The Solano school district should do away with its music education programs. After all,
music programs are not especially popular in our schools: only 20 percent of our high
school students participated in music programs last year. Furthermore, very few of the
Solano district's college-bound students are interested in majoring in music at the
university level. Also, when the school district of our neighboring town of Rutherford
eliminated its music programs two years ago, the overall grade point average in the high

programs could be better used to improve the quality of traditional academic courses."

rates on city utilities to any company that would relocate to Dillton. Within 18 months,
two manufacturing companies moved to Dillton, where they employ a total of 300
people. Therefore, the fastest way for Beauville to stimulate economic development and
hence reduce unemployment is to provide tax incentives and other financial inducements
that encourage private companies to relocate here."

counselors than does Mira Vista College, 90 percent of last year's graduating seniors had
job offers from prospective employers. But at Mira Vista College last year, only 70
percent of the seniors who informed the placement office that they would be seeking
employment had found full-time jobs within three months after graduation, and only half
of these graduates were employed in their major field of study. To help Mira Vista's
graduates find employment, we must offer more courses in business and computer
