(Daily Collegian) (U-WIRE) STATE COLLEGE, Penn. -- Some State College Borough Council members believe eight years (two terms) is plenty of time for council members to reach their goals.

If the proposal is approved, council members would have to take two years off after reaching their term limit before being allowed to run again.
Meyer is really on to something here. Why didn't anyone think of this before?
Eight years is a long time. Check out a magazine or newspaper ...
