Dear Tom and Ray: We have two cars that got

dinged up pretty badly in a recenthailstorm. Although none of thedents actually cracked the surfacepaint, our insurance company gen-erously gave us $5,000 for each carto replace the roof, trunk andhood, and to repair the doors andfenders. What we do with themoney is up to us. We suspect that$5,000 is more than one of thecars, a 2005 Toyota Echo that costus $12,000 new, is worth. Otherthan resale value, which we do notcare about since we intend to keepthe cars for many years, is thereany reason to actually make theserepairs? Do the dents affect thestructural integrity of the panels,and hence, perhaps, our safety?Will bad things happen later if wedon’t fix the dents now? — Daniel

RAY: No, nothing bad will hap-pen, Daniel. If you don’t care howthe car looks, or how much appealit has to a potential buyer, thenthere’s no reason to fix the dents.

TOM: If the hail had broken thepaint, then the paint eventuallywould start to flake off, and thecars would start to rust. That even-tually would create a safety issue— if it started to rust through —not to mention a “breeze” issue.But since the paintsurface is intact,you can just keep driving it.

RAY: And there may even be ad-vantages to leaving it like that.First of all, you’ll never have to

worry about it getting dinged in aparking lot.

TOM: You’ll always be able tofind your car in a stadium lot full ofsimilar cars.

RAY: And it may even drivestraighter. Hey, it works for golfballs!

The Mount Marty College nursing programheld a Pinning Ceremony for May and Decem-ber graduating nursing students on Friday,May 11, in the college’s Marian Auditorium.

Established in 1986, Mount Marty’s PinningCeremony acknowledges the achievement ofthe graduating seniors and their transitionfrom a student role to a professional role. Thenurse’s pin represents the philosophy of theschool and of the nursing program, and itspresentation signifies a sending forth or com-missioning of the students to begin their nurs-ing careers as graduates of MMC.

Tradition defines that the nursing pin isunique to the nursing program from which thestudent graduates. In the past, a nurse’s capand pin represented the school from which heor she attended. Today, Mount Marty’s pin re-mains as the lone symbol of their education.

Each element of the MMC nursing pin rep-resents an aspect of the nurse’s dedication.

Mount Marty’s pin is a black shield on goldwith a white cross embedded on the shield.The modified Benedictine cross represents acrossroads of ideas and also depicts the ulti-mate aim of the college: to form persons in theSpirit of Christ with apostolic zeal for theworld-wide work of restoring all things forChrist.
