Openhearingsset ongovernance_

Proposed changes in the Otterbein governance system will be discussed in open hearings scheduled for Feb. 4 and 11 at 7:30 p.m. in Conference Room # 1 of the Campus Center.

"Possibly the most import- _ ant change, so far as students are concerned, is the proposed combination of Campus Services and Campus Regulations Committees," according to Dr. Donald Bulthaup, chairman of the Governance Task Force sub-committee.

He also ranks "faily extensive procedural changes for the judicial bodies" and changes with regard to the President's "input into governance" as those proposals with high student interest.

Dr. ·Bulthaup explains that the President will retain the veto, in the task force proposal, but also will have power to return bills to committees for further work without actually exercising the veto.

· Dr. Bulthaup, - Dr. John Laubach, Dean Joanne Vansant, Jean Farkas and Chris Nicely are members of the

sub- committee.

After a year-long study, the Governance Task Force made its report to the Board of Trustees last May. Next step for the proposed changes is approval by the Administrative Council and then acceptance by the full College Senate.

"Nebula"is workshoptheater_ production

Today in Barlow Hall, "The Great Nebula in Orion will be presented at 4 p.m. Director Robyn Pruett says this workshop theatre production has to do with the dilemma of existence-of a person's dissatisfaction with his life.

In the workshop theatre program - the first day of production serves _ as the critique day and the cast learns by getting feedback from the audience and then presents the play a second time.

"Great Nebula" will be shown again this Sunday at 7:30 in Barlow.

Ciardi lecture set for this Thursday

Poet John Ciardi who will speak on Thursday, Feb. 5, 11 a.m., Cowan Hall, is a longtime favorite speaker on college campuses.

Being a former professor, Ciardi has a special interest in students. His writing and translations are used in classrooms across · the country. "How Does a Poem Mean?" and his translation of Dante's '' Divine Comedy,'' are used as texts in many American colleges.

Ciardi believes that poetry comes naturally to , people. "Everyone," he says, "simply by being a member of the human race, knows a lot about poetry and language."

His method of communicating ideas has won over many of his audiences. Ciardi has been described as "a warm human being who immediately establishes a friendly relationship with his audience."

Following his speech, CiaTdi will hold a question and answer period concerning his work as a poet and columist. Classes will be excused at 11 a.m. for his lecture.

·Covering Co·vert Decisions Epistle's Policy

Last week we let you know the Executive Committee turned down a request to allow representatives of the T&C ,rnd WOBN to attend their meetings.

They say that occasionally matters of a touchy nature -.:ome up: items that if publicized too early - could have an adverse effect on the Community. Personnell decisions, for example.

Or a more s~ecific example: the College might at some time be considering the purchase of a piece of property. Advance knowledge of Otterbein's interest could cause the realtor to hike his price.

The Executive Committee does believe (without hypocrisy) that in general the Otterbein Community needs to know the decisions that are being made.

But their approach to that end, I believe, is not the right approach.

True, student and faculty trustees are allowed to attend the meetings - as are the various College Deans. And true, they are all quite willing to discuss what happens at the meetings.

True, Dr. Funkhouser (Chairman of the Committee and the Board of Trustees) is easy to talk to and is willing to relate and discuss events of the meetings.

But why can't the Executive Committee consider the editor of the T&C and the news manager of WOBN to be responsible individuals?

It's not as if we were press from the outside world, totally unaccountable to the affairs of the college. We are able to hold appropriate matters in confidence.

And the real point: first-hand reporting is always better than second-hand.

Might I suggest a compromise: Let the Otterbein press attend the meetings. When a genuinely confidential issue is being discussed, we can be asked to leave.

To the Editor:

I want to thank you for your attempt to report on the very difficult and complicated subject of work study in the January 23rd T & C.

There are three areas, however, that I feel need further explanation in order to avoid misunderstanding for your readers of the nature and depth of the problem as you see it.

The first of these concerns the comments about the problems and questions students now have with the work study program. I did not mean to convey to you that the collegethe departments and the administration-has ''mishandl­

ed" any portion of the student

But there are immemorable times like this in which I their nature subject to varying appreciate very much being alive in a world full of interpretation, but there is no opportunities leading to the realization of the wholeness evidence that Otterbein's work within myself and with humanity. study program has ever been managed wrongly.

increase the number of college dollars going into work study because of the increase in the federal allocation.

These changes have also required adjustments within the various departments. The faculty, in particular, is making every attempt to gain an understanding of the work study procedures The fact that this emphasis was not made in the past should not imply that the program has been mishandled.

The second point of clarification concerns your reference to those students who might exceed their established need. Of course, such a situation would create probtems for botn the stu'ient and the college in the adn.mistration of the .;arnpus-based federal programs.

One step Jhat we took this year to help us control this area was to change the way student wages are listed on the monthly departmental budget reports. Our purpose was to provide the departments with the necessary data so they could begin to monitor the status of their own student employees, and to become aware of potential problem areas before they become a reality.

We think we are for the first time beginning to provide the means for departments to take the initial step in hiring replacements for students who had earned their maximum earnings. The departments should be concerned in this area and to date all have recognized the problems we are working with and have become involved in the process.

I believe that this new system will provide for better control over the student employment program, but it does not relieve tbe coordinated

responsibility that has always existed between the financial aid office and the treasurer's office to insure that no student receives more aid than he is entitled.

Finally I would like to comment about the inference that a student could get a job if he "knew the right person". This statement is misleading, and takes my response to your question out of context to the subject being discussed.

I believe you will find that most departments have hired work study students in the past if qualified applicants were available. Those originally hired were also replaced by work study applicants whenever poss ible. Non -work study students have always been hired as the lowest priority.

In resonding to the question as to why non-work study students are continued in jobs, perhaps it is because they are, as you report, "known." Once a student is trained, either work study or non-work study, it would be natural for a supervisor to want to continue that employee if at all possible in order to sustain continuity in the office routine. Even so, I am finding that supervisors are extremely willing to make sacrifices in continuity in order to make more jobs available to more work study students.

I also commented to you that I felt students have a natural tendency to seek positions in the departments of their major because they feel more at ease in applying to faculty members they know. I find nothing wrong with this, and as I stated, I observed this same thing during the recent Hiring Hall. Unfortunately this may work to the disadvantage of a student as well, if no job is available in the department of his or her major.

There are positions, however, that do require certain course prerequisites as part of the eligibility requirements In these instances, students hired are generally departmental majors.

Thank you for letting me take this opportunity to share these remarks with you. I hope the T & C will continue to report on issues that are important to all groups of the campus community.

Otterbein's amazing Card:1als continue to climb toward : he top of the nation's small college basketball heap

Two weeks ago they weren't · rated in the NCAA Division III poll. Last week they crawled to 13th.

This week, on the strength of a six-game winning streak t hat includ es a victory over previously top-ranked Wittenberg, the Cardinals jumped all the way to sixth.

Wittenberg fell to 11th and Ashland, a team the Otters walloped in mid-Ja1 9369, moved to ninth. hc:1c: s the top 10:

1. Coe (Iowa)

2. Monmouth (N.J.)

3 Lake Superior State (Mich.)

4 Alaska Fairbanks

5 Scranton (Pa.)

6.OTTERBEIN

7. Augustana (III.)

8. Occidental (Calif.)

9. Ashland 10. Colby (Me.)

Otter Head Coach Dick Reynolds, however, turns his nose up at polls and wants his players to do likewise for fear of the added pressure that can accompany weekly flirtations with the top 10. He's more concerned with taking each game one at a time

Consequently, Reynolds' thoughts are on Saturday night's opponent, Marietta, which the Otters roughed up at the Rike Center on January 6 (58-38). The Pioneers were 8-8 going into this week's play (1-4 in the OAC South), but Reynolds thinks they have improved in three weeks' time.

"It will be a dogfight," he

OttersedgeWittenberg

said. "Marietta is moving more, they're more aggressive and playing down there gives them an advantage."

Game time at Marietta's Ban Johnson Field House is 7:30p.m.

The Otters were 13-3 before Wednesday night's game at Ohio Wesleyan, thus making it a cinch that will surpass Reynolds' careful pre-season forecasts of a "realistic" 10-15 finish and an "optimistic" 15-10. Both seemed reasonable when considering the Otters were (and still are) in a rebuilding year.

Now Reynolds sounds a little more confident, but he remains cautious.

'' If we keep playing with the same aggressiveness and intensity, we should be at least .500 in the last games," he said. "If we can really muster it up, we could win at least eight of our last 10. But with Wittenberg and Capital still on the schedule it's not going to be any picnic.

"We're a good basketball team, but we could go sour. Every game it's like waiting for the roof to cave in. Maybe it won't."

The Otters will have their rematch with Capital next Tuesday night at 7:30 p.m. at the Rike Center (February 3). The Otters edged the Crusaders, 71-66, at Cap on January IO in a televised contest.

Three straight road games follow (Wooster, Muskingum, Denison), then comes the Rike Center showdown with Wittenberg followed by the regular season finale at home against Ohio Wesleyan.
