E Student Trustee Stemm F Breaks I Junior' Tradition 0

Sophomore Greg Stemm was elected to the position of

Student Trustee last week in a runoff with junior Kelly Fishbaugh. Stemm collected 164 votes to Fishbaugh's 93 in the special election held when the April 15 trustee election

failed to produce a candidate with a majority of the votes

In an act which, in a way overwhelmed me, you, the students of Otterbein, last Wednesday gave me a position of respect, leadership, and power - the position of Student Trustee.

Since the position is one that I do not look upon lightly, I am honored that so many of you feel that I am qualified to handle it.

This is especially true in light of the fact that I sought the office a year earlier in my college career than is considered "traditional.,,

For those of you who keep track of such things, yes, I am the first sophomore to be elected to this position since the governance system was established in the early 1970's.

That presents some interesting challenges for me and you both.

In the past when a trustee was elected for the two year term at the end of his or her junior year, he served his senior year and the year after he graduated.

Of course, the first year is a learning process, and while a lot can be accomplished, mistakes are bound to be made as well. The second year should be used with those mistakes in mind, establishing some clearer goals of what and how things can be done.

But all too often, the "student" trustee loses interest for whatever reason (lack of time, job demands, etc.) in the second year. This is mainly because he is no longer directly affected by the decisions on policy he is making.

In contrast, my junior year will be the time for me to work out the bugs and get the ball rolling. With that behind me, I can look forward to another year serving you while I'm still in school, and the vote I cast affects me just as directly as it will affect you.

- That's where you, the students I represent, come in. Rightt now, while I am still a "student trustee-elect" (my first of­

ficial meeting with the board is next September), is the time to start letting me know your views of the important issues of

Otterbein. Now, while I'm formulating ideas for the next two years, is the time to bring forward your ideas or complaints.

I represent you and I want to have all the information possible to do that openly, honestly, and fairly.

I do have some specific goals such as residence hall improvements, food service improvements, and health service improvements, and you will be hearing more about those in the coming two years.

The main thing which I would like to stress is communication. All too often, a student is very visible on campus before the election and then somehow moves into the shadows when the trusteeship begins.

Over the next two years, I do not expect that to happen with me. This first column is the start of what I hope will become a weekly update on current student government affairs. I hope it can also become a forum where I can let you know publicly where I stand on the issues at hand.

Butagain, let me stress that communication is a two-way venture. Ifully expect feedback, positive or negative, on any ideas expressed here or anywhere by me.

If you don't like the way something is being done, let me

know about it.

My campaign slogan of "change doesn't just happen, you make it happen" wasn't just a bunch of idle words-I mean that. Only you can change Otterbein's direction. My job is to see that your wishes are carried out.

Letters

We Done Good!

Dear Craig,

Just a quick compliment on the feature article in this week's·Tan and Cardinal. I found it interesting as well as informative. We students don't often have the opportunity to hear the views of someone as busy as the president of the college. I'd like to see more interviews like this.

Sincerely, Jim Bragg

CAMPUS CLIPPINGS

Host,Tour Applicants

For many years now, students have been a part of the Host and Tour program. This program involves students in touring prospective , students and their parents around the campus.

It takes a certain type of student to be a tour guide; a student who plans to compl1:He a college degree, and who believes in and respects the a·dministration of Otterbein. The student should work with the college in the recruiting of new students.

Many of the students who are visiting the campus have already made up their minds about attending Oiterbein, or they are in the process of making a decision. A tour guide makes an important impression on these students.

The group of Host and Tour received jackets this year for its hard work. The staff is proud to say that "we are continuing to work hard to make Host and Tour somethi'ng special."

The staff is now seeking new members for the 1981-82 staff. Please apply in the Admissions Office by Wednesday, May 13; the results will be announced in a week.

Current members should vote for new officers and report to Mary Applegate on their plans for returning next year.

The Cards opened the tourney on Saturday with a 4-1 loss to Cleveland State. CSU jumped off to an early 3-0 lead after two innings and allowed Otterbein only a sixth inning run.

Facing an early elimination from the tournament, the Cards took quick and de•cisive action in the first inning. The first seven batters scored enroute to a 9-2 thrashing of Cedarville. Barb ConrJ.elly, Carolyn Barnhill and Bea Hutson each had two RBIs. Colleen Muldoon, Sue Jenkins and Lynnda Crisso drove in one run apiece.

"We were relaxed against Cedarville," Riddle noted. "That was the only game we hit well. The team was

The rain also caused problems with the playing fields. Games were shuffled from field to field but Riddle thought the Cards adjusted well. For example, the first game Sunday was on a dirt infield while the BW contest was played on an all-grass infield.

The Cards had a post-tournament letdown Monday, as might be expected against a weak Central State club. Otterbein swept two from the visitors, 4-3 and 15-5.

"Central State wasn't as competitive as teams we saw in the tournament," Riddle said. The Cards took a 3-0 lead after one inning in the opener before Central State battled back to

Riddle switched the batting orde r ande fielding positions of some of the pla yers. For the first time this year someone other than Mindy Gosset t pitched. Grisso started and went four innings before Gossett returned to the mound.

Injured starters Vicki Hartsough and Linda Wappner returned to the lineup for the first time in a month. The combinations worked as the Cards scored five in the first, four in the third, three in the fifth and c losed the scoring with three more in the sixth. The doubleheader wins give the Cards a 13- 7 mark. The team travelled to BW yesterday in hopes of s3 bi t of revenge in a doubleheader in the season finale.

Gold and Woodruff Going Out Winners

For senior 1rack co-captains Wayne Woodruff an.d Bob Gold this weekend's Ohio Athletic Conference championship will be the last time to perform as a member of a program for which they have a great amount of pride.

After the championships at Baldwin Wallace each has visions of running in the nationals. Woodruff has already qualified in the 400 meter hurdles. Meanwhile, Gold hopes to make it in the 10,000 meter run Friday night.

Woodruff is the defending OAC champ in the 400 hurdles. The Centerburg native was a two-time allAmerican as a sophomore. He was named the most valuable perform, .n the track team last season.

Gold, trom Euclid, placed eighth in the OAC cross country championship rn the fall. In the championships last year he was third in the 10,000 and fifth in the 5,000.

Both are tireless workers whether it be in training or in bettering the track program. Woodruff spent Spring Break fixing hurdles and painting the block OC on the track. Gold spent the winter working th·e concession stands at the basketball games so next year's squad could earn money for a trip to Florida.

When asked why they go out of their way to get involved, words like pride and care cropped up in th 1r" answers.

"There's a lot of pride in being part of the program," Woodruff said. "I

As for the championship meet they feel this could be the Otters year to finish seco.nd, a feat no other Otterbein track team has ever done.

"This is by far the best team since 1··ve been here," Gold stated. "We have the two best runners in the conference, as far as I'm concerned, with Woodruff and Mark Burns. We are as deep as ever in the pole vault, shot and discus."

Woodruff feels the team is the most talented he has seen in his four years.

"We have a legitimate shot at second place," said Woodruff. "We have better depth and we're stronger, especially in the distance events."

They feel better unity among team members has made this year the most enjoyable of the four.

"We're a little closer team," Woodruff rioted'. "We have a group of guys that get along well, with no conflicts."

Gold believes the team has shown a lot of "character." He said that everyone on the team has shown those characteristics, and not just a few team members as in past years.

"It's been easier this year because the team has a better attitude," Gold said.

Personal goals for Gold and Woodruff are doing well in the OAC and continuing the season into the nationals.

Injuries have hampered his progress this season. Still, he won the

"I can deal with the pressure, Woodruff said. "Mentally you know what to expect."
