Hutzeln,an, Cedargren to square-off in election
By Greg Stemm
Ted Cedargren and Janet Hutzelman will face each other in a run-off election April 28, for the position of Student Trustee after last Wednesday's general election failed to produce a winner with a majority of the votes cast.
Cedargren, a sophomore, tallied 121 votes ; while Hutzelman, a junior, received 119 votes. There were 453 ballots cast.
Since the governance by-laws states the Student Trustee must be elected by a majority of votes cast a run-off is necessary to determine a winner.
Cedargren feels he has an advantage over H utzelman because he is a sophomore and will actually be on campus for two of the three years of the term as Trustee.
"I'm very visible on campus, I'm easy to get a hold of and easily accessible," said Cedargren.
Hutzelman cited her experience in dealing with a variety of different areas-of campus · affairs and her involvement in campus organizations.
follow-through in committee work and better communication between the governing bodies and the individuals being governed.
Cedargren also stands by his original platform of better visibility, the advantage of being a sophomore, and keeping campus buildings open for longer periods of time.
committee members in their normal Senate meeting, also last Wednesday (see related story).
The list of newly elected Senatorsat-large from most votes received to least is as follows:
However, Cedargren has changed his original position stating he believed the school should try to allow alcohol in fraternity houses only. Cedargren now believes the school should try the policy in all Greek houses, not just fraternities.
The new Trustee will replace Gary Baker, a 1980 graduate, who retires this June after a three year term as Student Trustee.
Both candidates feel confident about their chances in the run-off election.
"I was very pleased with the Senate elections and the Student Trustee race, I think my chances are good (in the run-off), I'm a sophomore and I'm very enthusiastic about the position," said Cedargren.
"I think I'm better informed as far as the issues, campus organizations and campus activities (than Cedargren). I've also worked with Greg Stemm and Dan Pohl (the other Student Trustee) and I know Where they stand on the issues and what they'd like to achieve as Trustees," said Hutzelman.
In reiterating their stands and philosophies on the position of Student Trustee, both candidates felt strong, competent leadership was a must in any Trustee.
A run-off for the sixty-fifth position as a Senator-at-large is also scheduled for April 28.
Because there must always be an equal student-faculty, administrator ratio in the Senate, 64 students from a field of 82 candidates were elected to balance the faculty, administrator number.
"The eiection turned-out like I thought it was going to-it was close, it was pretty much what I expected," said Hutzelman. "I think I have a pretty good chance in the run-off because a lot of the people who voted for candidates other than Ted or I will probably support me in the run-off election."
"The only way we're going to make any changes at Otterbein is if we communicate and we need stronger student leadership to do that," said Hutzelman.
"I think the campus needs strong leadership in the Student Trustee, I think I could help form a cohesive leadership rallying point on campus," Cedargren said.
Hutzelman said she stands by the platform she ran on in the general race, a platform which included better
However, a tie in the number of votes received for the sixty-fifth position forces a fun-off between Cathy Carlisle, Randy Hawk, and Angie Lacey.
The run-off elections are scheduled to be run similar to the general election with voting to take place in the Campus Center during the lunch and dinner hours.
In other elections on campus last Wednesday, Alison Prindle was elected by the faculty as the new Faculty Trustee. Also the Senate voted for

Senate meeting yields clarification of penalties
By Doug Stanley
The Otterbein College Senate passed several bills that will change policy regarding disciplinary action that may be imposed by judicial bodies and the Student Personnel staff. The new policies will go into effect Sept. 1.
tially dangerous to others or to the college.
The senate, in its session on April 14, approved a proposal written by the Judicial Task Force that gives the college the option of immediately suspending a student if that student poses an immediate threat to the safety of other individuals or the college.
President Thomas J. Kerr said that the change would not result in the wholesale suspension of students. Nevertheless, Kerr said that he felt that the option was needed if a situation should arise where a student is poten -
The senate also approved a Judicial Task Force proposal designed to make penalties for violation of college policy clearer in the minds of students and members of the Judicial Council. The new policy defines penalties that may be enacted as a letter of warning, disciplinary counseling, restitution for damages, restricted access to certain college equipment and areas, disciplinary probation, and disciplinary probation with restrictions. Dropped from the proposal, which was ammended on the senate floor, was a stipulation that a letter of notification would be sent to a student's parents if he were placed on disciplinary probation with restrictions.
Dr. John Coulter introduced the amendment, which passed 45-34, saying that he felt that sending a letter of notification to a student's parents was an attempt by the college to ignore the fact that students are legally adults at age 18.
Student Trustee Greg Stemm agreed with Coulter and said that he felt that the letters would be "a step backward from everything that students have won in the way of student rights in the past 20. years."
Chuck Castle, a member of the Judicial Task Force, was disappointed in the exclusion of that part of the proposal. Castle said that the rationale behind the notification letters was to let parents know that their son or daughter had seriously violated college policy.
"A lot of times, parents don't know that a student is in trouble until he is suspended," Castle said. Castle added that the notification letters would have given parents the opportunity to talk to their son or daughter in an attempt to help them with their problem.
The senate also approved proposals that clearly define major and minor violations of college policy and provide for a separate section in the Student Life Handbook for the inclusion of those definitions.
Specific penalties for violations of college policy were also set down by the senate's approval of another Judicial Task Force proposal. The

Turning out to vote
Now that the smoke is clearing from the elections held last week and the campus begins gearing up for the final vote for Student Trustee, we'd like to take a timeout to notice the efforts of some of the people who worked hard to make this election fly.
The efforts of the Elections, Communications, and Rules Committees were outstanding in coordinating the election activities and their publicity. This year's elections were by far the most publicly visible of any in recent memory. Those involved in the planning and implementation of those plans kept the elections in the public eye constantly. Their efforts are directly responsible for the improved voter turnout this year over years past.
Even the candidates should be commended in this regard, since their willingness to get their message to the voters contributed to the effort as a whole. Credit should be given, too, to that intrepid duo who crawled out of bed at 7:30 a.m. on election day to put little feet on the campus sidewalks to lead the way to the voting booth. They were dedicated soles, indeed.
While the total number of votes cast was earthshaking, it did represent a large jump in the number cast in last year's election and was the most cast since the elections in 1978. It also represents an encouraging turn in the apparent student attitude toward the governance system.
And now, to the business of electing the new Student Trustee ...

Laubach said the turn-out was "about normal, although I think the increased publicity this year helped voter turn-out."
Actual v oter figures back up Laubach's statements about the voter turnout this year being about normal for recent years Last year 357 people voted fo r S t udent Trustee, 401 in 1980, 413 in 1979 , and 452 in 1978. There has been a run-off election for Student rrustee each year except 1979.
"We haven't been satisfied in a number of years, but until we make some change in the voting process, I don't think we can expect any higher numbers," said Laubach.
Laubach said he felt most of the commuter students don't vote and an even smaller number of ADP students partcipate in the elections, although both parties are eligible to vote.
"We distributed voter information bulletins to the 510 commuter mailboxes when we first started to publicize the election process, two weeks later we found 450 of them had not been picked up, so we pulled them and redistributed them in classrooms " said Laubach.
In fact, Laubach feels the answer to low voter turn-outs might be to modify the voting process so it would take place in the classroom where everyone would have the opportunity to vote.

Inexperienced Cards drop two to Cavalier
By Bill Daubenmire
The Otterbein's women softball team traveled to Walsh College Tuesday afternoon, only to fall to the hands of their opponents, 7-3 and 8-7, in a double-header loss.
The Cardinals, now 2-8 on the season, were lead in the first game by Carolyn Barnhill's homerun.
In the second, and much closer game, Otterbein scored four runs in the last inning to go on top 7-3. In the bottom half of the inning, Walsh was able to come up with 5 runs to take the Cardinals 8- 7. Colleen Muldoon paced the Cards with a homerun and 2 RBIs.
In earlier action Saturday the Cards were victorious over Ashland 4-1, while dropping one to Heidelberg 9-8.
On Wednesday (4-14), the Cards came out on the short end of the stick twice, losing both games of a double header to Mt. Vernon Nazarene College, 18-11 and 10-4.
The day before, (4-13) the Cardinals traveled to Wilmington only to drop another double header 7-1 and 11-6, in an afternoon marred by errors.
'"In the early games, the errors were really costing us," Coach Amy Riddle said, adding, "but we've been improving with each game. We only had one in each of the games last Saturday."
In explanation of the errors Riddle stated, "The extensive rain hasn't helped as we've had four games cancelled already, and we need the experience. Many of the positions this year are manned by someone who has no experience at that position. We need practice and games in order for these people to feel comfortable at their position. Then things will run smoothly."
Riddle praised senior shortstop Colleen Muldoon, who currently leads the team in RBIs. "Colleen is the team's strongest hitter," Riddle said.
Riddle also commented that Jackie Cave has improved remarkably since her move from the infield to the out -
field. "Jackie Cave is coming on strong-we've moved her to the number three spot in the lineup, hoping she'll produce."
Another bright spot in the Cardinal lineup is senior rightfielder Joy Jackson. "Jackson didn't see much action last year," Riddle commented, "but as a starting rightfielder this year, she's done an outstanding job."
In scheduled play for the next week, the Cards will have played BaldwinWallace a double header on Wednesday. The Card then travel to Ohio Wesleyan on Saturday for games with OWU, Capital and CSU.
Senior Mark Burns faced tough competition from Baldwin-Wallace, Mount Union and Ohio Wesleyan as he took first place in the 5000 meters. Otterbein meets Ohio Wesleyan and Ohio Northern again today at home.
