Procedures questioned over Engle Hall case

The Engle Hall students' request for compensation was turned down Tuesday, as the college stood by its no-liability policy.

The policy, in its entirety, states: "Otterbein College is not responsible for the loss of money or valuables of any person or for the loss or damage of any resident's property by fire, water, or theft. Residents are encouraged to carry personal property insurance."

The Tan & Cardinal considers this policy unfair, when combined with Otterbein's requirements of residency for freshmen, sophomores and, in many cases, juniors. Since students not qualified to commute must live on campus and are required to sign a housing contract accepting liability for their property, the only choice left to students is whether to attend Otterbein.

This sort of double-jeopardy situation is not unique to Otterbein. According to Mary Pembroke, director of residence life, the majority of schools have a residency requirement for the first two years, and few, if any, schools are prepared to take responsibility for students' property.

While the liability stance is rather obvious, Otterbein's residency requirement seems to puzzle students. Pembroke said most schools recognize the importance for students, both academically and retention-wise, to live on campus for their first two years.

One thing the Tan & Cardinal feels the college neglected to do in the Engle Hall case, and needs to work on, is to have a procedure worked out for notifying students of any damage as soon as it is discovered.

The Tan & Cardinal urges students to check the coverage on their parent's homeowner insurance, and, if they have any valuables not covered there, to think seriously about taking out their own policy while at school.

Holder,a sophomore from Dayton, was crowned 1984 Winter Carnival Queen last Saturday night during halftime of the Otterbein-Denison game.

Winter weekend gets "1 O''

The 1984 Winter Carnival Weekend was an overall success with more people participating than last year.

Student Activities Coordinator, Becky Smith was pleased with the turn out. "We're trying to make winter homecoming as big as fall homecoming," Smith said.

Last Thursday, the Winter Carnival Weekend was off to a rocking start when WOBN provided entertainment during the dinner hours in the Campus Center After dinner they also MC'd the Otterbein Winter Olympics which were held in the Campus Center. Students participated in events such as tray and ice cube relays, ice cream eating contests and nerf football games.

On Friday, the weather eliminated the CPB ski trip to Clearfork, but the Dinner Theatre went on as planned.

The Winter Carnival court, along with others, dined in the Campus Center dining hall and enjoyed the theatre production afterward.

Saturday afternoon, the "Bridal Style Show" turned out to be a larger event than expected. Westerville residents, Otterbein students, parents and friends observed the Westerville Merchant's booths and the style show that followed. This part of the Winter Weekend was put together by Dawn Hobgood and Susan Carlson.

Saturday evening the men's basketball team was victorious over Denison.

To add to the highlights of the game, Kathy Holder was crowned the "1984 Winter Carnival Queen" by the 1983 queen, Kim Whitmore.

To end the Winter Carnival festivities, the queen and her court were guests at the off campus mixer at Howard Johnsons after the game.

OC wins blood drive

Otterbein won the fourth annual Cap-Otter Blood Drive with 122 pints, followed closely by Capital with 119 pints.

"We were really happy about the results of the Bloodmobile this year," said Shonda Keckley, one of the student coordinators of the event. "Last year we only collected about I00 units of blood; we would have liked to beat Capital by more, but we were glad to have increased our own total by so much."

The process of donating blood requires about one hour to complete. After a person has finished giving blood, he may not give much thought to what will be happening to it. There is, however, quite a complicated procedure which must be completed between the time the blood leaves the donor's arm and the time it is received by a patient in the hospital.

The bag into which the blood is first collected has palstic tubes connecting it to "satellite bags," which are used to collect samples of the blood for later testing in the lab. When the proper amount of blood has been collected from the donor, the bag is sealed off and packed in a refrigerated container. The blood is also treated with a solution to help prevent clotting.

The bags are then taken to the main laboratory on Broad Street, where the blood is tested for hepatitis and syphillis. Other tests may also be administered at this time to insure safety. it is then labeled as type 0, A, B, or Rh.

According to Gail Lakin, public relations director for Central Ohio Red Cross Blood Services, "The blood is tested and re-tested many times, not

only by us, but by the hospitals as well." It is essential that all the information is accurate, and that the blood does not carry any diseases, or is not contaminated in any way.

After the testing process, "the blood is processed into components, since it is usually not necessary to give a patient a whole unit of blood," said Lakin. Red blood cells, for example, are used to treat anemic patients, or those with an acute loss of blood, while platelets are used in the treatment of leukemia victims and cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The plasma is used for shock or burn victims. Since the shelf life of each component is different, breaking down the blood is also useful for storage purposes.

Each whole unit of blood - about one pint - costs the Red Cross about $44 to process. "It is a very expensive process," said Doug Price, donor resource consultant for Red Cross. "The main bag alone can cost anywhere from $6 to $10, depending on how many satellite bags are used."

Since the Red Cross does not pay for the blood itself, the processing fee is the only charge which is passed along to the hospitals receiving the blood. There are 51 hospitals which depend on the Central Ohio American Red Cross Blood Services to supply them with blood for patients. Anyone who is age 17-65, weighs at least l l O lbs. and is in good general health is eligible to donate blood. The Red Cross estimates that this includes about 80 percent of the general population, but only about five percent actually donate blood. Anyone with a history of hepatitis or yellow jaundice is not eligible to give blood.

Outstanding Greeks awarded scholarships

Fraternities and sororities aren't just for fun and games. Three students have proved that going Greek can be financially beneficial.

Val Devore, Kim Whitmore, and Andy Sinclair were recently awarded scholarships by their respective sorority and fraternity.

Val Devore, a senior from Columbus, and Kim Whitmore, ajuniorfrom Dayton, both members of Tau Epsilon Mu, were presented with scholarships at last Monday's chapter meeting. Devore and Whitmore were presented the Talisman "Marty Shawn-Allaman" Scholarship Foundation awards. The scholarship, which has existed since 1978, is open to all Otterbein women and is awarded on the basis of need, grades, and service to the college The scholarship is financed through the Talisman Alumni Chapter and individual TEM members.

Sinclair, a junior from Columbus, was awarded the $1,200 Pi Beta Sigma Scholarship. This scholarship has been given by the Pi Sig Alumni for over IO years Dean Dustheimer, Pi Sig president , said that the award is open to all Otterbein students and hopes for a larger monetary value next year. Sinclair, vice president and IFC representative, was awarded the scholarship for his leadership ability.

Other Greek organizations at Otterbein offer scholarship and loan opportunities for members, other Greeks, and Otterbein students.

The Pan-hellenic Council offers three scholarships per year, based on accumulative gpa's. The three scholarships consist of two at $100 and one business scholarship that amounts to $50. These scholarships are awarded during the spring of each year. Last year, $100 was awarded to Sherry Orr, and $50 was awarded to Debbie Hillis.

Epsilon Kappa Tau offers two scholarships. The EK T Alumni Award is presented annually during Homecoming Weekend. The gift amount is 10% of the EKT alumni fund, this year's winner was senior Billy Ken -

nedy. A $100 award is offered each year to the sophomore sorority member who has the highest gpa. Last year's winner was Sherry Orr.

Eta Phi Mu offers $100 prize money each year for the best thesis written on a predetermined topic. The thesis is judged by Otterbein faculty members and is open to J onda fraternity members only.

Kappa Phi Omega offers one Alumni Scholarship each term. The $50 gift is based on academic standard, participation in on-campus organizations, number of sorority offices

held, and an essay contest. Last term's winner was Sandy Ramey.

Sigma Alpha Tau sorority offers the Helen McDermott Scholarship Fund. The fund offers a 3 percent loan that can be awarded to junior and senior actives. Generally the loans are for the amount of $500 and are awarded to one or two members each year.

Each of these scholarships and Joans are awarded privately by the individual councils, sororities and fraternities. These monetary awards literally make the Otterbein Greek feel his or her time participating in leadership roles pays off.

Ke-Wa-Pa perfonnance examined Upcoming

In the second annual T &C bathroom investigation, the question "How well do the Ke-Wa-Pa people clean the bathrooms?" will be answered.

Three reporters inspected each bathroom in each of the residence halls, searching for overall cleanliness. These investigations took place in the evening and early evening hours to give the Ke-Wa-Pa person a chance to do their job.

The bathrooms were judged on general appearance, cleanliness, availability of paper towels and toilet paper and smell. The facilities were evaluated on a scale of one to five with one being the worst and five being the best. Each reporter was given a checklist in which to base their investigation on.

The numbers have been tabulated and the results are in. The cleanest bathroom in the women's residence halls was found in the front hall of Garst. With the exception of a slight smell in the shower area this bathroom shined as the cleanest and brightest.

In the men's dorms first floor Engle came out on top as the cleanest bathroom. Following close behind was second floor Engle.

Loan fund can help students

Otterbein students who find themselves with a temporary cash flow problem may find a short-term solution in the college emergency loan fund.

Administered by Dean of Students Joanne VanSant, the fund is available to students in need who can repay the interest-free loan within a short time period.

"We don't loan money for books, registration or tuition," said VanSant. Most applicants are full-time students who work on campus and find themselves without money to pay for food or rent, she said.

A student can borrow up to $50 and must sign a loan agreement and a copy is sent to the treasurer's office. If the loan is not repaid on time, the student is assessed a $5 fine that goes into the fund's principal.

Sue Long, secretary to the dean of students, said most borrowers pay back the loan within 30 days. "In the 1982-83 school year, only 18 out of the IOI loans were repaid late," she said.

In recent years the emergency fund has grown to about $1,800 through donations from Otterbein Women's Club and Campus Sharing Day, according to VanSant.

On the other side, there are some bathrooms that are not so clean. For the second year first floor of Davis Annex holds last place for the women's dorms. The only good thing found in this bathroom was plenty of available paper towels and toilet paper.

The worst bathroom belongs to

four floor Mayne. Compared to the other men's bathrooms on campus, this bathroom was a total mess.

Most bathrooms were simply adequate for college dorms. Considering the wear placed on them by the students each day the bathrooms could be worse.

The Westerville Civic Symphony emerged from the Otterbein College Chamber Orchestra in January, 1983. This concert marks their first anniversary.

Wood said the symphony draws its talent from the College as well as the community. Since Otterbein has very few string players, the talent from the community adds to the orchestra.

Wood praised the community aspect of the symphony stating, "It's a nice way to be not only a part of Otterbein College, but a part of Westerville."

Cards fall to Cap, rebound against Big Red

A loss to rival Capital University coupled with the Cardinal's domination of Denison leaves them in third place in the Ohio Athletic Conference.

Otterbein managed a strong comeback before halftime and ended the first half only one point down, 30-29.

After intermission the game remained close. Otterbein's biggest lead came on Kit Rowe's shot putting the Cards up 40-37. Capital regained the lead, 41-40, before Otterbein took their second and final lead, 42-41. From then on Capital was on top.

The game's top scorer was Capital's Darrin Blackford who had 19. High scorer for Otterbein was sophomore Mike McKinney with 15, while Gioffre chipped in for 12, and Langdon had 11. The Cardinals were 22 of 54 in field goals for 37.9 percent, while the Crusaders were 25 of 54 for 46.3 percent. Capital outrebounded the Cards, 35-31, with Dick Hempy being the

Susan Ogier led all scorers and rebounders with a career high 26 points and eleven boards. Kathy Cole contributed 22 points to the Cardinal cause and Lori Povisil added 12.

In their next outing Thursday evening, the ladies lost a close 63-59 contest to Marietta. Otterbein head coach Amy Backus was disappointed with the loss. "We led the whole game," said Backus, "but we lost the game. I felt we should have won."

Ogier again led all scorers with 24 points She was followed by Kristen McQuain who had 18 points and a game high 12 rebounds. Team leading scorer Kathy Cole contributed 16

On Saturday, the Lady Cards rebounded from Thursday's loss to post a 79-64 win over Mount Vernon Nazarene in the Rike Center. Backus felt the game was not very well played. "There was a great deal of fouling by both teams," said the coach, "neither team played really well, but we came out ahead."

Cole led all scorers in the game with 28 markers. McQuain had another excellent game scoring 13 points and again leading the team with 11 reboµnds.

With only six games remaining on the regular season schedule, the lady Cardinals have the opportunity to nail down their first winning season in five years.
