Junior, Senior housing defined in Off-Campus Housing Rules
By Stephanie Jeffries
"The confusion dealing with off campus housing for juniors needs to be jeared up before room selection begins in the spring," said Dave Peters, associate dean for student development.
The policy in the 1981-82 Campus Life Handbook states that all students are required to reside in college residence halls except the following:
I. Seniors reaching 22 years of age prior to the first day of classes fall term.
2. Junior and Senior men and women living in fraternity or sorority housing.
3. Married students.
4. Commuter students (students living with their parents within a thirty mile radius of Otterbein).
5. If the residence halls are filled by students who are required and those who choose to live in them, some juniors may have the opportunity to live off campus. Juniors who wish ' to be eligible must participate in a lottery
conducted during the spring term of a time and place to be announced. Permission will be authorized by the office of the Vice President for Student Affairs.
"The confusion," said Peters, "comes in when the students neglect the if and may in number five."
Students argue that juniors have been allowed to live off campus the past two year. "This was due to full capacity in the residence halls," said Peters. Otterbein's enrollment is down
somewhat and the decision to allow juniors to live off campus is no longer given, said Peters. This type of variation is allowed for in the policy.
Another important point is that one must be a senior by academic standing ( 135 hours minimum) to fall into category one.
Peters encourages juniors not to sign a lease or make any financial obligations for off campus housing until they have contacted a member of the Student Personnel staff.

Our search begins, again
We've heard it all ...
Throughout the past year the college community has looked at this publication and: Praised us, cussed at us, admired us, followed our sports, learned about what's new, read our features , disagreed with , told us when you thought we did things right and when you thought we did things wrong.
We believe the amount of feedback on a week-to-week basis simply exemplifies the old adage about the "power of the press".
Most of all, the staff has learned more than any classroom can provide about nearly any subject.
With that knowledge about the amount of power a student publication - can actually exert, the "T &C" begins its annual search for serious, qualified students to lead this publication next year. Below you will find descriptions of the various editorial positions available to any interested student.
The Publications Board will begin accepting applications Spring term.
Next week, descriptions for positions on the "Sibyl" will be highlighted.

While a good many letters that reach this section of the newspaper are of a negative nature, I would like to take a moment to accentuate on the positive.

Consistently one main ingredient always arises - the PEOPLE (students, faculty, staff, service department, etc.). I cannot recall a place where there has been such an abundancy of quality people.
While this article is a general applause to Otterbein College, I would at this time like to express my appreciation to my colleagues in the world of academia. Having my office in the

Rike Center, I tend to get isolated du e to the daily rigors of teaching, recruiting and coaching. This does not lend the opportunity to visit with the members of our faculty on a regular basis But, once a semester, I know I can count on our faculty for a prompt r esponse to the mid-term evaluation form I sent out on our student-athlet es I very much appreciate their extra time spent completing these forms.
In recruiting of prospective students, we always use our small teacherstudent ratio as a major selling point o f Otterbein College. This fact would be of little use if we could not back up thi s statistic without a faculty truly concerned with the student's needs at Otterbein.
On behalf of the Otterbein College Athletic Staff, I would like to officially thank our faculty for all their assi stance and a job well done!!!
Sincerely,

CoII ege Senate to elect 12 for Administrative Council
Editor's Note: The.following is part of a series ofr artic Ies presente db y t h e Tan and Cardinal to help prepare our readers for the upcoming senate e Iections in April. Each week a standing committee oft he Senate is b eing h ig hlighted in the hope that better understanding of t the governance system will lead to better participation in that system by students and faculty.
By Rhonda Fulton
On Wednesday, Apr. 14, the college senate will elect six faculty members and six students to serve on the Administrative Council.
According to President Thomas J. Kerr IV, chairman of the Administrative Council, "The single most importa nt function of the council is to recommend the college budget to the board Of trustees. "
The Administrtive Council's other duties include acting as a forum for campus problems, approving the college calendar, setting the enrollment quota, choosing a commencement speaker, and recommending to the senate the names of individuals who should be awarded honorary degrees.
The Administrative Council has five subcommittees, which are the Subcommittee on Budgets, the Subcommittee on Admissions and Student Aid, the Subcommittee on Campus Communications, and Subcommittee on Honorary Degrees, and the Subcommitt,ee on Steering.
Kerr explained the members of the council have the opportunity to work with a diverse group of faculty members and students. He added, "Members of the council are in direct contact with the top administrators of the college."
Kerr believes a student who runs for a position on the Administrative Council should be broadly interested in the college, as opposed to interested in only one or two specific college problems or policies.
Besides Kerr, the current members of the Administrative Council are Dr. Donald Bulthaup, Dean Joanne Van Sant, Woodrow Macke, Frank Fite, Dr. Jim Grissinger, Dr. George Phinney, Dr. Elmer Yoest, Dr. Harold Hancock, Jean Spero, Fred Thayer, Christine Cover, Kelly Fishbaugh, Mark Johnson, Eric Hall, Christine Turner, and Lisa Meacci.
Petitions due soon for Teacher Education Committee

Mary Tirey, Carol Winter, and Lisa Troche!man.
According to Dr. Chester Addington, chairman of the Teacher Education Committee, on Wednesday, Apr. 14, the college senate will elect two faculty members from the education department (one from elementary education and one from secondary education), three faculty members from other departments, one student, who is both a junior and a member of the teacher education program, and one other student to serve on the committee. The chairman of the education department will also serve as the chairman of the Teacher Education Committee.
The main functions of the committee are to recommend teacher education policies to the Curriculum Committee, to admit students to the teacher education program, and to recommend teacher education policies to the Curriculum Committee, and to recommend certification to students who complete the program.
Addington said the committee generally meets twice a term. However, unlike most of the other governance committees, the Teacher Education Committee also meets once or twice during the summer.

Dear Editor:
Addington believes a student who runs for a position on the Teacher Education Committee should be "a mature individual who can handle confidential information and who has some knowledge of what is required of a teacher."
Continued from page 2
Dr. Donald Bulthaup, chairman of the Academic Council, has recommended that Dr. William Hamilton replace him as the chairman of the council.
On Wednesday, April 14, the college senate will elect three faculty members and three students to serve on the Academic Council.
Hamilton explained the main functions of the council are to evaluate the distinction program, to nominate candidates for awards, fellowships, and scholarships, to evaluate the credits of transfer students, to interpret and apply the college's academic regulations, and to recommend to the Ad -
missions Office the names of students who were asked to withdraw from the college and are now eligible for readmission.
Hamilton believes "a student who serves on the council learns a great deal about the academic climate at Otterbein.
The Academic Council meets at 4:00 p.m. in Towers 2 I 6 on the first and third Thursday of every month.
Besides Hamilton and Bulthaup, the other members of the Academic Council are Dean Joanne VanSant, Dr. John Laubach, Dr. Harold Hancock, Dr. James Recob, Dr. Harriet Fayne, Lisa · McCague, Christine Turner, and Eric Hall.
We wish to express our disagreement with the editorial relating to the "boring" Senate meetings.
We do not feel the last meeting was boring, particularly when put in the proper perspective. The Senate meetings are designed to handle legislation referred from any of the eight Senate committees. At this meeting, there was no legislation referred by a committee. There were two announcements which directly affected every member of the College community. The first dealt with a thorough explanation of the election process, which we hoped the T & C would support. The second announcement dealt with the status of pending financial aid cuts, which will have a tremendous impact on each of us.
Had these announcements been postponed until the first Senate meeting of spring term, not many Senators would have been interested in hearing about the petition process which would have ended. The announcement about the financial aid cuts would have seemed superfluous in that Congress may have taken action, at least in the form of hearings, on this issue.
The Senate meetings have two responsibilities: (I) to deal with legislation and (2) to communicate important issues to the Senators, who in turn can pass this information on to their respective constituents.
We hope the T & C editorials will support our governance system, as our interpretation of responsible journalism is writing which supports the good and exposes the problems.

'Music Bathroom' brings Mayne showers in-tune
By Greg Stemm
"Hey Dick , can you turn the bathroom up?"
If you are a resident on second floor Mayne, the idea of turning a bathroom on, off, or up or down in volume has gotten to be pretty routine in the last two weeks, but to the rest ofus the idea may s eem a little strange.
The Music Bathroom (more commonly called MBR by the residents) consist s of a s peaker wired into a bathroom on the floor from the stereo system in Dick Day and Mark Kelly's room
Day said the idea originated as a joke between he and Kelly about the idea of having music with which to shower.
"I was getting ready to take a shower when one good song faded out, and another one came on. Mark jokingly suggested that I take one of my old speakers into the bathroom," said Day. "I took him seriously and put one of the speakers in the bathroom while I took a shower it was great!"
Day said another person came along and liked the idea. Then the RA said he liked it, along with several other residents, and the speaker became permanent.
"I have a new pair of speakers and my old ones where just sitting there collecting dust, so I thought it was a good idea," said Day.
Day's roommate, Kelly, said he originally thought of the idea of a joke also.
"We were just kidding about how neat it would be to have Billy Joel piped-in while we took showers," said Kelly, "I didn't take Dick seriously. I didn't think he'd go through with it."
With the help of Nick Proicou, another resident of the floor, and Phil Helser, one of the resident assistants
on the floor, Day tapped the wire to the ceiling in the hallway through the door in the bathroom and to the speaker, which is located on a podium contributed by Helser.
The electronic aid to singing in the shower begins its daily programming when Kelly gets up in the morning and turns the stereo on, usually around six or seven o'clock.
"I usually just turn the music on in the morning, and leave it on all day," said Kelly.
The music ends when the roommates go to bed , usually around midnight.
So far the idea has worked out with the residents on the floor, most of whom think MBR has many advantages beside the obvi-0us one of enjoying non-stop music during a shower or brushing teeth.
Many residents said they liked being able to tell what time it is from the radio when they take a shower in the morning, along with getting the weather report, sports, and news.
"We have had no complaints other than to change the music or to leave it on longer," said Kelly.
While there have been no strong protests from any residents, at least one person told Day he would not like the music on every day.
"Everybody likes it - I did have one guy say it wouldn't be good to have something blasting in his ear every morning , " said Day , "that's why we have one bathroom without a speaker and one with it."
Day, who also is the instigator of a photo gallery of candid shots of residents on second floor Mayne, said he donated the speaker for use in the bathroom because he likes and respects the people on the floor.
Day, a resident of Mayne

"Common sense" needed on Personnel Committee
By Rhonda Fulton
Two faculty members and two students will be elected by the College Senate on Wednesday, Apr. 14, to serve on the Personnel Committee.
The faculty members will serve on the committee for three years. The students, who must be juniors or seniors next year, will only serve on the committee for one year.
According to Dr. Donald Bulthaup, chairman of the Personnel Committee, the main functions of the committee are to review, propose, and approve personnel policies and actions; and to make recommendations to the college president and board of trustees concerning promotions, tenure, fringe benefits, salaries, leaves of absence, sabbatical leaves, hiring, and firing
Bulthaup said, "Of ali the committee assignements that I've had in 19
years, my work with the Personnel Committee has without exception been the most interesting and challenging of all."
Bulthaup added the Personnel Committee is often a difficult committee for many people to serve on.
"Sometimes the decisions the committee makes can have a drastic effect on people's lives. For many people the responsibility is just too much to handle," he said.
Bulthaup believes a person who serves on the committee should "have good common sense, and should be able to recognize a serious situation and then know how to act accordingly."
Besides Bulthaup, the current members of the Personnel Committee are Dr. J. Patrick Lewis, Dr. John K. Coulter, Dr. Michael Herschler, Dr. Jerry Jenkins, Dr. Marilyn Day, Chuck Castle, and Karen Medicus.
"The dryers should be a money saver for the college," said John Wathen, director of the physical plant. The dryers will cost the service department about $200 each while the expense of paper towels exceeds $5000 per year. However, the $200 figure does not include electricity used and maintenance needs of the new dryers.
One of the major concerns with the change to the dryers in the dormitories is one of excessive noise. Wathen said
that an effort would be made to avoid placing them in areas that would be annoying.
Macke said that other ways to sa ve the college money are constantly being explored. Areas reviewed in the past include heating and electrical systems and printing methods used by the college. He said changing to the automatic dryers and cutting back on paper products should provide the college with a 33 percent return on the initial investment and they will eventuall y pay for themselves.

Otterbein opened the second half in better fashion than they had finished the first with Cole and forward Kay Lucas each collecting six points in the first five minutes. However, the Cavaliers managed to keep them at bay, penetrating the lane for short jumpers by Hammer and Monteen Jones, who finished as her team's highscorer with 16 points.

Cole was the game's high-scorer with 19 points. Lucas collected ten on perfect shooting, hitting four of four from the field and two of two at the foul line. As a team, the Cards outshot the Cavaliers from the field, drilling 39 percent of their shots to their opponents' 37 percent.
The Cavaliers made up the difference at the foul line and on the backboards. They were 28 of 42 at the charity stripe, compared to 17 of 24 for Otterbein. They also pulled down 51 rebounds against only 24 for Otterbein.

The Gregory Award is voted on by the fourteen head coaches in the conference. Dolder was the first Otterbein student to be awarded the Gregory sinre it came into existence in 1956

Crusaders derail Cardinal's OAC title dreams
By Dave Graham
How do you beat a team that shoots 84 percent in the first half? The answer is you don't. That is what happened last week , Feb 24, when Capital in- ·. vaded the Rike Center for second round play in the Ohio Conference tournament and walked out a convincing victor with a I 02-87 win over Otterbein.
Otterbein closed its season with an 18- 7 record Capital, also 18- 7 after the win, lost to Wittenberg last Friday in overtime 68-65 in the Southern Division fianls.
In the Cap-Otterbein clash, the Crusaders ran to a 50-32 halftime lead, thanks to an incredible shooting spree which saw them make 21 of 25 shots from the field.
The Cardinals were never really in the game at any point because after a Ron Stewart lay-up put Otterbein in the lead 6-4 early in the game, Capital ran off eight straight points to take the lead for good, 12-6.
When Capital's Brent Markley hit a baseline jumper with 13:04 left in the first half to give his team a 20-9 bulge, it marked the last time OC would be able to get the deficit under ten points the rest of the night.
Capital's biggest lead came at the 16: IO mark in the second half when Stewart was called for a charging foul, his fourth foul of the game, and Otterbein was tagged with a technical foul. Cap converted the foul shots for a 62-34 lead.
The Crusaders ended the night shooting 69 percent, making 36 of their 52 attempts from the field. Cap also
