Alcohol sub-committee
Although the Halloween season is now behind us, an issue which has haunted Otterbein for several years is once again beginning to rattle some chains around campus.This issue is of course, the prospect of a change in the alcohol policy.
The ghost is certainly not a new one._On March 6, 1974, the Otterbein College Senate voted in favor of sending a proposal to the Board of Trustees which would have changed the alcohol po,licy to a more liberal attitude.In June, the Board considered the proposal and, after much debate, the final vote stood at 11 to J 1.The policy was referred to a special task force.
Seven years later, the policy review was still in limbo.Fortunately, �n entirely new approach is being instigated by the seemingly well organized Alcohol sub-committee this year.Rather than starting the year with the opinion that the policy needs to be changed, the group is entering into a research period with an open mind.
That puts a_great deal of the responsibility on the outcome of their final proposal (which they hope to present in March on the feedback they get from the campus community.
It is with a sense of guarded optimism that ,the "Tan and Cardinal" views the most recent attempts by the sub-committee to get this community input.Optimism, becapse we believe the approach the sub-committee has adopted is a responsible and mature one, and with some reserve,· as we question the amount of input they will actually receive.
Tuesday evening open hearings were held in the Campus Center.Granted, the issue has been around for seven ·years and in spme people's minds may be becoming old; however nine students is a poor representation -from a community of 1600 students, and more than a hundred faculty, administration and staff.We hope this evening's open hearings (in the Campus Center 8-10 p.m.) will be better attended, by 'members of the entire community.

Kerr trustee address notes enrollment, shifts

"We can't solve budget p�oblems justbyaddingnewstudents,"Kerrtold the trustees. He noted, for example, that ADP isreaching"certain limitations."
Parking could become a problem for the ADP's, Kerr added. Some of the majors are nearing maximum capacity which would not allow for studentincreasesin someareas.
Capacity limits in the dorms also affect enrollment. In 1979 the dorms were 60 over capacity, last year they wereeight short andthisfall49more studentswouldfilltheresidencehalls.

Budget adjustments to correct f�r cost shifts
Reporting for this article was clone by Karen Moore and Dave Graham. It was written by Dave Graham.
"Our main concern is to balance the fee level with the needs of the campus," explained Woodrow Macke, VicePresident for Business Affairs, on the recent budget adjustments imposed on campus.
Otterbein's campus wide expenses are running approximately $180,000 short of the budget which was set last winter.
Macke stated three prime reasons for the i'mpositions that will strike practically every facet of the Otterbein community..
The firs-tereason given for the change was that the Federal Government drastically reduced funds available for student aid last spring. These funds had already been promised to students.Macke said that there was "no way we can fit that into our budget without cutting something else out."
A second explanation was that there are 30 fewer "regulare students now than anticipated for the same time last year.
"A few less students are living in the dormitories and using the food services and yet the operating cost changes very little The extra income from a few more students in the dormitories would go to keep fees at a reasonable level for everybody," added Macke.
The final reason that Macke gave was the general rate of inflation in the country today-. He pointed out that when the gas bill for the college arrived for September it had risen 32 percent· from the prior month. The budget sub-committee had estimated an increase of about 17% for the entire year.
The gas company informed Macke that another increase of I 0- 12 percent is expected in December,and another increase is due in March.
As a result of the price rise, the budget for gas has bee·n moved from $185,000 to $218,000.
To fill the void. Macke looked at each of the 85 departments on campus individually. Each department is divided into two separate financial components, fixed costs such as salaries, and the variable costs like sun-
Food service survey
By Joy Grandstaff
The food service survey distributed by the Food Committee last week stirred comment and improvements by the food service at Otterbein.
In the survey 91 students rated the food service as fair, 23 rated it as good and 19 rated it poor. The service received one excellent vote.
These statistics seemed to show that the food service is satisfactory for most students, but could be improved. ·e S0me of these improvements havee already been planned and will soon bee taking effect in the dining hall.e
According to Chuck Porter, the food service director; one frequent complaint on the survey was the quality of the orange juice being used for breakfast. Porter said the reason for the dissatisfaction is that the students are used to Florida orange j\1ice, and
the food service has been using California orange juice.He went on to say that Florida orange juice has been ordered and should be here for use on Thursday morning.
Another complaint on the survey was the texture of the meat the food service serves. Most students indicated the meat was cooked too long.Porter said that earlier in the term students said it was not coo'ked long enough, so the cooks have been cooking� longer. He said now they know they need- to adjust back and try for the medium-medium well range.
Bob Gatti commented on this by saying that students don't realize that they can take their steaks back if it is not cooked to their taste. He said the food service will specially cook a rare steak for students or cook the steak they have longer, according to the student's preference.
plies and student help. "There seems to be alot of rumors flying around that we took 15% off of everything.I can't possibly do that," said Macke.Macke stated the example of taking $20,000 out of the teaching department,which had a total budget of $4 million."That is a long way from 15 percent," he said.
Some changes that have been made that are noticeable around campus are the new light timers that were installed in the library.Also, all of the lights in the library have been changed from 40 watt tubes to 35 watt tubes.A new ventilation system was also added to conserve energy,
Macke noted that every area was inspected and that every item, no matter how small, would be taken into consideration. Class scheduling, the amount of copied material for classes, double doors being kept closed, and the restricted use of some lights that have previously been left on around the clock are possible areas that could be modified.
Administrators who have recently resigned from Otterbein may not be replaced according to Macke."In the case of Mr. Bonek (the recently resigned assistant dean of admissions)
he'll be replaced but with a person doing different kinds of work at a lower pay level." said Macke. Other cuts include reducing the campus improvement fund from $180,000 to $160,000 for the upcoming year.
On the subject of returning the cut funds in the future Macke stated that "hopefully they'll be put back on a:n objective basis It will not be just across the board and give everybody back what they had."
Dr. Chester Addington,chairman of the Department of Education, said that although the salary of the faculty ·has not kept up with inflation, hee thinks "it is necessarye and that theye have to take the cuts in stride ande make the best of the resources available. Addington added that the cutse "do not really cut on the quality of thee program."
Dr. Morton Achter, chairman of the Music Department, echoed Addington by stating that we must "live with them as best as we can!" The Music Department will most likely cut back on the choir tours and the band tour by taveling mostly in the state of - ·eOhio."I think we have to be optimistic about the future."e
The area of menu selection on the survey was weak as far as yielding the information needed to make changes. Porter said that the service needs specific input from the students as to the items they want more or less of.The survey did not give the opportunity for the students to give this information.
According to Gatti,a new survey will be taken in the near future which will include more specifics so the food service knows exactly what·e menu cycles are prefer.red by students.
Gatti comminted that one main problem with the food service is the lack of communication between the operators of the service and the students.He said employees of the food service always hear the negative comments of the students and rarely any positive comments. "When the food is bad everyone complains. When the
food 1s gooa, they just don't say anything," said Gatti.
Ua1ti also said that due to the general opinion that food service is poor during exam time,they have scheduled special attr,actions for that timeeoer:Ln.f!e . The Thursday before exams, Nov. 19.e the food service wi-11 be servinge their annual Thanksgiving dinner.e Nov.20 will be a November Pest featuring the accordian player frome Diebel's.e Nov. 22 will be a midnight breakfast from I 0-12 and Nov.23 there will be a study break with donuts and coffee being served from 9-11 p.m. Tuesday, Nov.24, the food service will provide a coffee break from 8-10a.m and also have an additional steak night that evening.

Lack of alumni support ---Campus Roundup- stifles zeta Phi comeback
By Brad Keiser
The door stands wide open allowing the season's leaves to drift aimlessly inside the entry way, not unlike the occupants of the Zeta Phi fraternity house in recent months.
Though the trophies line the wall on either side of the fireplace symbolizing the once proud athletic tradition of Zeta Phi, a smoke alarm squeaks intermittently indicating a battery near the end of its life. Batteries are replaceable, unfortunately traditions are not.
Supporters of Zeta Phi voiced their displeasure with alumni during homecoming week by hanging this sign from the front of the house.
- Pho10 hr .le/( /Jol'hm
For those of you unfamiliar with the plight of the Zeta Phi fraternity, they were a victim of the "Animal House syndrome" two years ago. The fraternity's charter was revoked in Feb. 1980 after they were found guilty on charges of having an unscheduled campus event, and having alcoholic beverages I
in the house while on probation.e
Tom Heisy, Vice-President of thee Alumni Executive Committee addressed about 20 former Zeta Phie members at the house following thee homecoming parade last Saturcay. Hee told them, "we (the executive co:nmittee) want to refinance the house,e which will be about a $35-40,000 project." "We've got twelve guys that want to reorganize the fraternity, but they'ree waiting for the alumni to quit talkinge and start acting."e
Jeff Define, president of the campuse interest group to reorganize Zeti Phie concurs, "the constitution and by-lawse to be submitted to the Inter-Fraternitye Councii are almost complete, we'ree just waiting for the alumni to come through."
According to H�isy, the past two years a group of 12-15 men were scheduled to move into the house ate the beginning of fall term, but theye found other housing when the alumni·e failed to make improvements to thee house.e
"The alumni close by (in Westerville and Columbus) won't help oute with the exception of four or five individuals, and these guys have been overworked and disappointed by the lacke of support for their e,fforts," Heisye noted.e
Presently the last active memberse of Zeta Phi fraternity are seniors. Bye next fall, the black and gold jacketse with "Rats " emblazoned across thee back will have vanished forever.e
The lack of organizational strengthe within the Zeta Phi alumni was thee basis of its original downfall. Beforee revocation of Zeta's charter the alumnie had not "been minding the store" fore 8-9 years, according to Heisy. Nowe seemingly. this weakness in the alumnie organization rriay be the hand thate closes the book on the final chaptere of Zeta Phi.e
