Campus discussed

Registration for ECU's unique overseas campus program at
Bonn, Germany for 1972-73 is now possible for only one or two
Quarters, as well as for the entire academic year. This
announcement was made last week by Dr. Robert W. Williams,
University Provost, shortly after his retum from a visit to Bonn.
In addition to negotiating the terms of ECU's contract with the
German foundauion which owns Haus Steineck, the site of ECU
Bonn, Williams discussed the current Program with the Risedent
Director, Dr. Hans H. Indorf of the ECU Political Science
‘Department, German staff members, and most of all with the
students.

His findings generally coincided with the opinions expressed
in The Forum (Fountainhead, Tuesday, March 21) by 29 of the
37 students curently at Bonn. Like most other major
undertakings, international or otherwise, the Bonn program has
had its share of problems, Williams acknowledged. These have
been recognized and appropriate corrective action has been
initiated.

Most of the problems have been due to inflation in Germany
and the worldwide decline in the value of the American dollar
The monetary situation has been attacked in two ways. First, the
fee for the Bonn program has been increased for next year by
Nearly ten percent. Second, the contract with the German
foundation has been written in such a way as to reduce somewhat
the total cost of leasing Haus Steineck. Another change, opening
registration on a quarter by quarter basis, is intended to make the
program available to more students, thereby reducing the
possibility that it might have to be discontinued for lack of
participants

To make application or obtain additional information on cost
and travel arrangements for one or two quarters or the entire
year, see Robert Franke, campus administrator for the Bonn
program, in Room A-105 of the Social Studies Building, between
8:30 and 5:00. If at all possible, Franke suggests that you see him
before the spring holidays.

SGA candidates receive students’ endorsements

To Fountainhead

Undoubtedly, the candidates that receive letters. receive them
by solicitation and the ktter content is full of analytical reasons
why so and so should hold a particular office

Well, this letter will not contain any qualitative analysis of
each candidate nor was it solicited by any member of the
S.O.AP. platform committee, but instead it was offered to the
committee as 4 token of appreciation

 

Students of Anarchist Principles, is by far the most progressive
student eriented organization on campus. Its platform is’simple
and to the point-abolish the SGA Some on this campus can see
the SOAP viewpoint, others on campus, they don't understand
why the abolition of the SGA is needed

It is needed so that the students on this campus, and others
like it can control the student aspect of the University without
having some political cgotist telling the students what to do. The
students on each and every university campus should and must
control student funds. To do this certain steps must be taken: 1)
the students must confront the student body as a whole and tell
students of administrative controls, 2) the students must then tell
the administration that reforms must be made and 3) after the
administration has refused (as on this campus) the students must
then become independent of the administration

Alter the SGA has been moved off campus, then working
through the court system the students will sue the State of North
Carolina claiming legal control of their funds. The battle will be
long and difficult, but students of every type complain about the
administration but up until now no one would do anything. Well,
SOAP is now the only alternative, and looking at every alternative
that is put before the student, the logical road to take

On Tuesday , March 28, vote SOAP.

On Tuesday, March 28, another SGA election will take place
Many students will perhaps fail to vote using as their reason the
“powerlessness” of the SGA I would hope that all students could
unite and vote in this election to help make their SG
powerful and more viable. Several good candidates will be on the
ballot for the various offices. One of the most exceptional
candidates in my mind is Rick Atkinson. Rick, running for SGA
Vice-President, is an individual who is not only concerned about
students and their rights, he is an individual who has the
intelligence, the rationality, and the deep-down guts to work to
his utmost for the good of all students. | will consider ita

privilege to vote for Rick Atkinson on March 28. I sincerely hope
that all students will study each individual candidate and then

cast his vote accordingly

As members of an oppressed majority, we urge all women
students to cast their votes for the one Vice-Presidential
candidate who will be truly effective in eliminating the
repercussions of East Carolina's double-standard. We feel that
Rick Atkinson is not only capable of talking about problems, but
that he has the ideas, drive, and understanding to correct them.
We hope that all women will cast their votes for more than an

empty voice. Vote action!

from the root; as ...e: designed to remove the root of a disease or
all diseased tissue (-surgery) — compare conservative (from
“Webster's Third New International Dictionary,” unabridged)

It has been so long since | have made a public statement on
ANY issue that I may have some difficulty expressing my
thoughts on a subject which I feel should be addressed most
strongly, however, those of you who remember the name Bob
Thonen may feel what I have to say worth the extra effort.

Since late last spring 1 have maintained a moratorium on
public statements and overt actions. The reasons for this decision
included severe family sickness and financial as well as other
problems in addition to a general feeling on my part that one
individual is simply not capable of bringing about radical (<ce
above) change without a large amount of support

The emergance of the Students of Anarchists Principles
(S.0.AP.) has indicated to me that there is an unknown number
of students who seem to view the current student situation
similarly to the way that I do. From the $.0.A P. platform: “It is
time that students realize that the SGA is nothing but a puppet
government sanctioned by the Administration to be used for its
Purposes. It does not represent the student body; rather, it
becomes a buffer between the wishes of the students and the
ruling hierarchy, diverting attention away from the true source of
corruption, the administration. It'is quite simple. The SCA is
simply a lackey of Leo W. Jenkins and his cronies

The answer to this problem cited by $.0.A P. likewise reflects
the views that I hold: there is “..only one major issue in our
campaign. That is the complete abolishment of the present
Student Government Association, through its constitution.” And
fur “We propose that the constitution be abolished and an
entirely new one be drawn up by a delegation of concerned
students, elected at large from the student body specifically for
this purpose. The document would then be required to be ratified
by a 2/3 vote of the students voting.”

Such extensive surgery as this is only justified when all other
actions have heen tound to fail. For this rea

 

   

  

 

I bring to your
attention the occurances of last spring including such depressing
events as the total failure of visitation and the massive
administration attack on the campus newspaper. The resignation
of Glenn Crowshaw following the crushing, behind the scenes,
actions of the administration, the similar resignation of David
Edwards and the control the ad

 

dministration holds over the very

expect that an organization such as the SGA which is subject to
the approval of the university president can hope to accomplish
anything which is counter to the wishes of that same individual
Logic dictates that this is a poor weapon indeed to
the wishes of the students over those of Leo.

1 wish to address this letter to all students who consider
themselves open-minded and clear-thinking human beings

Of late, the cry on this campus has been, “Why are we living
in the past?” The Administration seems 1 be'teve that we are
lobotomized zombies who can't make inielligent and rational
decisions on onr own, The students’ tsk is to make this idea an
idea of the past. If we intend to make this institution into a true
university, we must elect someone who is strong-willed and
well-informed. The office of SGA President can no longer be a
vital office if it is “manned” by self-satisfied egotists

For those of you in the student body who want this university
art il SGA to become the progressive and well-organized body it

must, | urge you to THINK and THINK AGAIN on election day

After reading the presidential candidates’ views on the issues
on this campus, 1 was amazed at the lack of reality in the
majority of their opinions. What can the student body do about
the construction of the new student union when the land has
been purchased and the money appropriated, with the approval
of a previous Student Government? If the aim of candidates
seeking office is to completely undo what past Student
Governments have done, the end result will be chaos. What
guarantee do we have that the money would be rechannelled into
“more useful areas” if stopping construction were possible?

1 realize that appealing to the student body emotionally over
issues out of our control is good political tactics, but we are in
college now and should be responsible enough students to
demand representatives who are capable of cutting through this
garbage and accomplishing realistic ggals

Lee McLaughlin is capable of this. As a candadate for SGA.
President, 1 feel that she is the most competent and truly
concerned candidate running. When you vote today, consider the
issues and the proposed plans of action. Wouldn't a realistic

Rob Lusiana has received publicity for his Participation in
campus causes. | noticed that along with Lusiana two people
unknown to me for their contributions on campus are running
with him. This coalition makes you wonder about the courage
and self-esteem that the other two people may have. Whether true
or not it seems they are trying to ride Lusiana’s tale of fame into
office. This is similar to when Agnew an unknown ran on Nixon’s
tail. Of course, I'm not saying that these two people are as
qualified as Agnew (I mean unqualified) As has been stated in
the past, we need leaders, not yes men to the executive. Whether
this coalition suffers a lack of courage to stand on their own
without Lusiana s publicity isa matter for the people on campus
to decide. We need people who will stand by themselves, for what
they are and have done. Not people who w II stand in the shadow
of someone else’s ability and courage. I feel people should be
elected that have something to say and do, people who take a
stand on thei: own and who have the guts to back it

Since spring elections are here again, the voters on campus
should take time to look at the candidates,Each candidate's views
should be considered

Rob Luisana is a candidate for SGA President. He has been
active for more than two years working to help the students. He
was one of the leaders of last year’s boycott to gain visitation in
the dorms, among other student-onented activities. For most of

this year he has work wa a Jent voting nghts in
ile. He believes “tha

able to make dect sues th

   

Some of his ideas on issues are

CONSUMER PROTECTION: The SGA will publish a list of
available apartments and houses whose owners have in the past
treated students fairly

BOOKSTORE: The exorbitant prices of the Student Book
Store have been tolerated by students long enough. The SGA
should undertake the establishment of a co-operat _ hook store
tun by and for the students

STUDENT FEES: The spending of student fees should
become a primary issue. The building of a new Student Union is
ridiculous in view of the shortage of funds in other more Vital
areas

LAWYER AND BAIL FUND: “1 will see to it that the SGA
completes the final steps necessary to secure the services of a full
time lawyer, available to the student body. The Greenville
ministry has established a bail fund. | will try to make this fund
available to any student arrested downtown. *

OUT OF STATE TUITION: The drastic increase in tuition for
out of state students will be challenged in court

ENTERTAINMENT: Free concerts on the Mall every second
Sunday afternoon (weather-permitting) could be easily arranged
by using local bluegrass and rock groups.

“If elected President, { intend to make the SGA more than a
poll-taking service. 1 will work vigourously on issues and take
definitive stands on controversial matters.”

This is the person the student body needs as the SGA
President. Vote for Rob Luisana next Tuesday

Mark Browne is a candidate for SGA Treasurer and is
concerned, as is Rob Luisana, that the School of Art, School of
Music, and Drama Departments finally be recognized as real assets

to ECU and that priorities in university and student government
financing be changed to give the Fine Arts their deserved portion
If elected, both Rob and Mark will attempt
1. To divert at least 25% of the funds for athletic recruiting
for recruiting outstanding students for the Fine Arts programs.
2. To provide SGA funds to make it possible to get a
renowned musician in residence
3. To have the SGA finance a rock band of students selected
from the School of Music to perform at university functions for
the students at no cost to the students. 3
4. To convert the main building of the old heating plant into
an art studio and an area for buildin g or storing theater sets

the statistics to take in the message.

Kathy Holloman is running for SGA vice-president in
Tuesday's elections - one of the few women candidates for a
higher office in recent years. While Kathy is closely associated
with women’s rights, she is interested primarily in the rights of all
students of both sexes

Kathy has had more than adequate experience in student
government, having served on the SGA Legislature, on the WRC
Court and on a ni
As head of the Committee on the Status of Women, she has
attempted to investigate sex discrimination on campus, and has
encouraged women to take a more active part in student
vernment. In addition, she reorganized the WRC Court to fully
advise women of their legal rights prior to trial. Kathy has also
shown a strong interest in the welfare of the arts, and helped set
aside much needed funds for the arts on campus.

Those of us who have seen Kathy in action know more. We've
seen her at meetings, scrawling memos, camping out in the SGA
offices - and most often raising a little hell. Ata time when many
people regard an SGA office as merely an attractive brownie
point to tack on transcripts, Kathy Holloman offers an opposing
view - based on a fair amount of sweat and perserverance

The SGA ekctions are upon us once again. For some this is of
no consequence, for others, the candidates themselves, it is a time
of anticipation of the future. For those of us that are not
involved except by way of our vote, it should be a time of
reflection on the past and planning for the future

The SGA is an active force on campus and it should be
represented by dynamic leaders. The SGA does have a certain bit
of power (i.e. influence upon the administration) and it should be
represented by capable leaders. The SGA can not act impusively
or it will be stepped on (i. visitation last year) so it must be
represented by patient leaders. Naturally there are a great deal
more demands on the SGA also, which means that the leaders

must have various qualities to meet these demands.

Promises? What kind of promises? Especially consider this
because this will tell you what type of person that candidate is. If
a person makes rash promises which he will not be able to follow

As I am in the SGA legislature, | know just about all of the
candidates. Most of them would, in my opinion, be worthy office
holders. However, 1 believe that some would be better than
others. | have asked myself many questions conserning those
running and have formed my own opinions. Personally, for
president I prefer Tommy Clay, the present president. For VP. |
think the best prospect is Rick Atkinson (by the way, you can
vote for one member of a coalition without voting for the other
members), and for Secretary, | am for the write-in candidate,
Frieda Clark. For treasurer | am in favor of Tim Wehner, the only
candidate | am actively supporting

1 think that more so than the rest, these candidates would
work for the SGA, the school, and most importantly, the
students. These are only my opinions, but they are based on a
knowledge of all the candidates, not just promises.

No matter who you are supporting, please vote on Tuesday,
March 28, and no matter who wins the students must support
that person fully if we are to move forward in the future

Day Student Representative,

To Fountainhead

We, the undersigned, wish to express our strong support for
Tommy Clay, candidate for re-election as SGA President, We have
had the opportunity of working with Tommy and we feel that he
is the man for the job. He is the most experienced and best
qualified.

Tommy Clay is what East Carolina needs now. He is a calm,
forceful leader speaking out against the silence of apathy. He
knows what needs to be done and, more important, he knows
how to get things done. We support Tommy Clay for SGA
