A new yearbook committee seeks the return of Hi O Hi with Freshman Lena Cowen leading a potential staff. They propose gauging student interest before requesting the $1600 allocation, following a referendum last May that abolished the yearbook and redirected funds.
Senate treasurer Charles Woods announced hearings will run Monday through Wednesday next week to consider financial requests from campus organizations. Fifteen groups had met the prior deadline, including Cinema Arts, ACLU, Planned Parenthood, and Zionist Alliance.
The scene centers on a yearbook funding referendum at the high school. Organizers Cowen and Litmann seek an impartial vote on using 11 000 from student activity fees and town funds to publish a blended yearbook with photography and commentary. A possible reinstate ment hinges on public support and a new referendum.
The Student Senate Finance Committee reviews a proposal to allocate up to 10 percent of activity fees from the Student Activities Fund to dormitories including language houses and coops. Funds would be distributed from a Senate Project Account, roughly $5,000 total, with about $4 per student for the academic year, while most money remains in the Dormitory Fund for dorm-specific needs and end-of-year carryover.
An explosion damaged a vending machine area at Barnard House last Saturday night. Walter Hopewell said officials will not release details as investigations continue. Miss Doris Morton and seniors Fim Cantsck and Dick Baker reported the scene around 10 pm with minimal damage beyond a burned pan and scorched machine parts. Possible motives range from theft to revenge, with Walter Hopewell noting a chemical analysis was performed but results are undisclosed.
Freshman Neal Haber led a dispute on whether Oberlin should hold a Mock Convention mirroring U S presidential nominating processes. Proposals favored educational value and state and national politics insight, while opponents urged focus on broader social change and mass movements. Senate discussed a referendum to gauge student sentiment and decide the issue after spring break.
