mt $ilat DgR3 Gardner-Webb College—Home of the Bulldogs FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19,1973 BOILING SPRINGS, NORTH CAROLINA President’s Column With the hectic schedule of a stu dent body president I sometimes overlook the good things that moti vate me and keep my morale up. For our office has been unmerci fully let down by numerous stu dents when we asked them to serve and when we desperately needed assistance. With the election of student class officers and senators our office was once again bogged down with the tedious task of vote counting. Many jobs in student government go unnoticed and vote counting is definitely one of them. Students as students usually do, came to the rescue. Randy Jones, Mark Walker, Russ Hoene and Tom HUl volunteered themselves and sacri ficed an evening to student govern ment. They did not have to, in fact none are members of any executive committee of student government. They helped because they are just great guys and wanted to lend a helping hand. This type is what keeps Gardner-Webb student gov ernment alive. These men are straight shooters. They are not two faced and they do not hide behind false images. They are sincere and they tell the truth. They know how to enjoy life. If Gardner-Webb was supplied each year with geiitlemen of this caliber, our student government would be a driving force on this campus. These are the type men that our office is looking for, and for what it is worth we sincerely ap preciate their efforts. From the office of the President, I thank them for just being them selves.

The Senate of Gardner-Webb College has met three times thus far this year, with Steve White, vice president of the SGA, presid ing.

These students are in the Senate to serve and represent the school at Each time the Senate meets, all students are invited to attend. This is a good way for the student body. or at least those who are concerned, to find out what is going on around the campus as far as governmental There is hope that many things can be changed or at least im proved by the Senate. But they need full cooperation and under standing from the student body. As editor of the Pilot, I see and hear a great many complaints con cerning what is being done about this particular item or that specific code. . . As college students, we should be mature enough to know that before we speak, know all the facts. Get all you can concerning your subject; make sure that what Anyone In Trouble? TeU It Like It Is, Julian The campus code is the official code of conduct adopted by Gard ner-Webb students and trustees. The code prohibits dishonesty, theft, immodity, drinking or pos session of alcoholic beverages, use or possession of drugs, hazing, un kempt appearance and failure to follow official dress code, rioting, insubordinate behavior, and pos session or use of firearms. Violations of the campus code re sult in disciplinary action and can subject a student to suspension. The student judicial body has the original jurisdiction over all cases involving infraction of the rules and regulations passed by the stu dent Senate and over interpre tations of the SGA Constitution and by-laws. Most important of aU, the judicial body will render deci sions concerning campus code vio lations. The chief justice, J. C. Cole was elected as an executive officer by a student body vote and SGA Presi dent Jeff McNeill appointed the eight justices. Serving this year: Joyce Smith, Randy Jones, Nancy Barlow, Valerie Dupont, Sam Miller, Ron Wood, Chuck Scoville, Larry Diaz.

The notice must also give the names of the witnesses who will testify against him and the facts to which each witness testifies. Also, a student must be informed orally or in writing of his pro cedural rights as set forth in the Bylaws of the Constitution. This explanation must be given before any consideration of waiver hear- , ing or of issuing formal charges. All students have the right to be represented by counsel of his choice, and if the defendant does not wish to defend himself the ju dicial body involved shall appoint a defense counsel. After the due process of law is followed the violation so campus regulations is subject to certain sanctions.
