VOL. 25, NO. 16

PCC Presents
First Party:
Campus Unity
By Marshall Armistead
Out of the humdrum of campus
politics, a political party has
emerged, setting a new and un¬
usual precedent at PCC.
Created with the idea that a
group with similar views can
bring student government closer
to the students, the Campus Unity
Party is supporting candidates for
almost every major office.
With the formation of a plat¬
form comprising seven major is¬
sues and proposals, CUP would
like to see a conversation center
where a table would be set up to
disseminate information about the
organizations and issues on cam¬
pus.
ALSO proposed is a poll to gauge
student opinion on the require¬
ment of ASB cards for voting,
and to provide more open forums
involving not only government but
student-faculty discussions a s
well.
Leading the slate of candidates
is Doug Phillips for ASB presi¬
dent, with Paul Nesbitt running
for Senate president; John Bo-
hart, Spphomore president; Terry
Moore, Freshman president; Ran¬
dy Van Dolson for AMS president,
and Linda Pearce, for AWS pres-
dent.
ALTHOUGH THE candidates
are running as a group, their
names will appear separately on
the ballot following their prospec¬
tive offices. “CUP is trying to be
an answer to the Courier’s edi¬
torial about the need for new
faces and new ideas to make PCC
and its government a ‘Total Real¬
ity’,” says Phillips.
As campus elections drew
closer, some candidates changed
their minds. At the ASB assembly
last Thursday, Scott Ousdahl
made a fiery denunciation of the
CUP, as he withdrew as a candi¬
date for ASB president.
An hour earlier at the ASB
Board meeting, Joan Nick was
re-admitted to the ballot for Sen¬
ate president by voice vote.

The film has been described by
critics as “a delightful satire,”

manners.”
ASB Prexy Candidate
Doug Phillips
The time of waiting is past. The time of decision is upon us.
PCC is now at the crossroads. Slogans will not do. Pleasant plati¬
tudes will no longer suffice. You the people have said you want
action. Many like-minded individuals have grouped to the Campus
Unity Party standard.
As party head, I’ve dedicated myself to working for the “total¬
ity of the junior college reality.” That totality can only be realized
by a unified ASB government. No one man can do it alone.
Your support of me for ASB president is a pledge to a set of
ideals that can mean only progress for PCC. I will coordinate and
see that our campaign promises become campus reality.
Price Alone

ASB Prexy Candidate
Lee Rosen
The ASB government of PCC must be flexible and mold itself
to the needs and demands of the students. The activities program
and participation in college events must be strengthened through
the channels of communication of the Senate, the 71 clubs, and the
various departmental organizations.
It is by creating strong bonds of communication with one an¬
other that they can become increasingly effective. This communi¬
cation must be in two directions — from you, directed to help the
organizations provide activities that you prefer, as well as from
these organizations to help you find out exactly when and where
these varied activities are being offered. The student must initiate
changes in the student body organization.
Our job is to enact these changes and provide some opportunity
for each student. We have the basic framework and can structure
the internal operations of the government according to what the
student wants.
If elected to the office of vice-
president of the ASB, I hope to
establish a stronger cabinet with
more legislative authority, a more
meaningful open house that in¬
terests all students, a program
for athletics that will curtail stu¬
dent apathy, and a unified pro¬
gram for student body officers
that will be helpful for better
leadership. I know that I am a
student working for students and
nothing more.

I will strive to secure wider
representation of the male stu¬
dents on the AMS board, thus cre¬
ating a channel of communica¬
tion between the board and the
students. In this way, the board
can more ably represent the in¬
terests of the men on campus.
Thus the “totality of the junior
college reality” may be realized.
I would like your support!
CSLA Extends Deadline
California State College at Los
Angeles has liberalized the dead¬
line for the spring semester to
January 16, PCC’s office of
guidance and counseling re¬
ports.
PAUL NESBITT
My primary objective is to
make PCC more meaningful to
you, its students. I hope to ac¬
complish this by identifying and
solving your problems through the
Senate.
As its president, I will strive to
recognize its full potential as the
best means through which to de¬
velop a better understanding and
working relationship between you
and your government.
The Senate must be the voice
of the people. As Senate president
I will seek to motivate a now
lethargic group. Meaningful polls
and decisive action will be t h e
hallmark of my administration.
Unity in the Senate, unity of idea
and action in response to student
wishes.
It’s time for a change. I don’t
stand alone in my desire to make
PCC a truly collegiate institution.
The “totality of the junior college
reality” must be realized. If elect¬
ed, I will serve the Senate, the
people, and the Campus Unity
Party. This is my promise and I
need your pledge of support.
