College and Engineering students go to
the polls Wednesday and Thursday,
December 9 and 10 to select
representatives for the Student Council
and Judiciary Committee. Students will
be given the opportunity to vote between
9 a.m. and 5 p.m. at approximately 24
polling locations about the grounds.

Candidates from the College seeking
one of the three seats to be filled on the
Student Council include: Scott Stephens,
Mark Warner, and Robert Voyles, all of
the Jefferson Party. Ham Lob, Willie Ivey, and
Bob Levin are also seeking these positions from
the Virginia Progressive Party.

Seeking the position of Council
representative from the Engineering School are
Gregory Compton, Theta Tau; Jim Rinaca,
Trigon Society; Tom Saunders, New
Engineering Party; and Mike Monahan, BFD.

Three positions from the College and one
from the Engineering School are also to be
filled on the Judiciary Committee. Candidates
from the College include Brian Siegel, Fred
Johnson, and Tom Goss of the VPP. Those
students running from the JP are Bill Garner,
Dave Llewellyn, and Bill McSherry.

Candidates from the Engineering School
include Tom McIntosh and Steve Zoukis, BFD;
John Ring and John Heisler, Theta Tau; Jim
Wansley and Andy Hook, Trigon Society; and
John NEP.

Michael Monahan

As a candidate for Student Council
representative from the E-School on the B.F.D.
party ticket, I wish to make this statement.

Our campaign of fear and hate is sincere in
so far as all politics are ridiculous. Trigon,
Theta Tau, and now the N.E.P., are all a
comical, crass, incompetent compilation of
compromising compost. Our only purpose in
running is not to get caught. So, B.F.D.

Ham Lob

I find political rhetoric empty and political
intrigue boring; and consequently this campaign
has been nothing short of dreadful. Why then
become involved with Student Council? Because
of the essential problem facing the University
growth and the retention during growth of the
quality which raises this University above the
rest of the muck of "higher education" -

requires supra-political answers. For the past
couple of years, we've been fighting our
political differences with the University as the
battlefield; now, we (both Charlottesville and
Richmond) must suspend ideological warfare at
least long enough to insure that the University
can limp through the next few years without
being penalized for lack of foresight. It will
take energy, maybe more than we've got; but
we must at least make the effort.

Mark Warner

Student Council should give first priority to
working with administrators and faculty to
effect solutions to problems relevant to the
University community. I feel the present
Student Council has taken great steps in this
direction, although some Council members at
times have allowed their political ideologies to
take priority over University affairs, I would
like to see Student Council redirect some of the
time it has spent on problems outside the state,
and concern itself almost entirely with the
University of Virginia.

Jim Rinaca

I feel that it is the responsibility of this
university to provide the highest quality
education possible for all its students.
Therefore, I feel that before present enrollment

can be expanded, Virginia must take
meaningful strides to overcome problems of
traffic, parking, and the provision of
"meaningful" housing for all those who desire
such.

If elected, I would also strive to have the
Engineering Council modified by the addition
of elected members representing the student
body at large.

Greg Compton

In talking to students during my campaign I
am encouraging an exchange of ideas. Not only
do I discuss issues that interest me; I also seek
the responses of students.

Student Council, in leading student opinion,
should act as the agency to collect, channel and
circulate ideas and information. Provisions
should be made to foster greater diversity in the
inputs to the system. Too often good ideas are
never heard in the right places. If Council
representatives would make themselves more
accessible, much could be done to remedy the
situation. I want to actively engage myself with
the concerns of the students, but can do so
only with your support.
