BALL'S PILATFORM
The following is the platform of
presidential candidate M i c h a e I
Ball:
"Since I am not the typical can
didate-not the straight, y o u n g
frat or independent who was presi
dent of his high school class and
worked his way around various of
fices learning what one could or
could not do, I don't have the fear
of demanding the unexpected or
'unobtainable.'
"To the inevitable inquiry, 'You
don't seriously expect to win, do
you?' I can only say I offer the
student who is tired of seeing the
same people getting elected and
doing or rather not doing the same
things an alternative. For those
who feel student elections are a
joke, I am the punchline."
KNOBEL'S PIATFORM
The following is the platform of
presidential candidate Barry
Knobel:
"As I have continually stressed,
student activism, supported by a
unified student effort, will be able
to realize major gains in the com
ing year. The student body presi
dent's role is to assume the leader
ship for the directions in the ac
complishments of student demands.
If I am fortunate in this coming
election, I wish to instigate the fol
lowing programs:
1) Placing the taking of all final
examinations on an optional (or
voluntary) basis.
2) A curriculum revision pro
gram.
3) A student government execu
tive reorganization.
"I will further attempt to solve
or alleviate the already existing
problems:
1) Student parking
2) Student t i c k e t distribution

3) Consumption of alcoholic bev
erages on University property
"One must realize that the ma
jority of student problems develop
during the academic year. These
problems must be met and solved
quickly and efficiently by the stu
dent body president and his staff.
'Promising the world' by an over
extension of campaign platform
ideas, in order to please every sec
tion of student representation, is
unwise and extremely unfair to the
student.
"This coming year will be the
'year of practicality'-the 'year of
the student'. Give me that chance
to prove it."
KROCIIMALNY'S PLATFORM
The following is the platform of
presidential candidate Mike Kroch
malny:
"The major responsibility of the
president of the student body is im
plementing the ideas of the student
body; to do this he must have inti.
mate knowledge not only of stu
(lent ideas, but the administrators
he must work with.
"I feel that my work with cam
pus publications and organizations
has given me the necessary knowl.
edge of student thoughts and the
personalities of the administration
to achieve what must be (lone to
provide students with a voice in
academic and social areas which
are so important to them while
they are at the University.
"I think an effective and active
s t u d e n t government can relieve
much of the tension on this campus
and provide an effective means of
dealing with the many problems
which face students and citizens
in this state.
"The first step toward making
student government effective is to
provide that student senate is a
viable institution and to make the
best use of presidential appoint
ments and the cabinet, choosing
people on the basis of ability and
interest, not friendship or affilia
tion.
