Capitol Campus citizens have been hearing strange
rumblings within the walls of dear old PSU recently. Here
as well as everywhere else in the United States, some of the
students have come down with “campaignitis.” Through
the effort of several students, the Young Democrats Club is
back in operation, and is supporting Jimmy Carter for
president.
Student Coordinator Deb Koller Hoffman tells about the
organization: “Across the nation we have seen a strong
relaxation of citizen, and particularly student, participation
in politics and government. There are many reasons for this
apathy--the end of the Vietnam War left students without
the cause that had provided them with reason for protest,
the Watergate Era created a basic distrust with the
preoccupation now toward gainful employment and what
lies beyond graduation.”
Hoffman goes on to say, “Election 76 is giving us
another chance to ignite that spark of citizen participation
and concern that our sisters and brothers left for us to carry
on. That’s why we’re organizing the “Students for Carter
Committee.” We care about the future of the United States
and we care about the people who live here.
The 76 election should prove to be most important in
the history of this country. As we embark on the beginning
of our third century, we’d like to see a man in the White
House who represents not the bureaucrats and interests of
Washington, but of the whole country.
Jimmy Carter is that man. Jimmy has pure and fresh
ideas—ideas that will help sustain the Democracy and
American Spirit that have made the United States what it is
today and will make it even better tomorrow.
I urge everyone to get involved and support the
candidate of his or her choice. We hope your choice will be
Jimmy Carter, former governor of Georgia.
Carter has already proven that he can win. He has won
primaries in: New Hampshire, Florida, North Carolina,
Vermont, Illinois and Wisconsin.
On April 27, we believe he is going to win in
Pennsylvania. We at "Students for Carter,” are asking for
your help. Vote for Carter on April 27.
If you’re not registered yet, register and make sure you
can vote in the general election In November. Come out
now and help. Go with a winner! When Carter wins, we wilt
win, too!
For information on issues, Carter, or how you can help,

Ask Otto
v* I
Hello college students, Otto has returned.
Ever since I started writing for The C.C. Reader, I’ve
overheard nothing but lots of mean talk about the job I’ve
been doing.
People constantly ask me what I’m doing here, and when
I tell them I am a serious problem solver in the style of “Dear
Abby,” they fait out laughing. iLaugh, laugh, laugh. That’s
all they do. Why, some just giggle, but a few even pee in
their pants. They seem to think that Otto is a ioke. They
think only degenerates and teenagers jwrite to me. And, to
top it all off The C.C. Reader staff has kicked me in the butt
so many times over this that I think this is a feather up their
aspidistra!
Well, ha-ha and a swift kick to them, too. They don’t
understand that you have to be sympathetic enough, like
me, to even attempt to answer the letters I receive. (And
some of them are pretty bad!) Shit (excuse my language, but
I’m mad), most of the people around here can’t read anyway.
Oh, by the way, some have said that Otto never reads
newspapers. They’ve even gone so far as to say that I
wouldn’t recognize a good news story If someone placed it in
front of me. Ha! That shows how much you know about
Otto.
Of course I read newspapers. And here is a sampling of
the kind of story your Otto reads.
“Mrs. Horace Peace received slight Injuries when her
husband shot her with a shotgun. At first, Mrs. Peace would
not cooperate with investigating deputies, and she also
refused to go to the hospital for treatment. Later, Mrs. Peace
went to the authorities and explained that her husband was
hunting and ‘thought I was a rabbit so he shot me ’ ’’
(Henderson (N.C.) Dispatch)
New rules for drop-adds

days of the term in accordance with
procedures of the student's college or

Beginning with the 22rid day and
ending on the last day of the eighth
week, a student may, in accordance
with procedures of the student's college
or the Division of Undergraduate Studies,
drop a course, but a WP (Passing) or WF
