    Court Sanctions Two
In Plagiarism Cases
Ily 4A«I THOMPSON
StalT Writer
Student Court Kunctioned two
students for plagiarism, and up
held a Student Truffle Court sanc
tion in three unconnected cases
Thursday. The Court also elected
a new chuirman, Robert 1,. Mil
ler, a second year law student.
In the first case a freshman,
who will he 21 in May, was
charged with violating Section
lit 2a of the Student Conduct
Code in that parts of a term
paper he submitted in Writing
122 last term were plagiarized
from a hook.
He pleaded guilty to the charge,
then apologized to the Court and
the University for his conduct.
His counsel stated their faitli in
tin- defendant and pointed out
he has had no previous Code vio
lations.
The Court sanctioned him to
disciplinary probation until the
end of next full term, and re
quired that he rewrite the paper
to the satisfaction of his instruc
tor
The second case was a closed
hearing. The violation was tin
same, that the defendant had
plagiarized in a psychology lab
term paper by using parts of an
other student's pa|H»r The de
fendant, a sophomore, pleaded
guilty and was placed on disci
plinary probation until the end of
next fall term
The ttiird case was an appeal
on a sanction imposed by Traffic
Court. The Court found th<- de
fendant guilty and upheld the
decision of Traffic Court
The defendant, a junior, had
been charged with violation of
Permits Section 5 of University
parking regulations, in that his
car displayed a stalT parking
sticker to which he was not c-n
titled. He had also been delin
fluent in paying for three cita
lions for parking after hours at
Cate ft of Hayward Field, a stu
dent parking area. Three eita
lions, live during fall term, are
enough to classify a person as
being "habitual ”
Hu wan flncd $10 for fuiling to
I pay the three $2 citations. He
| petitioned to have his case re
i viewed in Traffic Court to protest
the $10 fine. (This is a function
I of Traffic Court, to allow a stu
dent to appeal for a waiver of a
! fine or punishment he feels is
| unjust.)
His petition was accepted, but
as a result of the hearing, not
only did he still have the $10 fine
to pay, but he was also sanc
tioned by Traffic Court. He was
placed on disciplinary probation
for the remainder of this term,
and his driving privileges were
revoked until May 15, for misuse
of the staff parking sticker.
The main point of counsel was
that Traffic Court had overstepped
its authority in imposing a sane
1 lion in addition to the $10 fine.
They also questioned if Section 5
tiad really been violated as was
charged, since it couldn’t be prov
ed that the defendant had put the
staff sticker on his car or had
taken advantage of it and parked
where students' cars aren't al
lowed.
Counsel felt if the defendant
had paid the $2 tickets, anil not
decided to use his right to peti
tion to Traffic Court to have the
fine removed, he would never
have been sanctioned. They felt
Traffic Court was wrong in im
posing a sanction as well as keep
ing the $10 fine, which they said
“tripled” the punishment. This
defeats the purpose of Traffic
Court as a place for students to
petition for line waivers, counsel
said If Traffic Court imposes
worse punishment on students
who petition to it, no student
will want to petition, even though
it is his right to do so
They didn’t question the $10
fine for the parking violations,
but did question the additional
punishment, and the right of Traf
fic Court to impose a sanction for
a Section 5 offense, if the offense
had really been committed.

Hansell
(Continued from pane 1)
the philosophy of the Code which
prohibits "double jeopardy," that
is, that a student tried for an
offense in civil courts cannot be
tried under the Code.
Solve Problem of Apathy
They said their proposal for
student political parties would
solve the problem of student
apathy, which Hansell said has
been an issue “since I have
been on the campus.”
They proposed dividing the up
perclass dormitories, Greek hous
es, and co-ops into two political
parties arbitrarily. Freshman dor
mitory residents and off campus
students would be allowed to
choose their party Donahue said
the parties would start with
“blank ideologies” and would de
velop ideologies later.
Several students in the crowd
of 70, including present ASUO
President Steve Goldschmidt, ask
ed why it wouldn't be better to
start with ideologies.
Donahue argued that the par
ties would develop ideologies but
that was not the way to start.
"If you do it that way, you’d
just have the Greeks against the
oil-campus students that you have
now," Donahue said.
Qualified for Position
Both candidates also cited their
experience. Donahue admitted
that Mansell's opponent, Senate
Public Adairs Committee Chair
man Henry Drummonds, was
"one of the finest legislators we
have ever had on this campus,”
but he argued that Mansell's exec
utive experience as junior class
president and in other offices
made him better qualified for an
executive position, such as stu
dent body president.
"The abilities required of those
offices are the same as for stu
dent body president," Donahue
said.
Hansell and Donahue said they
planned to return to the Free
Speech Platform later to discuss
other aspects of their platform,
including lobbying with the leg
islature, an oir campus opportu
nity program, and others.
Drummonds said Thursday that
his challenge Wednesday to Man
sell and John Itessler, the other
presidential candidate, was for
a debate at the Free Speech Plat
form, not on Private Line Three.
Mansell replied Wednesday that
the challenge was "meaningless,''
since PL-3 was already setting
up a debate.
That debate is planned for May
6, after the primary election.
