Positions filled
A President’s Advisory Council vacan
cy and eight of 10 new hearings officer
positions of the ASUO Constitution Court
have been filled.
ASUO Pres. Mary Hotchkiss has ap
pointed Kasey Brooks, a sophomore ma
joring in international studies, to replace
former member Gary Okazaki. Okazaki,
one of two students elected to the newly
created council, resigned the post to
become ASUO coordinator of University
affairs.
Brooks was appointed so the represen
tative would be student-elected, Hotch
kiss says. Brooks finished third in the
council race.
The ASUO Constitution Court has
selected Al Steinhaus, a business junior;
Clark Pontier, a business junior; Grant
Hanson, a second-year law student; Joe
Hollander, a second-year law student;
Richard Burr, a journalism and political
science senior; David Funk, a psychology
junior; John Heldt, a political science
junior; and Brad Bosomworth, a
marketing junior; to be hearings officers.
Officers are designated by the court in
cases dealing with fact finding rather
than an interpretive issue.
Lecture studies
ancient climates
Methods of determining prehistoric
climates from tree rings will be explored in a
free public lecture at 8:15 p.m. Monday in Room
107 Lawrence.
Samuel Epstein, a professor of
geochemistry at the California Institute of
Technology in Pasadena, will discuss his re
cent work with stable isotopes of hydrogen in
tree rings.
Epstein will also hold informal technical
discussions on Tuesday in the Geology
Building Lounge, Room 45. Isotopes in organic
matter will be discussed in the morning ses
sion, which will begin at 9:30 a.m., while the
afternoon session beginning at 2 p.m. will
focus on studies of stable isotopes in
meteorites and minerals.
Born in Poland and raised in Canada, Eps
tein came to this country in 1948 and has done
research at Cal Tech since 1952. He is a
member of the National Academy of Science.
Epstein has been instrumental in develop
ing a way to determine the temperature of an
cient oceans. Working with Heinz Lowenstam
of Cal Tech, he applied the technique to the
study of oxygen isotopes in fossil shells.
The visit is sponsored by the geology
department’s Condon Club.
