SGA begins look at summer internship programby Brian NiepokySGA Historian

On Tuesday March 16, SenatorJeff Wrana and Vice PresidentRob Wallace presented a proposalbefore the student Senate to lookinto the possibility of bringing asummer internship program toRose-Hulman. The Senate over-whelming passed the resolution,realizing that Rose-Hulman doesneed to establish some type ofsummer internship program.The idea first started after

hearing several Seniors complainthat they couldn't find a job be-

cause they had no experience. Atthe same time, underclassmenwere complaining that theycouldn't find any summer work inthe field of science and engineer-ing.The resolution calls for the es-

tablishment of an independentcommittee to contact otherschools, administration, and thebusiness community to in-vestigate the feasibility of such aprogram. The committee,chaired by Senator Wrana, willme made up of approximately tenstudents from both the student

Senate and the student body. Thecommittee also hopes to pick up afew faculty members to serve onthe committee.The committee will present a

preliminary report on its findingson the May 4th Senate meeting. Atthat time, the Senate will considerthe report and decide on anyfurther action.The committee is currently

looking for additional members.If you are interested, whether fac-ulty or student, please contact theSGA office, extension 8446 orthrough SGA box 172.

Opinion

Letter to the EditorNote from the Editor: This let-

ter by two Rose students detailssome of the bad experienceswhich they have had with theirlandlord. While this particularcase is hopefully the exceptionrather than the rule, we hope thatit makes clear the fact that thereare landlords out there in TerreHaute of whom we need be wary.

To the Rose-Hulman StudentBody:

I am a senior living off campus.The house in which I live is rea-sonably acceptable for a Rose stu-dent. It is conveniently located at3025 Schaal Ave., about threemiles from campus. Its location,however, is the only benefit of thishouse. The foundation has eroded,leaving no level floor surface inthe house. The sump pump in thebasement runs often to compen-sate for the leaky basement. Thewiring is substandard and a firehazard. The appliances are oldand at times non-functional. Theexterior paint is faded and peel-ing.

All of these inadequacies couldbe overlooked, and often were. Totop it all off though, the landlordperceives that her tenants rentfrom her for exclusive rights toimprove the house. She told myhousemates and me that shewould provide the paint if wewanted to paint the house (forfree). She also informed us that ifwe wished to wrestle out the rot-

Letter to the Editorten cores of two water heaterswhich were in the basement, shewould find some way of disposingof them.Aside from the living condi-

tions, the landlord is deceptive inher practices. When she is show-ing the house to prospective rent-ers, she underestimates the aver-age utility costs. She has on oneoccasion hidden our posted gasand electric bills, so that the pro-spective tenants would not seethem. She also lied about servicesshe would provide for the house.She told us that the carpets wouldbe cleaned before we took resi-dence. They were not. She saidthat the linoleum floors in thekitchen and bathroom would beswept and mopped. They werenot. In the lease it was written thatthe first month's light bulbs wouldbe furnished. She refused tosupply a fluorescent tube for thebathroom because "...we don'tuse that light any more."As if being deceptive were not

enough, our landlord is frequentlyunprofessional. Within one monthof our residency, she had per-sonally insulted each one of us.She called Bill O'Connell a Bitch-er, because he called to inquireabout the carpets that were notcleaned. She said that BrianGoodman was crazy for sleepingunder the loft which he had built.She told Chris Vana that his roomwas a mess and that his mothermust be glad that he had movedout. She also said to his face that

even though he has the looks, hewill never have a girlfriend be-cause his bad attitude would al-ways scare the women away. Shesaid to Bill that I was stupid forbeing engaged. This all happenedwithin the first month of occupan-cy. To add to this unprofessionalclaim, in a recent privacy dispute,she resorted to name calling.Among other things, she calledme a "baby" numerous times,and told me that my parents did aterrible job of raising me. She alsosaid that a certain administrativefigure at Rose-Hulman, withwhom she claimed to be goodfriends, was shocked at what I haddone. In talking with this adminis-trative figure, I was told that ourlandlord was not in good standingwith this individual, nor had shebeen for quite a long time. Thisadministrative figure was not

even aware of the dispute betweenher and I.

Lastly, and most offensively,our landlord does not respect therights of her tenants. She does notrealize that she cannot enter thehouse whenever she wants. Thatsame administrative figure,whose name she had dropped, in-formed me that there have beenproblems in the past with her"keying-in" whenever she wants.This is blatantly NOT LEGAL. Inthe lease a line reads, "The lessorhas the right to show house for re-rent." She has vocalized that thisline entitles her or her husband toenter the house at any time with-out prior notice. I have not been toa law library yet to verify the In-diana statutes, but in Michigan, alandlord must give at least 24hours notice before showing the

house for rent. On more than oneoccasion, the landlord has givenless than four hours notice, onetime only giving thirty minutesnotice. Though I do not yet havethe legal backing, I feel as thoughmy rights as a tenant have beenviolated. As mentioned before,she also shows the house while notenants are present, entering thehouse earlier to rearrange papersshowing the amount of rent paidand the current utility costs.

the jurors also had not seen thetape.He must have either been in a

coma for the past two years orhave been a student at an op-pressive institute of technology.The fact that everybody had

seen the tape, however, had theresult that everyone had a judg-ment on the police officers.Everyone knew they were guilty.Even I, from written newspaperdescriptions of the videocassette,knew they were guilty. Then camethe verdict that said otherwise.

I felt betrayed.Not by the courts, nor by the ju-

rors, but by the mediaThe verdict came as such a total

shock because viewers of the net-works had been led to believe thatthe case was open-shut, that therewas absolutely no question ofguilt.The whole country can not sit in

on a court case as a body of judg-ing peers. That is why we leavethe decision of guilt to a group ofjurors, picked cooperatively byboth prosecution and defense fortheir objectivity. This bodyrepresents a microcosm of our ra-tional thinkers. This body is ex-posed to all the relevant informa-tion so it can make an well-informed decision.The public is not.Therefore, when the verdict

was pronounced, I thought,"Interesting. There must havebeen more of the tape, more in-formation and testimony that Iwas not exposed to, upon whichthese rational people came to con-clusion."

Unfortunately, others did notthink along these lines.The case of Rodney King was

never meant to be a test case. Itwas not designed to determinewhether L.A. police as a ruleabuse blacks, nor did its verdictstate that this was not the case.This was a trial of one particularman, four particular officers, andone incident.The citizens of L.A. were not

present at the incident, nor pres-ent at the trial which tried to re-create it. Yet they still felt as ifthey had the power to judge thecase on the basis of what theyknew. And they were so ardent intheir belief, that they denied theresults of the trial. They assumedthat the jurors were eithersecretly conspiring with the KKK,

that they were legally blind, orjust all on drugs. And that's whatthey will continue to assume if thepresent trial ends likewise.When I was young, I once, under

severe provocation, pushed myyounger brother lightly. He exag-gerated his response, fallingmelodramatically on the floor. Onhis way down he hit his head."Dad," he cried. "Kevin

pushed me."The Judge stepped onto the

scene. "Did you push him?" Dadasked.I tried to answer without

responding unequivocally."Yes or No," mandated Father."Yes," I responded.Upon that limited information

Dad convicted me. It was truethat I was guilty of pushing mybrother, but had Dad seen more ofthe evidence, he may not havebeen so hasty in his decision.This is what the court is meant

to prevent. It does not do a perfectjob of this, but is the fairest solu-tion we have found to date. To as-sume that the jurors, our peers,with their repository of informa-tion, erred, whereas we, with ourlimited biases, are just, is tocompletely undermine the con-cept of due process.In no American court is the ac-

cused assumed guilty before thetrial begins. It is unfortunate thatthis principle does not reign in oursociety. Morton Greenberg, anappellate judge, expresses itwell: "It will be a sad day for thiscountry when criminal cases raredecided in accordance with publicopinion shared by media exposurerather than by a jury on the basisof the evidence before it." I con-cur.There is no reason to believe

that the federal trial, a maneuverthat smells strongly of doublejeopardy, will result in a differentjudgment than the first. How canit, when the criteria for convictionare even stronger? Whatever thejudgment, I will accept the deci-sion of the jury of peers.My own judgment I will reserve

until I read the court notes. I hopeeveryone else will do the same.

ICAC baseball starts SaturdayThe Engineers finally have

some good weather to play in thisweekend. It would be advanta-geous if they are able to play theirseason opener against HanoverSaturday at Rose's home Art NehfField. The Engineers have hadseveral games cancelled latelydue to inclement weather.Roose continued its streak on

Wednesday, lifting their perfectrecord up to nine wins this season.They took Wabash in both games,5-2 and 10-0, on the turf at Syca-more Field.Rose kept up its exceptional

moundwork in the double-header.Shawn Brainard added anotherwin to his perfect record, and re-

tained his 0.00 earned run aver-age. In the second game againstthe Little Giants he pitched ninestrikeouts in just five innings. TimWatson had six strikeouts in thefirst game to improve his recordto 2-0. Senior Eric Mihal is tempo-rarily inactive due to a shoulderinjury.Offensively, the Engineers havebeen more than productiveenough to stay on top. Going intothe Wabash games there werenine batters with averages over.300. Junior Brandon Hollis was aperfect 4-for-4 in the first game onWednesday. The team had ten hitsin the game, though only five bat-ters made it across home plate.

The second game of the series fea-tured ten runs on eleven hits.The Engineers can expect a lit-

tle more competition from Hanov-er College tomorrow though. Lastyear Rose finished the season atthird place in the ICAC, right be-hind Hanover. According toCoach Jeff Jenkins. the team isn'tinvincible. The 9-0 start is great,but it's a long season and we'renot satisfied yet. If we play de-fense like we did in the first gameagainst Hanover on Saturday,we'll find ourselves 9-1 real fast."For those who can't make it to

Art Nehf Field on Saturday, theycan tune into the action onWMHD, starting at 1 p.m.

Problem 1 (proposed by Y. Shibberu)

Consider two 100 gallon tanks of water connected together by twopipes. Water is continually circulated between the tanks at 100gallons per hour. Salt is added to each tank. The differentialequations which model the amount of salt in each tank are

= —1 1 +12

2'2 = - 12

where 11 is the amount of salt in tank A and 12 is the amount ofsalt in tank B. Assume that at t = 0, 10 lbs of salt is added to tankA. What is the minimum amount of salt that must be added totank B at t = 0 in order to prevent the amount of salt in tank Afrom falling below 8 lbs before I = 30 minutes?
