Ombudsman committee chairmen were very often found to be making front page headlines in the SIGNPOST this past year. One of the leadership struggles that made front page occurred partially because of differing attitudes of former Ombudsman chairman, Brad Post, and Executive Council on the duties of the Ombudsman office. As a result of an afternoon's deliberation on Post's philosophy in carrying out his duties, Executive Council dismissed the Ombudsman chairman from his position on December 5, 1973. Gary Carter was given the Ombudsman chairmanship at the beginning of Winter Quarter and served until the end of Spring Quarter. The office of Ombudsman was a service that helped students solve their problems with the administration or the laws of the campus. Some of the actions taken by the Ombudsman office included: a review of the parking meter policy on campus and a negotiation of the question of 24-hour open house between dormitory students and the administration. WSC's ART GUILD tried to bring art to the attention of students and community by sponsoring art exhibits and sales. One of the projects carried out by Guild members during the week of December 3-7, featured the ceramics, sculptures, jewelry and paintings created by WSC students.
