According lo Dean of Students David Bell, no students have been referred to his office for disciplinary action, concerning shoplifting from Ihe bookstore this school year. This is in marked contrast to a couple of years ago when Bell said there waa, "a real rash" of students referred to him. He said his office handled about 30 students involved in shoplifting during that lime. The dean of students Is notified in all instances of theft on campus by studenta, according to Lt. Virgil Cope, acting chief of campus security. And. Dean Bell said the. strongest action his office takes against student shoplifters is expulsion from the university. But, he said, expulsion la. the extreme, and a atudent il more likely to be put on probation. Although Bookstore Manager Lawrence Taylor said he does not believe the bookstore bat a serious shoplifting problem, he aaid be would like to aee ttlffer action taken against itudent shoplifters. "The De*n of Students Just slspa their hands, and that's lt," he said. But, Lt. Cope aaid, officers could file a complaint against the student with the District At¬ torney's office plus notify the dean, depending on the in¬ dividual circumstances. And the District Attorney could issue a warrant for the student's arrest Despite the fact that the number of apprehended atudenta haa dropped, Taylor said tbe bookstore had a high unlocated difference between dollars taken ln, and the Inventory according to sales, at the end of last year. He said the difference last year waa about 820,000. The unlocated difference at the end of 1974 waa 812,738, according lo Earl Baasett, general manager of the CSUF Association. But, Taylor said lhat he could not determine whst part of the 820,000 waa due to shoplifting. Accounting error*, pricing errors, etc., could be part of the reason for the difference, he said. "Anything that ia swiped is right off the bottom (profit) line," Taylor aaid. But, he said the bookstore does not add a pilferage allowance onto the price of merchandise. Taylor declined to comment on the security system used in the bookstore. But, he did aay. "I'm not trying to challenge the studenU, nor am I going to invite them to come in her* and rip us off." Several employeea of the bookstore aaid they often felt that a atudent might be shoplifting, but that it waa very difficult to actually catch him/her ln the act of stealing. Marge Cook, a bookstore employee for about one year, said, "There's been seversl times that I've suspected someone, but, I've never caught Myrtle Dlebert, an employee for two years, said ahe feels that the bookstore's security methods "The only better way e felt it s justified. would be if w employees," she said. ■ lot n Fund raiser scheduled CSUF students will perform while the Muscular Dystrophy Association will receive in an upcoming fund-raising event. The event is scheduled for March 15-27. Organiiations are being sought on campus to sponsor some of the activities. Eric Solomon, a CSUF graduate assistant who la chairman of the event, said he hopes to get total campus in¬ volvement. "I hope the fraternities and sororities want to get involved," he taid. "I'd like to get the Bulldog Foundation and Alumni Association involved aa well." On* of the highlights of the Muscular Dystrophy activity will be a 12 and one-half day volleyball marathon. The Guinness Book of World Records currently lists 240 hours as the world record. The CSUF event would total 300 hours. Solomon hopes to have a variety of events other than the marathon in conjunction wilh what he calls "our 300 hour fight for "'le." Other activities will include a carnival, with booths for various organiiations; a casino night, featuring "gambling" with play money, and live entertainment that features local talent from within the university. "I want to have some fund- raising activities and some free s going on at the same Those wishing to supply ideas for events or to help on the planning committee may phone Solomon at 291-4607 or 487-2677 anytime. "I'm extending an open in¬ vitation for committee members and for ideaa. I know a lot of people have good ideaa but they're afraid they'll have to coordinate them. That is not the case. I'll find someone to do thst if tbey don't want to," be said. Solomon alto said that be would like students who have previously given him good Ideas lo phone him again. "Last semester I spoke to many dorm students who knew entertainers they could get or hsd great Ideas but I didn't write down their names or their Ideas. Now I need to hear from them again. "Also I'd like to hear from those people in the community who might like to donate contest prizes or money or obtain sponsor sheets," he said. She said this Ume of year, winter, La tbe beat for shoplifters, and the worst for the bookstore. A shoplifter could carry half of the store away underneath a bulky coat, ahe aaid. Alma Borne, 20-year veteran bookstore employee, along with Diebert, said they hsve never caught a atudent stealing. "I think we have a pretty good bunch of kids on campus," Borne said. "And I've been here long enough so I should know," she added. Despite plea* from a of its members, tbe / Student (AS) Senate j recent resignations of lis members of the AS Medls Council. Tbe council chairman, Its two faculty and three professional members resigned after AS President David Nikssarian bypassed the council policy and procedures manual to freeze funds for the Collegian last December.
