Eastern News - ---- ------ Group waits to establish model lease by Fred Holmes Zwicky After a brief discussion, the Off· Campus Student Housing Association Thursday postponed further action on a uniform model lease for Eastern'� off-campus students. Currently, OCSHA is working on implementing a standard lease for all houses and apartment complexes, which is being revised by Eastern's Stu dent Legal Service Director Steve Davis. Hank Beurskens, OCSHA landlord representive and Charleston landlord said, "The proposed lease is a student oriented lease. It's not protecting the landlords and. they are the ones with the capital involved.'' "We should drop the proposed lease and modify a lease accepted by the landlords to what would also make the students happy. It would save a lot of time because in the end, you have to sell it to the landlords," Beurskens said.
