The HUSA Personnel Committee last week selected Sam Hutchinso n as Director of the D.C. Project to replace the recently fired Clint Walker. ' Hutchinson's appointment, the HILLTOP feels, was a wise but extremely belated decision which serves to show, among other things, the procrastinating and indecisive nature of many • of those who profess to be o ur student leaders. By all rights, Hutchinson should have been appointed director of the Project in September. He had headed the entire summer research phase of the D.C. Project and probably knew / more about how the Project could be effectively implemented than anyone on campus. But instead, when the time came to choose a director, HUSA President Sandy Daly no minated To ny "Mawu" Straker and Vice-President Charles Hall nominated Hutchinson, However, the HUSA Senate, nol willing to take a categorical stand with either the pre~dent or the vice president, turned down both of the original no minees and chose a man of its own, Clint Walker. It is this type of personality conflict and indecisiveness of which our student leaders need to rid themselves. • How a v- J UN •ve,.,.:s •"+i S le.ep~ Rssoc111+•0,..
