Both the ultimate authority and the authority for day to day decisions seems to rest in Whalen's hands, games both Rosenthal said. Mike House '96 said he thinks it was a wise choice for home and Whalen to step down. However, he thought Whalen would wait until the enrollment numbers were higher and away. stable, he said. "I think its a good time for him to step down," House said. "He's been here a long time. I think he's been president longer than most [students] have been alive, so I think new leadership will benefit Ithaca College." House added that he would like to see a president who is more willing to listen to students and respect them. Ho~ever, Whalen is to be given credit for many of the College's successes, said Brian Doutch '96. "J .J. actually has some qualities I would want in a new president. I think he's a good fund raiser," Doutch said. "I think he's done a lot for the school in that regard, but I don't think he's a great leader." Doutch said charisma and the ability to inspire are qualities he would like to see in the new president. "[Whalen] doesn't inspire stu­ dents." Phoebe Vanscoy '96 said she believes Whalen is stepping down because the downsizing controversy has made him ineffective. "I feel like he is probably doing it because he's not going to be able to do anything now that people are so angry." She also questioned whether Whalen kept the .. ,t· ,..· ~ faculty and staffs best interests in mind. --~ David Sill, manager of classroom audio visual ser­ Y'".. vices for the Instructional Resources Center, said he also thmks downsizing has decreased the president's effec­ tiveness. "The problem ofdownsizing has caused enough bad feelings; it might be wise for him to retire," Sill said. The situation would be problematic regardless of the person initiating it, he explained. The issue of a new president is one that the entire College should deliberate carefully and seriously, Rosenthal said. Ithacan File Photo
