Chargesto be laid By Carolyn Ryan It’s Wednesday, twelve midnight. , Two Marian Hall residents lea‘ire the Blanchard Hall house ‘party and walk back to residence: ' Stoppingto talk to three girls from Bernardine, they notice three yo'u'ths loitering in the area, but think nothing of it. The youths try unsuccess- fully to enter the girls’ resi- dence, but are asked to leave. The resident students are still in frontiqf Marian Hall. One of the guy's feels “a tap on the'shOulderf’, and starts to turn around. “The 'next thing I knew, I was on the ground,” says Rick Tarkka, a third year Engineering student.

The two students and three administrators were to meet on Tuesday to make the decision, which will be withheld until as least the middle of April.
