Search NAME in a Linked List in C++

I have a linked list Student

struct Student  
{
   char name[20];
   char Class[20];
   string reg;
   float cgpa;
   int marks;
   Student *next;

}*head,*lastptr;

What i want to do is to search a Student by a name
here is my searchStudent function which is not working dont know what is the issue..

Student searchStudent(){
 cout << "1. Search By Name" << endl;
 cout << "2. Lower Then CGPA" << endl;
 cout << "3. Equal To CGPA" << endl;
 cout << "4. Greater than CGPA " << endl;
 cout << "5. By Program " << endl;
 cout << "6. Exit" << endl;
 cout << endl;

 char choice;
 cin >> choice;
 if(choice == '1'){
     cout << endl;
     char *name;
     cout << "You chose option #1." << endl;
     cout<<"Please enter name you want to search: " <<endl;
     cin>>name;
     cout << endl << "Listing all student Students : " << endl;
     cout << "-----------------------" << endl;

     Student *current;
     current = head;

     if (current->next == NULL) //Reached end of the list
     {
        cout<<"\n name not found in the Linked List \n";
     }
     while(current != NULL)
     {
         cout<<name[20];
         cout<<current->name;
         if (strcmp(current->name, name) == 0) { //found the element
            cout << current -> name << endl;
            cout << current -> Class << endl;
            cout << current -> reg << endl;
            cout << current -> cgpa << endl;
            cout << current -> marks << endl;

            current = current -> next;
            cout << endl;
         } else { //search next element
             return searchStudent();   //this will call your function again for the next element on the list
         }
     }

    }
}
