Commonwealth Representatives at U.S.G. SELECTION PROTESTRn In Student Government, the Commonweitlth Campuses have been very badly represented down state. Last .fall the Organization of Student Gov ernment Associations, composed of re presentatives from the commonwealth, tried to remedy this. But O.S.G.A. needed the support of Penn State's Undergraduate Student Government. O.S.G.A. did not receive this support. Now for geographic and status S.G.A. is protesting the move, reasons, the plan is changed. Penn and trying to see that the' commonwealt State's U.S.G. still retains the power, have some say in selecting its represe but for the first time there will be ative. They are not specifically pro a representative of the commonwealth. testing the selection of Accary, howevi they are merely protesting the manner 1 his selection. We at Behrend are glad to be represented. One member will make no sweeping changes, but it helps to at least have a spokesman. But even this minor triumph has been botched. The commonwealth 'representative was not chosen by the commonwealth campuses. He was chosen by Penn State's U.S.G. The common wealth had no voice in this at all, and they resent it. Even S.G.A. here at Behrend had no voice in selecting the man. And as it turns out, the man is pro bably a bad choice for the position. First of all, he is not from the commonwealth. He is a student at the main campus. This is all right because it enables him to attend meetings down state, but it still would be better if he were a commonwealth student. The man's mame is Accary, former of Alttona Campus, which is admirable. He spent one year there, and worked on the newspaper. But Mr. Accary has no experience with student government! How can he expect to be a good repre sentative for all the campuses? It is believed that Accary was selected to appease the Students for Democratic Society, racial equality clubs, and other groups of no direct consequence to the commonwealth. c, GA, oFFic&- Ho viq .4) oA-) 7 - (-r Es G- c . c .
