HELP WANTED
At the Student Council meeting this past Wednesday four written suggestions
for a proposed amendment to our Constitution were received. Of the four, submitted,
three of them contained the same principle wording. The two proposed amendments
which Council has decided to consider officially are as follows: 1, A student
council member’s term shall be one academic year unless his class status changes
within that year. In this case an election will be held to replace him# 2, Any
student elected to Student Council as a freshman and who at mid-semesters (Editor:
meaning?) automatically becomes a sophomore shall complete the full academic year
as a council member#
After further recommendations from the student body, the council will de
cide on one amendment. Two weeks from this date of the official publication of
the amendment, council will vote upon this amendment.
Council has set up an .Amendment Committee to handle any suggestions the
student body has forthe formulating of the amendment, This committee is composed
of Andrew Karpinski, Pat Tomsho, and Elise Kreiger,, To have any idea considered,
all that has to be done is for a student to express (preferably written expression)
this wish to one of the members of this oommittee#
If a petition signed by one third of the student body is presented to this
same committee requesting that the student body be allowed to vote on this amend
ment, the council will have to subnit the amendment to the vote of the entire
student body. This is in compliance with the 13th article, section 2, clause of
the constitution#
