US.A. Encourages Student Involvement
From: Kate Connell
Beginning this Fall Term, the
S.G.A, (Student Government
Association) takes on anew name
and a new office, Although it is
now titled the U.S.A, (Undergrad-
uate Student Association), The
‘organization itself has not chan-
ged in any way.
Although they have been work-
ing in their respective positions
since the end of Spring Term, this
term is the first opportunity
that most students at P,S,U, Del=~
Co have had to meet with the
U. S.A. Executive Council Mouhers. left to right: Kate Connell
vice president; Steve Winckelman, president: Mark Steinberg.
secretary. (Not shown, Elynn Whilden, treasurer),
Executive Council: Steve Winck-
elman (Pres.); Kate Connell
V.,P.); Mark Steinberg (Sec,);
and Elynn Whilden (Treas.).
Always Open
The new U,S.,A, office is lo-
cated in Room ‘A?’ of the Stud=-
ent Affairs modular, It is always
open, both to those desiring aid,
and those wishing to help. The"
Board wishes toextenda welcome
to all students both new and old,
with the added hope that you as
a student will get involved in your
organization - the U.S.A,
This is to not only provide the
necessary feedback concerning
the current programs, buttoalso
provide for an influx of new ideas,
as well as to provide the people
power necessary to successfully
carry out ANY project,
Just as the Exec, Councilhasa
responsibility to the students it
represents, each student in turn
has a responsibility to contribute
to the U.S.A. |
Board Of Trustees Rejects
Penn P. L. R. G. Proposal
Pennsylvania Public Interest
Research Group, a cousin of
Ralph Naders’ COMMON CAUSE,
is a student movement in Penn-
sylvania whose objective is to
establish a statewide network
of consumer protection offices,
These offices shall be maintained
by students on a local level who
feed problems intothe state board
of P.JIR.,G. The state board
decides which problems are to
be handled locally and which
are to be channeled into the
professionals in Harrisburg,
The local board, elected by
the students, will not only serve
as a link between students and
the state board, but will also
mobilize and supervise the
campus resources for projects
as well as cooperate with other
campuses and community groups
in his/her capacity.
Participating students are
responsible for electing a rep-
resentative from each Commons
wealth campus as well as six
‘from University Park, who in
conjunction with other repres-
entatives will make up the state
board, The state board is re-
sponsible for the hiring of the
professional staff plus the eval-
uation and handling of all pro-
jects, These professionals, such
as lawyers, engineers, natural
and social scientists, will be
engaged not only in research
investigations, but also in 1obby=-
ing and litigation procedures,
There is also an administrative
executive, hired by the board,
who is in charge of all pro-
ceedings during breaks.
The group petitioned the Board
of Trustees at P,S,U, for accep-
tance into the University system
for funding purposes. Acceptance
is necessary for the initiation of
the proposed funding mechanism,
The petition was received favo-
rably by the Educational Policies
Committee of the Board of
Trustees but was rejected by the
Board itself a short time later.
If approved, funds would come
from contributions of $2 from
each student at the start of each
term, If a student doesn’t care
to back Penn P.I.R.G,. financially,
he will have his money refunded
upon request,
To advance Penn P.IR.G.’s
cause, Ralph Nader made a
personal appearance at this
campus, His talk convinced many
students that Penn P.I.R.G,wasa
worthwhile cause so that they
would sign the petition that was
then delivered to the Board of
Trustees,
However, since the proposed
funding mechanism has been
rejected for the time being, the
infant group is arranging benefit
concerts to raise funds, These
concerts will be made by promi-
nent artists who are donating
their time to help Penn P.I.R.G,
All problems will be welcome
as Penn P.IR,G,’s projects will
be made up not only of individual
- student problems such as rent in-
creases, but of entire community
