College Cabinet Approves Revised Constitution
_Open Student Meeting
To Discuss Changes
Called For Monday
In a three-hour session last night,
All-College Cabinet approved the
complete revision of the Penn State
Student Government constitution
'and called a special open discussion
meeting scheduled in the Alumni
Association offices at 8 o'clock
Monday night.
President Robert D. Baird called
the meeting• to give the students a
, chance to review the new phases
of the constitution and reopen dis
.cussion for possible revisions. After
Monday's meeting, the Cabinet will
meet Tuesday night to take, final
action upon the revised constitu
tion.
The complete revised constitu
tion will be published in The Daily
Collegian after Cabinet's final ac
tion, and it will be placed for ap
proval or disapproval by the stu
dent body during All-College elec
tions, March 24, 25, 26. •
After three hours of debate, Cab
inet patched up many flaws in the
constitution. Some of the import

Finance Board, the restatement of
the composition of the Student Tri
bunal, the placing of student audit
ing and finance upon a two conse
cutive semester rather than an an
nual basis, and a restritcion of the
All-College president's veto pow
ers.. •
