PAGE TWO Why Does It Get So Late So Early? In- many schools anti, colleges a bell o r buzzer ;.!listem is , used to infoom both leachers and student's Ora the clas s hour is over. To many this pradtice play seem childish and unnecessary. Here at Penn State, however, the short period of ten•rninutes allowed between classes is bare ly a s ufficient amount 'of time to go from one building to another—say Ag Hill to Main Eng. Therefore it is essential that eacih professor dis 'diSS cil'ass at the exact time scheduled. If some fystern could be devised to let both the. professor rind ,Vhe students know that the time is up, much of iihe unnecesisary rtu , ihing and lateness could be (Cabinet And Pollock Circle Cabinet, at its first meeting of the tcprine; semester, decided that Pollock Circle should !be denied a :Voting membership in Cabinet. Perhaps it would be 'best to here explain not only the Pol 't,.)ck Circle Council's reasons for thinking th e group for such representation, but also Cabinet's venson Par r efusing it to them. • The Pollock Circle Council's reasons for wanting a seat on Cabinet, as e xplained by the representatives they sent to Cabinet last semes ter, are contained in two points: (1) Pollock Circle is the largest living group on campus, and as such (2) needs special representation to care for its peculiar problems. Had Cabinet wished to grant the request an Ltimendment to the constitution would taave• been necessary. Cabinet refused the request because (1) Pol lock Circle is merely a campus living group and othe r campus living groups do not have special representation on campus; (2) Pollock..

Far too often an extra question from en energetic classmate, or the professor who wishes to stress just one mbrq point, makes a student late to his next class. No professor: erjoyis the, members of his class trouping in late but now frequently the professor who insists on promiptnesS habitually keeps his class five to seven minultes later than scheduled. There is a definite need,for letting the peal' as well as the students know what time the class sfhould be dismissed. inei through class presidents, ISC, IFC, and their student councils. Cabinet members felt that, should they grant a seat to Pollock Circle, other living grobps might feel juslified in requesting the same privilege. They explained that mer e size should not entitle Pollock Circle to special/representation. Cabinet felt that Pollock Circle residents eculd be adequately represented through IFC, ISC, and other groups. • Upon questioning Frank Tidona, ISC president, it was found that few PoHeck Circle residents take active part in that .organization, even though the majcrity of them fall f n the category of indepen dent students. Several members of Cabinet expressed the opin ion tihat, if the residents of Pollock Circl e do not take part in the activities of the groups already representing them on Cabinet, they could not be en titled to special representation just because they have organized themselves as a separate unit.
