State - Party
In the past few years, political
platforms at Penn State have
been open to serious question.
Promises have been made, and
not fulfilled. The State party is
very aware of this situation and
realizes that the only way to win

sincere promises and if elected,
to carry them out. Thus our first
pledge— •
1. To fully investigate and take
all steps to satisfy the student
needs listed below.
2. To make positive by passage
of law that.there will be no more
student assessments without giv
ing every student the right to
cast a ballot through the referen
dum system, and thereby express
his opinion on such assessments.
Coed Ruling
3. To allow to every coed the
right to'appear before the Wom
en's Judicial before decisions are
handed down in every case—
major or minor—that falls under
the jurisdiction-of that body.
4. To give the sophomore class
its long past 'due representation
on the. Tribunal. •
5. To re-examine the question
of bugdingN sorority hbuses on
campus in view of the recent re
newal of interest on that subject.

section of New Beaver field so
that the President might at his
convenience be seated with the
