Student Representation
On Senate to Be Aired
A student encampment recommendation proposing that students
act as representatives on each standing committee of the University
Senate, except rules, has been presented to Adrian 0. Morse, Uni
versity provost", for consideration by the Senate.
Morse had not decided when the. recommendation will be pre
sented to Senate, but he said that it might possibly be presented
at Senate's next meeting, Jan. 6
If the recommendation is ac
cepted by Senate, students would
serve in an advisory capacity on
each Senate committee except stu
dent affairs. The recommendation
proposed that on the student af
fairs committee, three student rep
resentatives be allowed, all with
voting powers. These three stu
dehts would include the All-Uni
versity President, one man and
one woman, at least one of whom
would be a member of All-Uni
versity Cabinet.
Under the plan set up by the
group, the representatives would
be chosen by a joint Cabinet and
Senate Committee. The students
on the students affairs committee,
with the exception of the All-Uni
versity president, would be chosen
in the same way.
The recommendation, drawn up
by the encampment committee on
campus—community government,
also proposed that all student rep
resentatives on Senate committees
comprise a standing committee of
Cabinet. This group would be re
sponsible to and chaired by a Cab
inet member who would coordi
nate reports and present them
regularly to Cabinet.
The recommendation further
suggested that the Cabinet mem
ber selected for representation on
Senate's Student Affairs Commit
tee would chair Cabinet's stand
ing committee on student affairs.
This person would coordinate re
ports of the committee and would
report to Cabinet.
