3rd Party
May Ratify
Constitution
The Campus Party will outline
its purposes, and may ratify its
constitution and elect clique of
ficers at its first clique meeting
Sunday night.
The party is open to all stu
dents, regardless of their past
political affiliations.
Purposes and reasons for form
ing the third party, according. to
John McMeekin, an organizer of
the party, are:
1. To propose and promote par
ticipation in student government.
2. To provide capable student
leaders to fill positions of respon
sibility in student government.
3. To provide all students with
a democratic opportunity for rep
resentation in student govern
ment.
McMeekin said yesterday that
he felt student government should
take a more active part in campus
issues and that party candidates
should have a chance to be elect
ed on what they intend to do and
their capabilitibs, rather than on
a platform of planks such as "no
Saturday classes."
The party has submitted its
constitution for approval by the
Senate Committee on Student Af
fairs subcommittee on organiza
tional control. Ross B. Lehman,
chairman of the subcommittee,
said yesterday that any group
may hold organizational meetings
until the time of the committee's
approval.
If Lehman's subcommittee ap-
I proves Campus Party's constitu
tion it will be sent to the Senate
Committee on Student Affairs.
The final stop in obtaining a
charter will be the vote of the
University Senate.
The party can not go into elec
tions without a charter approved
by the Senate.
