Campus Asks ROTC Change;
Lion Wants Later Frosh Hours
The All-University Elections Committee
heard something new in the way of political
party planks this week —Campus party's
platform suggestion that Reserve Officers'
Training- . Corps courses should be elective
rather than compulsory for men students.
Gary Young. Campus party clique chair- the present policy concerning the freshman
man, presented the plank at the committee ; women's hours is unrealistic, and the possi
meeting for the review of the platforms of bility of their extension -should be investi-
Campus and Lion parties.
lie told the committee that he
had spoken with a member of the
administration about elective ver
sus voluntary ROTC courses.
Young said he was told that
steps could be taken toward mak
ing the courses elective if students
express- a df_ire for such a pro
gram.
Under the provisions of the
Morrill Act, Young said, land
grant schools as the University
are required to offer military
training to students. but it need
not be mandatory.
Several members of the Elec
tions Committee said they felt the
plank was outside the realm of
political parties.
The committee approved the
plank by a 15-1-2 vote. A second
plank was unanimously approved{
by the committee. It stated:
'We feel that no artificial pen
alty should be imposed for tun
excused absences from classes,
with the exception of practicum
courses."
Campus party's plank on stu
dent services included two sec
tions.. One recommended that a
commission be established to
sot up a University check-cash
ing service. This was approved
unanimously.
The second section originally
proposed that a student insurance
plan be initiated to provide addi
tional accident and illness cover
age for students. After discussion.
Young agreed to committee sug
gestions that the plank be
changed to read:
"We propose that the student
government recommend to the
University that a University-spon
sored student insurance plan be
initiated .." The revised plank
was unanimously accepted.
IFC to Debate
Rotation Plan
The controversial fraternity
independent rotation system will
be a subject of discussion at the
Interfraternitv Council meeting,
at 7:30 p:rn. Monday in the Het-'
zel Union auditorium.
Although there will be discus
sion of the plan at the meeting.
the council probably will not vote
to favor or oppose the plan until
a later meeting, James Hart, IFC
president, said yesterday.
Other business at the meeting
will include a discussion of the
value of freshman rushing lists
given each year to fraternity rush
ing chairmen.. and whether or not
they should be continued.
