WSGA Will Discuss
Dorm Judicial Group
The formation of a judicial group or "House Council"
in each residence hall to discuss minor offenses of Women's
Student Government Association rules will be recommended
at the next WSGA Senate meeting.
The statement was made by Susanne Smith, former presi
dent of WSGA. The proposed council would be a board
consisting of the residence hall
president; vice president, who
would be chairman; secretary;
treasurer, and floor representa
tives. Hostesses would be ex-offi
cio members.
The WSGA Judicial Board
would hear major offenses and
would act as a court of appeals.
Miss Smith outlined the plan
after her committee on constitu
tion revision discussed the idea at
WSGA retreat Wednesday night.
The committee also will recom
mend that an additional senior
senator be added to Senate. There
is now one senior senator.
The committee on evaluation of
future WSGA projects will rec
ommend that WSGA publish its
own newsletter to further ac
quaint women students with
WSGA.
A committee of Jane Ingley,
Phoebe Humphrey, Jessie Janji
gian, and Nancy Clark was ap
pointed to screen applicants for
WSGA Senate parliamentarian at
the regular meeting of WSGA
Senate following the retreat. The
committee will present four can
