THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Assembly Opposes Alternates
For Student Teacher Absentees
By CAROL BLAKESLEE
The SGA Cabinet last night
by a narrow margin opposed
having alternates for Assem
bly members who are student
teaching.
The vote was two for and three
against a bill proposed by James
Kridel (C.-Soph.) and Jacqueline
Myers, alternate Assemblyman.
The bill asked that the SGA Con
stitution be amended to allow al
ternates to sit for Assembly mem
bers who are obliged to be off the
TOM & JERRY'S SUB SHOPPES
campus to meet academic require
ments.
Kridel said he felt it was dis
criminatory to allow no alter
nates at all, since 18 to 23 per cent
of the students on campus are en
rolled in the College of Education.
He said, however, that those
who lose their Assembly seats
because of a lower average
should not be allowed to have
alternates.
Rules Committee Chairman Jay
Hawley said that a better means
of choosing alternates should be
devised rather that just putting
the names on the campaign pos
ter as Kridel suggested.
