Political Party Platforms
1. A non-profit University Co-op Shop to be set up to give Penn
State students the lowest possible prices on such items as textbooks,
school supplies, and possibly clothing. This has been tried and
proved successful in many other Universities.
2. Voluntary R.O.T.C. program which will fulfill the provisions
of the Morrill Act and which has been given the approval of the
Department of Defense.
3. An investigation into the possibilities of setting up student-run,
student-owned, multi-level parking areas in order that the parking
problems can be alleviated. These lots could possibly pay for them
selves by charging hourly rates which might eliminate the need for
the bi-semester parking fees as now assessed.
4. With the announced lack of facilities on the part of the College
of Physical Education, the requirements for physical education
should he changed to four credits instead of two years as now
stated in the Senate Regulations. This would let students under the
four-term system complete their requirements for physical educa
tion in one year. •
5. The following is the pledge of action to carry out these planks:
A. Within the tenure of office and after thorough investigation
relative legislation will be brought before S.G.A., along
with petitions from the student body.
1. S.G.A. coordinate all student governing organizations into a 3. The transferral of power to grant and retract charters to student
