TORRIS RANDOLPH CARTER Candidates for Senior Class President • • • * • • The Undergiaduate Student Government in relation to the offices of secretary-treasurer and senior class president was dis ctissed last night by candidates for these positions in an inter-, view with Daily Collegian reporters.- The candidates for senior class president, Randolph Carter, University party, and John "Buddy" Torris, Campus-Liberal parties, agreed that the senior class president should have a definite' connection with USG, whether as a voting. or an ex officio member. THE SECRETARY-TREASURER CANDIDATES, 'Katherine Johnson, Campus-Liberal parties; arid 'Margo Lewis, University party, agreed that their job, if elected, would be4me in, which they would help to stimulate student interest in student govern ment. Explaining his reasons for wanting a close connection with student government, Torris said, "Although you meet many peo ple, it is impassible to know every, member of the class." Because USG Congressmen represent every area on campus, and know: the feelings of their constituents, he said, • the - class president would be able to determine more effectively the wants and needs 'of his class if he were a member of Congress. • Carter said; "The class needs a strong leader who is sensi tive, to' student opinidn, but the president should know better than anyone else just what the cf•ss needs. 'Just the title of class presiclet itself," he said. "brings more clasS pioblems to the class president's attention than a USG representative ever could." ' BY HAVING DIRECT CONTROL: over the student opinion bureau, which the University party plans to set up if its slate is elected, Miss Lewis said she could increase student interest. She said that by calling students to learri their opinions on is sues and by compiling this information so that it can be presented to the administration, the secretary-treaSurer can be a co ordinator of student opinion, USG legislation and the adminTs trators' viewpoints. • Miss Johnson said one- of her ideas for creating greater student interest in USG is to publish enough copies: of the USG agendas so they would be available to any interested students. IN DISCUSSING THE CLASS GIFT, the candidates for class president' agreed 'that the gift should definitely be something which would be for the University rather than a donation to an outside organization, such as was suggested this year by, s mem bers of the World University Service. Carter said, if elected, that 'this is one area in which he would begin working intmediatOy so he would know the specific needs of the University at gift-selection time. Torris said';he felt that each cliss'should make its own con tribution 'so that class members could refer to something they had specifically donated to the University. to USG VOL. 62.
