In other business, recently elected Academic
Assembly President Thomas Thompson directed
discussion on amendments to the proposed USG
constitution.
Assembly member William Geise motioned to
eliminate the phrase "or currently employed fac

be worded better.
Assembly member John S. Riblet said he did not
think the USG Supreme Court would validate the
constitution without the phrase.
Vincent said
Also, candidates must secure a
petition with 100 signatures as well as
present a resume and two letters of
reference, she said.

The assembly also passed a motion by assembly
member J.R. Clark to amend the proposed USG

In an open discussion at the end of the meeting
Thompson said he would like to see the assembly
introduce at the meetings more outside speakers to
comment on issues the assembly should deal with.
"There are a lot of topics we haven't tapped yet,"
Thompson said.
He also said he would like to work with USG to
improve quality in teaching and advising by mon

"She's not a police officer and you
can't expect her to act like one,"
homicide detective Ron Pavek said of
Lola Webb, who placed the ticket on
the illegally parked car around 9 a.m.
or 10 a.m.
Pavek said Webb was distracted,
talking to someone on the street when
she left the ticket.
Guernsey apparently shot Cohen
sometime after 10:30 p.m. Monday
and then turned 'the .38-caliber re
volver found in the car on herself,
Pavek said.
