dt error §eriote dodgers res Committee [lotion Found Acceptable Acceptance of the proposals on Senate reorganization Wednesday evening brought a tentative halt to recent Senate preoccupation ivith structure and purpose. Proposals from the committee on reorganization, Chaired by Dan Bucks, provided for a return to the old system with two senators from all residence halls with be- tween 31 and 70 members, three from larger halls and one irom smaller halls. The amendments provide for rules and hail regula- tions changes to originate only in joint meetings of the aws board and the c oi HP, subject to ap- proval by the Senate. They also restore the office of Speaker of the Senate, to be nominated by SGA president and elected by a majority vote or the Senate. Ad- ‘ dltiohal nominations require a sec- ond from onethird of tile Senate, Bucks said that his committee's plan “divides the efforts of stu- dent government and gives to those respective groups the responsibility which in st concerns them.” The respoiis‘ 'y ior rule changes is placed with the house presidents, while the Senate takes Care of student services. Bucks described this apparent weakening oi the Senate as an attempt to reinstate its prestige among iaciilty. ad- ministration, and student' He said the Senate has previously lost prestige by attempts to initi- 3 t . approved Wednesday. ate rule changes, citing the Fried- lander proposals which included seven day a week open dorms. Under the new system the house presidents do not participate in SENATOR DAN BUCKS was chairman ot the committee which drafted the constitutional amendments the Senate the Senate. A set of amendments to the committee’s proposals was deieated by the Senate. Drawn up by Bob Barrow and John Black, the amendments gave the Senate chomp Proposals the power to initiate rule changes, included house presidents in the voting body or the Senate, and allowed the C of HP and AWS to meet separately. Tlle Bucks pro- posals require joint meetings. In presenting his amendments to the amendments, Black com- merited “I decided to indulge in the game we’ve all been playing of constitution writing.” Bucks defended his committee's division oi power, saying “it is my opinion that house presidents have been here tour years and are informed. Nonetheless house presidenis’ primary concern is in the rules area.” Bucks stressed the importance or having each branch deal with that area which most directly concerns it. Dick Chady differed with the committee’s change in the Sen- ate’s structure. “The only argu- ment you've presented is one tor wider participation. The arguments we have over structure are large- ly irrelevant, I have yet to he convinced that we do need a change.

After a rather tedious debate and some lively haggling over parliamentary procedure, Senate members accepted the committee on reorganization‘s proposals as submitted, by a 16-2 vole.

Freshman fiuspendcd 0n Visitation Giordes By Bob Hotlierlle A Read freshman woman was suspended from school for the remainder of the aca- demic year this week by the Faculty Committee on Stu- dent Affairs. The suspension came Tues- day after a meeting of the Faculty Committee The wom- an told the 5&3 Thursday that She has not and will not appeal the decision. The Suspension of the wom< an follows last week’s sus pension of a Smith sopho~ more man. The man was SuS< pended when he was found in his room with a woman by in Buildings and Grounds elec- tl‘ician. Tile Faculty Committee al- Nexl Year’s calendar Gains 0K By Faculty Approval of the 1966-67 academ- ic calendar was the major con- sideratinn at last Monday's facul— ty meeting. The new calendar will have one signiticnnt change: a four - day mid . semester break in early No- vember, one day more than this year’s. Dean James H. Stauss, who . chaired the meeting, declined to comment on the rest of the agen- da. legcs that the woman sus- pended is the one who was in the mall’s room. The man did not at any time identify the woman to the committee. The woman does not admit to being in- volved in the incident. It is the feeling of friends of the students that the committee and the deans acted upon supposition and circumstan- tial evidence only in suspend- ing the woman. The Scarlet and Black asked the chairman of the Faculty Committee on Stu- dent Affairs, John Burma (sociology), and the various deans upon what they based their identification of the woman Suspended. All re- fused to comment ill any way. In the past it has been the policy of the Faculty Conl- nlittee and the (leans not to comment or give justifica- tion for suspensions.
