With 64% of the student body voting (an unusually large turnout for a referendum), the result was 403-290 in favor of allowing the nineteen to forego their board fees, although it means paying an increase of about $3.65 per boarder next semester. Another sidereffect of the op- tion will be the necessitation of a checking system in the dining halls. Effective October 6, according to the rererendum, each boarder will be required to give his meal card number to a checker and in some Cases identify himseli upon entering the dining room for each meal. in another section of the ref- erendum, a small majority in- dicated they did not want more Saga options, presumably be- cause more options, according to the referendum, would an- tail showing a photo LD. card at each meal.

A general proposal by Presia dent Leggett through the facul- ty‘s Organization Committee on effecting ways of involving stu- dents in curricular considera- tions was also presented The so-far unpublicized statement used the words “orderly, mean- ingful” to describe the consid- eration or ways to involve stu. dents.
