In the two day elections students also
voted on proposed amendments to the
Judiciary Committee constitution.
According to the present constitution, 40
per cent of the student body must turn
out to vote in order for the
amendments to pass. While all five
amendments received a majority vote, it
is doubtful that the election produced a
40 per cent turn out.

Proposed amendment number one
received an 814 to 342 vote to
change "maintenance of discipline and
gentlemanly and ladylike conduct of
University of Virginia students" to
"...maintnance of discipline and conduct
of University of Virginia Students."

On proposed amendment number
two students voted by 815 to 194 to
change the current wording of Article V
Number 3 of the constitution to read.
"In determining whether to accept cases
on appeal the Judiciary Committee shall
determine if the accused was accorded in
the original proceeding a fair hearing.
The Committee in a do noro hearing shall
apply the rules and regulations of the
Judiciary Committee."

On proposed amendment number
three the vote was 815 to 194 in favor of
changing "On appeal from a special judicial
body, the Committee in a de novo
hearing shall apply the substantive rules
and regulations of the special judicial
body. In all cases on appeal the Judiciary
Committee shall determine if the accused
was accorded in the original
proceed hearing."
