Referendum Results

If this constitution is passed in the election
next Wednesday, October 8, then the elections
for the representatives will be held the
following Wednesday, October 15. The results
of the referendum will be announced next
Friday, according to Jim Riley, assistant
chairman of counselors for first-year dorms.

Officers for the Council of president, vice
president, and secretary-treasurer will be
elected by the Council at their first meeting in
November.

The council representatives will hold office
as long as they are dorm residents. If a
representative should miss three meetings
during the semester without an excuse accepted
by a majority of the Council, then they are
automatically expelled from the body and a new
election will be held on the representative's
floor.

Petition by a majority of a floor's residents
can call for a new election any time during the
year.
