Firm Opposition

The student senate emphasized that
cancellation of the demonstration did not
reflect a change in the attitude of the
students by issuing a resolution stating,
"this body maintains its firm opposition
to the enrollment increase."

Several alternatives to staging the
demonstration were reviewed although no
course of action has been decided upon.
The Student Association president
proposed that several students testify
before state legislators at the
appropriations committee meeting of the
General Assembly which is to take place
after the first of the year.

Other proposals included staging a
demonstration directed toward the
administration rather than the legislators.
