Parietal Rules

On Saturday the fifteenth, the
Board of Visitors will have the
opportunity to consider and hopefully
accept a proposal dealing with
responsible student control of student
affairs. Due to a clerical oversight,
the Board was unable to
consider this proposal at their last
meeting. It is unforeseeable that this
will occur again this Saturday and
we hope that the Board of Visitors
will act with reason in considering
this reasonable student request.

Although the Board of Visitors
may not be fully aware of it, unrest
and dissatisfaction are steadily
growing within the student body.
The lethargy attributed to the Virginia
gentleman is, in our opinion, a
result not so much of apathy as of
sullen resignation. It is within the
power of the Board at Saturday's
meeting to demonstrate their faith
in the students of the University by
approving the student council's proposal
on partial rules. We are
convinced that although this proposal
concerns only one area which
has been neglected in the past, a
favorable reaction by the Board of
Visitors will create a hitherto nonexistent
rapport between student
and trustee.
