Prospective Attorneys Listed

A list of prospective attorneys would
be prepared by a panel of law professors,
who would base their selection solely on
the legal qualifications of candidates. The
panel would then submit the list of
nominees to Student Council, which
would make the final choice.

The Board of Visitors must approve
the hiring of an attorney, Mr. Stevens
said, because his services will probably be
financed through student fees.

It is not now known how much would
be taken from the individual student
activity fee, but the cost is estimated to
be about $2 a year.

Mr. Stevens also said that student
support is crucial for the success of
the proposal.

The Legal Assistance Society is
planning to circulate petitions so that
students may express support, Mr.
Stevens said.
