Amend More Easily

Frank Homer also introduced an
amendment that would change the
amending process to read "amendments
shall be ratified by two-thirds
of those casting ballots voting
in favor of it." The amendment
passed unanimously.

Mr. Bigley also brought up the
second of the proposed amendments
tabled last week. The proposal,
submitted by Rick Evans,
was that "the President of the
Student Council shall be elected
by popular vote of this entire
student body of the University
from three students nominated by
Council. Nominees shall be
selected from either members of
Council or students whose names
are presented accompanied by a
petition signed by at least 25
students."
