DAILY NEBRASKAN Friday, April 24, 1942 Senior Council Considers Constitutional Amendment At Final Meeting of Year There were not enough mem bers of the Senior Council present at their last meeting of the year last night for a quorum, so the meeting was never called to order, but the plan of reorganization was explained by Jack Stewart, presi dent, and suggestions made for next year. The reorganization plan would Involve an amendment to the con stitution providing for the cen tralization of power in the hands of the execHtive committee, with the provision that three-fourths of a quorum of members of the Sen ior Council meeting together could over-ride any action of the executive group. Such an amendment will be taken by the members of the pres ent executive committee to mem bers of the Senior Council for their approval or disapproval. Those present last night felt that Buch an amendment would be passed. The amendment would take care of several of the weaknesses, two of which are that the group is too large, and it does not have any thing to do which is not encroach ing on the activities now taken over by another organization. Efficiency to be Greater. By investing the power in a smaller group which could dele gate committees, more work could be accomplished and would be done quicker. There are several fields of activity which might be undertaken in the future and they could be investigated by a small group. Such activities would include a senior week, a Senior Prom in stead of a Junior-Senior Prom, senior gift to the university, com plete control of commencement announcements, caps and gowns and various war activities such as sending the school paper or let ters to soldiers in the army who attended the university. According to the new plan the Senior Council would meet once, in the fall. At this meeting an ex ecutive committee would be elect ed as it was this winter, com posed of five members plus the senior class president. Then the executive committee would take over all authority. A suggestion was made that members of the Council should not be presidents of organizations, but representatives, and another, that an alternate should be appointed in case the president could not attend. The annual senior-alumni re ception and dance to be held May 23, the Saturday before com mencement, should be attended by members of the Council and they should urge all seniors to attend this reception given by the Chan cellor, it was announced. The re ception will be at 8:30 and the dance at 9:30 in the Union. All seniors are urged to attend.
