from parties whose platforms and
systems of organization have be
come out-dated from year to year.
"Only such gTOups as are of
ficially recogrnized by the Stu
dent Council as political parties
may present party candidates in
any campus election. This in no
way means that a student who
does not belong: to a party is
barred from filing- his candidacy
for office, providing he meets the
requirements set up for all can
didates for office. Such a student
is free to file as an independent.
"In the same way, no student
shall be required to belong: to a
political party. He may vote
simply as an independent, casting:
his ballot for those candidates
whom he considers best fitted for
the positions open. Nor shall any
party member be required to vote
a straight party ticket. He may do
so if he chooses, but it is to be
hoped that he will cast his ballot,
for the most worthy candidate for
each position, regardless of that
candidate's political affiliation. I
"A party member's main duty
parties provide a means for hold
ing persons responsible for what
action they take when once in
office.
'Turthermore, the Council
hereby legalizes, and in fact, de
mands, the existence of a faction
organization within each recog
nized party, primarily to aid each
party in operating as easily and
efficiently as possible. The faction
is to be a group of party members
elected to represent the party as
a whole in the conduct of that
party's business. It shall be the
duty of the faction to draw up its
party's slate of candidates for
each campus election and to keep
the party as a whole informed of
that party's activities.
"It is the hope of the Council
to make the campus politics as
democratic, i.e., as truly repre
sentative of all students, as pos
sible. Therefore, toward this ac
complishment of the second aim.
the following suggestions are
made regarding the formation of
political parties,
"1. The name of the party. It is
realized, tho in no way endorsed
by the Council, that a party con
sisting of Greeks alone and 1
party consisting of Barbs alone
to his party is in helping to select
the most worthy members of his
party for candidates for office. His
duty in the final election is to the
school, in helping to put the most
worthy of the candidates into of
fice, j
"The council has two main i
aims in taking this action with re- f
gard to political parties, namely: I;
training among the students in the
handling of those political institu
tions which are characteristic of
our present national and local i
governments. !
2. To make our campus politics
more democratic. I
"Toward the accomplishment of i
the first aim, the Council agrees J
to recognize political parties; first, I
because parties provide an effec-
tive means of choosing candidates'
for office, and second, because
may possibly be formed on the
campus. However, some Creeks
may not choose to belong to the
first party and some Barbs may
not choose to belong to the sec
