In a heated meeting Wednes
day the Student Council voted to
reject the constitution of Corn
Cobs and to accept the recom
mendation of the Activities Com
mittee not to grant Student Coun
cil representation to Kosrr.et Hub.
Cora Cobs
By a vote of 21 to 8 the Council
rejected the Corn Ccb constitu
tion because of "an undemocratic
method of election of officers."
The Corn Cob offices are
presently selected by the outgo
ing officers, with no provision for
nomination from the floor or vot
ing by the members.
The Student Council rejected this
constitution on Oct. 11 on the
same grounds, according to John
Kinnier, chairman of the Judici -
arv Committee. The Corn Cobs
voted 10 to 7 against the Council
recommendation, according to Bill
Spilker, senior hold over member.
Corn Cobs can now appeal to
the Faculty Sub-Committee on Stu
dent Organizations in order to
have their approval or disapproval
of the present constitution.
"From the voting in favor of
the present constitution, it can be
, seen that the Corn Cobs have ex-j
j pressed their desire to continue
I selection of officers in this!
explained Silker, '"so whai
difference should it make to the
Student Council?"

University Enrollment
Story number three a drop in
enrollment at the University
broke this fall after tbe University
waited nnta October to release
enrollment figures. They bad pre
dicted tbe spring before that en
rollment at tbe University wotQd
be tip. The real fact: enrollment
dropped by 2&1 students from a
year ago, down from ,2S to 8.164.
Aa increase is tuition costs and
tightening of entrance retjuire
ments were listed as big factors
responsible far the enrollment de

Meeting Scene
Dave Keene, senior holdover
member, pointed out that it is
the purpose of the Judiciary Com
mittee to pass approval on organi
sations' constitutions and in this
case, the committee could not pos
sibly accept the Corn Cobs consti
tution because of their method of
choosing officers.
The report of the Activities Com
mittee recommended that Kosmet
Klub not be given representation
of Student Council. Connie Hurst,
chairman, stated that at the pres
ent time, 14 students are from
the colleges, and 14 represent stu
dent organizations. By adding an
other seat on Council, the equal
relationship would be upset. She
further stated that no established
criteria has been set up in the
Council charter to allow another
; representative, Moreover, there are
i many other organizations which
are not granted a seat, such as
Builders and NUCWA.
Members of Kosmet Klub were
then granted permission to ex
press their reasons for wanting a
seat on Council. Morgan Holmes,
president, emphasized the fact
that through Kosmet Klub's fall
and spring shows 2,400 and 3.400
people respectively are affected
Thus he felt that the Klub should
have a voice on the Council in
things that affect them.

The regaining of student voting

removed this power from students
on faculty committees.
