by the University Board of
Regents at their meeting
April 1. The Regents re
worded a section pertaining
to amendments, but ac
cording to Dave K e e n e,
Council member instrumen
tal in setting up the Trib

which the Regents made
did not alter the setup of

this same section was re
worded to include that
amendments would be
made only with the consent
of the Senate.

plied within the original
wording and that the
amendment would not have
