Monday, Oct.ober The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 -Ag Members Feel Obligation F. Their C By Marv McNeff Ag News Editor The Ag Campus .Student Council Representatives, Lori Kjer and Galen Frenzen feel that a Student Council repre sentative has an obligation to channel student opinion through the Council to form constructive policies; thereby helping the students and the University to gain maximum benefit from its resources. For these reasons, it is im portant that each student acquaint himself with the work of the Council and his own representative. As a member of the public ity committee, Frenzen, a member of FarmHouse, helps prepare a summarized ver sion of the minutes from each week's student council meet ing which are then sent to each house president for read ing and discussion during house meetings, to keep all: students in organized houses aware of the workings and Nlichiaan U Government Passes Motion Banning Discrimination Practices The University of Michigan Student Government Council has passed a motion which seeks to eliminate discirmina tion in the membership selec tion practices of student groups. The motion will become of ficial Tuesday unless vetoed by the vice-president for stu dent affairs or ordered a 14 day stay ty the advisory fac ulty committee on referral. Entitled "Membership Se lection in Student Organiza tion," the motion establishes a membership committee to investigate alleged discrimin a t o r y practices in student groups. It also sets up a three-man student controlled tribunal to hear proceedings initiated by the membership committee. The tribunal has the saction ing power to withdraw recog nition from student groups subject to veto by the vice president for student affairs. The Council's action is vest ed under the delegation of au thority from the University Board of Regents. This dele gation, reaffirmed in a dec laration last May, states that Council is empowered to es tablish rules and procedures to implement Regent's bylaw 2.14. This bylaw notes in part that the University "shall work for the elimination of discrimina tion in private organizations recognized by the Universi ty."

Miss Kjer, a member of Love Memorial Hall, serves on the Nebraska student gov ernment and Master's pro' gram committees. She said that contrary to her pre-coun- cil beliefs, the representatives from all the colleges do work for the benefit of all, not each pulling only .for programs beneficial for their own inter ests. When questioned regarding the numoer 01 complaints or suggestions they had received from the students whom they represent Miss Kjer said sev eral call, had come from stu dents who thought more buses were needed during peak peri ods on the Ag-city bus serv ice; Frenzen had received calls regarding the parking situation last spring on Ag, and the ticket mix-up recent ly. Both council representatives felt council proceedings and ship committee to call for these statements. , The motion specifically es tablishes a membership com mittee consisting of five stu dent members including a chairman whose duties are to "receive complaints, collect and process relevant informa tion, investigate suspected vi olation, attempt concilliation and initiate and prosecute proceedings before the ap propriate campus tribunals." The tribunal, consisting of three members selected by the Council executive commit tee is charged with hearing all proceedings initiated by the membership commit tee. Its purpose is to ascer tain facts and impose where necessary on behalf of Coun cil "appropriate sanctions up on student organizations found in violation of rules promul gated by Student Govern ment Council pursuant to this resulution." The tribunal will work along the general lines of a court trial, giving formal notifica tion and appeal rights, but the actual procedures within the hearings will not necessarily adhere strictly to courtroom rules. There have been unofficial objections raised by members of the faculty committee on referral to this tribunal. They feel that Council will be step ping over its limits of authori member as one of the com mittee. Only two of the three have to be student members, the motion states.

Most students do not realize that Council members are ac cessible and both willing and able to consult with students who feel the University should make some change or who need help with organization problems in areas of the coun cil's jurisdiction, according to Miss Kjer. Most students do not realize how much the student council can do, she continued, and consequently it is hard to think of of working for a change through student coun cil. The two council members said the Council associates program, now in its second year, would provide much bet ter qualified and informed students representatives. Both members from Ag agreed that an issue affecting the vital interests for the Col lege of Agriculture would re ceive complete and forceful attention. Concerning the or ganization of student govern ment at the university, they said copies of the Student Council constitution and by laws are available in 230 Stu dent Union for students to check out and read. Regarding future plans, Miss Kjer said her main concern would be with improving com munication between Ag and city campus, and between the council representatives and their constituents. Frenzen said parking space problems might be an area for action sometime in the future, or the question of freshman having cars on cam pus, or the cost of parking permits. Frenzen said that due to the nature of the council, nearly all of its work is done in com mittee meetings, and mainly results and resolutions are presented on the floor during regular council meetings. He said that if some person or organization desired to place a resolution before the council, the best method to do this would involve contact ing one of the council mem bers and having the resolu tion introduced before a meet ing of the executive body of the council, which meets on Mondays preceding council meetings on Wednesday. The two representatives from Ag strongly urged stu dents to be interested in their governing organization, and advised them to contact the council regarding any subject within, any area of the coun cil's concern.

AND FROM MEMBERS OF MORTAR BOARD Regents Approve Changes Ag Departments Get New Names Since July 1, 1963, thre de partments at the College of Agriculture have been oper ating under new names; the former Departments of Dairy, Animal and Poultry Husband ry are no wthe Departments of Dairy, Animal and Poultry Science. The name changes wre approved by the University Board of Regents upotf re quest of t h e three depart ments. In each case the change was made to reflect more accurately the type of work the department carries on Dr. Robert Koch, chairman of the department of animal science, said the name change was the last move made dur ing a gradual series of changes in the emphasis the department places on scienti fic methods and research over the last twenty years. TrTcontrast to the animal science department, Dr. L. K. Crowe of the dairy science de partment said their present research program must con centrate in basic areas to find answers to problems which the dairy industry has neither time nor money to investigate independently. In the Poultry science de partment both applied and basic research are carried out for consumers and the Ne braska poultry industry, ac cording to the department chairman, Dr. John Adams who said the name change clearly reflects the status of science in agricultural re search. Agriculture is now a science, not an art, he said. It does. Certainly, there's no organization today conduct ing more vital business than the business of the United States Air Force. And very few organiza tions that give a college graduate greater oppor tunities for responsibility and growth. As an Air Force officer, you'll be a leader on the Aerospace Team with good pay, a 30-day paid vacation each year, educational opportunities. How can you get started? For many, the best way is through Air Force ROTC. But if you missed out on AFROTC, or if there's no unit on your campus, you can still apply for Air Force Officer Training School. This three-month course leads to a com mission as a second lieutenant in the United States Air Force. For more information about Air Force OTS, see your local Ai' Force representative.
