IDCC Constitution Revision
Faces Apportioning Question
By John Fryan
Although its first constitu
tional effort was rejected
by a majority of the dormi
tories, the interdor.n coor
dinating committee (IDCC)
is amending and revising in
the hopes of presenting a
new document to the voters
next semester.
Substantial changes have
already been inserted, but
the major questions of ap
portionment of representa
tives and method of ratifi
cation still face the committee-After
several dormitories
considered the concept of
an inter-dorm council last
year, the existing ones met
and began drafting a con
stitution in March.
Beginning in September,
the representatives started
revising and approving the
final document article-by-article,
section-by-section.
Residences represented in
cluded Abel, Selleck, Wom
en's Residence Halls, Cath
er, Pound, Burr East, Burr
West, Fedde, Love Memori
al and eventually Sandoz.

IDCC Revision Takes Control
Of Court From Vice President
In revising the proposed
Interdorm Associa
tion (IDA) constitution, the
Interdorm Coordinating
Committee has been sepa
rating the branches of the
IDA government. Wednes
day the IDCC modified the
judicial system.
An amendment proposed
by Dave Shonka of Abel
Hall removed control of the
interdormitory court from
the vice president. Former
ly the vice president was
to have been the chief jus
tice. The IDCC acted to b a r
executive officers and coun
cil representatives from
serving among the seven
justices. This defined the
court as a separate branch
of the IDA government, but
the question of selection of
justices was not fully set
tled. Larry Anderson of S e 1
leck Quadrangle substituted
for chairman Jim Ludwig
as the IDCC passed a mo
tion to require that a 1 1
amendments now in mind
be submitted to secretary
Joan Spivy before the Jan.
4 meeting. The general dis
cussion on this motion cen
tered around the need to
speed up the revision pro
cess. Through
other motions,
president, secre
treasurer were
the vice
tary and

was approved unanimously
by the representatives and
was sent to the dormitories
for consideration and vote
by the residents.
The resulting discussion,
conducted at some points
by an "Ad Hoc" commit
tee to defeat the consitution,
argued both for and against
such items as non-voting
membership, the retire
ments of financial assess
ment and the method of ap
proval of the organization
and constitution.
The constitution was de
feated six to four by t h e
dorms, and the committee
began the task anew, con
sidering the objections of
the opponents.
While some of these ob
jections liave not yet been
met in the section-by-section
revision, several
changes have already been
made.
The name has been
from Interdorm Council
to Interdormitory Associa
tion (IDA). The non-membership
clause has been
struck out to imply that if
this constitution passes the
given additional duties. The
vice president is to serve
as adviser and coordinator
for all committees. The sec
retary is now required to
keep a record of all mo
tions of lasting importance,
and the treasurer will keep
a check on property of the
IDA.
An amendment by Wayne
Morton of Abel Hall to pro
vide the vice president with
a vote in case of a tie
was defeated. Morton
argued that the president
already had the veto and
adding the tie vote power
to his rights would give
him too strong a position.
Opponents pointed out that
traditionally, the president
of an organization reserves
this right.
The representatives had
already somewhat es
tablished the separation of

residents, a 1 1 dormitories
and all residents will be
members.
The offices of president
and vice president are now
elective from the dormitory
residents instead of indi
viduals being voted in by
the council. Secretary and
treasurer have become ap
pointive administrative per
sonnel. The judicial system is
now separate from the oth
er branches, with the inter
dorm court's membership
barred to executive officers
or representatives on t h e
council.
Whether the IDA shall re
main a representative body
of the dormitories or turn
to sectional apportionment
crossing dorm lines is the
next section of IDCC con
sideration. Proponents for the o 1 d
system argue that crossing
dorm lines would destroy
the effectiveness of the
council as a coordinating
body between the dorm gov
ernments. They state that
the original idea of an IDC
was based upon maintain-
IDA governmental branches
last week by providing for
the election of the president
and vice president by a 1 1
dormitory residents rather
than by the council itself.
Anderson noted that room
and board rate increases
had already been announced
for next year, urging the
representatives to move fast
er so that an IDA will be
in operation to make rec
ommendations on such mat
ters. John Fryar of Cather
Hall noted that W o m e n's
Residence Halls were n o t
represented at the meeting
and had not been for sever
al weeks. Fryar recom
mended that the chairman
find the reason for t h i s,
since WRH had rejected the
original constitution and has
not sent anyone to help
with revisions.

On the other hand, pro
posals are being made to
effect a council apportioned
according to the total dorm
itory population. Propon
ents for this system say
that this would provide for
a more direct representa
tion of the dormitory resi
dents by guaranteeing each
dorm one delegate and di
viding up the remainder
IDCC chairman Jim Lud
wig has stated that he hopes
for a new constitution ready
for presentation to the resi
dents early in the second
semester.
However the final system,
no dormitory has stated op
position to the idea of an
interdormitory o r g a niza
tion. Such a group would
now represent 4,200 stu
dents, over one-fourth of the
total University enrollment.
Ideas discussed both last
year and this would give
the IDA the position to in
vestigate and make recom
mendations as a represen
tative body concerning stu
dent assistant selection,

construction of new dorms,
and the implications of Uni
