Controversy continues ...
Regents to review motion
to alter open door ruling
The University Board of
Regents will review the deci
sion which the subcommittee
on student affairs reaches to
day on a motion which would
a.ter the open door ruling of
the open house policy.
Regent consideration is set
for next Friday.
The motion, introduced by
Paul Byerly, ASUN advisor,
at a Feb 20 Faculty Senate
Committee on Student Af
fairs meeting, states that only
students participating in the
open house shall be required
to abide by the controversial
open door regulation.
The open door rule, article
five in a six-clause stipulation
list passed in December by
the subcommittee, states that
all doors except those of resi
dents absent from the floor
during the open house must
remain open and those resi
dents leaving the floor must
register their abscence with
" the responsible officer.
After discussing the issue,
the Committee on Student Af
fair passed a motion direct
ing the subcommitte to recon
vene and consider the motion.
Bruce Bailey, who has spo
ken before the Committee and
the Board of Regents on the
question and Byerly are ten
tatively slated to discuss the
matter with the subcommittee.
Bailey said he and Byer
ly would submit the motion
with a request that the sign
out sheets be eliminated from
the motion.
In discussing the Regents'
decision to hold a meeting one
week after the subcommittee
reaches a verdict, Bailey said
the Regents are interested in
working immediately with the
controversial situation.
In talking more than two
hours with the Regents on
the open housing issue at a
Regents meeting Feb. 23,
Bailey said the Regents
pointed out several aspects of
the issue that had not been
discussed previously.
"They said they not only
have to worry about the legis
lature and the tax payer,
which is joked about, but they
have their own personal ob
ligations as well," he added.
We're just going to attack
the problem again, said Hel
en Snyder, chairman of the
seven member committee
composed of representatives
from the faculty, administra
tion and student body.
At a meeting in early Feb
ruary, the subcommittee re
convened and altered two
clauses of the housing policy
but refused to reconsider the
open door ruling.
At that time, the group said
the open door rule was the
lone clause which differenti
ated an open house from the
coed visitation proposal which
the Regents denied last April.

Students become artisans
preparing for 'King Lear'
by Joan McCullcugh
Junior Staff Writer
Students have become tail
ors, sculptors, furriers, met
al workers and jewelry maK
ers In preparing for "King
Lear," now in rehersal at the
University Theater.
The play will be presented
on week-ends March 8 through
23.
Costumes and sets are in
dicative of the barbaric atmos
phere in the Middle Ages and
early Gothic Periods, Lnris
topher Kohoult, costume and
set designer, said Monday.
Bottle caps, lumps of glass,
large uncut jewels and un
usual buttons have been used
to make the massive jewelry
worn in that period.
Styrofoam granite
Two girls cut metal sheets
to make the banner King
Lear carries in the first
scene. The crude, barbaric
stage settings, resembling
granite blocks, are made from
styrofoam sprayed with
plastic fixative.
"We hit all the drapery and
fabric sales, as well as t h e
Goodwill and Salvation Army
trying to cut down expenses
and get what we wanted
Kohoult said.
Countless bedspreads and
draperies have provided the
roughly textured material for
the costumes.
The color and the fabric
of the costumes develop the
contrasts and define the re
lationships of the characters
in the play.
Deviating colors
King Lear's green and blue
costume in the first scene is
the focal point for the rest
of the costumes. His three
daughters wear various com
binations of the colors which
deviate as they leave the
court.

IFC to enforce
rules on rushing
The Interfraternity Council
(IFC) ruling which prohibits
the rushing of high school
seniors is ..ot on the books
for display purposes. Sid Log-
emann, IFC president, told
representatives of IFC at
Wednesday's meeting.
Logemann explained that he
intends to dispell false notions
concerning the seriousness of
the measure, which was pass
ed last year.
"We do mean it," Loge
mann said, adding "It was
not passed just to pacify high
school administrators.
Logemann said that he had
received reports of a few vio
lations.
Warning the IFC represen
tatives that high school autho
ities are well aware of the
ruling, Logemann reminded
them of the penalties that
can be incurred for violating
the rule measure.

A great deal of fur has

Kohoult has solved some

BIG

by Kent Cockson
Junior Staff Writer
There are several dif
ferences between the exist
ing University court system
and the system proposed in
the recent Report on student
disciplinary procedures.
The Student Senate Report
proposes the establishment of
a renewed Student Court to
take the place of the tribunal
now used under the office of
Student Affairs.
Bob Weaver, chairman of
the sub-committee that for
mulated and submitted the
report to Student Senate, said
that it is unclear whether the
student can now go to the
Student Tribunal and expect
that body to determine his
guilt or innocence without a
review from the Office of Stu
dent Affairs.
The report adds that the
ASUN Student Court does not
deal with disciplinary matter
directly, but is mainly on
cerned with complexities that
anse within the organization
al structure of ASUN.
weaver saia tnat the new
Student Court would take on
the functions of the ASUN
court as well as a renewed
power to actually determine
the guilt or innocence of
student defendant in all cases
of original jurisdiction which
are outlined in the report and
in all a p p e a 1 s from lower
courts.
Another difference between
the current and proposed sys
tems lies in the organization
and structure of appelate
courts.
If the student is dissatisfied
with any decision made by the
Student Tribunal, he may ap
peal to one of two Faculty
senate subcommittees, de
pending on the nature of his
case, whether it is an aca
demic or a disciplinary prob
lem. The new Student-Faculty
Court calls for a combination
of these two highest avenues
of appeal with an addition of
University students to the
bench.
Since the Student-Faculty
Court would remain the high
est court of appeal, most of
the decision-making weight
would be allotted to the seven
faculty judges compared to
two student judges, who would
be members of this court in
the interest of the student
body.
Weaver said that the Student-Faculty
Court would
have an additional function
tnat is not assumed by any
court in the present structure.

it is alleged that a regulation

Our guess: the press.
Because it was colorful and convenient;
. But also because folks like it that way.
If s so much easier to choose up sides;'
To dismiss everything a man says
(If he's on the other side)
Rather than go to all the trouble of weighing)
The parts of his speech.
It's the way our politicians raised us, after ad.
Or lowered us.

And deserves it

Should stand or fall on their merit
Not their badge.
