Innocents strive In their quest for a more relevant purpose, this year's Innocents Society is planning to be more involved and service oriented than ever before. "We're searching for a new identity," said Wally Dean, In nocents treasurer. "We hope to be more of an activist group, not in the radical sense but by being more involved." The Society will continue many programs and initiate innovations in an effort to find new ways to help the university community. A bi-racial education pro gram is one innovation. The purpose is to educate people of different races on other race's views of problems. The group is also working to create funds for minority stu dent scholarships.

"We hope to get involved with issues as they develop," he said. "For example if another student strike occurred we would be active one way or another." Legislative lobbying will be another area of involvement. The Innocents plan to gather research material and present the student's position when . university related items are considered by state legislature. Dean added that they might lobby in non-university mat ters, also. Ken Wald, president of the society, stressed the change in the type of person who is an Innocent today as opposed to past years.

"Many influential people around the GSA discusses constitution "How can we take any kind of action if our association doesn't even represent graduate students?"' lamented John Stone.

"I assumed that 300 chairs would be too many to set up for this meeting," said Stone. "But I didn't think it would, be this many too many." 'There were some good, valid points of discussion tonight," he said. "But we should have talked about these things last year."

During this week Nebraska alumni who are outstanding in their profession will be invited to campus to talk with classes and living units concerning their respec tive career. Special Hyde Park programs are planned from time to time in which top ranking university better turn-out next meeting," he resolved. The discussion started off slowly. Fritz Edelsteln, graduate student in English, led complaints that this was the first time many students had seen the constitution. But as there was nothing else to discuss, Edelstein finally decided to "move that we review the constitution."
