The super board was proposed as one of SO recommendations by the Citi zens Commission for fee Study of t Higher Education. The board would consist of nine members, three from each congressional district. The gover nor would appoint regents to six-year terms on the board. .

Gc'datcin called the program a " Yecruit- nsent process' where more diversified student senators could go out in differ ent areas and get a greater response from students."

"It would let them feel that cn- campus students want them on cam pus," Lane said. '" e-Keatisg said he agreed that off cam pus students are vital to a successful university. . "We will utilize off campus people in the senate and ASUN and have them communicate with students off cam pus, on city campus, and east campus," Keating said.
