Senate Meets
To Map Plans
For New Year
President of the SGA, Gary
Garlow, called the Oct. 1 meet
ing of the Senate to order and
the following business was trans
acted.
The first report came from
Dickie Moore, chairman of the
Athletic Commission, in which
he presented plans for the skat
ing party scheduled for Friday,
Oct. 5. He also reported that
plans are being made to form
a Monogram Club at Wesleyan.
Then Guy Rouse, chairman of
the Finance Commission, re
ported that progress is being
made in an attempt to organ
ize the financial and budget
structure 'f the SGA. He prais
ed the system adopted by The
Wesleyan Decree and announc
ed that aU the CommStsslons will
be set up in this manner
The staffs for the annual,
newspaper, and handbook were
then presented and approved by
the Senate. Rouse then asked
that all Commissions purchase
a journal from which reports
are to be given at Finance Com
mission meetings every two
weeks.
Wanda Exum, chairman of
the Social Commission, report
ed that a new juke-box had been
placed in the juke-box room. Be
cause of the expense of repair
ing and operating the old juke

the juke-box be sold and that
the money be applied on rent
for the first month on the new
juke-box. The motion was pass
ed. In a discussion following
the motion, the Senators debat
ed for and against the possi
bility of having the juke-box pay
for itself. It was decided that
during the first month the juke
box would play on free select
and that the number of students
using it and the condition of the
juke-box be considered when de
ciding whether or not a charge
would be made for its use.
The president urged the co
operation of the Senate and stu
dents in checking the announce
ments placed on the bulletin
board in the S. U. BuUding to
be used exclusively for SGA an
nouncements.

of day students and freshmen

sion, it was decided that in ac
cordance with the Constitution
that the nominations be on Oct
ober 2, and that the part of the
Constitution pertaining to the

tion committee. In high school,
he was member of the Student

JOAN LAMBERTH
Joan Lambei'th was recently
elected chairman of the Student

the Women’s Dormitory, Men’s

need interpretation.
Joan has held several offices

holding this position. Previous

Student Government Association
for three semesters, and served
as president of the Women’s
Dormitory for the last half of
the second semester, 1962. At
this time, she was also a mem
ber of the SLA.
Joan’s main goal is to be con
sistent in the decisions con
cerning the breaking of the
Campus Code, and dormitory
rules v/hich come before her.
She wants uniformity in the
manner in which each case is
handled.
Joan said she hopes “the stu
dents of Wesleyan will uphold
the principles stated in the
Campus Code, for these kinds of
rules are essential to any com
munity living. I hope the stu
dents will look on the Student
Life Association as a means of
upholding these principles.” i
