PAGE FOUR Collegiate A Look at Our Leaders ByCIIL( KHKRKIN(; KDITOK'S NOTK; in a series of interviews of the S(iA elected officers, the Collegiate is at tempting to inform students of what their officers have been doing and what they plan to do. This is the second article in that series. This week, we gave George Murphy the same opportunity that we gave Don Berry last week. That is, we gave him the opportunity to describe and evaluate himself as a student leader. (Jeorge was eager to undertake this assignment, and I think that our interview was a very enlightening one. Besides being Vice-President of the SGA, George is also Speaker of the Senate. It is in that job of Senate leadership that George feels he has been most effective. Robert’s Rules, a system of Parliamentary Procedure, has been a major factor in the operation of the Senate. Originally, George was opposed to the adoption of this system, feeling that it was too formal and complicated. Since it has been adopted, however, he has studied it at length, and believes that it can be used ef fectively. The only problem with it, says George, is that many of the class representatives are not I George T.

Consequently, he is heading a new committee whose purpose is to familiarize the senators with Robert’s Rules before the Senate first convenes. George is optimistic that this will help to eliminate a great deal of the “communication gap" that he feels may have been hindering progress in the Senate. Another project that George is currently working on, and considers noteworthy, has to do with the new SGA constitution. Most of the campus organizations do not have in dividual copies of the con stitution, yet are expected to be aware of it’s requirements in such areas as charter renewals. As a result, many organizations have not applied to have char ters renewed. George hopes to correct this situation by making available to every campus organization a copy of the constitution, and also by adopting a “form type” charter renewal application which would be much easier to fill out. 1 asked George what he hoped to see accomplished during the rest of his term as vice- president, and what did he see as his role in bringing this about. His immediate answer was that he wanted to see 'student government utilized to it’s full potential as a servant of the student body. He believes that it does have a great deal of potential, but that it will take a lot of work and determination to reach that goal. How does he intend to work towards this? Evaluation, says George. “Evaluation is imperative.” No one can improve unless he reviews his errors before he plans his future. George sees his role here as an organizer and a “resource man.” In other words, he can’t do it alone. He is open to any and all suggestions and is willing to volunteer his exj)ertise to help bring about progress for A.C. “I am really concerned,” he says, “about the people here. I take my job personally: I feel responsible for the successess and the failures.” Is he satisfied with his per formance as SGA Vice- President? yes and no. “Once I made an A-l- on a paper, yet I still saw a great deal of room for improvement on it.” I think that pretty well answers the question!
