The organlzaticm. Fa mine Action Today! (F.A.T.) consists of persons from the campus and community, who are interested in continuing pro grams for the assistance of the East Pakistani people. During the first two meet ings, study committees were formed for the investigation of fund-raising and non-partisan political action feasable in this area. Ecological conditions In East Pakistan, as well as so cial, economic, and military conditions there, and immediate pathways for fund-raising and lobbying are among the topics which have been researched and discussed. As a result of these meetings, action is now being taken in the following areas: Firstly, funds will again be solicited from the college and community, to be channeled through OXFAM, Inc. (with the recommendation that a suitable program for birth control be (Continued to Page 3) each dorm, with each dorm dis tributing different color stickers. This will aid passed, with the word “de mand” being replaced with the word “request” in their first proposal. Their third proposal was soundly defeated. The issue of signing out for both male and female students who leave the campus on the weekend was raised. It was pointed out that on several spe cific instances college officials had been unable to locate stu dents on weekends when parents had called concerning an emer gency. The senate passed a re solution recommending that it be college policy that the stu dent assume the responsibility of informing someone, either suitemate or parent, of his or her destination where he or she can be reached, any time upon leaving the campus overnight. The purpose of the proposal is to absolve the college of the re sponsibility for the knowledge of a student’s whereabouts, and to place the responsibility with the individual student. In other business the senate passed a resolution requesting that the maintenance depart ment use only organic fertilizer, services a higher priority on the college campus; (3) The college drop general practi- cioners from the health ser vices so that in relation to doc tors the students act solely as citizens of Scotland County.” After considerable discussion their first two progosals were security in recovering stolen bicycles. There will be a brief inspection of each bicycle con sisting of a check of brakes and rear reflectors. The rules that were passed are as follows; (1) No bikes will be allowed on the porch of the College Union, (2) Lanes will be marked on the causewalk that bikes must stay in, (3) Cyclists will be prohi bited from using the ramp at the end of the causewalk--instead all cyclists will be required to use the sidewalk going up to the Vardell building, (4) All cyclists who ride at night must have a head li^t, (5) No bicycles will be allowed in any building at any time. No exact date was set for the implementation of these rules, but the date willbe wide ly publicized when it is decided. These rules will be enforcedby security officers and judicial action will be handled by the Traffic Court. Next, Hunter Watson and Rex McGuinn requested and were granted permission to speak. They said that although they were on the Health Services Committee, they would like to address the Senate as individual students. They then proceeded to make three proposals. (1) “The Senate demand that the administration publish by De cember 10 a statement on their attitude on the condition of the health services, its priority in relation to the college as a whole, and its future status; (2) The Sensfte make it a point to push toward making the health Zero Population Group {eaffirms Goals, Plans BY STEVIE DANIELS In the first meeting this year le purpose of ZPG was re lated for tiie new members, rtiich is—to make as many peo- le as possible aware of the cologlcal crisis which we face, ^rou^ communications media, lobbying, and placing pressure jn unecological organizations to reform.

PAT PAULSEN Spring Registration To Eliminate Lines^ Hassle Paulsen’s Comedy Scheduled By PSU Humorist Pat Paulsen, who entertains at Pembroke State University on Nov. 17,1971, has been termed by critics as both the Mark Twain and the Will Rogers of the 1970’s. His local visit is part of a college and university tour called “Pat Paulsen Looks At The 70’s”. He will discuss politics, ecology, sex, drugs and other subjects of national interest, utilizing a variety of visual aids. St. Andrews students are in vited to attend this “lecture,” which is to be held in the Pem broke gymnasium at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are on sale at the St. Andrews College Union host desk for $1.50. Mr. William E. Pauley, Col lege Registrar, announced last week that registration for spring term would not take place between November 4-10, as in dicated in the College Calen dar, but instead would be held during the period December 1-7. This action was approved by the Education Policies Com- ,mlttee and the Faculty at their November meetings. The change was made for several reasons. The original idea behind the November re gistration period was to have but one registration period for both winter and spring terms. However, it was found that a November registration for win ter term would be too late, con sidering the needs fbr plane re servations, hotels, and other arrangements for the interna tional programs; for the book store’s November 1 deadline on ordering books for January; and for the applications from pos- sibly-Interested students from other schools. So the winter registration was moved back to October. It then became less important when the second per iod was to be held. The December date was ar rived at after the realization of several considerations; one, the amount of time needed for the spring schedule to be built and analyzed by the division and program chairman. In order to avoid conflicts, and its revi sion; two, the deslreability for the students to have several days between the time of the availability of the schedule and the time of registration when final decisions are to be made; and three, the fact the regis tration procedures were not yet finalized. Mr. P auley explained the pro cedure as it now staitds. In con sultation with his faculty advi sor, the student Is to complete his series of course registra tion card^ which are to be turned in to the registrar's office during the period Decem ber 1-7. He will thai be given an IBM receipt card to betaken to the computer center for val idation—anytime between Dec ember 1 and February 1—show ing that the student’s personal information IBM cards have been updated. The student is to pay his bills to the business of fice again anytime December 1 and February 1—where he will be given another receipt. Upon presentation of both receipts to the Student Personnel Ser vices Office, the student’s L D. card will be updated, I. e., given a SPRING 1972 sticker. This Is the completion of re gistration. The students’ class schedule print-outs will be placed in their mailboxes. Stu dents needing to drop-add, or those not registered in Decem ber, can expect to face the usual lines on February 1st.
