campus matters will be scheduled
on Tuesday when these programs
are requested and desired. Some
flexibility will be allowed in sche
duling Tuesday and Thursday pro
grams.
Since there may be several
periods when assemblies will not be
scheduled, the number of cuts for
both Tuesday and Thursday will be
reduced from five per semester to
four per semester.
Planning for Tuesday programs
will be coordinated through the
Assembly Committee and will be
announced in adequate time so the
excuse “I didn’t know” will not be
acceptable.
Attendance of all students will be
required for first and last assem
blies of the year and at the instal
lation of student officers. The tra
dition of senior attendance in cap
and gown at certain assemblies will
be continued.
