DAVIS, HEFLIN, MCGLINN EXPRESS VIEWPOINTS
Dottie Davis
I hope that each student, whether
she be an officer or not, will feel
her responsibility after the coming
elections. We need to realize that
student government is not merely
government for us by us. Students
must talk and express their views
representatives must represent
those who have elected them, and
officers must listen and officiate
accordingly. With co-operation like
this, Student Government would be
more effective. Every year we hear
that the student body should be
more informed; I think student of
ficers need to be more informed
about our opinions. This job is up
to us.
If organizations are ineffective,
why? We need to find the prob-’
lem, solve it, and begin to support
the different activities on campus.
We need to be active. Committees
from Legislative Board should con
tinue to involve more people—as
many as possible.
The President must keep Student
Government running effectively and
emciently. With her board, she de
cides how this can best be done.
Representing the junior class as
their president, I have served on
Legislative Board this year. Last
year I was hall president.
Ellen Heflin
Student Government has an ex
cellent opportunity in the following
year to widen the opportunities for
greater student participation and
responsibility. To do this, I am in
favor of a continuation of such
actions as the recently enacted re
moval of the “F” system and the
addition of two extra overnights for
freshmen. I would also urge a re-
evaluation of the present classifi
cation system and revision of the
freshman evening engagement regu
lation.
The Executive Board should act
as a coordinator to communicate
between the Legislative and Judi
cial Boards; I would like to see the
Executive Board as a meeting
ground for problems which arise in
Legislative and Judicial matters.
Communication between the faculty,
administration, and students should
be strengthened. The faculty
should be informed of student
opinion concerning academic affairs,
as should students of faculty view
points.
The President of Student Govern
ment can exercise an important
function in reflecting student and
faculty opinion to the Legislative
Board. The President should be
available at specific times to hear
suggestions and opinions from stu
dents and faculty concerning the
work of Student Government.
Student Government is only as
strong as each student makes it
through her interest, cooperation,
and enthusiasm in the various acti
vities. Through a more effective
means of communication and stu
dent interest, campus life and our
Student Government as a whole can
benefit.
As a. freshman, I served as trea
surer of the class. During my so
phomore year, I was house presi
dent of Clewell Dorm, and this year
I have served as Secretary of the
Judicial Board and as a member of
the Executive Board. I have also
worked with faculty and students
as a member of the Symposium
Committee.
Wendy McGlinn
As a candidate for the office of
President of Student Government,
I would particularly like to see
more students become interested
and active in Student Government
and campus organizations. In order
to accomplish this I would first,
encourage students to attend Legis
lative Board as observers. Second,
I would investigate the possibility
of having students serve on some
faculty committees, for instance the
Calendar and Class Attendance
Committees. Third, I would like to
establish a program to draw more
students, particularly freshmen into
organizations second semester when
they have determined how much
time they can devote to extra curri
cular activities. Fourth, I believe
that more students should be hold
ing responsible positions and would
recommend an evaluation of the
point system to determine whether
it permits a maximum number of
students to hold office.
Finally, I would like to see more
students attend conferences such as
State Student Legislature, FOCUS,
and NSA Regionals. I would en
courage increased communication
with other colleges with the possi
bility of establishing a program for
exchanging student representatives
for several days to study the me
thods of other student governments.
These and other programs' would,
I hope, stimulate activity on cam
pus and interest in the world “be
yond the square”.
I have served on various commit
tees established by Legislative
Board as a delegate to both Na
tional and Regional NSA Confer
ences. I am President of Humani
ties and program chairman of
IRC.
