according to a statement
released by Kenneth R.
Williams. Chancellor of the
School. The acceptance of
co-ed visitation ends a
movement that started on the
campus nearly four years ago.
According to Chancellor
Williams although students
had asked for a co-ed
visitation policy in 1971. nc

to Chancellor Williams,
"it had not gone through the
proper channels."
On January 20. of this year
the Administrative Council
received a 12 page proposal
tor co-ed visitation. The
council told S.G.A. representatives
the proposal had to be
sent to the^Director of Student
Affairs. It would then be heard
on the third Monday in
February at the council's
regularly scheduled meeting.
Afterwards the Administrative
Council would decide what
action to take and whether or .
not to send the proposal to the
Board of Trustees, (scheduled
to meet in March).
Students, however, felt that
the administration was acting
too slowly on the proposal and
