The student bill of rights section was proposed by council member Bill Snodgrass. Snodgrass suggested the bill along with other changes, in a revised" version of the Judicial Reform document. The proposed student bill of rights was based on a similar code in use at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Runge and Stephenson questioned the propriety of placing a student bill of rights in the Judicial Reform document, "It would be more legitimate if placed at the appropriate place in the Constitution," Stephenson said. Council Member Rad Kivette suggested that the bill of rights would be more binding if placed in the document because it would be ratified by the Chancellor, Faculty Council and students. The Constitution was not ratified by a three-party agreement. Runge replied that the Constitution of the student body cannot be violated by the faculty and administration. Runge also criticized the proposed student o E xam decision set The Faculty Council passed a resolution Friday to drop the requirement of written final exams in courses numbered 200 or above.

Snodgrass suggested that the imperfections in the student bill of rights be corrected and that it be reconsidered before the Committee made its final decision. After the proposal was defeated.
