'If you elect me, I promise .. / AGS PRESIDENTIAL ASPIRANTS SAY (Kd. Not*-: Monday, AOS party mcmbers*wlll decide, through Indi- I vldiml ballot, wimin they want as the AHUO presidential candidate.! So we are opening these columns in today’s Kmerald to the three candi dates AGS President I,nrry Dean Indicated would be running. We told each of the candidates they had about ZOO words In which to tell our readers Just about anything they desired. We trust tlielr statements below—on Issues, suggestions, qualifications—will ufford some cri terion for Monday's choice between candidates.) 'A Unified Campus Drive../ By Mike Lally With this Opportunity for free arid individual expression of my personal vIcwh for the forthcoming Associated Greek .Students primary election, I unhesitatingly state my policy for better student govern ment. M1KK I.AIXY Throughout the year student living organizations are constantly plagued with drives for donations of all forms. I feel that this school should have a uni fied campus drive to raise funds for the express purpose of providing funds for these charities. This could he accomplished by having an all campus vaudeville, dance, etc., at the beginning of fall term as is done ut other schools. This spring the Honor Code will be presented to the Oregon students for their acceptance. I believe that this issue is of great importance to the Uni versity for furthering the goals of better scholar ship and in creating a "esprit de corps” within our school. The rally board should be the core of university activities. This board's activities ure the reflection of student spirit, and it should have a comprehensive program controlled by individual students and their government. The office of president of the Associated Students of the University of Oregon should be directed towards encouraging the individual stu dents to add his ability to the building of a conscious university, a truly progressive student government. The successful completion of this slated policy represents to me the concrete route to the elusive and long sought for goal of a less apathetic student body. If the leader ship of such un undertaking were presented to me I would endeavor to establish, through this plan, a students’ university. 'AGS Primary Is a Big Step../ By Pal Dignan I would like to qualify my nomination for AGS student body presi dent with a statement of policy on various campus issues. 1. The new AGS primary is a big step towards better student govern ment. Next year, I would like to see AGS go further along this line. i auvocaic an aus primary wnerc every candidate would be selected by popular vote. 2. Some feel AGS could not adequately do this because of the complex primary which would result. If this were the case, X would suggest that the "pri mary election plan presented to the senate by Vir ginia Wright la- considered carefully in light of what it can do towards greater interest in a better gov ernment. 3. Many students and faculty members feel that we are burdened by the multiplicity of welfare drives. We have annually at least six separate drives for funds. The senate recognizes only one officially, WSSF. I feel, and such a plan has been considered PAT DIGNAN and discussed by the Emerald and Student Union Board, that a fund can be set up which would result in just one drive each year. What . would this plan accomplish? Less drives and duplication of effort. Drives would be placed under the control of the senate. For after all, if we now have student committees actively handling these drives, should they not be under the direction of our student government? This function belongs to the Senate. 4. I am for a Mill Race Park. If the city will not provide funds, we will promote it through cooperation between the students and alumni. • 5. I am actively supporting the honor code by helping in the ori entation of the student body to the system. As yet, I am not com pletely for or against it. Such a plan is desirable only if the students want it. This is my unbiased opinion on campus issues. I am sincere and firm - in my convictions. On these grounds, I consider myself qualified to re ceive the AGS nomination for student body president. ' 'Fall Term Elections for Frosh../ By Bill Frye There are certain requirements I belive a student body president should meet. There are specific qualifications he should have. And there are definite ideas he should have in mind for carrying out his • iob. . BILL FKVE A primary requisite is experience—experience in student government and campus politics. No student body president inadequately prepared in this area could be the leader of effective student government. I think that the ASUO president should be just as adequately prepared in the academic field as he is elsewhere and even stronger here than in some other areas. He should be able to demonstrate that he can handle the time-consuming duties of his office while still showing well as a student in a university. An ASUO president should be a person that has completed an outstanding record in all areas of stu dent activities. He should be as well versed with the Student Union program and with student publications as he is .. with campus politics and committee work. At the same time, he should he a leader in all fields. His leadership should not be confined to one particular phase of student life because as a president he has to work and organize and lead in all its various phases. Above all, the ASUO president should be able to handle the tre mendous Job of public relations that he is responsible for. He should have a convincing manner of speaking, be able to win the confidence of those he meets and possess the ability to get things done through working with others. There are, finally, ideas I belive he should have that he would work to bring about. As a member of the ASUO senate I have already demonstrated my interest in an honor code for the University. I have already presented my idea for a student leadership training program. Before I leave student government here I also want to see fall term elections for the freshman class. Qualifications, ideas, demonstration. These are what I believe an ASUO president should be able to offer. These are the only things I would hope to win on.
