Rebuttal to Pearson Administrators Discuss Value of Grad Student By CATHY NEVILLE Academic Affairs Editor Liberal arts students from schools with a graduate student body have greater academic suc cess when they try to gain ad vanced degrees.

The position of graduate stu- j dents within the state system was ' questioned at Saturday's session ; ot the State Legislature.

ATO Sanctions Flemming Okays Action By RON COWAN Kmerald News Editor President Arthur Flemming authorized Wednesday Inter-Fra ternity Council Tribunal sanc tions against Alpha Tau Omega fraternity for their actions at a Nov. 2 house dance. ATO was found guilty by the Tribunal of violating the 1FC constitution. They also are be ing investigated by the Facul ty-Student Conduct Committee for individual violations of the Stu dent Conduct Code. Group sanctions, which will go into effect immediately, will in clude indefinite probation con sisting of no social functions and loss of rushing and pledging priv ileges. The conduct committee will continue their investigation of possible violations of the code on the part of individuals, said Flemming. The committee does not have the power to impose group sanctions and these must be decided by Flemming. The President said, "any pro ceedings resulting from this in vestigation will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Student Conduct Code. “The penalties which have been imposed on Alpha Tau Omega fraternity as a group will have no bearing one way or the other on the handling and disposition of individual cases,” he said. Tribunal action was voluntary and had to be authorized by Flemming to become effective. It is still undecided what authority IFC Tribunal has under the pew code. The President commented that “Again, I want to commend the Inter-Fraternity Council Tribun al for the manner in which they have handled this case.” Tribunal found ATO guilty of violating IFC liquor consump tion rules, taking girls into the living area and ignoring “moral and ethical principles” during the dance on fraternity premises. The conduct committee, which has been investigating the case for two weeks, is interviewing individuals involved with the case. Tribunal sanctions are to be re viewed by the group within two weeks of the end of winter term, at which time ATO will report on the result of the measures. Other measures decided re quire ATO to sponsor speakers at their chapter from the Uni versity and fraternity commu nity, and submit a report of the case to the ATO national of fice with a request that they send an officer to instruct the group in their role as a chapter. The Tribunal also recommend ed that any violation of the spir it or letter of this decision will result in the suspension of the ATO chapter. of state graduate students. In the story carried in Tues day's Emerald, Pearson was quoted as saying, "We are going to have to decide whether high er education is going to be for graduate students or for those who have no higher education.” At least three University offi cials feel that the graduate stu dent body is a valuable part of the University. Patton, Jarold KiefTer, special assistant to the president, and Clifford Con stance. University registrar, made some observations on the conse quences of a graduate program to the University in separate in terviews with The Emerald Wed nesday. Enrollment Increases Constance set the current grad uate enrollment at 1.893 This is a 19 per cent increase over grad uate enrollment at the University last year. He observed that this enroll ment has been increasing very quickly for several years but said that it will probably level off and not continue to grow at the present rate. Upon enrollment, graduate and research assistants pay a spe cial fee which includes the build ing and incidental fees but not the usual tuition cost In effect. "This is paying them for their services just as if the University issued them a check at the end of each month,” explained Con stance. Not Applicable He said that out-of-state fees are not applied to graduate stu dents because they are regarded as a valuable part of the student body and are encouraged to at tend the University in this way. He added that he believes uni versities throughout the nation ' Continued on page 3) Parliamentarian Proposes Rules For Senators By CHUCK BEGGS Emerald Staff Writer The adoption of a set of standing rules for the operation of the ASl’O Senate and a physi cal revision of the ASUO Consti tution are suggested by Barry Winters, recently appointed Sen ate parliamentarian. Winters told The Emerald Wednesday that "Robert’s Rules are not designed for a delibera tive organization, as Robert him self states.’’ He said that the American Institute of Parliamen tarians has had considerable dis cussion over the fact that Robe-t’s Rules are now "outmoded by many standards; they are too complex and are not sufficient for a group such as a student sen ate.” Wants Standing Rules Winters hopes to draw up a set of 10 or 12 permanent stand ing rules by which the Senate can conduct business, and present them for ratification within the next few weeks. "There are two or three rules now in effect in the senate which hinder the introduction of mo tion to the floor.” he said. “I hope to replace these meth ods with ones which will allow for a more free and efficient movement of business,” he said.
