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

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.
Among the proposals Winters
