(Continued from page 1) students, no representative body has control over its decisions. Thus nobody but the University president can override those de cisions. He asked why the ASUO Senate should not have this power since they represent the students. Eliminate Checks Dick Lawrence, SU Board chair man, felt that this would make the board little more than an ASUO Senate committee. Tarlow added that such a system would eliminate checks and balances now in effect. Sernas, on the other hand, con tended that review by the ASUO Senate would add checks and bal ances, and that as the board is now organized, there are none. He added that the SU Board is the only administrative body on campus whose student members are not appointed by the ASUO president and approved by the Senate. Finally, he said that all such administrative groups should be subject to review by some elective bodv. “The State Board of Higher Education is basically the same 1 kind of organization.” he said. ‘ and they are directly responsible to the Oregon Legislature.” The SU Board hearings will continue Thursday afternoon in the Student Union.
