Discusses Own Procedure Senate OK's Bill Opposing Upcoming Ballot Measure By LARRY LANGE Emerald New* Editor The ASUO Senate took care of three of the five items on its agenda Thursday but got hung up on a discussion about its own procedure. A bill written by men's dormi tory representative Phil Barn hart, opposing the upcoming Bal lot Measure Number 2, passed the Senate by a vote of 12 to 0, with 4 abstentions. The bill op poses the effects of the Measure— to reduce the bonding capacity of the State Board of Higher Education by using profits from dormitory fees to finance new classroom and laboratory con struction in the state's colleges and universities. Barnhart, in presenting the bill, quoted the estimate of Board Chancellor Roy Lieuallen in say ing that the Measure would re duce the Board's bonding strength by approximately $30 million. Possible Fee Raise Barnhart said he could see a possible raise in dorm fees to augment funds in the future. A bill establishing a new sys tem of senator visitations was also passed. The new system es tablishes a rotating schedule for senate visitations, to enable sena tors to visit a greater number— and variety—of living organiza tions. "It would give people in living organizations a chance to hear more senators and more senate points of view,” said Scnator-at Large Greg Foote, author of the bill. "And it would give senators a chance to hear more points of view.” BUI Passed The bill passed 11-3-2, after having an amendment tacked onto it, which permits a senator to deviate from his visiting schedule whenever he so de sires. But Senate Chairman of Com mittees Chuck Pruitt reminded his colleagues that he was going to make them stick to the newly adopted rule. “Anything that we say that sounds like an order makes us sound weak if we don’t enforce it," he said, adding that he ex pected the Senate to meet this responsibility by p e r i o dically checking on itself. The Senate also approved ap pointments to ASUO departments and committees — something it tabled last week.

In the case of the later bill, the author, Erroll Ham mond, did not attend the meeting. Then came the questions about procedure, started by Senator-at Large Dave McCloskey, chairman of the Senate’s Academic Affairs Committee. McCloskey Objected McCloskey objected to the quick passage of bills during the Senate session, because he felt not enough time was allowed for senators to give proper considera tion to each. “It makes a farce of our pro ceedings that we have to make snap decisions,” he remarked. Women's Co-op representative Nancy Holmes observed that senators “hadn't thought about bills,” and she used last week's stadium proposal as an example. "Our purpose is not to get out bills,” she said. “It’s our respon sibility to think about bills.” So the Senate made a sort of gentlemen’s agreement to try and use notices of motion for the pur poses spelled out by McCloskey. Must Present Motion In order to make this procedure binding, however, the Senate’s Governing Committee must pre sent a motion to the Senate to adopt it into its by-laws. Following this agreement, five notices of motion were immedi ately served: • By Senator-at-Large Chuck Stout—to establish an ASUO Fis cal Affairs Committee, a stand ing committee to work on a year long basis on upcoming ASUO and SU-EdAc budget plan. • By Senator-at-Large Roger Leo—that the faculty accept a motion establishing a universal course evaluation, for all Univer sity schools and departments. • That the University adopt computer registration for the academic year 1967-68; and for the establishing of a joint ASUO Student Union Board newsletter, to relate all activities “in the student establishments.’’ There were nine senators ab sent from Thursday’s meeting: Alan Carter, Gary Feuerberg, Marvin Feuerberg, Ron Green man, Errol Hammond, Gene Ha zel, Sparky Petre, Rod Roth, and Mike Woodin.
