The group's function will be limited to that of a purely in vestigative body In a memoran dum to the Student Conduct Com mittee. ASUO President Scott Farleigh said. "I have conferred with the Discrimination Commit tee and it is our opinion that the I original request for the ASl'O | Committee to act as both an in j vestigative body and a court is not consistent with due process of the court system." Farleigh described the future function of the Committee as one of “compiling reports, making recommendations, or offering as sistance to concerned groups or persons." Professor Scott Nobles, acting chairman, reminded members of the Student Conduct Committee that. "This does not necessarily close the matter of including dis crimination as a group offense under the Code.” The question of whether or not discrimination becomes a group offense will be decided at the next faculty meeting. If it does become a group offense it will be under the jurisdiction of the Student Conduct Committee. Nobles commented that the Conduct Committee is already overburdened and could not han die the large amount of cases which are likely to arise. It was the general consensus of the Conduct Committee that if the faculty does vote to include discrimination as a group offense, the Committee will be compelled to create a minor tribunal specifi cally equipped to handle such cases.
