RULING
Continued from Page 1
February should have been
submitted to nied wit ion or
referred to the Student Advi
sors Hoard
(>dllo cited sections of the
l-.\ei utive Hides that govern
the ASI’O’s handling of pro
gram violations and of stn
dent program's internal
grievani es
However, the court ruled
that the complaint was not
an internal grievance be
i ause I.erma i s ' 'clerir a I
help'' and not an elected
member of the IKC Also, the
nature of her complaint did
not warrant mediation
"Ms I.erma ' s c h arge
didn't involve a simple dis
pule between two parties,
hut a charge of wrongdo
ing. the court said ''Medi
ation would he awkwardly
meffei tive in this situa
tion ' '
Although l.xec utive Rules
direct the ASl'O president
tu refer program violations
to a Student Advisory’ Hoard
for corrective action, the
court ruled that Hailey was
not obligated to follow this
procedure because no Stu
dent Advisory Hoard has
been appointed this year
A Iso. Kxec olive Rules
grant the1 president the au
thority to act on program
y iolations y\ ithout the SAH's
help when the problem in
vulves 11(1 budget notes the
court said
"While the problem did
not l n y o I y e 11- (I bud ge t
notes but rather meeting
notes, the rule nonetheless
demonstrates an intent to
make abuses of III proce

ai tion. llu‘ court said
Tin- i onrl also rejot led
('.nlson s argument that rules
for the 11 (; investigation pro
i ess should have been (level
oped and approved in ai
c ordain e with Section r> of
the ('(institution
"Requiring the Kxei utive
to promulgate rules lielore
taking even,' important at:
tion would grind the wheels
of an already slow student
government to a halt," the
court said.
Aside from Briggs. jus
tices concurring in the opin

Baile\ said Tuesday he
was pleased by the court's
ruling and that his recom
mendation that the 11(1 vote
to remove Colson from the
( ommittee still stands
"\\e vc done our |ob; the
court's done it's job." he
said. "Now it's up to the
ll'C "
Bailev said the Kxecutive
would discuss the court's
rei otnmendation to adopt a
spe< ifii procedure tor inves
tigations.
But Colson said he was
considering options such us
appealing the court's deci
sum to University President
Myles Brand or seeking re
dress "outside the Universi

Although the i Destitution

been upheld. Colson said
