The Student Government Association is an integral, necessary and important part of Ithaca College. Its two divisions, the Executive Board and Student Congress, are critical representative bodies that should reflect the views of its constituents. , However, there are obstacles at all levels that curtail their effective­ ness. Starting at the base, there is widespread abuse by Congress Representatives of the attendance policy. At the top, the Executive Cleared by Bush SUd~t Board cannot get their candidates confirmed by the Representatives for Cabinet positions. ~ 1>epartment .censors The Constitution states clearly that any Representative of Congress ~ with more than two unexcused absences per semester "shall be dismissed from Student Congress."
