This board would represent the student opinion on tenure and termination of faculty members. Being a judge on Student Court the past two years, I have seen a great deal of improvement in BECOME A this branch of government. However, the court has much work yet ahead of it. First, the Student Bill of Rights, Responsibilities and Conduct is very foggy and somewhat paradoxical at parts. Since it is the court which works with the R-book more than any other group on campus, I believe it is this groups responsibility to completely review the R-book and implement the necessary changes (with the review and approval of the Assembly). Second, the court must work out the various legal complications in the open court proposal. It is my opinion that it is a students right to request an open court if he so desires. Third, the court must review the reasons and procedures for the appeal of cases. This again is a very foggy area which needs to be made clear. With regards to the Student Center, one of the complaints I frequently heard was that the Board MARCHING S • C i E T i of Directors was a small family unit whose election of new officers was not objective but predetermined. I helped correct this by pro­ posing five amendments to their constitution and by-laws in the Assembly this year, all of which Wednesday Men's Night were passed. Also, the Student Center was allocated $30,600 this year out of total budget allocations of $86,450, or just over 35% of the allocated funds. Before their budget is accepted $.05 Beer for next year, I would want a thorough review of where their funds went this year and what the returns to the student body were (how many ComeOne events were held, attendance at events, etc).
