There have been numerous resigna- tions, including the President, Vice President, Attorney Thank you. General, and Speaker of the House. Twenty-nine percent of our SGA are not returning to Council Chambers. The S. G .A. 's performance last semester fell far short of its potential. They were testing their new Constitution and their new two-house system. Although the number of people participating in student government increased, they seemed bogged down in their own bureaucracy. The S.G.A. was not totally ineffectual. Homecoming Weekend went well. The Town and College Relations Committee seemed to be off to a good start (the commit­ tee is now defunct). And the budget hearings, held last December during a joint session of the House and Senate, went smoother than any in recent history. · But the two-house system just did not work. While setting up a committee to study the funding of walking security, a female student was attacked here on campus; subsequently, the Office of Student Services began it again on their own.

(Photo by Kirk Van Dyke) of the student body. Also, there were vacant seats in both houses because of students' lack of interest in running for office. The two-house system might work in a school of 20,000 people, but here at Bridgewater, with less than 6,000, two bodies is simply too much bureaucracy. Outside the.
