books. He would plan to present a
bill next year that would change the
name of student government to Stu
dent Association since it is not func
tioning as a governmental body.
Maverick said he feels closed meet
ings are necessary in some situation
because of the way the government
is set up. The way the closed session
came about was unethical, but the
matter required a closed session, he
said. “The student body has to trust
student government in certain
things.”

the students’ opinion to administra

dents have done in the past. He said
it is important to have someone stand
by the students. Maverick would like

Platform: Smith thinks the student
body president should be more than

Platform: Van Winkle thinks the
president should be the liason be

the Q-drop system throughout the
University and look into the feasibil

both tuition and price increases. On
the matter of closed sessions. Van
Winkle said the senate has a right to
close a session if the nature of the
subject is worthy. “Matters which
are delicate, sensitive or effect indi
viduals are appropriate reasons to
close a session. The reasons have to
be justified, however.”
