Vandiver called the new senate a “miles tone in the ongoing annals of the University. “The University is a market place of ideas,” he said. “No con cept is sacred, all solutions are debatable.” Carl Shafer, a senate steering committee member, said the 85 senators average 16.2 years of teaching and 89 percent of the members are tenured, he said. After deliberation, the senate voted Mel Dodd, senator from the Sterling C. Evans Library, as temporary speaker. The senate will hold a busi ness meeting May 11 to elect a permanent speaker and to appoint two committees. One committee will be a by-laws com mittee and the second will be a personnel and budget com mittee. The by-laws committee will formulate the operational rules of the senate. The personnel and budget committee will de termine the allocation of its $40,000 budget, Walter Buen- ger. Liberal Arts senator and a member of the steering commit tee said. A committee to ease the tran sition from the Academic Coun cil to the Faculty Senate was dis cussed, but not approved. The Academic Council will be re named the Academic Adminis trative Council and will deal with administrative concerns and the senate will review University wide policies concerning faculty and students. - im n©ir Miller 12-Pack Bottles iTEEAfl © 1982 Cibco Importing Co..

A quiet forcefulness wrought from purpose transcends to the creations. Collins, in turn, has been hewn from the Texas Hill Country he knows so well. Each is paradoxical-simple as sunlight; complex as the hawk’s wing. Jeep has a country boy heart and an eye cultivated for the arts. The metals he uses-copper, bronze, brass and silver-make his handcrafted jewelry sur prisingly affordable for gift giving.
