conentionls, rallies, or any campaign activities that would
       further the interests of a political party or of a candidate or
       candidates for public office. This is not to be construed as
       prohibiting the appearance of political candidates at meetings
       of registered student organizations which are open in attendance
       only to students. faculty and staff of the University, and which
       are not open to the general public. Further, the University may
       fromn time to tine invite candidates for public office to speak at
       U nive rs itv convriocations.

       'Political party' is defined as a voluntary association of
       persons formed and organized for the purpose of nominating or
       electing candidates for public office. This definition includes,
       but is not linited to. the meaning of ''political party' as
       defined in KRS 119. 010.

       Since the 30 days required between presentation and adoption of an
amiendmnent to the Governing Regulations had not elapsed by the date of the
December meeting, the proposed amendm-ient was not removed from the table at
that meeting. Since the proper time has passed since its original presentation,
President Singletary recommended that it now be removed from the table and
placed before the Board for action.

       Mr. Wendelsdorf stated his objection to the amendment since he felt there
was no justifiable reason for excluding community participation in political
meetings inasmuch as such participants were not excluded from athletics and
cultural events. President Singletary pointed out that Mr. Wendelsdorf's concern
was with the basic policy of the University which has been in effect for years and,
therefore. w-,as not pertinent to this particular amendment which had only the
effect of clarifying existing policy.

       Professor Sears moved that the proposed amnendment to Part XII, D of
the Governing Regulations (February 1972) as received at the Novenmber 21,
1972 meeting be remnoved from the table and adopted. His rmotion was seconded
bIy Mr. Griffin, and passed with only Mr. Wendelsdorf voting against it. (See

       I. Amendment to Governing Regulations Proposed (PR 5)

       At the request of President Singletary, Dr. Alvin L. Morris explained
that the proposed amendnment to Part X of the Governing Regulations was related
to the University's affirmative action program and additionally clarifies that an
applicant for a position in an educational unit shall not be discriminated against
because of race, color, religion, sex, ethnic origin or political beliefs.

       Mr. Sturgill mnoved that the proposed amendment be accepted for consider-
ation and action at the next meeting. His motion was seconded by Nlr. Iincaid,
and passed with no dissenting votes. (See PR 5 at the end of the Minutes,
