Dr. Vandenbosch's and the Patterson faculty's book on world events
since World War II.
I will also start at the beginning
of the fall semester to continue the
work and investigation of the possibilities of setting up a student book
exchange. This program would enable all students to obtain their books
at a much lower rate. The idea itself is not new, but it has not been
fully carried out.
An organization study will also
be enacted to find out if and where
campus groups have overlapping,
duties. A campus activities committee could also be formed to coordinate all campus activities.
2. "In order to insure a maximum of
based upon
mutual respect of the students and
faculty, . . ." propose that the election procedure as stated in the constitution be amended to the effect
that the officers of the congress be
elected each spring by the entire
student body so that the officers truly
represent the feelings of the entire
student body.
I will also try to encourage more
people to run as representatives of
their college when the general representative election is held in the
fall so more interest will be created.
Furthermore, I will propose to
amend the constitution to allow for
a referendum provision which would
give all students equal representation
in Student Congress. A referendum is
an issue submitted to the public for
approval or disaproval by providing
for a yes or no vote on whether or
not the individual voter wants a particular act passed. The results of the
vote would be binding upon the cono
gress,
o

A referendum would give all students equal representation by providing that:
Where campus opinion or sentiment is strong on an issue, Student
Congress may submit it to the students for approval.
Students may petition to the congress for a referendum when they can
obtain enough signatures. The number of names required for petition
should be sufficient to prevent harassment by a small dissatisfied minority on trivial issues or on issues
which would not ordinarily warrant
investigation by the Student Congress.
Student Congress, knowing this
check on its power exists, will be hesitant to act against the general interest of the students at large.
3. "In order to promote the integrity of the University, . . ." actively support the administrations
diligent effort to increase the academic standards of the University.
Also, an invitation will be submitted to each of the candidates for
the office of United States senator
from Kentucky to appear jointly at a
public forum next fall in order to
debate the issues or their campaign.
The candidates for Governor of Kenill also
tucky in the 1963 election-be issued similar invitations.
"With the realization that an effective student government can best acI ask you
complish these aims,
to support me as the best possible
candidate for the office of president
of the University of Kentucky Student Congress.

My primary interest and effort will
be to stimulate interest from all the
students fn the University and allow
them to have a means of expressing
their views.
One of the objects which will be
studied will be a complete analysis
of the present Student Congress Constitution; an administrative reorganization terminating in a more effective constitution with more coordination between both the students and
the administration.
As was stated before, our University is the only university in the
States that
United
allows students
to
help formulate policy concerning themselves. There are
seven standing Fac- ulty committees and
I numerous other com-- I
IP
1 mittees. The students
are allowed two memLANE
bers on each of these committees
which govern student relations. Here
is an excellent opportunity for the students to have a say in what is to be
policy for the University.
One aspect which I feel is lacking
in the University is the absence of
important figures speaking to an entire student convocation. There is no
reason why we couldn't have, say,
Adlai Stevenson or Sen. Fullbright.
Different departments in the different
colleges have speakers, but the entire
student body does not have this opportunity.
One important project which I
shall start on is a study in conjunction with the Kentucky Ceneral Assembly and the Legislative Reference
Commission in relation to establishing comparable academic standards

in the different colleges and universities.
Too many students lose a great
deal of their credits when transferring
their credits to our University or when
just transferring their credits from
one college to another college within
our University. It would be a study
of the curriculum requirement of all
colleges. This applies particularly to
the Departments of English and
Mathematics. This program would
not be able to be finished in my term,
but the groundwork would be laid
for the program.
Another prevalent problem on
campus is the parking problem. I
would like to see the Campus Improvement Committee work on this
problem. There are many ways of relieving some of the burdens of the
parking problem. For example, the
Infirmary is moving next fall to the
Medical Center.
What will be done with this old
building? Will it be torn down? If
so, why couldn't there be a parking
lot for students put there. And what
about the Social Sciences building?
When they move, why couldn't that
also be a student parking lot?
Another field of study will be to
recommend that sophomore students
be allowed to have registered cars on
campus. It is my understanding that
such proposals have already been
made. I would like to see this idea
carried out and put in effect as soon
as possible.
As also was mentioned earlier, I
plan to establish a foreign students
exchange. This would be a 'program
whereby a certain amount of students
would be allowed to study in some
foreign country for an amount of
time. At this same time there would
be the same amount of foreign students here at the University from
the country which we sent students
to study. This would be a program
in which the countries which we sent
students to, wouM be different each
year.
There are other ideas being considered, but are still in the theoretical
stage.

Student Congress is the only organization that represents all University of Kentucky students. I feel
it to be my duty to see that the
student recognizes what Student Congress can provide and do for him,
and I feel also that it would be my
duty as president to provide through
the congress an effective way of promoting the welfare of the individual
student.
A student congress is ineffective
and of little use if it only represents
a small preselected group of the student body. If the students elect me
as their president, I want each and
everyone to feel that he is a part of
his student government.
I want them to elect representatives who support their views, and I

want the students to be continually
assessing the worth of Student Congress, pointing out its faults and showing how it can be improved.
I feel that some amendments to
the constitution are desperately needed in order to improve the functioning of the congress. I was very dis
heartened to see that
a mere quorum was
ia
present at the nomi- j
I 3 nating meeting, and
''7h
many meetings are
carried on without a
quorum.
I therefore
propose that if a representative misses
NEWKIRK
more than three meetings he be dismissed from his office as representative and that his vacancy be filled at
the end of each semester.
