The new Student Association
officers were installed Monday
night and proceeded to defeat a
proposal to change party
guidelines. The senate also heard
reports from the library committee
and the Pub Control Board.
The new SA President, Mary
Trunko. presented a proposal
from Rice Memorial Center
Director Marty Vest that new
party guidelines be adopted. Vest
feels that the current requirement
that two Campus Police officers be
present at any party- which will
serve over 600 people is
inadequate. Vest thinks that three
to four Campos are necessary fora
large party. Ed Keller, the Baker
President, commented on the
proposal, "We don't feel it (the
increased campos proposal) is
necessary or needed." The
Hanszen President, Ricky
Morefield, cited the cost of a
campo as $52 per party. Bobo
Canby, the Wiess President, said
an increase in the number of
officers required at a party would
just result in less money being
available for other aspects of the
party. The SA overwhelmingly
approved a motion condemning
Vest's proposal as unnecessary and
an added financial burden for the
colleges.
Greg Wortham, an undergrad-
uate member of the library
committee, reported that the
committee's proposal for a
mandatory freshman library class
has been squelched. The library
committee plans instead to

recommend an expansion of the
present Jones Library Research
course. Outgoing SA President
Lynn Lednicky reported that
University Librarian Dr. Samuel
Carrington plans to keep the one
a.m. library closing time through
next year's fall semester.
Lednicky, a member of the Pub
Control Board, also reported that
the Pub lost $1096 during
February. Lednicky stated, "The
loss should be of no concern." The
gameroom earnings of $2623
changed the Pub's loss to a gain.
Lednicky reported the Pub
Control Board is planning Pub
capital improvements with their
accumulated earnings.
Outgoing SA Internal Vice
President Dan Hu reported that
since TCU and DePaul use the
grade point average of students to
detrmine their commencement
honors, he would recommend Rice
continue their identical method of
awarding commencement honors.
The SA had directed Hu to look
into this matter in October 1981.
