Yesterday our beloved Student Council held their semi-annual General Meeting. Only 52 people made it. A quorum is l50. '

I say we came close. Let's face it. Students l are as interested in going to those meetings as Ireland is in the Queen. Now since nothing can ' ' ‘ ' , ‘ , be done at those meetings except for discussion ‘ INSTEAbogYOU ‘WELLmlOWNI . . - Milt; someone is being ripped off. fauﬂ%$:jgﬁle WE mums“. ______ r I I .. '

‘ v.“ . The people who are losing out on general meetings are not the l ,432 students who failed to go a (I hear there is a lot of flu around) but t‘ne 52 who showed up. They don't have to’be there.

In the Student Union constitution a quorum is defined as l0% of tlne student body. That is a very nice figure but I don't belive that l0% of the students have any desire in the world to go to a general meeting. 'Ihe trick in getting around this

is in the definition of a quorum. V . , . _ I ~ It should be put in the new cmstimtion ' I ll 0 I ‘ ' that a quorum is l0% of the student body but that ' if the required 10% are not present, the meeting , _> _ is iijPmed an] d agother onet‘mérsl’ic be hag THURSDAY-.DECENBER 1133??
