      pub
      broke
      even
      despite
      poor
      attendance
      because
     
     
      of
      the
      low
      cost
      of
      overhead.
      The

      The

      evaluation
      of
      professors
      was
      dis-
     
     
      cussed.
      According
      it
      VP
      Internal
      Andrew
     
     
      MacPherson,
      a

      Sean
      Hennessey
      was
      struck
      in

      to.
      Two
     
     
      proposals
      were
      submitted
      for
      Senate
      review
      and
     
     
      turned
      down.
      A
      third
      was
      put
      on
      hold.
     
     
      MacPherson
      found
      that
      at
      other
      universities
      an
     
     
      anti-calendar
      was
      published
      yearly
      by
      the
      Stu-

      Union
      which
      gave
      independent
      student
     
     
      evaluations
      of
      each
      professor.
      It
      was
      generally
     
     
      agreed
      that
      there
      should

      the

      According
     
     
      to

      Bruce
      Davison,
      ‘“There

      to

      President
