Housing Issues Students Administration Parents The Student Senate called a special general election on open housing with the ballot including a yes-no vote, identification of the voter by sex, grade classification, and dorm resi- dency. Questions about specific poli- cies and restriction of privacy were included. Results were 8875 in favor and 12.'Zn opposing thevmeasure. More fresh- men and sophomores voted than any other group, and considering that this classification of women is required to live in the dorms, their opinion should be carefully considered. 26 w . N,,..,., - ,M . ,- - Ts, Six of the seven Regents of Education talked with 400-500 students and faculty members during a special Question 4 session on open housing. Richard Battey, of the Board of Re- gents, judged the results of the student poll on open housing not to be substan- tial enough to support change. He felt that there were more facets involved however, he did concede that the regents felt the students had a point. He resolved that the University relies on the general populous for its support, and because this support can be terminated if deci- sions are incorrect, other people are enti- tled to be heard. -Q nw nu in Wt - , -it it . .

The results indicat- ed that the parents were in definit disagreement with the proposal. Eve though their reactions were generally negative, substaniation of this view was varied a great deal. The mos' prevalent parental worry was the in- vasion of privacy.
