The House passes bills concerning campus life. HOUSE CARRIES OUT LEGISLATIVE DUTIES With more students on campus, govern- ment has become more important. The governmental body that is most closely related to the students is the House of Representatives. Through the representatives, criticisms are aired, opinions are voiced, suggestions are given, and general student feelings are heard. The House passes the lavvs and sets the campus regulations on such matters as dress code, parking fees, and other regulations having to do with the students. The offices in the House include the Speaker of the House, the Clerk, the Sergeant-at Arms, and the Chaplain. Election to the House is on a semester basis by popular vote. One representative is elected for every tvventy-five students in a class. The faculty and administration are also represented in the House.

The upper house of Congress is composed of two members from each state in the Republic. Senators from the Faculty, Administration, and each class make up this body, which meets in session each week in the Senate Chamber. Legislation which is passed must be approved by the House and the President of the Republic, just as it is in the United States Government. ln addition to its legislative powers as a part of Congress, the Senate has the right to confirm all judicial appoint- ments by the President. The Senate is led by Vice-President Jack lVlcCormick and President pro tempore Professor Keith Bell. A Chaplain, Clerk, and Sergeant-at-Arms are also elected to serve the group. r Because of its small size, the Senate is able to act with greater speed than the House. Each member is elected for a full year by popular vote of his state. Senators Metz and Lawrence contemplate a bill before Congress.
