The original deadline for Spring 1973 Student Senate Election entries was extended one week at the request of the Student Liberation Party which had difficulty in qualify- ing its original slate of five. An amendment to the Senate Constitution was necessary to allow the postponement. The Independent Bulldog platform pledged the con- tinuation of party weekend, formation of student inquiry teams and further liberalization of interdorm visitation. The Student Liberation Party's platform consisted of more direct and influential student voice, University approved housing and regular student-administration meetings. The third party, Unity and Individuality, had improved recreation facilities, a revised meal ticket program and ex- tended phone hours among their platform items. The week prior to Senate elections the Independent Bulldog Party swept class elections and was the only party to have all of its candidates meet the qualifications before the March 28 deadline. On April 12 the Independent Bulldog Party swept all of- fices. electing Ernest Maune head of the new Senate. Senate Extends Deadline For Spring Elections; IB Sweeps Offices 27
