The General Student Senate i.s the co-ordinat- ing student legislative body of the University. It represents the interests and ideas of the student body and takes action on those ideas w hich may benefit the campus. The members of the Senate arc popularly elected representatives from major campus or- ganizations and student wards. The Senate ' s work is carried out through an integrated com- mittee system. The committees are composed of students and faculty. Class elections, Spring elections, Maine Day, and other campus activi- ties are set up by the Senate in co-ordination with other campus organizations. Senate meet- ings are held twice monthly and all interested are welcome to attend. The constitution of the Senate is the guide used for the delegation of power and authority. This constitution outlines the activities and goals of Senate work. Much of the Senate ' s time goes toward elect- ing committees which head various drives and campus activities. Major projects have been the setting up of an Efficiency Committee as a co- ordinating aid to all other committees elected by the Senate; investigation of possibility of mem- bership in the United States National Student Association; and investigation of po.ssiblc means to improve campus elections. Mr. Gerald Grady of the History and Go ern- mcnt Department is Advisor to the General Student Senate. 20
