In its meeting on Halloween
night, the UNC-G Student
Senate heard the second reading
of several pieces of legislation,
including the Elections Board
Policy, and approved the budget
of four campus organizations.
Three by-law changes,
sponsored by Betsy Miller,
chairman of the Elections Board
were tabled until next week's
meeting when they will be
brought to a vote. The Elections
Board Policy was also tabled
until next week.
Senator Tim Connolly
questioned why the
Appropriations Board was not
submitting its report. He stated
Painter To Visit
N.C. Republican candidate for governor, Jim Holshouser, talks
with students and answers questions at the rally held in Cone
Ballroom Wednesday night.
Students Favor
Limiting Amendment
In a recent political survey
taken on the Constitutional
Amendment concerning the
voting age and the age limit for
office holders. 435 students
were in favor of the amendment,
and 219 were against it.
Several articles have been
written concerning this
amendment in an attempt to
make sure the student
understands what he is voting
for or against. The amendment
does not give the student the
right to vote. Students have
already been given this right by
another Federal Amendment.
The new amendment keeps
the 18-21 hear old from running
for elective office. If the reason
for voting yet for the
amendment is the fear of losing
the right to vote, students can
realize.
Steve Underwood, President
of SGA, said "We hope that if
this fear of losing your right to
vote has been the reason for
students to vote yes for the
amendment, please change you
mind and vote NO on November
7 to this constitutional
amendment."
The Elliott Hall Fine Arts
Committee is bringing the year's
first artist to the UNC-G campus
this week. Alice Neel, a noted
American realist painter from
New York City, will be giving a
slide lecture Sunday and
critizing student art Monday
before returning to her home.
Ms. Neel was born in
Pennsylvania and studied at the
Philadelphia School of Design
(now Moore Institute). She has
had one-man exhibitons at the
Contemporary Arts Gallery,
ACA Gallery, and Graham
Gallery.
Absences Excused
Many students have been
deciding whether to be present
for classes or to return home to
vote on November 7. Some
students have requested that
exams not be given on election
day, and that their attendance in
class not be strictly observed.
Stanley L. Jones, Vice
Chancellor for Academic Affairs,
is agreeable to students returning
home to vote. He pointed out
that classes are not to be
suspended on election day or the
days immediately preceding and
lollowing the election.
Dr. Jones said "It is my
hope that you [teachers] will
not penalize students who miss
classes for this reason, and that
you will alto keep their special
problems in mind in giving
examinations and fixing dates
for the completion of
assignments in the period
November 6 to 8, 1972."
It will be up to the student
to discuss his days of absence
concerning election day, with hit
teachers before-hand.

the Administration, is providing
advice on absentee voting as well
as furnishing a guide to absentee

Police Issue
New Policy
The Camput Police
Department hat issued a new
policy concerning students
requesting entrance to dorms
after closing hours.
In the past, there has beeen
someone available to let studentt
in only an hour or so after
closing. Police have not been
able to comply with request to
enter in the early morning hourt
because of other commitments,
Jim Blevint of Camput Security
explained.
In the future, Blevins said,
students will be employed to
answer entrance requests
between closing and 8:00 a.m.
This will benefit students as well
as free Camput Police for other
duties.
