The goal behind these revisions, said Schultz, Is to make more unity in government and Mer-riLe- Cut back on government. Make it more effective. Simplify. From federal to state governments, this seems to be the trend of our day. The Associated Students of Westminster College are no exception and through the com Campos Chaplain Joins Priesthood create better checks on various positions and people. If enacted, the recommendations would effect the ASWC Constitution, the structure of the present government, and the number of people involved in student government decision making. The first of the proposed changes would consist of the restructuring of the present Legislative Assembly. The newly formed body would be called the senate, and contain eight representatives rather than twelve. Two representatives each would come from the schools of business, arts and sciences, and nursing; and two at large representatives from the student community. Class representatives would be eliminated.

Moore said she worked towards this goal for eight years. She spent four years obtaining a masters degree in divinity from the Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, Mass. She also served in various parishes, then interviewed to be ordained a deacon. Moore described the whole process as a "really long journey. Moores ordination was at All Saints Episcopal Church dunpg a special service on the Episcopalian Holy Day, Feast of the Presentation of Our Lord Jesus in the Temple. Scripture readings, special prayers and the laying of the bishops and priests hands on her head are all part of the ceremony. The Right Reverend George E. Bates, the Episocpalian bishop in Utah, ordained Moore. Westminsters Director of Career Services, Susan D. Heath, and Administrative Assistant to the dean of Students and Veterans Coodinator, Karen A. Hendry, participated in the ceremony. In addition to the All Saints parishioners, people from Westminster including students, faculty and staff, women from the Womens Ministry Network, an organization for women clergy that Moore is involved with, and from Holy Cross Hospital Moores also attended the ceremony. Moore said having people there from the various areas of her life tied it all together. r. 9 Board; Utah Intercollegiate Assembly; Budget Committee; and a committee responsible for elections., The Judiciary may be reduced to only three members, according to Hopkins. This body would turn over the responsibility for elections to the senate. The Judiciary would then concentrate on ruling for constitutionality on procedures, reviewing stipends and in generally providing a check on the other branches of government. Hopkins said, They will provide an objective position between the new senate and the executive cabinet. , Other changes would include a general cleaning up of the constitution: eliminating grammatical inconsistencies; and changing the number of posted office hours for the secre- tary to 10. It is important to note that these are only recommendations, and any constitutional changes would not go into effect until voted upon by the student body. ' The Reverend Cheryl Moore is her new title. Moores duties in her church now include performing services such as weddings, leading a congregation, hearing confessions, administering blessings and offering sacraments. Moore is able to offer sacraments at Westminster as well. In addition Moore said of her duties here, I want to be here as a resource for the whole Westminster community, be a friend to them and help them on their own spiritual journeys.
