Show I SENATE INVESTIGATION The Senate Committee to investigate U Days events displayed undue concern for what other people were saying about how silly this investigation It appeared from reports of the that some of the investigators were anxious to get the hearing oyer with and commend the U days Committee so everybody would be friends The issue that provoked this investigation of determining whether or not the committee's action in disqualifying judges ballots was really never faced up to by the in the questionable ballots were not presented to the committee as evidence to support the Songfest Committee's The question of the right or wrong of the investigation is not an issue We think the Senate's concern about keeping activities nice and proper is a legitimate The Senate took this attitude when the nasty bomb of foul play in Songfest burst on the campus scene the Monday after U The cries from discontented committee members should not put fear into the hearts of our senators so Perhaps something was amiss in the Songfest We will never know because of the way the Senate Committee fearfully dodged The Senate as a body should be commended for deciding action should be but certain senators should feel a little about their childish fear in doing their duty of investigating alleged irregularities in student government There comes with position in government the responsibility to accept problems and then to solve The fear that some Senate members displayed in handling this current problem is an indication of immaturity in what was hoped to be mature student |
