EDITORIAL
The new proposed Fresno State College As¬
sociation bylaws are a culmination of three
years of research, 18 months of hard study and
two weeks of compromise. If FSC students pass
the new bylaws in April, they will have made a
somewhat revolutionary step for student power
and control of the campus.
Two areas in the bylaws spell out this new
power for the students. The section concerning
the new Student Senate and its makeup is"one
of these areas. The Student Senate, which is a
new political animal itself, will be predominate¬
ly controlled by senators representing the sev¬
en college schools. This new shift in repre¬
sentation is far more representative than the
present Student Council. We can expect new
political power groups to be formed on campus.
These groups should form, for organization
generally follows the power. When a senator
speaks, he should carry far more respect than
someone who represents an individual club or
fraternity.
Only time will tell whether students take on
the challenge and responsibility of this newly
created power, but the power is now there and
it will be there for the future.

A new and Interesting phenom-
FSC: to wit, toe scrawling of po¬
litical opinions and slogans on the
walls of toe campus Johns. Such
a flowering of cerebrenatloos to
such an unlikely spot Is rather
perplexing. One doesn't know
whether to Interpret lt as an up¬
grading of *out-house poetry" or
a down-grading of the usual po¬
litical discussions here on cam¬
pus.
The usual sort ot washroom

In taste, toe rather primordial
nature of the urges brought to
such an environment, but how
does one explain the texts of

Perhaps these examples do
testify to the elevating Influences

I would like to take thla oppor¬
tunity to commend The Dally Col¬
legian and Betty Hicks on the
three-part study of the quarter
system which appeared recently.
I believe toe research was
thorough and competent; the
presentation of alternate points of
view was adequate and balanced;
the conclusions were inescap¬
able.
One  could only wish that toe
Coordinating CouncU for Higher

would  perform  a«
