Moot Senate.
A number of students eligible to mem bership in the moot senate of Kansas State University met in the Seminary room Tuesday night and reorganized that body. Officers were elected, seats and states chosen, and bills were introduced, so that by the next meeting the senators will have commenced the labors of the session. The election was carried on regardless of party lines and resulted in the unanimous choice of Prof. E. D. Adams as president. S. J. Hunter was elected president pro tem; W. M.

Regents' Meeting
At the meetings of the regents on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of last week, some changes were made in the organization of the faculty. Prof. Robincon was made dean of the faculty of the school of arts; and Prof. Marvin, of the school of engineering. A University council was organized to consist of the Chancellor, the deans of the five schools, one additional member from each of the schools of law, pharmacy, music and art, and engineering, and five from the faculty of the school of arts. This council shall have exclusive charge of matters of discipline in the University, and of all matters pertaining to the University as a whole. The duties of the deans shall be to preside at the meetings of the faculties of their schools in the absence of the chancellor, and to look after the general interests of their schools.

He shall receive and keep record of all grades and report them at the end of the term to students or their guardians if desired. He shall see that all regulations of the faculties concerning instruction work be carried out, shall consult with students regarding their work and shall superintend the issuing of all catalogues. This will relieve the chancellor of a great deal of routine work and allow him more time for the general business of the University.
It was decided to ask the legislature for an increase in the appropriation for current expenses, and to recommend to that body that the Spooner bequest be used for the creation of a library building.
It was also decided that no club of students such as the glee, foot ball or base ball club could make claim of being representative of the University without first getting permission of the council to do so.
