Will Avoid Politics
The association pledges itself to observe the following: The association will not try to force any Lawrence employee to pay higher wages or to make shorter working hours when conditions warrant such action. Efforts may be made to secure adjustments in wages or working conditions; and that action may be taken only after full and complete information has been filed. The association is also involved and only recommended by a member of the University faculty.
The association shall not be officially concerned with politics on the campus of the University. It does reserve the right to make suggestions to the student governing associations concerning any action that may be pertinent to self-supporting students or to the association.
The association will not force employees, but rather will recommend that they hire association members as against non-members.
The association will not force non-members to lose work or to leave school because they are not members.
No dues will be required; except that by the consent of a majority of members present at a business meeting held for the purpose of carrying out the duties by the members, may be assessed for one of the following purposes:
