The Assembly voted to conduct business as usual, despite the absence of freshman and sophomore members.
The progress of the B.G.S. degree proposal was disclosed to an Assembly which lacked half of the colleges within the College failed to come up with enough candidates for the Sept. 14 election; the selection of theseresses was postponed until Oct. 5.
The Educational Policies and Procedures Committee reported that formal recommendations for
changes in College degree requirements will not be ready until the December or February meeting.
Meetings with representatives from the foreign language and speech departments have been completed, and conferences with representatives from Western Civilization, mathematics and other departments represented in the degree department scheduled throughout the semester.
The motion to reduce the foreign language requirement by one course each year for the next four years was discussed, but no agreement was reached. The motion was introduced at the May 9 meeting of the Assembly, it was agreed that degree requirements would be reviewed jointly and a motion yesterday to language separately was tabled.
A committee on by-laws has been appointed by the Assembly to consider provision for grading students in membership. The current by-laws provide for 20 per cent undergraduate students and 10 per cent teaching assistants and instructors plus faculty members.

According to Jess Stewart, chairman of the Board of Directors of the university dissension to having three representatives from the Medical Center on the committee of 12 members select the next KU chancellor.
The Medical Center accounts for less than 8 per cent of KU's total enrolment. According to the registrar, the university is released by the registrar's office; there are 18,673 students at the Lawrence campus and 1,439 at the Williamsville campus.
Stewart said he had spoken with faculty members and faculty leaders, who had not questioned the make-up of the students.
When asked if the Medica,
Center representation was fair to
other graduate schools of the
university, Stewart said
representation had not been
determined on a "one man, one

situation would make the committee unwieldy.
Stewart said the Medicai Center was a very important arm university, 'which we wanted to appropriate representation.'
Acting Chancellor Raymond M. Palmer of Medical Center represents "all goes back to the problem" of the medical Center is 45 miles away."
"THEY PROBABLY should be represented," Nichols said, "they were represented four years ago," referring to the 1988 committee which recommended the lawmakers Jr. for the chancellorship.

WILLIAM RIEKE, vice chancellor for Health Affairs, said that while he had had no influence in making up the committee, he was pleased that the Center was represented.
Nichols said the 25 per cent representation of the Medical Center probably wouldn't make him work in who is finally selected.
E里ke went on to say that Medical Center representatives would be interested in how a group of doctors would joint programs of the Kansas City and Lawrence campuses, and how he would handle the conceptual and practical matters coming to a campus in Kansas City.
"I think they will all work together for the best interests of everybody," Nichols said.
"The percentages aren't important to me." Rieke said.
Rieke said he understood that the KU Alumni Association would pick the Medical Center alumunium by picking a faculty representative would go to the Faculty Assembly Steering Committee, and the choice of a student, represent referred to the AI Student Council.
"I think we are interested in the feeling of interaction of the Medical Center and the Lawrence campus," Rieke said.
