AURH changes in structure
The KU Association of Residence Halls (AURH) approved some major changes in its organization last night in a move which has been in the planning stage since last spring.
Mark McClelland, Pratt senior and Chairman of the AURH said he was "very pleased with the new structure which will:
Enlarge the council of the AURH to a more workable size.

Enable the AURH to make up most of its committees from members of the council—people who know what is happening and are interested, instead of holding interviews in all the halls.
Improve communications between the AURH and residents in the halls."
The size of the council will increase from the present 27 to
39. The new membership will be Hashinger, three representatives; Templin, three; J.R. Pearson, three; Lewis, three; Ellsworth, five; McCollum, four men and three women; Naismith, one man and one woman. The eight scholarship halls who are members (Stephenson is not) will each have one member, and there are five officers.
Mrs. Frank Shavlik, Assistant Dean of Women and co-sponsor of the AURH, said, "I think they've really thought this through. They had six separate plans to work with, and I think they've got it worked out real well."
TONIGHT'S ACTION changed representation from one representative per each 200 in the large halls to one representative per each 150 residents or faction thereof. A second vice-chairman was added and several wording changes were made in the constitution to make the functioning of the council easier.

BECAUSE THE AURH originally grew out of the Men's Scholarship Hall Council (MSHC) (which now meets only periodically), the Men's Residence Hall Association (MRA) (now defunct), and the Inter Residence Hall Council (IRC), the changes approved tonight will have to be approved by the IRC. This body will meet next Wednesday, and at that time will decide on the changes.

"The appeal." Sherwood said, "hasn't come through. I've been waiting over two weeks for that."

"I don't know for sure, but I don't think there will be any great problems in getting these changes approved," said Margo Crist, Brewster junior, and the president of the IRC.

As the computer tapes whirr, secretaries misfile, organization becomes a science, and the little men get caught in the grind wheels of a modern society.
Mark Sherwood, Parkville, Mo,
sophomore, says that he was
dropped from school because of a
clerical error. "The policy now is that the first semester
your grades fall below a point eight, you're put on probation.
No matter how low, you're not
dropped, just put on probation."
Sherwood received notification that he was dropped. "Seems," he said, "somebody forgot to tell the grading machine about first semester probation, no matter how low the G.P.A."
An interview with a dean corrected the error. "After I got things straightened out I wondered if my draftboard would be notified that I wasn't dropped." Sherwood said that he was told the draft board reports will not be sent out until August.
He continues, "At the beginning of September, my draft board reclassified me as 1-A, so I ran up to Platte City. The board told me that the University had indicated to my draft board that I had been dropped."
Sherwood is still classified as 1-A. "A clerk told me that I was not allowed a personal appearance before my local draft board.
