UPPlatform
The University Party believes that the two basic functions of student government are 1) to enact legislation and 2) to inform the student. These two basic functions have as their purpose service to the student. Thus they must assess the following platform with the improvement of these two functions in mind.
STUDENT EMPLOYMENT
ASC Student Employment Committee: The University Party will establish an ASC Student Employment Committee to make recommendations concerning employment problems relating to KU students. This committee will look into these three areas: 1) Hiring policies of various departments; 2) Work conditions paid by these departments, and 3) Policies of off-campus business establishments in hiring KU students.
The University Party will establish a temporary ASC committee to work with the University to date and improve files of examinations and course material used by professors and instructors. The various departments of the university and request that they make available sample tests and other materials not regularly available to students.
FOOD COMMITTEE
ASC Food Committee: The University Party will establish an ASC Food Committee to investigate the procurement, preparation, and distribution of food within KU living groups. This committee will serve as an official chair for examinations and recommendations regarding such matters.
LIBRARY EXAMINATION FILES
STUDENT-TEACHER EVALUATION
STUDENT TEACHER Evaluation: The University Party will make available to the faculty, as an ASC service, a system whereby, after an evaluation by the students of their teaching methods. This Teacher Evaluation Service will be available to the faculty. This evaluation will be handled so that students taking part will remain anonymous, and therefore no face to face manner. ASC COMMITTEE SYSTEM
The University Party feels the two-part plank presented below will help provide positive guidance for the ASC committee system.
Part I. Committee Evaluation Board: The University Party will establish chair of committee, and the other shall hold sessions at least once per semester. This board shall, through interviewation, evaluate the effectiveness of each ASC committee. The duties of this committee shall be similar to the present Commission, only on a permanent basis.
Part II. The University Party will establish a system whereby each ASC member receives a meeting of each permanent ASC committee. Each ASC committee chairman will know which council member will handle his council each time and will notify the council member of the meetings. Thus, all council members workings of the committee system, but will provide a direct line between the council and the committee.
FRESHMAN LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
Freshman Leadership Program. The University Party will establish a freshman leader position in order to pick new students, better understand the responsibilities and problems of campus leadership positions which they may hold while at KU. This program's main purpose will be to teach freshmen how to give these freshmen a better understanding of campus leadership responsibilities.
The University Party will also include, as a part of this program, a Campus Leadership Day. This will consist of a series of discussions held in the campus leadership positions on campus. This program will benefit the entire university by bringing together these people for a discussion of common campus leadership problems.
Voting Machines: The University Party, in cooperation with the government, endorses the recent ASC resolution to form a committee to inform voters of voting machines in campus elections.
