KU council sets policy for Senate
The University of Kansas University Senate has been unable to adopt a policy statement on organizational membership in three frustrating sessions.
The University Council at their last meeting, deciding in behalf of the Senate, adopted a policy which permits efforts to overcome the results of past discrimination, a statement of principle banning discrimination on the basis of sex, and adopted rules and regulations of the Senate.
The council adopted the matters under a provision of the Senate code which empowers it to act in behalf of the University Senate.
The council voted on a recommendation to be given to the Senate suggesting that it change its quorum requirement. The present quorum requirement calls for a quorum both of the Student Senate and of the Faculty Council. The change would make a quorum 20 per cent of the members of the University Senate.
Millard Fillmore was the first president to have a step-mother.
