By a Kansan reporter
The Graduate Student Council Executive Committee last night continued discussion of a proposed constitution that would create a Graduate Representative Assembly.
The proposed constitution also wished that GradEx of GradEx's executive-compilations
The assembly would function in a consultative role and would have no power over GradEx. GradEx's decisions would be final except if reviewed by the Graduate Student Council, which is composed of all graduate students.
GradEx members said the assembly would be composed of about 80 students from every graduate department. Quorum for the assembly would be a majority.
Currently, GradEx's executive coordinator is hired by GradEx but paid by the graduate school. GradEx reviews the coordinator's actions but
has no power over the position.
Under the proposed constitution, GradEx would pay the coordinator with money from Student Senate, giving GradEx full power over its coordinator.
The constitution also specifies that the coordinator cannot be a GradEx member. GradEx members who wish to run for the position, which is vacant after the resignation of Dean Braa, must temporarily forfeit their voting privileges while the appointment is being considered.
In other action, Michael Foubert, acting co-coordinator, said the national meeting of Graduate Council Executives would be held in late April at Washington State University in Pullman. Wash. Foubert suggested that GradEx send a representative if possible.
"If it is feasible, I think it would be advantageous for face-to-face interaction and exchange of ideas," he said.
Some KU buildings will be without heat
The shutdown involves turning off steam that is transported by a pipe system from the facilities operations central to most University buildings.
By a Kansan reporter
Most University of Kansas buildings will be without heat March 18 and 19 during the annual steam shutdown.
"We try to inconvenience as few people as possible." Porter said.
Bob Porter, associate director of physical plant maintenance, said the shutdown was scheduled for spring and that it would not be used much during that time.
If daytime temperatures in mid-March reach much below 40 degrees, the shutdown will be postponed until May 20 and 21. Porter said.
The steam will be shut off at midnight March 17 and turned on in
the evening of March 19, Porter said. The purpose of the shutdown is to cool machines and pipes and to clear the two main steam transportation tunnels so maintenance workers have access to them.

Most of the University's power central maintenance occurs during the semester by shutting off a few pipes at a time, leaving only a few buildings without heat for a few hours at a time, Porter said.
Workers will pack valves, check and lubricate expansion joints and main valves, and overhaul all associated equipment. Porter said.
