The Governance Committee (a Standing Committee of the University Assembly) is taking a good look at GSU's governance system, because our present Constitution self-destructs at midnight June 30, 1974. And, they're suggesting strongly that everyone should do the same in order to make it more effective, expressive, and efficient. Charged with the basic task of drafting a completely new one, the Governance Committee seeks help and advice from students, staff, and faculty in order to design a system that will work well in the months and years ahead. They are, therefore, seeking interviews with past and present members of UA, its committees, unit heads, deans, and others who have had firsthand experience with the present governance system. Interviews will be on a person-to-person basis, strictly confiden­tial; interviewees may specify the Governance Committee member by whom they'd like to be inter­viewed. Four general hearings have been scheduled in Rm. 840 (minicarnpus): Tuesday, March 27: 2-4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m., Wednesday, March 28: 2-4 p.m., and March 29: Thursday, 6-8 p.m. Mem-bers of the Standing Committee on Governance are: MARVIN BROTTMAN, BERNARD BUSH, LOWELL CULVER, SUSAN GEBHARDT, ROBERT KLOSS, JOSEPH MEREDITH, VIRGINIO PIUCCI, JOHN ROHR, and EL�ffiR WITT. ONE ��RE TIME ... Applications are being ac­cepted for the May-June, July-August, and September-October sessions in all colleges and in the new and flexible BOG baccalaure­ate degree program. Horc information about the specific learning programs being offered in each session is available from the Col­leges. The BOG degree is a new and innova­tive degree program designed primarily for mature adults and makes it possible to ob­tain a degree without long attendance at any one campus. Providing credits for life and work experience, it allows graduation after taking only 15 of the total 120 credits at any one or a combination of the five BOG universities. JUST AN IMPRESSION ... A phenomer.3l collec­tion of Renoir paintings drawn together from all over the world has been attracting thou­sands to Chicago Art Institute. The special and rare exhibit ends this week. Many a GSUer has been contending with the crowds to get a glimpse or three of the French mas­ter's efforts. FOCUS ON SAFETY SERVICES ... Handling a vari­ety of problems is the function of Safety Services. As the name implies. this unit (reporting to GSU's Building and Plant Op­eration) is responsible for the safety of both personnel and physical facilities. They're the ones to go to when property gets ripped off, when situations develop that may involve physical injury, or when anyone needs efficient help--fast. Recently, a Safety Services Officer needed seven stitches in a head injury suffered in an off-campus in­cident while taking home a student Safety Aide who'd just finished work. So, next time a telephone rings during a performance while the Safety Officer is attending to his duties in another part of the building, or you get the license number of the guy who banged your car and drove off--remember that there's no premium pay offered to Safety Officers for putting their lives on the line for the rest of us--it's just part of their jobs. WATCH YOUR SCHEDULE ... to O'Hare, come March 26 to November 1, when the Tri-State will be undergoing repairs, according to our staff Navy scout Reavis. WE'RE STILL GETTING IT ... The list of those publishing about GSU is steadily growing. IU chard W. Hostrop, in a new book ti tlcd �.ANAGJNG EDUCATION FOI� IU:SULTS, wrote about us on pages 77-85 . llos t rop' s book has been ordered and will soon grace the shelves of LRC ... Another publication, Science Edu­cation News, devotes two of its eight pages to CEAS. It is published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The section about GSU is called "The Trends in Science Education," and concludes with statements about 1973-74 projections for CEAS professional staff and students, en­rollment projections, and new developments the college anticipates ... as it serves the needs of students. •• ... And the recruit.r front II� 10U tell him that at eoHep you ,....tty on a rock by the sea, lrJinc to find yourMIP.' -CORRECTIONS ... in last week's FAZE I, UA Ap-peals CoiiUilittee story, the sentence, "The Committee's task is to consider appeals from personnel decisions and can only con­sider salary, tenure, and termination," "-:lS incorrect. Chairperson TINA STRETCH statl•d: "As per Professional Personnel Systems cor­rected and final version 2-9-73, page 22: "All members of the University commun ity have the right to seek redress . . . ! If any mcmbc r of the University community has a grievance, he or she should attempt to reconcile differ­ences within the unit or with the person(s) directly involved. If this informal attempt fails then the following formal procedures should be followed and formal records kept." The document then directs persons to settle disputes on the unit level. If no response then to the appropriate V.P. then "if no re­sponse or satisfaction is achieved at this point, the aggrieved parties may elect to register an appeal and request a hearing with the chairperson of the University Appeals Commdttee. The conmdttee makes decisions in regards to the processes through which judgments and decisions have been made." SPEEDING TICKETS ... Some quick research by DICK NEWMAN (LRC) may dismiss the speeding tickets received by a number of GSUers last week on Bond Street. It appears, the speed limit on Bond may not have been properly set by ordinance. The Village prosecutor is checking to determine whether Bond is consid­ered in an urban district. If it isn't (and that's the contention), the prosecutor will enter a motion of nol-pros (translation: he's not going to prosecute). But if you got a ticket, you'll probably have to have the charges formally dismissed by the Village prosecutor or the Court. GSUings ... RALPH WINSTON (CBPS) participating in a conference in Chicago on "Doing Business in Japan" with representatives from the Japa­nese Ministry of Trade and Industry, spon­sored by Ill. Society of CPAs ... JOHN CANNING (COM) being appointed to Public Relations So­ciety of America's Chicago chapter student committee along with representatives from Loyola, North Central, Illinois, and NIU ... BERNARD BUSH (A & R) chairing Park Forest Art Center's Fine Arts Festival and asking for people and ideas (Ext. 200) ... BILL WICKERSHAM (B & PO) catching the eye as he hovers over GSU in his small plane ... DAVE WIGHT (ICC) and MEL MUOfNIK (COM) speaking to Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society at Thornton Community College ... TOM CALL (BO) joining Park Forest Rotary Club.
