Cubberley's students presently possess the right of an opencampus during lunch period. Many students take' advantage ofthis privilege by going home for lunch, driving to variousdrive-in restaurants. or walking across Middlefield Road toeat. Some students abuse this right, which may be revokedby the administration at any time.

Every right, inalienable or otherwise. demands a reciprocalresponsib~e attitude of those people who receive its benefits.In this case, the students of Cubberley have to act responsiblyin everything they do' during lunch period. or face the with­drawal of the open-campus policy;

A small group of'Cubberley students is putting this right injeopardy for the whole ,student body. Reports reaching Mr.St.anard's office complain of Cubberley students loitering alongMiddlefield Road and Montrose Avenue. Residents of the areacharge that these students litter their property and the streetswith cigarette butts and food wrappings.

Because of this abuse of the open-campus, privilege.Cubberley's administration may be forced to close the campusduring lunch hour.

These students and all students who take advantage of thispolicy must act in a mature, responsible manner or risk theabolition of an open campus •

At the next meeting on Octo­ber 9. the motion was untabledpromptly and then a secondmotion was made to send theproposal to the AssemblyCommittee. In the discussionthat followed. a point was madeas to whether Leg. Councilwould vote on the motion asmerely a recommendation orthe basis for a new policy.The representatives wanted thelatter and they voted to sendthe proposal to committee.

The committee met withmembers of the Faculty Senateseveral times and AssemblyCommissioner r Jacki Collinsmade the report on October16. 'She moved to amend thepresent motion to read "Thecouncil is opposed to com-

. pulsory attendance at assem­blies non-essential to the run­ning of the school and that ajoint committee of students andfaculty be organized to deter­mine which assemblies areessential and to set up a pro­cedure providing alternateactivities for students not at­tending the assembly."

The amendment was changedto read "three students and

.three faculty;" This amend-ment was passed along withthe original amendment. ThenLeg. Council passed the re­vised motion.

An official policy regardingassemblies is the goal of theLeg.' Council which fully car­ries out their ideas asexpressed in this legislation.AFS FINALISTS NAMED
