second meeting on the subject of Index finances the Student Senate voted Monday night to send a recommendation to the Student Faculty RelationsCommittee that the publication of the Index be the financial responsibility of the junior class This rule ifaccepted would in no case apply to this year since the Senate has already given its approval of an assessment on all students up to one dollar for this years annual if necessary The Senate passed thisrecommendation together with three related ones to the SFRC in the hope of clearing up a persistant problem of financial supervision and responsibility Among these was one aimed at reviving the inactive Publications Committee a subcommittee of the SFRC which is supposed to supervise studentpublications but has not met so far this year A third recommendation was that the Publications Committee examine the need for raising the Index fee which is a part of the activities fee It stands now at 450 dollars Also passed was the suggestion that the junior class not be permitted to assess the entire student body to make up any deficit that might be incurred in the future For lack of time a discussion of the suggestion made by freshman Senator Carol Cole that mass examinations be eliminated was postponed Choice of an editor for next years student handbook from the five freshmenapplicants was also held over until next week Delegates
