UNIVERSITY BOYS PROTEST
Consider Certain Actions of Fac.
ulty Senate Unreasonable.
Vote In Mass Meeting to suspend All
Activities except Class Work
President Benton VII speak
to Students This Morning.

DcemlnE certain actions of the faculty
senate arbitrary and unreasonable the
entire male student body at the rniyer-
sity of ermo held a mass meeting veg
terday morning to file a vigorous protest.
To enforce this protest il was decided that
all student activities except class work
should cease until the faculty should
have opportunity for reconsideration.
In order to promote a better spirit be-
tween students and faculty a conference
composed of five professors ana ten stu
dents was formed last winter. This con-
ference had no legislative power, but
could make recommendation to the fac
ulty senate. At the first meeting of this
conference it was unanimously recon-
mended that the junior week festivities
should take place on May q, D and %.
since these dates were from every stand
point more convenient for all the stu
dents. 1t was also recommended that the
two upper classes be excused from classes
during the period of the festivities. The
senate on Tuesday evening treated these
suggestions with what the students con
sidcred scant consideration, and voted
that the festivities should be confined to
the last three days of the week, on the
ground that such was voted last year. 1t
Ndo tISO Nolth TIA IO tllCStH NoAiAl W
excused. Another irritating bit Of legis-
lation was passed at this meeting to the
effect that no student could attend an out
of-town social function without the con-
sout of his dean.
Late that evening as soon as the &C
tons of the Senate were known, a rep
resentative crowd of seniors and juniors
met, discussed the rules and decided to
L nrtIat ,t,nan tI, url1Io q, -. .,
mass meeting on Wednesday morning at
ten o'clock. The meeting was held in the
gymnasium at that time. Bloomer. Jor-
dan, Nelson, owens. St. John and Farm
ham presented the various phases of the
situation. Nelson gave it from the fac
ulty's stand point after asccrtaining the
same from Deans Hills and Votey. With
out any heat or excitement in the meet
ing. there seemed to be a firm conviction
in the minds of all present that the stu
dent councils proposals had not been
properly received and that the restrictive
ruiz on social functions was i'll consid-
cred. The very desirable policy of stu
dent representation so recently started
seemed to be doomed to futilitv unless
the students could secure favorable re-
consideration from the faculty.
The following resolution was passed:
We the students of the University of
Vermont do protest AGAINST the lack Of
consideration given the suggestions of
the student committee. and We hereby re-
solve that the student committee he en-
powered to voice the protest to the fac
ulty."
1t was further voted that all student
activities be Suspended until III. s+udon,
