ASB Reinstates
Supreme Council
The PCC Supreme Council has
been reinstated, now functioning
as the official judicial body of
student government.
The council, provided for in
the ASB Constitution but inopera¬
tive for several semesters, is com¬
posed of eight students appointed
by the ASB Board. The members
are Bill McLinn, Jon Fasana, Linn
Melvin, Mike Davis, Greg Smith,
Dennis Thompson, Javad Khalil-
jadeh, and Bill Krantz.
According to the ASB Consti¬
tution, the Supreme Council “shall
have original and final jurisdic¬
tion over all issues involving con¬
stitutionality.”
McLinn, chairman of the coun¬
cil, hopes that the judicial organi¬
zation can quickly develop into an
efficiently-functioning body. “We
are trying to set up an opera¬
tion wherein the Supreme Coun¬
cil will interpret the ASB Consti¬
tution, club constitutions, and
other campus codes and rulings,”
he said. “The council should be
able to act when infractions of
the rules occur.”
“The powers of the council may
also include disciplinary action of
individuals or organizations who
violate pre-set rules,” McLinn
added.
Bob Bordwell, ASB president,
originally conceived the idea of
reinstating the Supreme Council
to alleviate the ASB Board of un¬
necessary burdens.
