Informational meeting set
on Board placement issue
An informational meeting concerning the proposal
of a student on the Board of Trustees will be held at
2 p.m., Dec. 4 in the VU lounge.
Last week a petition was circulated on campus
asking student support of the idea of placing a student
on the Board.
A desk will be in front of the VU this week for students
wishing information about the proposal.
Wide spread support has been solicited for this
issue and now David Sprague, chairman of Western's
Board of Trustees and state legislature, has endorsed
the idea, according to an AS Informational handout.
The Council of Washington State Student Body
Presidents has met with Governor Daniel J. Evans and
received full support from him concerning the matter.
Since trustees only come to campus for one or two
days a month, they cannot possibly rule with wisdom
on vital matters concerning students, according to Noel
Bourasaw, AS president.
Students interested in getting a student on the
Board can talk to their parents and solicit help on this
issue in their hometowns, Bourasaw said.
They also can write letters to their state legislators,
and sign the petition, endorsing the idea, he continued.
More information on this issue can be obtained
from the AS President's office, which is now in the process
of drawing up a pamphlet concerning this matter.
"This college does not exist to serve
itself, it exists to serve generations today
and tomorrow," Dr. Charles J. Flora,
president of Western, said in his inaugural
address Thursday.
More than 1,000 students, educators,
and special guests gave the newly-inaugurated
president a standing ovation as
David Sprague, chairman of the Board
of Trustees, placed the presidential pendant
around Flora's neck.
The Most Rev. Thomas Gill, auxiliary
bishop of the Catholic Archdiocese of
Seattle, gave the invocation and benediction.
The Western Brass Choir performed
the processional and recessional.
Representatives from more than 150
colleges and universities throughout the
United States were present at the ceremony.
Many of the representatives were Western
faculty who had been asked to represent
the school from which they received
their degree.
Rep. Don Eldridge, speaker of the
House of Representatives, and a former
Goals of groups

Both of these panels will

Western Trustee represented Gov. Daniel
J. Evans and other state officials.
Eldridge said the governor regretted
he was unable to personally convey his
congratulations.
Stanley Little, speaking for the state
Board of Education, said that the appointment
of Flora was "in keeping with the
high caliber of education in the state."
Congratulations were also extended by
Hans Lorentzen, speaking for the Alumni
Association; Dr. Arthur Hicks, English professor,
representing the faculty; and Associated
Students President Noel Bouasaw,
speaking for the student body.
Flora succeeds Dr. Harvey C. Bunke,
who resigned in September, 1967. Flora
was interim president before being named
Western's new chief administrator last
March 26.
Before becoming interim president,
Flora was academic dean for two years.
He said he foresees the day when
Western will offer the doctorate degree
in addition to the six degrees already
offered.
Domestic quarrels or royal riffs abound between Grant Kin-near,
as King Henry II of England, and Sharon Bullingron, as
Eleanor of Aquitaine, in "The Lion in Winter." Described as
"The medieval Virginia Woolf ", the final Western Players
production is described in a story on page 2.
