A Few Resolutions
If the Christmas holidays have

ac-

complished anything specific in our
society, they have attached to it a
sense of permanence that otherwise
would be absent. Each year, the customs of Christmas cards,
parties, and New Year's resolutions
pound our consciousness t into belief
that it is special.
But the continual change which
pervades our society and destroys
our security always presents a differd
world each
ent and
Christmas. The permanence that remains is the ritual we exercise and
enjoy. And, as the world enters a new
decade, the change at the University
of Kentucky has been noticeable and
admirable, it has expanded into a
massive community and promises to
double its enrollment during the next
five years.
; However, the transitional period
also has presented perplexities, disappointments, problems and more
problems. The first semester of 1959
has been typical. The Court of Appeals' salary decision, the degradation
of Student Congress, the veterans'
bonus, preclassification, student demonstrations have helped strip UK of
its morale.
The holiday period nevertheless al

ways calls for resolutions and perhaps
UK needs firm resolutions more than
anything to advance as a modern, efficient university. Among other things
we would hope for:
1. The revoking of the salary limitation of the Constitution.
2. The granting of the University's
proposed 30 million dollar budget for
the next biennium.
3. The reinstating of Student Congress as a representative organization
with sharply defined powers and responsibilities.
4. A better preclassification plan
that is workable and only mildly

that could be achieved by any ordinary
group expressing the Christmas spirit.
