NUMBER 1
--------
CAMPUS SECURITY PLAN: A committee has been struck 
consisting of representatives of the student body, 
Physical Plant, and the Security Department, with the 
purpose of evaluating Dalhousie's campus security.  The 
committee's mandate is to address specific areas of the 
campus where security needs to be improved -- through 
increased lighting, placement of emergency phones, a 
"code blue" security system, and/or promotion of 
security issues.  We would like to hear from your 
society (and the staff/faculty in your area) about 
security concerns in your area of the campus.  Please 
be specific (don't worry about being too picky!).  Your 
input is valuable and very important to this committee.

                 FOOTBALL REFERENDA QUESTION 
               (to be discussed and voted upon 
                 at Annual General Meeting)

Whereas Dalhousie students have indicated a strong 
interest in bringing football back to Dalhousie,

Whereas interest among Dalhousie alumni have been 
identified and corporate sponsorship is potentially 
available,

Whereas full-time students pay an Athletic Fee which 
will be $60 for the 1996-1997 academic year,

Be it resolved that the following question be posed to 
Dalhousie Students during the upcoming 1996 DSU General 
Election and Referendum Period:

	Understanding that the Athletic Fee for the 1996-
1997 academic 	year is currently $60 and can be 
expected to increase up to $90 	by the 2000-2001 
academic year, do you support an additional 	increase 
of $10 to the Althletic Fee to bring football back to 
	Dalhousie under the following conditions?

	1. the Dalhousie football programme must not 
impact other 	varsity athletic programmes that 
Dalhousie currently offers;

	2. additional funding from corporate sponsors and 
Dalhousie 	alumni must be secured by June 1996 in 
order to fully fund the 	football programme for at 
least five years, commencing in the 	1997-1998 academic 
year;

	3. if any of the above conditions are not met, the 
$10 fee 	increase will be eliminated from the Athletic 
Fee for the 	following academic year.
