Galloway also revealed that three forged priority cards were caught, along with numerous excuses attributed to, - but not signed by,,' Charles Witten, vice, president in charge of student affairs. Galloway said that priority cards were not made out for students receiving automatic priorities because the committee felt that all the cards should be used for students that needed them more.
