A group of law students
are considering a law suit
against Student Govern
ment's Block Seating
Commission because of the
cutback in block seats
available to the law school.
James Cauthen, one of the
group's leaders, said
three-fourths of the law
students are upset because
of the cut. He said the
students are currently just
blowing off steam but that
there is a definite possibility
of going to court and "getting
some results."
Cauthen says he cannot
understand how a dormitory
qualifies as a dues-paying
organization or how
fraternities were able to
receive sucn an aDunaance
of tickets.
ALL CAMPUS
organizations, excluding
fraternities, must apply for
block seating through the
Block Seating Commission.
