The Senate meeting for Tuesday, April 8th will be held in
the
same place as the last meeting, that is Cafeteria Number 1
(Faculty Lounge), It will convene at 7:30 P.
M.
In keeping with the resolutions passed by Senate at its. special.
meeting on Wednesday, March 26th, a closed circuit audio system
will be installed with speakers provided in the Main Cafeteria.
I have decided that the audio circuits shall be supplemented
by closed circuit television. This will, consist of one 'camera
with a wide-angle lens within the Senate meeting room and video
monitors placed in the Main Cafeteria.
I am aware that some people have indicated that they will not
observe Senate's decision to exclude observer. At the meeting
on April 8th, if persons choose not to observe Senate's decision,
they
shall .be asked to leave. If they do not leave, the. meeting
either will not be convened or it shall be adjourned. If this occurs,
the meeting will be rescheduled for another time and another place.
However, I hope that the people who have indicated
'
they will not
observe the Senate resolution will reconsider and that the work of
Senate can continue without the University having to apply santions
against those disrupting this work,

have requested that they get in touch with you in order that
table layout in that area can be completed.

The intention is to place the T.V. camera outside the Senate
table layout, at the south end, facing towards the Chairman
who is seated at the north end. From this standpoint, a
reasonable amount of room for camera movement will be required,
leaving the same amount of space as has previously been left.
between the end of the Senate tables and the first row of seats
for the audience. The former seating area for the audience can
be left set up with the current tables and chairs.
If there are any questions concerning the seating arrangements,
