Constitution; Wrestlers spark SRA by Mlchala Salyards If tha Student Represen- tatlve Assembly decides to Im¬ plement it's proposed new constitution immediately, they could lose all official support from the university. Tlie new constitution, which was written between the sum¬ mer and fall of '82 by S.R.A. members, must be, according to the Institutional Rules on Student Activities, approved l>y the dean of students, the President of the University, the Chancellor, and the Board of Regents iMfore it is to become effective. Kim Eastman, historian for the S.R.A., feels that the new constitution should be im¬ plemented effective im¬ mediately bec0"se it Is "Easier to follow, and that the S.R.A. should be a self- governing one, responsible primarily to the students, not to the Board of Regents." In a letter to the PAISANO, Eastman stated. "If you want the S.R.A. to l>e a student govemment with power, it re¬ quires that we implement the new constitution now. The reason for this is simple: power is not something wMch Is handed to an Individual or an organization, It is something which must be taken." Ray l^ke. Junior Represen¬ tative, stated in the Fel)ruary 23rd meeting that Is such ac¬ tion be taken by the S.R.A., "The university wouid remove any funds, offices, and/or priveleges from us." Dr. Dora Hauser. Dean of Students, later agreed, "We would have to withdraw univer¬ sity support and resources because they wouM not be in compliance with the Regents Rules and Regulations." "I find it difficult to believe that any one student or any one group can say. 'I don't want to play t>y your rules, but you have to support me anyway." Pam Brown, Sophomore Representative, who is In agreement with Eastman, mo¬ tioned during the Fet>ruary 23rd meeting to have a referen¬ dum. After much discussion l>y the assembly, the motion did not carry. Other tHJsfness by the S.R.A. on Feb. 23 was to address the issue of allocating funds for the wrestling team to pur¬ chase a 40 X 40 mat. David Zln- zow, president of the Wrestl¬ ing club said, "The mat could t>e used by many clubs; areobics, karate, etc. We'd like to purchase a mat outright, because the athletic director refuses to let a rented mat on his property. He refuses to have anything other than a good standard mat." Zinzow added, "The athletic director wants us to work through the business office In the physical plant." However, by the March 2nd meeting, Kim Eastman and Mario Martinez (Senior Representative) had visited with Rudy Davalos, (athletic Director). At the meeting, they reported that if the S.R.A. wouid allocated $1200 for the mat, then that athletic depart¬ ment wouid supply tfie remain¬ ing cost. The S.RT^. voted to approriate funds for ttie wrestl¬ ing team to purchase a mat. Zinzow, who was pleased with the outcome, stated, "I think the twst thing out of this is that the Athletic Depart¬ ment, the S.R.A. and the Stu¬ dent Activities are working together in the best interest of the student body." The 40X40 mat will cost ap¬ proximately $6000. If for some reason the team is unable to purchase a 40X40, them an 18X18 wlll be purchased. nii>Ano r Vol 3, No. 4 March 8,1963 J Enrollment Shows Consistency By Joyce Hyde Tfie figures of the UTSA cen¬ sus for spring quarter suggest that UTSA students are keep¬ ing pace with the materialistic trend of university students natktnally. At the same time the census reveals relatively few surprises In regard to male-female ratios within the various colleges. Men have traditionally out¬ numbered women in the science and mathematics fields, while women have out¬ numbered men In the social and behavioral sciences and arts and humanities. Ttiese ratios, altfiough experiencing slight changes in some areas, have been relatively static at UTSA. The College of Business, however, has seen a rapid growth In txith male and female students in the last five to seven years according to Dr. Larry Penley, Associate Dean, College of Business. Of the four colleges, it has the higliest enrollment with 3.230 students and an almost even 9pllt between men and women. "Although the overall numtiers fiave increased, the ratio of men to women has remained relatively constant," said Penley. "There has been a move¬ ment away from litierai arts as women have moved into the business fields because of in¬ creased opportunities and a decline In discrimination," Penley continued, "but UTSA has always had women work¬ ing toward business degrees in fairly large number. 38% ot our business graduate students are women, while na¬ tionally only one-fourth to one- third of graduate students are women." Dr. Penley stated that Ac¬ counting is a particularly popular field with both sexes currently. "There Is a high de¬ mand for accountants in the business world" added Penley. The College of Science and Mathematics has the second largest enrollment with 2,177 students and a noticeatiiy un¬ balanced ratio of 1,348 men to 829 women. .Dr- Charies Hathaway, Dean, CoUege of Scierfce and Mathematics, does-*not find these-figures surprising. "In the United States the number of women in the science and engineering fields has traditionally been low in comparison with other coun¬ tries," he said. "One of the ma¬ jor reasons is there has tieen no visible role models for women in this country. At the tum of the century Poland pro¬ duced some outstanding women physicists. In France Madam Curie had a dramatic effect," continued Hathaway. "The Russians also have more women in these fields, primarily because World War II had a devastating effect on the male population, and women were called upon to take up the slack. The Japanese and Chinese have also traditionally had women in these fields." Mathematics has not receiv¬ ed enough emphasis in the United States according to Dr. Hathaway, and the quan¬ titative professions are suffer¬ ing for it. "Ttiere is a serious problem in math in tlie U.S., and it is reaching a crisis point," said Hathaway. "Japan, a small country tums out. numerically, more engineers per year than the U.S. does." Tfie College of Social and Behavioral Sciences, compos¬ ed primarily of the service fields, has traditionally at¬ tracted more women than men, and tlie new figures reflect little ctiange In this un¬ balanced rathi.
