Seniors To Teach Outside Twenty-one elementary block seniors will get a taste of teach-ing in the rough early in October, when they help supervise outdoor classes spon-sored by the Frederick County Board of Education. The group will leave Fri-day, Oct 7, for Camp Green-top, ordinarily a camp for crippled children, near Thur-mont, Md., in the Catoctin Mountains. Towson's student teachers will instruct sixth grade classes from Washington, New Market, and Middleton schools. All the towns are in Frederick County. ""The idea,"" Dr. Walter W. Williamson, professor of the local class said, ""is to have the type of program that the chil-dren cannot receive in the classroom. ""Some of the activities planned for the children are forestry, fishing, and lum-bering. Map, rock, and star study are also planned."" Both the children and their instructors will live at the camp for the week, all expenses being picked up by the Frederick County Board of Education. Frederick County has had this kind of program for several years. This is the first time in the last three years that stu-dents from Tcrwson have partici-pated. SGA Backs Hidamm; Money Policy' OK'd After years of playing it by ear, the SGA now has a written financial policy, thanks to its Budget Committee and a recep-tive Senate on Tuesday. The Senate unanimously pass-ed on Tuesday a detailed, five-page- long, statement of proce-dures and policy designed during the summer by Treas-urer Dale Hickman and her Budget Committee. Nothing of any magnitude was changed in procedures of past years. The main point of the policy is that it is now written down for all to see. Covered in the policy are pro-cedures for budget hearings, use of monies allocated during the hearings, procedures for get-ting petty cash, and specific duties of the SGA treasurer and assistants. The policy was passed with-out amendment by voice vote. SGA President Bob High-smith said after the Senate ad-journed that he considers the policy ""one of the major con-tributions to the college by this administration."" The meeting Tuesday was the first of the year, and the smoothest in the recent history of the meetings. Not one neg-ative vote was registered on any of the issues brought to the floor. In other business transacted Tuesday, the Senate reinstated the Circle K Club to member-ship. Circle K had been dropped from the roll last year for not sending a representative to Senate meetings.
