Council Chairman Richard S. Eisert '88 said that an elected representative has a "mandate" from his constituents to serve in the student government and that it is not against council policy for a student on probation to serve.
Disciplinary probation is kept confidential, Jewett said, adding, "Constituencies voting may not have the information to judge a person when they vote for him."
Students on disciplinary probation must petition the Ad Board for permission to participate in extracurricular activities. Mitchell did so, but the closed-door disciplinary body refused his request.
Mitchell said the Ad Board decided "such a position of responsibility and leadership would be unbecoming for a person on probation."
He said he will run for the council next term if there is an opening and if he can get Ad Board approval. Otherwise, he said he will run next fall when he no longer is on disciplinary probation.
