Student power, the full and equal participation of students in the decision-making process of their educational institution, has become a major goal of American student leaders. This concern is not a new outburst of self-importance but is rather a continuation of the concept of education illustrated by student activities supporting civil rights.

The Council should speed the discussion on its way; the Council's final endorsement can come later.
