ACTION NARRATIVE
TAPE 95-6, SIDE A
CHAIRMAN MILLER called the Senate Rules Committee meeting to order
at 12:05 p.m.
CHAIRMAN MILLER brought HB 215 am (SUSPENSION OF STUDENTS) before
the committee. He directed attention to a Rules SCS which adds the
University of Alaska to the legislation.
WENDY REDMAN, representing the University of Alaska, in speaking to
the original intent of the legislation, said the reason it came up
was a student in Anchorage pulled a gun on a volunteer in the
school after school hours. Because that student wasn't attending
school at the time, the way the current law is written they
couldn't deal with the student.
Ms. Redman said the University has a law on the books from 1949
when there was just the president of the University that says only
the president of the University can expel or suspend students. The
Rules SCS will allow the president to delegate that authority to
the chancellor or another official on each campus, etc.

pleasure of the committee.
