National Student Organization representatives from approximately to New England colleges will convene in Emerson Hall at 1 o'clock today to devise a joint general platform to be followed at the NSO national convention slated for September at the University of Wisconsin in Madison.
"With a series of four meetings scheduled for today and tomorrow, discussion at the New England regional convention will center around the NSO constitution draft prepared by the staff and executive committee of the NSO," Miss Miriam Haskell, Smith '47, and temporary regional chairwoman, asserted last night.
"Particular attention will be paid to the areas of disagreement in the constitution so that new members of the regional committee will be better acquainted will all issues bound to come up at the national convention," Miss Haskell said.
"Delegates should be thinking of how they would like campuses as well as regional and national committees, to operate," she added.
