authority, we are charged with the accompanying inescapable responsibility to further
a democratic community marked by mature citizenship habits, attitudes, and skills;
and recognizing that this degree of responsibility will be manifested in the total
community when we, as individuals, take our places there; do herein define and organize
this collective authority into a student association and, guarantee that our use of
it will always be in harmony with our trust.
