Dissent meeting to air

various campus opinions Symposium probes drug abuse

D . . r n D D V C T TT T T T r A \ T .

By ALISON AUDRETSCH The fundamental right to dissent ,to differ from the group, has currently been ques- tioned. In an effort to find the opinions and attitudes in Alfred to aid in formulating a policy on dissent, since the present guidelines are an emergency measure, there will be an open meeting on dissent, Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the Parent's Lounge.

The program will be a brief presentation of most of the views in Alfred by la panel, followed' by open discussion with the floor. The panel moderator and discussion leaders will be Dr. John Stull. Panel members will fee: Dr. L. Ruch- elman and Leslie Gardiner,

conservatives; Prof. R. Tur- ner, independent liberal, and Dr. R. Young, radical.

These men will represent certain basic attitudes, although they may not firmly believe in them, because the 'advocates of these attitudes are indisposed to formal participation in the program.

The meeting has been organized by the Student Life Com- mittee at the urging of Presi- dent Miles and the student Conduct Committee. It will provide anyone concerned with Alfred's policy on dissent to

"speak, or forever hold his peace," in a situation designed to provide a constructive discussion of any and all ideas presented.

By COREY SULLIVAN Four authorities on narco- tics presented a symposium Monday evening in the Campus Center on "Use and Abuse of Illicit Drugs." Fred Gertz was the moderator of the symposium, sponsored by the Politi- cal Affairs Ofoib.

Dr. Henry Brill, vice chairman of the New York State Narcotic Control Commission, said he does not approve of using marijuana to relieve ten- sion.

Often, according to Brill, marijuana is a symptom of a problem. That drug aggravates emotiorial problems.

Brill said he has studied the British "system" of drug control. The British never needed drug control legislation, according to Brill, because they

The demonstrators were protesting, among other things, mandatory R.O.T.C. on the Al- fred campus, land the fact that the University lacks a specific history course focusing upon the Negro in America.

The review (board set up to hear the cases scheduled final hearings for the group of demonstrators for Monday, May 20.

Effective today, Dr. Michael Kay, who, along with the seven students, refused to remove himself from the field after being requested to do so by the dean, has been dismissed from the University. Procedures to be followed in the dismissal proceedings "involve full due process including a hearing (if so requested) before (his) peers," according to President Miles.

Kay commented to the Fiat last night: "I consider the action of the president and the deans arbitrary, without following a semblance of due process and, if not reversed, ac- tionable. I intend to contest my dismissal to the fullest ex- tent."

had no drug problem. Now they are adopting a system similar to that of the United States.

Rudolph Deutsch, Resident Agent-in-Chlarge, Buffalo Of- fice of the Federal Bureau of Drug Abuse Control, said he is afraid of drugs. Cocaine and marijuana are probably hallu- cinogens, he said.

Deutsch said his bureau makes arrests hoping to deter someone from using drugs.

They know they cannot stop drug traffic, but would like to slow it down, he said. They try to find pushers.

Deutsch said police try to get pushers to remove the drug problem. They do not ar- rest Addicts unless they are involved in crimes.

DeutsCh. who has bought drugs 'from pushers, said' many pushers are in the business only for money; they themselves fear drugs.

Dr. S. Mouohly Small, professor and chairman, department of psychology at Buffalo, Said that finally the intoxicant in marijuana has been found, after thousands of years of the drug's use.

Legal pot?

While there is an organization which wants to legalize marijuana (LeMar), Small said the group Should first discuss marijuana.

Marijuanla's properties vary widely depending on age, and where grown. "Laicing" the drug with a more potent hallucinogen produces a differ- ent effect, said Small.

Small warned' lagainst using drugs, even to those who have already experimented, because one can never, be certain of the exact contents or potency of the drug.

Mariiuana is a hallucinogen, according to Smtall. It causes

Fred Gertz, moderator quently, he added.

Smoking marijuana produces the most potent effect, because heat changes the basic intoxicant off tihe drug, Small said.

In a test on 30 subjects, small doses of marijuana first produced an increase in pulse rates and made the

senses

keener. With larger dose the subjects experienced illusions and delusions. Dr. Small said there is no doubt that increas- ing doses of mlarijuana will lead to mental patients.

Drug usage on campus is a social problem like identity and conformity problems, according to Small.

Drug purpose

Assistant Educational Direc- tor James Smith of the New York Urban League Said drugs serve a purpose and have a place in society.

Smith said there is a chance of brain damage from use of hard drugs, but he does not oppose heroin. He said heroin users are apparently happy. He does not believe use of mari- juana leads to use of hard drugs.

The main problem of drug usage is the crime related to it. Laist Christmas in New York City Over $2.9 billion was stol- en to support drug usage.

Drug addicts often want to get rid of their habit, but doing so is difficult, said' Smith.

Therapy in the New York Ur- ban League reaffirms the "self- hood" off the addict, he added.

"Establishment frustrations"

and lack of communication lead to drug addiction, said!

Smith. To solve the problem:

"get involved," he affirmed.

W A G B chooses officers

New officers were installed at the final meeting of the Wo m e n ' s Athletic Governing Board on Tuesday, May 7.

Jeanette Kolk became the new president with Joyce Panzrel- la as vic-president, Jeanne Markunas as secretary, and Gwendolyn Myers and Judy Ivers as Co-Publicity Managers.

It was at this time that Gwendolyn Myers and Tammy Fischell reported on the CNY- WARA Conference which they had attended on May 3 and 4 at Keuka College.

The primary purpose of the conference was to schedule the 1969-69 sportsday calendar. Also Alfred volunteered its services in helping to re- vise the CNYWARA constitution. A meeting will be held at Wells College in the future.

The latter part of the meet- dog was the election of those girls deserving to receive awards at the Moving-Up Day assembly. The board elected to give Alfred blazers to Diane Lasseil, Jeanette Kolk, and Georgette Riege.

The recipients had to have received the Silver Key and

had to be elected for their outstanding qualities of leader- ship, athletic ability and per- sonality.

The last award presented by WAGB was the Mitchell-March Award. This is the highest award that a girl can receive for her athletic ability.

The recipient had to be a senior who had received a blazer and had shown leader- ship and athletic ability. Al- thea Green received this hon- or.

The Choice 68 results are in.

Nationally, the top five first choice candidates were McCar- thy, with 286,000 votes; Ken- nedy, with 214,000; Nixon,

197,000; Rockefeller, 116,000;

and Johnson, 57,000.

At Alfred, McCarthy was first with 348 votes; the other top four were Rockefeller, 241;

Nixon, 221; RFK, 185; and LBJ, 69.

Locally, the vote on military action in Vietnam was as

follows: 516 wanted a reduct- ion in military action; 257

wanted an all-out effort; 228 wanted1 withdrawal; 133 wanted increased military action, while 106 wanted to maintain military action at the current level.

The local vote on bombing in Vietnam follows: 357 voted for cessation; 357 voted for suspension; 328 voted for in- tensification. 144 wanted to maintain the current level of bombing, while 53 voted for use of nuclear bombs.

To solve the urban crisis, 552 Alfred voters said education is most important. 148 voted for riot control, 104 for housing, and 14 local voters said incentives and subsidies to corporations would best solve the crisis.

College graduates sought for secretarial positions

What makes a good secretary?

According to a survey of 100 business exectuitives in New York City conducted by the Career Course of College Wo- men, a secretarial slcihool for cofllege students, the three

¡most important qualities of a good secretary are: Intelli- gence, good! skills, and1 good appearance.

Also, «he study showed that the boss values higihly the secretary who is diplomatic, dis- creet, politically savvy, organized, emotionally Stable and on time in the morning. In brief, the message for college girls starting their first job is to work hard' and keep their cool.

What annoys men most laibout secretaries? Almost in

unison, the respondents berat- ed girls who did Sloppy work, received too many personal calls, were away from their desks too much, unable to handle phone messages and wiho were unable to grasp the nature of the job.

Said one vice president of a major publishing house: "We Wad one secretary with us for three months, and found Out she thought she was working for an insurance company."

Two findings of particular interest to the college student

are that 86% of the respon- dent preferred college girls for secretaries and recognized they would have to pay them more than the high school graduate; arid while secretarial sHcUOis are essential pre- requisites for a job (all respondents demlanded b o t h shorthand and' typing, rating accuracy in both skills more important than speed), a high percentage of the men said they are looking for secretaries who show initiative, and who are willing to assume other duties, such as writing letters and speeches, doing basic research, and handling special

events of the company.

Program announced for alumni reunion weekend

Doug McComb is basically an egocentric being and the problem is that we don't realize just how egocentric he is, said Doug.

By nature we seek personal security, but we must find it for all man. We really don't understand our basic needs at the present.

Our nation believes in freedom under law, yet sometimes our citizens have to fight for their freedom. One example is the labor movement of thir- ty years ago, and the steel strike of 1937, one of the bloodiest riats in our history.

Now black men are desperate- ly fighting for real freedom.

Leisure time presents a big problem now, said Doug. The main problem here is the ability to reach out and become involved with others. We think that one day we will be able to communicate by the mass media.

The poor spend their leisure time in want and misery, while the rich spend it in idleness and abundance. Factory work- ers work hard eight hours a day, and go out to the local bar for the evening.

What will happen when men work only four hours a day?

How will we develop our society so that we understand each other better? We keep building commercial complex- es without any consideration for the people who will man them. No one goes to the loc-

al store where they know the proprietor anymore. They treat themselves like numbers, and don't even know the people on their own block.

A mother living in a ten- story building cannot watch her children properly and "lias fear for their safety if she lets them go out to play. Our gov- ernmental programof urban renewal has failed."^

Doug stated that bureacra- cy cannot possibly handle the problem with its impersonal approach. We need people really involved with the problems of the ghettoes, for in- stance.

Programs should concentrate on other things besides housing and jobs. We have to teach people to get more out of life than just their pay-"

check. i Responsible people in the

civil rights movement are asking us if we want to live in a society wrought with fear or if we'want to reach out for greater human understanding.

Martin Luther King said, "I have a dre&m." But dreams are not made true overnight, said Doug.

People working for better community development are the only ones who can help.

The question, Doug concluded, is whether we want to retreat into arsenals or whether we tare about more than just physical survival.

The annual alumni reunion weekend will coincide again this year with commencement weekend, affording alumni an opportunity for aiuimni to take note of the Changes that have taken place at the University, to renew old friendships, and to witness the graduation of the future alumni of Alfred.

Brecht, Ionesco plays produced

By LEWIS SILVERMAN On May 10 and 11, Alfred University Theatre's Footlight Cluib presented three one act plays by Brecht and Ionesco.

This presentation, done in arena type stage in the mien's gymnasium, was part of the Cultural Programs Council events planned for Parent's Weekend.

The first two plays done, The Beggar and the Dead Dog and A Day in the Life of the Great Scholar Wu, were written by Bertolt Brecht. The third and1

last play 'done was Maid to Marry by Eugene Ionesco.

The presentation of the plays was in a simplified, yet adequate, non-realistic manner. With a minimal amount of painted flats the arena stage was used in this abstract manner.

Tyrone Guy's scene construc- tion and painting were suffi- cient considering the intent of Ionesco and Brecht. Both these playwrights are making an intensive study of society and the individual; the simplified setting and the arena staging are perfect technical aids in promoting audience- character relationship.

The audience, in this open and bare staging, senses the doseness and the immediacy of the playwright's statement through this direct attachment to the actors.

Make-up and costuming were factors that were, highlighted and exploited in a successful manner in creating the signifi- cant and prevalent mood throughout the three produc- tions. The first two plays were distinctly Oriental while the third production was western and contemporary.

In The. Beggar and the Dead Dog, Brecht portrays a heroic emperor, played by Daniel Co- hen, overwhelmed and aston- ished at the frankness of a b e g g a r characterized by George Lee.

Cohen, as was the case in Volpone, presented a fine physical appearance for the role;

however, the actor seemed to overact and blur his rapid' speech in an incomprehensible manner. Cohen, nevertheless, has a dramtic vitality that has been noted in all his roles in the Faotlight dub. This blur- ring is just a result of the rapidness and over-enthusiasm

<rf his speech

George Lee gave an adequate performance as the blind pau- per. Ironically enough the meek and humble stature of the beggar, as portrayed by Lee, completely dominated this play.

One advantage for a reviewer and for that matter a director and an actor in an arena theatre is the lability to view the actor and the audience in its immediate reaction to the spoken line.

Although this play showed the beggar only aware and Sure of the love and death of his dag, the audience seemed to be left in a state of dissat- isfaction. The rather short length of time Of the portrayal of Brecht's ideas did not do justice to the number and nature of the themes that were exposed in the play The Beg- gar and the Dead Dog.

Game theory

In its first American production, Brecht's A Day in the life of the Great Scholar Wu was a bit more incoherent in plot and statement for the au- dince. Wu, superbly done by John McGuire, is in the midst

of the hypocritical and highly contemporary "game theory"

of life.

Nature's greatest gift to Wu is. ''stretching on's legs under the table of the rich." Wu cun- ningly eats his way through the homes of several wealthy merchants maintaining h i s great ability to "smile through all humiliation."

In this play one senses ting- es of the "'bend with the wind"

philosophy of Brecht's "Moth- er Courage."

At times some of the scenes

— eOocially those between^

Shiao, very well done by Keith Gregory, and Wu — fell into a vein of slapstick comedy.

This overt humor and hypocritically comical cliches, on hon- or, from the all-but-honoraible Wu, presented the audience with a fine balance of physical comedy and true wit.

Keith Gregory, who was recently noted for his extremely adept portrayal in Volpone, once again ignited the audience's enthusiasm.

It seems that Gregory has the ability to emphasize the minute qualities, such as the' mannerisms of an old man, with remarkable accuracy that is very noticeable to the view- ing audience. His part as the ricih m!an Shiao was more than adequately fulfilled.

As the honor and virtue that is so hypocritically drenched throughout this one-act play come® to an end, Wu adlmits that we cannot concern our- selves with anything other than feeding our stomachs.

The obvious result of the action comes about when Wu says, "Science and fine arts will have to worry about themselves."

Reality to Wu is only deceiv- ing the next man out of a de- cent meal. Although the statement must be extended and broadened, it is a vital com- mentary on our present society.

As stated before, this play, doiie exceptionally well, left the audienc in a more fulfilled and noticeably satisfied state than the first production.

Ionesco play

This reviewer, after the recent production of Oonesco's Happy Days, faced the last play of the evening with a note of apprehension. Happy Day when done at Alfred left the audience in a state of bore- dom and incomprehensibility.

However, this Was not the case in Maid to Marry.

Alison Audretsch, the lady, and Jerome Gotthainer, the gentleman, aptly portrayed this fiasco of no communication and total contradiction.

Ionesco cleverly sets up some grandly declarative statements by the gentleman, which he himself contradicts and which, of cotorse, the lady fu!Hy agrees with.

The responsibility of dissent

Remember the demonstration on Saturday? At the R.O.T.C.

drill. Where the participants were finally faced with suspension from the University.

To be willing to risk such a punishment, the demonstrators must have believed in something. Presumably, it was in this case, that maridatory R.O.T.C. should be abolished on this campus. Either that, or perhaps, as has often been suspected, they were merely protesting for the sake of protesting.

As the two characters throw back at each other contradic- tory cliches about life, man, and society, one can sense this ironically sad and highly pes- simistic "lost nature" in Which Ionesco portrays man.

The climax of this pessimis- tic, yet ironically funny exchange, comes when the lady introduces her "daughter", played by Dale Schlyer, to the gentleman. Besides entering the stage from behind the ex- pecant adults "the sweet little daughter" comes trouncing in as a grubby male motorcycle gangsman. The height of the absurdity is finally achieved at this point in the play.

Ionesco's ending for the play is just as abrupt and ab- surd as the rest of the play.

As soon as the grubby beast enters the stage, there is a black-out with flashing psyche- delic lights and music.

The third play seemed ap- propos for Parents' Weekend.

Besides the older generation being lost in cliches that are trite and often self-contradic- tory, there is a definite gulf between the two generations.

This obvious lack of communication, between the older generation, of the parents, and the younger generation, of the children, was comically treat- ed in this play.

I doubt if Ionsco feels that this problem of no communication, which is the root of many other problems in our society, is as funny as was portrayed last week-end by the Faotlight Club.

As aptly stated on the play- bill, this theatrical group re- linquished "the temptation of a teach-in on Breciht and Ion- esco . . . the first order of business is to give pleasure.

Since playwrights are concerned to know the wortd for what it is, enlightenment is also involved." The production by the Footlight Club was done well theatrically and was enter- taining.

Unlike the recent Houseman production, professor C. D.

Smith's choice and placement of plays was provocative and congruent in mood and tem- perament for the audience throughout the evening.

In this recent production by and theatrical enjoyment took the Footlight dub, pleasure precedence over a highly di- dactic and instructive lesson about the social estrangement of mankind.

MEMORIAL SERVICE Memorial services for Sheila Richardson will be held at the Amherst Community Church, 77 Washington Highway, Sny-

der, N.Y., Friday evening at 8 p.m. Flowers are gratefully refused. Memorial gifts may be made in Miss Richardson's name to Alfred University or to the Memorial Fund of the above church.

Unable to comprehend why anyone would risk suspension for the sake of nothing, we must assume that the former is the case and that the demonstrators are honestly against the institution of mandatory R.O.T.C.

The arguments against R.O.T.C. range from the fact that anything that is mandatory in a liberal arts college is out of place by virtue of the supposed emphasis on freedom of choice in such an institution, to the fact that opposition to the Vi- etnam war has led many to opposition to the whole system of obligatory military service.

It seems that the members of S.D.S. and their sympathizers tend toward the latter view. They are not so much opposed to mandatory R.O.T.C. per se as they are to universal conscrip- tion.

The sentiments against the war in Viet Nam have led a number of people to re-evaluate their position on military service in general. The traditional watchword of "my country, right or wrong," has been replaced in many minds with a philosophy that my country is wrong and therefore does not de- serve my support.

Such a view does not presuppose that these people are Communists or even that they are anti-American, anymore than their demonstration proved, as several enraged parents in the audience suggested, that they are marijuana users. However, such a position is an indication that they have ceased to believe in the myths of nationalism and unquestioning loyalty to their country.

Willingness to dissent is an admirable trait when dissent is based on a clear understanding of the issues. Those taking part in the demonstration on Saturday who realized what they were protesting and Who understood the possible consequences of their action, are to be admired for their stand, but never pitied for the repercussions they face.

On the contrary, anyone who protests merely for the sake of excitement, are to be pitied in the long run whether or not Le faces suspension at this time.

Black power advocates define objectives

By IRWIN BERLIN

"We want everything that America wants — but more."

This was the main definition of black power given by Minis- ter Franklin Florence at last Friday's lecture in Howell Hall.

The lecture was entitled

"Black Power: Theology and Politics of a People." The speakers were Dr. Harvey Gu- thrie, professor of .Old Testa- jnent at the Episcopal Theolog- ical Seminary in Cambridge, Mass.; and Florence, who was the first president of FIGHT in Rochester.

Florence ably substituted for intended speaker, Dr.

Charles Hamilton, who was in Chicago attending a sit-in demonstration.

An interested audience lis- tened as the two authorities expounded on black pow?r.

and the problem that faces the white community because of it.

With the death of Martin Luther King last month. Flor- etee told of a reassessment of position by the black community. King v/as assassinated by a white racist, again proving that violence is as American as cherry pie. 185 cities burned after King's déath, Amierica noticing for the first time the black community's use of violence.

I rebutted this by pointing to the riots of the past two summers, but Florence said that v/hites have been more violent in the past than blacks ever dared to be.

Florence warned that 1968 could well be the turning point of true violence.

The black community is ready to do whatever is neces- sary to be free, shedding their

own blood to secure human rights among "all downtrod- den peoples."

Blacks are fed up with inte- gration, seeing that the white institutions did not want this.

The blacks tried all the "ins,"

but never did get in.

Franklin Florence Florence says that the pos- sibility of a bloody revolution certainly exists, but that this fate rests in the hands of white America.

Dr. Guthrie, as the theolog- ical consultant, would ascribe

no significance to Florence's comments. He posed three aca-

demic assumptions made by white America in the past, all which can be summed up in one word: reconciliation.

The role of th|e religious community has been to intro- duce Jesus as the healer who could "lay over the frustrations of life." Now the same community is faced with a dis- ruptive issue which supercedes the former situation.

Using examples from the Pible, Guthrie indicated that God has always seemed to be on one side or another, (the Isrealites leafing Egypt, and later the Zealot cult).

Tradition, meaning justice and freedom, takes precedence historically, over reconciliation. Today the hierarchy "bf churches must engage in activities that are not compromising.

According to Guthrie, those who are white, Christian, and western, have wrongly assum- ed that they were the makers of history. We are becoming

aware that the vast world is not white, Christian, or western, but sometimes quite dif- ferent.

Black Power is a concrete reminder that cannot be es- caped. It is not possible to re- sort to sentimentalities for solutions, Guthrie says, nor can we become despondent and seek solace in a bottle or in drugs.

Guthrie said that while the religious community ,__has always tried to attack serious- ness to the Biblical awareness of history, the black community (including Martin L. King), has taken the message too seriously.

The imagery, today and in Egypt of Biblical times, is very much the same. Our new im-*

age is like that in The Robber Barons, somewhat maudlin, but nevertheless correct.

Guthrie is too abstract here for my liking; however, I ac- cept his statement that we can

work our way realistically out of this image. Guthrie warns that this cannot be believed cheaply. One cannot look at the United States in 1968 and reach an idealist answer.

The lectures were fascinat-

Dr. Harvey Guthrie ing, if not somehow frighten-

ing in their common sense evaluation of black power.

Florence was often funny, but the humor was bitter and he got his message across.

Both speakers referred to the New Testament passage of

"Neither Jew nor Greek . . . all are one in Jesus." Florence said that black power has finally brought out the hypocrisy

of t h e white community.

"White folks preach one thing and practice another."

He related some experiences he has had with religious leaders, who instead of having a

"respect for the humanity of man," were compromising rac- ists. "We have nothing personally against nigras. You have your Church; we have ours."

To evaluate the lecture is difficult. It raised provoking questions, some of which were posed in the question-answer period that followed. For me the question of "why violegpe"

has not been satisfactorily answered.

During the riots that took place in Rochester following King's assassination, as well as during last summer's riots.

Florence wtas one of the leaders asking the people to exer- cise control. But the blacks who are for unrestrained violence far outnumber those, who desire control.

The white community that sympathizes with the black community and want to do something constructive, were advised by Florence to stay in t h e i r own neighborhoods.

There is a distinct need to

"un-brainwash" their white neighbors. To me, this seems the only course that is really open to America.

Professors seen as expendable

By LARRY S. FRIEDMAN An open letter to the Admin- istration of Alfred University concerning faculty and student participation in demonstrations:

I am writing this open letter in the hope that Alfred Unive- sity will not become lanother

"Columbia." While the right to dissent cannot be denied, I do believe that the course of events wftiidh Wave transpired during the present academic year and which has culminated!

in the demonstration this past weekend will eventually des- troy the educational system at this University.

Fraternity Spring Weekend

Some contend that he was referring to the mock convention held on the 26th and 27th of April. Basing tMs leltter on the assumption tjhat this is what the good professar was speaking of, I wonder if he has managed to clean all of the

sand from his fingernails.

I would like to congratulate Prof. Hils and the S.D.S for the role they played in making the Convention as realistic as possible. Their actions at the various Convention fun-

ctions were similar to those taken by radical groups at the real conventions in 1964 and What they will be doing at Chi- cago and Miami this summer.

Prof. Hils has charged that your coverage was incomplete.

The Fialt seemed to concentrate its efforts on a Convention in- volving over 500 people rather than such activities as a Teach-in composed of almost 200. I sympathize with Prof.

Hils here, butt we must keep in mind that the FIAT LUX has only eight pages and is forced to delimit its coverage on some issues in order to re- port on what is of primary interest to its readers.

The Convention's Executive Committee was also a trifle incensed over certain inaccur- acies in your coverage. We decided a g a i n s t complaining abdut them, however, as there is no use crying over Spilt milk and it might also seem a friv- olous attempt for free publicity for our organization.

In conclusion, we belive that the S.D.S. has been calling for

positive political involvement since its inception in Alfred.

Two weeks ago the students nominated a man who they felt could run this country capab- ly. They worked out a political platform which can be applied to the modern American scene.

In short, they took positve political action to influence their fellow students, their community, and their nation.

There was no violence; there was little negativism; but there was a" reaffirmation of Ameri- can democracy on ithe part of all of those who became involved in the Mock Republican

Convention.

Respectfully yours, Jerry Kolisch Vice-President

The Political Affairs Club of Alfred

I further believe that a repe- tition of last weekend's inci- dent should not be tolerated by this Administration. Such a total lack of respect for parents as well as for the entire ROTC contingent is entirely in- excusable.

Interfering with the planned events of the weekend accom- plished 'absolutely nothing ex- cept a total alienation of a sub- stantial portion, if not all, of those involved in the Parent's Day programi.

This event as well as others hlave prompted me to write this letter in the hope that if enough concerned individuals express their distaste for the methods employed by these demonstrators, the Administra- tion will perhaps review its policy on demonstrations and the penalities involved.

Faculty involvement Concerning faculty participation in these demonstrations, I assert my belief that the first obligation of any professor is to teach; NOT to indoctrinate, NOT to incite, NOT to demonstrate, and positively NOT to cancel class in favor of some demonstration.

The teaching experience does not end with a 50 minute period, but rather continues outside of the immediate classroom. A professor's influence is as Strongly felt Over a cup of coffee as it is felt in the actual lecture hall.

Every faculty member has the right to his or her own opinions and the right to dissent Should not be prohibited, but when Such opinions intentionally interfere with the students primary goal in college, I must take a stand.

It must be remembered that the reason we are in college, is to learn, not to be indoctrin- ated and not to be told when we can attend class.

I fully realize that I will in- evitably be rebutted with the statement that dissent is also an integral part of the educa- tional process; since it exposes areas of discontent in our soci- ety. This is in part true, but there is a time and a place for everything.

While some students may prefer to demonstrate rather than attend class, I believe that I am speaking for the majority who wish to learn in the classroom, father than be co- erced into attending a demonstration for an out-of-class pa-' per, or be denied the classroom situation by a professor who plaices a demonstration above his students.

Desire to learn To such professors, I im- plore you to realize that the majority of students 'dies&re to learn and not to demonstrate. Every claSs you cancel deprives us students of one more period in a course which we have elected to take and which we have paid for.

In addition, every time you involve academia with a demonstration, either by wearing your academic gown or by any other manner, remember that you are degrading the very source of your intellectual dis- tinction.

The Administration must realize that such professors, re- gardless of their teaching ability, are denying us our rights as students.

If we are told that clalsses will not be held so that a professor may demonstrate, something is tragically wrong with . Alfred's structure.

If teachers are allowed to incite students to show their total disrespect for parents, then again something is tragi-

cally wrong. "A If protest cannot be held af

a time when others will not be affected, then the majority must suffer in favor of a minority.

Expendable professors However, I feel that the Ad- ministration can and will do better. I believe that any professor who blatantly places his views above our interests; wlho intentionally denies the majority its rights should have his or her contract seriously re- viewed.

It may seem unnecessarily (Continued on Page 7) FIAT LUX Alfred, N.Y

The Senate-Sponsored Coor- dinating Committee which had been Set up the week before, Teported that it would take

"votes on the various issues at the residences. After this vot- ing, the proposals will >be tak-

before the president.

The matter of course evaluation was 'discussed, and it was decided that the questionnaires

The treasurer was not sure how much money the Senate had, but he guessed that there was about $1000. A $25 appro- priation for the Alfred Music

• Society was discussed and will be voted on at today's meeting.

President Randy Peyton brought up the question of what to do with the false ceil- ing for the gym which the Sen- ate had once bought. Because it had only been used about three times, the Senate decid- d to give it to someone who would have more use for it.

Peyton reported that it had been offered to Alfred-Almond but they did nlot want it. Some- one suggested that it be goven to the Campus Center Bolard which might be able to rent it out occasionally.

The meeting ended with announcements. Members were reminded laibduit the Computer Dance, the Senate Banquet, the Men's Judiciary applications, and Moving-Up Day. After one

final announcement that a file Cabinet needed cleaning out.

the meeting was adjourned.

This week's meeting will be at 7:30 tonight in rooms B and C of the Campus Center.

previous knowledge, the training of new leaders and schol- ars, and the extension of know ledge, Fasano stressed that the university should be a place where a passion for truth can

be developed.

Afiter graduation, students must evaluate what they have learned and put their theories

into practice. It is then that one can judge the success of the university.

"Education is a big business"

but a university must remember its purpose. It must pre- pare students to become informed citizens who will seek the truth.

Fasano ended his speech by strongly urging students to evaluate things for themselves without accepting the word of

others. He stressed that they should know the aims and be-

liefs of any organization before joining so that they will not regret their decision later.

Various presentations and awards were made before Fa- sano's speech. The 1968 Kan-

rights to learn, then they too are expendable.

K, on the other hand, they are capable of protesting with-

out interfering with anyone else, then their place on campus should be guaranteed.

Th Administration must take a firm position. It mlust, for the sake of its very existence, strengthen its guidelines on demonstrations.

The educational structure must not be undermined by a small group of individuals;

for as the American philan- thropist Peter Cooper once îsjaid: "Neither piety, virtue, nor liberty can long flourish in a community where the education of youth is neglect- ed.''

Course evaluation forms completed

The course evaluation questionnaires are now complete and ready for distribution. Co- pies will be distributed to fac- ility and students early next week.

The questionnaire js the work of students who wish to give their fellow students a chance to voice opinions on courses taken during the fall 1967-68 semester. Answers to both short and essay questions should be written on the questionnaire.

A circled 1 answer indicates a very favorable opinion; a circled ,5 answer indicates an extremely unfavorable opinion. The other numbers signi- fy intermediate degrees.

Questionnaires will be distri- buteid by senate and' course evaluation committee members. They may be returned to these persons or to a collec- tion box in the Gampiis Cen- ter,

It is hoped! that this pam- phlet can became an important part of Atflred University. It should help students, especially incoming freshmen and transfer students choose the courses land professors most suited to their study habits and speoilal aptitudes.

It is in the interest of the student body to fill out the questionnaires in a responsible manner. Any questions may be addressed to Trade Edwards, John Rice, or Dan Krevolin.
