DL Rlf lit to Sp tal By Tom Brennen Serious objection must be raise d to the M&G's policy of censorshi p in regard to published and copywri ted poems. The issue in question is a p oem wr itten by Bill Knott who was a guest of the English Department last month. His poem had been quoted in an art icle which I wro te and appeared in the M&G. In readin g that issue I found that three crucial letters in a wellknown Saxon word had been deleted f rom the p oem , not from my anal ysis and impres sions of And yet the Editor of the M&G or a higher administrator has seen fit to desecrate and prositute this noble venture . By fundamentally restructuring the letters and words of the artist this censor considers his judgement and pr ejudices concerning 'good taste ' higher than that of the entire college community , more legal th an th at of the nat ion's courts , and more literar y in a cr itical sense than the publish er and editor who fir st printed the author 's works. Why Censorshi p? fha nnat Why the censor ship? Was the This , I feel, is,a ser ious breach wor d considered obscene ? Obon the art istic endeav ors.of the scene in the legal sense is depoet .

It would seem that a middle B would be 3.5, while a B- would be scaled at a 3.00 level. Thus, when a student at BSC has a B* or a B in any given course, lie is (under the present system) given a B-(3.00) credit for the course . "Evaluation is a primary necessity in education ," he said.

Sanders, Director of the Research and Evaluation Center announced. Arrangements for this center have been made through the efforts of Dr. Stuart Edwards, Director of Secondary Education , and Dr. Sanders. The number of BSC seniors finding need for the scores has been increasing. The establishing of this center will lessen the need for travel to other centers for these tests. College seniors preparing to teach, and teachers applying for positions in schools systems which encourage or require applicants to submit their scores on the National Teacher Examinations along with their other credentials, are eligible to take the tests. An increasing number of school systems are requiring these scores. There are two counties and ten of the large school systems in Pennsylvania which now require them. Last year more than 107,000 candidates took the examinations, which are -prepared and administered by Educational Testing Service of Princeton, New JerQUESTION FROM INTERVARSITY CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP: What is the diference betwee n Christmas , Buddamas , Islamma s, Judamas, Hindumas ?
