Nationwide Colleges & Univers ities
Institutin g Chan ges & Reforms

Students Assume Relevant
Decision Makin g Position

College and universit y administrators , eager to make higher educat ion re levan t, are workin g with
students to bring all segments of
the university communit y into the
decision-making process. Members
of the National Association of
State Universities and Land-Grant
Colleges report that several universities have invited stude nts to
serve on committees to help select
new university administrators.
At the University of North Dakota students have participated in
the selection of a new college dean.
The State Board of Regents in Iowa has invited a committee of four
students to assist facult y and alumni in choosing a new president for
the University of Iowa.
Several institutions hav e completely restructured their form of
govern ance. One example is the
University of New Ham pshire 's
new unicameral system. A single
voting body, composed equally of
facult y and students , replaces the
present system of separate Student
and Universit y Senates.
A Faculty Senate , a Student benate and a joint group known as the
University Senate are part of the
reorganization plans of the University of Kansas. There will be substantial student membershi p on all
University Senate committees.
Students are represented on advisory councils within specific academic departments as well as on
governing councils of facult y senates. At Ohio Universit y, students
serv e as members on 38 un iver sity
committees. This includes the executive and priorities planning
committees of the universit y.

An Action Conference has been
established at the Universit y of
Florida. It has an equal numbe r of
students , administrators and faculty members , who are . studyin g
campus problems and encoura ging
a sense of communit y within the
university. The confe rence operates through task forces in ten
areas , with each task force makin g
recommendations to the conference
as a whole.
An experimental Student Cabinet , composed of the heads of student governments from 22 of the
State University of New York 's
campuses meets with SUNT's chancellor.- The aim is to promote constructive student involvement in
university-wide programs.
The Faculty Senate of New Mexico State Universit y is in its second year of having two students
on its 16 committees. The major
legislative body of the Universit y
of Utah , the Facult y Council , has
expanded its membershi p to include students and teachin g assistants.
The ombudsman is also coming
to the fore. University of South
Carolina students who have complaints against the faculty or administration get them heard and
remain anonymous under a new
ombudsman program . The ombudsman is a facult y member in the
USC School of Engineerin g. He
works with a committee of ten students. At the Universit y of Arizona , the assistant dean of men tours
residence halls as a walking ombudsman , to listen to complaints
and problems.

Compet it ion IFor Grants In
St udy Or Resiearch Abroad

Several weeks ago, the Institute
of International Edu cation officially opened its comp et it ion for
grant s for graduate study or research abroad , and for professional
trainin g in the creative and performin g arts durin g the academic
year 1970-71.
The p ur pose of the grants is to
increase mutual understa ndin g between the people of the U.S. 'and
other countries throu gh the exchan ge of persons , knowled ge and
skills.
HE annual ly conducts me competition for U.S. Government Awards
under the Fulbri ght-Ha ys Act and

Although U.S. Government funding
for the past year was severely cut
and the total number of grants reduced from 825 to approximately
275, it is expected that there will
be at least this number of awards
available for 1970-71.
C andidates w ho w ish to app ly for

Freshman Grades
Omitted To
Relieve Pressure

To reduce undue academic pressures on freshmen and to ease the
transition from high scfiool to college, the faculty at Douglass College has voted to omit freshman
first-term grade averages from the
cumulative averages of all Douglass students.
Present sophomores , juniors and
seniors have the option of retaining this first freshman semester
grade in their cumulative averages
if they desire.
In addition , students who have
earned grades of 5 durin g their
freshman and sophomore years and
satisfactorily repeated the course
involved will have only the new
grade included in the cumulative
average.
Although they will be dro pp ed
from the average , freshman grades
will still be important as the basis
for warnings and as a measure of
individual performance.
Beginning next fall , Douglass
will substitute a four-course load
for the present five-course pattern ,
It also voted to drop all specific
course requirements , substituting
instead a total of four courses selected from certain major cour se
grou pings.
"We hope the new curriculum
will be better adapted to the changing high school curriculum and
that it will recognize the proliferation of knowledge and the impossibility of covering it all ," commented Dean Margery S. Foster.
The aim of these chan ges (the
"mini-cum" proposal ) , according to
Dean F oster , is to reduce acad emic
pressure s and competitiveness for
a high cumulative avera ge. "The
facu lty felt that often freshman
grade s indicated more a bo u t th e
quality of a student' s high school
prepara tion than about her real
college ac h ievement. We h ope that
omitting these first grades will ease
the transition from high school to
college."

(New " York Times)—Colleges
and un iversities a cross the countr y
are hurriedly institu ting changes
and reforms , as administrators attempt to deal with student restiveness and to avoid the kind .of demonstrations that have shaken Ivy
League and other major universities.
Long-standing practices and regulations , ranging from a ban on
beer drinking at the Colorado State
University student center to the
p re po nde r a nce of def ense research
at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, are being increasin gly
challenged , and in many cases overturned.
"In terms of the situation as recently as five years ago, student involvement and participation has
dramatically increased ," said Dr.
Kenneth Roose, vice president of
the American Council on Education , which is beginnin g a study of
campus reforms.
"Even in areas where faculty resistence was strong, " he added ,
"the walls are crumbling. "
A lot of the chan ges that administrators hope will prove soothing
are essentially non-political. The
most common is the liberalization
of strict dormitory-visiting regulations that have irritated students
ever since there were coeds.
Others are far more political , involving increasing recruitment and
special programs for minority
group s and chan ges or abolition of
campus military programs. These
changes , and academic reforms impinging on the entrenched perogitives of older faculty members and
boards of trustees , have usually
come only after student protests
or the threat of protests.
At campuses across the country,
change has come in such areas as:
Black Studies programs and increased eiforts to recruit Negroes
and other minority groups.
The seating of students on policy-making committees.
Campus regulations , particularly
dormitory hours and women 's curfews.
The presence of the Reserve Officer Training Corps program.
Curriculum chan ges, and reforms
in departmental structure.
Nonscholastic issues, such as t he
university 's expansion into neighboring low-income areas.
Some of the chan ges have come
only after great turmoil , b ut at a
majority of schools reforms have
come less dramatically.
At Emory University in Atlanta ,
for instance , the proteste rs have
consisted largely of a handfu l of
picket s against recruiters from the
Dow Chemical Company. But studen ts sa y t he adm inistration no
longer sweeps aside proposals for
change as "financially impossible. "
And at Emory, student government powers have been expanded ,
and committees of the board of
t ru ste es and on mo st committees
of t h e un iversit y senate , the j oint
faculty • administ ration governing
body. Dormitory regul ations have

been liberalized so that only first
and second-quarter freshme n coeds
h ave cur f ew , and men 's dormitories
are now beginning to have 24-hour
open houses on weekends and one
weekday.
At the Uniyersity of Utah , it was
shown that the administration had
evinced a greater willingness to
seek out student opinion.
M an y of t he chan ges came only
af ter students had staged demonstrations , sit-ins or buildin g seizures. Others , however , came when
the administration responded to
proposals from the student governmnt , st uden t newspa per or other
channels and some came as administrators sought to avoid confrontation, disruption and adverse publicity.
At the University of Notre
Dame, whose president , the Rev.
Theodore Hesburgh , won accolades
from President Nixon for his warning that protesters would be given
15 minutes to desist or be suspended , activist students say that a
series of concessions have been
won from an administration fearful of a "bad-press. "
Manifestations of unrest at Notre
Dame began in 1960 with the "Corby riots " in front of Corby Hall ,
the residence of many of the university 's priests , protesting the 11
o'clock lights-out rule. The next
year , when a group of 19 fellow- •
ship nominees threatened to publish a critical 89-page report on the
university, the administratio n capitulated on lights out and compulsory attendance at Mass.
In 1963, the gtudent government
issued a report on student grievances , including a list of 13 demands , but the insur gency was
quashed when the university suspended publication of the student
weekly, "The Scholastic ," which
contained the report.
Three years later , however , a student government plot involvin g

Next year the enrollment of Bloomsburg State College will reach the
3700 mark, an increase of about 300. To facilitate this increase the incoming frjeshmen class will be made up of more commuting students
than any previous freshman class, due to the lack of dormitories and
dining facilities. The ratio of residents to commuters will be about 2 to
1 or 65% residents and 35% commuters. This year the ratio was closer to
3 to 1. It appears that a trend may be formulating, in which the commuter will become of greater importance to the college community. At
least there will be more of them around.
However, those who were responsible for choosing next year's Freshmen Orientation Committee have chosen to disregard the fact that one
out of every three freshmen they will be orienting will be a commuter.
Of the approximate 75 members there are only about 5 who commute to
the Bloomsburg campus, a 14 to 1 ratio. There seems to be an appalling
disproportional comparison between 14 to 1 and 2 to 1. There also seems
to be an appalling misunderstanding of the word "orientation" among
the Orientation Committee head-:.Can a resident student adequately and
effectively orient a commuting student, so to avoid the basic problems
of commuting? Can a resident student instruct the freshman in study
procedures, when the resident must only travel five minutes to his place
of study and the commuter must travel thirty-five or more? It appears
that those factors were not considered when setting up prerequisites for
placement'on the committee. In fact, it appears that the ability to orient
was not a prerequisite for placement.
Is the purpose of the Orientation Committee to harass the freshman
or is it to help them become acquainted with Bloomsburg State College?
If it is the former, they should change the name of the committee. If it
is the latter there should be a proportional number of commuters to
residents.
The immortal words of the French existentialist, Jean Paul Sartre,
seem to be applicable in this situation. Sartre said, "ce comite mange
merde!" No translation is necessary.

Siraujf tit ^/ rorn Stan
Because of position it's often
quite hard to sit calmly on the sidelines and not actually be able to
comment upon certain happenings
without being charged with being
a poor sport, a sore loser, or something of the sort. This is the posjtion I have been in since March 18
and I have abided by it. But now
I have a statement to make as a
columnist for this paper, as a member of College Council , a n d as a
citizen of the BSC community. The
event or events which brought this
article to the forefront was the
most recent and final College Council meeting in which the common
rules of ethics were shunned and
even civil courtesy dropped. I refer to J. Prosseda debacle which
concerned the seating of the VicePresident and Secretary of CGA in
which it was felt that to help the
President with his duties over the
summer (and also to TRY to uphold the constitution which has so
flag rantly been flaunted) both offices should be filled at this meeting. This motion was made by Miss
Kathy Wintersteen , President Day
Women's Association. To this motion came the first in a long line of
petty, idiotic, and asinine , comments from Prosseda. This time he
answered Kathy 's opening motion
by calling her a hypocrite! He
hadn't the polish to accept criticism without retorting with personal cuts. This was par for the
course throughout the night , for
when he got backed into a corner ,
and this happened continually
throughout the night , he had nothing substantial to defend the
charges brought to him.
No one was contesting Prosseda's
election (even though , as stated by
Mr. Muika , the necessary 1780 odd
votes were not cast for the Office
thus making even his election illegal) rather the appointment (unauthorized at that) of two members
to Council . Prosseda said that he
had not even thought about the ap-

pointments and so could not make
these important appointments on
such short notice. (This idea of
having the appointments made at
that meeting was the essence of
Wintersteen1s motion.) This statement of not being ready to make
the appointments Prosseda made
even though a picture was taken
several weeks prior which included
John Dasch (Prosseda's roommate )
as the next Vice-President of CGA
and J.* Lucrezzi as Secretary. He
all but called Mr. Boyd Buckingham a liar when Buckingham
stated that a notice was sent to his
(B.B.'s) office signed by Jean Reese
attesting to the appointment of
these two and for the release to
read not acting officers , b ut duly
elected officers !
Don't we live in a democracy? If
we do then the person with the
highest number of votes should end
up as the winner of any election.
But not here at BSC, for Prosseda
has appoi nted his roommate who
did n't even meet the eligibility requirements to run for office (his
2.1 is cer
tainly below the 2.3 eligibility requirement ,) and also Lucrezzi who came out second to Carol Yoder in the race for the Secretary's post. What explanation is
there to this? Well Carol heard it
straight from the horse's mouth
and you might as well hear it also
Ernie, neither of you are qualified
to hold office! So says our President , beca use he feels that not only
are you not fit to hold office , but
he cannot work with you! He wants
to, and has thus far, completely
disregarded the will of the people
and appointed opposite of the
choice of the mujo rity of the people!

I questioned the proceedings , not

o n m y beh a lf , but on the principle

of what I felt was right. Council
had given Prosseda the duty to fill
these offices with the approval of
Council , yet when the same Council questioned these supposed ap-

pointments, they were told by Prosseda that there was no sense appointing people who didn't agree
with him therefore he would appoint whom he wanted. What was
the sense of holding five elections?
Why did n't we j ust elect the President and have him appoint the
rest of the officers. This seems to
be Prosseda's philosophy.
Though I tried to remain as respectful and stoic as possible, I became a bit ruffled at comments directed at me concerning why I
should DARE question what was
going on!! This being by Jean
Reese (not even a member of
Council) and by Prosseda himself
who couldn't think fast enough to
retort in any logical manner to one
of my inquiries other than he ORDERED me to stop smacking my
lips! Why I would bring anything
so idiotic and simple out has been
done simply to illustrate the petty
and childish thinking and reasoning which is so typical of our President in all respects.
wnen it came to voting, uouncil showed itself in true form rej ecting motions which would have
seated both Yoder and Vedral (the
rightful winners). The only thing
which came out of the meeting
was a resolution which was, in essen ce, a guideline by which Prosseda would be wise to follow. (That
the difference between a resolution
and a motion was the fact that a
resolution is not technically binding is not as important as the fact
that Council did resolve , by a vote
of 14 to 8, with two abstentions,
that these two offices be filled by
appointing the persons who received the greatest number of votes.)
To this Prosseda also voted against
for it would seem that if he were
to be bound by the will of the maj ority, he wouldn't be able to appoint his roommate and a loser!
And so neither office was legally
filled and won't be until next year
when College Council reconvenes.

Changes And Reforms

(Continued from page 1)

demonstrate at the opening basketball game with U.C.L.A., which was
also to include the dedication of a
$9-million gymnasium,n a studentfaculty committee was set up to establish a black studies program.
"Political power at Notre Dame,"
suggests Howard Dooley, a 1964
graduate now studying history at
the university, "does not grow
from the barrel of a gun, but from
the drum of a mimeograph machine."
At Wayne State University in Detroit, the administration has increased student power in the hopes
of chapeling discontent by giving
students a 50 percent membership
in a committee to choose the new
vice-president of student affairs
and a say in the selection of the
new Director of Public Safety. Two
years -ago, demonstrators at Wayne
State discovered files on student
dissidents, the existence of which
had been denied by the university.
"The administration has obviously looked around at other colleges
and doesn't want the same thing
to happen here," said Richard
Dresse r, a member of the student
government. "The result is that the
administration is now involving
students more in the decision-making processes of the university."
Ah the College of the Holy Cross,
a Catholic institution in Worcester,
Mass., not noted for the radicalism
of its students, the faculty voted
this week to give students a 12
percent voting representation in
faculty meetings and a committee
voice in the hiring dismissing, promoting and tenure of the faculty.
Last week also, Vanderbilt University in Nashville elected a 21year-old senior, Pa ce V anDeve n de r,
to a seat on the board of, trustees
effective next fall. Princeton University and Fisk University are also
developing plans to put recent
graduates on their boards of trusicua.

In hopes of heading off trouble ,
some schools have been canceling
classes and holding open meetings
—sometimes called "agenda days "
—to thresh out problems and come
up with solutions.
It was at such a two-day period
of "debate, discussion and meditation " at Amherst College early this
month that a letter to Mr. Nixon
from the president , faculty and
students of the prestigious school
was drafted, warning that student
unrest would not cease until the
"shoddi ne ss" of society was cur ed .
The Amherst meetings also adopted proposals permitting students
and nonacademic employees to "organize and implement an adequate
minimum wage," the provid ing of
funds for more minority-group students, the introduction of co-education and a "student and faculty bill
of rights."

Similarly, Massachusetts Institute of Technology suspended
classes for two days last week to
discuss, among other things, the
large amount of defense research
it conducts. But the M.I.T. "agenda days ' were the outgrowth of
mounting student and faculty protests against secret military research at two laboratories.
On other issues, the administration has appeared flexible and
there have been several changes in
policy. Taki ng the initiative away
f rom radicals, M.I.T. recently announced, for example, that it would
supply land and aid in constructing
1600 badly-needed low- and medium-income dwelling units in Cambr idge.
"Confrontation politics at M.I.T.
is not possible because the administration is too damn clever," complained one student radical publication. "We expect plodding ineptitude like there was at Columbia."
Meanwhile, at many other
schools where there have been confrontations of far lesser proportions than those at Columbia , Harvard and Cornell, changes have resulted.
At Tufts University, in Medford ,
Mass., for instance, a series of campus protests have brought on a
student-faculty-administration advisory board, increased admissions
and recruitment of Negro students,
an urban studies program, liberalized dormitory visiting hours, the
abolition of R.O.T.C., the initiation
of two Afro-American culture centers and the retention of a monthlong free reading and research period.
At the University of Minnesota ,
after Negro students ended a 24hour occupation of the administration building, the president , Malcolm Moos, announced that he had
agreed to find private money to
pay half the costs of a black student conference, support the development of an Afro-American studies program and expand the directorship fund for poor students to
include more Negro students and
community representatives.
And when American Indian students recently held a rally seeking
more programs, Mr. Moos promptly
set up a committee on the matter.
Mr. Moos, according to aides, like
many of his counterparts across
the nation , has been busily attempting in this season of discontent to stay one step ahead of every potentially explosive issue.

of ways in which such a program
might be implemented," said
R-MWC President William P. Qulllian , Jr., who convened the meeting..
.
'
According to the plan under discu ssion, a student in any of the
eight colleges might attend another
of the participating colleges for a
year or possibly for a semester, Dr.
Quillian said. Each college would
presumably indicate the number of
such exchange students it could accept in a given year or semester.
He noted two major advantages
of the program. "One is that it
would extend the range oi courses
available to the students in these
colleges. Thus, a student could take
advantage of the strengths of each
college in the group. Also, it would
afford a diverse educational experience for the exchange students
and give each of the colleges a
limited coeducational experience,"
Dr. Quillian pointed out.

It need scarcely be observed that
times change. What college presidents are required to do is documented every evening on the television newscasts. An announcement
of a vacancy in some college, even
of the type once known as "retreats of provincialism" where they
don't even have a strong student
government, might run something
like this:
"Danger—Live Wires—Wanted!"
"Wanted: intrepid , agile , fearless young man in class-A physical

ducking rocks, insults, and poisoned arrows (at Bloomsburg???).
