An instruction evaluation sheet suggested by the council
committee on student activities was approved by the Stu
dent Council Wednesday.
Connie Hurst, chairman of the committee explained that
after being approved by the council the sheet would go to
me iacuuy suD-commiuee oni
student affairs.
In the discussion on the
suggested form, Dave Rhodes
pointed out that the sheets
are intended for use by the
individual instructors, not by
the departments.
He also emphasized that
It was the total teaching ef
fectiveness that would be
rated, not the instructors per
sonally. The sheet includes eighteen
points which the student rates
1 to 5, inferior, poor, aver
age, good, and superior.
The points include such
criteria as knowledge of sub-j
ject, organization of course
material, value of text as
signed, value of lectures giv
en, ability to lecture effec
tively, and fairness in testing
and grading.
There is space for addition
al suggestions and criticisms
at the bottom of the sheet.
The only objection to t h e
sheet as submitted voiced by
any council member con
cerned two rating items. Per
sonal appearance and bearing
and friendliness and pleasant
ness in manner.
Some council members said
that since these were person
al characteristics of the in
structor they did not have a
bearing on the teaching ef
fectiveness.
However, it was decided to
retain these items on the sheet
as submitted to the faculty
sub-committee.

Metheny Speaks On Leadership;
PE Convocation Attended By 750
IJSC Professor Says 'Everyone Is Leader;
Choice Of Responsibility Requires Courage9
An approximated 750
dents, faculty members and
Lincolnites attended the
Women's Physical Education
and Sociology department,
convocation on leadership.
Dr. Eleanor Metheny, pro
fessor of physical education
at the University of Southern
California, spoke on "T h e
Courage to Lead", Wednes
day in the Union ballroom.
The leadership we need
most today is not big, glamor
ous, acclaimed, 'name lead
ership, but the steady, con
tinuous, often unrecognized
leadership which is exhibitied
as we work one by one in
our own communities, ex
plained Dr. Metheny.
The leader must have the
courage to accept the fact
that he takes the risk of be
ing wrong," said Dr. Me
theny. "Every leader will be
wrong sometime.
Two. Types '
Dr. Metheny cited two types
of leaders the real and the
'big operator.'
The leader believes in some
thing, while the operator
wants something.
Five characteristics were
Campus
Interest
Religious interest of Uni
versity students is high, cam
pus pastors and religious
workers say.
But these religious leaders
wonder if the interest is a se
rious inquiry into the basis
of the faiths, or merely an
indifferent search on the part
of the individual student to
place himself into the "reli
gious intellectual" class.
Campus Survey
An Episcopalian chaplain at
Penn State recently expressed
his views on the religious in
terest subject in the March
29 issue of the Saturday Eve
ning Post. The c h a p 1 ai n,
Jones B. Shannon, claimed a
resurgence of religion among
college students.
Results of a campus survey
on tiie subject, largely agree
ing with Shannon's state
ments, are presented below.
Rev. Gustave Ferre, dean
of the Cotner School of Re
ligion, commented:
"We have the largest en
rollment (in the Cotner
School of Religion) in
eleven years. There seems
to be a real seriousness of
interest in the ones who
take the courses. They at

Rev. Ferre cited the in

strating their seriousness.

The Right Rev. Msgr.
George Schuster, Catholic stu

there is a great interest and

they want it."

College Life
Dr. Metheny related these
characteristics to college life,
saying that they applied to
activities, "A person should
do well in a few, rather than
just belong to a great num
ber." "The real leaders who will
determine what the world will
be like are right here at the
University. Everyone is a po

whether you want to accept
the responsibility is up to
you," she concluded.

in religion.
"We are interested in
theories and concepts and
trends but many fail to see
how these questions apply to
their own lives," she said.
Rev. Rex Knowles, Univer
sity pastor for Presbyterian
and Congregational students,
commented:
"My own feeling is that
I've never felt a lack of
interest at the University,"
adding, "but I don't think
we are the Kingdom of

Citing the religious observ

campus, the attendance at
Church services in the com

the campus to the AUF drive
as evidence of religious in

students:
"I think their intentions are
