Day-
troubled students they see
suffer from an anxiety which
includes "spiritual rootless
ness, and that in the long run
this may be a somewhat en;
couraging sign."
"It may be that we have
reached a point where college
students are taking time to
ponder the meaning of life.
This could be an encouraging
sign of maturity," remarked
George Coelho, who received
his Ph.D. in social psychology
from Harvard. He is a re
searcher for the National In
stitute of Mental Health on
the adjustments of students
in college.
Orville Walters, MD, Ph.D.,
a graduate of the Menninger
School of Psychiatry and di
rector of University Health
Services at the University of
Illinois, proposed a rule of
thumb: "To have dependable
emotional stability, the stu
dent must have religious val
ues to stand by."
Sharp objection to his use
of the term "religious val
ues" came promptly from Jo
seph Handlon, Ph.D. psy
chologist with the Stanford
Medical Center; William
Brill, MD, chief psychiatrist
at the University; and Dr
Coelho, who recently returned
from college student behavi-
orial studies in India.
"The term 'religious val
ues' means too many differ
ent things to too many differ
ent people," said Dr. Han
don. "The danger of misin
terpretation is too great."
"It could be," said Dr.
Brill, "that the patient de
cides to depart from his re
ligious values. Some times it
is the conflict with the re
ligious values he has known
at home that has thrust tne
student into, anxiety. Some
times the way out for him
lies in finding a self-satisfying
substitute for those val
ues." "All rieht ." said Dr. Walt
ers, "call it 'spiritual' if you
Drefer. Anxietv arises when
the student discards one s4t
of values without finding an
other. This leaves a vacuum
that produces what might be
called 'spiritual anxiety."
This is found not only in col
lege students but it also pre
vails widely in our society."
"What has hanoened." said
Dr. Handlon, "is that people
including young people are
not accepting spiritual lead
ership without question tne
way people used to do."
"I aeree." said Dr. Walt
ers, "but the point for us is
that the orofessional practi
tioner must recoenize the re
lationship between psychiatry
and philosopny. Tne paueni
discharged without achieving
a set of spiritual values he
can accept and live by is not
cured. He remains a very
poor risk. I don't say it is the
Dsvchiatrists' iob to Hive him
a set' of spiritual values but
I do say tne psycmatrist
needs to recoenize the impor
tance of the spiritual dimen
sion of personality in helping
the patient gain emotional
stability." ,

The Student Council unanimously passed
a resolution to study the development of a uni
form code of punishment for cheating.
"I know of cases where individuals re
ceived almost diametrically opposite punish
ment for the same act of dishonesty (cheat
ing)," said Law College representative Bob
Gnmit, who introduced
"Students should not be
subject to the arbitrary ac
tion of the professor who
deals with an individual
case," he added.
Second vice-president Jim
Samples suggested an "equita
ble and flexible scale of pun
ishment for the code such as
that used by the Student Tri
bunal in student discipline."
Representative Jane Fau
quet attacked Grimit's reso
lution, saying that "students
should not have the right to
set a penalty for a specific
act . . . about which they do
not know the complete situa
tion." "The Student Council has
the responsibility in solving
student grievances to inves-

WHEREAS, the existence of aca

campus is of sreat concern to both
the students and the faculty; and
WHEREAS, In the past there have
been discrepancies in the penalties
for such academic dishonesty; and
WHEREAS, It is highly desirable
that the penalties should be uniform
throughout the University; and
WHEREAS, It believed that such
uniformity can be achieved without
infringing upon academic preroga
tive; therefore,
RESOLVED, That this Student
Council establish a committee to
study the feasibility of attaining such
uniformity in penalties for academic
dishonesty of all types; and further

so established shall closely coordinate
its Investigation with any committee
established by the administration or
the faculty and with toe Student Tri

shall submit to the Council a ore

session of this Council.

"The basic thing about jazz
is that the music is meant to
have a ball with music is to
