Faculty Supports Berkeley Students
University of California stu
dents have won faculty back
ing of their sit-in battle
against restrictions on politi
cal activity.
The faculty academic sen
ate Wednesday adopted 824
115, a resolution recommend
ing that the students be given
most of what they have been
demanding through four mas
sive sit-in demonstrations.
Jubilant students held a
rally Wednesday to celebrate
their "victory." Leader ot the
free speech movement, Mario
Savio, told his rally audience
of 2,500, "We have arrived at
a point where we have to be
responsible."
Savio said. "I am confident
that the students and faculty
will exercise their freedom
with the same responsibility
they've shown in winning
w.eir freedom."
The faculty group's propos
al includes: freedom to advo
cate on the campus any off
campus cause whether it is
legal or not and freedom from
campus discipline for off-campus
political activity.
The University's board of
regents will meet in Los An
geles Dec. 18 to consider the
1,200-member faculty group's
proposal.

of the University's board of
regents say California's state

The Berkeley campus tra
ditional methods have proved
inadequate to deal effectively
with the problem created
there by recent incidents, he
said.
Governor Edmund Brown
squelched students' plans to
ask dismissal of criminal
charges against 814 students
arrested in a round the clock
sit-in at Sproul Hall last week.
Brown said in Sacramento
Wednesday: "The FSM (Free
Speech Movement) chose a
chaotic course of demonstra
tions, sit-ins and threats
against the administration of
the University of California.
I have considered the ques
tion of amnesty carefully, and
my decision is final. I w i 1 1
not intervene."
Attorney J. Frank Coakley
declared, "I have no intention
of recommending dismissal.
We expect to go to trial un
less they plead guilty."
The Free Speech Move
ment's battle had led to four
massive demonstrations on
the campus. The biggest sit
ins, Dec. 2-3 ended with the
arrests of the 814 students and
nonstudent demonstra-

tors will be arraigned Dec.
14. There were 135 nonstu
dents among the demonstra
tors. On Dec. 7 nine full profes
sors of the University of Cal
ifornia political science de
partment wrote a statement
that was printed on Dec. 7 irf
the Daily Caluornian.
The statement commended
the number of students who
had continued to attend clas
ses throughout the sit-in dem
onstrations. The statement continued:
"We condemn the Illegal oc
cupation of University facili
ties by striking students and
we deplore the partial disrup
tion of University activities
which such conduct has
caused.
We advise any students who
still remain on strike to re
turn to their classes and re
sume their studies forthwith."
The FSM Tuesday tempor
arily suspended picketing of
University entrances and
classroom buildings until aft
er the academic senate ses
sion. The political science profes
sors wished to call students'
attention to the necessity "for
pursuing orderly and legal
processes in attempting, in
good conscience, to correct
any grievances they may
have."
The statement said that' in
a democracy "students must
recognize that the derogation
of due process and the dis
ruption of normal administra
tion in the name of freedom
or free SDeech is riema-
goguery, not democracy.
The professors also noted
that the Universitv of Cali
fornia has become a national
and international model for
higher education, scientific
research and intellectual serv
ices. "To hamper the work of
such a world-renowned and
world - committed institution
and to engage in behavier
which subjects it to obloquy,
is not soley an injury to a sin
gle University campus but a
tnreat to the attainment of
the larger ideals of freedom,
science, and service which,
we are convinced, continue
to motivate the minds of Uni
versity students here and all
over the world," they said.

for every 730 students, while
there is one representative for
every 400 students in the pro
fessional schools," he said.
"The present system has
also shown that it brings stu
dent apathy," Klein said. "In
the last Council election, one
third of the present Council
members ran unopposed. Al
so, from 1961 to the last elec
tion, student voting in the
Council elections has de
creased by 900 while student
enrollment has increased by
1,600," he said.
In discussion of the sys
tems by the entire Conven
tion, Gale Muller said that he
was sure that Council mem
bers of the past had not been
controlled by their living
unit. "This hasn't existed in
the past, and I see no reason
why it will in the future," he
said.
"If Council members do not
let their living unit influence
the way they vote under the
present system, why divide
the representation into dis
tricts which would encourage
this to exist?" asked Larry
Frolik, a non-delegate who
was recognized from the
floor. "By making a person
a straight representative of
ms unit, you are forcing him
to let his unit influence h i s
voting," he said.
"Inherent interest as a
group does not exist in a liv
ing unit unless it is on issues
which appeal differently to
each district," Frolik said.
"It has been pointed out by
both sides that these type of
issues don't come before
Council," he said.
"If the district system is
adopted, there would be no
logical alternative to using
the Hare system," Frolik
said. "It was necessary to
bring in someone who isn't
even a delegate to this Con
vention in order for this sys
tem to be explained to and
understood by just the 20 dele
gates. How could this com
plex system ever be under
stood by all the students?" he
asked.
"The voting procedure
doesn't have to be understood
by all the students so long as
knowledgeable people are on
the vote-counting groups," an
swered Klein. "Also, I am
sure that all issues differ ac
cording to l::ng districts," he
said. "And, we must prevent
Student Council from being
controlled by any one group.
The district system would in
sure this," he said.
After a motion was passed
which called for ending de
bate on the representation is
sue, the Convention moved to
table the vote until this
week's meeting.
