Value Question
Whether or not Christmas vacation should be changed
for the Orange Bowl goers is a number one topic of dis
cussion on campus.
.STUDENT SENATE Wednesday passed a motion urg
ing, that there be no roll taken, and no tests given on Mon
day, January 3, so that those going to the Orange Bowl
will, not be punished by their absence.
Faculty Senate is opposed to such a stipulation. So are
we. The Senate position would probably have the same
effect as dismissing classes completely Our Senators might
just as well have passed a resolution urging that the va
cation be changed.
REALISTICALLY the entire problem involves only a
small minority of the students. A change in vacation would
aid only those who are driving to the bowl games and
driving back.
If vacation were not to adjourn until Jan. 4 or 5 would
that small minority who drove to the Orange Bowl be
back and present for their classes the following day? Un
doubtedly some would. Others would not be.
If the vacation were changed there would be those
who would object to remaining for an extra half week in
December and they would leave the 17 or 18.
The question is one of values values that the students,
faculty and administrators place in our University.
SOME WOULD SAY: "We're a football school and
it's time we admitted it. Let's change the vacation for the
convenience of those going to the bowl."
Others would note that the state and the University
could gain such good publicity if they were well repre
sented at the bowl game. "Those attending the bowl would
be supporting the University. Why should they be pun
ished?" WE WOULD RESPOND: Those attending the game
should not be pampered. They are members of a Univer
sity community which entails more than supporting their
football team.
And the charge that the University is simply a foot
ball school is insulting to the University to the majority
of the students, faculty and administrators and to the
state.
Another Change
Terry Carpenter has done it again.
One of the least pleasant aspects of Thanksgiving va
cation was Carpenter's printed accusation charging that
a University agricultural economist, Dr. Everett Peter
son, made "wild and unfounded" statements before the
Legislative Council Tax Committee last week. The accu
sation suggested that Peterson's statements were made
as a University pressure for more money.
Could this be the same Senator who last year urged
that University students march on the capitol to show
their dislike for the proposed tuition hike and their sup
port for more tax support for their University?
"As it turns out, Peterson did not appear before the
Legislative Council Tax Committee last week. Carpenter's
charge is unfounded.- ,
It appears the state's party-switching senator has out
maneuvered himself this time. Many of the 15,000 Univer
sity students are more than a little displeased with this
wbgIc's accusstion.
And 15,000 votes could be very costly for Senator Car
penter stiould he attempt a state wide political office in
the next few years.
Give Today
Today is give-your-blood-for-our-fighting-men day.
The. University Red Cross chapter is a co-sponsor of
the drive. And the University quota is 220 pints. Wednes
day evening approximately 200 students had registered
to give blood. '
We hope that those who did not sign up but would
like to donate a pint to the cause do so. The conference
rooms are a convenient location.
It would be embarrassing if a University of 15,000
students the majority apparently in agreement with
United States policy in Viet Nam could not fulfill a
220 pint quota.

survey, which measures
opinions of both students
and faculty members, finds
that the majority of faculty
members polled do not take
this "aggressive" attitude
and believe that the mili
tary actions should be con
fined to South Viet Nam
only.
While many officials have
stated that the recent pub
lic demonstrations against
this nation's involvement in
Viet Nam are represen
tative of an "infinitesimal"
number of college students,
the college students and
faculty members polled es
timate that they reflect the
attitude of approximately
5 percent of the students

dents and faculty, however,
make it clear that they
overwhelmingly believe
that Americans are obli
gated to serve in the na
tion's armed forces, even if
they are in disagreement
with their government's
policies.
Indicative of the support
on the campuses for the ad

percent of the faculty mem

States has an obligation to
provide active military as

ther, a large majority of
students 88 percent and
faculty 83 percent felt
that use of non-toxic tear
gas is justifiable as a
means of disabling the Viet

the lives of civilians.
The opinion survey is
based on responses from a
representative sample of
approximately 1000 students
from all classes, ages and
backgrounds from 200 col

Analysis of returns on a
regional basis indicated a
high degree of uniformity
of opinion. Noticeable ex

question of "Should we
avoid bombing military in
stallations in populous
areas of North Viet Nam,
such as Hanoi?" While 67
percent of all student re

these areas, 82 percent of

Too Trite
(ACP) Back in junior
high school, students write
editorials with heart about
keeping the school grounds
clean but college news
papers don't write long
winded diatribes and high
and mighty extollations
about the merits and de
merits of keeping the cam
pus clean, says the Graphic,
Pepperdine College, Los
Angeles.
It's just not the i;hing to
do. Not enough class hard
ly a sophisticated college
subject. Imagine anything
that "wa -back-whenish."
It's like belaboring t h e
obvious or stooping to im
mature editorial wrist-slapping
to the point of parton
izing. There are so many
more worthwhile, construct
ive collegiate subjects on
which intellectual college
newspapers can editorialize.
All the old jazz about
trash here and loose papers
there and this and that with
"trash" characteristics is
two-bit, trite, petty, nothing-better-to-write-about
stuff.
Everybody knows all the
propaganda about every
litter bit hurting. Scholars,
better than anyone else,
know that those little things
properly analyzed, psyched
out, combined, utilized or
scattered to the several
winds c a n produce self
evident, conclusive truths.
Editorialize about some
thing as insignificant and
uncollegiate as keeping the
campus clean? Funny. Ha.

The big thing these days is student freedom. Which
is, and probably always will be, a mirage.
That's why one must give the Students for a Demo
cratic Society a little credit. Although I find it a bit hard
to go along with all this conscientious objectivity (if, for
nothing else, out of consideration to the dead) I must com
pliment their understanding of what I like to call the Ad
ministration mind.
It's a cross between a pigeonhole and a loophole.
Now for those of you who are worried that I might
be censured for the preceding paragraph, remember that
there is no longer an Administration at this University. It
got pigeonholed. . t .
The only student freedom that will ever come out of
the Administration mind is a few teasers. These may
give a campus activity the right to publish (can t wait to
read the first edition of the Tassels Manifesto) or create
a new board to consider student participation in the 'de
cision making process."
It probably won't:
bring AWS up to 1960, Wesleyan or common sense.
cut the umbilical cord between Teachers College
and the great pigeonhole known as the Administration
building.
make the dormitories into even bad hotels so the
residents can be free of three veals a day and lots of
unwanted and unneeded mothering.
-make the leaders of Student Government, IFC and
all the other junior pigeonholes learn to stand up for what
they believe in.
That's why I agree with Carl Davidson that this place
is sick. We disagree only in that he sees some hope and
I don't.
Try this sometime. Think up a question to ask some
one over in the big pigeonhole. Make it a tender question,
hard to answer. Then count the steps in the grapevine
(the Administration mind calls them "channels of pro
test") that it requires before you are back where you
started without an answer.
Or try this. Ask an AWS jock how she justifies wom
en's sentences. First she'll get all red and tell you it's
none of your business and to keep out of it because all
the women in the world appreciate the protection hours
afford.
Then she'll tell you that nobody but dirty old men want
a liberalization of hours.
She's wrong on both. Women's hours, visiting hours
and especially AWS court are more than an inconvenience
they are. a slap in the face to all college women and
men, too.
AWS, meanwhile, dominated by those who have made
good and those who want to make good, remains couched
in cliches, neglecting those who depend upon them and
insulting those who are brave or unfortunate enough to
cross them.
It's a scale model of student freedom. "Participation
in the decision making process?" Humbug!
I think graduation is the only way. Unless people who
want student freedom learn what student freedom really is.
may stare at me like I'm
crazy, but I don't r e a 1 1 y
care."
Few coeds, however, have
enough courage to light up a
cigar in public. "I d o n't
smoke them in public," one
said, "because I'm afraid
society isn't ready for it."
When asked what brands
they prefer, most coeds
had little knowledge of parti
cular ones. They said, how
ever, that they preferred
plastic-tipped cigars. "I
usually ask the salesman
what he considers a g o o d
brand and go by that," one
coed said. "I have always
been satisfied."
