Elections

Neumeister maintained he
had campaigned for Shur dur
ing the lunch and dinner
hours of the election day but
had "thought nothing wrong
with it."
"I went in the lunch room
and told people I knew that it
would probably be a c 1 o s e
election," he said.
He added he did not know
any subtotals and had simply
assumed the election would
be close because of the talk
he had overheard.
Suhr's motion to call a new
election was accompanied by
a statement of agreement
signed by the officers-elect
and was passed unanimously.

A INDIAN WEDDING . . . was similated Sunday
night at the India Association Spring Cultural Festival.
Indian Mock Wedding
Is Featured At Festival
By Toni Victor
Junior Staff Reporter
Marriage, Indian style, has
not changed from over three
thousand years, said Dr. Ra
mesh Chandan, master of
ceremonies at the India As
sociation Spring Cultural Fes
tival Sunday night.
A mock wedding ceremony
was performed on stage at
the festival exactly as it is
performed in India today and
has been performed through
out the country's history.
The bride and groom, sur
rounded by happy relatives
and friends, tied themselves
together and circled the sac
red fire seven times as the
priest, or pandit, watched.
Chandan, a research assist
ant in dairy science at the
University, noted that he
bride usually cries as she re
ceives the priest's blessing
and formally says good bye
to her family.
The ceremony highlighted
an evening of Indian folk
songs and traditional dances,
performed by members of the
India Association in colorful
native garb.

Union as the song opens
every production in India, said
Chandan.

A series of dances per

the association depicted a

a fish, a woman picking
flowers for her hair, and an

wandering in the garden.
Intricate hand movements
characterized all the dancing.
Only women danced and the
only singing soloists were
men. Live music for some of
the songs was supplied by a
traditional drum instrument.
A humorous skit entitled
"The Drunkard's Mistake"
concerned the antics of an
American in India. The in
ebriated tourist stays with his
Indian friend and proceeds to
make a fool of himself as he
talks about "the mad taxi
driver who drove down the
wrong side of the street" and
dons a false beard and his
wife's clothes.

affair which strives to

customs and way of life of
India. The India Association

Evaluation Set
Had the Committee on Stu
dent Affairs been notified of
the change in procedure for
the Faculty-Evaluation Book,
"they would have been Im
pressed," according to G.
Robert Ross, vice chancellor
and dean of student affairs.
The Committee, however,
"felt pretty disappointed"
that the ASUN committee had
not notified thein of a change
in questionnaires and the let
ters sent to faculty members
requesting permission to dis
tribute the forms In the class
rooms during Dead Week.
Letters have been sent to
faculty members from the
ASUN faculty-course evalua
tion committee requesting
permission to distribute the
questionnaires and asking the
faculty to write a course
evaluation.

"This method allows for
faculty participation in the
project," Ross pointed out.
He explained that the book
had been granted approval
"in concept" earlier in the
year "providing three stipula
tions were met. As soon as
the conditions are met, the
book can progress as
planned."
The conditions were that
the question of liability be set
tled to the satisfaction of the
members of the Committee,
that the ASUN committee pre
sent a written statement of
purpose and ihat the same
firm of attorneys would be
consulted prior to publication
as advised the Committee on

For Dead Week
questionnaire postponed the
publication of the book, the
three conditions were never
met.
"Liability of the committee
can be solved by insurance,"
he said. "If the Committee
met as a whole that could be
covered shortly."
The other two conditions
could be met by having the
ASUN committee draft a
statement of purpose and
state that they agree to t h e
third provision, he said.
During Dead Week, the
Assn. Committee will distri
bute questionnaires in classes
where they have received the
instructors' permission.
Earlier this semester, ques
tionnaires for the book were
distributed through all the liv
ing units. Of 35.000 question
naires, onl:- 3,000 were re
turned and the committee de
cided that a responsible book
could not be published with
such a small representation.
In addition to asking per
mission to distribute the ques
tionnaires in the classrooms,
the letters request the in
structor to write "a brief
summary of the actual sub
ject matter and goals" of the
course, including the type and
number of hour exams and
quizzes, number of themes
and list of required texts.
Ladd Lonnquist, chairman
of the ASUN committee, not
ed that the book would be or
ganized to include the in
structor's evaluation of the
course and then the students
evaluation of the instructor.
He added that the only

ception of the engineering de
partment which conducts i t s
own evaluation session and
will not allow the ASUN book
committee in its classrooms,
the committee hopes to ob
tain material on every de
partment. The revised questionnaire
and distribution method
"should provide enough raw
material to do an adequate
job of evaluation," he con
tinued. For one thing, Lonnquist
noted, the new questionnaire
is easier to fill out than the
old one and contains "m ore
thorough questions."
The questions include quer
ies on the type of course,
course content, text, outside
readings, papers, examina
tions, instructors' classroom
and out-of-class techniques
and the student's attitude
toward the course and instruc
tor. Lonnquist explained that
the questionnaire is based on
the one used at Queens Col
lege In New York "which
has received national, ac
claim for its thoroughness."
He added that the only
problem he foresees is that of
the mass distribution and col
lection of questionnaires un
der the new system.
