arbitrary infringement on stu
dent rights, Spivey said t h e
group was simply using the
open door ruling as a focal
point in a larger issue.
"Right now we have an ed
ucational system more ideal
ly suited for a monarchy or
totalitarianism form of gov
ernment rather than a democ
racy," he said.
Within a democracy, he
said, an educational system
should provide a student gov
ernment, "of students and by
students, rather than a high
er group over lower constitu
ents." "We're being run by rules
we re not making," he added
The open door ruling, which
was passed with five other
stipulations during a Decem

kind in operation today.
Pokorny was asked to speak
on free universities and ex
perimental colleges during his
three-day visit at the S t a t e
University of New York at
Stony Brook. He said it was
Four professors
unfortunate the free universi
ty was rejected at Stony
Brook. He explained that the
almost two to one rejection
by the student body resulted
from a group of students want
ing to give the University a
poor public image.
The student group at
tempted to hire four profes
sors, who had not been re
hired for the upcoming fall
term, at a cost of $60,000,
which would have come from
student fees, he said.
Students were astute and
recognized the attempting to
use the free university con
cept for political rather than
educational goals, Pokorny
said.
He added it was unfortunate
that Stony Brook organized
the free university in a nega'
tive rather than a positive
sense. NFU has been success
ful with more than 80 courses
conducted during NFU's first
two years of existence.
Pokorny speaks
Pokorny explained that he
was asked to speak to the
6,000 member student body
by former University history
professor Dr. David Trask,
who left NU in the spring of
1966 to accept a full history
professorship at Stony Brook.
He said the New York Uni-

states that all doors except
those residents absent from

during the open house and
those residents leaving t h e
floor must register their ab
sence with the responsible of
ficer. However, no action is ex
pected to be taken by the Re
gents when they informally
discuss alternatives to the
open housing policy with t h e
subcommittee Friday.
Although disappointed with
turnout of only five students
Thursday, he s a i d the meet
ing was simply an organiza
tional meetine which ahs de
ferred the need for support
until Friday.
versity, which lacks a frater
nity system, is composed of
13 residential colleges based
on living units.
Although the residential col
lege is presently used to pro
vide extra educational pro
grams, it will eventually be
expanded into an operation
which will provide much of

He said all undergraduates,
with the lone exception of
commuters are involved in the
program.
The residential college ex
periment is similar to a plan
which the Centennial College
Committee has been discuss

added.
Although the committee has
not released its final draft of
the proposed system, the
group is aiming at a Septem

Posters and other publicity
letters were to have been dis
tributed campus wide Thurs
day night to inform as many
residents as possible of t h e
impending demonstration! he
said.
While unable to specify the
demonstration's probable in
fluence on the Regents, he
said if the Regents were un
aware of student interest on
the oDen houses, they might
get a better idea of its extent
by the demonstration.
He estimated that a turnout
of approximately 500 students
would render the demonstra
tion's being termed success
ful.
At last week's IDA Council
meetine. the IDA represents
tives rejected a motion pre'
sented bv bod lierKen ot &ei'

have organized a mass dem
onstration Thursday.
"We believe the IDA should
have taken stronger action
before this and many students
will tend to ignore tneir ac
Hons unless tney come up
with something concrete
soon, he said.
He said the demonstration
has remained a possibility
since the Regents denied the
coed-visiting proposal last
April and new rules govern
ing open houses were intro
duced during the current aca-
democi year.
"The Regents and adminis
tration officials are now gov
erning the students and this
is a condition which sould not
exist," he said.
The planned demonstration
met with disapproval from
former . IDA President Brian
Ridenour who has spent more
than one year on the open
housing question.
"Recent developments with
the Regents have been en
couraging and it's foolish that
a group would take the chance
of destroying those gains by
taking such rash action," he
said.
He added that the demon
stration would not harm IDA,
but would jeopardize the dor
mitory student's chances of
obtaining desired goais.

The major objective of Pan

said Thursday.

so that the organization is di
rected more toward the en

Miss Kuester felt that as
Panhellenic president,
she would encourage the con
tinuation of many of Panhel
lenic's programs this year.
More needed
Much more needs to be
done in each of these pro
grams, she continued, so that
"they can be brought to a
realization."

need for stronger leadership
in Panhellenic. "I hope the ex
ecutive staff will act as an
agency of direction," she said,
and that the executives will
bring hte Panhellenic prob
lems to the attention of the
council.
Panhellenic's report on de
ferred rush was very signifi
cant this year because "it
gave us a general awareness
that the Greek system has to
take a critical look at all
aspects of the system, not just
rush, the president said.
Major programs
Leadership, integra
tion, rush system and pledge
programs were some of the
major problems that Miss
Kuester felt should be eval
uated. The Greek system needs to
question many areas of the
system, she said.
However, the president ac
knowledged that many of the
problems of the Greek system
would not be solved in one
year.
The stand that Panhellenic
and the Inter-Fraternity Coun
cil took on deferred rush was
also important in that "it pro
moted better cooperation and
interaction with IFC, Miss
Kuester contended.
"The combined stand of
Panhellenic and IFC on de
ferred rush was the first time
that the two groups have
really worked together," she
said.

areas, she said. Pledge edu
cation and the expansion of
the Greek system in the fu
ture were two of her sugges
tions for a combined effort.
Panhellenic chairmen coun
cils have been "greatly built
up this year," she said. Chair
men councils are composed of
the mutual offices of each of
the 8 sororities examples
are the scholarship council or
the rush chairmen council.
"The purpose of these coun
cils is to try to pin point the
problems of the Greek sys
tern," she said.
Miss Kuester noted the ac
complishments of the scholar
ship council which raised the
required grade average for so
rority activation from a 2.0
to 2.2 this year. "The purpose
of this change was to create
more scholarship initiative of
the entire sorority system,"
she explained.
Rush ruL'S
Panhellenic has also begun
a revision of rush rules and
policy, the president reported.
"This is being done by the
rush chairmen council."
Panhellenic no longer re
quires an alumna recommen
dation for a girl to go through
rush week, although many in
dividual sororities must ad
here to this requlrenent be
cause of a national policy, she
said.
Another suggested change
for rush week is to have stu
dent advisors on the Panhel
lenic rush staff. One girl from
each house would be selected
by interview, she said.
Miss Kuester explained
that these advisors would

dormitories during rush week
and would be available for
advising rushees and for an
swering their questions.
"Naturally these advisors
would be forbidden to present
the identity of their own so
rority to any of the rushees,"
the president explained.
This is one of the ways that
the organization is trying to
work more "panhellenically,"
the president said.
She said that more empha
sis was being placed on the
idea that 'what is good for the
Greek system is inherently
good for one's house.'
