Amherst, Mass. (I.P.) Swing

men and 102 women admitted in June
of 1964.

airJ since adopted with modifications

leaves campus for study elsewhere or
work during fall semester, then
returns to complete its freshman year
in the spring semester.
Swing Shifters return to fill spaces
created by between-semester gradua
tions, dropouts and other causes. The
program, which now admits an
average of 300 freshmen a year, helps
the University utilize facilities to the
fullest extent on a year-round basis.
The survey in general indicates that
Swing Shift performance levels are as
high and in some cases higher than
those of regularly-admitted freshmen.
"There was less academic attrition at
the end of their freshman year than
the 'regular' class and they performed
at an equal academic level," Doolan
reports. "Their academic major
selections and their performance fell
within the general range of the class
of 1908."
The cumulative academic average
for the Swing Shift group during the
first semester was 2.30 on a three
point scale, definitely better than the
regular class first-semester average
of 1.94. The balance changed during
the second semester, the Swing Shift
grade average dropping to 2.03 and
the regular average climbing to
2.09.
The summer session, with fewer
students and fewer activities going on,
probably helps to boost the Swing
Shift first-semester average, ac
cording to Doolan. The second
semester drop may have been caused
by the adjustment of the re-entry, he
added.
The academic dismissal rate for
Swing Shift was 7 per cent at the end
of the first year, far below the total
dismissal rate of 13 per cent for the
whole class.
"The results of this study justify the
original decision to begin the program
and to continue it to the present
time," Doolan concludes. "Since 1964,
the program has provided op
portunities for study at the University
for almost 1500 young men and women
who would have been denied ad
mission into the regular academic
year.
"The program should be continued,
and with the increasing number of
qualified applicants each year, should
be expanded," he said.

Educators debate
Afro-American study
(ACP) The role of Afro-American
studies in undergraduate education
was debated vigorously by a militant
from San Francisco State College and
the moderate head of the United
Negro College Fund at the annual
meeting of the Association of
American Colleges in Pittsburgh,
Pa.
"A black education which is not
revolutionary In the current day is
both irrelevant and useless," Nathan
Hare, chairman of the department of
black studies at San Franclso State,
said.
"To remain Impartial in the educa
tional arena is to allow the current
partiality to whiteness to tester. Black
education must be based on both
ideological and pedgagocial
blackness," Hare said.

meeting of the newly formed Student Independent Party.
ASUN ticket formed;
SIP eyes elections
The Student Independent Party
(SIP) announced Wednesday the
formation of a campus political party
for this year's ASUN election. -
Ray Vavak Jr., a senior in political
science, announced his candidacy for
president of ASUN. His executive
ticket includes Randall Prier as can
didate for first-vice-president and Tim
Klncaid for second vice-president.
Vavak said he has ten senatorial
candidates who are running with SIP.
He added that more candidates are
expected to join his party.
Commenting on the educational
reforms SIP proposes, Vavak said
that he would like to see changes
in at least four main directions:
Frequent and open public
meetings by Board of Regents. He
advocated one student be elected to
the Board of Regents with full voting
powers.
Commenting on educational
reforms Vavak emphasized the
necessity of conducting classes with
a maximum set enrollment o f
30students.
"These clarses," he said, "should
conduct one seminar a week, at
least."
Vavak then said that his party
would work to abolish the present
Greek system. "We want to initiate
reforms in this direction," Vavak
said.
Commenting on the present
prevailing parking problems, Vavak
added that he would like to see the
elimination of parking meters. Park
