Hatch was horn in a small town in
Massachusetts. His father was an office
manager for a cotton manufacturing firm.
Now, he'd like to have five acres in the
country so "I can do things like raise
becs, chickens, and have a garden and
shop." A green plant about three inches
high sits on a shelf back of Hatch in his
office. When asked about it he commented, "I like plants. I've had that for
10 years. It tells me that youth is fleeting because it keeps growing new leaves
I can't do that."
Characteristics include a pipe in which
he smokes a .variety of tobacco and says
"they all stink." A flower is in. his lapel
buttonlike because "I like flowers." A
family snapshot sits on another shelf
near his desk. He has four children."

"Having to work my way through
school I learned to depend on my own
resources. I gave up social activities that
may or may not have been useful and
valuable, but I don't regret it."
Regarding students Dr. Hatch remarked, "I think they're a great bunch
of kids, personally. Sometimes their academic achievements concern me." As to

In the Jitleis colum'n of the Kernel

indignantly desciibcil an incident
to have taken place at the i.dete-iiwhen two coi ned gills took the libcity
ol silting down at the same table with "in

to the hut t!i,it the writer and Iiiuicl
got up and lelt the building, since the
privilege ol avoiding the company of
those who olleud us is well recognizee!.
However, I feel compelled to take
issue with the general overtones of the
i

letter, which under the present circumstances of tension ,and transition must
be taken as being rather inllammatory.
I seriously doubt whether the writer's
remarks can be attributed to her or his
"emotional maturity and tolerance," as
is claimed. I rather suspect that they
prompted by "inborn stubbornness'Vand
lack of tact.
One cannot escape the 'impression that
this letter constitutes an insult to fellow
students who, having been admitted to
the University, are presumed to have
cjiialiliiatioris equal to those of white
students. The fact that they are colored
does not diminish their rights, once their
qualifications have been established.

wiiter so emphatically" demands, let" It
