"In issuing rules for the regulation of the affairs of the University and the government of

two freshmen classes had failed at midterm.
"It is a question of the quality of teaching in the classroom about which the Anthropology Department is concerned.
"No hard and fast decisions on any part
of the action have been made," he said.
Dobbins explained he does not consider
the matter a question of academic freedom
in regard to evaluating and reviewing Eddington' s work in class.
"The classroom is to be an area for the
freedom of discussion for faculty and students. Everything is still so," Dobbins said.
The anthropology chairman sees the issue
as a matter of responsibility to all those
concerned with the operation of a state
university, including students, faculty, administrators of the University and of the state,
and finally to the taxpayers who support
the institution' as regards the quality of
education offered.

"The prime mission (of the University)
is to educate the students and in that context any member of the University faculty
who may be charged witli administrative
responsibility . . . must be concerned with
the quality of classroom education.
"Does this catchword academic freedom'
mean freedom from responsibility to the

taxpayers, the parents, the students, and
the University administrators? Does it mean
license, freedom to ignore this responsibility
to all these people?" he said.

"If your Univ ersity instructor is educating
his students within a pertinent discipline,
certainly academic freedom is meaningful
in terms of research activity within his discipline; it is meaningful in terms of the
information he offers his students within
his discipline.
"The Anthropology Department is concerned with the whole matter and would
not define it as a matter of academic freedom," he said.
Dobbins said all decision-makinregarding the case is being done entirely within
the department and that there had been
no outside administrative intervention into
g

it.

"This department is tremendously
as a result of student concern which
has been voiced," Dobbins explained.
Eddington said he has no public statement about the issue yet but that he would
have one in the near future.
Eddington came to UK from the Berkeley
campus of the University of California on a
r
contract. Dobbins said his contract
is and would remain fully intact unless
Eddington chose to alter it.

Study
Of Chinese Admission
By DREW

MIDDLETON

(c) New York Times News Service

UNITED NATIONS The
United States backed Monday
an Italian draft resolution proposing that a United Nations
committee explore the question
of Chinese representation and
recommend "an equitable and
practical solution."
Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg, announcing the Johnson
Administration's support, stipulated two conditions, which he
called "considerations":
The U.S. will continue to
refuse to repudiate its commitments to Nationalist China;
The U.S. will reject any
solution of the question that involves the Nationalists' expus-siofrom the U.N.
The American move was taken
on instructions from President
Johnson, relayed Monday morning through Secretary of State
Dean Rusk. Many diplomats here

Italy indicated at a news conference that recommendation of
a
formula, seating
both mainland China and Taiwan, would be left to the committee to decide.
The delegation of Nationalist China condemned the Italian proposal in a strongly worded
statement. The draft resolution
was called "an immediate and
direct challenge" to the Nationalists' "rightful position" as the
government of the Republic of
China in the U.N.
The Canadians have sounded
opinion on this proposal in a
number of interested capitals
with negative results, according
two-Chi-

Prospects for adoption of the
Italian resolution by the general
assembly are not good, in the
opinion of many delegates.
The U.S., they said, had
jumped on the bandwagon too
soon and by backing the draft
resolutions so early in thedebate
gave it the appearance on an
American tactical maneuver.

Britain has already disclosed
that it will not support the proposal. France adheres to a policy
of admitting Peking and ousting
Nationalist China. The Communist bloc, the Scandinavian countries, a majority of the African
states, many Asians and some
Western European delegations
are also expected by these sources
to vote against the draft resolution. Fifty votes in favor was the
highest estimate heard in the
corridors and this is not enough
for adoption by the assembly,
with 21 members.

The NCAA said this was no

Lafayette High School had

sity community, or University
property is within the University's domain," he said.
"We are not in the business
of punishing students for violations of local, state or federal
laws," he added.
However, it is possible that
a violation of a local, state, or
federal law might overlap and
also be a violation of a University rule, the law professor
noted.
He said the report lays down
two academic offenses and 10
disciplinary offenses. "These are
the only offenses for which disciplinary' action may be imposed," Flickinger said.
Currently, there are only two
offenses listed in the "Rules of
the University Faculty" for
which disciplinary action may
be imposed hazing and financial delinquency. However, inherent in the broad University
policy statement on conduct are
grounds for punishment for a
limitless number of other actions.
Flickinger said the report was
basically concerned with the student and his relationship to the
University as a whole as a student and as a member of student
organizations. The report "reremoves the University-studen- t
lationship in the areas of housing,
employment, and retailing,"
Flickinger said.
"The University would be
no different .and would have the
same rights as any other landlord, employer or retailer . . .
and the student would have the
same rights as any tenant, employe, or purchaser," Flickinger noted. "If there is a violation of legal rules, the Univer

sity should use legal actions of
the state."
Flickinger said some of the
format of the report was drawn
from a preliminary statement of
the American Association of University Professor's committee on
the "Academic Freedom of Students."
Relating to the area of
freedom of students, the
statement says, "Students who
violate the law may incur penalties prescribed by civic authorities, but institutional authority
should never be used merely to
duplicate the function of general laws.
"Only where the institution's interests as an academic
community are distinct from
those of the general community
should the special authority of
the institution be asserted.

"Disciplinary

proceeding

should be instituted only for
violation of standards of conduct defined in advance and
published through such means
as a student handbook or a generally available body of university regulations."
Flickinger said the University committee "tried to comply with the AAUP committee's
recommendations, in so far as
they related to disciplinary matters."
The jurisdiction of various
governing boards and administrative officials concerned with
discipline is also defined by the
report. "The report tells who
has power and what they can
do with it," Flickinger said.
Currently, jurisdictional limits of the various disciplinary

fenses.

Under the present setup, decisions of the student disciplinary
boards stand only as recommendations for action to the deans
or administrators, who may accept or overrule the recommendations.
Asked if he thought the committee's report would be adopted
by the Senate and the Board
of Trustees, Flickinger said, "As
chairman of the committee, I feel
there will be no objections to
the statement of policy. However, as the policy statements
are translated into concrete
terms, there may well be objections to the specifics of the
terms."

Quality Vs. Quantity
The United States today has
the highest proportion of children going to some kind of school
of any nation on earth. And with
the burgeoning population, there
is no let up in view. This steadily
increasing population coupled with
the rapid technical change of our
modern world is putting unprecedented stress on American universities and creating a unique
challenge in higher education.
This dichotomy means the
United States faces two seemingly
conflicting objectives in education.
On one hand, there is the desire
to offer some kind of college experience to all who desire it. At
the same time, however, there is
the urgent need to identify and
fully develop the talented individualsthe necessity of recognizing
the special talent and gifts of future
leaders and creative people.
As the United States moves
toward the ideal of higher education for everyone, the brunt of
the responsibility increasingly lies
with the state universities. UK,
for example, unfortunately must
students who
accept all
for admission. This implies
apply
that all Kentucky high school graduates are able to attend the University regardless of individual
in-sta- te

ability.
This

in itself represents the
unique challenge: that of reconciling quality with the universality
of education.
Heretofore, the private universities have set the standards of
higher education in this country.
But this is no longer so. Especially
with the increase in federal financial support available, many
state universities now have the
opportunity for quality also. UK
is now making tremendous strides
in improving its graduate program,
attracting an excellent faculty, upgrading research facilities, expanding classroom, dormitory, and office

facilities, and invigorating its undergraduate program.
But past experience has shown
that nearly 50 percent of the freshman class each year will fail.
Whether the fault lies with the
advising system, the student's background, or the student himself has
yet to be determined. The import
of these statistics, however, is that
if the University must assume the
responsibility of educating all Kentucky students who apply, it must
not relinquish quality in the process.
Advisers must necessarily be

competent and readily available.
Courses must necessarily be tailored to a student's individual abilities and ambitions. More smal
