Faculty OK's Five Changes
Iii English R juircmenfo-"- An Arts and Sciences Collepe
faculty imrtinu' may be hold next
week to consider the lust two of
seven proposed changes in the
Fiilish requirements of the college. The first five proposals were
approved Monday.
Dean M. M. White said Wednesday that all seven of the recommendations must be passed as a
unit ix'fore they can go into effect.
Four of the proposals would require approval of the University
faculty, but the other three would
become effective as soon as they
were passed.
Only one of the recommendations passed Monday would effect
students now in school. It would
make marking and penalizing for
errors in English usage an ac- -

ccptrd and regular practice in all
departments of the follrge. It
would go into effect immediately
if the faculty approved the proposals as a whole.

The other four propn als would
involve transfer indents and Incoming freshmen, and would have
to be approved bv the University
faculty. One of these would require a erade of C in English la.
One of the recommendations still
to be discussed would require students of the college to rewrite
papers which do not meet acceptable standards of English."

The other requests Instructors to
report any student whose English
is "seriously defective", to the

Forewarned Is...

The use of traveling it to regulate imagination by reality.. and instead of thinking hbw things may
be, to see them as they are.

is that time of the year when the graduating seniors begin

to make decisions Concerning employment. This year's crop
faces a future which could be packed with troubles for them.
Although the nation is now in the grip of a recession, most
students aren't too aware of it except through what they read
in the newspapers and magazines. Few students have really
felt the pinch as yet and the majority of themjtre too young to
recall even the tail end of the last depression.
However, a few have become aware of it and as time passes
others will begin to feel the effects.
The seniors will be the first to taste the consequences and
in some ways many already have. Those fabulous starting
salaries competing companies offered students in the past few
years are becoming fewer in number. The number of companies is becoming smaller too as they don't need new personnel to expand with business at something of a standstill.
"
If employed by a company, the senior still faces an uncertain future. Should the "recession" deepen to a "depression"
then quite likely they will be without employment very shortly.
Being inexperienced youngsters with no seniority they will
be the first to be cut from the payroll. And people are laid off
in offices when production is down in the factories contrary to
the popular misconception that the professional is exempt from
unemployment.
So what can I do about it the, reader may ask.
Well, for the individual who is graduating it's just too darn
late and he can only hope that the recession slackens. If the
student still has a few years of college remaining, it might be
wise for him to consider this. The best insurance against unand educated that the
employment is to be so
company can't let you go because you are too much of an asset.
In other words, make yourself indispensable by learning your
!profession profoundly and at the same time be qualified to fill
any number of other positions.
i.Mcdiocre people are a dime a dozen and it is they who will
he the first to go. Almost anyone can be good enough to get
by the goal of most students today. A cbllege degree, without
education that is supposed to go with it, will do
the
Tittle good when the chips arc down. An old adage says, "to be

An Open Letter To The Parent
Dear Parent:

field hockey, archery, and other sports?
If not, there's something wrong with your local high school
and it's probably your fault. Perhaps oiir son or daughter is
inmissing out on the opportunity to become a
dividual due to your negligence. Hadn't ou better look into

will be casting

their ballots for their ravorite

can-

basket-weavin-

didate. Each college lias its voting
precinct where students can cast a
partisan ballot for a candidate.
It is my contention that the votthereby
ing booths are
making it inconvenient, if not hard
for the student to vote. The voting
booth at the Student Union should
be downstairs between the grill and
cafeteria. If the booth is so placed,
more students will have the privilege of casting their votes.
Also, I further propose that voting booths be set up in the women's cafeteria so that they too may
have the opportunity. With the increased student population there
are now far too few voting booths
scattered throughout the rjany
colleges on campus.
Why hasn't the Student Government Association been using
voting machines on campus? There
may be many reasons for not using
them, but I'm also quite sure that
if an SGA representative asked the
Fayette County Government for
several of the machines it would be
more than glad to loan them for
student elections.
I appeal to SGA, if it isn't too
late to set up additional voting
booths and initiate the use of voting machines on campus, please do
so, because many students are now
being disfranchised on the campus
who shouldn't be.

(ED. NOTE: The idea of initiating the use of voting machines is
worth consideration. Most students
don't know how to use one and in
all civil elections they are used.
This would be a good chance for
some of the campus political organizations to sponsor a worth-whil- e
and pratical project teaching the
use of the voting machine.)

the situation?

The high schools gf Kentucky and other states, are, for the
institutions. There are
most part, modern and
many schools which have been constructed during the last
well-staffe- d

decade, and most of them can boast of fine gymnasiums, auditoriums, band rooms, cafeterias and even television and i
sets. However, there may be a slight shortage of such incidental items as classrooms, and math, science and English
teachers.
But who needs classrooms, math, and science in order to
become a
individual? And who needs English?
It's only the language of our country! "Wouldn't it be much
more desirable to have the ability to entertain yourself by
weaving baskets? This should prove especially useful to while
aawy the time when jobs are scarce.
You had better act now, parent! If your child is becoming
too
you had
rather than
better put some pressure on your local educational system.

(ED. NOTE: Or even worse, a maladjusted, continually
neurotic, journalist who writes editorials that get pe6nle mad.
Seriously, this editorial from the Kentucky Engineer was
because the Kcrrnel felt there would be sufficient interest in it to warrant campus-wid- e
readership. So, for you
future fathers and mot hps the above is food for thought. The
educational system w ill supply only what you demand of it.)

UNIVERSITY SOAPBOX

Dr. Jokl Advocates Advanced Studies In Athletics
ED. NOTE: This article is composed of statements condensed from an article by Dr. Ernst Jokl, director of the

Kentucky Rehabiliation Center on campus. The article
appearing in the April Issue of "Amateur Athlete" discusses physical fitness and education especially on a

graduate level.)

By DR. ERNST JOKL

If physical education and athletics are to make

de-

cisive progress, the same principles will have to be applied
as those used to promote medicine. Today, we still deal
with physical education and athletics in the same manner
In which chemistry was dealt with prior to the advent of
Lavoisier; on an exclusively empirical basis.
American manpower is second to none. Rates of growth
of our boys and girls are faster than they were 40. 30, 20,
or even 10 years ago. We have the most favorable standards of nutrition, health and longevity in the world. Ours
is the richest nation that has ever existed. It is primarily
for these reasons that we continue year alter year to produce athletes who win international contests and Olympic
titles, and who break world records.
but the physical fitness of our youth as a whole Is on
'the decline as has recently been acknowledged by the
President on the occasion of the appointment of a special
fitness council to which, however, no executive power has
granted.
For several decades, no categorical progress has been
made In physical education In the United States, a fact
which is overlooked by many who assume that the pretentious barrage of talk on fitness that Is now going on
all over the country reflects action.
' The noteworthy advances
our top
in the training-o- t

athletes during the past decade or so, we owe exclusively
to the enthusiasm and energy ol our coaches who have so
far received little help from research. The incomparable
resources of modern science have
