intellectual freedom in higher
education."
He praised the work of AAUP
in protecting the Idea that a
"university is a community of
scholars, free to inquire, to teach,
to experiment, to dissent."
Dr. Oswald said he shared with
AAUP "a deep commitment to
the . . . two key principles set
forth nearly 25 years ago: the
common good depends upon the
free search for truth and its free
expression, and freedom and economic security, hence tenure, are
indispensable to the success on
an institution In fulfilling its obligations to its students and to
society."
Dr. Oswald pointed to the initiation of a standardized
appointment and promotion procedure at the University as an
example of the implementation of
AAUP principles. "Through the
years I have been pleased to note
that the association has recognized that tenure, unfortunately,
can be used to prepetuate medi

ocrity as well as scholarship and
creative teaching," Dr. Oswald
said.
This underlying awareness wait
what caused the promotion and
appointment system the president
said.
The University is also meeting
its "obligation to notify a faculty member early in his association with the University If he
cannot meet our standards," Dr.
Oswald said.
Oswald told the
President
group that he endorsed the statements of AAUP emphasizing the
rights of faculty members in their
roles as citizens. "This must also
include students," he said.
"You and I defend this right
to function as citizens, independent of our institutions, regardless of the public and private
opinions we express or the cause
we espouse. At the same time,"
Dr. Oswald said, "we ask our students to accept the same kind
of restraint which we impose
upon ourselves as faculty members and administrators."

Study Shows

Student Rights
Should Be Considered
American colleges and universities,
traditional champions and defenders
cif rights and causes, are not practicing what they preach when it
conies to protecting the individual
lights of students.
More olten than not, students are
being deprived of basic Constitutional
piivileges as offenders on campus.
These are findings in a study,
"Disciplining Students in College,"
made by Dr. Isabclle Terrill as her
doctoral project in the Department
of Guidance and Student Personnel
Administration at Teachers College,
Columbia University. Dr. Terrill's major doctoral adviser and sponsor was
Prof. Esther M. Lloyd-Jones- ,
department head.

The study, conducted by personal
interviews at 31 colleges and univer-titie- s,
examined procedures in the
handling of 167 collegiate offenders.
Dr. Terrill is now director of housing
at Illinois State Normal University.
The investigation found that student rights are frequently ignored by
personnel officers in disciplinary cases.
,'J he welfare of the institution
and of
other students is the main concern.
'J he of fender's rights were rarely considered.
Can rent disc iplinary practic es on
campus, Dr. Ten ill reports, contradic t
adthe purpose of a student-personne- l
ministrator, who should be a "model
leader genuinely concerned with delude i atic l ights."
Eveiy college student, Dr. Terrill
dec hues, must have the light to know
the explicit chaiges against him; must
line the light to counsel, the light
to call witnesses, the light to question accusei s, and the light to appeal.
So far. Dr. Ten ill points out,
cleans have not shown that college

undents, like any other individuals in

our society, deserve these privileges.
"The student offender should be
able to expect that the college
-personnel
officer will honor his
civil liberties. This is the challenge
to the dean."
A primary concern of

student-personne-

l

officers should be the intellectual development of students, Dr. Terrill maintains. In disciplining students, he should remember that part
of this development is "the ability to
profit from error."
In emphasizing the intellectual development of the student, Dr. Terrill
explains that it is in challenging the
student in this area that adolescent
behavior is "modified, if not abandoned," and that "the mature,
adult" emerges.
Dr. Terrill's investigations show,
however, that the disciplinary techniques repeatedly used by student-personnadministrators "only served
to extend and underscore the adolescent role of the offender."
Dr. Terrill places much of the
for student development
on the college dean. "He has the
jxiwer to coerce, the opportunity to
stimulate," she suggests, "lie can
stifle student surges of independence
or place the responsibility for conduct
on the student himself."
"Coercion, repression of independence, authoritarianism certain'y are
not acceptable in the university," Dr.
Ten ill concludes.
In her study, Dr. Ten ill identified
25 categoiies of student misbehavior.
Ollensive acts were most frequently

committed in the areas of sex behavior, use of alcohol, and thelt. lew
cases, she notes, were pending beyond
one week. More than half were decided within 48 hours.

Kernel Editorials
'The Right To Criticize'
To The Editor:
The Kernel's March

3 editorial on
criticism retreats from what it calls
itself a principle "characteristic of the
American way" into the anonymity
of
defeatism and in doing so
points up just how valuable some
honest
might be.

Under the guise of what it calls

"The Right to Criticize," your

edi-

torial makes it clear that, all the
same, "we" (that ponderous editorial
dodge) are not to be considered guilty
of anything so heinous as taking a
moral stand. Who, "us"? Criticize anything? () goodness no! That way, as
your editorial carefully demonstrates,
no one can criticize us.
But are "we" so very perfect? Or
are "we" simply so afraid of criticism that "we" find it necessary to

make
bargains? And while the
questions are piling up, it might be
interesting to consider whether the
above attitude has anything to do
with the lack of Letters to the Editor
printed in the Kernel.
What, if anything, is more deserving of criticism than the failure
to take a stand precisely what the
Kernel has been so consistently guil- -

Centennial
Comments
The Wholeness Of Persons
The Centennial Year might be a
time to give concern for what is happening to individuals within the university, to the kinds of pressures that
destroy or build a sense of wholeness
in persons. While the university works
on its problem of compartmentaliza-tio- n
which tends to divide person's
values and standards as well as their
time, let the church help persons so
to know God's grace and acceptance
that they can accept themselves and
be the same self in various situations.
At the same time fraternities and religious groups alike can question the
shallow "groupiness" and "togetherness" based upon conformity which
olten passes for true community.
Let's use the Cenieiini.il Year to
speak a word of judgment upon any
part of campus life (classroom, fraternity, or campus religious oiganiza-Won- )
which encourages supei lie iality
and lalse role playing, and to cultivate all occasions where persons can
find coherence and meaning in their
college expei ienc e.

ty of? To evade one's own moral
queasiness by accusing those brave
enough to commit themselves of acting only "for lack of something better to do" is both slanderous and cowardly.

Objectives

To The Editor:
It is high time someone recognized the tripe that is put into college

newspapers. The article that appeared
in The Cardinal was certainly degrading to that university. We cannot
deny that it was a clever article which
certainly must have amused the readers, but such subject matter is unheard of! Who would have the audacity to approach young, clean-cut- ,
upstanding American students with
the idea of free beer, even if it were a
hoax. Subject matter such as this
should be kept in the drawing-room- !
Perhaps if some of the other college papers could read our newspaper,
they would get an idea of what the
right and most important material
going into a college newspaper consists of.
The first objective of our paper is
to be sure to include the most important articles from the local newspapers. This way our paper has much
more original articles because they
are written by such
journalists.
The second objective which is really a must is to include a "Campus
Parable" devoted to those students
who can't woik it in their schedule to
get to church every day. This is even
better than having mommy and daddy"
around to remind us of what we
should and shouldn't do.
The third and most important of
the three objectives is to try to keep
as many student letters out of the
Kernel as jxissible. After all, the stuthe
dents aren't writing the paper
Kernel stall is. If some of these letters got in the paper there would
surely be trouble because sometimes
students disagree with the editor. Perhaps the Kernel staff would be intery
ested in knowing that the frontal
is perfected now. This would
surely take care of any of the people
who get angry, which is in truth not
the good Cluistian attitude.
In dosing I would like to say
congratulations, Kernel! You've done
it again. Keep those healthy, upstanding articles coming, and maybe papeis
such as the Caidinal will abandon any
ideas of tiying to produce clever,
ai tides and take our
Kernel as an example.
