Faculty and administrators voice
student code committee Opinions

By BRUCE WINGES

Kernel Staff Writer
(Editor's note: This is the final part of a series dealing
with how members of the Advisory Committee on Student

(‘ode Revision feel about the committee itself and‘the
process for student code revision.)

University administrators and faculty members who
serve on the Advisory Committee on Student Code
Revision said they feel the revision process is sound and
the committee has done well.

Three administrators, three faculty members and three
students make up the committee. The Code of Student
(‘onduct deals with rules. procedures, rights and
responsibilities governing non—academic offenses against

changes and holds an open hearing for the University
community to discuss proposed changes.

The proposed changes are then forwarded to President

Trustees. The Board of Trustees is the only body that may
amend the student code.

“I‘m biased. being chairman of the committee, but I
think the committee has done its job well." said Dr.
Robert Zumwinkle. committee chairman and vice
president for student affairs. “The committee has made it
clear that anyone in the University can submit proposals.
And it has been fair and open in dealing with proposals of
all sorts.“

“I THINK procedurally the committee operates under
good. honest efforts to permit all people to come forth and
say what they think." said Rutherford Campbell,
committee member and associate law professor.

and open discussion of the issues. said Dr. Donald
Diedrich. committee member and pharmacology
professor.

argument. This shows that the tough issues are being
addressed. I hope the sessions become even more
exciting."

John Darsie. committee member and University legal
counsel. also said the committee discusses proposals
freely. “There is a pretty frank exchange of views and
information in the committee.” Darsie said. He added the
committee members have been responsible in carrying
out their duties.

Zumwinkle said the committee considers each proposal
within thecontext of the rest of the code. “I think this (the
code) is one of the best documents of this type in the
country." he said.

SCB defections should be reviewed

The Student Center Board (SCB)
appears to be having trouble keeping
staff members. The latest defection
‘came Tuesday night. when SCB
Program Director Lynn Hayes
announced her resignation.

Add to that the mass exodus of last
May, when three other SCB staffers
quit: Mike Armstrong, assistant
program director; Charles O’Neill,
program adviser; and Diane Kohler,
SCB secretary. That means that with
Hayes resignation, the complete SCB
staff of six months ago will be gone.

for these resignations is internal
dissension between the SCB staff and
Mary Jo Mertens, Student Center
Director.

Apparently, the major differences
between Mertens and the SCB staff
arose over the question of how much
responsibility and power should be
delegated to students within the SCB.

The number of staff resignations is
disquieting, but perhaps the most
disturbing aspect of the whole
controversy is the fact that SCB
members who were willing to discuss
reasons for the resignations with the

names used because they feared
reprisals against the board. This
indicates that the atmosphere within
the Student Center Board is hardly
conducive to open discussion between
board members and the
administrators who control Student
Center operations.

It is to be expected that whenever a
bureaucratic system is set up with
students as underlings and
administrators as controllers that
a power struggle will result. In
such a situation the students often feel
powerless and administrators feel

ground for dissatisfaction on all sides.
Such a situation seems to exist in the
Student Center at present.

It is hard to know what gripes are
well-founded when the only available
information is rumors and hearsay.
But it is clear that something is amiss
when four staff members resign
within a six-month period.

Perhaps someone not connected
with Student Center operations

WASHINGTON — With Mr.
Rockefeller's penchant for giving
public officials extra
compensation, we may be able to

Farewell address: A time of mediocrity

By JOHN JUNO'I‘

(Editor's note; This comment is the
first of a series of three comments by John
Junot.)

To the
community:

I lived within your community almost
seven years to the day. In that time, I
became, like the flappers of the 20’s or the
leather-jacketed hoods of the 50's, a
character that personified my time and
place.

It is important to say that what my
generation did back then was not mere
frivolity. We changed history. We were
inside history. And making history, seizing
our own destiny, or at least a small part of
it. from those who tried to control it for
their own ends, was an experience so
profound as to be a constant force in all the
rest of our lives.

University of Kentucky

REGARD FOR old friends. as well as
respect for the community where l spent
such a crucial period of my life. requires
this one last piece of public correspond-
ence. A farewell address, summarizing
my feelings. my learnings. and my advice.

Recently I have been appalled at the
gradually and steadily declining level of
intellectual and existential awareness on
this and (so say the media) other
campuses

A large part of the blame for this
deterioration must lay squarely on the
faculty and administration. I am reminded
of the three administrators I knew best —-
()tis Singletary. Robert Zumwinkle, and
Jack Hall. Three bright young men who
went into the world. worked hard, and
achieved mediocrity. For they were not
mediocre by nature; they had to work for
it.

BUT THEY ARE probably only
representative of their generation in their
profession. Not that they, or other

educators. can be held personally
responsible for this intellectually stagnant
atmosphere. They are largely the product
of their times and their system.

What is the nature of that system?
Contrary to its rhetoric, it really has no
tradition or history. It didn’t exactly
spring from a dragon's tooth — but that’s
close. lt exploded into being after WWII,
taking a number of rather bucolic and
intimate campuses, with their tradition of
intellectual excellence and elitism, and
turning them into a major industry, with
all the downgrading such rapid expansion
implies. It has not significantly evolved
since then. Like a jellyfish or blob of lime,
it has simply grown larger without imp
roving.

In 30 years one would hope that
educators could have found a way to raise
the level of the more democratically-based
student body. Instead, most educators
have come to value the causes of this
mediocrity — huge size and wanton
physical expansion, with the government

The Eagle still screams

By RONALD I). HAWKINS

It is encouraging in this day of the easy
buck in journalism that The Mountain
Eagle in Whitesburg, Kentucky, still
screams.

However, after destruction of $25,000
worth of equipment August 1, it is
questionable how well The Eagle will be
able to scream in the near future.

Several organizations are joining
together on separate fronts to raise money
for The Eagle. In addition to benefits in
Lexington and Louisville, benefit concerts
have been scheduled in such distant places
as Washington, DC. and California.

In the past, The Mountain Eagle has
been a critic of operators of strip-mines,
overweight coal trucks, police harassment
of teen-agers, the Letcher County school
board, anit-poverty officials and state
government officials.

It is a pretty courageous weekly
newspaper that will take on the powerful
so relentlessly and so necessarily. And of
course. when it begins to look like the
newspaper is a bit too bold, thenewspaper
faces the extreme wrath of some elements
of the community.

Last week in Whitesburg, three men
were arrested, including a former
Whiteshurg city policeman. and were
charged with aiding. willful and malicious

burning in connection with The Mountain
Eagle arson.

The Eagle has faced advertising
boycotts and financial problems before,
but never before was the newspaper
damaged to the extent of $25,000. The
Eagle was insured up to $10,000. That
means $15,000 in uninsurable damage was
done to the newspaper‘s offices.

UK English professor and author
Wendell Berry will emcee a benefit at the
University of Louisville Oct. 24 at the Red
Barn.

The following Monday, the UK chapter
of The Society of Professional Journalists
(SDX) will present a benefit concert at
8: 15 pm. in Memorial Hall. Mountain
Eagle editor Tom Gish will be present as
world—famous Appalachian musician Jean
Ritchie, The Monterey Progress Red Hot
String Band and Jack Wright perform.

When a member of the community is
burned out, it is proper to help them
rebuild, no matter how distasteful that
person may or may not be to the
individual. The citizens of Kentucky owe
that to The Mountain Eagle if for no other
reason than that brotherhood extends
beyond political boundaries.

funds these bring —- and eventually the
mediocrity itself.

MEDIOCRITY is the watchword of the
campus. Mediocrity is rewarded, valued,
and encouraged. Intellectual excellence is
disappearing, not because of active attack,
but by the process of being starved and
crowded out, like a field of corn left to
weeds.

The educational system is not “just
another part" of society, but is also the
measure of it. For if intellectual
excitement does not exist on the
campuses, where then should one look?
For the universities are the essence of our
nation's collective mind. If sheer
fascination and wonder are not there, then
they can be nowhere within society.

So look outside: to the deviants,
outcasts, outlaws, and even criminals.
There is where you find today the qualities
of workmanship, love of excellence, ideas
for their own sake, moral honesty. Indeed,
as I want to make clear, exhibiting such
qualities (except in the most technical and
immediately applicable and profitable
fields) virtually guarantees one’s ex—
clusion from the mainstream.

AND HOW HAVE we come to this
“C-minus” time, ruled by “C-minus”
men? In our nation, this declining process
started just a little over a century ago, in
other nations about a century or so before
that. This process is the shifting of the
leadership and administration of most
productive activities from an aggregate of
entrepreneurs to a class of corporate
managers.

An aggregate is but a group of people
who just happen to be at the same place at
the same time. A “class” is a group with
many intricate and complicated symbiotic
and reciprocal relationships.

The primary difference between the
entrepreneur and the manager is the
different ways they measure achievement.
The entrepreneur measures himself
through his observed impact on the real
world as measured by some absolute
standards.

THIS IS NOT to say that entrepreneurs
are limited to occupations like business or
engineering where the object of activity
can be measured precisely and absolutely.
There have been and are now entrepren-
eurs of the spirit, of justice, of love and
good-feeling. For just because something
cannot be defined or measured precisely
means neither that that quality is
non—existent or non-absolute. That would
be like saying that since music cannot be
precisely measured, there is no difference
between music and noise.

Hans-Georg Rauch

For all people have a spirit, and know
when that spirit is violated or fulfiled;al
have a sense of justice, and know when
justice is denied; all desire good-feeling
and love, and know when these are
crushed. Furthermore, all people are
capable of feeling gradations — even
precise ones — in all these qualities. So it is
quite possible for a spiritual entrepreneur
to measure his achievements by
absolutes: i.e. has he increased the
amount of justice, love, or good-feeling in
the world?

The corporate managerial class, on the
other hand, has no such real standards of
achievement or justification. It looks for
validation only to itself. Or, rather, each
individual member of this class looks
primarily to his peers and colleagues,
rather than some objective measure of
achievement, for self-validation and
“success".

IT IS THE nature of such system for
each member to deceive the other — call it
lying, persuading, selling, or brown-
nosing. The primary effect of the
complexity of this class —— even within the
sub—unit of one corporation —— is to make
the assignment of responsibility, and (to a
slightly lesser extent) the reward for
achievement practically impossible.
(Though people are rewarded and
punished for actions and effects, they may
not, in fact, be the ones responsible.)

The corporate manager class lacks any
mechanism for reality testing. It has only
an incestuous system of lies and
self delusion. In very precise and technical
psychiatric terms our political-economic
system is largely psychotic.

Others may attack me for condemning a
system which has, seemingly, created the
highest standard of living and level of
justice in history. I argue that the system
that controls us today is not the system
that created that wealth. Only people who
have an intimate, non—alienated relation-
ship with their labor and its products, who
therefore take responsibility for its social
effect, can create wealth. That is the
entrepreneurial system. Any other rela-
tionship between labor and wealth, and the
system based on such a relationship — i.e.,
the corporate managerial system —- can
only destroy wealth. And that is what’s
happening now: our social wealth and
social justice are rapidly being squand~
ered into financial and moral bankruptcy.

THE FOREGOING statement has been
a good summation of all I have learned
while at the University of Kentucky. My
feelings are obvious and wellcxpressed in
that statement. Now for my advice.
