PAGE TWO THE DAILY - TAR HEEL, A Student There should be no second class student' at the University of North Carolina. ' Any, person who gains admission here is entitled to be a student first class. To admit students, and then to discriminate against them because "of race, religion, creed, or economic circumstance, is thoroughly repugnant to tne cardinal principle for which this venerable citadel of Not Guilty by Perry Farbor The Fourth Annual NSA Con gress started off ike dynamite breakfast of Philip Morris and fingernails, and spend the next fifteen hours: clashing, cursing, and campaigningfor- academic freedom, a fair system of . draft H Afprment. a Student Bill of Rights, the honor "system, and other resolutions designed to give American students a square deal, The air , over Minneapolis and sun was still snoring, enjoy a ulty, and fullbacks:. , President Truman sent best wishes.

The next four students.. The resolution, as originally adopted by the Board teen days saw these delegates of Trustees, was in our highest tradition of enlightened policy, climb out of a sack while the Since that time, however, we have been forced to ponder the whereabouts of those "good works" which evidence that declaration of "good faith." The most recent decision, re- -quiring Negro students to sit in segregated areas at football games, is but the latest of a number of questionable situations which have occurred regarding such things as the Medical " School banquet, the use of gym facilities, .housing facilities, etc. . There is another interesting aspect to the latest announce ment of the Administration. At Friday night pep-rallies, we have often heard Universitv officials declaim that athletic activities constitute an integral part of the University and rightly so, for if they did riot ,' they ha ve no reason to exist. Now we learn that the University actually makes a sharp dicholomy between athletics and' education. To state that a umver-sity and. the athletics activities it sponsors are sep arable elements, is to indul ge in the most brazen form of casuisfeey. To distinguish between Negroes sitting in Lenoir r Mem?ial Ifalls and-Negroes sitting in Kenan Stadium is siieer deiusion. " . , More deeply felt by those of us who have been in close -association with the Administration is the inconsistency of " the pMey with tfee .integrity, fairess, and high-pur posefull--. nesss ehacter-Himstrated in so many past occasions- of those pe9&s who constitute the Administration. It has-been said by t2aose who would defend the Adminis- tratio's policy, that ft is necessaryto consider the many pres es which are bcotsifiht to bear on the Administration, es peciaHy e pressure of the public's reaction. This is a con sidesatiea wlktch has plagued educational leaders , throughout the history of cror democracy. Naturally, an educational in stitution is, in the last analysis, subject to the will of the people, jiast as is any other institution m a -democracy. ' Bt aa eqiaIy dear tenet of democracy is the concept traditionally recognized in our history that a university is nd must, continue to be free 'to go far beyond that which is accented ki society at large. For this reason most of the great ideas and significant movements that have lifted the level of our-western civilization have come from the univer sities, and these ideas have at the time most always shocked rather than satisfied the general public. r Char task is not to fight grudgingly the new social situation 'in wltsi we find owe&elves, but to make the transition N as 'exi&i&&sk&' smd as smoothly as possible.
