Photo by Malcolm Gamble Politics At Berkeley BY PAUL STEPHENS THE COLLEGIATE PRESS SERVICE EDITED There are many complaints from all quarters with regard to the present state of the University of California. Taxpayers consider It too lavish and expensive, students charge it with being a political tool, others have claimed that academic freedom Is threatened by Sacramento. When Clark Kerr was fired, it was demanded that the Board of Regents be abolished, and that stu dents and faculty members be given complete control over UC affairs. However, Blrchers balk at supporting all sorts of “sub versives.” Well, I have a solution which will satisfy every one of these demands and grievances. My proposal Is simply to sell the entire UC system to the highest bidder(s). If students and faculty mem bers can enlist sufficient support, then they may buy it and run it as they see fit. Or perhaps they could only afford to buy one r two campuses, or perhaps all of the less developed ones, which would be cheaper. Then every single reform — real or Imagined — could be instituted without hindrance. Academic freedom, which seems to include “free sex”, no grades, “freak-outs,” von Meier, and a socialist student newspaper, could become a reality. However, these people would not be able to extort a single cent from those who regard such an enterprise as unworthy. In short, freedom of choice — at least in this one small area — would be restored. An Immediate consequence of this one act would be to more than balance the state budget. However, the greatest consequence resulting from the successful sale of such a vast government enterprise would be Its exhibltional efffect. If carried out pro perly, It would demonstrate the feasibility of disbanding the entire socialized education system we have today, as well as hundreds of other government enterprises which account for more than one-half of present tax expenditures. On the national level, in come from such sales could be applied to the national debt (no, we don’t owe it to ourselves In any meaningful sense), thus making financial stability possible. With greatly lowered taxes, there could still be a substantial budget surplus. Finally, all the regulatory agencies (the FCC, ICC, FAA, SEC, FDA, Federal Reserve System, ad nauseum) must be abolished — or better yet, abolish them first. Meanwhile, but not at all In cidentally, such irrational legislation as the draft, anti-trust laws, anti-sex, obscenity, and abortion laws — to name Just a part — should be reversed. Contrary to the general practice, I advocate freedom fbr everyone, not Just some special group. At that time, Statlsm, which holds that man exists for the Tribe, the St^e, the Public Interest, God, the Common Good, or what have you) would cease to be the dominant trend and a defining characteristic of our politico-economic system. The ri^t to life and its corollary rights — liberty, property, and the pursuit of happiness — would be guaranteed to the individual as was once promised. IS it possible that all this could result from the sale 6f our own little UC system? I think so. If the UC system were sold success fully, the rest would be likely to follow within a few years. Because the fundamentals of the University, Including its existence as a public Institution, are now in question, lam submitting this proposal at this time.
