Barksdale, this weekend (September 6 & 7) described a future in which students will have the ultimate power in higher education to North Carolina College faculty members in their annual Facul ty Institute. Dr. Albert N, Whiting, presi dent of North Carolina Col lege, said Dr. Barksdale's vision of the future is "fright ening." Dr. Barksdale, who spoke twice during the two-day insti tute, reminisced of the time when college presidents held such power in their institutions that nothing happened without their knowledge and direction. He described approvingly the shift of power from the presi dent to the faculty, and warned the faculty members that they will have to leam to live with the prospect of student power. "1968 is a year of Revolu tion," Dr. Barksdale said. "The thing about revolutions is that revolutionaries are never satis fled, and well have to live in that atmosphere."

Dr. Cordice was later told that he could stay on the staff at the hospital if he desired, which he refused.
