IT MUST BE CLEARED UP!
Responsible members of the University administration
whose duties bring them continually in direct student contact
realize this: '
The enforcement of the trustee ruling prohibiting drinking,
hazing and gambling has been farcically ineffective and hypo
critically administered.
They realize it no more, however, than students on the cam
pus, and particularly those connected with student govern
ment. Student government has been repeatedly ensnared in
the repercussive effects of administrative attempts to enforce
the ruling and administrative concessions in the face of the sit
uation's reality.
If the administration did not tacitly agree that there is
drinking on the campus, it would not have aided in effecting
rules governing drinking in fraternity houses with co-eds pres
ent. ' .
If the administration did not realize that hazing is more or
less common on the campus, it would not discuss the evils of
Hell Week, but it would act forcefully to abolish such practices.
The administration has acted as wisely as possible in its
impossible situation. It has recognized actualities and asked
students to assume the responsibility for enforcing the rules.
At the same time, it has tried to preserve as far as possible
the letter of the trustee ruling demanding "faculty dismissal'
of culprits.
But no matter how wisely the administration has acted, a
nasty situation has grown up.
We have the spectacle of an administration trying to op
erate under a ruling which it realizes can never be enforced
unless strict, full administrative control of conduct were in
order.'
We have the spectacle of the same administration foster
ing and cherishing free student government and broad stu
dent powers in the field of student control.
The situation has a stultifying effect on student govern
' ment. '
It has a deteriorating effect on student morale.
It has a gnawing effect on administrative conscience.
The student council plans to petition the trustees to change
the word "dismiss" in the ruling to "discipline."
This would allow the student council to act on these cases
on the merits of the individual cases and not with the sword
"dismiss" over its head. At present the student council has no
set rule against drinking. That is a wise policy.
The adminstration has delegated to the student council
-
what powers it has in these cases. It also has turned over to
the council, under the present rule, the grim letter of the
law: DISMISS THE CULPRITS!
The change in wording would remove the hypocrisy of the
situation. It would ease conscience. It would raise morale.
President Graham has agreed to take the council's petition
to the trustees personally.
The administration thus actively as well as tacitly realizes
the impossibility of the situation. IT MUST BE CLEARED
UP. '
