MARKLEY DEBATE: GA To Seet
Feldkamp, Kahn Differ on Role Talks With

4. .;,':
Of Regents in Rules Changes
By CAROLYN MIEGEL
Although "committed to selling
4Lhe idea of self-determination of
women's hours" to the Regents,
Director of University Housing
John Feldkamp maintains that
Regents still "have the ultimate
responsibility" in determining
non-academic conduct rules for
students
&Student Government Council
President Bruce Kahn, '68, dis-
agreed, saying that students want
not just "a liberalization of pol-
icy, but alsd a liberalization of
the policy-making procedure,"
Feldkamp and Kahn spoke last
night at a debate in Markley Hall
;ponsored by Student Pilot Coun-
cil, the student government body
of the Pilot Project. John Lottier,
'68, associate editorial director of
The Daily, was also on the panel.
Kahn went on to say that "stu-
dents should be telling the Uni-
versity that they no longer expect
*dministrators to make the rules
for their lives." The University
can give in on many issues," he
said, "things that they can afford
to do without, things that lie at
the periphery of what the Univer-
sity is all about-like women's
hours."
Unique Conflict
Feldkamp viewed the women's
hours conflict as "unique" in Uni-
versity life. The Regental review
of the Board of Governors of the
Residence Halls' decision was also
labeled unique. Last month the
board voted unanimously to al-
lAy individual houses to deter-
mine their own rules on hours
and visitation policy.
Kahn accused the University
administration of "head-hiding"-
the administration "looks the
other way instead of solving the
problem, instead of helping the
tudent."
All three members of the debate
examined the role of the Reed
and Knauss Reports on student
participation.
Feldkamp explained that both
reports commit the University "to
leveloping the students to their
maximum capabilities" and to the
idea that students should be in-
cluded at every level of the Uni-
versity life. This includes rules
on student conduct.

Recruiters
Resolution Prompted
By Dow Appearance
At 'U' in February
By ROB BEATTIE
A resolution calling for per-
sons or organizations using Uni-
versity facilities for recruiting
purposes to hold open discussions
concerning their activities and
policies was passed by Graduate
Assembly at its meeting last
night.
The resolution was prompted by
the announcement that the Dow
Chemical Company will be re-
cruiting on campus in February.
Th6 demonstrations which oc-
cured during a visit by a Marine
Corps recruiter last November
also helped prompt the motion-
ing, according to GA President
Roy Ashmall.
Ashmall explained that the
policy proposed by the resolution
would require recruiting organi-
zations to make their purposes
open to the University commun-
ity. "Organizations will be able
to express their opinions, and
members of the University will
be able to ask questions about
them," he pointed out.
Reflect on 'U'
"Organizations are using Uni-
versity facilities when they recruit
here," Ashmall continued. "There-
fore their actions reflect on stu-
dents and faculty who are a part

they are required to discuss what

tion's stipulations.
Complete Spectrum
In debate on the resolution one
speaker pointed out that one func-
tion of a university is to make
possible the exploration of the
complete spectrum of viewpoints.
Because of this, GA adopted the
discussion policy for its facilities
and urged the University to do the
same.

YPSILANTI - America is the
most racist country in the world
and its blacks are as racist as its
whites, according to Dick Gregory,
comedian and civil rights activist
"We've got a right to hate you
just like you hate us," he ex-
plained.
The bearded Gregory appeared
weak during his two-hour speech
last night at Eastern Michigan
University. He is recuperating
from a 40-day fast, lasting from
Thanksgiving to New Year's Day,,
in "sympathy with the suffering
of both sides" in the Vietnam
war.
The "NAACP's a n s w e r to
Twiggy," as he described himself,
went from 155 to 103 pounds dur-
ing his fast.
Gregory warned that America
had "better wake up and find out
how deeply we are racist. But we
are so sick and insane, we refuse
to admit that racism exists. We
inherited it."
Gregory combined humor with
serious social commentary in
pointing up the deep problems
this country faces. Unless things
change soon, he contends, "this
country won't last."
"We Negroes don't want any
special favors. We just want our
rights as guaranteed in the Con-
stitution. The white folks can
take the civil rights bill, and we'll
take the Constitution."
Speaking of the riots of the
past several summers, Gregory
said that although he is non-
violent, "it's not realistic to ig-

that favor back.
"Why does everyone get so up-
set about black violence and not
about white violence?" he asks.
While proposing no solutions, he
warned that we're not going to put
up with the insults" much longer.
"You can call me 'nigger,' but
don't spit on me while you're
saying it."
He explained that Negroes, in
general "don't hate white folks,E
we hate the system." For it is the
system, he claims, that made theI
Negro the second class citizen he
is. "You are right, we're dirty.
You made us dirty."
The problem with this country
is not air pollution, he continued,
"It's moral pollution. We lie from1
one end of this country to the
other.
The politicians, he added, are
the "worst breed" of liars. "I ,
have absolutely no respect for
politicians."
Commenting at an earlier press,
conference on the 1968 Presi-
dential hopefuls, he called Gov-
ernor Romney "the most ethical,
honest politician" in the race.
Sen. Eugene McCarthy (D-
Minn.), running as a peace can-
didate, "doesn't have an answer
to the war. He makes no sense'"
according to Gregory.

Pointing' to "the fact that the Gregory promises that his first
Constitution guarantees the right 1 actions as President would be to
to bear arms." he said that "non- "paint the White House black, and
violence is not an obligation, it's send the Negroes back to Africa

NEW YORK (4)-Columbia
University said it has ended its
seven-week ban against on-
campus military recruiting. Re-

November in protest against
Selective Service director Lt.
Gen. Lewis Hershey's directive
to local draft boards to re-
classify individuals who partici-
pate in anti-draft or anti-war
demonstrations.

ing nearly six hours of sanc-

an undisclosed destination.
Brown had earlier sought re-
fuge from a policeman chasing
him for alleged misconduct.

Gregory has threatened to dis-
rupt the Democratic National
Convention to be held in Chicago
next August. He said he feels
that it is an "insult to pick Chi-
cago for the convention site. This
choice is as if the Democratic
Party was endorsing the repres-

Despite the name University of
Michigan Press, only one-half to
three-quarters of the Press' titles
are by University faculty mem-
bers. This is not due to friction
between the faculty and the Press,
but rather to the specialized na-
ture of Press publications.
In fact, relations with the fac-
ulty are quite good. In 1965 then

Human "cocoons" gathered
Sunday evening to share a
drugless "high."
That is, a large audience in
Aud. D became part of an ex-
periment designed to present.
"Drug Alternatives and Com-
plements.' '
In what master of ceremonies
Prof. Richard Miller of the
psychology department termed
a "micro-lab" session, students
attending Drug Teach-In were
introduced to a new way of "ex-
periencing oneself and others."
"Let yourself experience being
in your own private cocoon.
Reach out and feel the inside
of it, explore the texture."
Once they had surveyed the
territory, he let them out of
their "cocoon." With their eyes
still closed, they were told to
reach out until they touched
down on a foreign hand.
After exploring the hand, stu-
dents were permitted to open
their eyes and talk with the
person they had "encountered.'
With contact thus established,
Miller continued, "Now we are
starting the verbal phase; the
process of knowing one another
began again.
"I wanted to plan an experi-
ence meaningful to a large
group of people, to involve
them," Miller explained in an
interview later,
"It was a. whole devejop-
mental process," he said. "The
cocoon is like the original pla-
centa, the quartets the family,
the octets the beginning of so-
cial groups.
"On another level," he con-
tinued, "most of the country is
in a cocoon. We're living in a
turned-off society. People are

unself-consciously. "We have
something beautiful-I feel like
I really know you, and we've
just met!" said one girl.
"It showed me you could stop
and talk with someone standing
next to you in the subway," a
boy later commented. One sti-o
dent went up to Miller at the
end and said, "It was the best
thing that's happened to me in
college." One group, that had
been strangers fifteen minutes
before, left together for P.J.'s
to continue "the experience."
