AD HOC GROUP:
Committees consider reforms
in curricula of literary college

New protests open at Columbia

By MICHAEL THORYN
Several committees concerned
with academic reform in the liter-
ary college are involved in the first
step to success-talk.
An informal group with no set
membership, the Committee for
Academic Reform discussed dis-,
tribution requirements, especially
language requirements, and var-
ious methods of organization at
a meeting Sunday.
Other student committees con-
cerned with the academic issue
are a group studying the possibil-
ity of ah interdepartmental de-
partment. This groulp is headed by
SGC at large member Gayle Ru-
bin, '71.
Another group, headed by SGC
member Panther White, '69, is
concerned with the psychology
outreach program, as well as the
literary college and Honors steer-
ing committees.
Some of the impetus for reform
came from Michael Rossman, a
_ traveling emissary for educational
reform who ran workshops here on
Sept. 2-4. SGC paid him $150
for his efforts.
Interested students did little

with their new resolve during the
next weeks because of a similar
deep commitment in the continu-
ing problems of Ann Arbor wel-
fare mothers.
Mark Hodax, '70, a member of
the ad hoc Committee for Aca-
demic Reform said, "I want to see
students expending energy in ef-
forts meaningful to them."
Bob Neff, '69 executive v i c e -
president of SGC urged the group
"to get at gut-issues. Try -to get
rid of the language requirement
or get it on pass-fail," Neff said.
Two years of language study or
a tested equivalent are required
of literary .college students.
A small language study com-
mittee will be talking to depart-
ment chairmen and will attempt
to gather more student support. A
meeting is scheduled for 4 p.m.
Wednesday at the SAB.
Members described their lang-
uage experience, largely in French
and Spanish, as "time-consum-
ing, "busy work," and "'iot worth
studying."
One student said, "Languages
are used to weed out underclass-
men who don't want to study."
Michael Koeneke, president of
SGC, noting the diffuse nature

of the reform groups, said, "Coun-
cil will set up a central meeting
place."
"I'm not going to pick a chair-
man," Koeneke continued. "SGC
will try to stimulate the ad hoc
committees."
Koeneke is working with the
language requirement committee.
Recognizing stident interest in
academic reform, the history de-
partment is sponsoring an o p e n
forum for students in history, Fri-
day at 1 p.m. in the Rackham
amphitheater.
William Willcox, chairman of
the department said "the foruml
is completely unstructured.'It's a
voluntary get-together."
Several faculty members will
attend. Willcox said the forum
"could possibly set up a steering
committee."
A reform committee member
considered the current activity
and said, "There's a lot of things
happening. Things haven't jelled
yet."

(Continued from Page 1)
but said all would get a fair
hearing.
Earlier in the year, when stu-
dents were called to disciplin-
ary hearings before deans, sev-
eral campus leaders of the re-
volt refused to appear or to rec-
ognize the authority of the uni-
versity to discipline them. Many
campus leaders and faculty
members have called for amnes-
ty for everyone involved in the,
disorders.
At a faculty meeting 1 a s t
Thursday, a resolution asking
for total amnesty was defeated,
reportedly by a vote of 240 to
160.
The meeting was preceded by
an attempt of about 200 stu-
dents to forge their way into the
closed room. There was no vio-
lence, only pushing and shoving,
until the door was locked and
the stuiidnts left.
T h e faculty meeting passed
new rules governing peaceful
demonstrations on the campus.
Prof. Michael Sovern, chairman
of the faculty executive com-
mittee, said the new ruls will

provide wide latitude for picket-
ing and protest, but include dis-
cipline to prevent disruption of
of campus life.
The previously-illegal indoor
protests were okayed, but vio-
lence, loud noise, force, blocking
doorways, mass, invasions of of-
fices and other disruptions were
outlawed. The university presi-
d e n t is required to consult a
faculty committee before he
calls police; protesters must be
notified if police are to be used.
Infractions of the rule will be
punishable by measures ranging
from disciplinary probation to
expulsion. Appeal mechanisms
are provided. Those arrested by
police will be subject to suspen-
sion.
Indications are that the radi-
cal leaders will not be satisfied
with the new rules or with in-
clusion of students on university
governing boards. Last week a
majority of 150 to 200 students
attending closed SDS meetings
reportedly favored an immediate
beginning of strike activity and
renewed student demand for
amnesty.

Those at the meetings report-
edly agreed to pursue these
goals:
-Expansion of t h e student
strike to involve people of the
local community such as high
school students and Puerto Ri-
can and, Negro residents. Co-
lumbia is adjacent to Harlem.
- Better housing for tenants
of apartment buildings owned
by Columbia and the exposure
of "institutional racism" in
housing.
- A minimum wage of $110 a
week for all university em--
ployes.
- And end to all "war re-
search" on campus.
- Abolishment of the School
for International Affairs, of
which Cordier is dean, the Na-
v a 1 Reserve Officers Training
Corps and all ties with the In-
stitute for Defense Analyses.
- Guarantees that there will
be no fines, jail terms or repris-
als against those students ar-
rested.
The spring protests and sit-
ins began with complaints by

students against university con-
struction of a gymnasium, The
The protesters argued that it
encroached on Harlem. They al-
so objected to university links
to the IDA.
The gym construction has
been halted and Columbia has
severed its institutional ties
with IDA although individuals
from the school still work for it.
These issues, however, be-
came submerged into more fun-
damental criticism of the struc-
ture and operation of the uni-
versity.
Another student activity that
could affect the reopening is an
International Assembly of Stu-
dent Movements scheduled for
Sept. 18 through Sept. 24 or 25.
Meetingk are to take place at
Columbia and New York Uni-
versity.
SDS, which is running the as-
sembly, says the purpose is to
gain an understanding of the
various s t u d e n t movements
around the world.
Groups ; are expected, SDS
says, from Canada, France,
West Germany, England, Spain,

Italy and possibly others. de-
pending on finances.
Columbia's school year ended
in chaos last spring following
clashes that involved adminis-
tration, students, faculty and
New York City police.
A sit-in that began April 23
spread, and students quickly oc-
cupied five campus buildings.
Eight days later, 1,000 city po-
lice cleared the buildings and
arrested more than 700 persons,
There were dnearly 200 injured.
Some students a n d faculty,
outraged over the use of police
force, supported the strike.
Formal classes ended.
Three weeks later, another
demonstration was held, to pro-
test the suspension of leaders of
the earlier protest. Columbia
President Grayson Kirk called
in the police early the n e x t
morning, May 22.
More than 100 arrests were
made without incident at first,
but rows of helmeted policemen
swept across the campus. Stu-
dents tosse'd bricks. Several po-
li'cemen were seriously injured
and nearly '100 students were
clubbed.
