'NEW MORALITIES':
Aiken Compliments
Youthful Idealism
By ANNE BUESSER
Dr. Henry Aiken, visiting pro-
fessor of philosophy from Brandeis
University, praised "last ditch
idealism," for today's youth at a
National Student Sesquicentennial
Conference yesterday. He spoke to1
student leaders from various uni-]
versities on "The New Morality."
Dr. Aiken explained that "There
is no such thing as 'new moral-
ity'," but instead a set of "new
moralities" resulting from life in?
"an age and time of perpetual9
crisis."
Constant confrontation of ex-
treme situations forces the young
person to question the validity off
the, established morality: A stu-
dent cannot have faith in the con-
tinuing development of man when
he is haunted by the "genuine
recurrent possibility of extinction
of the human race."
Another major reason cited for
the disillusionment in the younger
generation is the "central incapa-
city of our central institutions to
solve the major social and spir-
Itual problems." He noted the
breakdown of the family, "venal-
ity and disorder" in educational
institutions, subservience, of much
scientific research to the state,
and deepening international disor-
ders.
As a result, said Dr. Aiken,
"there is a dimming sense of re-
Narrow List of
Candidates for
'U' Presidency
(Continued from Page 1)
It is reported that Briggs has
been doing "a scrupulously ob-
jective, thorough and fair job" in
the presidential selection process.
"He's been terrific," says a Regent.
The Regents are also paying
close 'attention to faculty and stu-
dent advisory committees.
All the prime prospects are
being checked out for acceptabil-
ity with the faculty and student
committees. "We'll eliminate a
prospect who the faculty or stu-
dents are against," says one Re-
gent.
The Regents have compiled ex-
tensive dossiers on all candidates
"It's a terribly impressive group
of candidates," says one Regent
"Everyone's got a Phi Beta Kappa
key."
They are moving very cautiously
before actually making an offer.
"We don't want to offer it to a
man and have him turn it down,"
says another Regent.
Reports indicate that Hatcher
has remained scrupulously im-
partial during the selection pro-
cess." He hasn't done one thing or
said one word to try to influence
the selection process," reports a
Regent. "He's being a perfect
gentleman about it."
The Regents remain confident
they can get the "right" man for
the post. "After all," says one
Regent, "It's not a bad job and it
pays pretty well."
sponsibility on the part of the!
most gifted and self-conscious
youth to the institutions they nev-
er made and from which they are
excluded."
In response, the individual may
lose respect for any authority, or
he may adopt what Dr. Aiken par-
alleled with the "classical Greek
attitude." This means believing in
the value of self-development and
perfection, and "sharing in the
sense that the individual ,person
is profoundly deserving of respect."
'This is what Dr- Aiken termed
"last ditch idealism," "the most
authentic sort of idealism possi-
ble in the age in which we live."
There are those, however, who
do not accept the responsibility
of the Greek ideal. These are the
people who misuse the new morali-
ties by "confusing eccentricity
with individuality." They do not
distinguish between pure novelty
and originality. They advocate di-
versity for its own sake, and for-
get that "The right to conform is
as significant as the right to be
different."
Dr. Aiken summed up this tend-
ency with the label "fickleness."
He remarked on the decline of in-
terest in the civil rights move-
ment and the Vietnam issue.
"'Flaming Creatures' and 'Blow
Job' ought not to compete with
Vietnam. It is our prime concern."
Officials Call
For Action one
Fiscal Plan
(Continued from Page 1)
"We expect an increase through
fiscal reform," he said, "but if the
appropriation remains unchanged,
we will have no recourse but to
raise student fees." The hike
there would be about $75 per stu-
dent per year.
Serious Discrepancy
Wayne State University Presi-
dent William R. Keast said that
there is a "serious discrepancy"
between Wayne's budget request
and the governor's $33.8 million
recommendation.
Keast said that Wayne officials
are now considering "the mini-
mum with which we can run this
university, and all possible means
methods to meet the cut in the
proposed budget." He said that
the university has already insti-
tuted budget restraints to "insure
maximum flexibility of the budget
next year."
At Western Michigan Univer-
sity Robert Wetnight, vice presi-
dent for finance said "the amount
which the new budget allots West-
ern Michigan is certainly less than
our projected needs."
Eastern Michigan University of-
ficials told the visiting Appro-
priations Committee that in their
interpretations, Romney's budget
proposals are "not realistic," ac-
cording to Louis Profit, vice presi-
dent for finance.

Isaacson:'Art Must Become
Reality To Improve World'
By TERRY TROY
Life is an illusion: art has no
choice but to become the reality,
explained Prof. Joel Isaacson of
the history of art department
yesterday.
The first ,speakerin the Na-
tional Student Sesquicentennial
Conference, Isaacson spoke on "Is
Social Change Reflected in the
Arts?" to a small audience at
Lydia Mendelssohn Theater.
Because of his belief that "art
and the world today have one
to one relationship," Isaacson
deemed it necessary to have an
understanding of society before
attempting an understanding of
contemporary art.
"I am profoundly pessimistic
about society," Isaacson said:
"Thirty-five to fifty million Amer-
icans are poor; the Negro is ex-
cluded from society; cities are at
the point of decay; technological
advances are not being matched
by advantages in ways to deal
with the resultant human dis-
placement; and the pressures to-
ward conformity are overwhelm-
ing."
In addition, he asserted that the
United States is "fighting a war
against have-nots," an illegal, im-
moral, irrational war.
Only art, Isaacson continued,
can prevent the holocaust towards
which we are moving. There must
be a reversal caused by art--a
new concern for the individual,
and increased sensibility.
The function of contemporary
art is not just to inform the
viewer of the conditions that exist,
Isaacson said, but to actually try
to transform the world.
"This cannot be accomplished
with an all-encompassing, simul-
taneous change of heart in all peo-
ple: art communcites to the in-
dividual; if enough individuals re-,
ceive the increased sensibility that
art has to give, society might
change."
To relate art .to life, then, there
is a necessary link, Isaacson ex-
plained. If the person contemplates
art, and contemplates it' in per-
son, he emphasized, he can withj
his heightened sensibility bridge
the gap between the reality of art,
and the falsity of life.
Isaacson used slides to illustrate
various examples of contemporary
art, projecting images whose con-
cerns included civil 'rights, urban
sprawl, male potency, abortion
laws, and affluence.
Isaacson implied a rebuttal to
the statement that art "reflects"
social change. "Previous gener-
ations' artists reflected reality in
their works, yet a work was not
considered complete until the
viewer himself contributed to the
work." Now, however, "people
don't look at art, art looks at peo-
ple." "4Art," Isaacson said, "is the
reality, not the reflection.'
