Meyer Talks to Students
On Local Discrimination
By BARBARA PASH
Mhe idea of an international
.versity, either under. the aus-
es of the United Nations or a
ional organization, is being dis-
sed by many groups in the
ited States and abroad.
the American society most ac-
e in this area has been the
mittee for the Study and Pro-
tion of an International Uni-
sity in.America..
Phis committee proposed the es-
lishment of an international
versity which would be mainly
raduate institution in the lib-
.1 arts field, although under-
duate studies are being con-
ered for the future. Professional
dies will not be offered.
Private Institution
this would be a private institu-
a initiated and built by the
ited States. They hope that the
w York World's Fair site might
converted into the framework
the university in 1965 when the
r is over."The university would
t be an organ of the United
tions.
kn international body of spon-
s would finance the Interna-
nal University, with an inter-
ional Board of Trustees to
?ervise its policies and manage-
nt.
>n December 30, 1960, three
ges of development were plan-

take six months. During this
ie, the committee intends to'

ad of Sponsors and secure the
cessary funds. Supposedly, these'
ectives have now been accom-
shed.
n the second stage, which will
t about one year, the corpora-
n . established in the previous
ge will organize the Board of
utstees, make contacts with the
rtles concerned and make neces-
y plans.
The last stage will be managed
the Board of Trustees. The
lowing are to be accomplished:

tive personnel. There is no specific
time alloted for this.
Another group which proposes
the establishment of a world col-
lege is the Committee on a Friends
College of the Religious Society of
Friends.
Two Aims
I
A Friends World College would
have two related aims. First, that
the college be and remain Quaker
in spirit, character and outlook,
with a meeting for worship as its
spiritual center. Secondly, that it
be a world college, international in
spirit, character and outlooks. Its
faculty and student body would
consist of people of all faiths,
races and nationalities.
The college campus would be
located near New York City and
the United Nations. A Quaker and
international representatives will
comprise the administration. The
Board of Trustees will be Friends
chosen at the. yearly New York
meeting.
The curriculum will have a
strong international emphasis,
with specific stress on the variety
of cultures, languages, history and
the national-international aspira-
tions which characterize the coun-
tries of the world.
Relations Among People
Classes will be given to the study
of social processes involved in the
relations among peoples and na-
tions, with attention on peaceful
methods for settling differences.
The International Society for
the Establishment of a' World
University was founded in Zurich
in 1953. It suggests the establish-
ment of a World University to be
independent of individual nations,
with no discrimination as to faith,
race, political creed or social posi-
tion.
They have already begun their
program by organizing interna-
tional seminars which took place
during July-September 1960 and
1961. They hope to continue with
a small program and gradually
build it up. Eventually the univer-
sity will accommodate 1,000 stu-
dents, with the curricula mainly
in the liberal arts field.
One group with plans to insti-
tute an international university
which would function as a unit of
the United Nations is the Federa-
tion of American Scientists Com-
mittee for a United Nations Uni-
versity.
The suggest the founding of a
large university (from 1000 to
10000 students) which would be on
a graduate level. Equal significance
would be placed on teaching and
research. The student body would
be chosen to represent the entire
world.
Several groups and persons have
considered the feasibility of a
United Nations University. For
most of them, their efforts did not
extend beyond the research stage.
According to William H. Welling
of the Department of Education,
of the United States Economic and
Social Council, as of July, 1959,
proposals for an international uni-
versity were received from the fol-
lowing: World University Alliance,
the American Friends' Service
Committee, Charles University in
Piague and the Newark College of
Engineering.

"It's tough, if you've never suf-
fered from any kind of discrimi-
nation in your life, not to believe
that anyone can become success-
ful on his own merits," Mrs. Su-
zanne Meyer told the Lutheran
Students' Association Sunday.

Office of Student Affairs to work
with the student Human Relations
ground of local discrimination in
off-campus housing.
She said that the small number
of Negroes attending the Univer-
sity generally tend to live in the
Negro section of Ann Arbor.
Cites Example
"The situation hasn't been con-
ducive to their reaching out into
the total community," Mrs. Meyer
commented.
She cited the case of a profes-
sional person with a graduate de-
gree who lived in an apartment
for six weeks, and then discovered
that her neighbors had assumed
she was a maid. When they discov-
ered that she was a tenant, they
pressured the landlord and she was
forced to move out, Mrs. Meyer
said.
"Ann Arbor is a homogenous
town, an intellectual and cultural
center. It should be relatively easy
to end discrimination here," Mrs.
Meyer concluded.

MRS. SUZANNE MEYER
discusses bias
Board in implementing the Re-
gents' anti-discrimination Bylaw1
2:14, discussed the problem of seg-
regation in off-campus housing.
She said that students often
don't consider discrimination an
important problem unless it hits
them directly.
Support Landlord
''ow many of you are willing
to back up a landlord who will
rent to Negroes, by living there
yourselves rather than moving
out?" she asked.
Mrs. Meyer saw similar situa-
tions arising after graduation.
"College is the time when students
are free to think through these
problems. We hope that when you
leave here you will be dependable
and will help to keep your neigh-
borhood stable when Negroes move
in," she said.
In such a situation, people
should at least refuse to be panick-
ed into moving out, and, prefer-
ably, should take the initiative
and extend a welcome to the new
neighbors, she continued.
Neighborhood Blight
"It isn't the Negroes moving in
that wrecks a neighborhood, it's
the whites moving out," Mrs. Mey-
er added.
