THE MICHIGAN DAILY ILLEGE ROUNDUP: Indiana Passes Discount Bill NO HOURS FOR SENIORS: Judiciary Recommends Women's Rules Changes *J- I By RONALD WILTON BLOOMINGTON--The Student Senate of the University of Indi- ana has created a University Stu- dent Discount Commission. The bill creating the commission provides for student discount cards to be sold to students at a cost of 35 cents a semester or 50 cents a year, with the money going to student government. The bill allots three per cent of the money to the bureau's commis- sioner as a scholarship and two and a halfper cent to each of two deputy commissioners. Local businessmen would sign contracts with the student govern- ment committing them to give dis- counts on various items to all card holders. Objectors to the commission had complained about the cost both to: the student government and the student body. They also objected to the idea of discount cards, say- ing that the business should give discounts tohall students with iden- tification cards. EVANSTON-A motion to let students decide if they want to be taxed 25 cents apiece per year to finance Senate activities has been passed by the Student Senate of Northwestern University. The motion will be voted on at the spring elections May 2. If the tax is approved, the Senate will be required to adopt an amend- ment enabling it to levy taxes. If the vote is negative, it will be considered binding for the term of the Senate in office at the time. The president of the Senate ex- plained the need for the tax by noting that the Senate's present income is inadequate to cover Na- tional Student Association ex- penses, various student confer- ences and other programs. * * * rNEW YORK CITY-The Stu- dent Governing Board of New York University has set up a So- cial Affairs Committee which will have final authority in coordinat- ing all campus social activities. Final approval for the commit- tee has to come from the Commit- tee on Student Activities. If this Council To Begin Hearings )n Sim N1u B ias Clause (Continued from Page 1) violation and gave it until Sep- tember, 1958, to resolve the viola- tion. In November, 1958, SGC recom- mended withdrawal of recognition effective June, 1959. However a stay of action was put on the Council by a call of the Board in Review and was not lifted. Appeals to Regents SGC appealed to the Board of Regents, but the decision of the Board in Review was not rescinded. The Sigma Kappa case high- lighted the need for a broader pro- vision concerning discrimination in student organizations, and two such statements were passed soon after. In 1959 whether spurred by the Sigma Kappa case or simply a general feeling that a stand was needed, the Regents passed Bylaw 2.14: Bylaw Provisions "The University shall not dis- criminate against any person be- cause of race, color, religion, creed, national origin, or ancestry. Fur- ther, it shall work for the elimi- nation of discrimination in private organizations recognized by the University and from non-Univer- sity sourcesnwhere students and the employes of the University are involved." In 1960 SGC passed a ruling that "All recognized student or- ganizations shall select member- ship and afford opportunities to members on the basis of personal merit, and not race, color, religion, Meizian To Speak To Design Group Harley Melzian, co-founder of W. B. Ford Design Associates, Inc., in Detroit, will address the Affill- ate Student Group of the Michi- gan Chapter of the American In- stitute of Interior Design at 1:30 p.m. today in Rm. 346 of the Ar- chitecture Bldg. Melzian's talk will take the form of an illustrated lecture detailing the relationship of interior design to architecture. creed, national origin or ancestry." And at the same time SGC estab- lished the Committee on Member- ship in Student Organizations which has the power to investigate charges of violation of the regula- tion, and to initiate its own in- vestigations. It can then make recommendations of corrective and/or disciplinary action to the Council, which has final authority. Asks for Statements In December of 1960 the Council passed a motion requiring sub- mission of membership statements and interpretation of the groups' ability to comply with the regula- tion. Last semester a deadline for sub- mission of statements was set. Later, in order to insure adequacy, former SGC President Richard Nohl, '62BAd, examined statements for completeness and groups -are being notified of inadequacies in their statements, which must be corrected. Sigma Nu is the first case to be brought before SGC by the Com- mittee on Membership. The Com- mittee has asked that Sigma Nu be given until the end of the semester to comply with the regulation. Group Asks Waiver The group has requested a waiver from its, national, but ac- cording to the national's policy it must be in clear danger of having its recognition withdrawn before such a provision can be set up. The case today will be heard against a backlog of concern over discrimination, but although the University and SGC both have policies which staunchly prohibit discrimination there are also sev- eral positions on how such matters shall be implemented. There is the philosophy of "good faith" and concern with each indi- vidual case, over and above any possible precedents in one direc- tion or the other; and there are strong feelings both for the "hard" and "soft" line. Tonight the Council will begin its fact-finding, which will eventu- ally lead into the executive session consideration of possible action. The outcome will be a part of the long line of events that have taken place in the past. is given the new committee would be made up of all important cam- pus student leaders. As one of its first functions the committee will compile a campus activities calendar this spring. At present this job is being handled by a Public Relations Committee. * * * PHILADELPHIA-The Faculty Senate of the University of Penn- sylvania is debating a proposal to enroll all undergraduates in a sin- gle college with a common curric- ulum. The proposal came up during a discussion on "the long-range goals" of the University. Debate was also raised as to how much professional or vocational preparation should be included in the undergraduate program. Po- sitions of faculty members varied from zero to 33 per cent. * *-* BERKELEY-While not backing a specific plan, the executive com- mittee of the student government at the University of California has voted to "express its positive in- terest" in the honor system idea. It also encouraged students and student organizations "to study the various types of honor codes on other university campuses." Members of the executive com- mittee agreed that further discus- sion of the idea was needed before they could present a detailed rec- ommendation to the faculty and administration. At present the Student Committee on Education- al Policy and a student-faculty committee are both preparing re- ports on honor systems. BOULDER-The regents of the University of Colorado have decid- ed on an eight and one half per cent increase in the tuition levels of residentand non-resident stu- dents. The increases will amount to $18 for state residents and $69 for non-residents to bring tuition to- tals to $280 and $904 respectively. The raises will go into effect this fall. The raise is the fourth in four years voted by the regents. Harris Notes Court'.s Role In Bias Issues (Continued from Page 1) "But I doubt, except for flagrant violations of due process like this, that a court would require rein- statement," Prof. Harris. adds that a could probably would uphold the right of the Regents-acting through SGC-to impose these sanctions on an organization. "I don't think there can be much doubt as to their power to withdraw recognition to imple- ment appropriate policies-and I think a non-discrimination policy is one the courts would approve." Prof. Harris adds that a court fair amount of confusion" between two different questions concerning discrimination in University or- ganizations. The first question, he explains, is whether the Regents have the authority to enforce non-discrimi- nation. The second issue is, does the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution require withdrawal of discriminating or- ganizations, whether or not the Regents choose to take action? He says that, while the answer to the second question is still un- certain, the first question is the pertinent one in the present situ- ation, and the two issues should not be confused with each other. Prof. Harris points out his views on the legal aspects of the dis- crimination issue are "only guesses; since no cases of this pre- cise type have arisen before." "However, if the Regents, and their delegate, SGC, assure pro- cedural fairness to the affected fraternity, I have no real fears that the courts will overturn the Regents' action," he concludes. Views Music 'Evolution' By MICHAEL ZWEIG "In art there can be no progress in a scientific sense, but only evo- lution," Philipp Jarnach, German conductor and composer, said in a talk and panel discussion yester- day. No new composition detracts from the beauty or significance of any previous work but only adds to the wealth of expression in the media. The evolution comes with new techniques, he explained. Discussing the atonal music of Schoenberg, Stravinsky and other composers, Jarnach commented that this is not really "new music." "Atonality is a new structure of chords, but does not violate or dis- pel the everlasting principles of musical form, which are repetition, variation and contrast," he ex- plained. Evolutionary Process Jarnach pointed out that the appearance of atonality was not at all sudden, but an evolutionary process in techniques. He spoke of the influence of Moussorgsky on Debussy's new perspective on har- mony. Further experimentation led to the first atonal work, "Electra," by Richard Strauss. The first formalization of the rules of atonality was set by Schoenberg, a German composer, and found expression in "Erwar- tung" written in 1912, Jarnach continued. Stravinsky also relied upon atonality in "Sacre du Prin- temps," he added. Jarnach explained that Schoen- berg formalized the serial system, or order of notes No Traditional Tonality "A return to traditional tonality seems unthinkable," Jarnach said. "We might see a rise in semi-tonal music such as Bartok wrote. Ser- ial music seems now to be at a dead end. It has failed to produce anything great after Schoenberg." "A composer will write to ex- press himself to other human be- ings, to convey an idea or feeling, and the only music which can do that is the kind which remains in- telligible according to the laws of accoustics and the physiology of hearing," explained Jarnach in discussing the age old "why and how of art." PHILIPP JARNACH .. atonal evolution (Continued from Page 1) r. v matic apartment permission for senior women. The council feels that if a woman is responsible enough to be allowed apartment living, she should not have the limitation of hours as in a dormi- tory. It is also hoped that the elimination of hours will induce a number of women who would leave their halls for apartment living to remain. The report asks that the 11 p.m. closing hour for freshmen women be eliminated and that a "uniform closing hour, 12:00 midnight, Sun- day through Thursday, be insti- tuted. The council feels that this re- quest is justified, "since the Uni- versity libraries are open until midnight, and it would be to the women's academic advantage. (And since) the freshman woman is mature enough to accept the re- sponsibility of . . . this one hour." After careful deliberation, coun- cil recommended that "guests be allowed to stay in women's resi- dences while classes are not in session and between finals and registration." Currently, only one or two dormitories are kept open during mid-semesters, and this causes problems for foreign stu- dents or students for whom travel is impossible. Council also asked that male (and female) guests "be allowed to enter a woman's room on Sunday, 2-5 p.m." since it is during that time parents are most frequently visiting the University, and since the privilege is already extended to "many of the smaller living units." Although a majority of the houses included in the survey ex- pressed the desire and "need" to retain a sign-out system, it was recognized that a revision in the system is necessary. The council advised that in or- der "to make the present sign-out system more effective," the fol- lowing suggestions be studied: "1) More stringent enforcement of the regulation. "2) Requirement of more detail- ed information (as to where wom- en) go. "3) Requirement of compulsory sign-outs with no penalty for (not signing in or out). 1'4) More convenient means of implementation, i.e., buddy sys- tem, timeclock, corridor lists, per- sonal card file . .." The change in the late-minute makeup system was submitted by a committee from Betsy -Barbour, and asks that no penalty be ad- ministered until 11 late minutes are accumulated. At this point, the woman must makeup 90 minutes on a Friday or Saturday night. The Barbour committee report stated that this will spare women who are only one minute late, due to circumstances beyond their control, the necessity of making up time. Also recommended by Women's Judic was a revision in policy so that overnight (visiting) permis- sion in Ann Arbor be granted to upperclass women when the hos- tess is 25 or under. The present policy states that the hostess must be 25 years or more and married or a relative. In defining the roles of resident directors and house governments, the report states that there is a large area where the duties of the director and the government over- lap. The recommendation states that the resident director should exist in an advisory position-to aid the women with social or academic problems, but she should not in- terfere with house government or the policies which Judiciary Coun- cil set aside as the responsibility of the house government. Such responsibilities would in- clude internal house policy which effects the welfaresof residents in the house, such as guest calling hours; open-open houses (Assem- bly Dormitory Council now sets the policy for all dormitories) ; dress regulations; sit-down meal Legulations; implementation of the sign-out system; and parents vis- iting rooms. Any changes made by house government would have to be sub- mitted to the resident director, whose opinions "shall be given ex- tensive consideration," and any new policy "shall be passed by a two-thirds majority vote of the entire resident membership."
