Bacon Resigns Dean's Position (Continued from Page 1) man Relations Board originated last spring's protests with a doc- ument' they submitted to Lewis and a faculty committee.: The faculty Student Relations Committee then followed with a report to Lewis advocating sweep- ing changes in his office.

Issue Statement Members of the original stu- dent group still on campus met again last night and issued this statement: "It is encouraging that the dynamic qualities which Miss Bacon possesses are being trans- ferred to a position where they can be used to advantage. "We hope that those students and faculty members for whom the central issue was the pa- ternalistic orientation of thet Dean of Women's Office will, now focus their attention on the broader aspects of the problem. Not Personalities "For we are not, and never have been, primarily concerned with personalities. We are most concerned that the University re-evaluate the role which the Office of Student Affairs should play in the lives of the student body." Other aspects of OSA are un- der study presently by a commit- tee appointed during the summer by Lewis to investigate the office's structure. This committee, chaired by Prof. John Reed of the Law School; consists of faculty, staff' and administration members in addition to four student members from SGC. Following are the full texts of statements issued yesterday by University President Harlan Hatcher and Dean of Women Deborah Bacon, after the Regents accepted. Miss Bacon's resignation as dean of women. President Hatcher said: "It is with reluctance that I announce acceptance by the Regents of the resignation of Miss Deborah Bacon as dean of women, effective at the end of the present semester. At her request, she will continue as a faculty member within the University. "Since the fall of 1950, Miss Bacon has carried an ever increasing burden of responsibility. During this period, enroll- ment of women has increased from 5,039 to this fall's total of 8,203. "During the past two or three years, Miss Bacon has talked on several occasions with Vice-President for Student Affairs James A. Lewis regarding her desire to transfer from adminis- trative responsibilities to=teaching. It now seems necessary to comply with her wishes and accept her resignation as dean of women. "I can fully understand the strong appeal which the pros- pect of teaching has for Miss Bacon. Her own scholarship; her ability to speak and teach, and her interest in the intellectual growth of students make it easier to accept the loss of her administrative services to gain a teacher." Miss Bacon said: "I have served for 11 years in a thrilling, exciting and satisfying experience at the University. Administering to the needs of women in this great institution is a most challenging task. The burden, however, grows heavier year by year, especially inasmuch as I personally am not in tune with some of the changes which seem inevitable in the years ahead. For these reasons, after giving much thought to the matter, I am requesting a change in assignment. "I 'am genuinely enthusiastic to begin the career of Uni- versity teaching I prepared for at Columbia University. While good students and good books meet in Ann Arbdr, I would like to continue to serve this great University in my capacity as a faculty member." 11 ISA To Sponsor 'Mixer at WAB, International Students Associa. tion will sponsor a mixer from 8:30 p.m. ,to 12 tonight in the Women's Athletic Bldg.
