EIGHWT T HE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1961 Professors Select Own Textbooks BI-LATERAL: Singer Comments On World Conflict Conference Views Aims Of Education (Continued from Page 1) (Continued from Page 1) Selection of texts for physics courses is made on an individual basis. Advanced courses make little use of texts since books on these sub- jects rapidly become obsolete and instructors present material dif- ferently. More emphasis is placed on texts in lower level courses. In many areas of physics a three or four year old text is outdated. However, elementary texts may be used for five or six years, Prof. Noah Sherman of the department said. In the History Department, Prof. John Bowditch, chairman, said that in American history and European history. a committee made up of the lecturers and in- structors usually shapes the course and then try to find a text to fit it. The book must be sophisticat- ed and up-to-date in interpreta- tion. The instructors have a "social conscienceness" about keeping the book for more than one year so students can buy used books, he said. "If there is a choice be- tween a paperback and a hard cover book, usually they pick the paperback," Prof. Bowditch add- ed In sociology, the department uses a text written at the Uni- versity specifically for the intro- ductory course. Although each lec- turer has the choice of materials, there is an informal pressure to use the department text, Prof. Gerhard E. Lenski, who is in Charge of the introductory course, said. In philosophy courses and many of the English courses actual text- books are not empl6yed. Primary sources are used, but the instruc- tors are free to choose independ- ently the particular work and edi- tions which they prefer. The education school uses sim- ilar methods in text selection. Faculty members have complete freedom of text selection but must submit course outlines to the dean, Prof. Charles F. Lehmann, assist- ant dean, said. ORGANIZATION' NOTICES 9 By SANDRA SANDELL v "One of the least useful ways to view the present international conflict is to consider it a bi-lat- eral relationship," Prof. J. David Singer of the Mental Health Re- search Center said Wednesday. Speaking at a study group on international conflict of the Wom- en's International League for Peace and Freedom, Prof. Singer said there are actually a multi- tude of actors on either side. For discussion purposes, one might consider that there are three di- visions on each side: the peace faction, the war faction and the policy makers.- Prof. Singer compared Kenne- dy and Khrushchev to "animated litmus paper." They merely dem- onstrated the effects of the in- fluences and pressures brought to bear on them by these groups, he said. Peace Movement When the movement for peace and disarmament on one side is increased, Prof. Singer explained, those on the other side who fa- vor arms build-ups often inter- pret it as a sign of weakness and may decide to bring forth pres- sure against the opponent. Prof. Singer also presented an analogy to the present interna- tional arms race which he called the "prisoners' dilemma." Two men rob a store together. They are apprehended and placed in separate cells. The district attorney tells them that he has enough evidence to send both of them to prison for five years. However, he explains that if one will confess, he will go free, whereas the other will re- ceive a ten-year sentence. Tests Show Psychological tests have shown that most frequently each, fear- ing the other, will confess. Similarly, it is rational for the United States and the Soviet Un- ion to hold armaments at present levels and not to attack. How- ever, one, fearing an attack from the other, may strike first. Because of the time necessary to mobilize the population into fallout shelters, Prof. Singer said, shelters would be of greater ad- vantage to an attacking nation. The United States, 'he continued, would have about eight minutes after a warning to respond to a surprise attack, but about fifty minutes for a retaliatory attack. stance, some types of research re- quire professors to take leaves of absences and therefore they are not available to teach for a semes- ter or two. It was also pointed out that the University should never allow itself to be in the position where faculty are pressured to get grants for re- search either to supplement their income or to help them in their professional status. The group did not come to any conclusion as to whether gen- eralized or specialized education should be the objective of the University. ' Too Much Specialization Many of the discussants felt that the University was aiming too much toward specialization. As this type of education increases there is more demand for gener- alization and integration of the material learned, one member emphasized. There was a suggestion that the University should provide more interdisciplinary courses. The group was generally in favor of this but not to the extreme that the University of Chicago or St. Johns College carried out this plan. Jn their situation too many graduates did not have enough specific knowledge and this hurt their chances of getting into grad- uate schools. Emphasize Learning It was also agreed that the Uni- versity should emphasize learning outside of the classrooms. Any supplementary activities, such as culture or extra curricu- lar, are important to the overall education of the student. The Housing system has failed in this area because students aren't learning as much as they could from other students, one member noted.

"This is an extremely dangerous situation, because it can lead to the undersirable consequence that 'professional students' who speak either for themselves or for some nonstudent power get in positions of leadership." Unless such student responsi- bility is based on a long tradition of student participation and pre- dicated on a solid structure, Davis saw the possibilities of successful Communist inflitration. Prof. Thomas S. Harris, chair- man of the military science de- partment, said student organiza- tions must have a veto over re- sponsibility changes, "just as we havesa veto in all democratic structures. There must be some stop to the matter of freedom." Training Programs Orientation Director E. Jack Petoskey said responsibility must be inculcated in the student through the training programs of campus organizations. Attacking Petoskey's thesis, Challenge Co-ordinator Ralph Kaplan, '63, claimed, "On the one hand the administration tells stu- dents that they must act like adults before they will be given more power. On the other hand, it has not provided a structure in which students can become re- sponsibly self-governing." Daily City Editor Philip Sher- man, '62, traced a circle of respon- sibility and responsibilities. "You can't be responsible without hav- ing responsibilities, but you won't be given responsibilities without being responsible." Equal Authority Besides gaining equal authority for all, the process of self -govern- ment is a valuable one in itself, Ross said. Because the process is not widely developed here, the University is not pouring forth democrats into the body politic," he charged. "The nature of democracy is that alternatives be there and a man can choose to be free or un- free. Jon Carlson, '63, chairman of the Union's international affairs committee, said individual stu- dents 'should prepare for life in a democracy by working through organizations while on campus. "It is the interplay of profes- sional organizations that gets things done on the national scene. The large population in the United States and in the University pre- vent meaningful individual action outside a group." Ross challenged Carlson's re- marks, claiming that the large organizations are themselves"mass societies" whose activities are run by an elite and watched by the general membership. Campus Rules During the second half of the session, Union President Paul Carder,''62, who chaired the group, turned the discussion towards the problem- of rules and regulations on the campus, and who should set them. SGC member Brian Glick, '62, cited a division between two types of regulations. There is a legiti- mate one of protecting property and the rights of others, he said, and one designed for the person's own good, even when his actions do not harm anyone else. "We shouldn't pass laws because we think it would be better for a person's welfare if he acted in a certain way." Carder saw a distinction between the substance of the rules and the agents which have power to set them. He said students complain both about the nature of the reg- ulations and the fact that they have little power in formulating them. meet its needs is to create an at- mosphere in which knowledge can grow and enlarge itself as it goes along, he said. Referring specifically to the Uni- versity, President Hatcher said "in all our society we will have here assembled the finest, representing the forefront of knowledge and education, and we hope to supply to them facilities adequate to their needs."

Hoff, a printer-compositor for the Ann Arbor News, said yesterday he will seek the fifth ward city council seat currently held by Republican John R. Laird. 1 1 1 z +,. ' i T e y" T ° } ...
