Outlook

for

the

Residential

By SUSAN COLLINS
Last spring when the faculty of the literary college was
discussing general aspects of the then new residential college
proposal, a number of faculty members were persistent in raising
various questions and making reservations about it.
Now that a year has passed and the plans for the college
have been further developed by its faculty planning committee
and students advisory committee, some of the original faculty
questioners have been sought out once more.
Although these faculty members heavily emphasize that they
support experimentation and the residential college idea in
general, a few questions and reservations do indeed seem to
hold over from last spring.
Although several of the questioners declined to comment

at this time, one direct remark was that "the residential college
general, a few questions and reservations do indeed seem to
is no solution to expansion."
Another faculty member said in reference to. both the resi-
dential college and the trimester that "this year it still seems
doubtful to start on another major scheme when we have hardly
digested this one," meaning trimester. He added that "more of
us were doubtful last year. Some of us felt we ought to do one,
see where we stood, then do the other."
Perhaps representative of, and one of the most articulate
of the questioners sought out, is Prof. John A. Dorr of the
geology department. In a recent interview, Dorr, who is in his third
year on the Senate Student Relations Subcommittee, says that
one of the main reasons for establishing a residential college
was the hope that its small size might improve the learning

College: the
experience available for the student.
However, Dorr maintains, he is not convinced that large
size and quality are incompatible; the literary college is at present
both large and good.
A second reason for establishing the residential college, Dorr
said, was that it would allow for experimentation in education.
"It is not my impression that the literary college is inhibited
from experimentation," he said. Depending on the level of financial
support, the present, large literary college could also experiment
with the smaller classes, outstanding' staff and complex facilities
proposed for the residential college, he said.

quality in the literary college is to provide more money to another
area!"
A third point of the five that Dorr spelled out was the
question of interchangeability of staff between the residential
college and the literary college. Last spring, he said, it was
proposed that the residential college faculty would teach on a
rotating basis, with the approval of the parent departments.
In other words, a member of the faculty would teach at the
residential college for perhaps one to three years and then return
to the parent literary college department.
Dorr said the problem in this proposal lies in whether the
residential college teachers could be automatically accepted back
into their respective parent departments. In all departments,

Khanh Regains
Power in Saigon
Causes Failure of Attempted Coup
By Thao, Phat, Catholic Insurgents
SAIGON W)-South Viet Nam's latest attempted coup was de-
clared officially ended last night with the capitulation of one of
its top military leaders.
At 10:45 a.m. today (Saigon time) former Brig. Gen. Lam Van
Phat announced "we have capitulated," while inside the general
staff headquarters, Col. Pham Ngor Thad, leader of the coup, made
the surrender agreement.
Five minutes earlier the personal bodyguard of Phat and Col.
Huynh Tan Ton had turned themselves over to forces loyal to Gen.
Nguyen Khanh. The last rebel holdouts inside the general staff

At their monthly public meeting
yesterday, the Regents reacted
favorably to administrative reports
on Flint expansion plans and theI

University has lately run into,

Regents that the University must
admit freshmen in Flint this fall1
-because of commitments already
made-even if the University gets
no funds for it from the Legisla-
ture.
It is a matter of "great concern
to the University that Gov. Georget
Romney's budget deleted provi-
sions in the University's request1
for 200 freshmen at Flint thisi
fall," he said.
Study and Research

Wayne State University are joint-
ly participating in administering
a federal grant. The services pro-
vided include tutoring, job train-
ing, adult education and health
care.
Some residents of the area have
charged that "misrepresentations"
and ."falsification of the facts"
have been used by federal agencies
in allegedly exaggerating the
amount of hardship in the pro-
ject vicinity.
At yesterday's meeting, Presi-
dent Hatcher said he felt many
criticisms of the project were "not
in accordance with the facts."

Regent Carl Brablec of Rose-
ville, after being assured by
Heyns that those criticizing the
project had full access to the
facts, commented that the reac-
tion of the officials in Flint ap-
proving the project "settles the
matter in my mind." Regent Pow-
er added that the Willow Village
project "is the sort of thing the
University can and should do."
The Regents made 17 faculty
appointments at their meeting.
Among these, Prof. Joseph J. Mar-
tin was named associate director
of the Institute of Science and
Technology.
The Regents also gave voice ap-
proval to the calendar for the
1965-66 academic year. A tri-
mester schedule, the calendar al-
lows three study days in both the
winter and fall terms. The spring-
summer term has no study days.
The study day proposal was ap-
proved by the faculty of the Uni-
versity last month.

Shows Loyalty
Never has any group so demon-
strated its continuing loyalty in
the wake of such inferior treat-
ment. The United States projects
the image of a democratic, pro-
gressive society yet the Negro can-
not be a first class citizen, Mrs.
King said.
"Currently, our organization,
the Southern Christian Leader-
ship Conference (SCLC) is con-
centrating on obtaining the ballot
for Negroes throughout the South.
There are an amazing number of
people actually involved in the
movement.
"SCLC is headquartered in At-
lanta but has affiliates through-
out the South, each bearing their
own name. SCLC supplies these
groups with organizational staff,
finances and drives," Mrs. King
explained.

the new dental school building in
September.
Practicing Doctors Needed
In announcing the Towsley

health education center, President
Hatcher stressed the need for
keeping Michigan's 10,000 physi-
cians and surgeons in active prac-
tice and abreast of the rapid ad-
vances in their fields.
The University's postgraduate
medical education program is one
of the largest in the country, he
said, with about 2,500 physicians
coming here each year for the 35
courses offered by the postgrad-
uate medicine department.
The center will be housed in a
new building located on the east
side of University Hospital. Dr.
Harry A. Towsley, president of the
foundation making the gift, is di-
rector of the postgraduate medi-
cine department and a member of
the pediatrics and communicable
diseases department.
The Kellogg Foundation grant
will allow expansion of the dental
school's orthodontics department
as well as remodeling and air-con-
ditioning of the Kellogg Institute.
The gift complements the an-
nouncement last year of federal
grants totaling $5.6 million for
the new dental school building.

CHALLENGE LECTURE:
Urges Discussions for Viet Nam.

By MARK KILLINGSWORTH
,We need a broader diplomatic
effort and more international dis-
cussion to help solve the Viet
Nam problem," John King Fair-
bank, professor of history and
director of the East Asia Research
center at Harvard University, said
last night.
Speaking at a Challenge lecture,
Fairbank said that "the recent
air strikes may simply have
strengthened the North Vietnam-
ese spirit. The leaders have a very
long-run view of their goals and
' believe that the people will fight
for those goals as long as there
are people around."

"Like other Western invaders,
we have power, but we've never
been insiders," he commented, re-
ferring to United States difficul-
ties in prosecuting the war.
He cautioned, "The Viet Cong
argument that they represent the
people is a questionable one-they
do if they can get away with it.
The peasantry are at least as
terrified of them as they are per-
suaded by them."
'Domino' Theory
Fairbank added, "The 'falling
domino' theory is perhaps design-
ed only for the adult American
child. The subversion that occurs
goes on in other areas all the
time." He warned that northeast

that Communist assassinations
