Controversy Surrounds IQC
SIGN OF DISPLEASURE-As governing body of all men's resi-
dence halls at the University, Inter-Quadrangle Council encoun-
to table tennis and chess, compete
with squads from other houses.
The social chairman arranges
social events with women's dormi-
tory houses, including mixers, ex-
change dinners and picnics.
An academic chairman possesses
files of former final examinations
for the residents to peruse.
The housemother, resident di-
rector and hall counselors usually
work closely with the house gov-
ernment in its programs.
Quadrangle Council
At the next level is the quad-
rangle council, composed of each
house president, a representative
especially elected by each house
to serve on the quad council, and
quad officers.
The quad council carries on
functions similar to those at the
house level, but on a broader
scale.
Each of the three councils, for
instance, helps to furnish and op-
erate a quadrangle library, from
which residents may borrow rec-
ords as well as books.
Sponsors Dance
Each quadrangle also sponsors
its own Christmas dance, and at-
tempts to provide weekly, first-
class movies for a 25 cent fee.
Most important of all, however,
the quad council holds exclusive
authority for determining dress
regulations for meals.
As well as coordinating all these
actiivties, IQC carries on unobtru-
sive service projects of its own.
Annual Sing
It co-sponsors the annual IQC-
Assembly Association Sing, and a
concert (last year featuring Duke,
Ellington) and provides summer
storage for returning students. An
international chairman attempts
to help foreign students and
Americans become better ac-
quainted.
IQC itself is composed of the
quad presidents, another represen-
tative from each quad, and. the
officers: a president, vice-president
and secretary-treasurer. Its con-
stitution may be changed only by
consent of two-thirds of the house
councils, but its authority super-
sedes both quad and house gov-
ernment.
Maintains Judiciary
Judiciary functions are handled
on three levels. House, quad-
rangle and IQC Judic, working
closely with staffmen, serve as the
disciplinary body within their own
jurisdictions.
The chairman of IQC Judic, one
of the few campus judiciaries to
make provisions for public hear-
ings at the request of the defend-
ant, sits on the council. The most
common infractions are violations
of quiet hours and the University
rule banning liquor within the
residence units.

Although Inter - Quadrangle
Council officers often bemoan what
they feel is a lack of interest and
knowledge by quadrangle residents
of the council's goals and activi-
ties, at least several times during
tthe past year campus attention
did turn to IQC.
Undoubtedly the most contro-
versial matter was the so-called
"women- in-the -quads" proposal,
which would have liberalized wom-
en's visiting hours and allowed the
visits to take place behind closed
doors in the rooms, instead of the
traditional mandatory open-door
policy.
Because of unfavorable reaction
from Michigan citizens and metro-
-politan newspapers, and for fears
that such a liberalization would
tend to decrease academic influ-
ences within the halls, the motion
was soundly turned down by the
Residence Halls Board or Gover-
nOrs.
Examines Problems
In its function as the represen-,
tative body for the more than
3,000 men in residence units, IQC
also held a student-faculty-ad-
ministration conference to ex-
amine quad problems, attempted,
issues, including complaints re-
often resulted in comments like
although unsuccessfully, to amend
its constitution for structural
changes in the body, and gave
strong support for the start of
coeducational housing next fall.
IQC also continued its tradi-
tional role of overseeing student
government problems within East,
South and West Quadrangles and
acting as a liaison between stu-
dents and staffmen.
The IQC president this year is
Robert Geary, '63E. His chief aim
is "to improve communications"
between the council and residents
(most of them are freshmen due
in the quads) so that IQC's pro-
grams will become more meaning-
ful ;and help to improve quad-
rangle life.
Top of Structure
IQC sits at the top of the pyra-
midical residence hall government
structure.
At the bottom, structurally
speaking, are the house councils,
usually composed of house officers
and a representative from each
corridor.
House governments' main tasks
are to provide social and athletic
programs for the members. House
teams in a wide variety of sports,
from touch football and basketball

The expressed interest of the
Sailing Club is to further the sport
among the students and faculty at
the University of Michigan.
Membership is open to anyone
who would like to join; the only
requirement being that the mem-
ber must be able to swim, for safe-
ty's sake. Weekly meetings are
held Thursday evenings at 7:45
p.m. in 325 West Engineering Bldg.
The club offers instruction in
sailing to those members who de-
sire it.
Operate Facilities
The members do their sailing at
Base Lake where the club has fa-
cilities on land which is owned by
the University of Michigan. The
facilities include a boathouse,
dock, and running water.
The sailing fleet, owned by the
club, includes nine jet-14 class
boats and one tech dinghy. In ad-
dition there is one large boat with
an outboard motor, which is used
to assist sailboats in trouble and
to supervise racing. Also, the club
has a swimming raft and an out-
door barbeque grill for the use of
the members.
The University Sailing team is
sponsored- by the club. It com-
petes in intercollegiate-regattas
weekly, during the spring and fall
sailing seasons. This year they
qualified for the nationals, which
were held in Los Angeles.
Sponsors Regatta
Twice a year, in the spring and
fall, the club sponsors its home
regatta which finds teams from
as far away as the East Coast
competing at Base Lake.
In addition to the intercollegiate
racing, the club has intra-club
races each Sunday morning. Each
semester, the best sailors in the
club who are not members of the
sailing team compete for the hon-
or of being the best of skill in the
club.
At all times other than Sunday
morning, many members can use
the club boats for pleasure sailing.
Some members even bring their
own boats to use at the club.
Provide Rides
The club has a unique system
of providing rides to the lake for
its members. Those members who
have cars, sign up at the meeting
indicating when they will be driv-
ing to the lake, they then meet
whoever wants to go at the North
door of the Michigan Union.
On holidays and summer Sun-
days there are semi-organized pic-
nics.
Especially inspiring is the eve-
ning sailing on warm summer eve-
nings.

* THE AVERAGE FRESHMAN GIRL walks to the campus 6 times each day. To
and from, before and after lunch, and to the Library after dinner. This is a total
of over 5 miles, carrying books. Walking time for this is 1 hour and 40 minutes,
bike time is only 20 to 30 minutes. Girls, think of the coffee dates that you can
have in the hour that you save riding a bike from Beaver's. Think of the late min-
utes that you can duck by riding your bike back in the nick of time. Think of the
sore muscles that you can avoid by not carrying your books. What you need is a
bike! 7000 Michigan students can't be wrong.
