Groups Elicit Student Concern JOIN CO-OPSi By HELENE SCHIFF Students at the University who wish to express their views on world issues, or hear others speak, whether they be political or moral issues, have a variety of groups to choose from. All of these groups welcome students who are new to the campus. Young Democrats... The Young Democratic Club took a big part this past year in the political arena, both in nation- al and state: affairs. In their support for higher edu-- cation they sponsored a petition to the state Legislature, yielding over 1,000 signatures urging no action by the Legislature that would limit out-of-state enroll- ment at, state-supported colleges and universities. In addition, the club initiated a letter-writing cam- paign to the Legislature urging in- creased appropriations for state- supported colleges and universi- ties in Michigan. Along with other Michigan Young Democratic Clubs, the Uni- versity chapter participated in the 1962 Issues Conference where they discussed the arms race, the eco- nomic status of the country, the constitutional convention, and the conservative movement. A rally for the abolition of the House Committee on Tn-Ameri- can Activities was sponsored by the Young Democrats with ad- dresses by several professors. Young Republicans ... In the past non-election year, the Young Republican Club made it their goal to educate students on the various aspects of Ameri- can politics. They held a collo- quium on Labor and Economic problems, another on civil rights and a third on foreign affairs. Other activities of the club con- sisted of participation in the Mich- igan Federation of College Young Republicans state convention, a dinner with the GOP Regental candidates, and the sponsorship of a speech by Congressman Gerald Ford. Constitutional convention' -delegate Rockwell T. Gust (R- Grosse Pointe) also spoke to: the group..

In the past theynhave brought such men as Norman Thomas and Martin Glab- erman to the campus. Glaberman gave a series of lectures on Marx- ism. Michigan Center for Education in Politics.. The bi-partisan Michigan Cen- ter for Education in Politics aims at interesting college students in politics. It is affiliated with the 10 year old national organization and its membership is open to partisans and also those who have made no political commitment. Annual programs have included a "Party Leader Day," with state party leaders gathering for speech- es, party caucuses and a luncheon with the students. The Center has a senior Party Training Conference, a legislative internship program in which a stu- dent works for one intensive week as staff aide for a member of the Legislature. There were also eight internships for the constitutional convention for a two week period and summer internships for legis- lators in Michigan and Washing- ton, D.C. and for the state central committees of both parties and the state Chamber of Commerce. ACWR.. . The Association for Commitment to World Responsibility was pri- marily interested this year in help- ing to plan a United Nations Uni- versity. During this summer, sev- eral students went to Paris 1 o talk to UNESCO administrators about the possibility of putting such a university under the sponsorship of UNESCO. ACWR was also able to send several students to the Helsinki Youth Festival this summer to propagandize against the Commu- nist leaders.

Students and faculty will 'be able to write critical papers on the is- sue of the peace race. Peace Center .. The University Community Peace Center has set as its goal to do the work necessary in this com- munity to advance the ideas and attitudes essential to peace. They also try to stimulate other orga- nizations to do peace projects for this end. During the past year the center had several displays in conjunctioi4 with other organizations such as the Young Democrats and the Guild House. The basic concern of the group is "peace and freedom" and they believe that support for this ob- jective must be built first on the personal level and then on the community and national levels. There is no formal membership in the Peace Center. Anyone may join who agrees with the "common direction." In the coming school year, the Center in conjunction with Voice Political Party will present facul- ty speakers, films, and discussion groups to the various living units. These programs will all be con- cerned with peace education. They will also continue their aft- ernoon displays on the Diag and in the Fishbowl. Challenge ... The Challenge group at the Uni- versity was established as an all student effort to present a unified and comprehensive analysis of cur- rent problems through talks by distinguished men. During the past spring semester the topic for discussion was cen- tered around the Challenge of Higher Education. Lecture-discussions were held on Sunday afternoons and the pro- grams also involved panel discus- sions featuring personalities from outside the University and often University faculty members. Week- day seminars were also held in residence halls and libraries. Some of the topics covered this. past semester were, Educational Philosophy in a Democracy, The University as a Community, Pub- lic Universities and the Society, the Student Citizen, Issues in Higher Education and The Future of the University of Michigan. Beginning this fall, Challenge will be co-sponsored by the Michi- gan Union. A five-man committee, including two Union officers and three Challenge spokesmen, will "exercise ultimate approval of all programs and speakers" presented to the group.

SVoice, a campus political party, was organized two years ago in an effort "to take an active and articulate part in the student gov- ernment." In supporting candidates run- ning for Student Government Council, in the fall Voice put up a slate of students and actively cam- paigned for them. Last year, Voice carried out sev- eral programs, directing its efforts toward coordination of education and action on a number of issues of relevance to the students. A few of the programs included weekly forums on the Diag, a symposium on the Arms Race, a peace rally protesting the continuation of nu- clear testing, and a debate on the abolition of the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Voice operated under three main committees. The University Coin- mittee dealt with issues such as the relationship within a univer- sity between students, faculty and administration; the rights of stu- dents, discrimination in housing, employment, services, the lecture committee, the planned reorgani- zation of the Office of Student Affairs; and problems internation- al students face on campus. Issues such as the Peace Corps and disarmament were handled by the International Affairs Commit- tee. The National Affairs Committee treated problems such as HUAC, civil rights and civil liberties. YAF ... The Young Americans for Free- dom on this campus is part of a national conservative youth orga- nization for college and young pro- fessional people. The primary and immediate task of YAF is to enlist members from every campus and from every community. The programs for each local chapter are developed under local conditions, toward achieve- ment of local Conservative objec- tives. During the year YAF partici- pated in a debate on the HUAC taking the side of not abolishing the committee. The group also is- sued a statement on nuclear war and testing favoring the resump- tion of testing. They also sponsor- ed a trip to Detroit to hear Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz) speak. Democratic Socialists... The Democratic Socialist Club took part in several national issues durin gthe past year. The club sponsored the showing of "Operation Correction," which drew a standing room crowd.
