ly formed University Committee
on Standards and Conduct," Har-
ry Youtt, '64, Joint Judiciary

three faculty members and two
students, replaces the University
Senate Subcommittee on Disci-
pline, which was manned solely,
by three faculty members.

SchosPlan
Pollutio-n Lab
Construction
By LEONARD PRATT
Prof. David C. Chandler of the
zoology department yesterday re-
ported "important 'progress~ in
plans to obtain a water pollution
laboratory for the University.
Prof. Chandler is chairman of
an advisory committee for the
Midwest Water' Pollution Research
Facility. The committee, has been
formed within the Committee on
Institutional Cooperation, a joint
committee of universities includ-
ing the Big Ten universities and
the University of Chicago.
At a meeting Monday, the mem-
bers of the advisory committee
unanimously expressed the "of fi-
cial interest" of their schools in
cooperating with a pollution' lab-
oratory to be constructed on North
Campus. The laboratory would be
financed' by the, United. States
Public Health Service.
Under the Public Health Serv-
ice, the laboratory "will serve a 13
state area. Prof. Chandler indicat-
ed that the facility would serve
the University since, it would pro-
vide equipment for graduate study
and faculty research.
The North Campus building,
now being planned by University
staff 'members,/ is tentatively
scheduled for completion in Sep-
tember, 1965. Prof., Chandler said
that he expects the program to be
in full operation by that time.
The staff of the laboratory will
cooperate in research and train-
ing.
Outside the jurisdiction of the
Public Health Service, the mem-
bers of the. advisory committee
fully approved the creation of a
CIC -backed program of. seminars
and public affairs programs on the
subject of water pollution. Prof.
Chandler said that he expects the
seminar program to be in opera-
tion within six months.

"Previously, Joint Judiciary
Council heard a student's case and
made its decision. The subcom-
mittee acted as a faculty hearing
board. It received transcripts of
the case containing the facts con-
cerning the student.
Faculty Decision
"The faculty members carefully
reviewed how the JJC made its
decision. It was then up to the
subcommittee to confirm this deci-
sion," said Prof. B. James George,
Jr., former chairman of the sub-
committee.
The new Standards and Con-
duct Committee, established in
July, serves as a final appeals
board for all penalties invoked by
judicial bodies within its jurisdic-
tion.
"If a student living in a dormi-
tory is dissatisfied with the deci-
sion of the . dormitory judiciary
board, he may appeal his case to
JJC. From there, his case may go
to the Appeals Committee on
Standards and Conduct," Youtt
pointE caout.
Accepts All Cases
However, while the former board
made it necessary for a student
to have his case reviewed at all

JAMES A. LEWIS
... approves decisions

these levels, the present committee
will accept cases from any of
them.
"Many times JJC will waive a
case, or refuse to review it. The
appeal will then be directed im-
mediately to the new committee,"
Youtt explained.
The committee can vote to sus-
pend a student, while JJC can
only recommend that a student be
suspended. All decisions are final
after being approved by Vice-Pres-
ident for Student Affairs James A.
Lewis.
The committee also aids in
training new members of the judi-
cial structure, and advises Lewis
on changes, in rules and regula-
tions. "As of now, it is a paper
committee. with a new constitu-
tion t-) draw up. and new members
to enlist. In the future, we expect
it to handie between five and
ten appeals cases," Youtt said.
Petitions for students wishing to
serve on the committee are avail-
able at the Office of Student Af-
fairs in the SAB. Each candidate
will be interviewed by JJC's exec-
utive board, which will present its
slate of student candidates to Uni-
versity Presicer t Harlan Hatcher
for his o2pproval.

Monk Lists
Three Bases
Of Decision
By MILLICENT NOBLEj
Franz Steindl-Rast, who as a
monk of Mt. Savior is known as
Brother David, said yesterday
that there are three basic exper-
iences which seem necessary be-
fore a man makes the decision to
become a monk.
He spoke at a lecture sponsored
by the Office of Religious Affairs.
First, a man must face death
before he can think of being a
monk, Brother David said. He
must see life outlined against a
background of death; he must
realize that "man's finite existence
is 'open' towards the infinite, and
does not make sense without refer-
ence to that which transcends
man," he said.
Saying that these ideas refer to
monks "of all times and cultures,"
he added that monks make the
choice between hope and despair
in the face of death, accept the
challenge to live which is pre-
eminent in the idea of death, and
become "radical men of hope" in
their anticipation of it. The monk
"tries to live every hour as if it
were his last," Brother David said.
'The "encounter with Christ"
which is "the decisive element of
monasticism" was the second ex-
perience which Brother David dis-
cussed. It entails the development
of faith which is defined as a per-
sonal encounter with the God-
man, "the living Christ."
The third basic experience, ac-
cording to Brother David, is the
encounter with monastic life as
one radical form of Christian life.
The monk's primary task is the
confrontation of death, and to this
end he removes himself from other
men by his adherence to the vows
of poverty, chastity, and obedi-
ence.
The Benedictine monks work "to
restore man's wholeness in holi-
ness," a goal which they find
"love's ultimate answer to the ul-
timate question of death," Broth-
er David said.'

ITALIAN BUREAUCRACY:
Stirling Sees Difficulties
Concerning Corruption

V. P. Lewis
Dean Robertson
Dean Spurr

By ALICE FIALKIN
"It is very hard to find out
about corruption, and even when
you do, you can't possibly publish
it because it is libelous," Prof.
Paul Strling of the London School
of Economics said yesterday in a
lecture on "Impartial Rules and
Personal Morality."
Prof. Stirling talked generally
about a type of bureaucracy and
more specifically about the gov-
ernment of Italy.
There are two conflicting sets
of morality, Prof. Stirling explain-
ed, one that stresses personal re-
lations such as friends, neighbors
and relatives, and another that
emphasizes efficiency and impar-
tiality. The former he called
"personal morality" and the lat-
ter "impartial rules."
'Closed Society'
The society of southern Italy,
he continued, is a "closed" one of
tightly knit, small towns ranging
in size up to 3000 people. 85 per
cent of the towns are agricultural.
"The landed class is in control
of these towns, regulating its
politics and affairs. The lower
levels of society are not given an
education," said Prof. Stirling.
He said that very often the doc-
tors, lawyers and priests, the pow-
erful elite, are members of one
family. They are subject to all the
pressures of a small town com-
munity where everyone is well
known.
"If a personal society exists, it
continues to exist under a bureau-
cracy and is subject to the wishes
of outside influences. This we call
corruption," said Prof. Stirling.
"Once it's in it stays in," he
added.
Corruption
There are three types of corrup-
tion; favoritism or the use of pow-
er in someone's behalf; bribery
or the "dishing out of benefits,
usually cash" and beculation or
the "dishing out of benefits to
oneself," Prof. Stirling said.
The Italian bureaucracy is ubi-
quitous, Prof. Stirling said, and
the bureaucrats accede to re-
quests without much hesitation.
To refuse to do a favor is con-
sidered a hostile and unwise act.
It is also held to be an indication
of having weak friends.
Inefficiency
"As a result, many capable peo-
ple do not even try to secure of-
fices while undeserving men often
are awarded them. This leads to
inefficiency and inadequacy."
Since 1950 there has been rapid
change in four areas of the gov-
ernment: vast amounts of state
resources have been channeled in-
to society, stimulating the econ-
omy and providing more jobs; a
great number of official institu-
tions have been created such as
socialized medicine and unemploy-
ment payments; there has been an
increase in transportation and

communication services accom-
panied by an improvenment in
roads, buses, and trains and suf-
frage has been reintroduced based
on three political parties with the
lower classes voting for the first
time.
"Despite these manmy changes,
there is still a corrupt bureaucracy
in control of the country. It is in
no way due to the people's being
personally dishonest but to a gov-
ernmental system incapable of
changing," Prof. Stirling said.

NEW HAVEN-The use of hal-
lucination - producing d r u g s has
spread to Yale University, caus-
ing many undergraduates to seek'
psychiatric treatment, according
to the'Yale Daily News.
Several students have suffered
borderline psychoses from the
drugs mescaline and psilocybin.
At Harvard University 1 a s t
spring, Prof. Richard Alpert was
dismissed for administering mes-
caline and psilocybin to under-_
graduates. The use of mescaline,
however, had not previously been
reported at Yale.
At Yale, the hallucinogens were
not given by a faculty member or
by anyone connected with the ad-
ministration. The students who
purchased the drugs in Mexico,
took them on their own initiative1
in an informal experiment.1
It is not known what action thet
university will take.c

SARASOTA-When New College
opens its doors to students in 1964,
with about 120 students of a
planned enrollment of 1200, "an
exciting new experiment in the
field of higher education" will
have been started, according to
John W. Gustad, dean of the new
institution.
The school expects to have a
library of more than 300,000 vol-
umes at the very outset.
Dean Gustad explained that this
initial library expenditure of $3
million is indicative of New Col-
lege's desire to establish itself as
a top undergraduate school. New

College grew out, of a discussion
among representatives of the Ford
Foundation, Carnegie Corpora-
tion and the Congregational
Church.
New College is being planned
in part after its namesake, New
College of Oxford University. The
college will be divided into houses.
Each of these houses, like Har-
vard and Yale, will be equipped
with their own libraries and will
have tutors living among the stu-
dents.
The tutorial system, also used
at Oxford, Yale and Harvard,
provides for a great deal of inde-
pendent study by the student un-
der the guidance of a tutor.
A New College student will pro-
gress at his own speed and con-
sequently there will be no grade
levels. In addition there will be
no marks at New College, nor will
there be a credit system for
courses. A student will work at
a specific subject until he reaches
"proficiency" in that field, at
which time the student may move
on to more advanced study.
