Heyns noted re- PROF. ROBERT B. ZAJONC ... sensory perception a one Sees Sensory Role By STEVEN LESAK The role of perception in the learning processes should be given greater consideration than it pre- viously has been, Prof. Robert B. Zajonc of the psychology depart- ment -and the Research Center for Group Dynamics said yesterday. Speaking on the "Role of Per- ception in Behavior Theory," Prof. Zajonc said he disagrees with many social psychologists who feel that perception is a necessary factor in the laws of learning. Rather, these workers feel that the learning processes can be used to understand and explain percep- tion. By citing results from the areas of sensory perception, drive stim- ulus and discrimination stimulus, Prof. Jajonc gave graphic support to his point of view on the Im- portance of perceptual considera- tions.f "Although traditional theories regard sitmulus as a constant fac- tor, experiments have shown that perceptual considerations of stim- ulus--particularly stimulus inten- sity-must assume greater im- portance in the formation of be- havior theories," Prof. Zajonc said. i He jointed out that his results are based on a limited range of stimulus intensities, citing the need for more research in areas of high intensity stimulus and for the neurological explanation of the observed results. cently that "the obligation to work together is deeply felt." Speaking at the conclusion of this year's Principal-Freshman- Counseling Conference Heyns and Assistant to the Vice-President for Business and Finance John G. Mc- Kevitt addressed a luncheon meet- ing of secondary school officials gathered from throughout the state to interviewformer students now attending the University. The University is constantly working to maintain a solid bal- ance of competent faculty and teaching methods and qualified students, Heyns said. De-Westernizing He noted that "changes in cur- riculum seem to be following a de- Westernizing pattern - the in- crease of interest in other parts of the world reflects recognition of the fact that young people are now educated for world citizen- ship." A new pattern in the relation- ship of professional schools to un- dergraduate instruction also seems to be emerging, Heyns said. "Whereas the old concept was one of education by layers, vertical in- terrelations between the graduate and undergraduate colleges are now considering the student's total education." As for the role of a university professor, Heyns hopes that duties as a disciplinarian and a source of facts will diminish so that "teachers can be restored to the human tasks of direct creative in- teraction with students, increas- ing motivation and setting stan- dards of evaluation." Outline Plans In a program of slide projec- tions, McKevitt briefly outlined some of the University's expansion plans with illustrations of new fa- cilities and sketches from the Cen- tral Campus Plan. "A major factor of future plan- ning is to keep the student in sight and to enable him to gain by the scale, character and op- portunities of his surroundings," he said. Also taken into consideration by planning officials are attempts to preserve the atmosphere of the Diag," a point of identification for both the new student and re- turning alumni," and "the unique sense of community living exper- ienced through the close ties with the city of Ann Arbor," McKevitt noted.

RELIGIOUS VOCATION: Jones Stresses Understanding of Roles By DAVID J. ROSEN "The real understanding of re- ligious vocation is a by-product of an understanding of the sense of vocation for all of life," Rev. Gordon Jones, Rector of St. An- drew's Episcopal Church, said re- cently at the Conference on Vo- cation in Religion. Acro,,ss Caims Speaking on the "Conservative Political Philosophy of Edmund Burke," Prof. J. Stanlis of the University of Detroit will deliver the keynote address for the first annual All-College Conservative Conference at 11 a.m. today in the Michigan Union. 'Thieves Carnival' . . The University Players will pre- sent Jean Anouilh's comedy "Thieves' Carnival" at 8 p.m. to- day in Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Pirandello . . The Professional Theatre Pro- gram's Association. of Producing Artists will present Pirandello's "Right You Are (If You Think You Are)" at 8:30 p.m. today in Trueblood Aud. "We must consider what there is in the religious dimension that is continuous with the rest of life, rather than what is discontinuous," he added. Speaking on "A Vocational Un- derstanding of Life," the Rev. Mr. Jones outlined three essential fac- tors for this understanding. 'Givenness' He suggested that "a vocational understanding of life becomes a reality when the givenness which exists on the outside invites and anticipates an answer from us." By "givenness," the Rev. Mr. Jones explained that he meant simply all that which has been given to man by his Creator. The Rev. Mr. Jones explained that "one of the greatest sins perpetrated begins with Descartes' idea that life begins with the awareness of self, his 'Cogito Ergo Sum.' We should change this to 'Respondero Ergo Sum': 'I answer, therefore I am'." Gratutitous Sense The Rev. Mr. Jones added that "a vocational understanding of life is based on experiences with reality which excite in us a sense of gratitude." The third essential for vocation- al understanding is that "our abil- ity to accept ourselves and the ability to be free is impossible apart from obedience which sets us free," the Rev. Mr. Jones said. He added that the essential in- tegrity of a religious vocation comes from this third principle; one who is subservient to his Creator is not a slave to himself nor to other men. (Continued from Page 1 states, the Legislature would award $147 million to higher education next year-a $37 million increase. If, the statistics report specu- lates, this state followed the pro- jected 49-state per-student aver- age for next year, the Legislature would vote it $131 million-a $21 million increase. . The $49 million necessary for capital outlay would be divided in- to a $43 million allocation to stim- ulate new construction, while $6 million would go towards remod- eling and replacement of existing facilities, the report shows. Academic Structures These capital outlay monies would be used for classroom and laboratory buildings and related academic structures, the report notes. However, the Legislature would need to keep supplying the $49 million for at least the next eight years, with the 1970's un- explored, the report contends. Part of the capital outlay funds, between $6-$12 million, would sup- ply additions necessary for the community college system. No operating appropriation increase was recommended for the state community colleges, however. They are two-year institutions providing strong vocational train- ing and giving preparatory "trans- fer" education aimed at allowing students to take their junior, sen- ior and graduate years in other in- stitutions. The report gives the recommen- dations for substantial and unpar- alleled state increases in the oper- ating appropriation and capital outlay funds, spurred by its sta- tistical realization that 1964 will be the first year of the post-war "bumper crop" of babies. Reports Uses Of Television fn U' Teaching By MILLICENT NOBLE The University Center for Re- search on Learning and Teaching has made available to faculty members information on the latest uses of educational television. Keeping the University's in- structors informed of latest prog- ress in areas which are relevant to their teaching methods is one of the tasks which has been taken on by the center, headed by Prof. Standford C. Ericksen of the psy- chology department. Television has been used by several University departments since 1950. Television Difference The center differentiates be- tween educational television, which is designed for the general public, and instructional television, which is set up for the benefit of the student. Instructional television is use- ful for several reasons. An unlimited number of stu- dents can listen to a particular in- structor at one time. It permits close-up views of demonstrations to large lecture classes. Instruc- tional
