in my. opinion, should stand large-
ly on their own feet, with the
definite understanding that to the
extent that private funds and re-
search foundations established by
business and individuals are in-
adequate, funds for such purposes
might well be advanced by gov-
ernment. In the administration of
a university recognition of such a
policy would call for a much more
careful accounting than is now
characteristic of many institu-
tions.
5 What role do you think
should be played by student gov-
ernment at the University?
ARSULOWICZ - I think that
student government should be
given the widest possible oppor-
tunity to function at a university.
The youth of America has been
able to assume responsibility in
an intelligent manner when given
that chance.
BAITS-I regard student gov-
ernment as being essential in our'
University. Its role, to my mind,
is fourfold:
1. To improve and enrich extra-
curricular student life as prepara-
tion for well-rounded citizenship.
2. To provide channels for the
expression of representative stu-
dent opinion.
3. To assume official responsi-
bility for student relations with
faculty and administration.
4. To act as the vehicle of liaison
between the University's student
body and those of other colleges
and universities in this country
and throughout the world.
CONNABLE-I believe the stu-
dents should be given all the ie-
