Hutchinsculminated last week with a meetingof the Board ofTrustees called toconsider the “Me¬morial” addressedto it by the Senate.In their reply tothe Senate con¬cerning the Memo¬rial, the Trusteesasserted their con¬fidence in the lead- harold h. swift,ership of President Chairman of theTT , V • 1 Board of TrusteesHutchins, and ex¬pressed the hope that a more effectiveorganization of the University mightbe adopted to enable the President andFaculty to work together in amity forthe greater good of the UnfVersitv asa whole.In answer to the fear expressed inthe Memorial that one particularideology would be imposed upon theUniversity, they assured the Senatethat no such imposition was intender^.As for the points in the Memorialconcerning the organization of theUniversity and the relationships be¬tween Board, President and Faculty,the Board referred such matters toits own Committee on Instruction andResearch, headed by Laird-Bell. Thiscommittee has been studying suchproblems for over a year, in coopera¬tion with the Senate’s Committee onAcademic Reorganization, headed byLeonard D. White, which was estab¬lished by the Senate on the requestof President Hutchins.(For complete text of the Trustees’statement, see column 3, this page.)The submission of the Memorial tothe Board of Trustees was the out¬growth of long-standing opposition toMr. Hutchins, and his many reformmeasures, both those proposed andothers already in effect. The presi¬dent’s opponents, alarmed by his re¬cent statements and actions, drew up the document and had it approved bya majority of the Senate for submis¬sion to the Board.The major points stressed by theMemorial are: 1) the University can¬not servo its proper functions if com¬mitted to any particular ideology.2) in order to maintain the standardsof the University, it is necessary thatits members, organized according tosubject matter (departmental, divi¬sional, and school faculties), haveConti cl over the appointment and pro¬motion of those who are to teach andconduct research in tbeir respectivefields.3) Doctoral degrees should not beconferred on students who have notbeen adequately trained in the advanc¬ed methods of inquiry proper to thesubject matters they have studied andare preparing to teach.4) Determination of programs mustbe left primarily to the judgment ofgroups of men experienced in bothteaching and research in the partic¬ular subject matters involved.5) The Statutes of the Universitymu.st be such as to secure to the prop¬er faculties and ultimately to theSenate a decision on all proposalswhich substantially affect education¬al ends, policies, and organization ofstudies.(For complete text of the Memorial,see page 6.)Although these matters, as well asatteiidrnt ones, had been discussed be¬fore in an exchange of letters be¬tween President and an unofficial“committee of six,” the committeeand a group of the Faculty were notsatisfied by Mr. Hutchins’ replies.Consequently the dissident Senatorsmemorialized the Board of Trusteesfor further assurances and some con¬structive action guaranteeing theabove five principles.In L statement released after theBoard of Trustees meeting. PresidentHutchins again assured the Senatethat he plans no such imposition of an(See Controversy, page seven)Text Of Trustees' StatementSent To Senate On MemorialTo the Senate of The University ofChicago:The Board of Trustees acknowl¬edges the receipt of the Memorialon the State of the University adoptedand transmitted to it by the Univer¬sity Senate. It is noted that the adop¬tion of the Memorial should not beconstrued as raising a question of con¬fidence in the President. The Boardrecognizes the important part whichthe Faculty has played in bringingthe University to a positon of leader¬ship and shares the hope and beliefof the Senate that a way can befound for more effective organiza¬tion of the University so that “thePresident and the Faculties, withoutsacrifice of essential principle oneither side, may work together vigor¬ously and in amity to the greatergood of the University as a whole”.The Memorial expresses concernlest the University should be com¬mitted to a particular ideology orphilosophy. The Board considers thatthe very concept of a “University”and the concept of “academic free¬ dom’! prohibit the imposition upon theUniversity of any particular philoso¬phy, and calls the attention of theSenate to the history of the institu¬tion from its beginnings in regard tothis aspect of academe freedom. ThePresident has stated that he has nointention of committing the Univer¬sity to any particular philosophy. TheBoard strongly endorses this state¬ment as an expression of its ownpolicy.In this connection, the Board ismindful of the fact that the Univer¬sity was founded by a group which,although strongly denominational,maintained with unwavering convic¬tion that the University should befree from commitment to any par¬ticular dogma. The Board takes thisopportunity of transmitting to theSenate a statement it recently hadoccasion to make, which, althoughprimarily concerned with religiousqualifications of Trustees, seems per¬tinent as an expression of the spiritof free inquiry to which the Univer-(See Trnatees, page seven) PRESIDENT ROBERT M.HUTCHINSReceives Vote of Confidence'from Board of TrusteesConvocation Today;468 To Get DegreesPresident Robert M.

Now that the “Memori¬al” has been released along with a statementfrom the Board of Trustees in reply to the Sen¬ate document, the entire University can see justwhat sort of a peculiar role the dissenting sena¬tors selected for themselves. Moreover, the un¬represented majority of the faculty, as well asthe students of the University, can now judgethe utter pretentiousness and insincerity of theseaugust gentlemen.Before the developments of the past week,the Senate meeting was secret, the Senate docu¬ments were secret, the Senate motives were se-crt. However, we now can read the confidential“Memorial” and the statement of the Board ofTrustees, w^e can reach into our files for the in¬terim report of the Senate Committee on Reor¬ganization, compare these documents, and ana¬lyze with infinitely greater accuracy than beforethe controversy which has been plaguing theUniversity for so long.The first salient feature that meets a criticaleye is the fact that there never was any realjusification for the existence of a “Memorial”or any of the agitation which attended its birth,circulation and eventual adoption by the Senate.We are told in concise language that every prob¬lem included in both the “Memorial” and the ear¬lier exchange of letters has been under seriousconsideration since January, 1943 by a jointcommittee of seven Trustees and seven Senators.There has not been any major conflict betweenthe Senate members and the Trustees. The sev¬en faculty men are all signers of the “Memorial”and are all unanimous, except in degree, in theiropposition to the President. Moreover, these twocommittees working independently, as well asjointly, were making satisfactory progress to¬wards their avowed goal—an equitable solutionfor the problems of organization and policy ofthe University. Then why in Heaven’s name allthe commotion surrounding the “Memorial” andwhy a “Memorial” at all?The answer is really simple. This small groupof senior faculty men by their very actions givethe lie to their pious protestations of seekingonly the best interests of the University. Quiteto the contrary, these men are only interested intheir petty perogatives, their rank, and theirsalaries. Even if they wished the University well,they would be unable to demonstrate this bytheir actions because they lack the necessary vis¬ion and the objective intelligence. Yet, these arethe very people who make their demands asguardians of our intellectual kingdom.The Social SciencesIt was with a real sigh of relief and pleasurethat w^e heard of the results of the recent fac¬ulty meeting of the Division of Social Sciences.At last, a faculty met to make constructive plansto meet a problem which had not yet arrived,something designed for the future, instead ofexpending all its creative and vocal energies at¬tempting to castigate its real or imagined ene¬mies. And, it was a pleasure to learn that theproposed changes in the divisional regulationswere engendered by a sincere consideration forthe problem of post-war educational reconstruc¬tion.Dean Robert Redfield and the faculty of the This Week On CampusFriday, June 16—Two Hundred Seventeenth Convocation.

Smedley and GeorgeJohn HarmonG o o d ness,”said' Smedley,“That vacationwe took last weekdid a lot for ournerves after thatterrible Senatemeeting but itput us way be¬hind in our learning about life. We'llhave to do something big this week.What do you say we find out aboutfraternities ?”George the Goat didn’t exactlyknow what a fraternity was but waswilling to try anything once, so (atSmedley’s direction) he set out tofind out about fraternities. They gal¬loped along until they met a fellowwith a pin on his coat.“I imagine that you must be a fra¬ternity member,” said Smidley notingthe strange letters sprawled acrossthe pin.“Philos!” said the fraternity man.“Goodness,” said Smedley. Georgedidn’t say anything but looked in thedirection of International House insearch of an interpreter. But nonecame. It looked hopeless.Smedley decided another attemptat conversation in English. “I hearthat fraternities are dying on cam¬pus,” he said quietly.This prompted the fraternity maninto a flow of Basic English vitupera¬tion.“Goodness!” said Smedley as hecovered George’s ears. “I’ve heardmore of that kind of talk in the pasttwo weeks than ever before.”“Your interest can only be restrain¬ed so long and then you must resortto the i*rimitive,” explained the fra¬ternity man who had by this timelapsed into English (which was, in re¬ality, the only language he under¬stood, outside of a bit of barroomItalian and scattered Greek lettersand phrases.)“Well,” said Smedley, “I want tolearn about fraternities. How abouttelling me about them?”“Better than that,” said the fra¬ternity man. “I’ll take you to theCouncil where you can meet them all.”This sounded like a good idea toSmedley and George so they followedthe fraternity man to the Councilmeeting. When they arrived, it wasalready in progress.“Oh,” sa’d Smedley, “they’re goingto sing, George.” And they did sing:“Hail to thee. Fraternity*We sing your prai.se all the dayses.There’s nothing like men under aroofWho remain alo^f from the com¬mon goof.We gain publicity and notorietyAnd thus the upper strata of socie¬ty.We work together in a commoncauseAnd deafen our ears with our ownapplause.Hail! Oh Hail! Hail to thee!Instead of knov/ledge. Fraternity!”“They should take singing lessons,shouldn’t they, George?” asked Smed¬ley ]jicking the cotton from his earsand stuffing it into a shirt pocketvdiere he could reach it auickly.“That’s the fraternity brotherhoodsong,” explained their guide. “Nowthey’ll get to the business at hand.”Just then a small fellow with a crewcut arose and began to speak. “I haveheard that one of our carping broth¬ers has planned to attack the fra¬ternities in a most diabolical way”The room was instantly filled withcatcalls and vitriolics which didn’tseem the proper expressions ofbrotherly love to either Smedley or George. When the noise had dieddown, the speaker continued, “I re¬peat, he has planned to attack thefraternities in a most diabolical way.. .by telling the truth about them!”The bedlam once again shook thewalls. However, it died down as be¬fore and the speaker continued, “Hesays we do not realize we are in themidst of change...”“Tell him how we’re meeting themanpower shortage,” shouted one ofthe brothers.“Better still, tell him we have plans,but don’t mention what'they are. Thatis the l)est political move possiblethese days,” shouted another.“I’ll reply that he is only lookingat the faults,” continued the speaker.“That always effectively confuses theissue. In fact, we’ll draw up an ans¬wer to him now.”“But fir.st, let’s sing our w'arriorsong for inspiration,” sugge.sted thepresident.“Hail warriors for Fraternity!March so that the world will see:There is nothing better than thelettersThe Grecian letters in forming fet¬ters!You will ceitainly get shelterUnder an .\lpha DelterAnd there’s nothing greaterThan to be a Beta.It keeps us from being nervouswrecksSince it allows us to talk of S-E-X.”(Author’s note: This refers to abiological separation of the species,the discusison of which is peculiar tomen over fifty and fraternities. I hopeyou will pardon this digression.)This last was too much for Smed-ley’s four year old ears so he andGeorge left as the fraternity boyscontinued their songs.“Goodness,” said .Smedley. “Theymust be some of those Chicago isola¬tionists that Daddy was telling about.”SesquipedaliaThe season when we all hear fromE. C. Miller being here, I decided, asusual, that formal education is use¬less. Instead I suggest the study ofuseless words.The textbook, of course, is Websterand if you are the systematic type,you will begin w'ith the title page andsoon will be familiar with uselesswords like “abacinate,” “abaction,”and “asafetida.” By the end of theweek, you will be able to tell yourlandlady that you are sorry youspilled the beer in the livingroombut that you’ll “absterge” it imme¬diately; or inform the librarian thatyou did not know that the “abwab”regulations apply between quarters.If you use the pinprick method, youmay hit a word like “redundancy.”Redundancy is the generic term cov¬ering “pleonasm,” “tautlology,” “ver¬bosity,” verbiage,’ “prolixity,” “cir¬cumlocution,” and “periphrase.” Noend enlightened you will look up“prolixity” which is defined as thequality of being “prolix.” Attacking“toxology,” I mean “tautology” nextyou will find that it differs from“pleonasm” in that it applies to ideas,whereas “pleonasm” applies to lan¬guage or vice-versa. The verbiage ofWebster having confused you by thistime by its circumlocution you willdecide that “sesquipedialia” is a prolixstudy and anyway, what was thestudy and anyway, what was thename of the murder mystery yourroommate recommended? . . .

Trudy (Betty Hutton) aftera stiff night out at a farewell partyfor soldiers is oblivious of the occur¬rences of the evening before until shesuddenly remembers she got married,to wfiom or under what name shecannot remember. She has a vaguerecollection that it’s something likeRatzskywatzsky, which isn’t much help when she dis¬covers she is pregnant.

Mr.Kirkpatrick studied his instrumentwith Landowska and Boulanger inParis, with Dolmetsch in England,and with Ramin and Tiessen in Ber¬lin. In 1936 he was awarded a Gug¬genheim Fellowship for research in17th and 18th century chamber music,and since 1940 he has held a visitinglectureship at Yale.♦ ♦ *Nothing definite has materialized asyet with regard to the two concertsof ancient and new music for wind in¬struments to be played from the bat¬tlements of Mitchell Tower, whichwere announced in the concluding pro¬gram of the chamber concert series.♦ ♦ ♦Now comes the time when it is nec¬essary to review the season just end¬ed and sefe what advances, if any, weremade. Following are the number ofperformances given each composer inthe programs given by the Music De¬partment: Mozart-6; Milhaud-5; Hin¬demith-4; Stravinsky-3; Beethoven-2;Brahms-2; Faure-2; Copland-2; Goss-mann-2; Thomson-2; one each—Han¬del, Haydn, Bach, Debussy, Chavez,Schubert, Verdi, Schumann, Tschai-kowsky, Prokofieff, von Weber, Chopin,Dinicu-Heifetz-Piatigorsky, de Falla,Granados, Martinu. From the forego¬ing it can be seen that Mozart led innumber of works performed on thechamber series; Milhaud, on the com¬posers’ series. Hindemith was repre¬sented on both series, the only one soto appear.In this reviewers opinion the mostsue ssful composers’ concerts werethe opening one with Milhaud and theconcluding one devoted to Americancomposers. The chamber concerts wereat their best in the program played bythe University Orchestra under HansLange, and the Stern-Zakin recital.The Hindemith concert was the most outstanding one in point of signifi¬cance with regard to the premiere ofa new work, in this case Ludus Tona-lis. This is not to say, however, thatthe work met with unqualified ap¬proval ; and I have heard of no fur¬ther performance of it since. The workprobably was too cerebral in its con-.ception to make much of an impres¬sion on the great mass of the audi¬ence : I noticed one distinguished mem¬ber of the faculty who fell asleep dur¬ing its performance.CECIL M. SMITHChairman, Department of MusicThe Milhaud program attracted fav¬orable attention, partly because of thecomposer’s restrained use of disson¬ance, partly because of the presenceof a melodic line which the listenercould grasp: this was also true of theAmerican works, with the exception ofTomson’s Sonata da chiesa. Too muchof the music performed seemed moreto strive after some new phrasing orharmonic structure for the sake of thenovelty than for the sake of orderlydevelopment. This is the sort of thingthat leads to blind alleys in the his¬tory of music. In fact, it would not beinappropriate to quote Cecil Gray onthe subject: “. . . Fruitful develop¬ments in music in the future are un¬likely to occur along 4he line of any‘-isms’, and, least of all, of anyI.S.C.M.’s; by which is meant the an¬nual ugliness contests which take placeunder the auspices of the Interna¬tional Society for Contemporary Mu¬sic, at which the home-selected MissFrance, Miss England, Miss Czecho¬slovakia, Miss Hungary, and the rest,compete for the suffrages of a motley,cosmopolitan gathering of grey-beard¬ed, bald-headed, ear-trumpeted, bath-chaired revolutionaries of the pre-warera, still searching avidly for yet an¬other new thrill, and blissfully una¬ware of their senility and sperannua-tion.” 'One of the high points of the com¬posers’ series was the fact that twomajor new works for the piano wereperformed. The literature for that in¬strument has been declining in thequantity of new works for it eversince about 1860, when writing forpiano had passed its heydey—andnothing much has been done to arrestthe decline. The Copland Sonata, al¬though a rather angular work, is oneof the best works consciously writtenfor the pianist and lies well underthe hands. Ludus Tonalis is more in¬tractable in its technical demands;but it offers good practice in partplaying. The works for two pianos,Milhaud’s Scaramouche and Stravin¬sky’s Concerto, while not very recentcompositions, also offered somethingadequate for the instrument. It is tobe hoped that the series next yearv^ill bring forth an increased amountof new piano music. In general though,it should be remarked that the twoseries were of a fairly high caliberand set a mark to be aimed at, nextyear. —W.W.Page Six — —— the CHICAGO MAROONMemorial to Board of TrusteesOn State of the UniversityRESOLVED, That the President berequested to transmit to the Board ofTrustees the following: memorial onthe state of the University, togetherwith the vote of the Senate on this mo¬tion.The Senate of the University of Chi¬cago is moved to deep concern for thewell-being of the University, and es¬pecially the maintenance of its char¬acter as a free institution of higherlearning, by various recent acts anddeclarations of the President, notablyhis address of January 12, 1944, atthe Trustee-Faculty Dinner, and hissubsequent statements of his views toindividual members of this faculty. Inthe address on January 12, the Pres¬ident, reiterating ideas expressed theyear before in his Education for Free¬dom, asserted that the Universitymust be dedicated to a new “purpose”—a “crusade” to procure “a moral, in¬tellectual, and spiritual revolutionthroughout the world' that would in¬volve a reversal of “the whole scale ofvalues by which our society lives.”And in the same address, as “neces¬sary preliminary steps” to the accom¬plishment of this purpose, he proposeda system of educational and adminis¬trative changes within the Universitywhich included the setting up of a newInstitute of Liberal Studies to awardthe Ph.D. degree as a degree forteachers, and the alteration of theconstitution of the University so as togive to the President authority to putinto effect educational policies withoutpreviously securing the approval, byvote, of the Senate or the facultiesconcerned.Need of improvementThe Senate does not question theneed of improvement, moral, intel¬lectual, and spiritual, in the contem¬porary world, or the obligation of theUniversity to do everything it proper¬ly can, through a broad disseminationof the spirit of free and competent in¬quiry, to bring such improvementabout. The Senate, again, does notquestion the vital importance forAmerican society of achieving moreintelligent and rigorous forms of gen¬eral education and of training teach¬ers for this purpose who will be atonce experts in their subject mattersand masters of the arts of instillinggood intellectual habits in their stu¬dents. Nor is the Senate under anyillusion that everything is perfectwithin the University itself, or thatthere may not be many problemswhich require to be examined afreshfor the sake both of scientific andeducational progress and of efficiencyand harmony of administration.Responsible leadership a pre¬requisiteIn the solution of these problems,which are likely to become more nu¬merous and complicated with the end¬ing of the war, the Senate believesthat vigorous and responsible leader¬ship, on the part of the President andof the faculty, is an indispensableprerequisite of success; and for thisreason, just as it recognizes the obli¬gation of the President, in the inter¬est of the University as a whole, toexercise an unlimited veto over ap¬pointments and promotions, so it free¬ly acknowledges his privilege, and in¬deed his duty, in the same interest, toinitiate proposals, and present argu¬ments, for any reforms in educationhe may think desirable. For this rea¬son, too, the Senate would welcomeany suitable changes in the adminis¬tration of the University which wouldhelp to infuse a greater vitality intoits parts, to facilitate broader pro¬grams of teaching and research, tosustain more effectively the standardsof its departments or schools, to make RONALD S. CRANESponsor of Memorialeasier the adjustment of the Univer¬sity to the changing circumstances ofwar and reconstruction, and to bringabout a closer understanding and morefruitful cooperation; on administrativeand educational matters alike, be¬tween its officers and the members ofits faculties.No (ideological comittmentsThe Senate, however, holds thesefollowing principles to be fundamentalin the policy this University shouldpursue. It believes that a great univer¬sity like the University of Chicago,dedicated to the advancement of knowl¬edge through free research and teach¬ing, cannot continue to prosper intel¬lectually or to serve, in ways appro¬priate to such a university, the com¬munity of scholars and citizens, if itis committed to any particular social,moral, philosophical, or spiritualideology or other specific formulationof unity.Faculty control a safeguardThe Senate is convinced, moreover,that if the University is to be safe¬guarded against the encroachment ofdogma, as well as against a progres¬sive lowering of its standards, theremust be continued control by its mem¬bers, organized according to subjectmatters in departments, divisions, andschools, over the appointment and pro¬motion of those who are to give in¬struction or to conduct research intheir respective fields.Requirements, for PhD.The Senate also is convinced that,while training for teaching in institu¬tions of higher learning is an essen¬tial part of the graduate work of theUniversity, the ideals both of intel¬lectual freedom and of scholarly andscientific distinction to which the Uni¬versity is devoted would be imperilledwere it to confer its doctoral degreesupon students who had not been ade¬quately trained, by appropriate groupsof experts, in the advanced methods ofinquiry proper to the subject mattersthey had studied and were preparingto teach.Programs determined by pro¬fessorsLastly, the Senate holds that, al¬though in the fashioning of programsdirected to these ends a conception ofthe University as a whole is alwaysessential as a corrective of partialviews, the determination of the pro¬grams themselves must be left pri¬marily to the judgment of groups ofmen experienced in both teaching andresearch in the particular subject mat¬ters involved.Final Power to SenateAnd for this reason, and also be¬cause the exercise of power in thesematters without the free consent ofthe faculty is bound to be ineffectual. the Senate believes that the educa¬tional leadership of the Presidentmust be a leadership achieved throughdiscussion and persuasion, and thatthe fundamental constitution of theUniversity, therefore, must be such asto secure to the proper faculties andultimately to the Senate, or other cen¬tral academic ruling body, a decisionon all proposals which substantiallyaffect educational ends, policies, andorganizations of studies.Senate worried by Hutchins’formulaThe Senate, being convinced that afirm adherence to these principles isan essential condition of the intel¬lectual greatness of the University, aswell as of its internal peace, has beendeeply disturbed by the apparent wishof the President to divert energiesand resources of the University to theservice of a particular formula of rev¬olutionary change. Its alarm has beenincreased by his suggestion of a newgraduate institute, based on a separa¬tion of education for teaching fromeducation for research, which wouldpresumably be endowed with powersof devising curricula and appointinginstructors in subject matters alreadyorganized at the same level in the Uni¬versity, independently of the controlof men whose expertness is guaran¬teed in some measure by their mem¬bership in regular departments of in¬struction.The Senate feels great concern atthis proposal, as well as at variousother proposals relating to educationalpolicy in the President’s speech ofJanuary 12, although it would be pre¬pared to consider all of them on theirmerits were these to be fully set forth.And this concern has been further in¬tensified by the fear that, if the prin¬ciple of administrative reorganizationadvocated in the same speech were tobe accepted, action might be taken onthese and similar suggestions withoutadequate effort to persuade and be¬fore effective advice, as expressed ina vote of the Senate or other appropri¬ate academic body on the specific is¬sues, had been secured, with the resultFRANK H. KNIGHTSigner of Memorialthat the faculty might either be pre¬sented with the whole program as anaccomplished fact or kept in a con¬tinual state of alarm by a piecemealintroduction of its parts.President’s actions strengthenfearsThe Senate, although it thinks itsees in the President’s new plan im¬plications sharply at variance withthe nature of the University as aninstitution of learning free from com¬mitment to any specific formulation ofthe truth, has been reluctant to be¬lieve that this interpretation of thePresident’s words is actually in ac¬cord with his thought. The President, however, by various actions and state¬ments subsequent to the speech ofJanuary 12, has tended rather tostrengthen than to allay the Senate’sfears. Although urged more than onceto do so, he has refrained from callingthe Senate into regular session to hearan explanation of his program. He hasJACOB VINERSigner of Memorialnot consulted the Senate or its Com¬mittee on Policy on either of the twomuch discussed measures relating torank and contract which he recentlyrecommended, or announced his in¬tention of recommending, to the Boardof Trustees, although both measureswere among those which had beenmentioned in his speech of January 12as among the “necessary preliminarysteps” to the realization of his neweducational “purpose” for the Uni¬versity as a whole. And he has not,in any of his recent speeches or writ¬ings, added any concrete details orclarifications to the statements on uni¬versity administration he had previ¬ously made, except for the comment,in his address at Northwestern Uni¬versity in February, that since pro¬fessors in general do not take educa¬tion seriously, and since the Presidentis the only one in a modern universityv^ho can see the university as a whole,it should be his responsibility to de¬velop educational programs, and, withthe advice but not the prior consent ofhis faculty, to carry them into effect.Faculty has faith in own adviceEven these more recent signs of thePresident’s intentions, however, werenot sufficient to convince the facultythat the crisis now rapidly developingin the University could not still beresolved, by mutual explanation andp^^rsuasion, in a manner satisfactoryto both sides. The faculty could not be¬lieve that the President would notattend to the friendly advice, on mat¬ters of educational principle and pol¬icy of the men upon whom he mustrely for the execution of his plan, orthat he would be reluctant to revealhis purposes in detail to those whov/ould be called upon to fulfil them.Exchange of letters seeksunderstandingWith a full sense of the gravity ofthe crisis, and seeking only clarity andaccommodation, a .small group ofmembers of the Senate took it uponthemselves to ask the President for apublic clarification of his aims, and,if possible, for such a restatement ofthem as would seem to the faculty ingeneral to accord, on all fundamentalpoints, with the principles of educa¬tional policy which the Senate wouldhold to be essential.The resulting correspondence hasbeen communicated, with the consentof the President, to all members ofthe faculty, and the general effect ofhis replies has been to increase stillmore the prevailing alarm concerningthe future ol the University. The de¬gree of this alarm which many mem-into extraordinary session on the ini¬tiative of a large number of its mem¬bers in order to consider fundamentalissues of University life. j bers of the Senate now feel may bejudged by the fact that, for the firsttime in its history (so far as can belearned), this body has been calledThe Senate does not despairThe Senate, in spite of all that hasrecently happened, does not despair ofa happy resolution of the crisis suchas would enable the President and thefaculty, without sacrifice of essentialprinciple on either side, to work to¬gether vigorously and in amity to thegreater good of the University as awhole. The President himself, at theend of the second of his letters to theSenators who were in correspondencewith him, seemed to leave open a pros¬pect of harmony between himself andthe faculty when he suggested thesubmission of a third plan of Univer¬sity organization, if there were anyto propose, that would be more satis¬factory to the faculty than either ofthe two alternatives—namely, that thePresident should become either a “re-.sponsible executive” or a “Chairmanof the P’aculty”—which he had laidbefore the Board of Trustees over ayear ago.Senate appeals to TrusteesThe Senate, recognizing the author-ity and responsibility of the Board ofTrustees and believing that the Boardwould share its concern at the difficul¬ties the University now faces if itwere fully cognizant of them, appealsto the Board for its active assi.stance,with the President and the faculty, indeveloping a comprehensive plan forthe organization of the Universitywhich, while making adequate pro¬vision for initiative and correction ineducational matters on the part ofboth administration and faculty andfor leadership on the part of thePresident, would explicitly safeguardthose basic principles, set forth in thismemorial, without which, in the judg-I ment of the Senate, the Universitycannot continue to be great or free.Assurances requiredThe Senate, therefore, respectfullyrequests the Board of Trustees to as¬sure this body and the faculty as awhole that the University will not beofficially committed to any “purpose”which would tend to subordinate, inreality or in appearance, its essentialactivities and programs, and the freechoice of principles and methods ofresearch or teaching, to any particularformulation of moral, social, philo¬sophical, or scientific values.Senate approval necessaryThe Senate further requests the co¬operation of the Board of Trustees ininsuring that no proposals will beadopted, without the approval of theSenate, which would have the effect(a) of undermining the independenceand solidarity of departments; or (b)of establishing new teaching insti¬tutes, with separate staffs and budg¬ets, having authority to award higherdegrees in subject matters or fieldswhich, in the opinion of the Senate,are already organized on the samelevel in regular departments and divi¬sions; or (c) of setting up in anyfield programs of study at the doc¬toral level which do not include, asprerequisites for the degree, adequatetests of competence in the basic tech¬niques of inquiry or research properto that field.Senate asks increased powersFinally, the Senate respectfully re¬quests the cooperation of the Board ofTrustees with a committee of the Sen¬ate in making certain that, 'in anycontemplated reorganization of theUniversity, provision will be made (a)for the constant exchange of ideas andadvice, without dictation on eitherside, between faculty and administra¬tion within a clear definition of edu¬cational policy, and also (b) for theformal submission of all proposed gen¬eral changes in educational objectives,curricula, and procedures to the Sen¬ate (or some other legally establishedgoverning body representative of thefaculty) for discussion and approval,(See “Memorial,” page eight)/Trustees...(Continued from pasre one)sity has always been dedicated.The Memorial expresses the con¬cern of the Senate that the Presidentunder the plans originally suggestedby him may be given broader powerover ''educational policies” of theUniversity without adequate academiccontrol. It should be noted by theSenate that the Committee on Instruc¬tion and Research of the Board ofTrustees advised the committeeelected to confer with it by the Senatethat the Committee on Instructionand Research did not regard thePresident’s Plan I or II as satisfac¬tory. Neither did the Committee be¬lieve that the suggestions of theSenate Committee were satisfactory.The President has more recently an¬nounced that he would lay aside PlansI and II in favor of a Plan III to bedeveloped.The misunderstandings which ap¬pear to exist reflect the fact that,either there are inadequate means ofmutually informed understanding, orthe existing means are not sufficientlyutilized. This is surely a problem forwhich a remedy can be found.The remaining questions raised bythe Memorial refer to the relation¬ships of the Board, the President, andthe Faculty. As the Senate knows,the Board, through its Committee onInstruction and Research, has beenfor some time engaged in a study ofthese and cognate problems in thehope of developing a form of organi¬zation that will make for a moreeffective and more informed co-opera¬tion of Faculty, Administration, andBoard. It intends to pursue thesestudies actively. The Board is of theopinion that considerable progresshas been made thus far, and continuesthe study with confidence that a solu¬tion will be found without undue de¬lay. In dealing with this problem, theBoard requests the continued co¬operation and aid of the Senatethrough its elected Committee onAcademic Reorganization, unless theSenate prefers to designate anotherCommittee. The Board also plans toask the co-operation and aid of rep¬resentatives of the Administrationand others. In continuing thesestudies and conferences, the Boardwishes to emphasize that it will countupon those whose advice and help itseeks to lay aside any partisan viewsor interests and to look to the totalwelfare of the University, having justpride in its character and standingand in its continued leadership towardnew accomplishments in Americaneducation.The Trustees are proud of theachievements of the University underthe fifteen-year leadership of its Pres¬ident and the contribution that he hasmade to maintaining the higheststandards of education, research andacademic freedom. They have con¬fidence in his future leadership andexpect him to continue to administerthe affairs of the Universty in ac¬cordance with the existing constitu-ytion and Statutes until ^hey are Ichanged. The Board, witi. the co¬operation of the President and theFaculty, is determined to uphold thehigh standing of the University inteaching and research. Without suchcooperation and mutual confidence,the best statutes which may be de¬vised will be ineffective toward thedevelopment of the University as agreat and free institution.(Signed)THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OFTHE UNIVERSITY OP CHICAGO Controversy...’ (Continued from page one)ideology as they fear.

KERWINProfessor of Political Scienceministration in solving the problemsfacing the University.(For complete text of PresidentHutchins’ statement see this page.)In an effort to clarify the controver¬sy as far as the Senate itself is con¬cerned, The Chicago Maroon has ob¬tained interviews on the situationwith three Senators, representingthree different shades of opinion. Thethree are: Jacob Viner, Porfessor ofEconomics, who signed the Memorialand is still in favor of the views stat¬ed in that document; Jerome Kerwin,Professor Political Science, who statesthat he favors the progressive re¬forms advocated by Mr. Hutchins, andmay be generally considered pro-Hutchins in this controversy; andRobert Redfield, Professor of Anthro¬pology and Dean of the Division ofSocial Sciences. Ronald Salmon Crane,Chairman of the Department of Eng¬lish and one of the leading sponsors ofthe Memorial, refused to make anystatement for publication.In regard to the action of theBoard of Trustees, Dean Redfieldstated: "The action taken by theBoard in regard to the Memorial hashad the effect of giving further assur¬ance of the Board’s confidence in thePresident. Otherwise, it leaves thecontroversy in much the same positionas formerly. I would not expect theBoard to give assurances about howits power will be used in the future.’’Mr. Viner, on the other hand, statesthat he would have been "comforted”if the President and the Board hadgiven assurances that any changes ineducational policies would be madeonly with the consent of the Senate."Mr. Hutchins’ general assurance thatno particular ideology will be imposedupon the University does not complete¬ly satisfy me,” he states. "I do notknow what the word ‘impose’ means inthat context. I do not fear that anyindividual will be told what to teach;but it is possible to impose an ideologyupon a university without imposing itupon individuals.”Mr. Kerwin, declaring that theTrustees had taken a long-range, un¬emotional view of the matter whichthe situation on campus had made im¬possible for many faculty members,continued that the fears of the memor¬ialists are unjustified, particularly inthe matter of the imposition of anideology "The number of members ofthe Faculty that agree with Mr.Hutchins’ ideology—a mere handful—is eloquent testimony of Mr. Hutch- . THE CHICAGO MAROONins* tolerance,” he pointed out.The views of the three professorson the subject of education for re¬search versus education for teaching,one of the basic issues of educationalphilosophy contained in the Memorial,revealed other disagreements amongthe Faculty members interviewed.Mr. Viner agreed with the Memorialthat competence in research must beprerequisite to the granting of all de¬grees at the doctoral level, saying, "Tobe capable of doing good teaching, aman must be capable of doing researchinto how knowledge in his field is ac¬quired.” Mr. Kerwin, in direct op¬position, said, "I do not believe thatcompetence in research is one of thenecessary qualifications for a goodteacher. I have seldom known a goodresearch man who was a good teach¬er. Genuine research and genuineteaching are both full-time jobs.”Dean Redfield, taking a different viewfrom either of the others, stated: "Thequalifications of a competent teacherinvolve an understanding of the na¬ture of research. The question of howthat understanding should best be ob¬tained, however, is still open.”In regard to the matter of Univer¬sity organization, that is, the consti¬tution of the University, Mr. Vinersaid: "I don’t particularly care howthe Statutes read; if there is an intentto withhold power form the Faculty,no Statutes adopted could preventsuch action.” He repeated his desirefor assurances by the President andthe Board that changes in educationalpolicies would be made only with theconsent of the Senate. Mr. Kerwin,again - in opposition to Mr. Viner’sopinions, stated: "The Senate as nowconstituted should have no power,much less veto power over anything.--?• - ^'i.-.■■ ■ ■■.. ft**ROBERT REDFIELDDean, Division of Social SciencesAssuming a representative Senate, theSenate might be given veto power ifit would accept responsibility for itsactions; for instance, if the Presidentshould resign as a result of the Sen¬ate’s exercise of its veto power, theSenate would have to bear responsibil¬ity for his resignation.” In regard tothe matter of a representative Senate,Mr. Kerwin, the author of a plan forthe election of the Senate members bythe faculty at large, continued: “Idislike the reform of the Senate pro¬posed by the White committee; a bodyis not made more representatve byenlarging its membership.” (TheWhite Committee on Academic Re¬organization, appointed by the Senate,in its interim report submitted to theSenate at its last meeting declares:"We have recommended a Senatewhich includes exofficio all membersof the faculty who hold permanenttenure. The number of members ofsuch a Senate would be about 350.”)Mr. Kerwin went on to say: “Theargument for a Senate composed ex¬clusively of men on permanent tenure—that they alone can speak freely,without fear of pressure from above—is not valid. If it is true that thereis such pressure, we should act to doaway with that pressure, not attempt The President'sStatement"The organization of the Universi¬ty, which is neither efficient nor dem¬ocratic, has been under study sinceJanuary, 1943, by a committee of theBoard and a committee of the Senate,elected for the purpose at my sug¬gestion. These studies will continue.“It is the duty of the president ofa university to formulate and statehis conception of the purposes of theinstitution. Nobody has to agree withthe President’s statements. The im¬position of a particular doctrine wouldbe a violation of the perfect academicfreedom which the administration ofthe University of Chicago has alwaysguaranteed."It should now be possible for thefaculty, trustees and administrationto resume the forward march of theUniversity of Chicago toward theimprovement of education, the ad¬vancement of knowledge, and thesolution of the perplexing problemsof organization in a great modernuniversity.”Statement ofHarold H. Swift"For more than a year committeesrepresenting the Senate and theBoard of Trustees of the Universityof Chicago have been consideringproposals made by President Hutchinsfor clarification of educational author¬ity. Because the memorial submittedto the Board by the Senate at itsmeeting May 22 is largely concernedwith similar problems, the Board issuggesting to the Senate that thememorial be referred to these com¬mittees for consideration.”"The memorial also expresses theconcern of some members of the Sen¬ate that the University may be com¬mitted to a certiinbeeThemitted to a particular philosophy. ThePresident has stated that he has nointentions of committing the Univer¬sity to any particular philosophy. TheBoard strongly endorses this state¬ment as an expression of its ownpolicy.”"The Board notes that the Senatehas explicitly stated that the adop¬tion of the memorial by the Senateshould not be construed as raisinga question of confidence in the Pres¬ident. The Board wishes at this timeto express its own confidence in thePresident and to recognize the ed¬ucational achievements of the Univ¬ersity during the fifteen years of hisleadership. The Board expects him tocontinue to administer the affairs ofthe University in accordance with theexisting Constitution and Statutes,until they are changed.”to act within the handicaps imposedby it.”The other two Senators interviewedhad no such strong views on the meth¬od of selection of the Senate. Mr.Viner declared: "I have no strongfeelings about how the Senate shouldbe constituted. I would be satisfiedwith any type of academic ruling bodythe Faculty desires, although I wouldhope that it did not desire an electiveSenate.” Dean Redfield also statedthat he had no fixed view as themethod of selecting the central aca¬demic ruling body, but said that hewould favor some body more represen¬tative of the faculty than the presentSenate.CLASSIFIEDPublic steno—Fast Service.
