He had been se­lected by the Board of Trustees of the Universityafter almost a year-long search which was under­taken upon the resignation of Lawrence A. Kimp­ton on March 29, 1961. President Beadle was for­merly the Acting Dean of the Faculty and Chair­man of the Division of Biology at the CaliforniaInstitute of Technology at Pasadena, California.He has also been on the faculties of Cornell U ni­versity, Stanford University, and Harvard. He is adistinguished geneticist, and in 1958 he receivedthe Nobel Prize in Medicine for his work in fun­damental genetics.During his first year in office, President Beadlehas changed outmoded policies and instituted newones. He has proved to be a man who is able to stepinto a new situation and view it with a clear in­sight. The following is the context of an inter­view with president Beadle, made one year afterhe took office.Interviewer: Mr. Beadle, you have held the chiefadministrative office of the University for almostone year; what are some of the major administra­tive problems that you have encountered duringthat time?Mr. Beadle: The two most important aspects ofany university are its faculty and its students. Theexcellence of a university is directly dependent onthese two factors, and our major problem at theUniversity of Chicago is to maintain both a fac­ulty and a student body of high quality.As to the faculty, we are trying to keep strengthwhere we have it and to add strength to areaswhere we most need it. The University has alwayshad more strength in some areas than in others.In recent years the Divisions of Physical Sciencesand of the Biological Sciences have had the advan­tage of availability of funds from government agencies. The Humanities and Social Scienceshave been in a less favorable position in this re­gard. One problem is to achieve a more equitablebalance in financial support of the several areas ofthe University.One way of attracting the faculty members weneed, especially in Humanities and Social Sci­ences, is to strengthen our library facilities. Ourpresent library is excellent in quality but is fall­ing behind in size. The physical facilities are bothinefficient in arrangement and inadequate in size.The solution lies in finding funds for a new li­brary building.We also can attract new faculty members inother areas with better physical facilities. The Col­lege physical facilities are inadequate. The Col­lege science teaching labs are woefully limited.The music and art teaching and research facilitiestoo, are notoriously poor. Many departments inthe rest of the University also need physical im­provement: Meteorology and Psychology both arebadly housed. This list is by no means exhaustive.The answer again is funds to improve the facili­ties.The second primary factor to be considered isthe University's student body. The situation inthe College is a unique one. Teaching is done byfaculty members who want to teach. Many facultymembers hold joint appointments in the Divisionsand the College, adding stimulation of researchactivities to teaching. The result is a "liberal arts"college, set down in the midst of a great univer­sity. It has the advantages of both, through its ac­tive collaboration between the College and thegraduate facilities. The advantages and quality ofthe College are such that it should attract the beststudent body in the country.A major problem of the graduate student in theUniversity is the lack of adequate scholarship andfellowship assistance. Most universities use teach­ing assistantships as a device to support graduatestudents. Chicago believes teaching should bedone by full-time faculty, and so we have very fewassistantships. Therefore 'we need increased fundsfor fellowships, again especially in the Social Sci­ences and Humanities.The University does provide unique opportu­nities for its graduate students in some fields, suchas the Argonne Laboratory. The University oper­ates this laboratory under contract with the Atom­ic Energy Commission of the United States Gov­ernment, and its facilities are available to facultyand graduate students of the University. Throughthe Associated M idwest Universities, some 31 oth­er universities of "the Midwest" likewise dependon the Laboratory's facilities for research, espe­cially reactor research and high-energy physics.Our graduate students in appropriate areas havethe opportunity to work at this unique facilitywith the most advanced equipment available.10Interviewer: The College has been in a state ofcontinuous change since its establishment. Do yousee any drastic changes in the College in the nearfuture?Mr. Beadle: One of the special characteristics ofthe College at the University of Chicago is that ithas always been able to change with the times.This characteristic is a valuable one, and we arestriving to maintain it. The College is at once anindividual unit and a part of the entire Univer­sity. It can and does take primary responsibilityfor the general education of undergraduates andat the same time maintains effective contact withgraduate departments.Interviewer: How do you like Chicago as opposedto California? Mr. Beadle: I grew up in the Midwest, and mywife lived here in Chicago for many years, and sowe are not strangers to this part of the country.We are somewhat dismayed, though, when we seethe snow turn black soon after it falls. We feel thatthere is still a great deal to be done in collabora­tion with city authorities and neighborhood or­ganizations in achieving a cleaner city. On theother hand, we do enjoy the changing seasons.We find Hyde Park-Kenwood a most stimulat­ing community; it is easy to be enthusiastic aboutit. It has a cohesiveness that is unique for any Uni­versity community. Some 70 percent of the facultylive near the University, which is unusual for anurban university. The result is that Hyde Park­Kenwood is a community in which there is a greatdeal of extra-classroom interaction between fac-11ulty and students, as well as between Universitypeople and members of the community.Interviewer: What do you feel about the future ofHyde Park-Kenwood?Mr. Beadle: We would like to see continued prog­ress in the area. This University is unusual in itsinterest in its surrounding community. There aremany problems; for example, those concerned'with urban renewal. The U niversity has much tooffer in the solution of these problems.Interviewer: What do you visualize as the futureof the University?Mr. Beadle: The University of Chicago, as a ma­jor private university of the Midwest, must re­main strong and must become stronger in order to retain a leading position. It is an important assetto the community, the city, and the nation. Thetrustees recognize this fact. They have supportedthe University in all its activities, as have thealumni, individuals, foundations, and governmentagencies. In addition to such support, the Univer­sity-as are many other universities in the UnitedStates-is being supported to an increasing extentby private industry. Members of industry recog­nize that the University is an asset to them as wellas to the rest of the community. Today, many ofthe University's units, especially the MedicalSchool, the Business School, and the Physical Sci­ences are supported to a considerable extent byindustry, and we are confident that the supportwill increase.12Interviewer: You devoted a great deal of yourtime to basic research in genetics before your ap­pointment here. Do you now have any time tospend in the lab?Mr. Beadle: Naturally this post keeps me prettybusy and I don't have any time to do research. Butthe scientific progress which is taking place todayin basic genetics is rapid. About all I can do is tokeep up with the day-by-day discoveries as re­ported in scientific journals.13FACULTY REVELS, 196215AdministrationR'&�TJ 6-EOR6E', TtfE STtJOiEN-r UNIONGUILD 1,.,6 60�S oN S TAcnr F.£ LD.

CoggeshallVice-President for Administration of the UniversityAFTER HOLDING THE POST OF DEAN OF STUDENTSsince 1957, John P. Netherton announced his res­ignation on December 5, 1961. Mr. Netherton,who holds the position of associate professor ofSpanish in the College, announced plans to returnto Spain where he and his wife had lived for threeyears, to do work on the sociology of small Span­ish towns.One of Netherton's most controversial decisionsin his five years as dean was the establishment of aUniversity residence requirement. Under the re­quirement, introduced in the summer of 1960, allwomen undergraduates are required to live inUniversity residence halls for four years. Under­graduate men must live in residence halls duringtheir first year, and have the option of living dor­mitories or fraternity houses their second year.The rule touched off a storm of student protestwhich lasted all of last year.The office of dean of students is one of the mostdifficult in the University administration. Whena man must represent the interests of the studentsto the administration and the views of administra­tion to students, he must indeed be the dedicateddiplomat Mr. Netherton continued to be for thepast five years.On February 6, 1962, Warner A. Wick was ap­pointed Dean of Students, succeeding Mr. Nether­ton. The new dean, a professor of philosophy, hasserved as dean of students in the humanities divi­sion and associate dean of the College. Upon ap­pointment, Mr. Wick asserted his subscription tothe theory of his predecessor, Mr. Netherton, whoonce said, "The dean's job is to produce the stu­dent in the classroom in optimum condition forCharles D. O'Connell, Jr.Assistant Dean of Students and Directorof AdmissionsJohn Phillip NethertonFormer Dean of Studentslearning. But moreover, the process which pro­duces the student in the classroom should serve aneducational function of its own."One of the problems which Wick will face asdean is the supervision and continued improve­ment of UC dormitories. By way of specific im­provements Wick would like to see, "increasedstudent activity, much of which comes from thestudents themselves." Also, he noted that he is"not satisfied with the physical arrangements inthe dorms as yet," although the program of im­provement is still in progress."James E. NewmanAssistant Dean of StudentsHenrietta HerbolsheimerDirector of the Student Health Service "Warner A. WickDean of StudentsCOLLEGE ADMINISTRATIONAlan SimpsonDean of the CollegeGeorge L. PlayeDean of Undergraduate Students22A Short Historyof the Collegeof the University of ChicagoTHE COLLEGE HAS EXPERIENCED A UNIQUE EDUCA­tional metamorphasis. Throughout its 69-year his­tory, it has experimented with many programs inan attempt to develop a superior undergraduateeducation. Foremost in its quest for academic ex­cellence has been its attempt to define the natureand function of a liberal education.At its inception, the College contained thegerms of some sort of liberal education. The Uni­versity's first president, William Raney Harper,favored a "study of the great heritage we have re­ceived from the past." He required students totake "a specified number of courses in the studyof history, the institutions and the literature ofthe past." The College originated as a junior col­lege which awarded the Associate of the Arts de­gree after two years, and a senior college whichawarded the BA, BS, or PhB (bachelor of philos­ophy) degrees.The junior college curriculum was somewhatfixed. All students studied languages, science, andmathematics; and most were required to studyEnglish and history. Minumum and maximumnumbers of courses that could be taken from eachdepartment were specified. Students took onlyfour courses at a time, because Harper didn't be­lieve they could concentrate on anyone of themif they had more. Harper thought that "each in­dividual student should be treated separately andwhen his course of studies completed, he shouldbe given his diploma .... The student will receivehis diploma not because a certain number of yearshas passed and a certain day in June has arrived,but because his work is finished." For this reason,he inaugurated four annual graduations. As administrators were loathe to allow juniorcollege students into senior college courses, thejunior college gradually became regarded merelyas a span between high school and senior college,when the student could seriously specialize. Harp­er felt a student should know what he wanted tostudy when he came here.In the early years, students created their owninstitutions. As the University did not yet haveits own athletic field, they played football forAmos Alonzo Stagg in Washington park. In 1892,University News} later to become the Maroon} be­gan publishing. Three years later, the junior classput out the first Cap and Gown. In 1902, Black­friars was formed.The first dean of the College, Harry Pratt J ud­son, became Harper's successor. He had envi­sioned a one-year general education college fol­lowed by a three year senior college for specializa­tion; however, his plan was never enacted. Judsonplaced more emphasis on training for a vocationthan had Harper. Agreeing that there must be "noinflexible bar against advancement," he believedit "quite possible to attain general culture in aCollege course course and yet ... plan a good partof the work that it will lead directly toward a pro­fession already chosen."During his administration there was almost nofaculty concern for the College. Attendance atCollege faculty meetings in the two year periodfollowing World War I averaged less than 10. Thelack of an autonomous College hurt teachingstandards. Judson, like Harper, thought research23of prime importance, and so graduate studentstaught undergraduate courses, and the annualturnover was high. Department heads complainedabout heavy teaching loads.In the College of the 1920's, said Aaron Brum­baugh who became dean of the College underRobert Maynard Hutchins, the many departmen­tal courses offered in the first two years were taken nied graduation priveleges because, out of fear, herefused to dive into the swimming pool, a physicaleducation requirement.It was suggested that the College be droppedaltogether. Chauncy S. Boucher, dean of the Col­lege in the late 1920's explained why the Collegecontinued: it provided the departments with anopportunity to select promising research students;in many combinations and produced no "commonfoundation of basic general education. Generallystudents didn't discuss intellectual matters be­cause they didn't have anything in common to talkabout .... "Class attendance was required and grade pointswere reduced for unexcused absences. Unexcusedabsence from chapel automatically resulted in thereduction of academic credit. One student was de- it brought in revenue which helped pay for re­search and graduate instruction; and it attractedcontributions from its alumni, who were wealthierthan graduate school alumni.Ernest DeWitt Burton, Judson'S 1923 successor,wanted to put the College on the South Side ofthe Midway with its own faculty, budget, dean,buildings, and equipment, and begin with earlyentrants from their junior year of high school.24His plan was stalemated in debate and it was notagreed that the College would be at, as well as in,the University until Max Mason took over thePresidency. Burton, however, had a greater in­terest in undergraduate education than Judson.Ernest Hatch Wilkins, whom he appointed deanof the College, showed great concern for the stu­dent body, introducing, among other reforms, thefirst Orientation week for entering undergraduatestudents.Also under Wilkins, UC's first survey course,which was to become the basis of the undergrad­uate curriculum, was introduced. "The Nature ofthe World and of Man" was a two quarter coursefeaturing lectures by leading University scientists.Moved by its success, several departments beganinvestigating such courses for themselves. Thecredit system, under which students graduated, after completing a certain number of class hours,also came under examination.In 1928, a committee of 9, chaired by Boucher,was appointed by President Max Mason to studyreorganization of the undergraduate curriculum.The committee's report required two comprehen­sive examinations for a bachelor's degree, one ina major field and one in a minor field. Graduationfrom the junior college would be based on thecompletion of five comprehensive examinations:English, a foreign language, natural science andmathematics, social science, and an elective field.The day before the faculty was to discuss the re­port, however, Mason resigned.Three years later, under Chancellor Hutchins,a "New Plan," somewhat similar to the Bouchercommittee's, was adopted for the College. Theplan applied Hutchins' theory of a universalscheme of education: "Education implies teach­ing. Teaching implies knowledge. Knowledge istruth. Truth is everywhere the same. Hence ed­ucation should everywhere be the same."Graduation from the junior college was to bebased on the completion of seven comprehensiveexaminations: English composition, biology, phys­ical sciences, humanities, social sciences, and twoelective sequences. Mathematics and a foreign lan­guage were also required, but they were sub­mitted by most students as having been completedin high school. Instruction in mathematics wasnot even offered in the College; students could fulfill the requirement only through the homestudy division.The New Plan was proceeded by an adminis­trative reform in which the College was givencontrol over only the first two years of under­graduate education and would award the AA de­gree. The graduate schools were organized intofour divisions: biological sciences, physical sci­ences, humanities, and social sciences. A collegefaculty, largely autonomous from the divisions,was created. A "staff" came into existence for eachCollege course and planned it. Syllabi were in­troduced to encourage independent study. Classattendance was made voluntary.The substitution of uniform comprehensive ex­aminations for grading by individual teachers wasa major feature of the new plan. Students couldproceed at their own rate, taking an examinationwhenever they felt ready for it. Although therewas an English composition placement test for stu­dents under the New Plan, few succeeded in plac­ing out. All other courses were compulsory foreveryone. In the first three years of the program,34 students completed their work in less than theusual time, but 108 took longer than two years.25In 1933, jurdisdiction over the last two years ofthe University high school was transferred to theCollege faculty; however the new four-year unitedwas not called "The College" until 1937.Under the New Plan, student activities suffereda great decline. Faced with the two year College,the many campus fraternities could offer only oneyear of membership before the student would en­ter the graduate divisions, as the University-highentrants were too young to join. The fraternities,which had to adjust to survive, did neither. Ac­tivities also suffered because of the depression.Fraternities found the student without any money,and activities, without any time, because he wasworking his way through school.Hutchins' attitude was not one of great sympa­thy. He felt that a great deal of time spent onactivities showed that the student was substitutingactivities for the more intellectual pastimes theCollege offered him. Hutchins sought "a course ofstudy consisting of the greatest books of the West­ern world, and the arts of reading, thinking, andspeaking, together with mathematics, the best ex­emplar of human reason." Such a curriculumwould "educe the elements of our common humannature," he said. He felt that his course of study could help "prepare the young for intelligent ac­tion. . . . They will have learned what has beendone in the past and what the greatest men havetought. They will have learned to think them­selves. If we wish to lay a basis for advanced study,that basis is provided." In addition, the Collegecould serve as a terminus for those students whowould end their formal education in it.In 1936, working under the principal that "theend of general education can be achieved best byhelping students to master the leading ideas andsignificant facts in the principal fields of knowl­edge, with a view to the development of intelli­gent action," a College curriculum review com­mittee recommended further changes in the un­dergraduate program. In the 1936 four-year Col­lege, fifteen comprehensives were required forgraduation, representing three years each of hu­manitis, social science, and reading, writing, andcriticism; three years selected from two years ofbiological science and two years of physical sci­ence; one year of philosophy; and two years ofelectives. In addition, students were to presentevidence of work equivalent to two years of highschool study of foreign language and mathematics.Then came World War II and a great declinein enrollment. The paucity of students gave manydivisional faculty members an opportunity to turnto the development of undergraduate education.Thus, in 1942, the College changed again. Thetwo and four year programs were combined, andthe "Hutchins BA" was awarded upon the com­pletion of the general education requirement.26During the war, student acuvines again suf­fered. Blackfriars disbanded in 1942, and did notreorganize until 1956. Cap & Gown stoppedpublication from 1941 to 1951. The Daily Ma­roon became a small weekly. Many fraternitychapters folded, never to return to campus. As thewar neared its end, the major problem of the Col­lege was educating returning veterans. 16-year oldearly entrants and 23-year old war veterans wouldbe in the same entering class. To compensate forthe students' differing backgrounds, the place­ment test program was established. Previous train­ing no longer mattered, as all course requirementswere based on the students' demonstrated abilitiesand deficiencies.Several course changes were made. A mathe­matics course and a course particularly devoted toconsidering general language problems were in­troduced. The history of western civilization wasalso added to the required core of courses, and itbecame possible to combine Humanities III withwork in a foreign language. The veterans whocame right after World War II felt that time hadpassed them by and wanted an education and de­gree as quickly as possible. Often married, work-27ing, and raising children, they had little time toparticipate in student activities.Many new organizations, however, arose oncampus. In 1946, a student edited literary maga­zine, the Chicago Review, was born. In 1948, agroup of veterans founded WUCB in the base­ment of Burton-Judson courts. The National Stu­dent Association was organized at the Universityof Chicago in 1946. In the same year the StudentUnion began, and within three years, was con­ducting the 3rd largest collegiate recreation pro­gram in the United States, including outings, folkmusic programs, campus dances, and running theReynolds club. Student government assemblies,too, began after the war.In 1945, Clarence Faust, dean of the College,led the faculty in abolishing the PhB degree. Thisdegree had been given to students who substitutedtwo elective fields for the terminal courses in twoof the three major general education sequences(humanities, social sciences, and natural sci-ences) Faust argued that it was impossible to build coherent three year sequences if the secondyear would be terminal for some students.By 1950, the two-year BA degree was runninginto trouble. Although high school graduates weresupposed to take a two-year BA followed by athree-year masters degree, the average high schoolgraduate was taking 11.6 of the 14 comps, almostthree years' work. Other schools did not accept theBA as representing more than two years of Col­lege. Thus, students who had spent three and fouryears here were recognized elsewhere as havingdone only two years of College work. Enrollmentdropped as a result.Lawrence Kimpton, who succeeded Hutchins,commented, "We had a College that with all itsgenius was frozen into a pattern alienating it fromthe rest of the University and indeed from the restof the educational world." The problem, he said,was relating the College to "the total Americaneducational process." After dealing with commu­nity and financial problems, Kimpton turned tothe problems of the College. Although he felt that"the Hutchins BA was the finest system of general28education devised that the US had ever seen," healso found problems in continuing to award it.He had a committee under vice president HenryFilbey investigate one undergraduate curriculum.While the Filbey committee met, a student Com­mittee for the College organized "to arouse senti­ment and present both pressure and argumentsfor the maintenance of a system of integrated andinterdependent courses in undergraduate study."The Filbey report, which went into effect in1954, added one year of specialization to the 14-comp BA requirement. The BA was now to bejointly awarded by the College and the divisions,thus reducing the College's autonomy. To main­tain some of its autonomy, the College institutedthe tutorial studies and professional option pro­grams. Many protests greeted the report. Personson every level and area of the University peti­tioned, presented statements, and publicized theirsupport of a general and liberal education as thebasis for a BA degree. Groups demonstrated infront of the administration building, Kimpton'shouse, and outside faculty senate meetings. TheCommittee for the College joined with the stu­dent-faculty relations committee of student gov­ernment in a campaign to oppose specializationand the "trend" towards a more conventional un­dergraduate curriculum. Nevertheless, the reportwas enacted, and the College was still furthermodified four years later.Filbey explained that action was taken "not be­cause . . . the College program is undesirable,"but because "the University simply cannot financethe program on the number of students it attracts .. . . The University needs students ... " He addedthat "by adding a year to the present College pro­gram, we can improve that program too.The students whom the University did attractparticipated in a myriad of new activities. A fac­ulty fellow program was established in 1952. In1953, the Folklore society was born. 1955 saw thebirth of intramural campus debates, cheerleadersand a band at basketball games, Court theatre, theformation of a social activities council to replacethe Student union; the Young People's SocialistLeague; the National Association for the Advance­ment of Colored People, then referred to as a"core of hardworking students"; Robin Hood'sMerrie Men, an anti-McCarthyist group; and theFestival of the Arts.There were many problems in the "new Col­lege." For example, although the average studentplaced out of only 1.5 of the comprehensives, hewas taking only 8.5, thereby missing the impor­tant third year terminal courses. Thus, in 1957,the Executive Committee on Undergraduate Ed­ucation, under Kimpton's chairmanship, wasformed to re-evaluate the College program andfind a more effective plan of general education.The recommendations contained in its 1958 re­port are the basis of the present "New New Col­lege."The report established the College as a four­year institution, devoting two years of work togeneral education, one year to a single area of con­centration, and one to "free and guided electives."Concentration requirements (including prerequi­sites) were given up to two years, except that "infields in which recognized standards require addi­tional work, they may include up to a maximumof 2 Y2 years." In addition, a College faculty wasestablished and empowered to determine the re­quirements for the BA degree and the general du­cation component of the BS degree. The College'sautonomy, which the joint degree program de­stroyed, was thus returned; once again the Collegecould award degrees.Alan Simpson became dean of the College.Speaking of the new program's advantages, hesaid, "We have balanced the claims of specializedtraining against those of general education. Wehave weighed the claims of individual choiceagainst an earlier faith in uniformity ... "The 1958 College reduced the 14 course generaleducation program to 1 0 courses. The old termi­nal courses and philosophy were eliminated fromthe required program, leaving 2 years each to hu­manities and social sciences; one year of Englishcomposition, foreign language, mathematics, phys­ical sciences, biological sciences; and two of thethree quarters of the history of Western civiliza­tion. Since the maximum time alloted to these 10courses was two years, it was expected that stu­dents would place out of at least five of the 29quarters' work represented by the 10 courses.About half of each entering class, however, hasfailed to place out of enough courses, resulting inthe waiving of certain courses on the basis of thestudent's placement performance, or arbitrarymitigation.In the present College, the comprehensive sys­tem which was one of the bases of Hutchins' New ----:----Plan has been dying a slow death. Several courses,such as mathematics and biology, count each quar­ter's work separately; others, like English compo­sition and physical sciences, count each quarter'swork in addition to the comp to determine thefinal grade.During the past year, under new ChancellorGeorge Beadle, the College faculty has discussedthe problem of mitigation as well as the entiregeneral education component and the concentra­tions in the context of the four-year program. TheNew New College, then, like its predecessors, isstill changing and striving for what its faculty con­siders the best undergraduate education, whetherit be a terminus for students or a stepping stone tograduate work.Student ActivitiesPerry A. ConstasDirector of Student ActivitiesTHE STUDENT ACTIVITIES OFFICE, UNDER THE DIREC­tion of James E. Newman, is part of the Office ofthe Dean of Students. The director of Student Ac­tivities is Perry Constas. The office is intended toserve student interests, and to allow students toattain maturity and individuality through partici­pation in varied activities. M r. Constas describesthe Student Activities' program as: "Not one I'control' nor direct, and not one dominated by theAdministration. It gets its impetus and stimulationfrom the rigorous experimentation of students. Isee it as a microcosm of a free society. It is self­governed and is exists for those students who con­tribute to it." Mr. Constas counsels and advisesstudent groups 'which also have faculty advisorswho serve to strengthen the bond between studentsand faculty members. Some of the problems which the office helps students solve are legal matters,mainly involving contracts, and financial problemsof bookkeeping and auditing. Many of the prob­lems which students encounter in planning andorganizing events serve to further their practicaleducation. Again, the emphasis is on helping thestudent to do things, not doing them for him.All the organizations on campus are registeredwith the student activities office. The many dubsand activities offer numerous types of groups forstudents to participate in. There are languageclubs, religious clubs, journalistic organizations,intellectual groups, and specialized clubs such asanthropology or history. All political views arerepresented, from the Intercollegiate Society of In­dividualists, The Young People's Socialist Leagueto the Young Americans for Freedom. Each activ­ity appeals to different people, so that all interestsmay be served through innumerable voluntary stu­dent associations.The office serves as a clearing house for all theactivities, to insure that two organizations won'tbe scheduled to meet in the same place at the sametime; as an information center, when problemsarise; and as a coordinator of functions and meet­ings. Many special projects are under the super­vision of the student activities office, for example,the Shapiro Collection. This group of 350 paint­ings is on loan to the students through StudentActivities.In all its varied duties, the main thought of theoffice, is to serve the students in every possible way.This makes it unique to our campus, for at manyother schools, such an office would be planning theactivity rather than just serving in an advisory ca­pacity. But at the University of Chicago, the pur­pose is to allow the student to follow his interestswherever they may lead him.36Staff of the Student Activities OfficeReview of the Activities of Student Government 1961-62by Leonard Friedman} President of StudentGovernment} 1961-62PROTESTS AGAINST SEGREGATION IN U OF C OWNEDhousing, and cooperative services that saved stu­dents over $6000 were the highlights of SG's ac­tivities this year. Other SG actions ranged fromsupport of the Washington Action Project andcontinued activity for the extension of civilliber­ties and civil rights to helping to clarify the pro­cedures of, and providing an opportunity for stu­dent representation on, the disciplinary commit­tee and bringing the student code up to date.For several years, SG had worked for the elimi­nation of discriminatory listings from the housingfile the University administration keeps for theuse of students in finding off-campus housing.During the past few years, however, it had becomeobvious, from refusals by University City RealtyCo., which manages only University owned prop­erty, to rent apartments (which were known to beavailable) to Negro students who had applied forthem, that the more serious problem of direct dis­crimination by the University was at issue. Dur­ing the Winter Quarter of 1961, SG, in coopera­tion with the campus chapter of the NAACP, ap­pointed a student committee to look into the sit­uation. Armed with a partial list of the U niver­sity's real estate holdings (which the University,perhaps understandably, had refused to give SGany specific information about) the committee be­gan investigations which provided more evidencethat discrimination did exist in University ownedhousing and led the committee to conclude thatspecific instances of discrimination should be doc­umented. In the Autumn Quarter, six test caseswere conducted, involving five Negro studentsand eight apartments owned by the University,and in each case it was shown that Negroes wereunable to get, or in most cases even apply for,apartments which were available without ques­tion to whites. The results of the test cases in theform of signed and notarized statements by the partICIpants were presented to President Beadleand Vice-president for Administration RayBrown, who both conceded that the test casesmight be accurate since the University did prac­tice "strategic discrimination" in many of theproperties it owned in order to prevent their turn­ing all Negro. They added that this practice wasnot intended to be applied to Negro students, thatour test cases were just the result of some admin­istrative foul-up, and that the University's overallpolicy was one of achieving a :'stable integratedcommunity of high physical standards." Theystated, however, that the University felt it wouldbe unfair, indeed "immoral" for it to buy prop-erty in the neighborhood that was segregated andthen impose its own standards on the communityby ending discrimination in such property. Whenasked if the University would give students on aconfidential basis the relevant information con­cerning the University's renting policies in par­ticular buildings, or would at least describe the38overall plan that would lead to an end to discrim­inatory practices in University owned housing,the Administration refused, holding that businessinterests prevented them from doing so.se replied to these rationales of the Universityadministration by passing a resolution whichstated in part:"The 15th Assembly of SG declares its opposition tothe stated policy of the University administrationwhich condones and supports racial segregation inhousing. The University in pursuing its policy ofdiscrimination is giving moral and practical supportto other realtors, such as McKey and Poague, whoconspire to maintain segregation in housing as astanding policy. The argument that the University isjust maintaining the unfortunate policies of past own­ers appears to us to fall of its own weight. The argu­ment that the adoption by the University of "openoccupancy" in housing it owns would unfairly imposethe University's standards on the community does notseem reasonable. Residents of the community do nothave the right to legislate informally or otherwise apolicy of racial segregation in housing. The Univer­sity has no responsibility to put itself in the positionof giving practical backing to what it assumes to bethe prejudices of the community .... The argumentthat the University must preserve the neighborhoodmay be overcome by the obvious assertion that theleonard Friedman, PresidentUniversity may adopt any reasonable criteria whichis applied equally to all for accepting or rejectingprospective tenants. The irrational criterion of racedoes not insure that the "proper" tenants are selected.Instead, it perpetuates the unmitigated evil of dis­crimination, an evil wholly inconsistent with the aimsand ideals of an academic community."V 1I1V-1: H:.iCOHP1UNITY'S.SEGREGATED- UC POLt7Students "sit-in" on the fifth floor of the Administration Building.President Beadle replied by reiterating the Uni­versity's commitment to a stable integrated com­munity and citing the town houses and Universityapartments as examples of stable integration, buthe declined once again to elaborate any furtherupon the specific programs for integration thatthe University was pursuing. Dissatisfied with theUniversity's apparent practices and its unwilling­ness to release the information that would makepossible a real discussion of the issue, U of CCORE, in an action supported by SG, beganaround the clock sit-ins in front of President Bea­dle's office on the fifth floor of the Administrationbuilding that were to be continued until the Uni­versity changed its policies or entered into seriousnegotiations with student representatives.After 35 students had "sat-in" for over a day,representatives of UC CORE and SG met infor­mally with President Beadle. A statement writtenby Julian Levi at President Beadle's request wasissued for the consideration of both the studentsand the University administration, although nei­ther group was prepared to accept it at that timeas the basis for the start of new discussions. Thestatement read as follows:Discussion over the past days suggests the desirabil­ity of an exact reiteration of housing policies of theUniversity of Chicago:(1) All University-owned property is available tofaculty and students of the University of Chicagowithout any discrimination as to race, creed, or color.(2) The University is committed to a policy of non­discrimination in the operation of all its properties,subject to staging where appropriate and necessaryto achieve a stable interracial community of highstandards.42(3) In light of the material presented by CORE,and to implement these policies the University willform a faculty-student review board with appropriateaccess to all relevant information and data.Your cooperation and advice in the formation ofsuch a board will be welcome.UC CORE, in a meeting attended by over threehundred students the next night, refused to ac­cept the statement as a solution to the problem ofthe University's discriminatory practices, but didaccept it as the basis for reopening formal discus­sions with the administration. Pursuant to this de­cision, UC CORE reduced the number of "sit­inners" to five, pending President Beadle's accept­ance on behalf of the University of the "state­ment" and the beginning of formal discussions.President Beadle had meanwhile left for Califor­nia on a fund raising trip and the results of theCO RE meeting were mailed to him there. Therewas no reply until over a week later when Presi­dent Beadle returned to campus and invited rep­resentatives of UC CORE and SG to meet with43him in his office. At that time, President Beadlesaid that he could not accept the statement on be­half of the University, that he would not negotiatewith students, and that he could not commit theUniversity to releasing, on any basis, any of theparticular items of information that UC COREand SG had requested. This was particularly true,since he had appointed a faculty committee tostudy the problem and he would not act until thereport was in. In addition, he requested (this wason a Friday) that the sit-ins be stopped and thatUC CORE answer the request by noon on the fol­lowing Monday. UC CORE on Monday morningasked for a twenty-four hour delay so as to give thequestion more consideration, but at 1 pm Mon­day afternoon the University administration or­dered all the students who were sitting in to leaveon threat of automatic suspension. The studentsleft at the request of the UC CORE steering com­mittee, and an emergency meeting of UC COREwas called for that evening. President Beadle cameto the meeting and spoke to over three hundredstudents concerning the University's present poli­cies and its plans for the future. No solution wasreached, however, until President Beadle agreedin a discussion period afterward to a proposal putto him by UC CORE and SG which read as fol­lows: "Although the University has not asked for furtherdiscussion, CORE now proposes to the University ad­ministration the suggestion of broader discussion,hoping that community involvement will make a justand reasonable outcome more probable. CORE sug­gests that a new discussion of how to end discrimina­tion in University-owned real estate now be initiated."Participating in this discussion should be the Uni­versity administration CORE, Student Government,the faculty, the Hyde Park Council of Churches andSynagogues, the Urban League, Alderman LeonDespres, State Representative Abner Mikva, and theHyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference. Thiswould be a joint discussion, not a committee or com­mission. There would be no votes taken, and the onlyway a policy would be adopted is by the agreementof the University administration. While the sessionsof the discussion would not be public, each group isfree at any time to make whatever public statementsit sees fit. All participating groups should be per­mitted knowledge of all relevant information regard­ing the University's real estate policy, upon the un­derstanding that all information remain confidential."Following President Beadle's personal accept­ance of that proposal, UC CORE suspended the44sit-ins. SG at its next meeting passed another reso­lution on "Discrimination in University OwnedHousing" which follows in part:Declaration: The 15th Assembly of SG welcomesPresident Beadle's committment to discuss this com­plicated issue with students, faculty, and members ofthe community, all of whom are directly involved init, and to provide these discussions with the informa­tional background concerning the University's poli­cies that would make them meaningful. We deeplyregret that this committment could not be made onbehalf of the University. This committment to sin­cere and meaningful discussion, however laudable, and the report of the faculty committee will providethe basis for such a plan. We accept with pleasure theoffer to participate in the community discussions thatare about to be initiated.At the time this is being written the facultycommittee has not yet made its report and thecommunity group has only met once to discuss theissue in broad terms. The outcome is clearly up inthe air, but in general all parties agree that thereis now an appropriate structure for arriving at asolution satisfactory to all concerned.does not constitute a final solution to this problemany more than the appointment of a distinguishedfaculty committee to study this matter did previously.The University has shown a willingness to move fastertoward ending discrimination, but unfortunately thishas all too often been directed at the problems ofNegro students and faculty members rather than tothe whole community. The University administrationhas not developed any overall plan for an eventualend to discriminatory practices on the basis of race inproperties that it owns. We feel that to provide anyjustification for discriminatory practices at this timesuch a plan must be formulated and expressed pub­licly. We hope that the broad community discussions THE OTHER MAJOR SG ACTIVITY THIS YEAR WAS LESScomplicated, but nonetheless, very significant. Af­ter the difficulties with regard to publisher can­cellations and University Bookstore interferencehad decimated last year's SG discount book order­ing service, Jim Thomason, President of last year'sSG, and several other students formed the Inter­national Student Cooperative Union to act as apurchasing agent for books and other supplies forstudent run cooperatives which would be set up as45campus agents of ISCU. Although other campusagents have begun operations, the SG discountBookstore here has provided over 90% of ISCU'svolume to date. In its first five months of opera­tions, the SG bookstore sales were over $13,000and savings to students exceeded $2500. In addi­tion, a permanent stock of over $800 in books hasbeen created, providing greater service to the cam­pus. Recently the bookstore has added cameras,tape recorders, magnetic tape, and color (andblack and white) film to the list of items it canprovide at a 25% discount.Cooperative travel was also expanded this lastyear. In addition to the usual flights to Europeover the summer, SG ran a charter flight to NYCover Christmas interim which saved students over$1500. Over spring interim SG provided charterbus service to NYC on a round trip basis whichsaved students over $2000 and plans are beingmade to provide discount bus transportation toseveral cities in addition to NYC at the end of theacademic year.46PublicationsCAP AND GOWN48CHICAGOREVIEW49ch'icago .....aroonMaroon staff members in typical printshop posture.DURI:-\C THE AUTC:\I:--J QUARTER OF 1961, EDITORJay Greenberg announced the plans for daily pub­lication of the Chicago Maroon.

The University is a commu­nity of some 8,000 persons, all engaged in someform of activity and there is a great deal happen­ing everywhere.

Strozier, JT.,an undergraduate student in the College, in re­sponse to the First Annual Cap & Gown EssayContest.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WOMEN NEED NO INTRO­duction. They are special genus within a specialclass within a special phylum: square pegs withround bottoms struggling to fit into triangularholes. They are white and black, yellow andbrown, and often black and blue.U of C women wear clothes as if they werehomework assignments, assignments they haveflunked. They wear the pants in the Universityfamily, mostly to identify their sex: surrealisticShetland draperies, colonial levis-seeking inde­pendence, sweat pants, green-bag jerseys, accor­dion slacks, jodhpurs, knee-bump tights, and, onFeast -Days-dresses.Style, to a UC woman, carries only its literarysense. She wears her hair like a ceiling wears flytape: strapless sandals, hard-gym-like shoes, West­ern boots, Eastern socks, and Midwestern feet.140But the feminine facade is only a part of thetotal show. The pungent, swampy exuberance isthere, but must be exhumed to be believed. Sheis half-woman, half-freedom rider, half EdgarBurroughs, half-Jane, half-pleasure, half-pain. Shemust be accepted as she is, no questions asked, theway one accepts a dusty yo-yo connected to eightpendulum bobs.If she's speechless, she's sleepy; if she's moody,she's healthy; if she's healthy, she's overfed; if she'sunderfed, she shows it; if she's pale, she wearsmakeup; if she wears makeup, she doesn't go tothe UC, and if she doesn't go to the UC, she's beenfrightened away.141Chicago women are fiendishly alert, relentlesslystubborn, consistently convincing, usually wrong,but usually right. Only they in the world know asmuch about men as they do about women. Theydon't flirt; they champion causes. They don't loseat tennis to win in love; they play chess, and winto win. They play bridge because it's stimulating,London bridge because it's sophisticated. Theylike the worst movies because they're bad, and thecreepiest men because they're imported.They'd all rather read sonnets than wear bon­nets, or study Plato or NATO than pull taffy.They are mirthfully direct, and terrifying. Theyprovoke deduction, rather than seduction, and142talking to one of them is like trying to do thetwist on skates with a porpoise through a Braillescreen. But their background is wide, their out­look liberal, and their language the same. Vehe­mently, they favor the right wing or the left wing,and say to hell with the cockpit.The lady wears her sex like a Freudian slip, pre­ferring hard-hearted appraisals to un-analyticwhistles. She'd rather dance cheek-to-chin-hairthan smooch with a peach, rather sing risquelyrics than burp babies, rather march on the ad­ministration than march down the aisle. Saint orsinner, ceramicist or boycotter, she moves demure­ly like a jet flight past the waking gargoyles,through rain or shine, into the hearts of hercountrymen.It's difficult to know whether it's possible tolive with University of Chicago women, but it'sclear that we can't live without them. They'refascinating, so colorful that the colors sometimesmerge into gray. They'll all become poets andparamours and guitarists and senators, though it'sdoubtful a single one of them could pass PresidentKennedy's physical fitness test.They shouldn't be changed. Leave them alone.144On two chilly days andnights, November 13 and14, teams of camero men,technicions, directors andperformers invaded MandelHall, the Reynolds ClubLounges, and HutchinsonCourt to film on hour-longfolk concert.

Working for our neighborhood to be agood place to live in, a place we will be proud of,is everyone's job. If landlords and tenants are will­ing to meet each other at least half way, we willhave good buildings and a good neighborhood."In its constant emphasis on the need for prop­erty rehabilitation in the community, the Com­munity Conference is attempting to make clear thefollowing point: that demolition and new struc-Council of Chicago approved this major under­taking of conservation and removal of blight.As of December, 1961,76 percent of the totalnumber of land parcels had been acquired at acost of $18,000,000-the total clearance area is 101acres in 74 scattered sites with an estimated totalacquisition cost of $30,000,000.As the acquisition program has accelerated, at­tention is being turned to the code enforcementaspects of the Urban Renewal Program. In a pam­phlet published by the Hyde Park-Kenwood Com­munity Conference, giving suggestions for land­lords, tenants, and janitors regarding "respectiveresponsibilities and ways of getting along with eachother," plus a summary of the Chicago Housing tures will not, in themselves, be enough to bringabout the New Hyde Park that all envision. Afterthe Urban Renewal Project has been completed,the community will still look much the same as itdoes today: an area largely composed of middle­aged homes and apartments, many very badly rundown, others in need of less major repair, all need­ing constant maintenance and renewal. It mustbe remembered that the Urban Renewal Project,which has been so prominent in the community'Sthinking for the past six years, in reality only coversabout 20 per cent of the structures of Hyde Park­Kenwood. The other 80 per cent of the neighbor­hood's buildings will be untouched by the renewalactivity. This is the property which must be re-habilitated by individual initiative and coopera­tion. Many of the structures which will remain inthis 80 per cent category are large apartment dwell­ings, hotels, and rooming houses. The rehabilita­tion of these properties are distinctive. The re­mainder of the structures, excluding businessesand offices, are homes and small apartment build­ings. The problem of rehabilitation for these own­ers is different than for owners of large, multi-unitbuildings.It is this latter type of property owner that theHyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference ismost interested in reaching. This is not to detractfrom the importance of encouraging the multi-unitapartment owner or hotel owner to renew his prop­erty. It only emphasizes that the Conference, as acitizen-participation community organization, canand should approach the home owners who are thecore of the "people-oriented" community. The re­habilitation of their property, in the aggregate, iscrucial to the renewal of the entire area. Rehabili­tation generally is defined by the public as mod­ernization and remodeling. But the Housing Actof 1954, under which the Federal Governmentgranted the funds for the Hyde Park-Kenwoodprogram, uses the phrase "rehabilitation of exist- ing dwelling units" to cover all types of physicalreconstruction. This can mean a whole range ofactivities from mere "sprucing up" to a completerenovation of the entire interior and exterior of astructure.Never has the awareness of this need for reha­bilitation in the community been made so plainas through the overwhelming voluntary participa­tion of members of the community in setting upa rehabilitation demonstration house, to encourageand assist home and small apartment house ownersto rejuvenate and modernize their properties. Themethod used in this type of rehabilitation educa­tion is to "show" rather than "talk about" the"why," "how" and "wherefore" of rehabilitation.Through generous contributions in time, money,labor and materials from many different sources inand outside the community, the Conference ac­quired and rehabilitated an older home, similar tomany in the community, at 1215 East 54th Street.The finished renovated home-"Rehab House"-isnow open for inspection to the public, and work­ing through its block group structure, the Confer­ence has attempted to encourage making of surveysto determine which homes and small apartmentbuildings can and should be thus modernized.In the offices of the rehab staff at the RehabHouse, there is a map with pins designating eachbuilding for which rehabilitation is planned, inprocess or completed within the last year. Everymonth, more and more of these pins appear all overthe area. The Community Conservation Board andthe Conference, working in cooperation, have beencompiling pictures of homes in the area which havebeen attractively remodeled. As these pictures andstories are published periodically in the Hyde ParkHerald, the community is becoming more awareof the rehabilitation program and the CCB servicesavailable at the Rehab House.If you walk through the community, you can seethese homes and many more in an ever-wideningswath across the neighborhood. There is rubble,half-wrecked buildings and the many doors that show demolition in process; but walk down East50th Street on the south side of Farmers' Field andyou will see a charming row of 1890 townhouseswhich show a pride of ownership. Seven of thesehomes have been rehabilitated within the last yearor will be remodeled in the immediate future. Onyour walk, you might not be able to see more thanthe freshly painted exteriors or new front porches,but inside these homes interior decorating, newwiring and major remodeling of rooms have madeSouth side of Farmers' Field. The Rehab House.them consistently more attractive and desirable.Crossing the street diagonally, and passing St.Paul's Church and parish house, which was com­pletely rebuilt after a disastrous fire, there are moreoutstanding examples of rehabilitation. Many arepainting, refurbishing and rehabilitating as partof their feeling of confidence in the neighborhood.While specific institutions and various personsare entitled to take bows in this effort ".... tomaintain and improve a stable interracial com­munity of high standards," the main credit mustgo to the community as a whole which is behindthis rising tide of optimism and encouragementthat is needed for successful urban renewal.156157SportsLAr�R, L.A"TCRBoVS , L.ATtER.. 1---- S"�I REL.�AS� /111£�OM MY IH1"RA­MORAL COfoI-rRACT.'WAN" TO PLAY'VARSITY SALLLettermen:Ken DavidsonSteve FortgangHelmut LaumerPeter LearyLoran SpyersSOCCERWITH NO RETURNING LETTERMEN FROM THE 1960squad back, Coach Ron Wangerin's soccer teamstruggled gamely but unsuccessfully through aneight game season, emerging with only a singleforfeit victory.
