Small, spirited group stages
anti-draft demonstration
by Bill Johnson
Yesterday’s- snow, slush and
freezing temperatures did not
prevent about fifty Albany State
students and teachers from
attending the Anti-Draft
Demonstration at the Albany
Draft Induction Center. The
demonstration consisted chiefly
of student speakers and a chanting
circular procession in front of the
building.
The possiblity of entering the
building and making attempts to
prevent induction from taking
place was thwarted when
permission to enter the building
was denied on the grounds that it
was not public property.
Several’ students’ then spoke,
emphasizing the group’s intention
to take definite action against the
draft system. Speakers also stated
the disirability of helping draft
eligible individuals to avoid the
draft on the basis of strength in
numbers.
Although an overt vibrancy was
somewhat lacking in the
demonstration, a sense of unity
and spirit of protest was present
despite the smallness of the group
and the biting cold.

Dickey-end the war!” and one,
History students
raise tenure issue
by Sharon Philipson
A resolution was adopted _ this
afternoon at a meeting of the
History Student’s Association
regarding the granting of tenure to
Dr. Clara Tucker of the
University’s History Department.
The resolution reads as follows:
“In view of Dr. Clara Tucker’s
extensive service to the university
and outstanding record as an
undergraduate teacher, the H.S.A.
urges the University Council on
Promotion and Continuing
Appointments to recommend to
the President that she receive
tenure.”
According to Paul Wheeler,
Associate Dean of the College of
Arts and Sciences, Dr. Tucker has
not yet been denied tenure. Her
case is still under evaluaion. The
History Department
-recommended the granting of Dr.
Tucker’s tenure to the Arts and
Sciences Committee on
Promotion and Continuing
Appointment. The case was
considered: and the Departments
decision overruled.
The matter next goes to an
all-University Committee, the
University Council on Promotions
of Continuing Appointments and
will be reviewed within the near
future. Their recommendation
will be forwarded to President
Kuusisto for final approval.
President Kuusisto will then
forward his recommendation to
Chancellor Gould of the State
University System who will then
give it to the Board of Trustees.
The decisions of Gould and the
trustees are usually in accord with
those of the President. According
to the Faculty Handbook, tenure
should be granted on the basis of
teaching, scholarship, and service.
Dr. H. Peter Krosby, Chariman
of the History Department stated
that in the past the granting of
tenure was frequently based on
teaching alone. Today, both
teaching and publication are being
used as criteria. However, an
exception was made by the
Department in Dr. Tucker's case.
On the basis of faculty opinion
and student evaluation, her
teaching has been considered
excellent.
All students who are concerned
with the granting of tenure to Dr.
Tucker are urged to sign the
petitions which are being
circulated by the HSA.
two three, four, end the
mother-fucking war’? were
chanted to an amused crowd of
Albany lunch-hour citizens
emerging from the boredom of
their offices and businesses. Many
of the crew-cut personnel of the
center gazed glumly from behind
the locked doors of the building
and made occasional remarks of
bewilderment to each other.
The marchers were aided in
spirit by Paula Rosenberg, a
guitarist who sang “The Times are
A-Changin.’’? Although the
turnout was small and the action
lasted less than a half-hour, it was
an admirable effort on the part of
the organizers and participants in
informing the “silent majority”
that not everyone blindly accepts
decrees in which they were not
allowed to help formulate.
Senate ignores war;
tense meeting
by Vicki Zelden
__ The University Senate (and that
it is the University Senate was
assured today as the Senate’s
Agenda was amended to read
University Senate instead of
Faculty Senate) actually made
two decisions on Dec. 15, 1969!
The new calendar was
introduced at this meeting. As of
fall 1970, classes will begin Thurs.
Sept. 3, and classes will end Mon.,
Dec. 14. Final exams will extend
from Dec. 15 to the 22nd.
Intersession will start on Dec. 23
to Jan. 10 Spring semester classes
will commence Tues. Jan. 19.
Spring recess will start at 5:00 pm
Sat., Apri! 3 and end Sun.. April
11. Classes for the Spring term
will end 10:00 pm Mon., May 3,

“feasible.”
The first decision that was
reached was concerning a new
system for the scheduling of
classes. After lengthly debate
during which the proposal was
unsuccessfully amended
approximately. four times, and
tabled~and untabled, a decision
was finally reached. The proposal
as presented to the Senate was
approved intact.
The gist of the new schedule is
that on Mon., Wed., Fri. 10 blocks
of 50 min. classes will be held. On
Tues., and Thurs. 6 blocks of 75
min classes will be held. This
means that a student can either
take a course that meets Mon.,
Wed., Fri. for 3-50 min:tte sittings
or take a course that aeets on
Tues. and Thurs. for 2-75 min.

the course is offered both days).

the new schedule were stated as
being 1) to maximize choice of
course availibility for student 2)
to provide a fair and considerate
teaching schedule for individual
faculty members including
sufficient uninterrupted time
blocks 3) to make economic use
of facilities.
An attempt on the part of
jstudent senator Jack Schwartz to
have a proposal placed on the
agenda met with considerable
dissension. Mr. Schwartz wants
the Senate to “condemn the past
and present policies of the U.S. in
the region of Southeast Asia, and
in particular, the nation of
Vietnam. And to denounce the
immoral violation of international
peace and the unjust interference
with the Vietnamese people’s
tight to self-determination,”
Schwartz feels that “the Senate
body is obligated toward such
action, in its capacity as the major
Tepresentative body and the
appropriate channel of expression
for the views of both students and
faculty in the University
community.”
However the Senate felt
otherwise, and refused to even
place the topic on the agenda by
ruling both Mr. Schwartz and his
proposal out of order. The
executive committee of the
Senate which is in charge of
drawing up the agenda did not
after evaluation deem this issue as

Bulb sale
questioned
by Tom Clingan
Nearly everyone on campus
Knows of the General Electric
strike, now in its eighth week.
Currently, federal mediation is
being utilized. At stake is the
usual factor—wages. Each side has
already accused the other of a
lack of faith in negotiation, and
the discussions have suffered as a
result.
Several student groups have
sided with the workers in their
plight, either by sympathy or for
private gain. This campus has
recently seen some action in
support of the strikers, most
notably the present fast.
In the midst of this
controversy, the State University
Bookstore has placed General
Electric flashcubes on sale at
$1.19 per package. List price is
about $2.
The sale has moved some
students to inquire into the policy
behind this. move. Mr. Bob
Dinovo, purchasing manager for
the Bookstore, said that several
people have approached him on
this matter. His answer is straight
forward: the Bookstore orders
five months in advance. The bulbs
were the only GE item in the
53,000 items the store stocks.
They were in stock and paid for
by the time the strike began.
The Bookstore has GE
flashcubes for $1.19 per package.
Should you boycott them? Most
students aren’t, since there only
four cases left, and they’re going
fast. Hurry, or there'll be none
left to boycott.

admissions
to close in January
Frank G. Krivo, director of
admissions at State University of

announced that, with the
exception of those from residents
in the Capital District, freshman
applications for the fall 1970
semester will close January 1.
Mr. Krivo stated that the
decision to close was based on the
fact that the university has
received approximately a 16%
increase in freshman applications
for the Class of 1974. Additional
facilities originally scheduled for
completion next fall will not be
ready in time to accommodate
students.
The admissions director added -
that the problem is most crucial in
the housing area. There is a
University Council policy

and unmarried to reside either in
university housing or with their
parents. Accordingly, most
freshmen, outside of

Viet moratorium committee
announces December plans
The Vietnam Moratorium
Committee has announced that
one of its major efforts in
December will be activity by
students in their home towns
during Christmas vacation.
Activities suggested include
canvassing neighborhoods,
distributing leaflets to shoppers,
organizing of high school
students, sending delegations to
elected officials, and holding vigils
or processions on Christmas eve,
one of the three Moratorium days
this month.
Sam Brown, co-coordinator of
the Vietnam Moratorium
Committee, said, “It would
indeed be a tragedy to miss the
opportunity to carry the anti-war
movement from our university
communities to our home towns.
The work necessary to end the
war in Vietnam cannot be
restricted to the areas where we
have already been active. We must
Agnew’s press attack analyzed
by Bob Warner
Vice President Spiro Agnew’s
attack on the press was the
subject of a panel discussion last
Thursday night in the CC
Assembly Hall. The panelists
were: Richard Kendall of the
History Department, Robert
Norton of the Rhetoric and Public
Address Department, William
Rowley of the English
Department, formerly a reporter
and editor for the Knickerbocker
News, and Donald Decker,
newsman for
Schenectady. The’ discussion was
moderated by Mrs. Kathy Kendall
of the RPA Department.
The panél sought to draw a
conclusion on the original
question, “‘Agnew: call to
responsibility or a flirtation with
fascism?” The consensus of the
panel seemed to be that the
Nixon-Agnew Administration is
flirting with fascism.
Norton believes that Agnew’s
speech on Nov. 14 that blasted
the news media will be
detrimental to the country in the
long run. He questioned the
necessity to reform the news
media that Agnew has asked for.
Norton also explained why
Nixon picked such a man as
Agnew to run with him. Nixon’s
public relations polls back in early
1968 showed that he would run
best without any running mate.
Therefore, at the Republican
WRGB-TV *in®
Convention, Nixon chose a
“nothing” to run on his ticket,
who would not hurt him in the
elections. Now, that “nothing” is
Vice-President (Mr. Norton cited
as his source AN AMERICAN
MELODRAMA). The President
uses Agnew as a “lightning rod”
for dissent, he said, or as Eugene
McCarthy puts it, “Agnew is
Nixon’s Nixon.”
Decker of WRGB explained his
position next. He quoted James
Reston of the N.Y. Times by
saying that “Agnew has the
courage of Nixon’s convictions.”
Mr. Decker is glad that the
Vice-President made the speech if
he sincerely wants the press to be
objective and nothing more. The
electronic media should be
responsible, because “‘most people
are getting most of their news
from television.” He is not
altogether sure, however, that
Agnew’s motives are actually what
Agnew claims them to be. But
Decker does not forsee any
reactionary tide following the
speech in the near future.
Decker thinks that Nixon is
pushing Agnew to make these
comments. One of the dark
incidents in Richard Nixon’s life is
cited by Decker as a reason for his
behavior. In 1962, after Nixon
lost the Gubernatorial race in
California, he made the now
famous remark that the press
“wouldn’t have Nixon to kick
around anymore.” He has never
Kuusisto comments on
advisement, housing
by Judy Baldasarri
At Monday’s press conference
with students President Kuusisto
commented on several questions
raised last week. He informed
students that in regard to the
problem of academic advisement,
Dean Morris of the University
College is willing to meet with any
student or groups of students.
The very pressing problem of
courses being closed out, was
mentioned. Admitting that the
primary responsibility of the
university is to the students, the
President admitted that there
were, however, several
administrative difficulties. Besides
the ever present budgetary
problems, the university has po
way of anticipating a shift ‘in
course interest and popularity
among the student body thereby
causing inadequacies and many
closed sections.
Received from the Office of
Management and Planning was the
information that a plan will be
devised and effected over the
Christmas vacation to solve the
problem of commuter versus
resident parking areas. Also raised
at last week’s meeting was the
question of the University renting
United Traction Buses to
supplement the University bus
system. President Kuusisto stated
that although the rental cost of
these buses per year was
enormous it is considerably less
than the cost would be to operate
and maintain University-owned
buses. Therefore the choice is-an
economically feasible one.
Various questions concerning
housing were directed to Dr.
Thorne. In regard to on campus
housing ‘contracts, Dr. Thorne
continued on page 2
forgiven the press for their attacks
on him.
Rowley is “against Agnew all
the way.” He calls Agnew’s call
for responsibility, irresponsible.
Agnew, as Rowley sees it, is
asking for more than fair news
broadcasting; the Vice-President is
asking the press to spout the
government’s line on important
issues like Vietnam.
Kendall said that Agnew is
more dangerous than Senator
Joseph McCarthy, because he
actually believes his own “bunk,”
while the late senator did not. The
professor fears that Agnew’s
words to the press were threats,
Kendall also feels that Agnew is
flirting with fascism. He said that
this is the 1950’s all over again,
and pointed out that Pat
Buchanan, who was an, who was
an Anti-New Dealer of the
McCarthy Era, wrote Agnew’s
Nov. 14 speech. Kendall describes
Nixon and his friends as
“‘conservative paranoids” who
envision liberals as the “Eastern
Establishment people who
subtlely conspire against
America.”
Kendall also stated that
according to the First
Amendment of the Constitution,
the press must be free, not
neutral. Therefore, the press is
entitled to interpret the news as it
understands it. In -contrast,
Decker said that the printed press
should be free, but television must
be impartial, simply because most
people receive news from it.
However, what is considered
impartial is a moot point.
‘Take the Moratorium Home for
Christmas’.”
The Vietnam Moratorium
Committee recently sent a special
memo to its more than 3,000
campus organizers urging them to
devote their attention to this
effort. Students were encouraged
to contact other students’ from
their home towns now on other
campuses.
Spokesmen for the Moratorium
pointed out that many students
will return to their towns again in
January for between semester
break and could expand upon the
initial December activity then.
Thus anti-war sentiment could be
solidified or peace groups
organized in many areas which
have seen little anti-war activity to
date.
On December 24th, activities
centering on the Christmas theme
of “Peace on Earth” are planned.
A group of prominent clergymen
is being organized to relate the
-Moratorium to normal Christmas
religious activities. Among the
events which will take place are
vigils, processions preceeding
church services, caroling which
will emphasize “Peace on Earth,”
and special church services.
A group of eminent clergy are
in the process of forming a
national clergy committee to
sponsor and promote peace
(programs in churches across the
country this Christmas.
Many community groups as
well as church groups, sponsor
special services and activities
around the Christmas season.
Members of these groups should
be encouraged to:
a. Initiate “Presents for Peace,”
the giving of presents on a peace
theme, books, articles, and posters
about the war. This can also be
applied organizationally by
donating money to Peace Groups
from a self-imposed tithe, or by
holding fund raising activities for
local or national organizations
who work for peace.
b. Send ‘Peace’
Cards,
c. Use the event of Christmas
Caroling to also sing peace songs.
d. Suggest that groups invite
soldiers to their homes for
Thanksgiving and Christmas
dinner, sponsor collections for
Veterans Hospitals or a general
project for assisting the families of
soldiers who must spend this
Christmas in Vietnam.
e. Churches in the community
should plan to hold
interdenominational services and
candle light vigils on the evening
of the 24th.

also be considered for positions
on departmental committees. This
action was taken in recognition of
the desire of several non-majors to
work within the Department of
Rhetoric and Public Address.
The press was not admitted to
the departmental meeting held on
Tuesday to discuss the
controversy regarding the
selection of a new department
chairman. This meeting was open
to the department and majors
only, thus denying admission to
several vitally concerned
individuals.
Informed sources have told the
ASP that little was accomplished;
the meeting centered upon a
discussion with Dean Perlmutter
over budgetary reasons for the
denial of funds for the hiring of a
new Department head.

Breaking Bureaucracy
by Al Senia
Breaking Bureaucracy will attempt to answer students’ questions concerning University affairs. Questions
can be submitted by placing them in the ASP Classified Ad Box located in the Campus Center on the
Information Desk.
Q: How does one go about getting birth control
pills on campus?
A: Well, the first place you can try is the
infirmary. If you’re not married, you'll probably
have a counselling session and then get referred to
Planned Parenthood or a private physician for
further advice. If you’re a freshman or someone the
staff considers to be somewhat immature, you had
better have some pretty strong reasons for wanting
the pill. Dr. Hood stated that Student Health
Service has found that often young coeds are under
pressure by peer groups or boyfriends, and so the
staff will “work diligently” to let the girl realize the
ramifications of her proposed request.
In any case, Dr. Hood said the pill is not
dispensed on campus because the infirmary staff is
composed mostly of interns and
pediatricians-in-training. Since the pill’s total
harmlessness has not been proven and follow-up
tests must be given, the Health Service isn’t geared
to the service.
Dr. Hood concluded: “We are very sympathetic
to the idea of contraceptives generally. We try to
help anybody who comes in here to get the help
they are seeking. Also, we are very willing to talk
with groups of students at any time to talk about
any problems, but particularly problems on
contraceptives or drugs.”
One further note: if you’re a married woman
taking the pill and under a doctor’s care, and if you!
need some pills to tide you by, the infirmary will
write you a prescription until you can get hold of
your physician.
Q: Under the Pass-No credit system, who
interprets the letter grad—the professor or the
Registrar?
Pass-No_ Credit
authorized by President Kuusisto (and some people
are having second thoughts), the professor’s
PERSONAL records can consist of anything he
wants, But the mark sent to the Registrar’s office is
strictly Pass-No Credit. In other words, there are no
“secret grades” available later.
Q: What exactly is being done about the person
who burned the hut on the Academic Podium?
A: Dean Chesin said that the whole problem was
referred to the Student Judiciary Committee last
week. A hearing was held in private (in accordance
with standing policy), and the Committee has
forwarded their recommendation of disciplinary
action to the Office of Student Affairs. As of Dec.
10, no action had been taken against the person. He
has also refused to make any kind of a statement on
his motives for burning the hut. Dean Chesin said
that when he apprehended the student, he claimed
he “did it as a lark.”
It should be noted that if the builders of the huts
had chosen to bring arson charges against the
student, the Albany Police and courts would have
stepped in and the incident would have been
brought into the open. The group; however, chose
not to press charges.
Due to increased costs of printing and increased
circulation, we find it necessary to increase oug
advertising rates.
Our new rates are as follows:
SA funded groups and non-profit
organizations--$ 1.00/col ii 5
All other student groups-$1,50/col in.
Local advertising-$2.50/col in.
These rates will be effective as of January 1, 1969.

by Fred Waite
Have you ever seen a‘small red
golf cart whizz by you between
Dutch Quad and the Academic
Podium? If you haven’t met its
driver you have missed meeting
one of the most interesting and
good-humored people on_ this
campus.
He is Dwight Hull, who
conquered the overwhelming
misfortune of his cerebral palsy
condition, and will receive his
degree in January. His previous
history is filled with trying
experiences worthy of relating to
those of you who haven’t ever
read -his small autobiography
which he hands you if you talk to
him.
Dwight’s first eight years of
education he received from two
tutors. He then went to a regular
high school and graduated in the
normal four year period in 1961.
Next he went to Albany Business
College where he learned
accounting in which he did quite
well. His problem was that his
mother had to do his writing for
him. He quickly realized that if he
continued in this manner he
would never be able to put to
practical use what he had learned.
He stayed home for a year before
he was admitted to SUNY at
Albany.
When Dwight was a junior in
high school he had contacted the
Division of Vocational
Rehabilitation, but they had told
him for three or four years that
his case was too involved to be
helped by them.
Frustrated at himself and
dissatisfied with the treatment by
the D.V.R. he typed a letter to
senior asks
in finding job
Governor Rockefeller in
December of 1964. Much to
Dwight’s amazement, the
following week he was called on
the phone by a high official at
D.V.R. who made an appointment
with him.
Dwight was sent to Kingston
where for eight weeks he was
evaluated at a workshop. The
evaluation consisted of attempting
many simulated jobs entailing
hand manipulation like putting
TBM pins in slots, tearing open
packages and dumping the
contents into a bin, and sanding
furniture. Next Dwight went to
New York City for a week of
mental testing which finally
resulted in his acceptance at this
university in the September of
1965.
Mr. Hull will graduate in
January with a B.S. degree with
his major in Sociology and minor
in English. He is a very ambitious
young man and would like to
prove to himself and others that
he could work at a job and
support himself.
Dwight feels that he would be
most adept in the position of
either counselor, supervisor, or
researcher. He wants to use what
he has learned in college and put
it to practical use. Dwight thinks
that some of you might have
parents or relatives who might be
in a position to find such a job. If
anyone knows, of any job
opportunities which are suited to
Dwight’s abilities please write him

Peace Corps representatives
conduct campus interviews
by Dave Peck
“The Peace Corps seeks to
assist mankind in the struggle
against the oppressions of disease,
hunger, and lack of education. It
seeks to promote peace through
the improvement of cross-cultural
communication.”
Jack Vaughn
Former Director of the Peace Corps
‘Peace Corps representatives
were on campus this week
interviewing people and speaking
about the Corps. Bill O’Keefe,
who served in Ethiopia, and
Francis K. Toffa, a citizen of
Togo, were the Peace Corps’
representatives.
O’Keefe, who was a student at
SUNY Buffalo, worked in
Ethiopia for two years. During his
first year he taught English to
elementary school children, the
native language of Ethiopia being
Amharic. In his second year he
worked as an editorial and
administrative assistant in the
Ministry of Agriculture.
Toffa is from the former
French trusteeship of Togo, a
small country in French West
Africa. In Togo he worked with
the Peace Corps for his
government. Peace Corps
Volunteers taught high school
English, helped develop
communities, and constructed
schools in Togo. Toffa feels that
without Peace Corps’ aid Togo
could not have progressed as far as
it has.
There has been a great deal of
controversy in the past few years
about Volunteers expressing their
political views. The official policy
allows them to express themselves
on American politics as long as it
doesn’t take away from their
effectiveness as Corps members.
They are expected to remain
apolitical about the affairs of the

host country.
The view that the Peace Corps
is actually an arm of the C.I.A.
was discredited by O’Keefe on the
basis that the volunteer works
with the peasants and not with
the government.
Service in the Peace Corps will
not void a member’s
responsibilities to the draft. Most
draft boards will give a volunteer a
2-A occupational deferment, but
when they return to the United
States they are once again eligible
for the draft.
Liberal arts majors are needed
to teach, and half of the
volunteers are employed as
teachers. Non-college graduates
are also needed, as machinists,
farmers, carpenters, and
electricians are also in demand.
One fifth of the Corps members
work in rural or urban community
development and another fifth
work in health and agricultural
fields.
President Kennedy created the
Peace Corps by executive order on
March 1, 1961. In the past eight
years over 40,000 people have
been in the Peace Corps. By the
end of this year there should be
over 10,000 volunteers in 60 host
countries. The average age of a
volunteer is 24.6 years. There are
121 who are older than 50 and
114 under 21. Sixty-seven percent
are men, and twenty-three percent
are married.
There are five basic
requirements to join the Peace
Corps. You must 1) be a United
States citizen, 2) be at least 18
years, 3) have no dependents
under 18, 4) serve with your
spouse if you're married, and 5)
never have. worked for an
intelligence agency, whether
military or civilian. The term is
24-27 months, including training.
A volunteer receives an
allowance of $75 a month which
is kept in the United States until
he leaves the Corps. He also
receives a monthly living
allowance ranging from $3640
depending on “adequate” living
costs in the host gountry.
After leaving the Peace Corps
56.3% of the members are
employed, 37% return to school,
and 6% become housewives or
enter the military.
The Peace Corps’ presence on
campus was co-sponsored by the
International Student Association.

by Ken Stokem
At last Thursday’s Central
Council meeting Lenny Kopp and
Jeannette Beckerman introduced
a proposal that will further
increase the effectiveness of the
student representatives to
University Senate.
This proposal urges University
Senate to open at least one
position on every Senate Council
and Committee to the student
representatives on University
Senate. It was hoped that this
innovation would increase the
students’ knowledge of Senate
activities. The motion was passed
17-05.
In addition, Council passed a
proposal (20-0-2) that will set
aside its second and fourth
meetings of the spring semester
for the sole purpose of reviewing
and perhaps deciding on the
proposed amended Student
Association Constitution.
This constitution was proposed
last semester by Constitutional
Revisions Committee (CRC) and
was brought up at several Council
meetings last year.
The bill passed last night was
proposed by Ken Stokem,
chairman of Constitutional
Revisions, and introduced by Vic
Looper and Lenny Kopp to
alleviate this situation and
specifically provide these two
sessions of Council to deal
exclusively with the Proposed
Constitution.
It was felt by Stokem that the
important reforms proposed in
the amended constitution must be
decided upon as soon as possible.
These reforms encompass such
things as direct, popular election
of the Student Association
President, the size and
representation of Council and its
Commissions, impeachment and
recall, the judiciary, and the
amending procedure.
If Council acts on the proposed
Amended Constitution at these
meetings, it is conceivable that it
might be put to referendum in
time for the MYSKANIA
elections.
In further action, Council
tabled a- bill introduced by
Jeannette Beckerman on Faculty
Senate Election.
The bill proposed that eighteen
of the twenty-two student
representatives to University
Senate be elected at the same time
as MYSKANIA and class officers.
The other four representatives
were to be elected in the Fall as
soon as deemed possible by
Election Commission.
Certain complications and
inequities were pointed out, that
lead to the tabling of this bill until
it could be looked into further.
“Guidelines”
addition noted
The following official action
has been added to STUDENT
GUIDELINES, 1969-70 (Part IV,
Standards of Student Conduct,
6.5):
Disciplinary Removal from
Residence: Removes the
resident student from
university-operated residence
is on either a permanent or
temporary basis. This is a more
stringent action, taken in
response to repeated violations
of. university residence
regulations. In the event that
this action is for a stated period
of time, the student may apply,
at the end of this period, for
housing in university residence
halls. Specific regulations in
relatioff to residence halls may
also be included. Note: If this
student is under 21 years of age,
the parent or guardian will be
informed of this action.

TAKING YOUR
CONVICTIONS
WITH YOU?
We've ali demonstrated in Central Park and Washington.
We've all demonstrated in the sanctuary of the
University community. But, who has gone into
Silent Majority Country? What about Geneva, Elmira, and
Penn Yan, New York? And Topeka, Kansas.
Here the issue may not be the War.
It will be the “Protestors.”
We want to show we’re not Agnew’s “rotten apples.”
We're the kids who grew up in the neighborhood.
And we're going back there to work with them,
to talk with them . . . our neighbors
in Geneva, Elmira, Penn Yan and Topeka.
This Christmas the Moratorium asks the students from
those thousands of American communities who have
never seen the children of peace, heard a peace song,
or participated in any peace activity to
join their brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers
for a quiet, thoughtful observance on Christmas Eve.

ON FILM
by michael nolin and diana dalley
A quick look at the theatre ads
tells us that this is another of
those “There is nothing playing at
the movies” weeks. Films in the
Albany area range from “Fanny
Hill” to the twelfth week of
“Easy Rider.” Parents complain
there are no family pictures; film
buffs that there are no truly
artistic films being made today.
Who is to blame? I submit that
although a lot of fault belongs to
the major studios and local
exhibitors, the majority of it must
be. squarely placed on the
shoulders of those who are
complaining, the movie-going
public.
In the 30’s- and 40’s major
studios ground out over thirty
features a year; that number has
dwindled to less than twenty for
- the past decade and things look
less than bright for the 70’s. It is
simply not profitable to make
more.
In recent years, family groups
have leveled a great deal of
criticism at the American film
industry. Just last month
television station WTEN ran a
five-minute editorial concerning
the shameful lack of family
pictures. In their statement they
singled out Hellman’s Center
theater for playing ‘“‘The
WIEN on the moral and artistic
values of the film (they are
practically nil), I hardly think
putting the blame on theater
management is fair.
When the Center Theater first
opened, it publicly announced
itself as “the family theater.” For
the first two months they played
nothing but “G”’ and occasionally
“M” rated pictures. At the end of
this period they were in the red,
yet “The Libertine” made money.
Where were all these .loud-
mouthed people? Perhaps
watching “I, a Woman - Part II” at
some other theater. It seems to
me that if these people were really
concerned about family
entertainment the least they could
do is patronize the General
Audience films when they play.
It is the same with intellectuals
and self-made film critics. Cinema
Art Theaters used to play the very
best of foreign films (i.e. “Knife
in the Water,” “Repulsion,”
“Shop on Main Street”); now
theirs are just classy names for sex
houses. Why? It is more profitable
to play sex; today’s movie-goers
would rather see flesh than art.
For example, “Goodbye,|
Columbus” bombed horribly at
Troy’s Cinema Art, yet “I Am
Curious (Yellow)” was sold out
for four weeks straight. It is not
Libertine.” While I agree with
Have You Heard?
Richie Havens
is coming!
Saturday, Feb. 7, 1970
Sponsored by the classes
of 1971 and 1972
just bowery bums or the decaying
dregs of society who are attending
CURIOUS and other such films,
but a cross-section of the
film-going public.
Take for example just one
company, Twentieth Century
Fox. Recently they released two
films, “The Undefeated” and “A
Walk With Love and Death.” The
former is a “G” rated vehicle in
which John Wayne, as a Union
officer, and Rock Hudson, as a
Confederate officer, form an
unlikely alliance and friendship. It
is extremely well done, has plenty
of action, and the only hint at sex
is the slightly too long petticoat
of one of the sweet innocent
maidens. ‘‘The Undefeated”
played for one almost
audienceless week in Albany.
“A Walk With Love and Death”’
is rated “R’’; it makes a definite
effort to be an artistic success. It
is done with the typical old time
grace and style of its director
John Huston; there are no quick
cuts and numerous dissolves.
There is one sequence which is
simply a masterpiece. The hero, a
wandering poet on his way to sea,
meets a noble woman and asks her
to be his patroness. The girl (who,
by the way, is Huston’s daughter)
has him kneel and says, “Yes, I
will be your lady.” Giving him her
scarf she continues, “let this be
your token of my patronage.”
The hero, rising, answers, “I will
wear it always in your honor.”
* The film then traces their ensuing
romance.
Not too many people have seen
“A Walk With Love and Death”
because not too many theaters
have: booked it. In Albany,
nobody has seen it simply because
it is not box office—meaning that
the people who have been asking
for this kind of film will not see it.
LET IT
BLEED
by Ray Katz
“Well, we all need someone we
can cream on/and if you want to,
well you can cream on me.”
Nobody argues the genius and
the talent of the Beatles. In pop
music they are the major
innovative force, barring none.
But it is surely not the Beatles
who are to be considered as the
embodiment of rock music. That
is a role left to the Rolling Stones.
Rock is an art form whose main
ingredient, whose main
component, is energy. It is not the
energy supplied by electric
amplifiers and sound systems, but
the energy that is fed into these
electronic music makers by the
musicians. And nowhere else can
more raw force, more rock and
roll, be found than on a Stones
telease.
The Beatles laid the foundation
for rock music. True. But after a
foundation is put down, someone
has to build something on it, to
make that foundation worthy of
supporting something. And it is
the Stones who are those builders.
“And if you ever catch the
midnight rambler/I'll stick my
knife right down your throat/and
baby, it hurts.”
Until just about a year ago
nobody even got felt up in
Beatleland. Oh, sure, teenage girls
ran away at 5 a.m. and Paul
propositioned you to do it in the
road, but did anyone ever even get
a tongue in their mouth? Nope.
“I laid a divorcee in New York
City/I had to put up some kind of
a fight/the lady, she then dressed
me up in roses/she blew my nose
and then she blew my mind.”
Rock had its fling with studio
electronics, Indian influence slept
with 16-track tape machines, and
the offspring produced was studio
tock, capable of being produced
in any recording studio in the
world, but nowhere live and on
stage. Butthen John and Paul, in
all their infinite wisdom, saw fit
to lead all those aimless musicians
back to real music, good old hard
rock and roll (let us all forget
what Peter Townsend said at least
a year and a half before “Lady
Madonna”—and_ I paraphrase—“I
thing it’s time for us to return to
the old days of rock, those crazy
insane days of Chuck Berry and
Elvis Presley”).
So musicians returned to the
basics. The moogs and the mixers
were junked and everyone picked
up their mouth harps, and even
steel guitars, dusted them off and
made some beautiful sounds.
And when it comes right down
to it, down to the basics of raw
hard rock, who plays it like it
should be played? Beatles or
Stones?
“T said love, sister/it’s just a kiss
away/it’s just a kiss away.”

The Beatles ramble too much.
In their early years, i-e.,
pre-REVOLVER-they really had
no definite style. They went from
choir boy sweetness to white
Chuck Berry to poor Everly
Brothers imitations. Yet at the
same time the Stones picked one
style, hard rock, and stuck to it,
developed it and refined it. It was
only when the Stones let
themselves be side-tracked into
studio antics on SATANIC
MAJESTIES, which is still a
wonderful album, that they lost
ground to the Beatle boys. Yet if
you really want to see classic
development of a rock group’s
work, starting with their “most
significant” album, through their
latest work—i.e., the development
of a particular style and its
tefinement—the Stones are a
marvelous, and the best, example
around.
If REVOLVER was when the
Beatles came of age, then its
cousin in the realm of the Stones
was AFTERMATH. It was here
that the Stones were able to do
diverse types of things and yet tie
it all together so neatly and ever
so tightly. There was their tour de
force, “Paint it Black;” their fling
with country on “High and Dry;”
the ballad of “Lady Jane;” the
pure rock and roll of “It’s Not
Easy;” and “Think;” and the
bluesy symphony of
raunch—“Going Home.”
Now trace this through to
BEGGARS’. BANQUET:
“Sympathy for the Devil;’ the
country of “Dear Doctor;” “No
Expectations,” the ballad; the
rock of: “Street Fighting Man;”
and the bluesy sex of “Stray Cat
Blues.”
These similarities are more
obvious on LET IT BLEED; just
match them up. There’s “Gimme
Shelter;” a countrified “Honky
Tonk Woman” called “Country
Honk;” “Love in Vain” is the
ballad; “Live With Me” and
“Monkey Man” are two examples
of the pure-bred rock and roll the
Stones excell at; and there’s
“Midnight Rambler,” their hymn
to a rapist, that matches “Going
Home.”
Three albums. All three leading
to the others. All three lending to
the others. This is musical
development.
“T got nasty habits/I take tea at
three.../my best friend, he shoots
water rats/and feeds them to his
geese/don't you think there’s a
place for you/in between the
sheets.../Come on now honey
don’t you want to live with me.”
I like what the Stones do, I like
what they say. And most of all, I
like how they say it. They are the
epitome of a group that’s
together. Each man picks at his
instrument, never confusing things
with needless solos or extra notes
jammed in. The music is beautiful.
Jagger’s singing, which is a musical
instrument in itself, is great.
Together, he and Keith Richard
comprise a songwriting team as
good as any other, including
Lennon and McCartney.
It’s five individuals producing
one collective voice, a voice that is
probably the most significant, and
even the best in rock and roll
today.

THE
ASP
State vs. Hartwick
Tonite 8:30
by Jay Marshall
Hartwick, one of the top-rated
Dane Quintet’s Fine Defense Whips Marist,66-64
In a complete reversal of form,
the Albany State basketball team
edged a tough Marist squad 66-64
last Thursday night. The margin
of victory was provided by center
Steve Sheehan’s field goal with
two seconds remaining in the
game.
From the opening tap-off, it
was evident to all those present
that this was not the same Albany
team which was easily defeated by
Plattsburgh last Tuesday. Marist,
which scored over 100 points in
its previous outing, was stymied
by a tight, aggressive defense.
Albany’s hustling play all over the
court more than made up for
Marist’s edge in rebounding.
Junior forward Allan Reid led the
Danes in rebounding with twelve
and chipped in with eleven points.
Guards Jack Adams and Jim
Masterson effectively pressured
Marist, causing many turnovers.
Offensively, Albany was led by
forward Jack Jordan’s twenty-five
points. Scoring on shots from all
over the court. Jordan’s point
total equaled his performance in
the season’s opener at Williams.
As a team Albany shot 40 per
cent from the floor, quite in
improvement over the team’s
shooting against Plattsburgh and
Stony Brook.
The hero of the game for State
was the center, Sheehan. With the
score tied and less than two
minutes left in the game, Albany
decided to play for the last shot.
With seven seconds left, Sheehan
shot and missed from the corner
but grabbed his own rebound and
put in the game-winning basket.
The junior transfer from Hudson
Valley C.C. scored eleven points
while battling the taller Marist
players under the boards.

Victory over Potsdam
The Albany State varsity
swimming team traveled to SUC
Potsdam Saturday and left with
their first victory. as a varsity
team, a very tight 54-49 decision.

only able to win third place in the
50 yard freestyle as Dragich
contributed another fine
performance. Pete Gerstenhaver
finished second in the 200 yard
individual medlay while Pete
Klara won the diving event with a
varsity and pool record of 204.55

Sports Hash
by Dave Fink
Inevitably’, racial intolerance, which has been nurtured in our nation
for many years, has found its way to the university, and in one major
instance, to the athletic field.
_ Ever since the black man has begun to compete first on the
intercollegiate level and then in the varsity areria, he has been made to
feel that society is doing him a favor by letting him play ball. He has
been met with an attitude which says that sport has “made” him, so
to speak, and hence, he should do as he is told and nothing more. This
treatment no longer applies.
The primary point is that at this juncture in our history, we are
faced with rioting in our streets and violence on our campuses, all of
which has been precipitated by our ancestors, through a lack of
understanding and intolerance and which we, as yet, have been unable
to alleviate.
; One basic concept which we must accept is that the black man is an
individual with a certain degree of pride and that in nottreating him as
such, this pride is directed into an extremely volatile defensive
attitude which strikes out at remarks or actions which ordinarily
might not warrant such aggressive response.
College coaches throughout the nation have begun to relize this.
They have asked the players to level with them, to tell them exactly
how they feel so that the coach may pattern his thinking and actions
in a more constructive manner. John Pont, head football coach at
University of Indiana where blacks were suspended from the varsity
squad for missing two practice sessions expresses himself this way: “I
haven't changed my mind really, on anything that has transpired.
We've asked, ‘Why do you feel this way?’ and ‘What is it a black feels
about being black?’ trying to get to their ideas. We'll never know but
at least they can explain to us how they feel.”
In some cases, the blacks have explained their feelings and it would
take a fool to say that they are not justified. The blackman is
primarily concerned with getting an education. When he receives a
scholarship for a “five year plan” and then has it taken away when his
four years of atheletic eligibility expires, he must use his own funds to
graduate. Many times, the money just isn’t there. Then a black is told
to shave his beard or quit the team, he is the object of an archaic
“all-american athelete” theory which would have gone out with spats.
And when it is publicized that blacks have demanded more playing
time, it is quite possible that whites have done the same but we have
not heard as much about it. P
In short, unrest in sport is the same as unrest anywhere. Tt is
characterized by a lack of communication which leads to
misunderstanding and bad feeling. Coaches have begun to bridge this
ga
Rs a
Maybe this unrest, or at least the solution to it is constructive. We
shall see.

Mark Twain’s war prayer, from
“The War Prayer.”
“O Lord our Father, our young
patriots, idols of our hearts, go
forth to battle — be Thou near
them!
With them, in spirit, we also go
forth from the seet peace of our
beloved firesides to smite the foe.
O Lord our God, help us to tear
their soldiers to bloody shreds
with .our shells; help us to cover
their smiling fields with the pale
forms of their patriot dead; help
us to drown the thunder of the
guns with the shrieks of their
wounded, writhing in pain; help
us to lay waste their humble
homes with a hurricane of fire;
help us_to wring the hearts of
their unoffending widows with
unavailing grief; help us to turn
them our roofless with their little
children to wander unfriended the
wastes of their desolated land in
rags and hunger and thirst, sports
of the sun flames of summer and
the icy winds of winter, broken in
spirit, worn with travail imploring
Thee for the refuge of the grave
and denied it — for our sakes who
adore Thee, Lord, blast their
hopes, blight their lives, protract
their bitter pilgrimage, make
heavy their steps, water their way
with their tears, stain the white
snow with the blood of their
wounded feet!
We ask it, in the spirit of love,
of Him Who is the Source of
Love, and Who is the ever-faithful
refuge and friend of all that are
sore beset and seek His aid with
humble and contrite hearts.
AMEN
There are many of us who love,
and we ask each of you to
consider what you mean before
you speak, during the coming

Our Vice President
visitations II
Wednesday, the 17th, from 14
Ed. Note:| Both this column and
‘Visitations I’ were unsolicited
contributions brought to us by
the authors. We will continue to
allot column space next term to
anyone who wishes to expound
on one particular viewpoint.
One of the most amazing
qualities of Vice President Agnew
is his faulty sense of history and
politics. He has been particularly
adept in displaying his lack of
historical and political knowledge
in speeches on dissent and the
press.
Agnew has consistently alluded
to the historical situation during
World War II to support his
demands for a unified nation to
aid the war effort. He also
maintains that the American
political system can disenfranchise
part of the society which supports
it and continue functioning.
The Vice President recalls when
Americans fought for their
country in Europe and the Pacific
against the Axis powers and now
wonders why young Americans
refuse to do combat for their
nation’s honor today. Mr. Agnew
seems to forget that the United
Staves fought in self-defense
during World War II. In Vietnam, *
this country intervened in an
internal dispute between two
nationalistic forces to assist an
essentially illegal government
(read the 1954 Geneva treaty if
you don’t believe it). American
national security was hardly at
stake as it was in the struggle
against the Axis.
Agnew also stated about
dissenters that “we can afford to
separate them from our society
with no more regret than we
should feel over discarding rotten
apples from a barrel.” He has
given no explanation concerning
the methods of this separation.
However, his fascination’ with the
World War II period brings to
mind the way in which dissenters
from the political developments in
Germany in the 1930’s were
“separated” from their society.
Even if this was not the case,
due to the moralistic ethic that
Americans attribute to
themselves, does Mr. Agnew
actually think that the national
government -can disenfranchise
part of society from the American
by Perry Silverman
political system without
endangering its operation?
Political science theory, supported
by historical fact, shows that
when a government does not
respond positively to inputs from
the society, it loses legitimacy in
the view of the society. This loss
of legitimacy leads to demands for
an alteration of the political
system. The manner in which such
an alteration would take place
depands upon the flexibility of
that existing governmental process
in responding to is crisis
situation. In the 1700’s, American
demands for an alteration of the
British system so that the colonies
would be represented with full
powers in Parliament were
suppressed. The American
Revolution was ‘the ultimate
Tesult.
In regard to Agnew’s attitude
toward the press, he stated that
“when Winston Churchill rallied
public opinion to stay the course
against Hitler’s Germany, he
didn’t have to contend with a
gaggle of commentators raising
doubts about whether he was
reading the public right.”
Historically, this is false. Churchil’
had many journalists and
politicians ‘who opposed him.
However, it should be noted that
it was Hitler who did not have to
contend with journalistic
Opposition when ‘rallying his
nation against Britain.
Politically, this criticism of
news analysis-strikes at one of the
bases of a democratically oriented
society-knowledge. This includes
the knowledge to refuse false
information. Mr. Agnew’s
insinuation that only one side of
the coin should be examined--his
side (which he equates with the
correct side)--disposes of the
principle of weighing differing
views. Disposing of this principle
also disposes of the way in which
members of a democratic society
determine their own views on
public issues critically,
Vice President Agnew’s
apparent view that ignorance of
the opposite side of an issue is
strength, in addition to his
affinity toward disenfranchising
dissent, has indicated that he is in
need of a refresher course on the
principles of democracy.

Protest the draft, anyone?
An underground reporter
recently interviewed a Nixon
spokesman about the way. The
man rapped about the fighting
racket is a farce. (You expected | lull; “...you’ll agree that 100 GI
deaths per week is a bargain...” He
continues, “The Administration
has three problems: one, claiming
enough enemy dead to satisfy the
hawks, two, getting enough GI’s
knocked off to make the number
of claimed enemy dead seem
plausible, and three, keeping GI
deaths at a level that won’t
outrage the doves.” “Of course, if
enough Gl’s get the notion that
dying to fill a quota is not as
noble as dying for one’s country,
some downward adjustment may
become desireable...” He
concluses, “These are the realities
of the Vietnam war, my boy. Isn’t
it better to sacrifice one hundred
men rather than a thousand, or,
worse yet, admit we were wrong
to sacrifice any of our boys in the
first place?”
Also out of Washington is a
report that Nixon was caught
making “an obvious two-handed
automobile driving gesture” after
shaking hands with Ted Kennedy
at Andrews Air Force Base. On
New York cities WOR radio
station, John Wingate had a guest
who was answering word
associations. Wingate publicly
apologized when the response to
“Nixon” was ‘homosexual
without a sense of humor.” One
other interesting news report this
month was about the publisher of
Reader’s Digest. His seventeen
year old son, upon reading an
article his dad wrote about the
family’s generation gap, plunged a
knife mto his father’s stomach.
Generation gap?
Meanwhile, back on campus,
it’s time for re-hiring and tenure
decision. Any student who feels
that a particular faculty member
is being either unjustly denied or
unjustly granted tenure or a new
contract, should organize his class
or circilate a patition. The time
to exert our power is NOW!
There was another Central
Council Poll taken, this time
about the University Public Order
Maintenance plans. Why did the
enormous turnout of 213 answers
occur? Obviously, there was no
choice for total abolition of the
repressive rules.

Liberated Propaganda—350!
To the Editors:
During the past three weeks, the members of one
of three groups in RPA 350 --Oral Propaganda --
have conducted an extensive campaign designed to
bring attention to the Women’s Liberation Front.
At the time this project was conceived -- wholely by
the members of the group, with absolutely no
advice or decision of approval or disapproval by the
instructor - the Women’s Liberation Front was a
totally unknown, wholely unorganized, virtually
non-existent group.
Within the three weeks since Thanksgiving
vacation, as we are sure almost every student at
Albany State will agree, the WLF, like Spiro Agnew,
has become a household word. They have gained
notoriety solely through the efforts of our group,
although recently they have contributed somewhat
by their conspicuously emotional reaction to our
campaign.
Las week, after our initial efforts became known
to the WLF, all hell broke loose, to put it lightly.
This was precisely what we had expected and
anticipated. For the most part the WLF reacted
adversely to the slogans and posters we had
distributed and put up on campus. 5
THE WLF has expressed some rather strong
disapproval of our freely given public relations
advice and advertising, and frankly, our feelings are
hurt. But, gosh, when an organization elects a
steering committee one week, and by the following
week have forgotten who they elected, well, “Gee
Whillikers!” somebody has to do something!!!
One thing is for sure; the stereotype of the irate
woman -- the epitome of the female temper - is
embodied in the WLF. Maybe we just caught them
at a bad time of the month, but it seems as if “being
emotional” is a “role” that even the members of the
Women’s Liberation Front are still accepting.
Seriously yours,
THE GROUP
Inundation!
To the Editors: 7
During the past few weeks the campus has been
innundated with propaganda. and publicity
concerning the women’s liberation movement. The
propaganda which announces the meetings of the
Women’s Liberation Front has various slogan’s
pasted on the top; “Pussy Power” and suggestions
that members of the Women’s the Women’s
Liberation Front don’t wear bras, etc. At this point
the Women’s Liberation Movement emphatically
disassociates itself from all such publicity and
condemns it as reactionary and male chauvinist..
There is a history to these leaflets. They emanate
from a course given in the speech department called
“Oral Propaganda” taught by Robert Norton. The
students in the course were given the assignment to
break down into groups and create, by agitational
means, an issue on the campus. One of these groups,
led by Kenneth Stringer and Robert Iseman, known
reactionaries, undertook to secretly publicize the
Women’s Liberation meetings under the slogans
mentioned above. They never approached the
women’s group about their intentions to do
publicity, and in fact their own intentions were
explicitly hostile to the movement. Under the guise
of Norton’s protective security in terms of the
assignment, they began disseminating their garbage.
What makes them so uptight? When questioned,
Kenneth Stringer claimed that his goal was to
destroy the Women’s Liberation organization.
Fortunately most women are beginning to recognize
that the kind of subserviantworld that the Stringers
would place women into is precisely the kind of
world that the women’s movement is successfully
challenging.
Under the guise of Pussy Power, Stringer is
articuating a very old notion created by Western
civilization and rampant in most men, that is, that
heterosexuality is necessary in bed, but outside the
bedroom ‘all other concepts of meaning, activity,
and power are homosexual. The culturally created
homosexual world objectifies women, i.e., makes
them into alienated bodies and gives them no life
except within the confines of what the man
demands. Women’s Liberation has nothing against
honest homosexuality, but when homosexual
concepts creep into heterosexual relationships under
the guise of domination we can only say that these
concepts have become our enemies.
Women’s liberation militates against all notions of
homosexual domination and is seriously involved in
creating defnitions of human equal relationships. To
tear down the walls of dominance and to create
self-determined relationships places the Stringers of
the world in the camp of uptight reactionary men.
All we can say to them is “Up against the wall
mother fucker.” (Freud would have said that’s
where their problems were rooted in the first place.)
We have real business to take care of. Go solve your
own homosexual fetishes on you own. Don’t use us
for your own Tepressed fantasies. The real and only
question is true unfetishized liberation.
Liz Ewen, member
Women’s Liberation Front
Phantastic!
Dear Sirs,
I was delighted to read (ASP, Tuesday, December
9th) about the phantastically democratic method
that is used to select the Editor of your organ, and
the new, radical approach in actually allowing the
consideration, by the incumbent Editorial Board, of
applications for the post of Editor from carefully
screened persons who are not actually already
members of the ASP movement (subject, of course,
to the formality of the candidate giving the right
answers when questioned about his ideas).
Where, one can but wonder, will all this new
liberality end? Perhaps even someday the students
who finance the paper, via the SA Tax, may actually
themselves get a vote in who controls it. Or perhaps
Editorial Boards will choose to continue rehearsing
potential roles for the future; after all, who knows,
one day they may perhaps find themselves members
of some political machine or other, or even, dare
one say it, a Faculty member of some university?
Yours etc.

Highly Unproductive
To the Editors:
Yesterday’s Senate meeting was highly
unproductive. A number of people obstructed the
conduct of business in order to raise questions and
present motions which are better answered at times
other than the times they were raised.
The topics of Viet Nam, the Viet Nam War, and
US. involvement are important topics. They need
great consideration, but they need consideration by
ALL MEMBERS of the University.
As all Senators may well recognize, the vote to
adjourn effectively blocked ALL DISCUSSION on
ALL MATTERS. This certainly is detrimental.

Math Instruction ‘Slammed’
Open Letter to the Mathematics Department:
If the instructors and students of the math
department want an efficient way to correct present
discrepancies, they should agree to have a “slam
session” as the Biology department now has. A
“slam session” is a meeting of students and
professors for the purpose of voicing their opinions
about department policies. The outcome of these
meetings is not only to understand problems, but to
take suitable action to rectify them, However, to
have such a session, ALL students and professors
must be willing to attend.
Sincerely yours,
Barry Kolman and

Danes Defended
To the Editors:
At first I seriously considered writing to the ASP
to make a reply concerning Raymond Naidl’s letter
which suggested changing the name of our
basketball team from the “Great Danes” to the
“Albany Clowns.”
But after my initial anger died down, I realized
that the majority of people on campus would realize
Mr. Naidl’s general stupidity. Of course, we all
already know that the state forbids athletic
scholarships at state schools. Of course, we all know
neither Rich Margison or Scott Price was on any
sort of scholarship. Of course, we all know we have
a schedule heavily-laden with non-scholarship
schools. Of course, we all know that scholarships at
Albany are given for financial need, and financial
need only. And of course we all know that after last
years impressive tournament performance we
already have more than a “respectable” reputation
throughout the East. But let us not dwell on Mr.
Naidl’s lack of gray matter.
Instead, 1 would like to thank the fans who have
continued to support the Sauersman. It was a
heartwarming feeling to look up in the stands before
the Marist game and see the place packed. It is not
too many schools where 2,500 students will come
to support a team on a weekday night after two
disastrous defeats.
I suppose you fans can take partial credit for our
victory over Marist.
They were a tough team; probably the best we
have played. Yet Albany rose to the occasion and
the constant roar of the fans helped to keep them at
the peak of their performance.
No doubt there will be other nights when we are
having trouble finding the basket. But the Danes
will not stay down for long with fans like you
behind them.
As for Mr. Naidl, I suggest you write the New
York Times and demand they change the name of
the New York Knicks to the New York Clowns.
They lost twice in a row too!

Reactionary Holdout
To the Editor:
During the limited amount of time that I’ve spent
on this campus, I have. witnessed a tremendous
liberalization of administrative policies and views.
The changes that have been made and those that
are now being considered were inevitable. The
students of today differ drastically both inwardly
and outwardly from the students of past
generations. It is these differences that have brought
about the recent liberalizations. Just as society
undergoes change, so must the “society” of the
university.
There exists on this campus, however, one small
section that has resisted changes in its policies over
the past years and has therefore remained stagnant
in its way of thinking.
During the past few months I have had the
pleasure of being the receptionist at the Student
Infirmary during visiting hours. Recently I was
dismissed for refusing to cut my hair which my.
employer felt was too long and therefore was
inhibiting the successful completion of my duties.
This was not the only restriction that was placed on
my appearance. I was also informed that I was not
to wear beads and that I was to always come to
work dressed in a shirt and ties.
I feel that the restrictions placed on me were
entirely unfair and unreasonable. My duties at the
Infirmary were to let the appropriate number of
visitors in and to make sure they had left at the
close of visiting hours. In no way did my appearance
either help or hinder me in performing these duties.
I therefore feel that a change should be made to
thoroughly revise the existing policies governing the
dress and appearance of student employees at the
Infirmary or any other place that hires students on
campus.
When I questioned the fact that my hair did not
determine my performance on the job nor was it
offensive to the visitors, patients, or nurses, I was
told that my job was not to question existing
policies but rather only to complete (as the Director
ae ues, Marjorie Frame put it) my “menial
1 felt it was my right to question the existing
policies if I felt they were wrong. I thirik it is about
time that the administration and the director of the
Infirmary, Dr. Hood, look over the policies used to
hire student employees at the Infirmary. These
policies should be revised.
I feel it is about time people started tearing down
the barriers between a person’s appearance and the
person himself. Let us once and for all open our
minds and begin judging a person’s performance on
his performance alone and not on his appearance.
Regretfully yours,
Andy Egol
Conscience -and ‘Pigs’
To the Editor:
I would heartily agree with Mr. DePree’s stand
(“An Approach to Song My,” ASP, Dec. 9): “As
long ‘as service men are unable to differentiate
‘friend’ from ‘enemy’, especially when ‘they all look
the same’, how is one to expect a decline in civilian
(‘gook’) murders?” He’s right. Debasement of
individuals to “things, not humans” ’ is imperative
before one can justify violence. Luckily, we as
university students are too wise to be guilty of the
crime; we'll leave that to the pigs.

Our Time
Turning on the leaves in steady convolution away from someone else’s
scene, I returned to myself finding only loneliness and longing for
what I left behind. Ah, the past had too great a future for me to go
now on my own. Like amber it encrusted me. Though I knew the
crust was cracking and I was to join the rest free ina world of heady
feeling, some of the shell was my skin, my mind, my own self. My
own self-made by someone else when I didn’t look because
distractions turned my soggy head. In the company of myself, for 20
years I knew there was something wrong. When I was alone I would
die, call, read for five minutes, live and die again, talk to myself.
cower and crumble, crack and reach for stability in the familiarity of
someone else’s presence.
But I knew, oh yes, I knew that that someone was someone,
something I made up to reaffirm the crust the safety of amber, of
deceit, of anti-soul. But what could I do knowing nothing but derived
sympathy, secondary humanity. So I sat and melted into comforting
subservience. Ah, you young people, it’s nice to see you committed to
tidding us of poverty and pollution. But wait-you really don’t want to
destrou war do you? I mean war against communists of course and
race riots and poverty and pollution? But we want to continue having
all sorts of wars and you can’t stop us because no one has the tight to
impose their will on others; but us-we can impose our will on you and
them and the whole world because we are the whole world so we are
your and their will. We are, of necessity, representing and acting in
accordance with your best interests. Oh laugh, laugh, the whole world
is insane. Don’t you see?
We can’t care uvvut your heads and hearts anymore, strangers, it is
our time now.
Apocalypse
No one can deny that we are prepared. Armed with a gas mask in
one hand and a machine gun in the other, with fear in our hearts and
hate pervading our guts, with senseless wars as a fitting background
and nuclear overkill as the essential deterrent, and with poverty and
hunger as the supporting cast, mankind prepares to entertain the
1970's.
No one can deny that they have readied, also. With reforms of
curriculum in the left hand and a healthy disdain in the right, with
money as its nourishment and qualified ‘technicians’ as its waste
product, with irrelevancy as a backdrop and learning as a camouflage,
the University also sends greetings to the new decade.
Ten years of incredible progress have brought us to the nadir of
human existence. Our greatest goods totally debased by our most
unimaginable horrors, we now reach the next milestone. Into the
°70’s, off we go!
What path will we take? Greater horrors of untold dimensions may
await us — or will there — can, there— be a reversal of our suicidal
tendencies?
Will the University ever listen to those whose only stake in the
University is their lives? Can the day ever come when excellent
professors who can inspire and motivate are not fired because of
jealousy and misunderstandings on their colleagues part?
Will this nation, for example, be wise enough to reevaluate herself
honestly? Can ‘she throw off a system which makes economy and
capital far mor precious than human life? Can she abolish a racist
sickness which devours her insides?
Can this polluted planet redeem itself from its approaching suicide?
Can mankind ever end the scourge of war — a concept rooted in the
accepted belief that human life is not as valuable as trash?
So, what can we do? Joan Baez put her finger on it, baby. ‘It isnot
anyone else who is going to get us out of the bloody mess we are in -
if is only you and only me.’
We must rethink our values, and derive that which best benefits
humanity. We must question, demand, examine, and act. We must say
‘no’ when we know that mankind will benefit from that answer. We
must transcend the ridiculously antiquated notion of national interest,
in respect for the reality of world-wide interests.
We must accept life as a mystical experience, holier than all else,
and then act to preserve and upgrade it. ‘
You, the Great Lazy Majority, must realize your stake in a rapidly
deteriorating world.
The picture is not glum; it is apocalyptic. But it remains for you
and I and all of us to get our heads together and work for a society of
humans of the planet Earth, whose first priority, is simply life. Like
man, what else is there?

Tenure Question
To the Editors:
During the last school year the University as a
whole received the directive to involve students
more closely in the decision-making process and to
“open the lines of communication” between the
faculty, the administration, and most of all the
students themselves.
Since February of this year the History
Department has made an attempt to do so. At that
time Dr. Clara Tucker had been considered for
tenure but was denied. Students within the
department organized on her behalf and formed the
History Students’ Association.
Since that time history students have become
more directly involved with the department and
now serve on its standing committees.
Unfortunately, the position of Dr. Tucker remains
in doubt.
Earlier this semester at a meeting of all
departmental tenured faculty, Dr. Tucker’s case was
reviewed. She received the overwhelming
recommendation of her colleagues; however,
minority reports were submitted by a few of them.
The departmental recommendation then proceeded
to the Arts and Sciences Committee on Promotion
and Continuing Appointments where it was
summarily overturned. Upon request, this decision
will soon be reviewed by the University Council on
Promotions and Continuing appointments. <
Dr. Clara Tucker is one of the few outstanding
undergraduate teachers at this University despite her
lack of publications. Her classes are always filled to
capacity: a result not only of her popularity, but a
testiment to her ability as a teacher. She has
inspired students to learn and continue in their
study of history.
Having teceived the endorsement of her colleagues,
Dr. Tucker has been judged unnecessarily and
unfairly. The procedures established to review
departmental decisions on promotion and tenure
were designed to insure adherence to the policies of
the Board of Trustees. In this case the process has
become on of judgment rather than review. The
decision reached by her colleagues, those most fit to
judge her, has been over-ruled.
The History Students’ Association urges each and
every student who knows of Dr. Tucker’s excellence
or has had her as a teacher to sign one of the
petitions currently circulating. Letters to President
Kuusisto by students and concerned parents are
always welcomed by the administration.
There is a place in this University for both
graduate and undergraduate teaching. If one were to
be sacrificed for the other, damage to the University
community would be irreparable.

We would like to make it perfectly clear, that |
despite the fact that Wasserman and Rawson are
members of our department of Rhetoric and Public |
Address, they exhibited an uncanny knack for
debasing the vary art which they sould have
mastered by now. In their letter to the ASP they
resorted to McCarthy: like tactics - the smear, the

assertions that play on the emotions. There surely
the half-truth, the unsubstantiated ,

to voice disapproval... So Stratton and Jeffrey,

Petition Procedures Arthur Debin
To the Editor:
For the past few weeks, I have been one of the
students circulating a petition which asked for a
new referendum on the question of mandatory
student tax; we obtained about 1900 signatures. A
week ago this petition was given to Central Council
so that its validity could be checked before action
was taken on the motion.
This week I discovered that some of the students
who had signed the petition were called by by
members of Central Council. They were asked not
only if they had signed the petition but why they
had signed it. Although this method of telephoning
has never been used on any other petitions, I was
informed by Central Council that they would
continue to use this procedure in the future . I
strongly question the implication that the Council’s
tight to “review” petitions goes any further than to
ascertain whether or not the students did indeed
sign it, which has always been done by checking the
student numbers.
Few students on the SUNYA campus will sign
any future petitions if they feel that Central Council
is going to call on them to justify their positions at a
later date. If nothing else, this method is an invasion
of privacy and assuredly does not represent a
legitimate function of Central Council.
Sincerely,
