Vice President of

e Role
aturity
of New York highlighted Tuesday’s All-University
Convocation with-a keynote address entitled ‘The
Student and the University." In the speech he dis-
cussed the intellectual life of the University and
how he hopes it will influence the student and the
institution,
He began with a short
welcome of the Class of
1969, und went on to call
the University’s New
Campus 1 symbol of
change which will move
the University “towards
becoming a major educa-
tional and research cen-
ter."
He then discussed the reason
for the university and its duty
towards the student,
University's Existence
Gould called the existence of
the university a “major bastion
against ignorance and the well-
spring of ideas by which civiliza-
tion progresses."
“In a democratic society we are
committed to the belief that a
university should be free and un
trammeled in its explorations and
that the shadow of thought controt
should never touch it.
“Adherence to this principle is
the best guarantee we have of the
preservation and nurture of our
democratic ideal:
He said that a university's major
responsibility to the student is to
prepare him for the “sharing of
the passion and action of our time
and to place you (the student)
squarely in the tidst of both even
while you are students,
Proporation for Life
“A university education 1s not
merely preparation for 1ife; it 1s
life itself,
He called the student the “se-
lected, and ultimately the educated,
core of our society and our hope
for leadership in all aspects of
life."
Gould sald that tt 4s the function
of the university to bring about an
awareness in the student, This ts,

Welcome Faculty
When welcomes are extended by stu-
dent newspapers, they usually center
entirely on students. We wish to wel-
come our new faculty and our new
staff members.
No university community is com-
posed entirely of students; the com-
munity is made up of everyone from
President Collins to a freshman to
Kitchen worker. We of the ASP hope
you will all be members of our reading
audience and that you will feel free to
express your opinions in letters to our
editors,
We extend a special greeting to the
new professors, instructors and grad-
uate assistants, We are enthusiastic in
this welcome because of the position
teaching holds in this university.
Albany-State has never been.a ‘‘pub-
Mah or perish’ institution, The teach-
ing of students and the counseling of
students are of as great importance as
publishing, We feel this is as it should
be.
Activities Day
Welcome, freshmen, to our forever
expanding University. Like most fresh~
men you are eager to take an active
part in the various activities on cam-
uus.,
7 Tomorrow on Activities Day youwill
receive your chance to sign upfor these
activities, In your eagerness many of
you will probably join several organi-
zations, This is all well and good, if
you are going to be able to bean active

Rotate in Group Events
In the evening, and for the next
day, the freshmen were divided
into three groups, each partici-
pating in the three major events
of the Conference. The first event
included individual appointments in
Draper Hall.
Each freshman had an individual
appointnient with his academic ad-
visor, where he arranged his
courses for the fall semester and
talked with his advisor about aca-
demic problem:
In addition, freshmen were able
to request appointments with the
housing office, financial aids, med~
cal office, and counseling service,
Identification pictures and cards
were also processed at this time,
During the free time between
appointments the freshmen toured

At the end of each of the eight
sessions, the freshmen were given
the opportunity to rate e1

Additional space was provided
for written criticism on the most
and least helpful aspects of the
Conference,
‘The purpose ot such a detailed

The next highest rating was re=
eelved by the individual academic
advisement appointments, which
87.7% of the freshmen thought were
excellent or very good.
Probably the most common crit-
felsm of the conference was that
there were “too many lectures."*
‘The opening convocation, for ex-
ample, received the lowest per-
cent of excellent and very good
ratings (39.5%), but 43.7% of the
freshmen found'it “satisfactory.”
Talks on the new student gov-
ernment and residence-hall liv
ing were fairly well received.
The frosh enjoyed the tour of
the new campus, but when dis-
cussing the campus itself, they

“Welcome to Albany’s
community of scholars.
No matter what you
thought of yourself be-
fore, here at Albany we
think and assume thatyou
are a person who is com-
ing to college to learn,”
With these words at the Opening
Convocation, Dr. Howard Maxwell,
Director of Academic Advisement,
set the tone for the Summer Plan=
ning Conference,
From the very beginning of the
conference, the freshmen were
treated as scholars. Each activity
was geared to acquaint them with
the freedoms and responsibilities
of a scholar in an academic com-
munity. woe
Individual Freedoms
he freedoms that you will ex-
perience can be a misleading drug
and will prove to be your most
valuable lesson of the freshman
year,’” continued Dr, Maxwell.
“The test of real maturity will be
the use of this freedom with re=
sponsibility,
“The student remembers that
he {s here in college to make of
himself all that he 1s capable of
becoming. He has an obligation to
his family, state, and nation, as
well as to himself, to take ad
tage of the educational opportun=
ities that are available here at
the Untversity.””
Dr. Morris, who spoke to the
group earlier, outlined the re-
sponsibility which the University
felt in helping students to achieve
this feeling of community,
“The State University of New
York at Albany 1s committedto the
elimination of those causes which
tend to annihilate the feeling of
Personal worth on the part of the
individual!" he said,
“You will find that almost all
members of this faculty, adminis-
tration, student affairs staff, rest~
dence hall directors, and resident
assistants are ready, willing, and
able (o discuss any matter of per=
sonal concern to you at any tiine,’*
University Extends Help
Dr, Maxwell also spoke of the
University's willingness to extend
aid, especially in regard to the
University College. “We are ex-
perlenced in helping freshmen
through a year that will prove to
be exciting and at limes difficult,
T think you will find that we can
be of great help to you, but you
must let us know when you do
need help.”
‘This responsibility of the tresh-
man to take the Initiative was
‘emphasized by Richard Thompson,
Chairman of Central Council, in
his explanation of the student gov=
ernment structure,

‘The emphasis on individual re

three-day program, It also formed
the essence of the concluding re
marks of Dr, Morris.

» movement of some 1300 freshmen letting ‘their
presence’ be felt on the SUNYA scene. Included in
the formation were approximately 600 males, re-
portedly in healthy states of mind and body and
{© seemingly enjoying being outnumbered by members
of the opposite sex. A typial freshman class,
“agreed?
Now, being of unsound mind and body, what else
does an ASP (that’s the name of the newspaper)
sports editor do but wonder how many of those
sound specimens will lend themselves to the ause
of bettering State athletics. Having already estab-
lished the class as ‘‘typical,!' the answer is an un-
fortunate too few, far too few.””
Over the past several years Albany has been ex-
periencing a tremendous growth in size, population,
and prestige, all of which has been effected by the
power of SUNYA’s by word — transition, We are in
the process of performing a transition from a State
Teachers College to a State University. Academical-
ly and architecturally we are succeeding; athletical-
ly we are not,
Turnout Smaller
For a good many years now, Albany’s incoming
class has been ‘biggerand hetter’’ than the pre-
ceding one. And yet, of late, the turnout for athletic
teams has been progressively smaller (percentage-
wise), Perhaps increased academic pressure or
apprehensions about intercollegiate competition has
served to dissuade high school athletes from taking
up sports in college, Whatever the reasons, the end
result is always the same for school—poorer and:
poorer teams,
In part the school is to be blamed, Recruiting
restrictions, lack of administration support, poor
facilities, and general hardships on athletes have
all helped to push State athletics into the hack seat
of SUNYA’s transitional movement. Oh, granted
we've changed our mascot from a penguin to a great
dane, but nominal changes aren’t the kind our athle-
tic system needs,
Hope With Frosh
Only the administration can correct the aforemen-
tioned faults; it could be a long wait. And with most
upperclassmen well rooted in their college careers,
the great hope of Albany's athletic program lies in
the incoming Class of 1969,
What the men of the Classof’69 can do is examine
the State sports program, evaluate the sports and
what you can offer them and what they can offer you,
and, finally, decide if you can fit a sport into your
academic schedule, If you have any questions ahout
time budgeting, or if you wonder about your qualifi-
cations for making a team, just consult with your
gym instructor, He'll be more than glad to help you,
I can’t imagine any freshman not being proud of
