The reason is, that they are overladen with inert ideas. Education with inert ideas is not only useless: it is, above all things, harmful... Every intellectual revolution which has ever stirred humanity into greatness has been a passionate protest against inert ideas. ~A.N. Whithead (continued from page 1) relatively slow, this was a_ perfectly valid assumption.... But the enormous speed of change in our time brougnt on by the cybernetic revolution, necessitates a total change in this structure. We have created a situation in which we cannot assume that simply because somebody has been studying an issue life, he knows it best.’ So somewhere in this dialogue, the student will probably echo McLuhan: ‘‘Mere instruction will not all his suffice.’ “There are children playing in the street who could solve some of my top problems in physics,because they have modes of sensory perception that ! lost long ago.”’ -J. Robert Oppenheimer 2222222222222222222222 why ?2222222222?22222222227? “Progressive people in the ‘30's said it was possible to use education to shape the future to determine what kind of society we're going to be living in---but at that time they didn’t have the technology to pull it off,’’ according to Harry Silberman, a researcher at System Development Corp. in Santa Monica, California. So what is the cybernetic revolution that Theobald says will mean ‘‘total change’’ in the education structure? It is the electric technology—computers, et al._that supplants the former mechanized technology. And it was the age of mechanization and even prior to it that conceived our 19th century educational system. Close your eyes and drift back to your grammar school classroom. You're biting your lower lip and grappling with a fat, black pencil. “Now | want you to rewrite your stories on good white paper, and let’s see what nice, neat papers you can turn in, Pay special attention to your penmanship and be sure your hands are clean.”’ This teacher from our 19th century system undoubtably got enough pretty white papers to fill the class bulletin board, but what of originality? Unwittingly she thwarted a creative drive by emphasizing, not the content of thoughts, but writing them down. ee re “Youth instinctively understands the present environment— the electric drama. It lives mythically and in depth. This is the reason for the great alienation between generations. Wars, revolutions, civil uprisings are interfaces within the new environments created by electric informational media.”’ ‘McLuhan Fc nn It’s extremely provacative when McLuhan tells us that the nature of the media by which wecommunicate molds our society more than the content of the communication. It seems almost to Support our little grammar school teacher. But no! The cybernetic revolution of which 'heobald and others speak means something quite different The mechanical technology of alphabet and print *ncouraged the age of the specialist, the detached. The electric technology moves toward unification and 'Wolvement in the age of the unspecialist. Alas! for the neat penmanship on our teacher's 900d white paper shows the reluctance of our “ducation system to move into the new electically configured world.

Buckminister Fuller engineer, designer, math of our leaders into the “Inventor, ‘everything is a matter of accelerated education.”’ TL WANT You-want Gou- WANT OU -UWANT Let the computer do the memory work of the brain, in contradistinction to the mind, which is the one that looks for generalized patterns. Specialization (the isolated fact, the isolated relationship) is the antithesis of generalization and adaptability—two areas that characterize man (as opposed to the studies of extinct creatures that have been shown to be victims of their overspecialization). ACTIVISTS OF THE GLOBAL VILLAGE Yet it won't be this brilliant man in his 80's or 90's that will take care. It will be the student activists of the global village—the ones who were demanding “meaningful dialogue’ and ‘‘alternative choices’ while McLuhan’s globe got ‘shrunk in the wash with speeded-up information movement from all directions.” Fuller, Theobald, McLuhan, and others all agree that ours is a world of ‘“‘allatoneness.’” We are inundated instantly and continuously with information. We don’t act; we react. This world requires us to move from the visual habit of data classification to gestalt patterns of recognition. Not block-by-block or step-by-step, but active instant interplay with everyone and everything. And we are profoundly involved with one another in this global village of simultaneous happenings. What if the student cannot involve and relate the educational scheme into his experience of this electronically processed world? Mystification and disgust, alienation and apathy, powerlessness and irrelevancy— when this is driven home, the apathetic becomes the cynical. That, no less, is the necessary condition for any revolution—be it the rationale of civil disobedience or the politics of confrontation. “If there is anything at all that seems likely to drop this country’s urban universities into the Twentieth Century, it is probably the spectre of their pillars silhouetted by the flames of the ghetto. It is not happenstance that a week after Martin Luther King Jr.'s murder, universities all across the country were referring to “King Day’ and were instituting scholarships memorials, and special recruiting programs for the ghetto black. Nor is it happenstance that a month later ponderous Columbia was in shambles after ignoring the concerns of its Harlem i i for U.S, Student Press). neighbors.” (Frank Browning BETWEEN BERKELEY AND COLUMBIA years separate Columbia from Berkely. have grown in number and seriousness since then.

Over the past century, America has adopted an uppermiddle class ethos which emphasizes competence, interest, and achievement. The aurhors term it ‘‘meritocratic.’’ SOCIAL MOBILITY MYTH Riesman and Jencks devote much space in this work to the popular myth that education is a means to upward social mobility in our electric technology. Underlining the function of education in this context, they point out that it is not teaching but professional socialization. It is the middle-class child who has been lovingly taught ‘competence, interest, and achievement.’ The schools of the lower-class neither Prepare him for, nor encourage him to go to college. So it appears that academia spawns frustration both within and without its haven from the electronic world. So the kinks aren‘t all worked out. We've only begun to dream of what the cybernetic revolution can do for us! For the first time, technology makes it possible for us to feed, cloth and house the whole world. It can enable us to have facts at our finger tips and free our minds from petty arithmetic. There’s a new and almost certainly better world within our grasp. One thing is for sure—Vietnam, Berkeley, Dallas, and Memphis have shown that fact-stuffed, liberal, automated America simply isn’t working. : “Only the hand that erases can write the true thing.” : -Meister Eckhardt: Listening... learning.

Jenkins from Senator Edward M. Kennedy requesting that the students here join in a relief campaign to send food, drugs and vitamins to the starving and wounded victims of the Nigeria/Biafra civil war. At the end of February, UNICEF had shipped more than 62 million pounds of food to the area. Since this time this organization has continued to pour thousands of dollars of relief goods into Nigeria, straining an already insufficient budget. According to Senator Charles Goodell of New York, who recently visited the area this UNICEF aid must be increased. Unless something dramatic is changed almost immediately, a minimum of 1 million and probable 2 to 2.5 million Biafrans will die in the next 12 months. In an attempt to help the United Nations help the war victims, thousands of Americans contributed over $725,000 for emergency relief. More than $100,000 of this money came from college students. Today the need for supplies is more crucial than ever before. Concerned Americans are realizing this fact and are reacting to the emergency situation by sending contributions to the U.S. Committee for UNICEF with the notation that these funds are to be used for Nigeria/Biafra relief. The Student Government Association and The East Carolinian are now planning a campaign for this campus to raise money for relief in this war-ravaged land. An announcement as to the date and time of this campaign will be announced in the next issue of this newspaper. The East Carolinian urges all students to give as much as possible in this campaign to help end the needless suffering of thousands of innocent Africans. Apathy strikes here again Recently a wave of student apathy has struck the campus that makes some involved students and administrators shake their heads in disbelief. Never in the history of this university has this apathy been more evident than in the past two weeks. Two weeks ago Dr. Leo Jenkins, president of the university, asked for student assistance in the battle for a doctorate program here. About 150 students turned out for an organizational meeting of County Clubs at Jenkins’ home. At that time, County Club meetings were scheduled for last Tuesday so that students from each county in the state could become involved in a program to help the university better their education. Tuesday came and no more than 50 people attended these meetings. Some students who were supposed to help organize these clubs did not even bother to attend. “The Rebel,”’ campus literary magazine, sponsored an Eastern North Caro ina Arts festival last weekend to give an outlet for students interested in the fine arts. One of the reasons this festival was planned was that the students here have complained in the past about a lack of an academic and literary atmosphere. When such an outlet is planned as the ENCAF, a scant fewhave enough interest to put forth the energy to make an entry in the competititon. This editor could go on in enumerating the many instances of student apathy evident on this campus. The students keep on airing their grievances but when they are afforded the opportunity to alleviate the problems about which they gripe, they do nothing. the east carolinian “Let us dare to read , think , Speak and write .”’ EC Editornin-Ghiel ...........,.5,...

Michael Breslin To the MRC, As the Outgoing SGA Elections Chairman, it is my hope that my successor will have a more workable relationship with the newly elected MRC Vice President and his elections committee that the Men’‘s Residence Council as a whole has been very eager to cooperate with me in every election this year The night before the referendum on the transit system, the MRC elections committee headed by Steve Hall, met and voted not to get students to man the polls on the Hill for the referendum Tuesday. The Committee’s reason was that they were noi notified in time to obtain poll-sitters, | found out late Wednesday that the referendum would be run for sure on Tuesday, April 29, The following day, an article appeared in last Thursday's edition of The East Carolinian stating explicitly when, where, and what time to vote.

It was at this time that the MRC elections committee was called together and they voted not to man the polls. In just two and one half hours, next year’s SGA Elections Chairman and | recruited boys to man the polls for all four dorms. It seems very unlikely that the Lieutenant Governors would have had any trouble at all asking boys to tend the polls for their respective dorms much less four dorms. | might add that three of the four Lieutenant Governors volunteered to sit at the polls Tuesday.
