Journalism department publishes student work By BILL DUDLEY Staff Writer Lawrence J. O'Keefe and Ira L. Baker, journalism professors in the East Carolina University (ECU) English department, are currently preparing the ECU Joumalist for publication the first week of March. The eight page publication, produced with the technical facilities of Fountain head and printed by The Washington News, will contain various kinds of news stories. Campus, environmental, city and county news wili be included, along with features, editorials and information on the journalism program, said O'Keefe. “Ninety percent of the copy was researched and written by joumalism students,” O'Keefe adoed. In reply to a question on distribution, Baker said a mailing list will be compiled for the 400 copies printed. The mailing list will be composed of students, alumni, campus personnel, the administration, the professional North Carolina press, and neighboring institutions who exchange such materials. O'Keefe said a limited press run wes necessary since no school funds were allotted for this project. “The Washington News and the Fountainhead should receive a consider- able amount of credit and praise for their interest and aid in preparing the publication,” said O'Keefe. Miss Peggy Bianchard, formerly a faculty member in the ECU joumalism program, organized the publication in other years, but this is the first time a publication of this type, with student material and a newspaper format, has been tried here, according to O'Keefe. “We are hoping to continue to do this at least once a year,” said O'Keefe. ; 4 -_ si LL A. glee x r) 1 ere ry — ¢ i) AL AWS WEEK Coe.4 DRAFTED } Wet: TRY OUR.

This month's interview is with a man whose freewheeling’ lifestyle has set him apart from the contemporary college “image”.

Say it In a friendly French way, ike “bonjour, Mon ami.” Francoise will appreciate your hello. She is from Angouleme on the southwest coast of France, near Bordeaux. Francoise was selected by the international Institute of Education in New York City as one of 40 French students eligible for assistant teaching jobs in the United States. Francoise is helping the Foreign Langage Department at East Carolina University for one year. She has a Bachelor of Arts degree in both French and English from the University of Bordeaux. Besides assisting in French classes, Francoise is working toward a Masters jeqree in English. She plans to take the necessary exams for her degree this nmer while back in France enjoy sitting in on French classes said Francoise. “| have learned a t deal about American students and e about my own country.” “There is a definite difference between the average American student's ability in a foreign language and that of a French student,’ said Francoise. ‘Foreign language is stressed in French schools beginning in the sixth grade. You must be able to speak a foreign language fluently in Europe if you plan to get a good job.” Aside from leaming about the United States in a classroom, Francoise has traveled throughout America. She has also spent one summer in Maryland and one in California, both in exchange programs DIMENSIONS “New York City is a fascinating place,” said Francoise. “The architecture gives the individual another dimension. The immense size of the city seems beyond the power of creation of man. “France is still a very class conscience country. Your position in society plays an important role in everyday living. “1 think Americans are friendly and the young are especially open-minded,” said Francoise. “Being a visitor to this country Correctional Institute underway at ECU By CINDY KENT Staff Writer Eighteen employees from the North Carolina Department of Correction’s division of prisons are currently enrolled in a training program at ECU's Institute of Correctional Administration. The programs will “increase the management proficiency level in the state department of corrections and various social work professions,” according to Dr Jonn R.

Upon completion of the one-quarter program the students will receive a ertificate and return to fulltime employment These people will receive recognition when they retum to their jobs and preterential consideration will be given to them.” said Ball. VARYING AGES The students, ranging in age from 18 to over 60, were selected to represent 18 different counties.

This is an advantage.” France is a country whose history is steeped in tradition, but some aspects of American society are siowly beginning to emerge in France, according to Berthu. _ ~ “| came to the States to try and understand how Americans think and to experience how they live,” said Francoise. “| have to step out of my French background of customs and practices and into American ways of doing things. “Here at school | listen to the radio more than in France,” said Francoise. “We have only two hours of programed rock music on the radio everyday.

After checking with certain medical, philosophical and speech authorities around campus we have reached the conclusion that there is really no explanation other than personal fears and hang ups. Whether it be jue to lack of confidence or personal pride in one’s own opinion or a fear of rebuttal, the Situation of anonymity in the forum has progressed to the point of necessitating search for a cure lt is understandable, at times, that for one VALID reason or another, persons may Jesire their name to be withheid. In such cases, and for valid reasons, names are withheld -— this is even acceptable practice in the professional worid. However, when it gets to the point that names are requested withhela on 75 percent of the letters to the aditor, then something strange is happening Dpinion is printed on the editorial pages because it is opinion and readers can look there to find the trend of public opinion. However, opinion holds little importance or force when even the writer is afraid to sign his or her name. In other words, if your PINION iS NOt worth standing behind, then why bother to write it down? Certainly readers could form their own opinions and save their time rather than reading a mass of rphaned words floating around on a page tis more important than ever to stand behind your words when important issues are taken up in the Forum. Take for example the muititude of letters calling for support of the referendum on fees increase and the question of student rights. If students are to stand up and be counted, they must, in reality, exist. Unsigned letters could, in theory, be written by one person and therefore be comparable to stuffing the ballot box, counting r nothing 5 t |t unfortunate that at a time when we, the young aduits, should be eager to be Neard and make Our opinions known, that there is a rash of quaking, trembling or embarrassed readers who are afraid to let their fellow students know how they feel? FOUNTAINHEAD tries to play fair with our readers by tacking by-lines on all student written stories and editorials (the editor writes all editorials unless otherwise signed) We hope that participants in the Forum will play just as fair with us, the readers and yourselves. What possibile satisfaction can one receive from seeing his or her opinion in print if he or she has obscured any importance it may have had, by remaining anonymous?

While we take no POSITION on the question of what the additional fees are to be spent for - tacium lights, intramurals or whatever - “e do strongly believe students have a lemocratic right to decide for themselves how their money should be spent. in the last few years, the student ation has come under increasing Popul Ceara nt pee pt RD attack by the government. Government Cut-backs in educational programs, Student loans, and minority programs are only a few ways students are being attacked. Rising tuition and fees as well as world-wide inflation and the inability of many students to find jobs continues to oppress the student population. Only by helping ‘o build a socialist society can Students overcome their oppression and gain their rights in a free society. The Greenville Young Socialist Alliance Supports the ECU students in their fight for their rights and also recommends that the following proposals be considered (1) A free education for everyone who wants one, (2) An annual salary for all students adequate to their needs safeguarded from inflation, (3) Guarante- ed jobs for students on graduation, (4) Recognition of the right of the oppressed national minority communities to contro! their own public affairs including education from kindergarten up, (5) Joint control by students and faculty over hiring and firing of faculty members and administration officials We invite all students to discuss these proposals among themselves and with us. Greenville YSA ‘Free-bird’ If one accepts the convictions of Tim Sullivan and Mike Taylor, the passage of Operation Free-Bird exists as a landmark legislation by the SGA However, upon close scrutiny, the bill shows to he premature, wasteful, and dangerous. The bill is premature because the administration has not taken a stand on the issue; no university committment is necessary until the H.E.W. fall deadline. Action by the SGA would be more effective after the administrative September decision, if necessary. The bill is wasteful because it expends eleven thousand dollars for a very short period of time and effects a minority of the students. Surely the freshmen women could have existed for three more months of limited hours. The dangerous aspect concems the setting of a precedent. !f the administration decides to maintain limited hours next fall, the SGA could be pressured by Operation Free-Bird to fund self-limiting hours for all freshmen - a minimum cost of thirty-three thousand dollars. Mr. Taylor maintains that the university ran out on its responsibility. The adminis- tration simply delayed their decision. Now, the SGA has shown that they will pay for self-limited hours; therefore, why should the university spend their money for the same issue next year? The administration has successfully delegated that responsibility to the SGA - and out of our pockets A final point relates to the uproar over the lack of student input conceming the five dollar increase for stadium lights and intramural. Should not all the students have a voice on the expenditure of one dollar per student per quarter that Operation Free-Bird involves? The close vote on this past Monday shows the division of feeling within the SGA. It should be pointed out that five opponents were absent at the time of the vote In conclusion, Tim Sullivan is to be complimented for the active interest he has shown in his electorate. But he has not the experience or foresight to perceive the long-term implications of Operation Free-Bird. To Mike Taylor, what is your conception of a spectacular legisiative year? One excellent example of a constructive SGA legislation is the Student-Faculty Relationship Program And, finally to the freshmen women, | do support self-limiting hours - but not at our expense Robert M. Sullivan Wrestling To Fountainnead : | feel our wrestling team is being unjustly treated by the Fountainhead sports section. They have remained unbeaten throughout a tough schedule and they can still only manage about one tenth the space our basketball tearn receives. i realize that wrestling is not as popular as basketball, but when a team is ranked eleventh in the nation they deserve more than one tenth of a school paper's sports section. | also realize that our basketball team is really doing weil. | am extremely proud of their achievernents this season However, | feel that by beefing up our wrestling program with a little literary support our gym could be full on key home matches and the recognition that has long dodged Coach John Welbom and his wrestlers could finally become a reality. Kevin B. Thomas At last To Fountainhead Due to the admirable work of our class president, Tim Sullivan, finally our chance is coming to be regarded equally with the men of our class and the upper-classmen. Tim’s obvious dedi- cation to his promise of fighting for freshmen women's self limiting hours has finally been put to a vote, and, we are happy to say, was victorious in the SGA. This could never have been possible without our president fighting with all his might. So from all the freshmen women to you, Tim, many thanks! Keep up the fabulous work! We certainly hope the Board of Administration considers Tim's hard work and all the work of the students of East Carolina, past and present, who have worked to get this bill passed, in their final decision Jayme Glover Connie Rose Oops To Fountainhead : Ms. Speight’s letter regarding Robert Morningstars review of the TAR RIVER POETS mentions several minor flaws in that “epic of literary criticism” but fails to penetrate the major ones. Any critical analysis that begins by FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 6. NO. 35/18 FEBRUARY 1975 ] T asserting that, unlike novels or short stories, poetry is to be judged subjectively, only as a matter of taste, Is, at best, a crippled analysis from the star If this were the case only egocentricity served to motivate such a critical perspective A grave injustice is done to both poetry and criticism if this admission is allowed to bury any attempt at an objective criteria for judging poetry The irony is that, admitted or no, Morningstar had a quite definite criteria in mind. He should not be upset to know that the assumptions upon which his criteria is based dates back to 1596. In that year Sir Phillip Sidney first advanced the idea that a poem may be judged in two distinct areas: the technical skill of the communication and the worth and value of the idea communicated. There is no section of the review in which this criteria is not manifestly operative Morningstar also needs to realize that delicate use of language is hardly the only standard by which we may recognize whether a work is “poetic”. Shakespeare, Milton, Yeats were not, at their best, by any means “delicate” Admittedly, the TAR RIVER POETS is not a major collection of works. It has probably never been so. It is, however, a tool, an outlet for not only talented poets but also potentialiy talented poets. The latter will result in much poetry that is less than excellent, some barely publishabie. The reason for this is simple: it is to allow critics such as Momingstar to do what they feei they must do in order to educate these writers in terms of higher standards of excellence. Morningstar's review is certainly valuable in this regard though it is weakened by apologetics which are totally unnecessary if the critic is confident that he knows what constitutes excellent poetry. We must congratulate him for taking the TAR RIVER POETS and poetry in general as seriously and fastidiously as he did. But, alas, with his apology, his critical “epic” is reduced to a “lyrical” Status with a use of language which is hardly celicate or tactful. “Whorelike’? Come now. Is that a sensitive use of the language? Hubert Homybone Athletics To Fountainhead : Attention: Greg Pingston No one accused the football team of Proposing the idea of light expansion or increases in fees. | don't dislike the football team; | do dislike the favoritism shown to the gridiron sport. Furthermore, the Athietic Department consistently shows their emphasis on football and negligence towards the otiver sports, ag., take a gander at the budgets. Congratulations on your opposition to the fee increase and your support for energy conservation. Perhaps if some football team members were to point their disapproval to the Board of Trusteas, the administration, and Minges, then maybe some deaf ears will listen to the legitimate complaints of the students. You see, Greg, sports does appear to contro! the finances at ECU - and other universities. “Old Roman” ] 2 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 6, NO. 35/18 FEBRUARY 1975 en Transportation for elderly persons proposed We are responsible for getting senior itizens the services they need to keep them independent,” she said Transportation is the biggest problem The Citizens for Total Positive facing Greenville’s elderly persons Government (CTPG) put together a plan according to Mrs. Sue Singleton, nutrition nvolving the purchase of the vans and the for the Mid-East Commission hiring of two part-time drivers.

Options under consideration include a variety of co-ed housing, dormns that ~ provide a “Quiet Hall’, where residents can make their own regulations regarding noise, then live in peace and quiet, and the elimination of freshman dorms per se; the alternative being a percentage of upper-classmen and freshmen assigned to each residence hall The committee has also been looking INtO IMproved and expanded food Service, telephone service and laundry facilities Naturally, the committee needs to have input from stucents living in the residence halls, and they hope to get that through questionnaires circulating in ali residence halls this week.

It is called college recruiting Over the last five years, the college ranks have been subject to many scandals and illegal recruiting” practices which stem from the courting of high school athletes by colleges seeking to greaten their names Along with these college infractions have come professional intrusions, primarily nto the basketbal! area of college athletics What the problem seems to boil down to !s which would one rather have, protessionalized amateur athletics or amateurized professional athletics In a recent interview, a top NCAA official said the college irregularities in recruiting were not in the norm, but rather in the minority What is considered the norm. Okey, a college wants an athlete. This athlete is of more extreme ability than his peers. How does this school go about getting this athlete? Well, the methods vary, but they are not all legal ones Who knows what went on when the colleges were trying to woo Moses Malone. Maybe the University of Maryland and several other schools were lucky that the Utah Stars stole Malone away from the college ranks before he ever stepped foot on a basketbal) cour The increased irregularities in recruiting has many fine examples to make use of as ate. Yet many deal, not with recruiting but, with the altering of a player's transcripts to make nim eligible As the Washington Post quoted one college official as saying, “sooner or later a rospect will Qualify Lately the top college basketball stars have been the players with the greatest suspicion towards their acquisition to their school. Three years ago, both North Carolina State and Southwestern Louisiana were reprimanded for recruiting violations. Their penalty? One year ineligibility from post-season competition in any tournaments. The players they acquired through these violation procedures: Dwight Lamar and David Thompson In all probability those schools probably felt the penalty was lesser than the crime Yertainly State without Thompson would not be equal to State with Thompson Now the NCAA has cracked down on Tennessee and Clemson. Well, actually not cracked down, but they have tarnished the name of these schools by mentioning them in nvestigations. Again the players involved are of the top-name variety Tennessee's investigation evolved around freshman whiz Bernard King. It seems that Mr King’s transcripts had been changed to assure he would make it into the university, but the transcripts when corrected showed that King would have made it anyway So what did the NCAA do? Nothing. Bernard King still plays. Does a robber gain remorse by returning his money after he has been caught? It seems the NCAA still has not gotten off the fence. In this case, they did basketball! a grave injustice by letting the Volunteers off scot-free. Or did they? Where might have King ended up had it not been for the altering of his grades (his status must have been shaky if his grades were altered)? it's hard to say, but probably not in college, or at least a four-year school. How does one weigh the players caliber and importance as an athlete to a player's caliber and importance as a student? The problem of college recruiting has been a perplexing one. What course of action should the NCAA take? They must choose between amateurism and disguised professionalism. They will lose players to the professional ranks both ways and some players will not qualify schoiastically if the requirement rules are strengthened, but whatever choice they take, they should play the all the way and not halfway.
