It would be difficult to live in
Greenville and not be aware of
the latest evening spectator
sport: fires.

university property was
surrounded by intrigue

about my identification. A

I agreed they were indeed
thorough and walked down the
steps toward the library. A
police car stopped and shined a
spotlight in my face. The
spotlight asked me a few
questions. Told me there had
been a phone threat of fire on
campus and all the buildings
were being guarded.

without further detection. I
drove toward the fire. Cars were
bumpcr-to-bumper moving in
the same general direction.
People were walking toward the

and pointing.
I finally managed to get up to
the fire and find a parking place.
The firemen were professional
and courageous. Some were
standing on top of tank trucks,
squirting water on the burning
tires. Others were standing
between large tanks and fire,
wetting down the area to
prevent the tanks from
exploding.
The crowd of onlookers
seemed to be in a festive mood.

I walked back to my car. A
man was having trouble staiting
his car. I helped him get it
started.
"Where yah frum?" he asked.
I told him
"Things are going to get
wurse he informed me.
I asked him if he thought the
fires were planned.
"Yep. And there's going to be
fires every night, and things are
gonna get wurse between white
and black and this country's

it's over. I carry a gun and
knife he informed me, "and I

He told me l should buy a
gun, pointing at my hair as if to
prove his point "It's you that's
gonna get it first he said, "the
way you look. That long hair.
Any 'trouble and they'll come
after you first because of the
way you look"
As I drove away I wondered
if only certain people go to
watch fires, or if fires bring out
certain characteristics hidden in
each of us. It's probably an idle
question. If revolution by fire
comes, it won't matter much
one way or another

WASHINGTON (AP)
President Nixon says that while
he may not always agree with
what he reads in the newspapers
he recognizes an unfettered
press is a "guardian of
freedom
The President's words of
praise came Monday night
during informal remarks at a
White House reception for
members of the International
Federation of Newspapers.
Earlier in the day the
publishers' group had listened to
Vice President Spiro T. Agnew
revew his criticism of some
elements of the nation's news
media.
The vice president, without
citing specific examples, said
some of the nation's most
influential newspapers and
television networks had
abandoned the practice of
"telling both sides of the
story
The President in his later talk
said it would be an unhappy
situation for the United States
"if we lived in a country where
we did not have that free
press
American government leaders
know their every decision will
"be held up to the closest
scrutiny and the most effective
possible criticism the
President added.
This, he said, "is essential to
the survival of freedom

Agnew criticizes Rhodes
JAC McCRACKEN, summa cum laude graduate of the
School of Music, is congratulated
First Fulbright scholar
ECU's first Fulbright scholar,
Jac McCracken, is a young man
who has been a budding,
promising and brilliant concert
pianist almost from the time he
began study of music at the age
of nine.
But still it was no easy road
to valedictorian of the ECU
class of 1970 and a summa cum
laude degree from the School of
Music topped by the prized
Fulbright award for a full year's
study in Italy
Now 22 years old, tall and
blond Jac McCracken of Oak
City. N.C paraphrases
Paderewski in telling about it.
Padercwski is supposed to have
said musical ability may require
some talent, but it's nine tenths
hard work and sometimes
requires practicing 18 hours a
day.
HARD WORK
McCracken kept no record of
his long hours of practice but
says "it's been a matter of
working very hard He adds.
"I've been playing in
competitions ever since I
began
His list of activities, awards
and honors is lengthy. A few of
them include winning an East
Carolina Merit Scholarship,
1966-70; performing the
Khachaturian Concerto with the
Charleston. S.C Symphony in
1968; seven performances of the
Liszt Concerto in E flat with the
North Carolina Symphony in
1969; the Ravel Left hand
Concerto with the ECU
Symphony in 1970: a full
fellowship as a Performing
Participant in the International
Bach Society Advanced Study
Summer session in 1969: thud
place winner in the national
finals of the National
federation o' Music Clubs
Student Musicians Auditions.
1969; and numerous other
competitions and recitals.
McCracken became East
Carolina's first male
valedictorian and led the
traditional acedemic procession
in Commencement exercises on
May 31.
VALEDICTORIAN
For the past seven years he
has been a pupil of Dr. Robert
Carter, Professor of Music,
having started under Dr. Carter's
tutelage as a sophomore in high
school. In 1966 he was
valedictorian of his high school
graduating class.
Last January he began study
with Byron Janis of New York.
This study will continue
through the summer.
In addition to his practice,
McCracken expects to spend
some of the summer "brushing
up" on Italian before leaving for
Rome in August In Italy he will
study at the Conservatory of St.
Cecilia and be taught by several
noted concert pianists including
Guido Ngosti.
He contemplates a number of
possible piano competitions in
Europe.
The Fulbright-Hays study
awards under government
sponsorship are reciprocal
agreement for study abroad
with other governments. As a
Fulbright recipient, he will
represent the United States
abroad, says Dr. John B. Ebbs.

DEI ROIT (AP) Vice
President Spiro T. Agnew
criticized a young member of
the President's Commission on
Campus Unrest last week and
said if remarks attributed to
Joseph Rhodes Jr. are accurate
he should resign.
Rhodes. 22. a junior fellow at
Harvard University was
appointed Saturday by
President Nixon to serve on the
commission headed by former
Republican Gov. William W.
Scranton of Pennsylvania.
PROVOKED VIOLENCE
In an interview published
Monday, the New York Times
quoted Rhodes as saying the
Nixon administration has
provoked campus violence.
"The kids have got to feel
someone has the power to really
investigate the grave charges
being brought against the
government
Commenting on the interview
at a news conference. Agnew
said: "Rhodes lost no time in
letting the public know how he
intends to utilize his new post
to lift him from obscurity of an
unpublicized position to
national notoriety
Agnew emphasized his
remarks about Rhodes should
not be interpreted as an implied
criticism of the President. He
also emphasized that his
criticism of Rhodes was based
on what he had read in the
newspaper.
?'Rhodes showed a
transparent bias that will make
him counterproductive to the
work of the commission the
vice president said.
"Unless the Times reporter is
in error. Mr. Rhodes should
resign
Rhodes was quoted in the
Times' interview as saying he
feels he has a "solemn
responsibility" to prevent
further deaths on college
campuses.
STOP KILLING
"I'll do anything even talk
to the devil if I can stop
people from being killed
Rhodes was quoted as saying by
the Times.
Agnew was in Detroit to
speak at a Republican party
fund-raising dinner. He told
4.000 Republicans at the
SlOO-a-plate dinner Monday
night that a group he calls the
"emotionaries" is trying to
corral the right to dissent during
this year's elections.
He said rational dissent and
the proper use of rhetoric are
required to bring "progressive
partisanship" to the campaigns.
"We are entering our
traditional period of intensified
partisanship before an election
campaign. Whether that period
will be productive of intelligent
challenge and debate, or sterile
and conducive to angry
shouting, is a test that we as a
people will have to take he
said.
Greenville citizens hold
Peace Vigil every week
There will be a "Vigil for
Peace" every Wednesday from
noon to 1 p.m. at the United
States Post Office on Greene
Street.
The Greenville United
Citizens for Peace, led by Mrs.
Lou Paul of Greenville,
announced that they intend to
continue the vigil each week
until all U.S. troops are
withdrawn from Cambodia.
The vigils began as silent
protests against the war. but
they are not now silent vigils.
The group invites anyone to
come by and discuss the subject
with them. Leaflets and other
meeting of the First
Congressional District Voter
Education Project voted
unanimously to support the
Greenville vigil.
People come from as far away
as Kinston to stand with the
group every week. Twelve to 25
persons have attended the vigil
every week, including one
woman in her 70s who has not
missed one of the six or seven
vigils to date.
The Greenville United
Citizens for Peace, invite the
public to participate in their
efforts to peacefully end the
war. Students as well as older
information are passed out by members of the community are

By ROBGRINGLE
There is a disturbing tendency among record reviewers and
listeners to over classify music, to hang labels on certain types of
music.
Mention soul music, for instance, and most people at ECU think
of top 40 radio and relatively straight, clean-cut people doing the
bop while drinking beer.
Mention underground rock, and most people think of FM radio,
long hair, incense, candles and pot. The value of music, as music, is
lost along the way.
People, for instance, who really dig Janis Joplin don't listen to
Aretha Franklin, and vice versa. Music is the closest thing to a
universal language we have, and should be judged as music first. The
labels and classification of music should act as a clarification, not a
standard for judgment.
ACAPPELA
Now the Persuasions are. first and foremost, five talented singers
who've been around for awhile. "Acappcla" (Straight RS6394) is
the name of their album. It means, basically, sung without
instrumental accompaniment. (If you can't afford instruments, you
had better be satisfied with your voice or start looking for another
line of work.)
Maybe you'll get together with some others and start sounding
real soulful. Maybe the Man will "discover" you some day and offer
you a recording contract. Maybe you accept. Maybe in the studio
the Man will say hey-that's outasight but if you want to make it big
we gotta clean up your material a little bit. Add a little brass and a
violin here and there So you cut a record and after all the
processing and additions it sounds like a hundred other songs, and
not much like you anymore at all.
The Persuasions never made it this way. Frank Zappa offered
them a record contract, and Frank Zappa isn't the Man. One thing
he promised the Persuasions was total artistic freedom. The result is
a fine example of acappela on record.
NO INTRUSIONS
The Persuasions sing soul music their way with no intrusions
from slick record producers or weary studio instrumentalists.
Perhaps the most successful cut on this album is. surprisingly
enough "Old Man River" recorded live with an audience of
enthusiastic brothers and sisters. Th s old show tune gives one of the
finest bass singers anywhere. James Hayes, a chance to solo.
The Other songs are almost as hackneyed and familiar as ' Old
Man River but they deserve your attention. These soulful
renditions of old songs are in many ways essential to an
understanding of the true talent that lies beneath the quagmire o
other soul groups who are commercially-hyped, over-produced and
shamelessly white-washed.
Back in the early 60s synthetic folk music captivated the US ot
A Dozens of well-scrubbed musicians with acoustic guitars, levis
and V-neck sweaters cut hundreds of albums and cajoled audiences
to "sing along" The popularity of the movement was doomed from
US TheSidiom was limiting, the supply of traditional folk songs
anything but limitless. After a time, audiences tired of the seemingly
endless supply of New-Plastic Ramblers, or whoever.

"their" songs by mumbling ' Next we wanna do fer yew a number
we learnt from an ol" song by Woody or whatever.
Record buyers soon started hunting for the original versions, and
record companies always on the lookout for ways of making easy
money, gathered together all their old 78s, "rechanneled" them for
stereo listening.
Many "folk singers" faded back into the woodwork where they
unquestionably belonged Others, those with real talent and creative
writing abilities prevailed. Among these Simon and Garfunkel.
Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez.
Perhaps because these creative talents have prevailed and
prospered, record companies try to find and record other "creative'
folkies. At any rate, record companies periodically push
"refreshing" "original" folkish talents onto the unsuspecting public.
JILL WILLIAMS
"Jill Williams (RCA Victor LSP 4314). songs and lyrics by Jill
Williams, is fairly representative of where the "new" folkies are at:
highly introspective lyrics of an apparently autobiographical nature,
highly repetitive music. It all adds up to cuteness and little else.
Essra Mohawk is. on the other hand, anything but cute sounding
or pseudo-folkish. Her album "Primordial Lovers" (Reprise R6214)
has an underlying tough bitchiness. She always keeps on top of her
material, exercising a control which enables her to avoid the
theatrical excesses of. say, Janis Joplins.
Miss Mohawk's voice is an instrument of destruction and
salvation in itself. Witness "I Have Been Here Before" for example:
a song which slowly builds to a virtual orgasmic release, and then
fades back into a bitter sweet sadness of tone, the perfect musical
counterpart to post-coital depression:
Please don't mind my bite
Flesh is out of sight
The voice snaps and growls. A few minutes later, a sad world
weary lady reiterates:
1 have been here before
Now I'm here with you
in a drawn out voice hitting notes in unexplored territory
somewhere between sharps and flats.
Each song is a complex mixture of musical changes. "Looking
Forward To The Dawn" begins with a pure, crisp, vibrating soprano
voice, and moves with remarkable ease into a broad gospel idiom
with lyrics which make all the difference:
To tear you to pieces
Is knowing the pain
And the joy that is Jesus.
"Lion On The Wing" is perhaps at the heart of this strangely
beautiful album, and perhaps explains all the bitter sweet
ambiguities:
The sound of your breath when we make love
Is the music I like the best
And it makes me wonder
Why 1 ever make love with anyone but you.
Oh yes the instrumental back up varies from Essra and her
piano to Essra and organ, electric guitar, vibraphone sax. french
horn trumpets, electric bass, drums, trombone, and oboe all ot
which might intimidate a lesser talent, but not Essra Mohawk
I refuse to attempt to catagorize Essra Mohawk s music. It is not
rock jazz. folk. soul, blues, classic, country, nor eastern. It defies
stereotyped labels; but should. I think, appeal to anyone who enjoys
Primordial Lovers" will wear well over the years and I think
you'll return to it again and again long after you have grown tired of
other recordings.

Greek Interviews
By WALTER WHITTEMORE
This article was originally
intended to provide Greeks an
opportunity to learn what
people think about ECU's social
fraternities and sororities.
Unfortunately, the majority of
people interviewed declined
permission to use their names.
Despite this unexpected
development, there were several
worthwhile and interesting
observations made which bear
reporting. The ones which
follow of course are those which
were most frequently
mentioned.
People generally agreed that
social fraternities and sororities
provide certain benefits to
students. These of course are in
the form of companionship and
friendship. One professor noted
that students often come t
ECU without a single friend or
campus. Joining a fraternity oi
sorority often provides a ready
solution to this loneliness.
A graduate student pointed
out that Greeks make other
contributions on campus.
Notably, these are the
contributions made to that
mythical creature, "school
spirit" It was pointed out that
Greeks never go unnoticed at
athletic contests, that they are
very active during Homecoming,
and that they are responsible for
many big dances.
However, most people would
grant social fraternity and
sororities credit for little else.
When asked about Greek
community projects, one Senior

Are there typical fraternity men?

Will Rogers used to preface
his droll comments on Congress
with the excuse. "All I know is
what I read in the papers
Depending solely on the press
for knowledge of college
fraternities does not tell the
whole story.
Too often, with the
fraternity, as with any other
traditional institutions, printed
news is not news. Journalists
tend to play up collegiate
high-jinks, implying that all
Maternities are frivolous.
Is there such a thing as a
"typical fraternity man?'
According to traditional
concepts, the youth who joins a
Greek-letter society is forthwith
subjected to group pressures
whuh turn him into a
stereotyped conformist in his
dress, speech, habits even
thinking.
TRUE CONCEPTS
Sadly enough, these concepts
arc true to some extent. It is
with these concepts in mind
that the conclusion can be
brought forth: As they exist
now, fraternities are dead.
What the fraternity must
offer the college man today is
not just a social center, not just
a ?snobbish" group, calling
themselves the socially elite.
Fraternities must re-assess
themselves, the ultimate goal
being "that of providing for its
members an opportunity to
preserved their own identities and
their individuality, which,
regretfully, is becoming
increasingly difficult in this era
of multi-university and the
"computerized student They
furthermore must condition
themselves to stimulate the
intellectual as well as the social
MODERNIZE
During the surge oi
free-thinking that has become so
popular on campuses today
(ECU is no exception). Greek
systems have been slow to
"modernize As a result
memberships have slumped, and
ideals have become clouded.
With the introduction of drugs
(marijuana, emphetarmnes, etc.)
college men have found it
burdensome to conform to the
strict regulations imposed by
their brotherhood. The typical
beer busts" are becoming
extinct
The past year has seen a rapid
increase in hair lengths, often
accompanied with beards,
among fraternity members. This
too is conformity: however, it is
the moral and intellectual ideals
that go along with this
conformity that now must be
added. The ultimate survival or
death of the fraternity system
will depend upon their ability to
challenge the individual.
providing him with a means to
achieve scholarship,
brotherhood and a sense of
relevance to college life.
EXPENSIVE
The luxury o' a fraternity is
an expensive one. National and
chaptei dues normally involve at
least ten percent o' the total
expenses in college life. To sa
that fraternities are cheaper than
independent social activities is
an outright lie. The fact is
however, that fraternities
remain a selective group of men
to share their interests. After all.
all societies arc selective with
individuals tending to associate
with those people who are more
his peers. In this aspect.
fraternities are "typical
Fraternity chapters being
composed of humans are
fallable and often imperfect. In
this respect they are not unlike
colleges or churches or
governments. Most fraternities,
like most persons, could do
better. As a social institution
fraternities probably will not
die, at least not in the near
future, but in order to grow and
produce they must change.
They can no longer sit idly and
e.xpect to prosper.

Sororities provide new
shine for new decade
By BECKY NOBLE
Now that we have a new
decade before us. let's take out
our old treasures and buff the
dull tarnish off the 60s until our
ideas and institutions shine with
a new glow for the 70s.
Our sororities have a new
shine for the 70s. but it wasn't
an overnight thing.
The changes that have
occurred and will continue to
occur in sororities are the same
changes that all college students
have undergone and will
continue to undergo.
Their opinions have become
more liberal, and they no longer
submit to the standards of an
older generation without
question.
The days are fading fast when

breeze.
And there are thousands of
independents who mirror this
same change.
Yes. sororities have changed,
but only the way everyone else
has changed.
They still have their same
ideals and goals to which every
sister, upon initiation, binds
herself.
These ideals entail such
easiersaid-than-done equalities
as tolerance, sisterhood,
scholarship, and personal
integrity.
Any organization entails
responsibility.
During college anyone who
adds to the task of maintaining
good grades the responsibility of
being loyal to and working for a
sorority builds her character,
and thus has a strong base on
which to stand in our working
society.

Monday, June 22. 1970. Fountainhead, Page 9
of business and director of the
leadership Fellows at FXU.
attributes the success of the
program here to several factors.
"We kept an eye on the other
schools said Conley, and
learned from their weaknesses.
:or instance, UNC spent all
their money on administration
and left too little for the
students themselves
The program here is very
unstructured with practically no
"chain of bureaucracy. The
ijtimale success or failure of the
program rests with the student
participants themselves.
GRANT
The Leadership Fellows
program itself was orginally
funded by a three-year grant
from the Smith Richardson
Foundation. Presently it
receives funds from Burlington
Industries. Duke Power co
North Carolina National Bank
and Wachovia Bank, in addition
to the. Richardson Foundation.
The Foundation has no stated
purposes or rigid goals except
those of "leadership selection
and training nevertheless, both
the students and the companies
derive mutual benefit from the
program.
The Institute awards no
scholarships, grants or loans, as
such. Instead it offers its
student selectees a chance to
work in an internship program
each summer in a field of their
own choosing. Jobs range from
research, social work and
writing to blueberry picking and
community organizing.
JOBS
According to one participant.
"These jobs give you a chance
to do something you really want
to do for a summer, rather than
sit on your ass behind a desk
from nine to five everyday
During the year, students
plan as many educational trips
to various points in the country
as funds will allow. Last year
excursions were made to
Boston. New York and
Washington, D.C. Weekly
dinners were also held, among
other things, to allow students
to air their problems and
grievances.
QUALIFICATIONS
How does one qualify for
acceptance into the Leadership
Fellows? Initially, Conley
compiles the high school records
of all prospective ECU freshmen
in order to spot potential
leaders. The chosen few are
further screened by the Board
of Trustees of the North
Carolina Leadership Institute,
with final acceptance coming
after a personal interview with
the trustees. Their criterion for
judgment is based primarily on
the applicant's potential for
leadership, based on his past
record.
CHANGES
Having undergone several
changes, the program now
concentrates on freshmen and
sophomores because nearly all
summer internship programs are
restricted to juniors and seniors
and this gives students a chance
to develop from the moment
they enter college.
SEE COUNSELOR
Any students, especially
freshmen, are encouraged to
talk with Conley in his office in
Rawl Building if they are
interested in the Leadership
Fellows program, regardless of
whether or not they received a
letter of invitation. Many
potential leaders cannot be
spotted before entering college,
so if one has a feeling that
college is more than merely
going to class, studying, and
hoping for a decent grade, then
perhaps there is a place for him
among the North Carolina
Leadership Fellows.

Agnews leadership
is of inferior quality
"Government of the people, by the people, in spite
of the people, but never for the people! Dissent must
be destroyed; all must worship the government, and
all must sacrifice for the country
Spiro has done it again. This time the lire-breathing
administrative strong-man has attacked a young
member of the President's Commission on Campus
Unrest. Joseph Rhodes. Rhodes has sinned against the
country by rufusing to be an administrative puppet
and he even had the audacity to say that the
administration has provoked campus violence.
A New York Times interview quoted the 26 year
old Rhodes as saying that: The kids have got to feel
someone has the power to really investigate the grave
charges being brought against the government
Spiro hit at what he termed as Rhodes' use of his
position to rise to "national notoriety He also
criticized the Harvard junior fellow for his
transparent bias that will make him
counterproductive to the work of the commission
Perhaps the noble Mr. Agnew is afraid that the
commission will find some truth in the words of
Rhodes. Or maybe he is worried that Mr. Nixon is
going to try to get some men into his decaying
government that are not yes-men. but who actually
have the gall to think for themselves in this fine
"constitutional democracy
Agnew's fears, however, are entirely ungrounded.
From Rhodes, who could never be called a radical,
this nation has nothing to fear. But from Agnew. an
irrational bureaucrat, this nation has much to fear.
Men like Spiro do not belong in the government of
this nation. He is no longer even a bad joke. Agnew
should resign! The government of this nation needs a
higher quality in its leadership.
Supreme Court's draft
decision is laudable
The U.S. Supreme Court last week struck another
blow for freedom of conscience in regards to the
Selective Service System. The Court greatly expanded
the concept of conscientious objection by recognizing
that a man may "have deep moral and ethical
objections to war while not being religious in the
formal and traditional sense The decision not only
reflected the growing trend in America towards draft
resistance or objection, but also the spirit of
disinterest of youth toward the established rehgtons
of their fathers.
This decision of the Court is a much-needed
expansion of the interpretation of current Selective
Service laws. Now the peacetime draft should be
declared unconstitutional!

Revolution or Evolution?
By CATHY STERLING
Editor's note: North Carolina
State Universit student body
President Cathy Sterling spoke at a
discussion group attended by some
25 persons at the Baptist Student
Center Thursday night. Her
comments are those of a
movement-oriented student, relative
not only to her campus, but to most
others. The text of her speech, which
was followed by a question and
answer period, is reprinted in part
below. The general topic of her
comments was: "Revolution in
Education
First, there is in my mind a
difference between the
REVOLUTION IN
EDUCATION and the general
state of campus unrest which
seems to be becoming an annual
Spring campus event. The
outbursts of violence so widely
publicized are manifestations of
concern, but they are more
from frustration than from a
desire to find constructive,
positive solutions to the
problems which are causing the
concern. Far less widely
publicized are the efforts of a
growing number of students
who are finding the means and
methods of modifying the
University as an institution
peacefully, lawfully, and
internally through what you
might call REVOLUTION, but
which I prefer to call
ACCELERATED EVOLUTION.
NEGETIVEVS POSITIVE
The difference in terms is
more than one of semantics; it is
evidence of a difference in
attitudes, the difference in a
negative vs. a positive approach.
While REVOLUTION conotates
disruption and possible violence,
EVOLUTION can be viewed as
a natural normal process.
ACELERATED
EVOLUTIONsimply identifies
the degree of urgency and
intensity with which we as
students feel the necessity of
bringing about change to keep
pace with the accelerated tempo
of contemporary life within the
American society today.
General explanations for the
underlying causes for student
unrest can be divided into
several categories:
First, the conflict between
the young and old the
celebrated Generation Gap
has been argued both from the
standpoint of natural rebellion
in youth who act out their
feelings by attacking tradition
and institutions, and also from
the standpoint of excessive
parental permissiveness in the
upbringing of their children.
Neither of these explanations
coincide with studies which
have shown that student
activists tend to come from a
highly principled family culture
that emphasizes reasoning and
persuasion as well as
independence in thought and
action. Often the leaders of
campus action groups were
former boy scouts, former high
school leaders, former active
church members, in short, true
"children of the American
Dream A student leader finds
himself labled "subversive"
because he cannot reconcile the
high ideals taught in his school,
church, and by his parents, with
the actions of the society he
sees around him. Americanism
the qualities of liberty,
equality, and justice appears
to be a faded and torn facsimile
of his childhood ideals, almost
unrecognizable.
Secondly, there is a drive
among students, who are
socially maturing in a television
world of instant awareness and
instant analysis to find means to
feel socially and personally
useful and relevant. College is
felt as a forced extension of
adolescence, as a means for
society to prolong the period of
"second-class citizenship The
pressures which drive students
into college are often other than
the primary desire to gain an
education.
AUTHORITY
Thirdly, authority, as it has
been traditionally held and
exercised; no longer commands
automatic respect. Students and
young faculty take little for
granted. Thus the traditional
campus governing systems are
no longer appreciated as
relevant, and campus activists
are working toward direct
participation, or at least
legitimate representation, in a
truly responsive governmental
system. University
administrators, in their failure
to involve other elements of the
campus community in working
out solutions to common
problems, set themselves in the
unfortunate and unnecessary
role of repressors. By choice or
circumstances, they become the
symbol of opposition, and the
decisions rendered too often
appear arbitrary and piecemeal.
In the view of the activist
