News of the Week in Review
The week of Junior Weekend was jammed full of
news, the biggest of which for most students was Jun
ior Weekend itself the Canoe Fete, the All-Campus
Sing, the Mothers’ Breakfast, the awards luncheon and
a visit with Mom.
It all seemed to go without a hitch, except of course
for the rain which moved the luncheon inside, to Me
Arthur Court, for the first time in several years.
There were the usual complaints about the slow pace
of the Canoe Fete, of the tappings during the luncheon
and even of the All-Campus Sing. But the crowds
seemed bigger than ever, and they had to close the
gates at the Canoe Fete, even with people standing four
and five abreast along the bank in front of the stands.
But despite the smoothness which characterized the
events and even despite the huge crowds, for some it
was. a time of questioning. The sign in the special events
office on the third floor of the Student Union must have
summed it up best, “Canoe Fete Isn’t an activity, it’s a
a way of life." Maybe the individual who wrote the sign
didn’t realize what he was saying, and maybe he did.
But we are sure that some of the seniors who have seen
four years of student effort on the Fete and the Sing,
who have seen hours and hours and hours of student
time go into each float, into each of the 31 song teams
which competed to get into the finals, and into the or
ganization and administration of the weekend itself
must have questioned the educational utility of the
weekend, perhaps even questioned its very existence.
But if you didn’t have Junior Weekend, what about
Homecoming? And if you didn't have Junior Weekend
and Homecoming, Dad's Weekend would have to go,
wouldn't it? And if you didn't have Junior Weekend
and Homecoming and Dad's Weekend, how would you
decide who was to be selected for the honoraries? And
how could our students learn to become effective ad
ministrators and organization men? Gosh, maybe it is
a way of life.
Maybe there were also a few small voices who were
beginning to question that way of University life.
New Constitution
The ASUO Senate finally began to move toward a
revised constitntion this past week. Several motions re
garding representation and elections passed the Senate
Thursday night and will be referred to the student
body in a general election now set for May 21.
Long-awaited revisions in this out-dated document,
will, we are sure, be accepted by the general student
body. However, some have questioned the wisdom of
revising it one part at a time. The constitutional com
mittee, appointed by ASUO President Phil Sherburne,
feels that the part concerning elections should be
passed this Spring since it will take effect next year.
The other parts to be revised are not so concerned with
timing of events like elections.
Campsite or Classrooms
The Student Development Drive for a campsite for
recreational and educational facilities fell short of its
goal according to reports Thursday.
.Some in the recreational area greeted the news with
dismay, blaming the psychological effect of tuition rais
es, tight-fisted students, or the feeling on the part of
students that a good camp could not be established
through such a drive.
Others, with perhaps a little more insight, pointed
the finger at the project itself. A camp, primarily for
recreational purposes which would require much more
of student monies than could be provided by just this
one drive seemed to many unnecessary. To others, it
seemed obviously contradictory to the pleas now being
made by the State Board of Higher Education for build
ing facilities for academic purposes. Why spend a large
chunk of student monies for such a project, they
reasoned, when it looks as if the University will be in
dire need of such funds for more valid purposes, such
as the construction of classrooms.
Final figures have not been released for the drive as
of yet. We would hate to see the failure of this drive
doom such drives for the future. For with a purpose
more in line with an educational institution, the drive
could be quite beneficial. Former ASUO President Neil
Goldschmidt, has, in the past, talked about the possi
bility of such a drive, endowing a faculty chair. To
many, such a drive would be much more in line with
the financial squeeze the University may well find itself
in after the legislature adjourns this year.
Only Seven
Somewhat quietly, seven students petitioned for dele
gates to NSA, the National Student Conference to be
held in Bloomington, Indiana this summer. Five will
be elected.
The small number was disappointing to many, prn
marily because it was hoped that a highly competitive
election would make University students more respon
sible to their constituents on national and international
matters that come before the Congress.
However, if the delegates are effective, their main
function this first year win be to report back to the
University with an objective evaluation of the merits
of the organization for this associated student body.

fees from participating U S. com
panies which are handled through
AIESEC-U.S., Inc., a New York
non-profit membership corpora

THE INTERNATIONAL organ
ization, formed in 1948 by stu
dents in eseven European coun
tries, today embraces 38 coun
tries on five continents and has
provided almost 20,000 exchange
traineeships.
The program offers a student
an opportunity for six weeks to
six months to observe at first
hand a foreign country's econo
mic system in action. It offers re
muneration sufficient to cover liv
ing and incidental expenses.
A total of 260 students across
the United States were selected
for participation in the program
this summer.
VANISHING
AMERICAN?
For the sake of your future
and the future of your coun
try, let’s fervently hope not!
But the sad fact is that too
many gifted teachers are leav
ing our colleges for better
paying positions.
The cause is fundamental.
They simply cannot make ends
meet on their present low sal
aries. And, much as they love
their work, they are forced to
seek jobs in other fields.
In the face of this discour
aging trend, more classrooms
keep getting more crowded.
And by 1967, college applica
tions are expected to double.
It’s time to put a stop to this
nonsense. Won’t you help?
Help the college of your choice
wow. The returns will be
greater than you think.

the college crisis means to you, write

"SHE WAS ONLY
THE DEAN OF MEN’S
DAUGHTER”
(But oil wfcat a recenl she Bad*)
The only trouble is, it’s been
banned. From the radio at least.
In fact, the whole dam Capitol
album, “Campus Confidential"
by the Four Preps, has been
banned. “She Was Only the
Dean of Men's Daughter" and
the other numbers, like “Prin
cess Poo-poo-ly Has Plenty
Papaya” are just a little too., •
well, colorful for air play.
This album was recorded dur
ing a Four Preps Concert at
UCLA. Their performance was
wildly appreciated by the stu
dents, and we strongly suspect it
will be wildly appreciated by
everyone who hears it on this
new Capitol release. (With the
sole exception of radio station
owners who want to keep their
stations on the air.)
So slip into your nearest rec
ord store for “Campus Confi
dential" on Capitol. (In plain
brown wrapper, of course.)
(P. S. Look for the Four Preps in
concert on your campus.)
