Socialists...
(Continued Irani payc 1)
"There are no Soviet soldiers
in Viet Nam; there are no Chin
ese soldiers in Viet Nam; the only
foreign soldiers in Viet Nam are
United States soldiers," concluded
the policy statement.
Owen D. Edwards, University
history professor and faculty ad
visor to the socialist group, spoke
briefly to the club.
Assuring the group that they
have a great deal of support from
within the University community,
Edwards said that many faculty
members are enthusiastic about
the group’s formation.
Edwards finished by saying that
this club's activities would serve
a purpose of “arousing students
from their torpor and apathy”
concerning many world and na
tional problems.
In a statement of the purpose
of the socialist club, Susan llend
ershott, club secretary, said that
Too often, individual students
experience a sense of futility and
alienation in relation to events,
political and otherwise, in the
"world outside."
“We feel that students can and
should Ik* encouraged to make
significant contributions to their
political environment. Dialectic
and demenstrational forms of ac
tion serve as a beginning in the
attempt to tear down this wall of
isolation," she concluded
A general meeting of Students
for Socialist Action will be held
at 7 p m. on January 19. so that
a joint statement of policy can
be drafted with other University
groups, with regard to the plan
ned demonstrations.

Unique No Classes' Studies
Encourage Individual Efforts
(CPS-CUP)- The possibility of
completing an entire undergrad
uate career from registration to
bachelor’s degree without ever
attending classes will be offered
75 U. S. college freshmen next
September.
The experiment—underwritten
by a $325,000 grant from the Ford
f oundation—will be launched at
three liberal arts colleges: Alle
ghany, (Pa.), Colorado College,
and Lake Forest (111 ).
A national selection committee
will pick 24 students from the
freshman class at each college for
the program. All will be talented
students with accelerated high
school preparation.
T h e chosen undergraduates
will then pursue their first de
grees through faculty-guided in
dependent study, free of usually
required courses, class attend
ance, grades and credits.
Each student will have, how
ever, a faculty advisor in the role
of preceptor, critic, and guide.
Each will also have special ac
cess to visiting scholars, lecturers,
and artists.
The unique departure is in
tended to allow academic free
dom of movement for able under
graduates comparable to that per
mitted talented students in U.S.
secondary schools, a foundation
vice-president, Clarence H. Pause,
explained.
“Secondary school programs
