Survey Shows
Teachers Average
48-Hour Work Week
A survey conducted at the Uni
versity has shown that teachers
have a typical work week of
more than 48 hours a week.
The median work week was
found to range from 43 9 hours
for primary teachers to 51 1
hours for high school teachers.
Primary teachers included those
teaching kindergarten through
the third grade, while high
school teachers included those
teaching grades nine through
twelve
Intermediate teachers, those
teaching grades four through six,
were found to have a median
work week of 47 8 hours, and
junior high school teachers of
grades seven through nine were
found to have a median work
week of 47 1 hours.
The survey was conducted by
Hubert R Rath, a graduate assist- j
ant at the School of (education
and assistant executive secretary!
of the Oregon School Study Coun
cil The study, based on returned
questionnaires from 4B7 Oregon
teachers in HO different school
districts, appears in the March
issue of the Council’s Bulletin
The survey showed that the
oldest and the youngest age
groups of teachers had the high
esl median total work weeks
Teachers under 25 years old had
a work week of 51 7 hours, while
those who were 51 years or older
had a work week of 51.1 hours
Most of the teachers reported;
a duty-free noon period in some
pattern, but high school teachers
tended to have such a period 'j
with greater regularity than
other teachers.
Hours devoted to instruction
increased as the grade level in
creased At the primary level
teachers reported devoting 23
hours per week to instruction,
while high school teachers re
ported 26 1 hours.
Primary teachers reported
more time devoted to planning;
than the other teaching levels,,
while intermediate teachers re-1
ported the least amount of plan
ning time. j
Student Unrest
Dialogue Topic
The topic of today's YMCA dia
logue is 'The Restless Student,”
an investigation of some of the
evidences of unrest and rebellion
coming to light among student
groups.
Leading the discussion will be
Si Ellingson, director of the Stu
dent Union, and Bob Dyer, assis
tant Dean of Students, both of
whom are responsible for ad
ministering the Minor Court
System.
They will discuss the Berkeley
situation and other situations in
which students are attempting
to express frustrations felt toward
mass culture and impersonal so
ciety.
Also, evidences of unrest at
Oregon, and a discussion of what
students rebel against will be
included. Other points to be
stressed arc whether such a thing
as a “student movement exists”
and whether the struggle for the
right to use "four letter words”
is a legitimate outcropping of
student revolution, or is sim
ply a substitute for the lack of
anything worthwhile against
which students can fight.
One of the greatest variable*
between grade levels was in the
category of ‘‘other school work
time,” which included such items
as school meetings, administra
tive and clerical responsibilities,
assemblies, coaching, pupil or
ganization sponsorship, other
planning, and correcting papers.
High school teachers reported
19 2 hours per week devoted to
such activities, compared to 9 9
hours for primary teachers, 11.1
hours for intermediate teachers,
and 11.1 hours for junior high
school teachers.
Hath concluded: “The greatest
explanation for the difference in
the total work week is found in
the 'other school work time.’ ”

David Aberle, who is chairman
of the committee, has released a
statement in response to Presi

Boyte to Discuss
Rights' Future
Harry G. Boyte, special assis
tant to Martin Luther King, Jr.,
will speak on the future of the
civil rights movement in the
light of the recent events in
Alabama
There will be a press confer
ence for Boyte at 4 p.m. in the
Student Union Dad’s Room.
The University chapter of the
Congress on Racial Equality is
sponsoring the speech.
Boyte resigned an executive
position with the American Red
Cross after 18 years of serv
ice to work for the civil rights
movement.
The speech is to be held in
the SU Ballroom at 8 p m. and is
open to the public.
“while the United States con
tinues to support an unstable
and unpopular puppet regime.”
Demands Popular Vote
Demanding that the U.S. allow
a popular vote in the troubled
area, Aberle says: “The evidence
seems increasingly clear that
Americans have preferred to sup
port war rather than a plebis
cite.” Aberle claims that the war
is brutal, "reminiscent of Nazi
concentration camps,” and that
the U.S. ought to allow the vari
ous pressure groups in Viet Nam
to have representation in the
government.
Aberle agrees with Johnson
that South Viet Nam should be
“able to shape its own relation
ships to all others—free from
outside interference—tied to no
alliance—a military base for no
other country.”
