■ ■ ■ Snoball (Coniimml front pane 1) the Emerald Hint his suggestions to finance the dunce in u different manner wore rejected "because there wasn’t enough time to change anything.” The Snoball is scheduled for Jan. 20. Roger Gould, freshman class president, told the Emerald that it was almost impossible to fi nance the Snoball another way this year because of time limita tions. He also said that if the dance was financed through tick et sales, students would have to be charged more per ticket than the 50 cent per person charge that has been suggested. Gould also noted that it would be possible to "deficit spend" to support the dance, but that would mean that the freshman class would be about “$1,000 in the hole" after the dance, he said This deficit would have to be made up by the class by other class functions during their four year tenure at the University. He said that the class may have to resort to deficit spending, if things don't clear up ” Gould told the Emerald Wed nesday that members of Decou Hall would "probably not be al lowed to attend the Snoball” if they don’t agree to pay the tax A L. "Si" Kllingson. director of tin- Student t nion, expressed the same sentiments Tuesday eve ning. Some i.uesis, wners ray Kingslien told the Emerald that he thought that some of the residents of his dormitory would want to attend the dance. He said he hoped they would he al lowed to pay 50 cents per per son for the dance. Artually, only 71 per cent of the freshman class lives in the dormitories; the others live off campus or in cooperatives Only the freshman dormitory residents will be assessed for the dance; the others are invited to the Sno ball as guests of the dormitory residents. It appears definite that resi dents of individual dorm units who have voted not to pay the 50-cent tax as a unit will not have to pay it. However, there are some questions about trying to exclude certain members of the freshman class from attend ing the all class dance. The questions are: How do you check to see who attends'’ Also, can anyone legally exclude these students from attending? Espe cially if they are willing to pay their 50 cents out of their own pockets? Who can make much a decision? Study Offered In Scandinavia The Scandinavian Seminar study program in Denmark, Fin land, Norway, and Sweden is now accepting applications for the academic year 1006 67. The student stays with a Scan dinavian family at the outset, speaking the language daily, and sharing its activities in the com munity. For the major part of the year he lives and studies at a folk ehojskole- a residential school for young adults. Except during the general seminal- and lan guage courses, he is entirely sep arated from his fellow Ameri can students. At the folkehjskole particular attention is given to the value of the Scandinavian cultural heri tage in today’s changing world. After the student has acquired a working knowledge of the lan guage, he is able to devote con siderable time to independent study and research in the field of his major interest, which cul minates in the presentation of a project paper.

En titled "Milton as a Comparatist,” the paper was originally delivered at a meeting of the Philological Association of the Pacific Coast at Santa Barbara in 1961. Faculty Senators Bar PSC Paper PORTLAND (Special)—Facul ty senators unanimously rejected a request from the Portland State College student newspaper, the Vanguard, to cover their Monday meeting. In a memo to the senate, the Vanguard asked for an exception to a long-standing rule that the press not be allowed in faculty senate meetings. Discussion of the State Legis lature’s Mosscr plan to reward and encourage outstanding un dergraduate teachers was on the meeting's agenda The senate took no action on the question, hut may consider it again in Febru ary. The Vangaurd memo said, in part: . . we think it is important that the faculty senate’s views be made known in the Vanguard We believe that Portland State’s action on the Mosser plan is of prime significance both to the college community and to the public. The best assurance of ac curate coverage is that the report er know the background of the story.” Few Comments Assistants to PSC President Branford P. Millar told the Van guard afterward that when the request was read to the senate by the president, there were “very few” comments, and the request was unanimously rejected by voice vote. Two points were made by fac ulty members during the brief discussion. • If the Vanguard is allowed into faculty senate meetings, so must be the public press. • The Vanguard has available to it the minutes of the meet ings recorded by the senate sec retary. (Vanguard representatives said those minutes are fairly com plete but that they do not attri bute statements to individual fac ulty members). In a similar case, the Emerald and the Eugene Register-Guard were denied admittance to Uni versity faculty discussion of the Mosser plan last term. The Vanguard plans to make another request to Millar that it be allowed to attend all fac ulty meetings. Monday’s request involved only that one meeting. The Vanguard said Millar was curious as to the seriousness of their intentions of covering the meeting, since the Vanguard has not indicated much interest be fore, Portland State has already ap proved a plan for distribution of the $1,000 Mosser awards but the college may re-evaluate it. The State Emergency Board’s decision to cut the Mosser award money to meet the higher education en rollments crisis cut PSC’s awards to 30. Improves Your Study Habits!
