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.
For further information, write
to Scandinavian Seminar, 140 W.
57th St., New York, N.Y. 10019.
bvendsen Publishes
A paper by Hester Svendson,
head of the English department,
will appear in the next issue of
the American Comparative Liter
ature Association Newsletter. 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.
