Berliner Fired, Rehired, After Student Protest* Kill tor's Note: This In the sro oikI In a three part scries eon riming student protests at the I ree University of llerlln. By I.INN THOMPSON Collegiate Press Service For taking pail In the student protest activities at the Free Uni \ersity of Merlin last spring and summer, one assistant in the po litical science faculty come close to losing his position and thus his chance to attain teaching status. (An assistant is usually a student doing post doctoral work in order to gain teaching and later professional status). Fkkehart Krlppendorf wrote an article in a liberal Wist Merlin newspaper dealing with events that had caused the outbreak of student demonstrations at the Free University He erroneously reported that the philosopher Karl Jaspers had not been permitted to speak at the university because his polit ical views on German unity did not conform to the rector's (Ger man equivalent of university president.) Damage Done A few days later Krippendorf corrected himself in the same newspaper, but the damage was already done The rector consider ed Krippendorfa remarks slander and refused to renew his contract which expired in September. Moth student leaders and pro lessors opposed the rector's de cision However, the rector de clared that a question of person nel had nothing to do with .stu dents and stood firm. As a result there were addi tional protest meetings for Kripp endorf and petitions were circu lated in his behalf, primarily in the political science institute. Making Hash Demands As is often the case even at American universities, the stu dents became so wrapped up in their demonstrations that they were soon making rather rash demands: for example, that the university's highest administra five body be composed equally of Commies... <( onlmurt! from f'cii/e ft) public Rood The Saigon gov ernment ha* refused to pass laws for the accommodation of the large districts of the coun try outside of Saigon They have erected a multitude of new offi ces and sent swarms of officer* to harass the people and eat out their sulMtanec. They have tried to make the military inde pendent of and superior to the civil power." "Treason, treason, treason. You're little lietter than a turn coat, a Benedict Arnold." The diplomat pulls out a hand kerchief from his pocket and wipes his forehead.' He tries to plead. "Boy, don't you see they’ve pounded the Commiecrnp into your brain until you don't know any better. They've told you all of this guff and you've accepted it, boy. They got you hooked Use your reason, boy. You're an American. Think for yourself. Don't accept all that bull Be a man, hoy." “I'm trying to, sir, but what about all of those people dying, American and Vietna mese? What about the military dictatorship in Saigon? W h a t about the fact that the former premier was killed in an Ameri can made staff car, by an Amer ican made gun by an officer in an American-made uniform?” "You poor boy. Brainwashed, beyond all hope," the diplomat laments. "Yes, sir, brainwashed,” his as sistant agrees. "Yes, sir,” his assistant agrees. Collegiate Press Service professors, assistants and stu dcnlH. Thug, the rector found it '•asy to stand by his stubborn position finally a compromise solution was found, by which Krippendorf could retain his position, hut not as an employee of the university H was arranged for him to re ceive a scholarship. Yet even this compromise would not have been reached, had not a number of professors sided with Krippendorf and protested the actions of the rector and the faculty senate. I here was much disunity amoni! the faculty during these disturbances at the Free Univer sity. Professors called one an other liars, accused each other in public letters of acting un democratically and of presenting unscientific theses. Two prominent professors in the political science department, who had supported the founding YMCA Signing PE Volunteers Volunteer teachers are needed to assist in physical education and swimming classes for mentally retarded and physically handi capped children.
