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.

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.
