Upward Bound:
Good or Bad? . ..

feels that tt iti not even yet di
reeled toward the right group.
"We have to stop talking to
middle clash kids. We have to
start talking to lower class people
about lower class kids," DeBerry
emphasized
Hperlal College
A special college within the
University, which would consist
of only Upward Bound students, i
many of them taking special in
troductory courses to prepare
them for regular college level
courses, was one suggestion he
gave
"The Equal Educational Oppor
tunity College," as DeBerry called
it, would even give degrees it
would be sort of like the Honors
College, but would deal with stu
dents who are poorly prepared for
college, instead of those who are
very well prepared for it
DeBerry would have the up
ward Bound students live togeth
er. in effect segregated from nth
ei students He feels their being
grouped together would give
them sufficient confidence to make
college much easier for them.
Sometime during their sopho
more year, the Upward Bound stu
dents could be phased into other
living groups
Directly disagreeing with De
Berry's viewpoint is John How
aid, assistant professor of sociol
ogy and a member of the pro
gram’s faculty advisory council.
“Negative Honors College”
Howard feels that the “nega
tive Honor* College," such as the
one suggested by DeBerry, would
give rise to a stigma about its stu
dents' being academically "in
ferior."
"The segregation (such as De
Berry would have the Upward
Bound students in until their
sophomore year) process itself
is not what evoke* a negative re
action. but the reason for the
segregation," the sociologist ex
plained

is the National Council. So are

Ftiggs offer7 Basically, the same
kind of negative philosophy
which we have heard, southern
fried, in a different context.
"Northern agitators," that one
usually goes, "come to the South
on an abmird mission, one that
is contrary to the nature of how
the American South operates."
Hemember7
I for one give both Miss Ash
ley and the "northern agitators”
a good chance of doing some
thing that will ultimately change
their respective fields for the
better. Both causes arc worth
the effort.

Howard suggested that the
oinht week summer session held
for Upward Hound be made more
like an actual college’s atmos
pn«*re, ho that the? increased com
petition would not discourage the
students.
Its a tremendous mark of
success that so many of them are
still here," he commented, since
a third to a half of all freshmen
diop or dunk out every year, any
way.
Assistant geology professor 0.
I' Benson, also a member of the
Appointments
(Continued from pane ])
JcHsio L. Puckett, associate pro
fessor of physical education and
a member of the Committee,
asked that the student body pres- j
ident and whoever else is involv
ed in the selection of the court J
members "work together and have
co operation in the work of our
committee rather the student
group and not the faculty.”
Goldschmidt said he didn't en- !
vision the taking of this duty by ;
his office as a “power situation.”
I envision it as trying to make
the system work,” he said
Me said student body presi
dents in the past haven't taken
much of an interest in the af
fairs of the court systems. "Most
of them have never sat in on a
session," he said. "But I think
the reason is that the thing is so
far away from them.”
Important Part
"This is one of the most im
portant parts of student life, and
the reason they aren't showing
more interest is because the re
sponsibility has been lifted off
their shoulders, Goldschmidt said.
Another point discussed for the
Friday meeting was a rule in
II 1)5, which allows for the as
sociate dean of students to not
turn over a case to the student
courts on the ground of "psy
chological abnormality, mental
illness, or other unusual circum
stances.”
Bob Carl objected to the fact
the associate dean of students
had the authority to decide
whether or not the student is
"normal ” He suggested this
should be done by the counseling
service or someone who is trained
in this held.
These points will be discussed
at the Friday meeting and pos
sibly at a retreat Committee
meeting, tentatively scheduled for
Feb. 5.
Correction
The time of the lecture by
Morris Yarowsk.v was incorrect
as printed in Wednesday’s Emer

is the third of a series sponsor
ed by the University School of
Architecture and Allied Arts.

Senate Stand
(Continued from t'tifjf 6)
problem that should and does concern every student. And that,
too, is worthwhile!
Recognizing that students do indeed care very much about Viet
Nam and that they have a right and responsibility to see their
views expressed, does not mean that the Senate will be less effec
tive in dealing with "local,’’ campus problems.
In fact, by broadening the range of issues and by involving and
interesting more students, the Senate and students of this Vni
\ersity can have a larger voice in decisions now being made by
the faculty and administration.
In other words, to have an impact on issues like the football
stadium, closing hours, mandatory physical education, lighted
tennis courts, the Mosser plan, and improved curriculum, the
campus political system gets students interested in its activities.
The best way to do that is to consider issues like Viet Nam.

faculty advisory council, has sev
eral Upward Hound students in
his geology classes and knows
others, as well.
Benson feels very strongly that
most of the students in the pro
gram had little or no idea about
the work that would be involved
in attending college when they
came to the University.
Communication Hinders
Even their communication with
other people in the University.
has hindered their educational
process; "learning the language
of college,” said Benson, is a big
project for a person who has ■
never come into contact with an j
academic environment before.
“Some of the kids in this pro
gram are unimpressive . . . while
others are fjuite impressive,” he
explained, "and somewhere in it
there are kids who are college
material and can be successful.” I
Benson also feels that the sum
mer session should be conducted ;
more rigorously, to get the stu
dents used to the idea of hard
work.
The geologist considers the pro
gram to be “a potentially useful
thing,” but one on which a lot |
of work is needed.
Classroom Problems
"It’s really a problem in the
classroom, adapting to the com
munications styles of the pro
fessors,” replied Upward Bound
counselor Chuck DeMars when
asked about the problems en
countered by the students in the
program.
A senior in psychology, DeMars
is quite enthusiastic about the
Upward Bound program and it?;
students; he has been assigned to
counsel nine of them and spends
much of his time solving stu
dents’ problems.
“Some of these boys came from
backgrounds where college was
out of the question,” he explained, j
Either because of their finanical
status or their lack of academic
background, the program’s stu
dents all started out at a terrific
disadvantage.
"They have an amazing ability
to catch up,” the counselor affim
ed. They can group to beat the
University system.”
' They tutor each other and wc
do things socially as a group,” he
continued.
DeMars also said that, although
"some professors have been very
helpful in giving additional help, ’
others have not. He would like
to see more faculty members help.
“If the University would oper
ate an Upward Bound program on
a large scale, there’d be some
outstanding things happening,”
he concluded.
