Newspaper Page Text• • • Muscatine Report (Continued from Ml/* l'1) • Opportunity for student* to toko courses In sequence over two or three terms, with one tirade given at completion. There are many more recommendations in this fascinating report, tmt the suggestions listed should give an idea of its scope and daring. Here is a blueprint for a campus which would place more empha sis on the primary university function of leaching, and less emphasis on the peripheral, but distracting, busywork of grades, required sequences, highly technical grade average requirements, and restrictions on independent study. It would release students, to some extent, from the obligation of negotiating a highly complex maze of regulations, requirements and grades, and place them on their own. LESS CONTACT One of the most discouraging tendencies in the multiversities recently has been a tendency to remove the student from contact with his teachers and the actual learning process. Classroom tele vision and enormous lecture groups have made necessary an ever more complex system of grading, because teachers rarely have personal contact with the undergraduates they instruct. The beauty of the Berkeley proposals is that they would require no more money, no more room, and no more faculty members than the present unsatisfactory arrangement. As this writer has pointed out often in the past, educational reform does not involve great sums of money and radical changes in the physical campus. One elementary proposal to simplify the freshman year, for example, simply involves requiring half as many courses each semester— lor twice as many hours. BUREAUCRATIC MINDS Whether the vision of the Berkeley report, coupled with its simplicity, will prove too much for the bureaucratic minds so often in ultimate control of higher education remains to be seen. Wo have had so many incredibly complex surveys, studies, sta tastical evaluations and other analretentivc attempts to cope with an essentially simple problem in the past few years that it is no longer possible on many campuses for educational reform to win its way through sheer common sense. But thn pre 19B4 experts were wrong at Berkeley, and there is evidence to indicate they have been wrong in their empire-building all over the country. Now comes a report to print the way to decentralization of the educational process, beginning with a renewed interest in the individual teacher and student. The future of higher education in the United States literally does depend on whether the educational establishment has the energy and courage to guide the multiversities into these exciting new channels. If this is not the case, then perhaps the students would tie best advised to take their education into their own hands and disregard altogether the game playing of their mentors. Collegiate Press Service Letters to the Editor —, (ContintwH from pane 6) of view on an issue. This is all we ask for. The Emerald has attempted to incorporate this into its cru sade for open faculty meetings. But, while this is a worthy ob jective, it's just not in the bill People have either supported or condemned this proposal be lieving that students are asking for "representation” in the fac ulty meetings This belief is entirely unfounded, because •representation” includes full voting and speaking privileges, and these are also not included in the Senate resolution. So let's look at the resolution as it really is, as 1 have outlined it in my second paragraph. Only if this is done can it be fairly considered. It is evident that the students are asking for very little. If this "moderate pro posal” is rejected, the 11,(XK) students who are directly af fected by faculty decisions con cerning education are going to want to know the reason why. dreg Foote Senator-at-large Freshman. Pre-Law * * * Billing System Emerald Kditor: At the end of last term, bills were sent to students with fees to pay, such as infirmary or li brary charges. To many students the bill was a shock. Many did not know that their expenses were so high. I received a bill which was quite a bit more than I had ex pected to get. It took me all aft ernoon to find out what the bill was for. The office at Emerald Hall could only tell me that it was for a lab and a prescription. Not recalling having a lab done at the infirmary, I was sent to the infirmary. Here I talked to three nurses and the pharma cist, and finally to the doctor who had given me the lab. 1 found that the lab was a throat culture that 1 did not even know I received, let alone know the results. Now t w o months after the culture had been taken the doctor informed me that the results were nega tive. 1 then went back to Emerald llall and paid the bill which had to be paid before I could register for spring terra. 1 would like to ask—why isn't there a better billing system for the University? At least a temporary hill or a listing of charges can be made at the pharmacist's window at the in firmary. There have been several in stances where people have not been charged anything for med icine, other treatment, or other University charges because the billing system has been slip shod. On the other hand, I know of one person who was billed for a traffic ticket when she did not drive a car or own a license. It took her time and effort to straighten out the mis take. Why should a student have to spend time tracing the rea son for a bill he receives? The University is growing and archaic systems have to be re vised to meet the growth. A good place to begin is in Em erald Hall wth the billing sys term. Joyce Jones Freshman, Journalism OZ Elects Linda Wilkes was recently elected president of Delta Zeta.
