Students Gripe New Constitution Due SOC Faculty ASHLAND (AP)—A new faculty constitution will be drawn up at Southern Oregon College. The Faculty Council, which resigned last week, met Monday with Elmo Stevenson, school president, to discuss the matter. It was decided that the faculty would select a group to draft a faculty constitution. For the time being, the college will operate without one. . . The council had resigned last week, the 13 members complaining that their suggestions were not being followed. No date has been set for the new faculty guidelines, but Stevenson said he hopes they will be drawn up in time for the next school year. He said he thought the present guidelines were out of date. Stevenson added that the council resignation indicated that the school was “passing through one of those trying periods that occurs in the life of a fast-growing institution.” “We have all been so busy handling immediate problems that we have lost touch with each other,” he said. Meanwhile a student group met to coordinate gripes. A campus wide meeting will be held at a date not yet set, but already students have pointed to two complaints: The library is inadequate and needs emergency measures even though a new one is planned; and faculty salaries are too low. Last week the students got into the disagreement the faculty had with the administration by hanging an effigy of Stevenson. When they tried to hang a second, another student group set upon the first and a general fight followed. Poetess to Read Her Own Works Poet Mona Van Duyn, editor of the literary quarterly “Per spective,” will Hive a public reading of her poems today. The poetry reading is set for 4 p.m. in the Student Union. It is sponsored by the University’s de partment of English, the North west Review, and the Division of Continuing Education. Miss Van Duyn is a faculty member of Washington Univer sity in St. Louis. A number of her poems have been published in “Poetry” magazine and other literary publications. Poems by Miss Van Duyn have been assembled in two volumes, “Valentines to the Wide World,” published in 1959, and “A Time of Bees,” published in 1964. A New York Times reviewer concluded that the poet’s work was “full of verbal and metaphys ical wit, a wiry distortion of or dinary speech.” Miss Van Duyn’s appearance in Eugene is part of a Northwest Poetry Circuit program of the Academy of American Poets.
