Discrimination... (Cnntimird from Padf 1) them to the home of a white student member of CORE, and asked this student to go put a deposit on the apartment. Before the white student left, his wife called to check on the place and was told that it was vacant. Now the group was sure that the apartment was vacant. This was beginning to look like a definite case of discrimination. While the CORE member was renting the apartment, Reynolds, Senga, and the African student went to the State Department of Labor office in Eugene where the student called the Portland branch of the Civil Rights Division which handles cases of dis crimination in Oregon. The CRD office promised to send someone to Eugene immediately. It was now 12 noon on Thursday. At this point CORE was handling the whole matter. After check ing with the CORE member on the receipt. Reynolds decided to go back to the apartment to give the manager a chance to change his mind. He also checked with legal authorities on the validity of the receipt. Reynolds took Clyde DeBerry, former head of CORE, Senga. and the African student. The latter two remained in the car while Reynolds and DeBerry went in to confer with the manager. Shortly. DeBerry came back to the car saying they could come in and pay the rent; the apartment was theirs. As they came in. the manager was talking to the owner who had stopped at the apartment building by coincidence. When DeBerry explained what had happened and that they were checking on discrimination, the owner said he had rented the place the night before to a friend who would be moving in in about live days. DeBerry argued that it had been reported vacant when Senga had called. They did not mention the white CORE worker who had rented the apartment about an hour earlier The owner got mad and ordered them off his property. When they refused to go. he called the police. At the arrival of the police. DeBerry explained the whole situa tion again and sent Senga after the receipt. W'hen he returned with the CORE member and the receipt, he was told that the owner had relented and the apartment could be rented by the African student. They paid the rent, got the key, and left. It was now about 5 p m. Thursday evening. Reynolds, Senga. and the African student then went to the Labor Bureau office to meet the CRD man from Portland He made out conciliation forms for the owner and manager to sign stating they would stop practicing discrimination. The African student and his roommate moved into the apartment Thursday evening. Senga said he "was impressed with the efficiency in the way things were handled." He emphasized: "Sure. wre do have these incidents but if people follow the proper channels, things can be done about them." Student Faculty Conflict... (Continued from page 1) Advisory Council suggested that the University work out a faculty evaluation program of student evaluation of facuity which would be used by President Flemming in his decisions on faculty tenure and promotion. Since then a faculty-student committee has set up such a pro gram that will go into operation this spring. It uses a form com pletely devised by students. But perhaps the greatest op portunity for students and fac ulty to work together is offered by the Student-Faculty Council. This group was created by the faculty last term. It consists of six faculty members and six stu dents. Its charge from tne faculty is to investigate any area that mutually interests students and faculty.

Lenore Liebreich 307 Tiffany Bldg. 345-6844 £ So far it has discussed man> of the student requests on cur —'"’’lum and has reacted favor ably. ivS discussions seem to be aimed at some of the basic prob lems of higher education. So far student leaders such as Gold schmidt have praised its work highly. They seem to agree that it presents an excellent opportu nity for faculty members and students to work together. The question of how much stu dents will be involved in running the University has not yet been resolved. Whether the faculty will agree to an evaluation of courses by students, whether faculty meet ings will be open to all the stu dents instead of just two, whether the faculty will be receptive to the curriculum changes proposed by Goldschmidt and the ASUO— all these questions are still to be answered.
