SU Board Debates Lawn Tent

said it cannot feel obligated to
grant all requests for structures
but it must service the student
body; yet, it cannot permit any
structure on the lawn which could
function just as well in some oth
er campus location.
The m»un question involved was
where to draw the line in per
mitting organizations to erect
structures on the lawn of the SU.
Whether the answer was to ex
clude every one, include every
one, or to try to find a stopping
point somewhere in between with
out being unfair or inconsistent
was the subject of the lengthy
debate.
Flying up from San Francisco
for the sole purpose of arguing
in behalf of the Peace Corps were
spokesmen Therm Kaldahl and
Karen Lindberg. Also arguing for
the tent was Tom Cox. director of
international education, through
which the Peace Corps becomes a
campus organization.
In his presentation Kaldahl
stated his feeling that the tent
and its location last year was re
sponsible for the success the
Peace Corps had in its member
ship drive at the University.
Last year the University topped
every school in the nation in its
number of Peace Corps applicants,
and as a result, received a com
mendation from then Peace Corps
director, Sargent Shriver. About
six per cent of the student body,
or 280 students, applied and took
the qualifying test.
This figure is three times as
high, said Kaldahl, as recruitment
figures at the University were

the year before when there was,
no tent.
With these two facts in mind,
the University and a tent on the
SU lawn are "very important" to
the Peace Corps. Kaldahl said;
important enough to "spare no ex
penses” in hiring gardeners to re
turn the lawn to normal after the
tent has been taken down.
Sticking to one point, that of
the Board’s consistency, ASUO
Vice-President Lee Bollinger felt
that the Board should refuse per
mission to all such requests in
maintaining consistency.
He challenged the Board's pow
er to set up a policy permitting
some and refusing other groups
because such a policy would make
value judgments on the groups,
necessarily condemning some.
This would be in essence contra

SU Director Jack Cross argued
that the tent could be just as ef
fective somewhere else on cam
pus. He suggested somewhere
along 13th Avenue, as there Is
more student traffic there than
along the Hello Walk. Cross also
suggested that the Peace Corps
could have Room 101 in the SU
if they wanted, and not have a
tent at all.
Cox argued that the tent was
“60 to 70 per cent of the whole
program.”
Directorate Chairman Jim
Graves argued that students
were usually going somewhere
and had less time to stop on
13th, but would have time to
stop on their way to and from
the SU.
After much more discussion,
and after one motion and amend
ment were rescinded, the Hoard
voted in a seven-five-two vote to
permit the Peace Corps to pitch
a tent on the SU lawn during
Peace Corps Week for recruiting
of applicants.
