State Board to Consider Policy on Co-op Housing PORTLAND (Special) — The State Board of Higher Education will probably adopt a policy on co-operative housing that will have the institution select the students who live in such hous ing. The board will also consider liberalizing of its policies on mar ried students at its next meet ing, December 12 and 13. A special committee of the board adopted a nine-page pol icy statement on student housing Friday. Hie policies will not be final until the full board votes on them in December. The policy on co-operative hous-1 ing would: • Have the institutions select ■ the students. • Require the rental contracts | to be between the institution and j the student, not with any group; or organizations. • Require the units to pay for 1 their own construction and oper ating costs through the fees paid by students to live there. The committee also voted 3-1 to eliminate another policy rec- j ommendation which would have i withheld any further co-operative I housing (except the project plan ned at the University, until after, the operation of the present i housing is evaluated. Board President Charles Hol loway pointed out that any addi tional housing will have to come to the board anyway. The committee also recom mended to the full board the abo lition of several policies on mar ried student housing. The two policies which will be abolished if the board follows the committee’s recommenda tions: • A requirement that the board review an occupancy pol icy for all new married student housing. • A general policy that insti tutions build a single student housing first: then other types of auxiliary projects, such as stu Final Emerald Schedule Set Only two issues of the Em erald will be published this week, today and Tuesday, due to the Thanksgiving holiday.

(Continued from page 1) Franklin—the School of Architec ture addition—was postponed. The proposed building has aroused a good deal of controver sy between the department of ar chitecture and the department of fine arts within the school. Flemming has taken over the handling of the matter, at least for the time being. Architecture School Dean Walter Creese opposed putting the question off. Saturday the Planning Commit tee toured the site first, then re turned to the Johnson Hall con ference room for discussion. Dean of Administration Wil liam C. Jones pointed out that a decision to keep teaching facil ities on the present campus will force high rise construction on the campus. William Simpson, professor of chemistry, suggested that present athletic fields might be moved across Franklin, freeing that space for academic uses. J. O. Lindstrom, director of fis cal affairs and the committee chairman, said construction on the pioneer cemetery area would increase the educational plant greatly, but Jones pointed out that no legislative action on that is planned for the 1967 Legisla ture. In other committee business: • The committee recommend ed to Flemming that the parking lot at 15th Avenue and Moss Street, near Bean Hall, be open ed up to dormitory residents. • The committee appointed Lutes and Amundson, Springfield architects, to study the develop ment of property owned by the Eugene Sand and Gravel Com pany. | The University is now negoti i ating for purchase of the land, I which is on the south bank of ' the Willamette River. There is 8200,000 in the State System of Higher Education’s capital con struction budget for 1967-69 for development of the area for park ing. • In response to a recommen dation made Thursday by the ASUO Senate, Lindstrom said the new computer center, now under construction north of Common wealth Hall will be more than one level. It is only in its first stage. The Senate “condemned” the site. • Lindstrom ruled a letter by Fred Mohr, assistant to the dean of Graduate School,out of order because it wasn’t on the agenda. The letter was in response to an editorial in Friday’s Emerald about the architecture building question.

Holloway called both policies “repugnant.” He added. "Wc have gone be yond the preview of the board in dictating a day-to-day policy on the use of married student hous ing.” University President Arthur S. Flemming pointed out that any time the University decides to build married student housing, such proposals will have to come to the board. "We must be flexible to work toward meeting our needs,” he said. The motion passed 3-1. On both 3-1 votes the lone dis senter was Mrs. Elizabeth John son, board member from Red mond. HC Talk Centers On Blake College The topic of discussion at the Honors College Discussion at 8 p.m. today will be Blake College, which founder-director Raymond Peat decided to move to Eugene this fall after live years in Mex ico. Blake has been from its con ception an experimental or “free” institution offering a general rather than a specialized, type of education. Designed to be small, there are presently five teachers and four students. There arc no formal subjects and no grades or hours. Diplomas are granted by examination. Directions, goals and philoso phies vary greatly within the college. The structure is oriented more toward a “Community of Scholars” than toward a tcach er-administration-student trichot omy. The viewpoint of the col lege is that all members of the community are teacher-students. NOW AT HULING BUICK STUDENT DISCOUNTS We want your busineti and we are willing to pay for itl DICKGANZ Mgr.
