    On Organizations
Rules Tightened
Violations by two student
groups, trust fund requirements
and separation of constitution
and policies were the main
items of business in the Student
Administrative Board (SAB)
Tuesday.
Students for a Democratic So
ciety (SDS) were warned by the
SAB that future violations of
EMU rules “would not be tol
erated.” The representative
from SDS pleaded ignorance to
the four violations charged
against them.
The Committee Against Geno
cide of Biafrans were charged
with two of the same violations.
The Biafra committee’s rep
resentative said she purposely
violated the regulations because
she did not see any reason for
such regulations.
The SAB withdraw all sched
uling privileges of the commit
tee for one week, but suspended
the sanction and placed the
committee on probation for 30
days. If the committee violates
any SAB policy during the pro
bation period, the one-week loss
of scheduling privileges will be
invoked.
The violations of SDS were
taking over a table reserved by
another group, using equipment
(i.e. a table) other than pro
vided by the EMU, having a
table on the terrace during
ASUO elections, and putting up
signs on places, where signs are
not allowed, such as the window
Lecture to Feature
Vietnam War Tape
“What’s Next in Vietnam,”
will be the topic of the Brows
ing Room Lecture tonight at
7:30 in the Browsing Room of
the EMU.
Hugh Wood, professor of Ed
ucation, will be the guest speak
er. Wood recently returned
from Vietnam where he spent
several months observing the
war.
lie will be introduced by lec
ture discussion leader Guy
Schellenbarger, also a professor
of education.
Following the lecture, Wood
will play a tape of a battle of
the January Tet Offensive in
Saigon. The tape was made from
the roof of a hotel where Wood
and several other visitors were
staying.

The Biafra committee also
used non-EMU tables and had
a table up during ASUO elec
tions.
The SAB decided that in
future violations, a member of
the board would warn groups
on the terrace of the violation.
If the violation occurred again,
a written complaint would be
filed and the group would be
required to appear before the
SAB.
The SAB has such sanction
powers as withdrawal of sched
uling privileges, withdrawal of
fund-raising privileges, with
drawal of the use of the Uni
versity name, property and fa
cilities, as well as withdrawal of
any group’s recognition.
On the trust fund accounts
that the board last week de
cided to require of every group,
the SAB decided to grant
waivers to all sororities, fra
ternities and groups who have
trust funds with University de
partments. It was decided on
the exemption because these
groups already have trust funds
which are recognized by the Uni
versity and are open to inspec
tion from any person through
the business office.
In voting to separate the con
stitution from the polices, SAB
members differentiated between
their business which is review
ed by the ASUO Senate and that
which is not.
The separation must meet
Senate approval, as must all
action the SAB takes.
SAB Chairman Steve Rhodes
said he has received complaints
from some senators who feel
that the present set-up which
requires the Senate to go
through all SAB decisions is un
necessary.
The separation would give
the Senate review power only
over SAB constitutional amend
ments, or policy changes, but
not the routine policy state
ments.
Stanford Proposes Reform
Of Under grad Education
By PHIL SEMAS
Collegiate Press Service
STANFORD, Calif.—A facul
ty-student committee has recom
mended a vast overhaul of un
dergraduate education at Stan
ford University, an institution
usually regarded as one of the
nation’s most prestigious but
also one of the most tradition
al.
The recommendations empha
size independent study, small
classes and changes in the aca
demic calendar and the grad
ing system.
A preliminary summary of the
proposals released by the cam
pus newspaper, the Stanford
Daily, outlines these changes:
• Every entering freshman
would participate in a tutorial
program in which the profes
sor would teach and advise no
more than 12 students.
This would eliminate fresh -
man English and western civili
zation courses, two mainstays
of undergraduate education on
most campuses as university
wide requirements for fresh
men. The teaching resources
now used in these courses would
be shifted to the tutorials.
Foreign language and labora
tory science courses would also
be eliminated as university -
wide requirements, although
they might still be required by
students’ major departments.
• The present A-B-C-D-F
grading system would be re
placed by a system under which
students would receive only an
A, B or C. Students who fail
courses would simply not get
credit for that course.
A student could be flunked
out of the university only if he
were falling behind in the num
ber of courses for which he
was gaining credit. Because of
its selective admissions policies,
however, Stanford loses only a
few students each year for aca
demic reasons.
• A one-week reading period
would be added prior to each
finals week. It would be free
from all classes and tests to
allow the students to review
their work ot the preceding
weeks. Stanford would also
change from a quarter to a se
mester system.
• A department could pre
scribe only half a student’s
workload, leaving the rest free
for liberal studies and indepen
dent work.
• All undergraduates would
have the option of designing
their own majors, subject to the
approval of a faculty member
and the dean of undergraduate
studies.
• Two other recommenda
tions to encourage independent
work would permit up to 10
students in each class to par
ticipate in an honors program
free of all course requirements
and establish a general educa
tion college to offer a com -
mon one-year program for no
more than 75 students.
The report, first of 10 to be re
leased this fall by the Study
of Education at Stanford, will
be considered by the faculty
later this month.
