State Board tables
dorm live-in policy
By ADRIENNE JAMES
Of the Emerald
PORTLAND (Special) — A
policy statement on residence
hall living at the University was
tabled at a joint meeting Tues
day of the three standing sub
committees of the State Board
of Higher Education at Port
land State University.
After an hour’s discussion,
the members concurred with
Chancellor Roy Lieuallen’s sug
gestion that the recommenda
tion be tabled due to present
proposals before the legislature
concerning increases in tuition
and dorm fees, which may next
year affect the occupancy in
dorms.
Current regulations prohibit
freshmen under 21 years of age
from living off campus except
with parents or relatives. The
University had objected to this
rule, and was asking the State
Board to overturn it.
Votes favor end
In a recent primary election
referendum the students had
voted 1,476 to 318 in favor of
ending the present freshman
live-in policy. Acting President
Charles Johnson, former ASUO
President Dick Jones, the Stu
dent Conduct Committee and
the ASUO Senate had all
sought a change in the present
policy.
Lieuallen said, “rather then
devoting significant time to the
discussion on the topic today,
the board should reaffirm the
present arrangement by taking
no action and adding only gen
eral advice to the institution
when considering living-in poli
cies. The institution should be
sensitive to the wishes of par
African changes
seminar theme
“Problems of Change in Af
rica” will be the theme of a
summer workshop at the Uni
versity for which 16 fellowships
are available.
The seminar, sponsored by
the University’s Committee on
African Studies, will deal with
the economic, social and politi
cal questions which beset all of
Africa, but especially the new
nations, according to Fred Mc
Evoy, instructor in anthropol
ogy who is directing the work
shop-seminar.
A number of specialists on Af
rican affairs, both from the Uni
versity and outside, will lecture
during the June 23 to July 18
seminar.
The fellowships are $125 each.
Application forms may be ob
tained from the Institute of In
ternational Studies, the anthrop
ology department, the Office of
the Foreign Student Advisor
and the International Education
Center in the EMU.
Completed applications are
due at the institute by May 29.
Preference for the scholarships
will be given advanced under
graduates and graduate stu *
dents in social science fields.
Previous course work dealing
with sub-Saharan Africa is de
sirable but not required.
Workshop fees will amount to
$93. The workshop will offer six
credit hours with optional grad
ing.
ents and particularly to cases
of exception.”
The Board’s proposal em
bodies no major changes in the
present policies. The decision
as to where freshmen students
are to live will still be made
by the University with added
involvement by parents, who
must request that a student be
permitted to live off campus if
an exception is to be made.
Joint decision
Concern was expressed that
dropping the University’s live
in policy, making dormitory liv
ing a decision to be reached
jointly by the student and par
ent, may adversely affect the
dormitory living regulations
and levels of occupancy of other
state institutions.
Russell Sadler, chairman of
the Inter-Institutional Commit
tee on Higher Education
(ISCOHE), stated before the
meeting, “The way the recom
mendation is stated, it works
inversely from the way it is
intended. The same object is
accomplished, but the decision
should be a parent/student de
cision made at home, not a
university/parent decision.
Since the new president has to
live with the reaction of the
proposal, it should be up to
him to present you with the
terms and such terms as he pre
fers at a later time.”
Man killed at Berkeley
Campus disturbances resume
By ART BUSHNELL

Disturbances resumed Tuesday on the Uni
versity of California at Berkeley campus, after
a man shot during last Thursday’s disorders be
came the first fatality in campus unrest this
year.
A “march of mourning” led by faculty mem
bers, was held at noon Tuesday for James Rector,
a 25-year-old non-student from San Jose, who
died Monday night.
Students claim the shot that wounded Rector
was fired by police. According to Associated
A rally in support of the protesting stu
dents at the University of California in Ber
keley is scheduled for today. The rally,
planned by the Peace and Freedom Party,
will begin at 12:30 p.m. at the Free Speech
Platform, according to Blaine Ackley.
Press reports, police were claiming that only
birdshot-loaded shotguns were fired.
The march, which included over 1,000 students,
according to a staffer of the Daily Californian,
the Berkeley student paper, was blocked by Na
tional Guardsmen with fixed bayonets.
The marchers turned up the street where they
were again blocked, said the Daily. They then
proceeded to the chancellor’s house, where they
chanted “murderer.”
The crowd split over the campus, where the
Daily said the students were sprayed by gas from
one of three helicopters circling over the cam
pus.
While talking to the Emerald on the telephone,
the staffer described an incident which he was
witnessing from his office window. He described
the Alameda County Police moving in and set
ting up grenade launchers and then firing gas
into dormitory quads to keep the people inside.
The incident was described as involving “not
many people, but a helluva lot of gas.”
The People’s Park, over which the series of
disrupions began, is now occupied by the Na
tional Guard and the students can’t get near it,
according to the Daily.
Elsewhere, gunfire erupted Monday at Lincoln
University in Jefferson City, Mo., as three cam
pus buildings, including a new student lounge,
were damaged by fire. Damage to the three
year-old lounge was estimated at over $600,000.
Johnson to discuss budqet
The ASUO Fiscal Committee
has arranged a meeting with
President Johnson Monday aft
ernoon to discuss the reasons
behind the recommendations
given him for the budget.
Included in the discussion
will be the initial committee
recommendation which in
cluded over $200,000 for the
athletic department. The ma
jority report, the final recom
mendation of the committee,
which gave no money to the
athletic department, will also
be under discussion.
The meeting will also cover
the Senate’s recommendation
which advised a $100,000 re
serve.

summer sessions, you .
