By SHAWN ROSSITER Of the Emerald The College of Liberal Arts faculty reviewed and voted on curricular change recom mendations from the College Course Committee Monday and made very few amendments. Courses subject to new titles credit options, deletion, addition or other changes were listed for approval by College faculty members. In Geography, the course committee recommended the termination of Geography of Asia, Geography of the Soviet Union, Geography of East Asia and Geography of Southeast Asia. Reasons for the recommendation included a shifting of priorities from traditional course offerings to areas such as environmental geography. "We have no prospect of finding someone to teach Asian geography within the decade,” department head, Alvin Urquhart, said. "We can't afford the luxury... we have other priorities.” A motion was made to strike Geography of Asia and Geography tf the Soviet Union from the Cropped course recommendations and the motion passed, 22-18. Another faculty vote added four upper division Women's Studies classes to the University course list These are WS 401, Research; WS 405, Workshop; WS 407, Seminar, and WS 409, Practicum. Simmon sends letter to IFC... ( Continued from Page 3) IFC member Wendy Young. Another iFC member Jim Anderson, blasted Simmons, saying the letter was a "cheap shot, considering he (Simmons) didn't show up for the meeting." IFC Chairer Aiken said Simmons' feeling of committee "blackmail" was a "misunderstanding" of the committee's intent. Some IFC members said the intent of the memo was "humanitarian reasons and as a favor to Simmons." The information would only be relevant if the request were pressed at a public meeting. IFC member Farrell said the phone call was "made In a sense of fair play in that possible damaging information could come out in the meeting. Maybe we shouldn't have done it if that's the way he's going to react to it." He added, "We want him to have the opportunity to rebut these inferences publically because the information we have may not be correct We want to find out." Contacted by telephone after the meeting, Simmons told the Emerald that he had received a letter from LCC Director of Student Activities Jay Jones which said that Jones felt Sim mons, Jones, LCC Dean of Students Jack Carter and members of the IFC should meet to discuss the allegations. Simmons did not have the letter with him but said the letter stated that Jones was "getting tired of allega ons" being made against Simmons. briefs ( Continued from Page 2) Meetings Phi Theta Upsilons—There will be an im portant meeting of the Junior Women's Honorary tonight a* 8 p.m at the Alpha Chi House. 815 E 15th St. M iscellaneous If you are interested in studying in France, Germany or Japan, drop by the Foreign Study Program exhibit, which will be oarxed on 13th St. in front of Friendly Hal1 today from 10 a.m to 5 p.m and again Tuesday from 9 a.m to 5 p.m Featured is a slide-tape show aoou* the programs, which are sponsored by the Oregon State System of Higher Education and administered by Oregon State Unive' Sity Credits earned oy students enrolled In the French.

The second annual "Giant Support Pledge Record Auction” for radio station KWAX FM, located in Villard Hall, begins Saturday, Dec. 7. Beginning at 8 a.m., the auction will run a total of 36 hours — until 2 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. The radio station will auction off a selection of classical, opera, jazz, folk, contemporary rock and spoken arts record albums. Listeners who call in with the highest support pledge bid for a particular record will receive that album as a gift from the station. Last year's auction raised $800 for KWAX which was contributed towards board operators' salaries and the University Development Fund, according to station manager, John Shepherd. Money pledged during this year's auction will be used to expand the record library at KWAX and purchase equipment. KWAX is located at 91.1 on the FM radio dial.

Student controlled evaluation of courses and the revision of the Associated Library Students' constitution have kept ALS executive officers busy. The completion of a student evaluation of courses taken last spring has prompted discussion on students' rights and who should be responsible for such evaluations. The evaluation was authorized by the ALS Executive Council last spring, in an effort to allow individual students to voice their opinions concerning the direction and quality of their courses and to aid in the self study process. A reading and conference group, under the direction of Professor Perry morrison, will be issuing the same questionnaire issued last spring, at the end of this term. Tabulated results will not be issued to the students but the evaluations will be given to Dean Herman Totten.
