Boyd postpones address University Pres. William Boyd postponed his state of the University address until next month s University Assembly because so few faculty members showed up for Wednesday’s 10-minute meeting. Boyd jcked with the sparsely attended assembly about the recent ice crisis, saying now he understood how the faculty felt having to “make their way across the ice” only to find an empty classroom waiting for them. Boyd stood by his decision this week not to close the University, because of the weather, saying there are as many problems with closing as with staying open. “The hazards are almost equal. He referred to problems caused by closing during a 1969 snowstorm, including trying to call faculty members back to work. Two agenda items for February’s Assembly meeting were an nounced Wednesday. Biology Prof. Bayard McConnaughy will propose that the ROTC military training contract with the University be termi nated as an "inappropriate activity” that is “inherently immoral, self defeating, and destructive to humanity...” Clarence Thurber of CSPA will present a motion to establish an undergraduate, interdisciplinary major in International Studies as prep aration for careers in diplomacy, business, teaching or other interna tional careers. The proposed major will be discussed at a meeting next Thursday at 2 30 p.m. in Room 101 of the EMU. Interested students and faculty are invited to attend, says Thurber. et al Theater films and workshops to be presented Mark Hall Amatin, recently back from a tour with playwright Ed ward Albee, presents "Visions For A Changing Theatre" at the Uni versity today and Friday.
