We will learn from experience We must
establish trust and confidence with the

emphasized the* need for better commune

Tate further said. "There were three
things that I didn t like about the protests
First. I didn t like the language that the
students were using in their marches
Also. I didn t like missing classes or the
way that the students try to simplify
things too much
Dean Louise McBee. also associate
dean of student affairs, said the irony of
the protests was that those who wanted
to hear President Davison refused to
iisten to him and jeered instead When
asked if the demonstrations were benefi
cial at all. Dean McBee said. Any time
that communications break down to the
point that a group of students refuse to
show respect to their university president
by listening to him. this is an unfortunate

BOTH PRKSIDENT Davison and O
Suthern Sims, dean of student affairs
commended the student government
members for their work in helping to alle
viate tensions during the demonstrations
Dean Sims emphasized that while indi
viduals should be allowed to exercise their
constitutional rights, when the peaceful
assembly turns into an uncontrollable
group, this becomes a difficult situation
Student body president Bob Hurley and
vice president Mike Willoughby both
agreed that concerned students)should be
allowed to express themselves peacefully
However, they both asserted that they
didn t agree with the idea of violence

debating whether Malcolm X was good or
bad he would be killed and (ire would be
gin to belch from the wings representing
Watts. Harlem. Newark and other cities
He said Malcolm X would live on in
blark memories and they would begin to
realize what "black power" means —
We ve got to stand together whatever
comes You've got to love yourself before
you can love anyone
He said a black student would appear
on the state ripping off his ROTC uniform
and explaining — "He ain't MY Uncle
Sam!"
Harding said black power" brought
new symbols of identity to black people
and some negative aspects such as "ar
rogance and the development of small
shiek black cliques" among black stu
dents He said blacks would still lack a
sense of direction as this act ends
Act three in Harding's drama would
begin, he said, with the singing of "Lve

Then "the fires would burn again, he
said, and blacks would hear admonitions

because they know it's not a time to be

HE SAID the scene would then shift to a
white college scene Black students, he
continued, would be demanding more

Dickson also said "children of com

The panel dismissed the threats of
right-wing militants like the Minutemen
by saying that they are "largely under

An audience member claimed that

Many denounced the "liberal news

Vietnam and Cambodia through black
eyes
Harding said that black students must
realize that they must have black heads
and black hearts and when they begin to
join the movement and to use these, then
the police are going to begin cracking
them open, and they must be expecting
this.
Harding said this continuing drama is
what black awareness is all about and it is
summarized in a poem by Don Lee which
ends. Black people are moving to take
over, to put the world back into the hands
of human beings

This year's conference, en
tirely planned by a group of 10
students from colleges all over

activities.
DURING the first day. the
conference broke up into two
groups for panel discussions.
The discussions concerned stu

some ideas to kick oil the con
ference." Hurley said
Following the panel discus
sions. the conference broke up
into small groups to discuss
pollution, institutional racism,
drugs, the Board of Regents,
and student dissent "The pur
pose of these groups was to
draw up proposals to be submit
ted to the next session of the
state legislature." commented
Hurley
THE SECOND day of the
conference consisted of a gen
eral meeting at which the par
ticipants debated whether or
not the proposals should be sent
to the legislature
One of the proposals is that
state police agents be kept off
college campuses during civil
disorders unless an act of viol
ence has been committed
Three other proposals are con-

cerned with the Board of Re
gents
These propsoals ask that
there be student representation
on the Board of Regents, that it
be mandatory for the Regents
to meet alternately at different
schools in the system, and that
student governments within the
university system be given the
right to appeal students regula
tions proposals directly to the
board if they are turned down
by the administrations of their
institutions
"'THIS WAS the best confer
ence of any type I've ever been
to." Hurley commented "Everv-
bodv was serious '
"It wasn't a back-slapping,
friendly conference," he con
tinued. "People were in con
flict Horn the beginning. The
students didn't hesitate to disa
gree with the legislators, and
vice versa . "
"I thought it was success
ful." Hurley commented "But
we ll see how much influence it
has when its proposals come
before the next session of the
legislature It will be interest
ing to see how the legislature
reacts.
"I have confidence that the
proposals will have a definite
effect on the legislators If not.
they'll hear about it from every
student government associa
tion in the state."
HOllOWAY
CAMPUS POLL
Do you agree with the decision made by Gov. Mad
dox and members of the Board of Regents to shut
down the University following demonstrations last
week?
HOLLY NAGLE, sophomore, home economics: "I
think the school should have been shut down out of
respect for the students killed at Kent State if for no
political reason."
RICK DEERY, sophomore. Arts and Science: "I
agree because when they closed it down there was no
one left here to do anything '
RUSSELL HOLLOWAY, sophomore, business ad
ministration: "I feel it should have been closed down.
1 feel that most people on the campus don't agree with
Nixon's policy in Cambodia. "
DAVID JOHN, sophomore, political science: "I
agree completely. It was the first time that the Board
of Regents had ever done anything for the students
that the students requested It was also a fitting trib
ute to the Kent State students "
ANITA FOSTER, freshman, economics: "I thought
they should have shut down the school but too many
people used the shutdown as an excuse to stay out of
classes."
TOM HENDRICK, senior, journalism: "No I disa
gree because the agitators were discriminating
against the other 17,000 students. When the Board of
Regents closes the school I don't have a choice wheth
er to go or not. I believe in what the people are protest
ing about, but they alienated me when they took away
my right to go to school Friday, whether I wanted to or
X not sni/mv.* ....
