Sensing the
News
By Thurman Sensing
EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT
Southern States Industrial Council
Ihe trouble at America's
colleges and universities, far
from lessening, has worsened
markedly in the last few
months. Virtual guerrilla
warfare is in progress at San
Francisco State University,
where teachers have been
assaulted and bombs have been
planted. At the Berkeley
campus of the University of
California, it has been neces
sary to keep a large contingent
of riot police at the ready for a
lengthy period.
But the highly publicized
ditticulties at these institution:
is only a small part of the
story. Trouble is taking place
or brewing at a wide range of
institutions, ranging from new
urban colleges to famous old
! universities.
j One of the most fantastic
| developments is taking place at
Federal City College in the
nation's capital. Black separa
tists are in a majority on the
faculty, and normal academic
lite has been twisted into weird
patterns. Ihe college even
teaches a course in "black
mathematics", whatever that
may be. Though the college has
more than 30,000 books in its
library, book circulation is run
ning at only about 60 a week,
indicating that little studying is
taking place. Professors who
want to teach are looking for
other jobs. New professors are
being recruited, not on the
basis of academic credentials
but on their records of involve
ment with black power groups.
t he nation's institutions of
higher education are paying the
price for years of permissive
ness. Instead of cracking down
on campus lawbreakers, college
J and university authorities have
talked about establishing a
"dialogue" with militant stu
dents. Naive administrators
don't seem to realize that it is
impossible to reason with
anarchists and hoodlums. The
word “hoodlum" is used
advisedly, for some of the mili
tants are raiding student activi
ties fee accounts in order to
finance their revolutionary
action on campus. Investiga
tion is underway at San Fran
cisco State University that may
lead to prosecutions for grand
larceny.
In a few places, college
authorities are beginning to
take the stern attitude that is
needed The president of Notre
Dame University has warned
that law-breaking student dem
onstrators will be given 15
minutes to “meditate" and
change their ways. Otherwise
they will be expelled. If col
leges had expelled riotous stu
dents, instead of suspending
them for a short time, the situ
ation would not be out of
hand. No college or university
should be a privileged sanc
tuary for anarchists and prac-
Looking
at
Wildlife
By Dave Almand
THIS IS GOODBYE
To anyone who might have
been forming a wildlife book
by collecting these weekly
“Looking at Wildlife” columns,
this will serve as the final chap
ter.
Os the 177 articles I’ve pre
pared since we initiated the
column in 1965, 1 must admit
this has been my hardest to
write. In fact, it makes me a
little sad to write it for in so
doing I’m ending what has
been a highly enjoyable and
rewarding career with the Uni
versity of Georgia Cooperative
Fixtension Service.
But my ties with Georgia
and with the Cooperative Ex
tension Service will not be
severed, they will simply be
enlarged to include the other
49 states. My new duties will
be with the Federal Extension
Service the educational arm of
the U. S. Department of Agri
culture in Washington, D. C.
There I will have the responsi
bility of developing a wildlife
program for the Extension
Service on a national level and
I’m looking toward to these
new challenges with great
pleasure.
On the other hand, I am,
going to miss the close associa
tions with my friends here in
Georgia. Through our exten
sion wildlife program, we have
formed enjoyable working rela
tionships with the Game &
Fish Commission, Georgia
Sportsman’s Federation and
the many other public and
private groups engaged in wild
life and conservation activities.
I will miss working with coun
ty agents and other members
of the extension family in
Georgia who are, in reality, the
cornerstones for our educa
tional efforts.
Georgia is a great state and
one blessed with bountiful
wildlife resources. It is gratify
ing to see a growing number of
Georgians who are realizing
titioners of civil disobedience.
In the case of the new Notre
Dame policy, President Nixon
hailed this policy as right and
proper. Unfortunately, some
college presidents and liberal
co in men t a tors immediately
criticized the President and
Notre Dame. The Nixon Ad
ministration also has reported
and it is a highly encouraging
development that the Justice
Department soon will take
action against militant student
agitators who cross state lines
to foment riots. A sweeping
investigation of campus mili
tants is in order and overdue.
More than law is needed,
however. What's essential is a
reassertion of the rights and
privileges of university authori
ties and a rebuke to self-impor
tant student racials who pre
sume to tell trustees and ad
ministrators what they should
do. This kind of presumption
was evident last month at the
University of Virginia where
something called the “Student
Coalition" and a "human rela
tions” chapter sought to dic
tate to the Board of Visitors at
U. Va.
Ihe leftist Students for a
Democratic Society (SDS), in
cooperation with the radical
Southern Students Organizing
Committee (SSOC), held a
demonstration on the grounds
of the university. Demonstra
tors presented a series of
demands for removal of a
member of the Board of Visi
tors, appointment of black
faculty and administrators, and
change in the university’s pay
scale for employes.
In short, the demonstrators
made demands covering
matters in which they have no
competence or authority. The
demonstration was followed up
by emotional tirades in which
it was said the "University of
Virginia must prove itself to
the black community.” A
member of the university
board was termed "a piggish
symbol of racism.” The idea of
a minority of radicals dictating
to the great university founded
by Thomas Jefferson no doubt
disgusts thinking people far
beyond the borders of the Old
Dominion. Such action is not
confined to the University of
Virginia; it is taking place
nationwide.
A university is supposed to
be a place of learning, where
national and state traditions
are respected, and where civi
lized discussion is the rule.
There is no place in a true
university for those who shout
or write abuse and who
attempt to usurp lawful
authority of trustees and ad
ministrators. Students who
can’t behave like gentlemen
should be denied the privilege
of continued university
attendance.
this fact. Wildlife is being asso
ciated more and more with the
dollar bill. It is not only
common sense, but a basic fact
that the economic importance
of wildlife must be recognized
if it is to compete for other
land uses.
While Georgians have made
magnificent contributions in
the field of wildlife and other
natural resources programs in
the state and nation, we still
accumulate deficits in some
areas and with some resources.
We must remember that one
day we will be required to
balance our conservation
budget and learn to live on the
income from the resource
budgets without drawing
further upon their capital
structure.
I his is perhaps our greatest
challenge. It will take big
people with broad minds with
the good of mankind and the
welfare of our state and nation
at heart, to successfully con
quer these problems. This must
be a team effort. It cannot
succeed by the actions of a few
individuals or a few organiza
tions any more than a football
team can win a ball game with
only the quarterback and a few
other select players. To suc
ceed this team must function
as a total unit and it is evident
that such a team is being built
in Georgia and the extension
service is proud to be a part of
it.
While Georgians can look
with pride to what has been
accomplished, we need to
strive even harder in planning
and developing programs
geared to meet the challenges
of tomorrow. The extension
service in carrying out the edu
cational responsibilities with
which it has been charged by
Congress will continue to work
with others toward this end.
Thus, it will not be goodbye to
Georgia for me but rather hello
to the even larger team which
we now join.
