Lamson details policy shift:

new role for Nyha rt,Advisory Board

By Alex Makowski' The faculty Wednesday over-

whelmingly- approved a new cal-endar featuring a month-long"independant activity" break.

Earlier,. students of the Uni-versal Life Church temporarilydisrupted the meeting. Pusheddown the stairs by an unidenti-fied professor, Larry Ludwig wastaken to the infirmary for X-rays.

Passage of the calendar pro-posal capped two years of studyby a CEP subcommittee and aspecial calendar committeechaired by Professor RoyMunkres, The new plan will gointo effect this fall, with classesstarting September 14.

FinalsFinals, however, are relatively

unaffected. To divorce the issueof phasing out finals from theindependent study concept, fivedays were set aside at the end ofeach term for exams, as well astwo days for a reading period.

The trial of George Katsiafi-cas '70, and Pete Bohmer G, wasset for March 31 at a briefhearing before the -county judgeTuesday morning.

The date was set after theagreement of both the prosecut-ing and defense attorneys. How-ever, Daniel Klubock, Bohmerand Katsiaficas's lawyer, is pre-sently attempting to reschedulethe trial since the present date,falls during MIT's spring vaca-tion and would pose difficultiesfor defense witnesses.

According to Klubock, thereshould be no great difficulty inchanging the trial date since it isusually set by the agreement .ofboth parties.

Klubock also presented a me-nmorandurm to the Court support-ing his motion for the dismissal

the second half of the newdormitory being built on westcampus, ha's been, delayed forsimilar reasons.

GiftsIn the past, when minor defi-

cits have resulted, funds fromunrestricted gifts have been usedto cover them. At the presenttime, the estimated deficit forfuture years will increase muchmore rapidly than will thesegifts. Many gifts that MIT re-ceives must be geared towards aspecific project, as was true ofthe funds donated for McGregorI.

MIT is not the only universityexperiencing financing problems.The University of Pennsylvaniais in debt to banks for about $9million, and Other universities inthat state, including the Uni-versity of Pittsburgh and Penn-sylvania State University are indebt for three and four timesthat amount.

The state of New York hasfound a partial solution to theseproblems. It pays each universitywithin the state a set fee foreach Ph.D. degree it confers nomatter what state the particularstudent may have come from.Universities in Massachusetts andother states are hoping for simi-lar policies.

Mr. Cusick said there are rela-tively few problems where un-dergraduates are concerned, asopposed to graduate students. Infact, this year MIT will accept3% fewer graduate students thanlast year. In the case of under-graduates, scholarship funds arestill increasing at about the samerate as costs.

By Warren LeonardMIT is facing a funding crisis

that could have some seriouseffects beginning in fiscal year1974.

At a meeting held in thestudent center last Wednesday,Comptroller Paul Cusick out-lined MIT's expenses and reve-nues for the current fiscal year.He indicated that there -will be adeficit of about $2 million.

Minus $17 millionThis year's $2 million is only

the tip of ark iceberg. Projectingfinancial figures for the next fewyears, Cusick saw the defeitclimbing to a total of $4.5 mil-lion by 1972, $9.5 million -by1973, and a staggering $ 1 7 mi!-lion by 1974.~ These figures ig-nore any effects that migt re-sult from the divestment of theSpecial 'Labs.. Money from the government,

especially from the National Sci-ence Foundation, is being re-duced. Other funds, such asthose special 'funds allotted tomaintain C.L.E. Moore Instruct-ors of Mathematics, will beeliminated within the next fewyears. The government no longerconsiders their research vital tothe defense of the nation.

InflationAnother major factor is infla-

tion. Mr. Cusick estimates that itcosts MIT approximately $2.5million additional each year tomaintain- its present 'size andcommitments, without expand-aing at all.

ConstructionAlbert Hill, Vice President for

Research, noted that the con-struction of new buildings oncampus has suffered 'due to themoney situation. Plans for a newelectrical engineering buildingwere prepared a few years ago.By the time the design for thebuilding was completed, the es-timated cost of the building hadrisen by over a million dollars.The building was then rede-signed; by the time the new "lessexpensive" design was prepared,inflation sent this price up towhat it would have cost to buildthe building as previously de-signed. As of now, constructionhas been indefinitely delayed.Construction of McGregor II,

Lamson noted that the Com-mittee had recently met with thestudent Task Force on JudicialProcedures to discuss thechanges. Reporting "only twopoints of non-agreement," heassured the faculty that an un-derstanding between the twogroups was likely.

Science Distribution Subjectswere another topic of discussion.The Committee on Cirriculumrecommended a broadening ofthe distribution requirement, achange accomplished by permit-ting students to take these distri-bution courses without regard tofield. All courses, for example,could be taken in one depart-ment, provided at least two weretaken outside of one's major.

Several faculty members tookissue with the proposal. Profes-sor Eliot, for example, offeredthe "philosophical argument"that students should be encour-aged to sample subjects removed

MIT E VISIOI SHEALTH CENTERWITH HYlR¥/X

By Lee GiguereA proposal for a joint Har-

vard-MIT Medical Center waspresented to the faculty Wed-nesday.

Heralded as a new advance inthe uniting of science and tech-nology with medicine, theCenter would offer all but un-paralleled opportunities forteaching and research.

Harvard progressAt its March 13 meeting, the

Faculty of Medicine at Harvardvoted a resolution very stronglysupporting the proposal: "TheFaculty of Medicine favors theestablishment of a joint Har-vard-MIT School of HealthSciences ' Snd Technology tofoster the development ofhealth-related programs of ed-ucation, research and service be-tween the institutions, providedthat the necessary new resourcescan be obtained."

The new School would be setup as a school within the presentstructure of MIT and as a schoolin the Faculty of Medicine atHarvard.

In other business, ProfessorRoy Lamson read the faculty astatement on discipline pro-cedures detailing several soon-to-be-adopted changes. Nolonger will the Dean for StudentAffairs act as prosecuter; hisonly function will be to transmitcharges to the Discipline Com-mittee. Henceforth, MIT willprovide legal advice for com-plainants preparing charges anddefendants called to hearings.

fifteen minutes, the radicals lefton their own when the IFCmembers expressed little interestin their staying.

The radical fraternity bro-thers also distributed a leafletpresenting their arguments forWomen's Liberation.

The speakers pointed out theidentification of many frater-nities with the "materialistic,chauvanistic"' ideals of the Play-boy Club. They also arguedagainst the use of women as "sexobjects" for the satisfaction ofthe male.

"Closed" meetingsAnother point the radicals

presented was that the., IFC is anelitist organization which holds"closed" meetings in exclusiverestaurants. They felt that theIFC, as their representative bo-dy, should not meet -under suchcircumstances.

Several of the radicals spoke,each giving his view on the is-sues. Their positions rangedfrom opposition to the way inwhich women are treated in fra-ternity houses so that they willbe "impressed" with their dates,to the need for equality betweensexes and the right of women torelate to men-on an equal basis.

The radicals were accompa-nied by several women living atthe -Commonwealth (formerlyTau Epsilon Phi).

Most of the IFC membersresponded only with quiet atten-tion to the speakers, although atleast two expressed an interest inwhat the radicals were trying todo.

was unnecessarily critical.During the meeting, about

twenty members of the newlyformed Fraternity Radical Cau-cus entered the gathering at theBoston Playboy Club. Chanting"free our sisters, free ourselves,"the leftists came to protest malechauvinism and elitism in MITfraternities.

Discipline motionThe resolution on discipline

read: "Moved, that this body,feeling the current Faculty Disci-plire Committee is no longercapable of resolving disputeswithin the MIT Community, re-quests that the newly electedJudicial Committee Chairmanand all other officers attempt tointercede on behalf of any fra-ternity man called before theFaculty Discipline Committee toprevent unfair treatment, what-ever the cause, of the aforemen-tioned fraternity man."

Fearful that the language ofthe motion might cause its toneto be mis-interpreted, the IFCExecomm met Wednesday nightto issue the following clarifica-tion: "This motion should notbe interpreted as a reflectionupon the group of individuals onthe Faculty Disciplipe Commit-tee, but rather upon the proce-dures of the Faculty DisciplineCommittee as they existed at thetime of this motion."

The InterFraternity Councilhas authorized its officers tointercede on behalf of fraternitymen brought 'before the Disci-pline Committee.

At the regular monthly meet-irag Tuesday night, the resolu-tion, introduced by Pete Kramer'70, Sigma Alpha Mu, passedeasily, though some representa-tives argued that the wording

of charges.His memorandum asserts that

while "the complaint charges de-fendants 'with interrupting ordisturbing a school,'" by thenarrow definition of "school" asit is used by the legislature, MITis not properly a school but an"institution of higher -educa-tion." Klubock cont6nds thatthis invalidates the complaintand is grounds for dismissal.

Klubock's second contentionis that the law itself is vague inits definition of the offense. Hepointed out that the phrase"willfully interrupts ordisturbs,"under which Katsiaficas andBohmer are charged, could applyto someone asking a question orspeaking without being calledupon. His memorandum con-tinues with the assertion that thestatute'is 'void for vagueness."

By Harvey BakerNew York is an ugly mess.So is a- lot of Bo s t o n . And

Philadelphia. And Chicago. Andmany more. What can be doneabout it?

The talk now is chiefly about"Model Cities," "Urban Renew-al," and "Slum beautification."What it all boils down to, how-ever, is a -lot of crap. The kind ofmoney that would actually beneeded to "transform" our citiesjust isn't available. And everyone.'knows it. One mayor last yearspoke in terms of the nationneeding "a trillion dollars." Well,there's no trillion dollars com-ing, and even if there. were, theinvestment would be question-able.

Our cities are becoming un-governable. In New York thesanitation workers, the cab driv-ers, the subway employees, thenewspaper type setters, the ConEd electricians, the telephonecompany men, and the teachershave all gone on strike in the lastfew years. Minor industries arealso plagued. The cost of livinghas skyrocketed. Conditions inBedford-Stuyvesant, Harlem,and Spanish Harlem have gottenworse, not better. Crime is ram-pant.- Assault, muggings, andrapes are commonplace. Themayor is frustrated and per-plexed.

Critics of American foreignpolicy prate a lot about "notpouring money into an Asianrathole." What's the differnene

between that and pouringmoney into an American rat-hole? Faced with decreasingfederal aid, and higher state andlocal costs, our -cities are walkinga tightrope. Major problems in-clude mass transportation, pollu-tion, air and traffic control, veryfew-of which were consideredfirst-rate problems even just afew years ago.

Being a good mayor :- pe-haps the toughest job in thecountry. The promising Lindsaymayoralty has flopped. Alioto ofSan Francisco has been linkedwith the-Mafia. Carl Stokes ofCleveland has indicated he willnot run again. No one takes LosAngeles Mayo r Sam Yorty seri-ously. Kevin White of Boston

survives only because he is I4ishin an Irish city. He too, however,will likely opt for a shot at thegovernorship rather than con-tinue as Mayor. And in Chicago,well, there is Mayor Daley. . .

Additionally, the cities arebecoming, as everyone .knows,more and more black-populated.In time, black people will be inthe majority in most all 'majOrcities; whites will continue theirflight, preserving a tax base inthe suburbs, while eroding it andconsumer services in the city.Industries will migrate outeof thecities to spare their employeesthe necessity of commutingthrough the slums. And the fed-eral government will promisemore and more money; just assoon as the Vietnam War is over,

Anyone who read the entirearticle would have noticed thestrange wording of the ruling;the real difficulty was one ofpublication deadlines (one hourafter the end of the trial) andconvoluted legalese. Note thatother campus papers, which hadmore time to study this equivo-cal ruling, still had some difficul-ty 'n agreeing upon an exactinterpretation' What could ER-GO possibly gain by intentional-ly misrepresenting the facts?

On the other hand, reasoningthat ERGO did disservice tologic from one-half of the head-line (Trespassers Found Guilty:Continuance Until Nov 5") is anevasion of 'the available facts(the full headline, article andapology). "There is, of course,another explanation for the in-accuracies of [his letter], but Ihave chosen the kinder one."

Stefan.Unger

To the Editor:For the second' time I find

that I -must write to you con-cerning a letter directed againstERGO, which was sent to andpublished by T.HE TECH beforeERGO had a chance to correctitself in print (as was done in theMarch 18th issue). ERGO printsall responsible letters for whichit has space; Professor Katz'sletter concerning ERGO's cover-age of the trial of the 28 stu-dents would surely have beenprinted if sent to us. Why thiswas not done remains a mystery.

Objectivity in reporting doesnot mean omniscience or omni-potence. Rather, it means rigor-ous honesty in presenting allavailable facts Without intention-al distortion or omission. ERGOdid not intentionally misrepre-sent the ruling of the Judge asreported to us by our reporter.

betterand in time, there will be a little,given to the local officials to dowith As they see fit, and never,of course, to be seen again.

This tragic' picture is all tooaccurate, but can, perhaps, beavoided. The only workable so-lution is to build new cities. Thisfortunately, is practical in thatprivate sectors of the economyin addition to the government,have-:ldicated their willingnessto give it a try. Whereas a deve-loper might not invest in a run-down 'slum, he just might in apromising new city.

Ner cities would be a boomto business, would take a lot ofpressure off old,' tired ones,would create, employment athigh construction industry wagesfor the nation's unemployed,would serve to soak up thenation's burgeoning population,and would better balance thegeographical distribution of thepopulace. Further, the numberof people in,--for example,.N.wYork, Could shrink to about 4-6

-:milion, .rather than 8-9 like to-day. The city would not be socumbersome and huge as to laywaste the efforts of one whotries to govern it in a civilmanner. No - more wouldcramped streets, traffic, crime,and pollution- necessarily besynonomous with cities.

The cost would be great, butthe promise would be' greater, iffor no other reason than that inthe end, after all the money hadbeen spent, we'd have something-'new housing and industry forour people..

Americans would have a defi-nite sense- of purpose in theyears ahead, one that far out-strips the empty promises of theGreat Society. After all, it surebeats hanging around, waiting-for the Vietnam War to end. -Atthat rate, we'd probably. neverget started.

London projected that thefull range of programs could bein effect in the "next three tofive years," with a gradual addi-tion of courses and recruiting offaculty during that period. Ap-proxirnlmte!-, 50 full-time staffmembers and a similar numberof junior faculty members wouldbe associated with the School, aswell as 300 to 400 students. Anundergraduate in the Schoolwould be registered in one of theparent institutions and wouldreceive his degree from an appro-epriate department in that institu-tion. Graduate students wouldalso receive their degrees fromone of the parent institutionsunless no existing degree ap-plied, inl which case the Schoolitself would grant a degree.

London hopes that theSchool will develop as'commun-ity scholarship addressed tohealth needs." He also notedthat there is an opportunity forinterested students to sit on theplanning committees for tileSchool.

(Continued from page 3)Essentially and briefly, the

paper recommends that the ag-greived (whoever it may be) beoffered counsel by the Institutein preparation of charges. It re-commends the offer of counselalso to the accused in respondingto charges. It provides that theCommittee review the chargesand response and decide whetheror not to hear the case. Underthe new proposal, the Dean forStudent Affairs acts not as aprosecutor but as a transmitterof charges to the Committee.

This proposal has been readand discussed by the Committeeon Educational Policy; by theChairman of the Judicial Com-mittee of the MIT Commission,and by several legal counsel.

There are two brief com-ments I wish to make in answerto, letters, telephone calls, andpersonal talks. The first is on thesuggestion - that the Instituteshould have in operation a veryspecific code of.conduct, in viewof demands by some publiccourts that educational institu-tion's "formulate elaborately de-tailed codes of conduct com-parable to the criminal statutesof a state." The Committee hasoperated on the basis of a fewbasic rules of MIT and has, wethink, along with the RogersPanel, contributed to the de-velopment of what might becalled Common Law for MIT.We are ready to assist any Insti-tute judicial group with whatknowledge and experience wehave, but wish to point out thatthe Judicial Committee of theMIT Commission under Profes-sor Searle has this problem asone of its major concerns. Onemember of the Committee onDiscipline is also a member ofProfessor Searle's Committee.

A last comment is on recentinuffqirres-'b-uTE-6¥fiuIltee-hter-ings on cases already heard bythe courts. The Committee doesnot view such hearings as"double jeopardy," but on ad-

vice of counsel has'taken a posi-tion which is essentially that ofthe American Bar Association'sCommission on campus govern-ment and student unrest recent-ly issued:

"... the fact that a stu-dent has been tried in thecriminal courts does not pre-clude the assertion of an ap-propriate disciplinarysanction against him by theuniversity. There is no legalbasis for the claim of "doublejeopardy" in such a case.

Undergraduate role-The Committee on Discipline

invited the Undergraduate As-sembly Task Force to meet withit three days ago to discuss theproposal. The Undergraduate As-sembly Task Force offered sug-gestions for changes, and therenow remain only two points ofnon-agreement, which I feel canbe straightened out. They dealwith preliminary' review ofcharges by the Committee, andthe duties and privileges of the,presiding officer at Committeehearings.

The choice of counselors tothe aggreived and to the accusedis being made. The Committee,formerly dependent on an over-worked but very cooperativeDean's Office staff, has acquiredpart-time secretarial and admin-istrative assistance. My estimateis that in a week or ten days wecould be ready to put our newsystem to work.

Better judiciary It is not new in the sense of

being original or novel. It doesnot alter the basic policies, pro-cedures, or rules and regulations,but it does make possible, we allhope,' a better judicial instru-ment for the MIT Community.Finally, it does not set up. anirrevocable system or precludefurther changes and develop-ment of the Committee and thejudicial system for MIT. I shouldlike to add that with the addi-tion of Mr. Andrew Mermell '72,

-whom the Undergraduate As-sembly had chosen to replaceMr. Peter Kramer, who resignedon January 9, the Committee isagain at full strength.

By Lee GiguereThree experimental- student-

taught subjects are being offeredat MIT this term.

The classes form the first partof a one-year experiment,.limit-ed to five classes per term, being,conducted by the Committee onEducational Policy to determinethe feasibility of subjects "in-itiated and taught by students."

A joint sfudent-faculty com-mittee set up by the CEP issupervising the program and ischarged to report to them at theend of the fall term.

This semester, classes in"Aminerican Folk Music," "UrbanProblems and Actions," and"Political Development in Rev-olutionary Societies: China andCuba" are being taught by stu-dents. Robert .Lidral '71 andJeffrey Chasin ;70 are con-ducting the :folk music class,Susan Shirk G and Carol Bengels-

dorf G, the political develop-ment- class, and a group of theUrban Action Fellows ttheurbanproblems class. : -

Classes going wellAccording to Professor of

Philosophy Richard Cartwright,chairman of the Committee onStudent-Taught Courses, thecourses have been going well.sofar" and he felt that "if thequality is as good next term,"there is a strong possibility thatthe experiment will be recom-mended-for continuation.

The courses weredevelopedand are being carried out indifferent ways, but. thne stu-dent-teachers asserted that theyfound it a satisfying and inter-esting experience.

. Robert' Lidral said that hisfok- music'class developed be-cause he had wanted to take asimilar subject but had foundthat none was taught. He felt

clude a "detailed statement ofthe content of the subject" andprovide an outline of the mate-rial and the speed with which itwill be covered.

Each class is required to havea faculty "monitor." This semes-ter, the monitors have been sug-gested by the student-teachersand approved by the committee.The monitors sit in on the class-es but do not participate. Asso-ciate Professor of Political Sci-ence Donald Blackmer, monitorof the political development class,has been "helpful but not ob-strusive," according to SusanShirk. He had talked with themwhile they were formulating thesubject, and now the tendency isfor them to ask his advice ratherthan for him to feel he has tocriticize. The Urban Fellows are"getting on" with their monitor,Louis Menand, Executive Officerof .the Political Science Depart-ment. He lets them run the classpretty much on their own, butprovides feedback on what hap-pens in out-of-class meetings.

The Committee on Student-Taught Subjects is now seekingproposals for the fall term,which must be in by April 15 sothat it will have sufficient timeto evaluate them. Cartwrightfeels that the committee needsapproximately six weeks to con-sider proposals and noted thatthere was insufficient time to setup this semester's program.

Students may teach any sub-ject in which they are qualified,and Cartwright feels that thiscould result in the "uncoveringof legitimate subject matterswhich have not yet been in-corporated in university curricu-lum."

areas of health, education,housing, welfare, and trans-portation, and each of the stu-dents is expected to do fivehours of field work with some·community agency. The fieldwork, he said, provides input forthe class and experience to back-up discussion. Dean "loves"being a teacher and likes the factthat nobody has "absoluteauthority." The students, hefeels, respond pretty well, andhe noted that while the contentis different, the process of whatgoes on in 'the class does notdiffer very much from otherclasses.

Students more openGary Gut '70, another of the

Urban Fellows teaching theclass, said that it "hasn't quitelived up to my expectation indissolving, student-teacher dis-tinctions." Gut said, however,that he is learning a lot morehimself. He also pointed out thatthe students have to take a lotmore responsibility in the classand hence behave differently.He, like Susan Shirk, felt thatstudents are more open in stu-dent taught classes.

Both the political develop-ment and the urban actionclasses are being graded pass-fail.

The procedure for setting upa class involves the preparationof a written proposal of thesyllabus. The charge of the com-mittee calls on it to evaluate theintellectual value of the subjectand the qualifications of thestudent teacher. Emphasis is giv-en to the belief that a studentshould not endanger his ownacademic standing because he isteaching. The syllabus must in-

that he learned. a lot more thanhe had-expected to. Most of thestudents in his class are veryinterested in the field, he said,and "don't-really care wherethey get the information from."The' course is being gradedA-/B/F,. with strict minimum re-quirements, based on either apaper, a short talk, or a recordof information gathered duringthe courses, but Lidral did notforesee much difficulty in havingto assign grades.

Result of discussionsSusan Shirk said that the class

she is teaching with Carol Ben-gelsdorf grew out of discussionsthey had on Cuba and China.They felt that they had so muchto say to each other that theywanted to teach a class in thesubject. They originally at-tempted to set it up as a subjectwithin the Political Science De-partment, but were unsuccessfuluntil they contacted the CSTS.

Miss Shirk found that teach-ing the class has really motivatedher "to understand the subject,"and has left her feeling goodabout being productive. Shefeels that people who are takingthe course are enthusiastic aboutthe material and that her class ismore relaxed than the usualclasses. She said that the class is"sort 'of a group effort, but theteachers are recognized as such."

Geff Dean '70, one of theUrban Action Fellows, said thattheir course originated throughinformation from Gary Gut,who is a Fellow and on the CEP.He noted that, h e course is"designed to introduce possibleUrban Fellows to the problemswe see," and how to deal withthem. The course covers the
