Kraus Says
Social Crises Are
AWARE's Concern
By KITTY McCASKILL
Staff Writer
"AWARE is made up of students concerned with certain
social crises in the U. S. and in the world," according to ad
viser, Dr. Jon Kraus
Kraus, in his second year in Carolina's international
studies department, is a specialist in African politics. This
fall AWARE asked him to be their adviser.
"They're a fairly laudable student group. They feel
they're basically trying to fulfill America's ideals," he said.
"The demands of various student groups for changes are
contagious. Some of these are kinds of demands it's very
difficult for an academic institution to accommodate," Kraus
continued.
"An institution like the University with vested interests
is bulky and tends to move very slowly. This makes young
people who don't have vested interests impatient.
"Of course because first these students are young and
second because they haven't had to make compromises,
they find the compromises older people have to make hypo
critical," he said.
Concerning the letter which the administration asked
AWARE to write stating its intentions to follow regulations,
Kraus said, "The leaders had said they would go by the
regulations of the students affairs committee.
"The main problem with AVARE on campus is that
they've been outspoken that certain regulations weren't
necessary. But it's one thing to challenge regulations and
another to avoid them," he said.
According to Kraus, "The ground rules of democratic be
havior are useful and a good thing in themselves. The prob
lem as students see it is that these ground rules are rarely
implemental on the University.
"The problem of student organizations is how to stimu
late others and draw them int:) student participation and
i,ot use means which will get them opprcssed," he said.

A continuing state of unholy

National Committee on United

viewed by The Gamecock.
"Given Chinese ambitions and
super-power pretentions, it is un
likely that we can look forward
to anything other than a con
tinuing state of unholy deadlock
in our relations with a country
which still pretends it is the center
of the world," he said.

adlock'
vanced people on earth. Their
contempt for the West is limit
less and is equalled only by their
ignorance of the outside world.
"Our policy over tne 19-year
period of existence of the Chin
ese Peo; le's Republic. though
obviously not designed in
heaven, has nevertheleis been
successful," Walker said in a
past lecture.
"We have, displayed a growing
understanding in our policies for
an area of the world for which we
had little preparation," he said.
"Today the weakness of main
land China, despite its atomic
capability, is apparent as never
before. The country is rent and
torn by factionalism approaching
civil war proportions; the intellec
tual community is utter disarray,
and the educational system frag
mented; in world affairs the
Chinese are isolated and at odds
with their fellow communists," he
said.
"The Mao regime has failed to
produce a meaningful answer to
the question of China's role in
world affairs. China's weakness
and disarray are unlikely to be
overcome in the near future.
"Contrary to what the all too
frequent critics of U. S. policy in
the Far East have asserted,
America has played a constructive
and balanced role in dealing wi.h
China both as a major power in
the Far East and as an area of
weakness," Walker said.
"All too frequently our delu
sions of the power of China and
our fixations about its self-im
posed isolation has caused us to
overlook developments which may
be far more important in the long
run," he said.
