Creativf 'hurts' 1 By SCOTT DERKS News Editor "I believe in hurting a student'i feelings-it gets his attention ant gets results." Tim Gautreaux teaches tw classes of creative writing t freshmen and though his sarcasn is sometimes biting he said that h< hopes his students look past tht remark to the comment. "I don' just want to develop good fresh man writers; I want to develo; good writers," Gautreaux said. The course was begun thig semester as an experiment and ni decision has been made on its use next year. EXPRESSION "I enjoy teaching freshmen; they have more freedom of ex pression. They have fresh, oper minds which are unsophisticatec and ready to try new ideas and nol influenced by previous course work." Students are allowed con siderable freedom on writing topics and often a student's work if used to teach the class. When s poem or a short story is reat before the class his work is "oper to the entire class and his writing il judged. If he has done badly he i' embarrassed into writing better,' Gautreaux said. LOW GRADES One student said, "The class isn't really taught-it's a learning session where you obtain in formation for writing. It en courages creative thought." Another student, less ethusisatic because of the low gradef characteristically given in the class. remarked that he could see the change in his writing and knew he had learned a great deal bu said, "You never know what'E oing to ha p -- in that class.

Before the awards were com pleted the group left the Horseshoe and walked to' a rally on the Russell House patio. After that they walked orderly to the press conference held at the Sheraton Inn. About 150 of them crowded into the small room where the press conference was to be held. They lined the walls facing the speaker's platform, many of them sitting on the floor or standing under the television cameras that were there to record the press conference. Ralph Matley, manager of the Sheraton, asked the people to leave. "This room has been rented for a private 'party." he said, "there are just too many of you for this room." Several members of the crowd responded to Matley's requests with "Move the press conference" and "We aren't moving." Matley then began "If it takes all of you to present your problem," and was interrupted with shouts of "It does." Matley left the platform as the students began a cadanced clapping that lasted for about 15 seconds. Matley had at first attempted to remove the crosses that one student had placed behind, the speaker's platform. The crosses bore the names of the four students who were killed during a distur bance at Kent State University Monday. Following Matley's attempts to get the crowd to leave, five students mounted the platform. They were identified as appointed spokesmen 9f the group. Tony Harnion, one of the' flVe, said that the students were asking the USC declare a day of mouning of "these murdered students," referring to the four students who were killed at Kent State. Jeanie Hardee, another of the five students on the platform, read a petition which had been sent to the Board of Trustees. The students said they would present it to the Board of Trustees.

He said he stressed using new topics with strong imagery. "A poet is a mechanic that can work with sound, but not exactly rhyme. I want sense imagery through the use of concrete detnil," Gautreauz said. tnned for freedom The petition called for: " ---unqualified support of academic freedom at USC, which means freedom to teach, to learn, and to hold and express beliefs without fear of repression or harrassment by political forces, and "---unqualified support of the freedom of association and peaceful assembly at the University, including feedom from police or political interference and without police or political restrictions on the use of the Russell House or other public University buildings." Paul Gumm, another of the students on the platform then spoke to the crowd, which was applauding every speaker. "While we're talking about sports events there is a war going on and there are people, being killed." Gumm said. Dan Foster, sports editor of the Greenville News, who was at the conference to cover the statement on USC' ACC membership, asked the group, "Why don't you call your own press conference?" One of the students replied, "We want to get together and talk to the Board of Trustees, but where is the Board of Trustees? This is the best thing we can get," she added. Gumm then asked the crowd if they would be willing to go outside and let the press conference take place. A number of persons in the crowd shouted "No, no." Gumm then said, "Let's put it'to a vote." Again the crowd shouted, "No" At that point someone in the baVk of the room shouted, "The ACC people are outside. Let them come in and have their press con ference." The crowd formed a neat isle bet ween the door and the speaker's platform, however no one ap peared at the door. At that point the press conference was 20 minutes late. After another 20 minutes, 'University President Thomas F. . Jones walked up the isle of students from the rear of the room, stepped onto the platfrom and read the Board of Trustees statement concerning ACC membership. At the conclusion of the statement Jones stepped off the plattorm, walked back up the isle accompanied by two policemen, got into a car with the policemen and the car left. The students filed out or the room and left also. BONUS Carolina camera shop 1405 Moin Street, Columbio,S.C.

Und MAsi Two June July Mus June June For 1970 Sunnmeh Seaelon brochure Director of Admisseions, Mnhttanvi Teacher el termed a. By DAN E. HARMON Staff Writer The goal of last week's teacher evaluation was "fairly well reached," although the number of students conducting the survey was fewer than hoped for, ac cording to Carlton Larmon, Student Government secretary of academic affairs. "On the wfiole it definitely could have been better," Larmon said. The rescheduling of student elections caused many of the distributors to drop out of the survey in order to campaign. The survey conducted in the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Education was designed to help faculty members evaluate their teaching and help students decide what courses to take and what professors they would prdbably like best. The results will be published in Sep tember according to Larmon. Larmon said that "overall, the tests had been well received," and described the faculty as "very cooperative." Several faculty members gave their views on the survey. "I thought it was fair," Dr. Thomas L. Connelly of the history department said . "I thought it was better than some others that I've seen." Connelly commented that the evaluator could possibly get some slanted answers from students, and cited as an extreme case one in which a teacher had given a very hard test the day before.
