Letters to the edito
'Political
Dear Miss Manning.
Re: John Gash's column of
September 23, 1970.
Recently the Board of Trustees
issued a statement which said that
the .University was a non-political
institution. For a non-political
institution, it is strange to note that
the only "liberal" organization
(AWARE) on campus has had its
charter suspended, and the leaders
of this organization and other
liberal students were suspended
from the school. Although I am not
qualified as a political science
expert, this action implies highly
political motives.
This "non-political" institution
has also "asked" the students to
sign a statement which says that
the only reason for our being on
campus is learning, and that does
not . include learning about the
chaotic state of our world. If by
some chance of fate we discover
the truth, God forbid that we
should do anything about it lest we
be damned by the Administration
and ousted away from-the
University.
Mr. Gash wrote that -the U S C
students seem to be apathetic.
Could it be that after last May the
administration has succeeded in
ridding the University of the
majority of the liberal students,
and the ones.left have been refused
the right to assemble?

Hearing committee.
Dear Miss Manning:
This past Friday the special
Hearing Committee of the Board of
Trustees held hearings for five
students who had been suspended
because of alleged activities
during last May's distrubances.
This committee was supposed to
have given them a fair hearing in
order to determine what
disciplinary action should be
taken, if any, for their activities
last May. This committee con
ducted what could aptly described
as a "Kangaroo Court". They

Electric and Gas C may's bus to
and from t Jaciou stops at the
.6rner of SurAtat and Gervas
Streets, just pouits Columbia
Hall. lberefore, an Friday and
Saturday nlgts especially, there
are large numbers ofsoldiers who
frequently harass the residents.
This is in direct violation of the
Code of Laws of the Sate of South
Carolina, which' prohibits such
acts.
COMPLICATIONS
Another of Columbia Hall's
problems is that it is a long way
from campus on a dark night-and
anyone walking to Columbia Hall
must pass several darkened, often
lonely areas, notably the yard of
Trinity Episcopal Church. In that
corner lot, any form of human or
sub-human could be waiting....
The problem at the SCM
residence hall is that it, too, is
some distance from campus. Also
it is next door to the local USO.
HATES HOUSE
At Bates House, the problem of
the residents is that there is a high
chance of getting robbed,
especially at night. Here, too, are
areas which afford good hiding
places, even though street lights
supply some illumination on the
Intramural Fields.
SUGGESTIONS
The solution to this threat to the
safety of students might be to step
up police patrols of such areas by
both city and campus police. And
in the case of Columbia Hall, civic
and University pressure is needed
on SCE&G to move the Fort
Jackson bus stop.
However, pressure should be
applied by the two groups
primarily responsible for the
safety of stuents: the University
administration and the state
General Assembly. There has been
too much idle talk and angry words
about the "rising crime rate" for
these two groups to igpore this real
problem.. Remember, responsible
Aroups btought attention to this
problem last year. This year may
mean action or stalling. But we
hope that the administration and
the legislature in this election year
will see ftodosmething about it.
