returned and brought with her Dr. John C.
Guilds, the vice-provost of the University, who&
listened to gripes and took note of them. Then he
discussed solutions with students.
But still, students don't come, and we need
student participation if this program is to work.
Of course, there are those who have afternoon
classes, which conflict with the Commons Room
schedule.
- But there is much education to be had in that
little room. ARA Slater supplies coffee (don't
knock Slater coffee--some day you, too, may be
old and weak.) And those who do get in on the
sessions often come away with a feeling of ac
complishment--because they were given the
opportunity to gripe to their dean or a professor
or Dr. Jones, or to learn, or lust to talk.
But let's get down there and "rap." Friday a
series of visits by various law enforcement of
ficials began. The visitors will include
representatives of campus police, State Law
Enforcement Division, city police, county
Sheriff's office, state Highway Patrol and
National Guard.
