Friday, August 6, 1943 CHURCH PAGE N \ The Chronicle takes this opportunity to express its appre- | ciation to the business linns and line citizens of Camden who have made the church pane, beninninn with this issue, possible. It is not remiss that in these troubled times we turn to Christianity as the only solution to the perplexing problems confronting the bewildered peoples of an unhappy world. DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE As stated in last week's issue of the Chronicle, we are publishing in this issue the complete report that resulted from an investigation of Winthrop College made by the American Association of College professors. This report was made in f 19 12 and was published in the April, 1942,-issue of the IH'FliKTlN, the off'iciaPorgan of that society. This report has been copied exactly as it appeared in the RCLldTlTN and no alterations nor omissions have been made. In order that sonic of our readers will understand this text we will explain here that: *(1) The troubles at Winthrop were brought to a head by the dismissal of several teachers from the faculty, apparently without rhyme or reason. Two of these teachers that were tired were members of the American Association of College Professors and thus this society made the investigation to determine the causes or charges that were made against their members. (2) 'In making the investigation they found this practice to be one that had existed over a long period of time at Winthrop. and that numerous teachers had been given the "pink slip" for no reason?other than internal and external politics. They found, at the same time, other conditions existing at the college that should not exist ( or be allowed) in a well ordered educational institution. W hen these tilings vvro made known, other investigations followed and resulted in Winthrop s loss of rating in various educational associations; also expulsion from some of these bodies. ( ">) The conditions set forth in this report have not yet been corrected, alter almost two years, and the fate and rating of the college are .still hanging in the balance. Thus, we are bringing the whole report, just as it was made, to tiie atti nto-n of tie- people of South Carolina. Those who are interested in the w i 1.; 11' e i 'i I the State College 1 o r women are urgently requested to read this text in it-- entirety. It w ,!
