S A MUIRS \ SIMPLE WAV This business of student dem onstrations is getting to be an extreme nuisance arid there is a simple way ‘o handle it: dis charge any faculty member tak ing part in such riots and expel any student who marches to “protest” something he doesn't know a hill of beans about to begin with. So what if 400 or so students are expelled from the Univer sity of South Carolina? What is 400 out of some 12,000—es pecially when it is claimed ’hat students are crying to get into college and there’s no room? If the rabble-rouser students, and their ignorant faculty leaders hiding behind the guise of academic freedom, were sent packing, it would give the ma jority—those students who really want an education—a much better chance. It seems to have gotten to the point where every univers ity and college president is scared of the term "academic freedom." Try to discipline an errant professor, and the ex alted liberalists of the Am erican Association of Univer sity Professors immediately start- screaming ’hat some one’s “academic freedom” is being violated. I'm quite sure ;f an AAUP professor derided to rape a co-ed, the AAUP would (daim that lie was -amp ly exercising his academic free dom. It's gotten to the point that about the only University Uft where one could send a .-on or daughter with any a. -mamv he will get an education, not a brainwashing, is Bob Jones University. The latest fiascos at the Un iversity of South Carolina and at P. C \ are getting too close to home.
