Living In Mid Campus Is Much Too Quiet

By CARL MODF.CKl
Kernel Staff Writer
Don't ask Art Travis or Press Whelan, "What's
old building In the middle of campus?"
tliijt
As residents of "that old building" they are
always quick to point out that it Is the Faculty Club.
' Travis an
Engineering sophomore, has lived
on the second floor of the club for a year. YVhrlan,
a graduate student in elementary education, has
lived there one semester.
They are two of six students who help serve
the noon meal at the club. None of the six receive pay, but all receive their noon meals free.
Both men admit that living in the middle of
ram pus has its advantages, but that it also has its
draw barks.
They are not bothered by noise as are students

in the dormitories but the extreme quiet at times
can make one hear things, they said.
Travis recalls that when he first moved into the
club every time a radiator made any noise he thought
someone was In the building.
Another disadvantage Is that they cannot run
down the hall and ask another student for help
with a difficult calculus problem.
When asked if working at the club helps him
get along with his professors, Travis said it has
shown him that "they are Just ordinary people and
that they aren't beasts as some students seem to
think."
However, Travis says he receives no favors from
the professors.
During the recent fire bug outbreak Travis
said the Faculty Club was one of the few wooden

Press Whelan, left, and Art Travis, students who live in the
Faculty Club, find that the middle of the campus is a quiet
place to study at night. But the extreme quiet sometimes makes
them "hear things."

He is survived by his wife, Mrs.

Empty Dorms
Many students have fumed and
fretted over the Dean of Men's Office's recent decision to begin comstudents to live
pelling
in the dormitories while we withheld comment to determine the facts
of the matter.
Students have argued that the
University made a grave error in
building the
Haggin Hall
when increases in enrollment did not
merit such a dormitory at this time.
Dean of Men L. L. Martin said
the large new residence hall was built
on the assumption that an anticipated
"war baby" rush of 150 male students
a year would quickly fill the dormitory. That this rush did not materialize is evident in the closing off of an
entire floor of Donovan Hall and a
section of Bowman Hall.
We come now to the question of
whether the University did indeed
err in deciding to go ahead with con- struction of Haggin. It seems that
the basic figures used in calculating
the average rate of expected enroll- ment increase were compiled by$
various state, regional, and national
boards of educators. These rates of
increase were expected to apply to all
American colleges and universities.

actual and one speculative.
Some areas of the state are now
in the throes of an economic recession which in a few areas is in reality
a depression. Many students from
such areas cannot afford to attend the
University.
The effect of the University's academic standards is believed to be
affecting its enrollment, also. To what
extent this factor has cut enrollment
has not been determined, but it is
safe to say that it has had a major
effect in causing students to go to
school elsewhere.
While these factors may have cut
male enrollment, female admissions
still continue to grow, as was witnessed by the conversion last fall
of a section of Bowman Hall to accommodate women and by the number of women applicants turned away
each fall.
Perhaps the real answer to the
problem lies in converting even more
sections of men's dormitories for occupancy by women. The empty sections in the two men's halls bear mute
evidence that present measures are
not doing the job.

very crucial problem confronting the American public is what
method can best be employed to seek
out and isolate subversives while not
infringing the traditional freedoms
of the society. The pusuit of this objective has led some men to use fear
and suspicion as weapons to whip
up an emotional froth of public opinion while neglecting the effect that
these aroused fears have on the substantive scope and use of freedom.
In this respect De Tocqueville was
essentially correct when he observed
that a tyranny of the majority was
a tyranny nonetheless.

Multiiiationality Desired

Though the desirability of United
Nations or multinational assistance
programs have been stressed by some
observers, one may conclude that
the Peace Corps will not encounter
much resistance overseas because of
any fear of United States "imperialism."

On the contrary, there is strong
support abroad for the Peace Corps,
according to Albertson. He and two
others visited 11 nations early this
year to gauge their response: Pakistan, India, Thailand, The Philippines,
Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Haiti, Nigeria, Gabon, and Ghana.
