following recommendations to the Senate:

1. That the Department of English be authorized to offer work
leading to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.

2. That the amount of residence allowed for part-time graduate
work be limited, except for graduate assistants and nart«time instruc-
tors, to not more than six weeks in any one semester ofi'summer session."

A student committee on reorganization of student government, with Mr. Sid
Buckley as chairman, presented to the University Senate the following com-
munication and proposed constitution of the Student Government Association
of the University of Kentucky:

"Dear Member of the University Senate:

Enclosed you will notice a copy of the proposed Constitution of
the Student Government Association.

This constitution, not yet fully completed, is the result of two
month's hard work on the part of thirteen conscientious members of
the student body, who were elected to this job by more than 150 stun
dents in attendance at the first YM-YW Forum this year. Each point
of the Constitution has been thoroughly discussed by the entire group.
Many members of the faculty have approved the plan.

Please realize that this printed form, which we are sending to
all members of the University Senate and to all students, is not yet
complete. President McVey has indicated that he will appoint a com“
mittee from the Senate on May 8 to meet with the student group and
complete minor points of contention.

We sincerely ask you to study the enclosed plan thoroughly be“
fore the Senate meeting. We beg you to be liberal in your decision
concerning its acceptance, realizing that it is a much more unified
and effective form of student government than now exists.

The students will ratify this Constitution at a mass meeting in
the Alumni gym at 7 p.m. on Thursday. May 4. You are cordially in~
vited to attend. Please do us the favor of announcing this convoca~
tion in all your classes Wednesday and Thursday. If your class

Minutes of the University Senate ” May 9, 1939

The Senate voted that the above communication from the student committee,
both in the form of the petition and the constitution, be received and re-
ferred to a Senate committee for consideration, the committee to report at
the next meeting of the Senate. The Committee is as follows: Professors
Horlacher, Tucker, Dupre, Moreland, Tolman, Jones, and Blanding. On motion
by Dean Blending, the Senate also voted that the following statement should
be sent to the student committee: "That the University Senate is glad to
receive the petition and the accompanying constitution, and wishes to ex-
press to the students its appreciation, good wishes, and congratulations

on their foresight in preparing the document." The Secretary Was instrucr
ted to submit a copy of this action to the student chairman.

The following communication was read to the Senate by Miss Ruth
Johnston, representing a group of students and faculty members:

“A Communication to the Senate:

On Saturday, April 22nd, a group of 35 students, faculty and
staff members agreed to meet for a solid afternoon's conference on cam“
pus problems.

The conversations were concentrated in three areas: (1) faculty-
student relationships; (2) student moral attitudes, especially as re~
flected in the matter of classroom dishonestyf and (3) campus democracy.
Darticularly, in Student Government.

The conference was designed to promote mutual understanding rath-

er than to consider proposed plans for action. Nevertheless, a few
specific proposals for future consideration emerged in the following
form:

First, it was generally agreed that through such meetings of minds
as occurred on April 22nd much might be accomnlished in clarifying the
aims of education, in raising the level of student and faculty achieve-
ment, and in threshing out the advantages and disadvantages of propos—
als for specific reforms. For these reasons it is planned to continue
next fall with similar conferences whereby numerous teachers and stur
dents can freely exchange their opinions on matters of vital interest
to the whole University.

Secondly, the conference considered the possibility of a joint
committee, advisory in nature, composed of faculty and students, selec~
ted in a representative manner, which should deliberate on numerous
problems of general concern, such as student discipline, student hous-
ing, extra-curricular activities, etc., and make recommendations to
the proper authorities.

And thirdly, it was suggested that an account of the conference
be transmitted to the Senate for information and a Committee was appoint-
ed to formulate such an account.

In accordance now with the third proposal and with President McVey‘s
consent, there follows a statement of some opinions expressed at this
conference which we believe the Senate will be interested in. Some of

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Minutes of the University Senate - May 9, 1939

these opinions received strong sunuort from those assembled, others
were disnuted, and none were put to a formal vote as expressing the
opinion of all or even a majority. We believe that they were all
sincere and based upon direct nersonal observation rather than hear~
say.

1. The intellectual and scholastic level of the University of
Kentucky is relatively low when comnared with the best universities
in the south and north. We are among the schools strong on social
life, where extrarcurricular activities comnete too successfully
with curricular activities. Many students do not really come here
to get an education; they are not converted to it after they come,
andfithey_f;;;uently succeed even in graduating Eithgut it. This sit-
uation might be corrected either by raising admission standards or
graduation reouirements; or by eliminating more thoroughly the incom~
netent and disinterested; or by curtailing the attractions of extra~
curricular activities; or, finally, by a greater faculty emohasis
upon the importance of scholarship in education.

2. There is a disquieting amount of inefficient and ineffec-
tive teaching at the University of Kentucky, resulting in student
apathy and resentment. Extreme instances of teaching faults annear
to be the following:

a. Abusive and humiliating treatment of students for fail*
ure to study, for the display of stuuidity, or for over—aggres-
siveness.

b. The use of excessive ridicule. sarcasm or other fear-
inducing devices to stimulate student performance. '

0. Lack of interest in one’s subject and failure to keep
informed and un-to—date in one's course material.

d. Using textbooks in unper~division courses designed for
secondary school students.

e. Indifference to student achievemente

f. Occasional public discrimination against students on
grounds of race, social status or personal dislike.

3. There is an excessive amount of dishonesty among University
of Kentucky students especially in the form of classroom cheating.
And, what is worse, student oninion tolerates it. Some feel that
among a minority it is even approved and encouraged. Numerous fresh-
men are known to have been nositively shocked to discover how prevar
lent the nractice is in certain courses on the camuus.

While much of this could probably be corrected by such external
controls as closer observation by the teacher, by more severe discip-
linary action, or by modifications in the tyne or procedure of exam-
inations, it was felt that a more desirable way to eliminate it would
be to stimulate through well-nlanned student conferences and wise

faculty counsel. a sense of houor and responsibility now lacking in
the student body as a whole.

4. Excessive student dishonesty, if it exists, is one of sever-
al indications of a faulty faculty-student relationship. The Univer-

appears to resemble in content Education
119, Foundations of Elementary Education
(3), but since the latter course is in
effect quiescent and will not likely be
taught so long as the College of Education
offers a tworyear curriculum, the Commit-
tee believes that the problem of possible
dunlication is not a serious one and can
justifiably be postnoned.)
