Cierly, the committee chairman,
on April 17. Dr. Eddington charged the Administration with hiding behind a defense they call
procedure.
The confusion in the case
centers around a procedural requirement that "The faculty
member should address a statement to the chairman of the committee setting forth in detail the
reasons why he believes his privilege has been abused."
According to Dr. Cierly, no
formal list of charges and allegations had been submitted
by Dr. Eddington.
"Not only have I written a
letter, but a complete AAUP file
has been given to the committee,"
Dr. Eddington charges.
"Committee A has more than

An experience in living is how

simply likes to travel.
One of the leaders of the
group, Jim Cleason, junior in
special education, feels this year's
project will go smoother than
before. "The people are more
used to American students,"
Gleason said. He added that
this year's group also knows
each other much better.
Gleason, having spent last
summer in Ecuador, is not as
worried about language or social
problems as many of the first
timers. "I feel like I know enough
of the Latin culture not to get
in trouble," he said.

The music is done separately
and is not involved in the choreography, "we dance with the
music not to it." It is only
that they coexist in time. As one
of his dancers put it "both the
music and the dance are here at
8:30 and so for that reason they'll
be done together."
Mr. Cunningham felt that one
would get confused if he tried
to understand each part of the
dance. "Life itself," he said, "is
not like that anymore, everything
no longer fits in a certain place.
To enjoy this type of dance
one must not worry about ust
bring their whole selves to it
it-j-

and put their facilities into play."
The Cunningham dancers are
trained to have bodies that are
"flexible, strong, and responsive." There are eight dancers
other than Cunningham himself.
Each is a unique individual and
all have different backgrounds.
One began as a tap dancer while
another began in ballet. Their
time with the company ranges
