a good rule of thumb here is,

recent cheating scandal there,
casing it indicated an increased
quality in educational standards.
He added that evidence that
students were cheating indicated
Miami was losing its image as
'Suntan U" and was upping its
academic quality.
Contained within his statements is the innuendo that cheating
is an accepted correlate to high
pressure academicsan attitude we
feel is far too widespread.
This University, for example.
Las no clearcut policy on cheating.
It seemingly prefers to pretend that
nothing so "ungentlemanly would
occur on this campus.
Yet nationwide surveys have
shown that up to fifty percent
cf all college students admit to
cheating sometime during their
college career. It would take a
rather naive UK student not to

material available to aid students
in courses.
Yet the University has outlined

individual professors, or through
the Student Congress Judiciary
Board. It is hard to believe that
with so many different agencies

offenders are judged on the same
scale.
Cheating is an
undercurrent in the modern multiversity, but it is not one which
must be tolerated with a blind
eye. UK cannot continue considering it as a phenomena so rare
that it deserves no special regulation governing it in the wealth
of University regulations.
We think the University must
admit that cheating is a large scale
problem and at least must set forth
some guidelines for treatment of
those who are involved in its
various forms.

standards for vehicles and uniform
requirements for drivers.
The association suggests that
three basic safetv devices be installed in everv car: shoulder harnesses, doors that will not open in
a crash, and collapsible steering
posts. We would add the further
suggestion that highway police
make spot checks to determine
w hether a driv er and his
passengers
are using their seat belts and
once available their shoulder harnesses; failure to use them should
count as "driving so as to endanger."
Rigorous regulations
against drunken driving have
proved successful in Sweden; why
not adapt them to the United
States?

The religion or irrcligion
of today's college student is an
issue of'major concern to campus
ministers, administrators, interested laymen and scholars, and
student t. Many magazine

subject, thousands of sermons

in searching

relation of the college student
to his religion.
The question remains unanswered today for the UK student and for those concerned with
the UK student, but it is still
asked: What is the role of
religion in the life of the student?

"Many people who react
violently to the institutionalized
church may indeed be very
religious," Mr. Boyd said in the
Mademoiselle Interview.
A national survey by Time
magazine in 1952 revealed "No
appreciable number of defections" and said those which do
occur "result from weak background prior to college than from
campus living and experiences."

Nietzsche has said, "Cod is

But w riter Michael Novak says
(Harper's, October, 1960), "Western Humanism is dead. Men do
not wander under the silent stars,
listen to the wind, learn to know
themselves, question 'Where am

'leave aside the mysteries of contingency and transitoriness for
the certainties of research, production, consumption. So that
it is nearly possible to say, 'Man

"God, if there is a God, is
not dead," Mr. Novak said. "He
will come back to the colleges
when man comes back."

LBJ -Tries Internal Peace Move In Vietnam

WASHINGTON Alarmed
by the failure of successive "pacification" programs in South
Vietnam, President Johnson has
ordered highest priority for a

new, highly selective approach
to this vital part of the war.
Instead of the
pacification efforts of the past, the
new plan will put cadres consisting of up to 85 Vietnamese
experts in political organization,
health, agriculture, and securityin a single village for as
long as a year.
The purpose: to convince the
rural population in areas newly
cleared of the Communist Viet
Cong by military action that
Saigon really cares about their
welfare. In Ambassador Henry
Cabot
Lodge's
descriptive
phrase, they should act as precinct workers.
To recruit them, the South
