SARA COFFENBERRY
Barometer Writer
Newly appointed President of the University, Dr. Robert MacVicar, scoffed at the Idea that a university official should expect to
be treated with deference and politeness at all times.
MacVicar was asked Friday to comment on many of the social
Issues which have erupted on American coUege campuses during the
6Os.
"I must say I expect to be verbally assaulted rather periodically because I think that's part of the tempo of our times," he
commented coneerning the assault of university officials.
The Carbondale, Illinois campus at which MacVicar is Chancellor
has an estimated black populatinn of eight percent.
"We have, using black students and members ot w faculty
who are both black and from other races well, attempted to put
together a Black American Studies program and create a Black
American Studies Center."
The purpose of the program, according to MacVicar, Is not only
to give the black students a feeling of idenbty, and a center in
which to study their racial contributions to American society, but
also to give students of all races the opportunity to "understand
the truly polyculturai character of American society."
MacVicar felt that athletics at the university level were Important both from the standpoint of undergraduate spirit and a
communications link with the public.
"The alumnae who have left the university, the public that
support!i It, can understand and participate in the athietic program
In a way that they find very difficult in some of the other things
the university is dolng" he said.
But he felt that athletics "need to be constantly under scrutiny
to be sure that it is truly serving the institution."
"The decisions which affect intercollegiate athletics . . ought
to be made within the institution and not external to It," MacVicar
said.
MacVicar returned to Illinois Friday afternoon to attend a
meeting on the banks of a lake as part of the national teach-In on
environmental awareness.
The meeting was set up "to bring together on one of the outdoor research facilities of the (Southern Illinois) University, a group
of about 75 people, to try to focus In cm bow the university can better
organIze itself to deal with the solution of seine of our environmental
deterioration problems" he said.

'Sports Are Color.Blind'
Pressure On Black Athletes
Viewed In Sunday Panel Talk
CLAUDiA MCKINNON
and MARY KAY PIERCE
Barom.fer Writers
WHAT DOES A BLACK ATHLETE
CONTRIBUTE TO SPORTS?
Four Oregon State University coaches,
a black athlete And a University of Oregon

question in a panel Sunday night at St.
Mary's ?arish.
Part of a
for Black Heritage
Month, the panel viewed various aspects
of the role the black athlete plays today
series
in the sports world.
Paul Valenti, head baskethall coach, said
he has had "great experiences with my
black athletes. Their contribution to sports
is not only physical. It Is present in their
personality, friendliness, and often happy-go-
lucky attitude." ValenU concluded saying,
"Everyone needs to have more appreciation
for his fellow man, whether it be black
for black, white for black, or white for
white"
Gene Hilliard, football coach, presented
his views on what athletics have done for
the black athlete. "Besides discipline on
the athletic field, which helps to make the
athlete a more well-rounded person, they
are learning to acceTt criticism and still
do the very best possible job. Also, financial
gains have been tremendous. It has given
young people something to look forward
to. If an athlete is willing to work diligently,
he can really go somewhere, I can offer
my
eriences."
Later, Hilliard made a plea stressing
the importance of treatin5 athletes as individuals. "People are people and we're
not going to solve problems today until
we treat minorities as people."
"Sports are color blind," stated Bernie
Wagner, OSU track coach, relating the black
athlete to the track program. "They will
help most participants by fulfilling the need
for achievement and recognition, black or
white."
Wagner admitted finding it hard to sort
aspects for the black alone, stating, "People
will be recognized for their ability arid
participation - not for their color or race."
However, blacks do make e x c e II e n t

Lack of recruiting time was -cited by

amount of time his main area of recruiting

The idea of not making unified decisions,

In addition, the introduction to the domands slates "we feel that alt major decisions affecting the progress and continued

"We need more autonomy which we don't

Egan commetiteol that the committee Is
eager to tee that the program has certainty
and makes sense. "The director should have
sufficient room within which he can operate,"
Egan commented on the question of administrative control en the director.
"The procedures nf the office should be
concerned with the students and not with the
rules," Egas added.
The minority students presented six demands in their statement. One demand asks
that the administration vest control of the
office of Minority Special Services Program
In the director of the program. The slatement demands that the director of the
OMSSP be required to report only to the
president on the progress, anticipation, and

understand that we are not acting against
their education
The student demands further request that
all aspects such so hiring, firing, recruitment, control of alt minority money and alt
other OMSSP administrative business be under the direct control of the director and his
office staff.
Ititrris commented that he would like to
have more control over his office's mosey.

get out of the Business Office which Is gone,
Egan said.
As additional $14,000 in volunteer fonds is
also administered through the OMSSP office.
About soo,uoo is available through the Finan-
cial Aids Office.
One of the complaints voiced by minority
students was that "some of the minority
students -have been accepted at OSU under
the program and when they arrived they dis-
covered that no funds were available for
them."
Egan, "nobody admitted
to the program's lack of funds," He cited
miscommunicatioo as a possible source of
According to
the
misunderstanding of funds available.
Ifarris ruled that he haz "no rtght to hire
or fire." Ho commented that he needed this
power within the bonnets of administrative
approval.
With its emphasis on the need for adoqusle funding, one of the demands asks that
the university "be made responsible for seeing that the OMSSP's budget be met thrvugh
a strong, honest and sincere commitment to
explore and utilize all financial channels
available; alt monies pertaining to the office
and students of the OMSSP be under strict
control of the Director of the program."
Along the same lines, the demands ask
that "if the OMSSP grant proposal, which
was submitted to the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare, fails to materialize,
then the University wilt fund the program as
indicated in the proposed budget.
A fifth demand is directed to the reappointment of Harris as director of the program. II demands that Harris he reappointed
for the up-coming year. Harris reported that
he has been reappointed,
Tho demands further demand that all
rth. pi-aposats be "immediately mado into
administrative
policy."
In the introduction to their demands the
minority students wrote. "unless there is conslant contact, continuous communication
and an understanding of minority stsidosts
and their special situations, these students'
problems simply. cannot be snderstoed, nor
dealt with effectively."
The introduction continues that "the
success of students under this program for
the past academic year leaves a tot to be
desired." The introduction indicates that the
tack of funds causes a lack in a sufficient
number of full time tutors and counsetors
for the number of minority students within
the program,

So Carl started pyachiatric therapy and spent

Hneve'r, he feels the time and money he spent
was a corniplete waste. This past July he decided
to 'come out of the closet" and recongize his

There are many places in Portland, he said.

Some of the bars feature male go-go dancers,

Not all homosexuals are strictly maleoriented. Carl has had sexual relations with
women as well as men.
"It's easy to fall in love with a woman," he
explained. "There's just no physical attraction."
He went on, 'Many women, not out for the sex

Blacks ask policy change
By BRUCE STULTENBERG
An end of athletic competion with
Brigham Young University's wrestling
exchanges with South Africa and Black
studies programs were discussed in a
Black Student Union meeting with
President Robert Mac Vicar.
All whites except for President
MacVicar, Dean of Students Robert
Chick, and representatives of the press
were excluded from the BSU meeting in
room 211 of the MU Wednesday Thirty
five Blacks attended.
President MacVicar was asked to
answer questions, particularly about
OSU's relationships with Brigham
Young University, and was Interrupted
repeatedly during his comments.
BYU's alleged racist policies have
been the target of Black protest
in
recent years.
President Jeff Brooks of the BSU
asked MacVicar to use his power to halt
athletic competition with BYU
MacVicar pointed ouLthat OSU has
contracts for future football, basketball
and wrestling competition with
Brigham Young. Presently the
University of Washington is trying to
break similar cqntracts with BYU in
court, arid MacVicar said his future
decisions would be based on the outtome of that case.
Brooks suggested that often the
courtS1Troo slow. He asked how OSU
or MacVicar could in good conscience
cooperate with a racist institution.
President MacVicar pointed out that
a federal i*nel had investigated BYU
and found no evidenoe of overt
discrimination in the educational in-
stitution.
Several Black students, asswning the
racist nature of the Mormon church,
asked how the Mormon church could be
separated from Brigham Young. which
is owned and operated by thai church.
MacVicar pointed out the findings
the federal panel and concluded, '1
will not Lake action to break contracts
that were made years ago with an in-
stitution that has been found in compliance with the Civil Itighis Act of
1964"
Throughout the meeting MacVicar
sought to separate his
official
and
personal views.
'Personally," he said, "The Idea of
tying together race and status is not
what I believe in and, I would hope,
could be eliminated from our society."
One of the students asked MacVicar
how a man in his position could keep
official and personal feelings separate.
MacVicar had difficulty explaining.
Wrestling exchanges between Oregon
tugh school wrestlers coached by OSU
coach Dale Thomas and the Union of
South Africa were the object of further
BSU complaint
Brooks suggested that Thomas'
actwmIell under the moral requirement
and faculty conduct code. He asked
MacVicar to take action aga inst
Thomas.
MacVicar pointed ou that Thou nas'
exchange program was outside of his
responsibility to OSIJ.
Brooks claimed that because of
Thomas' association with OSU, the
University was unavoidably tied to the
exchange program. MacVicar agreed.
Brooks asked MacVicar fi he WI DU1d
support a Black studies program, B lack
studies major and recruitment
of
Blacks to instruct Black studies.
MacVicar said he would sup port
Black studies programs appropriat e to
OSIJ's situation, but not a Black studies
major.
He said he would support recruitment
of Black as well as other minority group
professors to teach, not only Black
studies, but other courses.
Mac Vicar said, "1 do not believe that
Blacks are the cmly ones
teach Black studies."

Chicano students have scheduled an
informative panel discussion on
Monday, Nov. 30, in an effort to
icquaint people on campus with the
problems of Chicanos.
Set for 7 pm. in Withycornbe
auditorium, the panel will feature
University President Robert MacVicar.
Other panel members will be Frank
Martinez and Pablo Cirrio of the Valley
Migrant League, Gilbert Anzaldula of
the state department, and Ramon
Chacon, assistant director of the
muiorites affairs program on campus.
Students, faculty, and all interested
rson.s are urged to attend.
Dicusson will center around
problems of the university relating to
minorities, problems In recruitinof
minority students, and problems
Chicanos in getting an education.
"if we start realizing the problems
the institution has in helpEng us
Chicanos and if they (the University)
start looking at problems from our
point of view, we may be able to more
efficientiy solve these problems," said
Cans Martinez, president of the
newly-formed Chicano Student UnIon.
The goal of the Chicano Student
Union is to recruit more Chicano
students to OSU and to draw the at.

OSU, Martinez explained.
.
Chicano students hold panel
A panel discussion was held last night
to the recently formed Chicano Student
Union to acquaint people on campus
ith the problems of Chicanos.
The discussion, held at Withycombe
auditorium, centered around problems
4 the university relating to minorities.
problems in recruiting minority
students, and problems with Chicanos
in getting an education.
Participating in the panel were
University President Robert MacVicar.
Ramon Chacon, assistant director of
the minority affairs program
on
(ampus, and Frank Martuwi and Pablo
Uiddio of the Valley Migrant League.
Peter Garcia, advisor of the Chicano
Student Union. was moderator for the
event. He expressed a great pleasure in
being able to work with the Chicano
students on campus, and he is glad they
are showing a concern for themselves
by forming this organization,
The
first speaker was Ramon
Chacon. who has the job of recruiting
Chicanos in Oregon Icr Oregon State
University. "Oregon is quite far behind
in recruiting Chicano students." according to Chacon. He has seen difin cooperating pith ad-
ficulties
ministrators and counselors. The
minority affairs program is concerned
with guiding and counseling student.s.
Also, there is a problem keeping
continuous contact with students.
Complete cooperation is essential with
high schools in getting transcripts sent
to OSU and forms filled out. Many
times forms "turn off a lot of people,'
sass Chacon.
Students are recruited from the
Willaniette Valley and eastern Oregon
('bacon feels the State System at Higher
F:du'a tion has failed to inform people of
minority opportunities.
The assistant director of minority
affairs feels that the community is
becoming aware of Chicano problems
and. 'Things are beginning to happen."
Also, that the Chicano is becoming
more involved in education, a
profession, and bettering himself. "My
job has become easier now that there
are people willing to work with us,"
said Chacon
President MacVicar stated that there
are two major problems dealing with
minority affairs connected to high
education. One, the linanctal resources
are limited individually where
educational and basic needs are conc'erned, such as meals, housing, and
books.
The President said that funds have
been limited in the last several years."
He sees no prospects iii the immediate
future in getting increased monies.
Secondly, will the minority student
find what he wants at Oregon State. His
education has often beel in1rupted,
and English has always been a problem
in educating the Chicano.
As to the Chicano students at CU,
President MacVicat said that, "I am
not going to make promises, but those
who do a satisfactory academically,
will have first call on resources that we
have."
Pablo Ciddio and Frand Marthsex
spoke about the use at former Adair Air
11orce Base as place for the poor. With
the large amount of poor in the cix'
vallis area. "It's a matter of who wants
to decide to take a step" in putting
resources together to have a better for
the ('tiicano and the minority people.
