Collins Announces
Classes Cancelled
In their first two games, the
Great Danes shot only 33% and
thus concentrated on ball control
and working for the good shoti
against Plattsburgh. The strategy
paid off as the hoopsters hit on
twenty-four of fifty-two shots.
Jack Duffy, who has been
seeing a lot of action this year
because of Scott Price's bad ankle
contributed eight points to the
team effort and was praised by
coach Doc Sauers for his fine
performance.

New Editors To Head ASP*
Enlightenment Their Goal
"We hope, through the ASP, to
c r e a t e an a t m o s p h e r e of
enlightenment and constructive
criticism which has not been
apparent previously."
So spoke ji|| paznik and Ira
Wolfman, who were elected
Co-Editors-In-Chief of the Albany
Student Press for next semester at
the last News Board meeting of
the Fall 1968 semester.
They were chosen to fill the
position after the resignation of
John Cromie, whose term will
expire at the end of this semester.
Looking forward to "a term of
challenges", the new Editors will
attempt "to make the ASP a
viable instrument of leadership en
this campus."
In the past the ASP has
concentrated on recording events.
"We want to remold it" stated the
Editors, "into an impetus for
forthcoming events.", thereby
concentrating on the future rather
than the past. A greater emphasis
will be placed on "analytic,
feature, and background stories."
"The need for an in-depth
knowledge and explanation of
issues pertinent to students today
is pressing. We hope to fill a void
that currently exists in this
area."
Miss Paznik has been a member
of the ASP staff since the Fall of
1966. She has served in the
capacities of staff reportor , news
editor, and managing editor. She
is a junior, Political Science major
from Merrick, Long Island.
Wolfman, a sophomore Political
Science major from Rosedale,
Queens, has been a member of the
ASP staff since January 1968. He
has served in the capacities of
staff reporter, associate news
editor, and news editor this term.
Elected to fill tha position of
News Editor was Tim Keeley.
Carol Schour will continue in her
capacity as Arts Editor. Gary Gelt
has been tlooted to the position of
Features Editor, Sports Editor for
Spring '69 will be Jim Winslow.
Keeley has been on the ASP

Miss Schour continuing as Arts
Editor, is a sophomore from
Rockville Centre, Long Island.
Winslow, a junior Political Science
ma jor from Kingston will be
advancing from his position of
Assistant Sports Editor.
Gelt, a sophomore English
major from North Bellmore, Long
Island, has previously served the
ASP in the capacity of Arts
Editor. He is the first Features
Editor on the ASP staff in over a
year.
Keeley chose as his Associate
News Editor Kathy Huseman, a
sophomore transfer student from
the State University College at

"We will close classes at noon
Wednesday," President Evan R.
Collins announced to a full house
at The President's Conference
with Students yesterday.
Students packed the Patn.-on
Lounge as Collins explained that
the illness rate was remaining the
same and beginning to affect the
staff.
"In the interest of the health
and welfare of the students we
made the decision at noon
today," Collins remarked.
Dr. Clifton
C. Thorne,
Vice President
for Student
Affairs, informed students that
the residence halls will remain
open until Friday. "However,
regular Food Service will not be
operating."
In addition, the Library will
remain open.
Collins also mentioned the
favorable action of the University
Council in regards to residence
policies and athletics.
Symposium
Planned
For April
The
Faculty-Student
Committee for Equal Opportunity
is p r e p a r i n g plans for its
symposium
entitled
"Confrontation Politics." The
symposium is planned for April.
The work for the symposium is
supported
by O. William
Perlmutter, Dean of the College of
Arts ar.d Science. Interact, Forum
of Politics and the Freedom
Center are working along with the
Committee.
Under the main topic of
"Confrontation Politics" will be
three sub-topics: Black versus
White, Poor versus Rich, and
Student versus University.
Any individual or group
interested in working the the
Committee is invited to come to
the next meeting on Wed., Jan. 8,
at
8:00
in HU
290.
In answer to a question of
a uthority, Collins noted the
legality of the University Council.
Under a piovision of the
Education Act the president is
responsible to the University
Council which is in turn
responsible to the Board of
T r u s t e e s which is in turn
responsible to the legislature and
the taxpayers.
A memorandum
from
Chancellor Gould was also
presented by Collins which
elaborated on the increased room
rates for next year.
It was noted that the state
presently assumes about 30% of
the cost of each room. "The cost
of $550 compares favorably with
other colleges," Collins noted.
The cost of triples would be
$120 per year. This means that
when there are five men in a four
man suite the cost of the suite
not the cost of the actual room
goes down. "This has not been
the case in the past," Collins
remarked.
Thorne noted that several
things
are
taken
into
consideration for tripling. He
mentioned that the kind of
r o o m s and suite play a n
important part. "We may ask
students if they want to triple
when they apply for next year's
residence," Thorne commented.
In discussing the need for mure
off-campus
housing, Collins
stated that "We had a rail last
Monday evening from the
contractor saying that he was
bogged down with financing,
zoning, and other problems.
To compound the problem,
Collins noted that next week
5 0 0 - 6 0 0 s t u d e n t s may be
displaced if the Mall project
comes up into the area where
they arc now renting apartments.
In other business, a student
raised a complaint abouf'three
large dogs roaming in the Dutch
Quad dining hall and the snack
bar."
Collins came back with "This
campus was surely not designed
for dogs" which ended the
conference on a light note.

Petition Demands Pass-Fail
Proceedure Be Instituted
by Daryl Lynne Wager
Staff Reporter
In an attempt to show siudent
support of the long-debated
pass-fail system, a petition '• being
circulated among thr
mdent
b o d y t h a t would hopefully
initiate faculty support of the
proposal.
Loretta Meli, who is responsible
for starting the petition, reports
that student reaction to the
movement has been good. Most
students, according to Miss Meli,
are eager to sign the petition, and
many have volunteered to help
collect signatures.
The petition demands the
inauguration
of a pass-fail
procedure for a!l courses; grading
would be based on a system 01
satisfactory (S)and unsatisfactory
(U), thus eliminating the present
A, B, C, D, E.
Signers of the petition agree
that a pass-fail system would be
beneficial In that it would make
education "an active force."
Along with an increased desire to
learn, t h e s t u d e n t
would
experience minimal competition
and t h e stimulation of his
creativity.
Dick Collier, chairman of the
Academic Affairs Commission,
emphasizes the limiting effects
placed on the student under the
present system. He feels that the
average student is afraid to
experiment with his subject
matter. Collier believes that the
inception of pass-fail would bo the
best way to rid the University of
its old "Teachers' College" image,
at the same time encouraging
stimulation of thinking through
such flexibilities as independent
study.
Academic Affairs Commission,
of which Collier is chairman and
Miss Meli a member, has
considered the proposal and
decided to present as their
minimum demand the initiation
of pass-fail with the freshman
class of September, 1969. This
would set a piecedent for ail
subsequently entering classes;
therefore, all SUNYA students
would take all of their courses on
a pass-fail basis by September,
1972.
The rationale for this decision
stems from the Commission's
belief t h a t a c o m p r o m i s e
situation, whereby some classes
would be pass-fail and others not,
or one in which the student could
choose to take a particular course

"The Black Arts Movement is
radically opposed to any concept
of the artist that alienates him
from his community." This
statement by Larry Neal in "The
Drama Review" of New York
University refects a growing
attitude- in contemporary theatre
that a large portion of reality,
namely, the black community in
America, has been left out of
American arts for a long perieid of
time.
A group of students from the
black community at Albany State
University has been v;orking for
the past two months to change
that situation. Their production
of
Langston

"Tambourines to Glory" will be
presented next February 1 2 in the

black theatre production, because
he felt that there were "very few
plays on campus geared toward
black talent"; on campus, as in
the entire field of American
theatre, the black man has not
been given roles which he can
relate to. The Black Theatre
m o v e m e n t is essentially an
attempt to correct this problem of
white, middle-class dominance of
most American art forms, not by
"protest," but by a positive
expression of another culture,
totally different but just as real in
America.
Langston Hughes, who died in
1967 and is often called the "poet
laureate of the black man," wrote
prolifically on the subject of life
in Harlem; his "Tambourines to
Glory" is a tale of religious vision
and corruption
The twenty or so students
involved in the production
(including two whites who play
policemen) hav been devoting
upwards of ten hours a week from
their
schoolwork
since
mid-October in order to put
together
an
impressive
performance; although none of
the actors have ever been in plays
before, they are drawing from a
wide variety of other talents
(singing, m o d e l l i n g , public
speaking, dancing) to make
themselves effective in this first
effort, the lead players are Shirley
Cummings as Laura, Arlene Porter

One segment of this university has never
m a t u r e d through the stage of awkward
adolescence. Its potential to be useful in our
'academic community' has been ignored and
undeveloped during the transitional years of this
institution from college to university. The
potential can remain untapped, and the institution
can continue to turn out the standard State
University Product. Without the maturation of the
student body there shall be no real identifying
aspect to the Albany alumnus, no attachment, no
tradition, no sense of accomplishment, no feeling
of effectiveness. This void in our community is a
result of the relatively few powers tiie student is
able to exercise and the fewer policies he is able to
effect.
The student finds himself bound by two major
limitations that the system unnecessarily places
upon him. He finds little continuity within his
student organizations, and there is no unit from
which the individual can exert legal pressure on
other divisions within the University and obtain
the results of his convictions.
The student who aspires to become involved in
his government rarely if informed about the
system he wants to work in. The student who ends
his involvement seldom relates his discoveries
about the system to the incoming student, and if
he does, the new student it, not yet able to digest
the information relayed to him.
Consequently, over half of the students working
for their fellows do not know what they are doing;
they- are uninformed. The student must redo what
OUT TWE
DERD V
was done before and make many of the same
mistakes that his predecessors made. So involved is
the student in grasping for a solid base to act
upon, that he has too little time to accomplish
anything meaningful.
Not only does the student loader want to be
effective, but so does the individual student. The
student should have at his disposal a small unit to
which he owes some allegiance and within which
he can be effective. To be effective means that the
unit must have the power to confront,
meaningfully, the other units of student
organization, the Faculty, and the Administration.
Yet, whatever the student attempts is
meaningless because he has no influence that will
outlast him at the University. He has no sense of
permanency at this institution. What is needed is
an established organization on which the student
can depend on for advice. With a professional staff
working solely for him, the student can exert his
influence through the threat of persistence and not
through threats of violence and demonstrations,
which indicate the weakness of the normal
university organization.
The student body cannot effect this change
alone. They need an adrenalin from the Faculty
and the Administration. Only they are able to
finance the necessary staff that the students need
in order to run their government effectively, to
support the students in their quest for political
and social maturity, and to help the University
give the 'outside society' people who know how to
develop their potential within their surroundings.

Items that have been of obvious
value have been missing but more
important to the many employees

sentimental value are gone.
The secretaries here have
chipped in a few dollars each year
t o build up our Christmas
decorations. Well, some little gem
fixed that last night by stealing all
the decorations off the doors on
the third floor of the Social
Sciences building. In addition,
name plates have been missing
from the doors.
What good a faculty member's

stoop so low as to steal Christmas

To the Editor,
Since Sunday, Dec. 8, we have
been unable to live in our room in
Livingston Tower. We have moved
our mattresses into the other two
bedrooms in the suite and are now
sleeping and studying there. The
reason for this is that our room is
without
heat,
n o t Just
uncomfortably chilly-the radiator
is stone cold. The temperature Is

coated with ice. We have tried to
gut some action through normal
channels and have been told
everything from "the windows
need caulking" to "the pipes arc
frozen." Somehow we get the
impression we're supposed to fix
it ourselves.
We have now been advised that
the problem is incurable and that
we had better buy a baseboard
heater. There is no one now sick
in our suite, but we can't help but
feel that our days are numbered.
Perhaps this is one way to solve
the overcrowding problems in the
dormitories, by freezing us out.
Uut we s'ill have to live here for
the rest of the year, and that
means the rest of the winter.
There arc other suites in this
Tower with the same problem. We
find it oitremely difficult to exist
and to s t u d y under these
conditions. We also find them
totally unjustifiable. We are, in
short, thoroughly disgusted.

Q. Under Mayor Daley, do
Chicago citizens have problems?
A. None that they're allowed to
complain about.
Q. Why did George Romney,
governor
of
a
large,
influentialstate like Michigan, quit
his post for a low spot on the
Nixon team?
A. Romney feared that he
wouldn't be re-elected when his
term expires in 1970. He was
disliked for the poor job he wi'.s
doing in the fields of housing a..d
urban development.
Q. What should be done about
Eldridge Cleaver, who killed an
officer of the law?
A. They should let him go if he
says he's sorry.
Q. Nixon says that Agnew is
"cool under pressure." What do
you think?
A. I really can't say. But we all
know how he acts when the
pressure is off.

four years?
A. Yes, to the grave.
Q. Is the "new morality"
responsible for our nation's
problems?
A. Offhand, I'd say it was the
old immorality.
Q. You don't have any qualms
about having supported Nixon?
A. It's funny you ask (at least I
hope it will be). During the
campaign, like all my compadres,
I was chanting "Nixon's the one,
Nixon's the one!" Now after he's
been elected I aEk myself
"Nixon'x the one for what?"
Q. Now that Johnson is leaving
the White House, what can we
expect?
A. "Now that Johnson is
leaving the White House . . ."
Sounds good, doesn't it?
Q. Why don't you ever cut
down deGaulle?
A. He's doing a good enough
job of that for himself.
Q. Do you hate Jews?
A. Not anymore than I hate
anyone else.
Q. What is bureaucracy?
A. Bureaucracy is when you get
into an auto accident, and two
months later you receive a letter
telling you that you've suddenly
become too dangerous to drive.
Q. Should Nelson Rockefeller
be disappointed over not having
secured a cabinet post?
A. Of course not. Had he been
appointed, he wouldn't be able to
assure the citizens of New York
that he has no intention to run for
the presidency in 1972.

Taxes keep rising, and inflation
is shrinking the dollar. Part of the
reason lies with Congress.
In the affluent society on
Capitol Hill, $20,000-a-year jobs
are commonplace. There are close
to 500 of them, ranging from
$ 2 8 , 5 0 0 paid to the head
doorkeeper of the House—only
$1,500 less than a member of
Congress gets!
While Congress talked the liist
few years of whittling down the
Great Society programs, over-all
payroll costs have skyrocketed
8-1% in the House and 53% in the
Senate in the last six years.
Did you know that the House
postmaster with less than 100
million pieces of mail to deal with
yearly makes $500 more a year
than the postmaster 01 Chicago,
who is responsible for 6.6 billion
pieces of mail. And the Senate,
with less mail, pays its postmaster
$1,000 more than the postmaster
gets in Cleveland, where the mail
runs to t,8 bill::."! pieces.
Fed by nearly annual p«V
raises, protected by patronage and
all but screened from public view,
the fat salaries have spread a* ross
Capitol Hill.
How would you like to be the
Senate chaplain, who reads a brief
prayer to open each session, and
receive $15,800 a year. Or maybe
the House chaplain, who gtts only
$15,500.
If you're not a religious person,
maybe who would like to call or
record the roll, and make
$19,200. Or record debate and
make $22,000.
If you're not too bright, but
have good connections, you could
be a messenger for $10,000 or an
office worker for $12,000.
The beauty of these jobs,
besides the pay, are the hours.
Only four days a week, and only
when Congress meets (this
exel udes the members' own
staffs).
The legislative committees are a
major source of the $20,000 and
up jobs. There are 133 of them on
Senate committees, 79 on House
committees and 1 •! on joint
committees.
While each House member is
entitled to pay one staffer in his
office at the tup rate of $20,850,
only one out of lour actually do
so. In the Senate, which has
higher allowances, 109 aides get
more t.ian $20,000, If, addition,
the Senate itself has 25 top jobs,
such as secretary, parlimentarian
and sergent-at arms, paying more
than $20,000, and the House hits

As a final editorial comment, I think that coach Doc Sauersand the
rest of the Great Dane basketball squad desetve special praise for their
fine performance against a strong Buffalo squad this past Saturday.
The Danes turned what was easily their finest performance of the
year as they played an excellent ball game i.gainsl a much taller squad.
Although the Danes were much shorter than Buffalo, they were able to
hold their own under the boards with a superb diplay of hustle and
timeliness. In addition, the defense was able to prevent
Buffalo's
offense from moving towatd the basket where they would have been
able to make the most efficient use of their height advantage.
If the Danes continue lo play the way they did agrinst Buffalo they
will end the season with ; record perhaps not as impressive ;s last
year's, but surely well above .500.
Both Jack Duffy and Scott Price' contributed greatly to the team
effort as they combined to prevent the bif forecourt ol Buffalo from

The Albany Hoopsters didn't
seem to be intimidated in the least
by the rumors following the
Buffalo squad. The Great Danes
quickly went out and took a
17-11 lead midway through the
first half, but lost it by halftime.
Jack Adams, a 5-9 junior,
carried much of the early scoring
for Albany. He scored on driving
layups and several outside shots
and led the Albany scorers with
13 points.
Scott Price, whose injured
ankle has kept him from playing
up to his full potential this season,
showed no signs of his injury, as
he played his best game yet. He
did a fine job against his 6-9 rival
at center, considering the fact that
he was giving away seven inches.
Jack Jordan played a good
game scoring 12 points. He played
a tough defensive game swiping
several errant passes from Buffalo.
The big disappointment of the
night was Rick
Margison.
Margison who scored 21 and 28
points against Stony Brook and
Plattsburgh respectively, was off
in his shooting the entire night.
He scored only 11 points,
However, he was the big man on
defense for Albany.
Albany ran well with the ball
and several times forced Buffalo
to throw the ball away due to a
stiff pressing defense.
The closest Albany came in the
half was 54-51 . but

doing any real Lamage uncerncath the boards. Jack Jordan also
contributed a line effort on both the defensive and offensive boarc's. In
addition, Jim C'avcrly, Jack Adams and Rich Margisoil combined to
handle the direction of the team.
Although Margison Mas held lo oul) eleven points, he directed the
offense and turned a fire defensive performance against the opposing
Buffalo guard.
Again, a special note of praise to coach Sailers and his squad foi their
fine performance against a tough Buffalo squad.
For those basketball fans who will be in the area during the holdiays,
the Danes will be hosting their annual Holiday Tournament December
27-29 against St. Lawrence, Siena and Hamilton.
And so ends a semester of sports editing. In my final depaiting
statement I have but one word for friends and Iocs alike all over the

Required Credits Lowered
120 Needed For Graduation
by Gale McAllister,
Staff Reporter
T h e School of Arts and
Sciences has recently lowered the
number of credit hours needed to
graduate from 124 to 120.
This change is not retroactive
and becuase it does not go into
effect until July 11,1969, seniors
who plan to graduate in June of
1969 are not included in the
change.
However, seniors who wish to
graduate and have only 120
credits, but have met all other
requirements, may appeal their
cases t o the Undergraduate
Academic Counsel.
This Counsel will consider each
student's case individually, and
then decide whether the student
will graduate or not.
The reason given for lowering
the number of credit hours
Faculty Senate OK's
Afro-American Program
by Betty Anderson
"
On January 20, 1969, the Faculty Senate approved a Department
of Afro-American Studies. At the meeting of the Senate, President
Collins presented the history and events of the Afro-American
situation.
The new action is considered a further development of the
Afro-American program. In the past, courses in Africian history have
been offered and a program for 200 disadvantaged students was
begun. The EOP programs were organized and financed by last fall.
Two members of the faculty attended summer institutes to prepare
them to teach in the Afro-American Program. The two men along
with Dr. Liedel and Dr. Price have worked on developing the program
in Afro-American studies. It is expected that the program will be
offered as a second field in the fall of 1969 and soon will be
developed into a major field.
A course in the history of the Negro in America had been taught by
Dr. Liedel. This semester, a course in American Negro Literature is
taught by Dr. Reilly.
In November, a group of Black students presented a course of
Afro-American studies to be offered on the 200 level because the
other Afro-American courses are not open to underclassmen.
Unfortunately, the course ran into some difficulty due to the lack of
communication between the administration and the Black students.
In January, President Collins talked with the Black students about
the course. The course had not been put through the proper channels.
To keep the committment made to the students, President Collins
tried to ullieviate the situation.
Dr. Wheeler met with the Executive Council, and presented the
program. The program was approved. Some of the usual channels were
by passed because the situation called for some urgency.
In a meeting of Dean Wheeler, Dr, Peter Krosby, and Mr. Lockhart,
they decided to accept a 200 level course with Mr. Lockhart as
instructor. Dr. Krosby stated he would recommend the course and
instructor to the history department. The history department
approved the course,
In a second meeting between President Collins and the Black
students, they asked the President to make three committmenU: to
offer a 200 level in Afro-American history, to develop a department
of Afro-American studies, to admit 300 non-white minority group
students next fall.
President Collins felt these committments were acceptable. He
agreed to these committments without consulting with the faculty
Continued to Page Three
required to graduate in the School
of Arts and Sciences is simply that
the students will now find it easier
to obtain 120 credits rather than
124 credits.
Most courses are three credit
hours making a typical semester
worth 15 credits, which was
p r e v i o u s l y n o t enough
to
graduate.
Therefore, a student would
have to take two credit courses, or
find four credit courses to take, or
attend summer sessions.
Editor's Note: Due to exams and intersection, the University
student
body has remained largely ignorant of the actual
circumstances in the establishment of an Afro-American
Studies
Department at this University.
The ASP has attempted to reconstruct the complex scenes of events
involved from November 1968 through to January 13 and continuing
now.
In November, the Black Student Alliance submitted a plan that
would establish a 200 level Afro-American history course. The plan
went to Dr. Paul Miwa, Assistant Vice-President for Academic Affairs,
who had been in close communication with the BSA. To quote
President Collins, "The general reassurance and encouragement he
gave to students was construed by them to mean that the course was
moving toward approval through regular channels."
From November until Friday, January 10, the proposal sat on a
desk in the Administration Building and no explanation has been
offered as to why. As far as can be established, the student body knew
nothing of it, nothing was communicated to the BSA about it, and
President Collins knew nothing about it until Friday, January 10.
The request for this course did not go through the regular
machinery of faculty committees, departmental review in the College
of Arts and Sciences, and the Faculty Senate. However, it was
directed to responsible officials and no iniative was taken.
Though he knew nothing about it until January, President Collins
himself has assumed full responsibility "for this breakdown in
communication."
On Friday, January 10, a group of BSA students met with Dr. Miwa
and President Collins. It was then that they and President Collins
found out .what had happened.
In the time between November and January, the BSA had prepared
a three point plan, one point of which they presented to President
Collins.
It seemed to them that they were being deceived, and that pressure
would have to come from somewhere to restore the lost iniative on
their supposedly approved program.
Their plan called for three committments:
1. The establishment of a 200 level, three hour course in
Afro-American history for the Spring, 1960 semester.
2. The establishment, by Fall, 1969, of a program in Afro-American
Studies offered by a department of that name.
3. The admission of 300 non-white and minority group students in
the fall of 1969.
Therefore, lowering the number
of credit hours frees the students
The group from BSA told President Collins that he should review
to pursue the courses they wish to and consider their proposals over the weekend. They would return on
take without having to worry Monday for his decision, but he would either have to approve or
about finding a way to make up refuse, for they did not consider the plan negotiable.

That afternoon, President Collins "set about doing what I could to

This involved a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Faculty

As a result of the speech Senate which reaffirmed "the general plans concerning the

more elctive than he normally
would be able to take, to fill the
three credit hours that the speech

occupied.
This means the student will be
able to take a course of his own
choosing instead of being made to
lake a speech course which he
muy not even want to take.
Also, the two year Physical
E d u c a t i o n Program is now
changed to a one year program.
However, if a student wishes to
tuke more than the one year of
gym, he is allowed to do so.
The initial ideu of lowering the
124 credit hour requirement was
introduced nearly four years ago.
Students are, of course, still
allowed lo take over the 120
credit hour requirement. The 120
is just the minimum that has been
reset.
