Faculty Members Offer Opinions

 

by Kathy Murphey
Alliance recently proposed that
a voting student member or several
members be admitted to the faculty
Calendar Committee. In a series
of interviews, the faculty response
to this proposal was varied.

Mr, Dudden, a History pro-
fessor, and one of the two faculty
members on the Calendar Com-
mittee, claimed that the issue of
student. representation involves
more’ than the calendar, He felt
the whole question of a student
share in the government of college
affairs should be considered,

Mr, Dudden said he would be
in favor of a movement in the
direction of more student partici-
pation in the college community,
Students. have good ideas now from
which the faculty doesn’t benefit,
Many of these ideas could be used
in solving practical problems,

Mr, Dudden hoped that graduate
students as well asallfour classes
of undergraduates would join stu-
dent committees which would take
positions “on college policy, Thus
a broad and continuous base for,
student interest in college affairs
could be created,

Mr. Berliner, a chemistry pro-
fessor and a member of the
Calendar: Committee, thought that
the calendar is a college and a
faculty affair. It involves issues
like financial matters, research
time, and cooperation with Haver-
ford which are not student con-
cerns.

Mr. Berliner said he was will-
ing to listen to student opinion.
Yet he felt there was no coherent
opinion on issues such as the ‘‘lanie
duck’? period. He thought that there
was no ideal calendar which would
satisfy everyone.

Mr. Berliner was opposed to
having a voting student member on
the Caiendar : Committee, He did
not approve of anon-voting, listen-
ing representative either. He
felt the faculty committee might
meet occasionally with a separate
committee of students to hear their
opinions.

Miss de Graaf of the Russian
Department felt students should be
represented on the committee,
since they are as concerned with
the calendar as the faculty. Stu-
dents on the committee would have
a chance to make their views known.
However, Miss de Graaf felt that
the faculty should have veto power
over the decisions of the com-
mittee, while the student body
should not, The calendar affects
the amount of time faculty can spend
on research during the summer and
has a direct influence on their job
during the year.

Miss Lang of the Greek Depart-
ment thought that student repre-
sentation on the Calendar Com-
mittee was a good idea. She said
the calendar is something with
which the whole Bryn Mawr com--
munity has to live. The stu-
dents and the faculty often
have opposite views on the cal-
endar, and each ought to know
theother’s .position. The faculty
wants a short year with long sum-
mer vacations. The students like
to spread out the year with more
review periods and longer va-
cations.

Miss Lang did not support stu-
dent help in making promotions
and appointments, since students
do not- have the necessary back-
ground for such a responsibility.
Yet she felt that student parti-
cipation on the Calendar Commit-
tee makes sense and provides a
healthy opportunity for cooperation

On Student Calendar Committee

between Bryn Mawr faculty and
students.

Mrs, Ridgway, chairman of the
Archaeology Department, pointed
out that there has been much
disagreement about the calendar
in faculty meetings. She guessed
that the same disagreement exists
in the student body, and that it
would be hard to find a student
to represent campus opinion.

However, she felt that if stu-
dents were involved in decision-
making on the Calendar Com-
mittee, they would feel bound by
the cal2ndar, If the students help-
ed to set up a reading period
during the month of January, they
would appreciate and make use of
it.

Students on the faculty commit-
tee might also bring up new ideas.
For example, some students at one
time sent around a petition pro-
posing that Thanksgiving vacation
begin at 12:15 p.m. on Wednesday
instead of after the last afternoon

“class. This point was never pick-

ed up, but if students had been on
the Calenda: Committee, it might
have been discussed.

If students were members of the
committee they might realize the
problems the faculty faces in plan-
ning the academic year. They might
see that faculty decisions are not
just arbitrary.

Mrs, Ridgway concluded that the
more responsibility students re-
ceive the. better, as long as they
can handle it.
