confirmed from page 7 The teacher will move more into the role of a resource person and a guiding factor when needed f not one ofa machine which spews out truckloads of programmed knowledge to thousands of stud- ents who in turn regurgitate truckloads of pro- grammed bull. lt is mandatory that a person be allowed to look into the areas of knowledge which interest him. lf this is not done, education will repidly decline into a more computerized science than it already is. As a result of the type of education new available, there is more possibility that more people will drop out, and fall into the category of people who know not much and care even less about the things which vitally affect them. Unless we simply wish to ride along with the impending doom of the present system, there is no other course open except to change the educational system drastically. Of course, there is the option of withdrawing from societal education, but the success of this type of action would be limited to those few of true intel- ligence who would succeed in attaining their per- sonal goals, no matter what. The need for this change is manifest in the increasing minimization of students who actually set goals for themselves and see these goals realized. The fire of Revolution on University campuses has not been extinguished yet, it has merely disguised itself under a cloak of more reational action. However, it is smouldering, and if allowed to continue to merely smoulder, its last flicker may soon be seen. lt is up to anyone who is legitimately lby their own choicel on a col- lege campus, or high school for that matter, to speak out and to take the necessary steps, how- ever drastic, to see that the proper action is taken to form a truly educational society in every aspect. lt is the educational system which affects our total beingg for no matter what we do besides initiate action, we have learned to do it and the manner in which we learn in turn affects the way we teach. If this is changed, many prople may be shocked to find some true happiness in living, whether they run a corporation or collect gar- bage lboth of which pay about the same nowl. Since the change is inevitable, it would be well to think of what system would be best for Harper. However, there is a problem The traditional stumbling block for changes in a iunior college is the fear that it cannot be more liberal than the the 4 year schools than it sends students to. How- ever, the check will different schools about the 54 acceptability of A-B-C no-credit grades shows this reasoning to be false. lt is the opinion of the authors that the A-B-C no-credit system has shown itself to be a viable improvement and should be used for all courses with a pass-fail option similar to the University of lllinois', available for electives. So far about 200 Harper students have signed a petition requesting an A-B-C no-credit system for Harper with only about 8 students refuring to sign. These 2000 student signatures are about 16 times the number of students who voted in the last Student Senate elections. And yet, the old system remains. Dr. Fischer, Vice-President of Student Affiars said, I don't think that Harper is ready for a new system. Are you ready for A-B-C no-credit system? A new system that doesn't punish you twice? Or, since it was good enough for the past fourteen years, does that make it good enough now? .. -.rf t .. ... . :ff :fm ri, ltr -any wfn.-my-t.gn-ra1fgu-Gzz'v+w-,gfi-,H-
