“Man Is A Political AnimaP’-Aristotle Student Government — Of What Value? Apathy Results In Poor Campus Representation; Student Elections Become Popularity Contests INCREASINGLY each semester, disenchantment reigns in student gov¬ ernment on campus. Is it possible, critics ask, for student leaders elected by only a small percentage of registered students to serve as bona fide representatives in directing student affairs on campus? In this day, when minority students — Afro-American, Mexican-American, and other hyphenated groups - have become sensitive to injustices and articulate and demon¬ strative on the question, their voices are not always heard in quiet. Also among the majority of the student body, the gener¬ al lack of political awareness and interest is evident. Specifically, the complaint is frequently heard these days that the SCC student leaders constitute an in-grown, social clique voted into office on the basis of limited popu¬ larity, good looks, or for the enhancement of their record of extracurricular participation. At issue also is the fact that the moral and legal respon¬ sibility of the two faculty advisors often conflicts with the students’ rights to make mistakes - and learn from their mistakes. Of such is a dilemma. That the issue of effective government is the concern of higher echelons of administration is evidenced by the fact that both Supt. Walter Coultas and SCC President Oliver J. Durand have recognized publicly that in this day of student activism, the present system of student govern¬ ment is nothing more than window dressing. Political activism on this campus has been relatively mi¬ nor this semester, although some vociferous and interest¬ ing confrontations have occurred in past years involving both race and campus politics. The 1968 prodigious SCC enrollment, the complex con¬ temporary social issues, the latent desire of collegiate minds to be heard have combined, in the minds of many, to render the present system of student leadership obso¬ lete. For the idealistic wisdom calls for a try at developing something better. 11
