University of Pittsburgh - Owl Yearbook (Pittsburgh, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 376 of the 1971 volume:

MWERSfTY OF PITTSBURGH LIBRARIES Many people ask: Why is yearbook? Well, there are various superficial reasons, but the answer is within each of us. What do I mean? Consider the university experience. It is made involvements, and The place is us. For some, it is for others, the dorms, hill, or even Oakland really matter what our point is, only that it exists for of us, symbolizing the stitution. Next, consider periences each of us has here. Whether falling in love, studying athletics, groups, or from the university, as a result of them come, at least, a person. ice .arid the ex ..J third arid most important cre m- ted by the symbol of the OWL. That is, reflection. The OWL means remembering bow felt and what we believed. Its purpose is to remind us of the place and the times,, not only by what pictured arid written but, more importantly, V acting as a catalyst and causinK us to recall our personal experiences. For within them lie our •deals a riel our Vr w hen the University of Pittsburgh decided, in August, 1965, to become state-related, every aspect of campus life was profoundly influenced. As a consequence of this new status, the philosophy which served as Pitt's guiding principle underwent an important change. Under Chancellor Litchfield Pitt was aiming at establishing itself as one of the 10 or 12 best universities in the country, and attracting a nation-wide student body. As a member of the Commonwealth System, Pitt now aims to serve the higher educational needs of the sons and daughters of Western Pennsylvania. Before 1967, the University community shared a goal, and its students were from backgrounds of similar values and they shared a largely common college experience. Since 1967, Pitt has come to resemble more closely a service station in that the University has adapted itself to meeting the needs of a much more diversified student population, and without the direction supplied by a shared goal. The period 1967 to 1971, which will serve as the focus of this Yearbook, has been an important transitional era for the University. It has shifted from shaping a cosmopolitan student body to accommodating itself to a local group, and people from both these worlds have been on campus during these years. The 1970-71 school year marked the passing of the first full undergraduate generation since staterelatedness, and this Yearbook will try to relate how and why the University of Pittsburgh is a different place now than it used to be. A university presents its students with two kinds of environments within which each individual selects what is personally important. One of these is academic, and the other is social. The kinds of things a student selects depends on what each person wants in the way of intellectual and personal involvement, and the alternatives for the expression of such involvements which are available at the University. When considering how Pitt is different now than it used to he, two separate but related processes can be observed. Change is one such process, and the composition of the student body has been radically altered. Within the academic environment a student may want an opportunity to sharpen analytical tools for creative thought, rigorous job preparation, only a passing grade, or may not really be sure of what is desired at all. What is critical for the University in terms of change is that the number of values being expressed has increased, and that these, and a whole bunch more, coexist in the same classroom Similarly, within the social environment, a student may want to get deeply involved in bringing about change in the distribution of power; or, to spend only a few hours a day at school and the rest of the time with the same group of friends that had been together since high school; or, to concentrate on finding someone of the opposite sex to hold on to; or, to stay pretty much alone and pay attention to the business at hand. Again, what is important is that the number of desires being expressed has increased, and that all these desires, plus many variations, seek expression on the Pitt campus. The impact of state-relatedness was felt most directly on the kinds of students who came to the University. The following table illustrates how the geographical distribution of the Freshman class has looked before and after state-relatedness: 7965 7970 Pennsylvania 62% 93% Other States 38% 7% Allegheny County 36% 55% Other Pennsylvania Counties 26 38% In addition to there being differences in the kinds of commitments students make to themselves and to the institution according to where they come from, the backgrounds of students, both economically and socially, has become much more varied. In terms of the college experience, the Freshman Year is of special significance, and the percentage of freshmen who share the common denominator of dormitory residence has decreased from 70% in 1965 to 48% in 1970. Again, this means that there are fewer widely shared frames of reference among students. The changes in University philosophy and in the makeup of the student body have resulted in many more and varied demands being placed by students upon the institution. Related to the process of change, but remaining distinct is the process of reform, and it has been true that most reforms have been in keeping with the University philosophy of Pitt as a service station, and have acted to reinforce the changes which have been taking place. Reform, meaning the creation of options for the expression of different values, and the removal of policies which restrict and add requirements on to the exercise of self-direction, have touched virtually every area of campus life, from the Housing Office, to the Student Affairs Office, to the Greek system, to the Student Association, to the grading system, to the form of the classroom, to the choice of how one should live and learn. What The 1971 Owl must bring out is the wide variety of values which people are expressing at the University of Pittsburgh, and how certain very important parts of the life of the entire campus have changed in response to these expressions. The articles and pictures which follow attempt to show what is different about Pitt, and to explain why. We fully realize that any individual student experiences only a very tiny part of the life of the entire University, and that anyone who attempts to serve as historian is subject to the limitations of a very personal past. This is why we have sought to involve as many students with different, yet highly relevant experiences as possible. In this way we will try to present the University of Pittsburgh in as fair a way as we can see. •iiiitil •••••• III «••••• min mm urn him® A’ GEORGE AIKEN i mu McDonald's CATCH 23 WUSA DIE HAT SAT S SUN . . . the university . . . “When I was there once for an hour I didn't see much in it for my part; auld crumbling buildings, half church, half almshouse, and not much going on at that. “You are wong, John; there is more going on than meets the eye of a man walking through the streets.

CHANGE ■ INTRODUCTION o l tudents now have a hand into decision-making processes in many areas of the University. However, interest in the organization which involves most of these student politicians, either through election or appointment, has been steadily and rapidly declining. student politics and government 1968 - 2500 1969 - 2400 1970 - 1600 - (This is the average of the two elections which were held because the first election was declared invalid). 1971 - 900 ACHElIt 5QML PRCCPS commoners coiissicicp: umvp FOR 0(£ 0Nb' tfERR CNF •M I The above figures are the approximate number of people voting in Student Government Association elections in the last four years, and the 1971 contest was conducted under the auspices of a New Constitution which was ratified by about 500 people in a November, 1970 referendum. The total number of eligible voters (which in 1971 included all full- and part-time undergraduates) was well over 15,000, which meant a turnout for the year of less than 10%. In addition to fewer people concerning themselves with the formal political organization, the campus was much quieter during the 1970-71 school session than it had been in the previous two years. Large numbers of students did not get together to demand basic changes in Pitt as a social and or educational environment, arid lor someone looking back and remembering the actions focusing on student power, the question of what is different becomes important and relevant. While a New Constitution altered the form of Student Government (president - vice-president -senate) into the Student Association (four commissioners and a social council), there were surprisingly few real changes in the substance of the organization. Those people who have been involved have only attempted relating the organization to the students, rather than relating the students, through the organization, to the rest of the University. The objective of the movement to gain power for students was to get people involved in decision-making centers like the University Senate, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and the Board of Trustees, and as this was accomplished, the responsibility to place these influential people was given to Student Government. Yet the organization has always been extremely closed off and inward-facing. Campaign issues have perennially dealt with whether or not to abolish some or all of SG, or, to drastically restructure it. For those who thought SG was a good idea but that it just needed the right people to make it work, the thing was to represent the student body (which meant having a few Greeks, dormers, commuters, and, if you could find one, a minority group member, on your side). However, the object and the content of this representation, or the issues being discussed by those students involved with the University Senate and elsewhere, were rarely debated, or even mentioned. This has not changed even under the New Constitution, but the current Student Association illustrates a new slant in this sort of a-political politics. The New Constitution reflects the values of those people who desired efficiency and coordination in student affairs, and the idea of having four commissioners with very well-defined areas of responsibility was supposed to make sure that everything got taken care of, but that nothing overlapped. However, the effect of specifying the duties that each commissioner was supposed to perform within the Asso- ciation was to reinforce the inward-facing character of the organization. The outward-facing functions, such as representing students to the faculty, administration, trustees, and the legislature, were de-emphasized, and a service orientation dominated. While these outward-facing functions were still being handled, students were and are hearing about services such as movies and concerts, and the availability of legal help through the Legal Awareness and Off-Campus Housing Committees. While these services are important, they are common denominators in that they are acceptable to most students. The outward-facing functions, which are potentially very controversial, are rarely talked about by large numbers of people. It is ironic that rumors and scandals of graft and corruption in the Student Association were rampant during 1971, so the goals of efficiency and coordination may have been bought at a very high price. Moreover, this inward-facing and a-political nature includes the present structure and function of the allocations process, which has remained virtually unchanged since its beginning about five years ago. The Allocations Committee distributes the funds collected from the Student Activities Fee, thus they are the only real legislative student group on campus. The Allocations Committee is the only group which can recommend a raise in the Activities Fee, which gives them the power to tax. The distribution of these monies is the one area where students have real and complete power, as a group, over their own affairs, yet, it is hard to imagine a legislative body that allocates more than $200,000 and has the power to tax and to refuse to fund any organization, being more removed from the people for whom they are supposed to be legislating. New members of this Committee are nominated by the existing members, and candidates are given a test (which implies that the Allocations Committee serves the same function as a Civil Service). This is an attempt to introduce efficiency criteria into the distribution of monies, and tries to create the impression that the Committee is above the dirty politics that the council which must approve their budgetary recommendations indulges in. The work of the Committee is done almost entirely during the summer, and this further insulates the process. However, the Allocations Committee clashed violently with the Student Association this year when they refused to give money to the Pitt News for salaries which the Association had voter! the newspaper could have. Salaries became a more critical issue when the commissioners of the Association re- quested monthly compensation for themselves and their services. A power struggle ensued which was somewhat alleviated by the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs when he decided that money for working in any student organization would be awarded purely on the basis of financial need. What the salary issue did point out, besides the fact that everybody suddenly became concerned with grabbing a piece of the pie for some kind of ambiguous public service, was the extent to which the Allocations Committee is unaccountable, and the obviously political nature of the distribution of money. The New Constitution attempted to rationalize student administration of student affairs (there never was any real governing ), and it continued to consider the Allocations Committee as being outside politics, but it had no impact on the most important problem facing the organization - the declining student interest and involvement as shown through fewer voters turning out. This should lead directly to the conclusion that the form of the organizations is quite beside the point, and that the Student Association must be placed in a larger context to understand what has happened. Student leaders, when explaining why nothing seems to be happening at Pitt, invoke the Great God Apathy as the reason, which actually confuses a great deal more than it explains. It is misleading to say that students don't care. They do care very deeply — it is just that the things student leaders are involved with are neither relevant nor important to the vast majority of people. Apathy is an excuse used by people who are concerned with a particular thing to explain why everyone else is not concerned with that particular thing. It is all a matter of differing priorities. For large numbers of people there are things more important than student politics, and for those who wish to become politically involved. there are other organizations which exist and are much closer to the needs of particular groups of people. Commuters have their group, dorm students have theirs, Greeks have theirs, minority students have theirs, and so on. The Pitt student body is extremely heterogeneous, and so long as the Student Association attempts to serve all students, it is left with common denominators and those services which these other primary groups cannot easily provide. Moreover, the kinds of things that the Student Association emphasizes, such as movies and concerts, are not the kinds of things which bring voters flocking to the polls to choose between radically different alternatives. The most important thing about student politics at the University of Pittsburgh is that it is extremely fragmented, and that there is little interaction between the various mostly-closed groups. Demands for some kind of change were registered most vocally this year by Women, Blacks, and Commuters, yet each was concerned only with their own group, and the changes which were demanded were largely of importance only to that group. This has been the pattern of political activity at Pitt for quite a while. The demands for student power, such as those made by the Concerned Students and Faculty two years ago, were also demands which were aimed at making room for the involvement of a certain group of people. Student participation in University decision-making is as much minority-group politics as the creation of a Black Studies Department, an Institute for Feminist Studies, and the erection of two bus shelters. In an environment which is as decentralized as at Pitt in that there are many groups which are expressing different values, it becomes somewhat easier for one well-organized group to push its demands right up front. It also means that political activity is directed towards creating space for different kinds of groups to have room to operate. There are no students who are concerned with bringing about a single change in the entire institution, nor would any such effort be successful. However, many of the demands made by particular groups have been well-received. Perhaps this is one reason why the campus is suddenly quieter. Many vocal groups now have a slice of the pie for themselves, and they have become more interested in protecting and or expanding their piece. In addition to the success of many of the formerly discontented, it is often pointed out that a very large percentage of those who were most vocal in demanding changes two and three years ago came to Pitt from far away. There are fewer such people coming to Pitt nowadays, and perhaps this means that there are fewer people who are committed to living at the University in the fullest sense, and thus are more likely to find things which they would like to see changed than those who are only at school with a small part of their total commitment. There is one other thing which people talk about as being somewhat responsible for the complacent campus atmosphere, sometimes in jest and sometimes in earnest. There is still speculation as to what would have happened if the Cambodian Invasion and the Kent and Jackson States killings had occurred while Pitt was in full Winter Session, and many groups use the Summertime to take care of much important work. Perhaps the long vacation period has caused Pitt to miss out on much of contemporary college activity, yet a rather large number of important decisions are made when there are very few people around to make comments. There seem to be fewer issues around in 1971 which attract the attention of large numbers of students. The mode of expression of political activity has also changed. time change ■ student politics government The possibility of 800 students jamming the Commons Room to voice opposition to a piece of State legislation which would try to crack down on student protest; the chances of 1000 people sitting in the Common Facilities Building after it has been ordered cleared to discuss the meaning of a Free University; or, the odds of -40 students visiting the Provost to demand a review of the College of Arts and Sciences curriculum, all seem utterly remote, and even absurd. The conventional wisdom which is shared by many members of the faculty and administration holds that the student of today is a very socially concerned, involved, pragmatic, and hard-working person. The student of 1971 is not bothering with trying to change any institutions, but is concentrating on getting as much out of the college experience as is possible to be prepared to contribute towards making changes later on in life and society. This is to be distinguished from the loud, idealistic, impractical student of the past few years who was very quick to criticize, but was never around when it came to doing the hard work. To the holders of this conventional wisdom it is the doing of the hard work which is the most important thing. This fits in very nicely with the philosophy which has been adopted by the Pitt Administration. The Vice-Chancellor for Student Affairs says that his staff is around to help out students and to serve their needs. In order to find out what these needs are, the Vice-Chancellor set up a Student Affairs Advisory Committee which is made up of all the campus leaders from the major organizations. No one can complain about a lack of communications. But pressures for change have never come from a group like the Advisory Committee, nor have they come from the student government. They have always been generated outside these representative” groups, and outside of the usual channels. The politics of the previous three years has been concerned with the expansion and loosening up of the University of Pittsburgh as a social and political environment. If the conventional wisdom contains some truth, then this period has come to an end, and the politics of the future will be considerably different than what has gone before. lime change ■ student politics governmen STUDENT GOVERNMENT OUT TO LUNCH (in Miami) o morning during the Winter Term of 1969, a group of about forty students entered the office of the chief academic official of the Uni- curricular change versity and requested an audience with the Provost. The Provost appeared and said that he thought a meeting with five or six group representatives” would be more appropriate, but the group, wishing to avoid creating distinctions between leaders and followers,” politely refused this offer and repeated their request for a meeting of the whole. Such a group meeting had never been held at Pitt, and the Provost, lacking any precedent for evasive action, agreed to the request. The student group presented demand calling for the creation of i faculty-student committee to con duct a year-long study of the Col lege of Arts and Sciences curricu lum, and the power to appoint the faculty member who would b chairman of this committee. Th Provost and the Dean of the Facult' of Arts and Sciences saw that such a study might be of some value and committed themselves to it, but the selection of the faculty members and the chairman was to be left to the faculty and the Dean of the College. During the course of its existence, the committee recommended many reforms in and additions to the College curriculum, however, it concentrated its attention on the creation of a radically different alternative to the Freshman Year. This alternative, the Prologue Program, stirred considerable controversy among the interested members of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and it was decided that the Freshman Year should be subjected to another study by a more representative group. It is significant to note that in the section on curriculum of the University's report to the Middle Atlantic States Accreditation Association, no mention is made of the fact that a year-long study ever took place. The Arts and Sciences Review Committee (ASRC) was born in a radical fashion, and its birth symbol stayed with it throughout its lifetime. It grew up during an era when the curriculum was already undergoing reform, and the ASRC was committed from its inception to expanding the academic environment to allow for different kinds of college experience. The charged atmosphere surrounding the creation of the ASRC was in large measure generated by the ROTC controversy, in which Pitt emerged as one of the first large universities to eliminate academic credit for the military program. In addition to this major change (major in the sense that very many people were in an uproar over it), a pass fail grading system and a self-designed major program were initiated within the College in 1967 and 1968. These two programs were aimed at creating new options in the curriculum so that a student would have increased freedom to pursue what was personally interesting, and they indicated the direction that curricular reform was to take. The formal staffing of the ASRC waited for the assumption of office by the newly-appointed Dean of the College Dr. Jerome Schneewind (Philosophy), and the new Dean declared himself as in favor of extensive reform. Dr. David Bramhall (Economics) was appointed chairman of the student-faculty committee, and he was selected over Dr. David Houston (Economics) who was the choice for chairman of the original student group, perhaps because Dave Houston had a more extremist reputation than did Dave Bramhall, and a more rational approach, as Dean Schneewind was supposed to exemplify, was deemed more appropriate. However, the entire ASRC was composed of people who from the very beginning were strongly committed to structural change, and they defined their role as one of advocates of such change on behalf of students and the principle of student-directed learning. The ASRC was never intended to be representative of widely differing educational philosophies, and perhaps this fact contributed to their relative isolation from the rest of the faculty and the resultant shock that appeared when the Prologue Program was presented. The review proceeded in an extremely open manner, with hearings being held all over campus to which anybody and everybody was invited to attend and express a point of view. At such hearings, the topics of grades and requirements dominated discussion, as they were the things which were central to the experience of all students. Indeed, these two areas had already been much discussed and reform had been taking place. The number of credits needed to graduate had been reduced from 124 to 120; the freshman physical education requirement had been dropped; and, the pass fail system had evolved into a satisfactory un-satisfactory grade which was a bit more attractive because a U was not included in the QPA calculation, while an F (from the pass t'ail system) was taken into account. Again, all these curricular changes were in the direction of expanding options and removing restrictions - the student was being given more room to choose what was desirable. The ASRC continued this trend by proposing the abolition or reduction of many more existing requirements. The foreign language and English composition requirements were, after a hell of a lot of debate, removed; the limitation on the number of credits a student was permitted to take in a single department was raised from 40 to 60; an independent study term consisting of a block of 15 credits was made available; and, a further evolution of the grading system into the present credit no-entry option came about. However, while all these reforms, and many additions to the curriculum, were aimed at helping the student to make college life more personally relevant, the ASRC felt that it was necessary to radically alter the freshman year if what they considered to be the main curricular problem at Pitt was to be dealt with. The review committee decided that the curriculum functioned well for two types of students, but not for others. Students at Pitt who started out sure of their future plans (e.g. to be a doctor or a lawyer) could very easily find their way through four years without serious questions. A survey conducted by the College found that the percentage of students who planned to enter professional school after graduation did not change significantly from freshman to senior years, thus supporting this view. The student with a relatively large amount of self-direction and motivation could take advantage of a self-designed major program or the increased possibilities for creating new courses. However, the number of people who do exercise these options is extremely small. In any case, these two kinds of students have room to work at Pitt. The ASRC aimed its work at the large majority of students who are not quite sure of what it is they want to do either during or aftei; college, and do not really know-where to go for some advice. They were thinking of students who are not sure of what they want to learn, or how to go about learning, or whether to learn at all. As the ASRC defined the most valuable learning experience as the learning which is most personally meaningful and the learning in which the student is the most personally involved, the solution the ASRC hoped for was the creation of an environment which would foster self-directed and motivated learning. The result was the Prologue Program. Basically, the Prologue Program would take 300 freshmen and put them in groups of 15 with one professor per group. The decision to participate in the Prologue Program would be entirely voluntary, and a student could decide to drop out without hassle. Each group would decide what it is they wanted to learn, and how they wanted to learn it. Topics could be singular or multiple, and they could be pursued either individually, in smaller groups, or, collectively. No options were closed off — a student could elect any regularly scheduled course, and a group could meet or not meet according to what its members thought would be appropriate. Each student would be advised to keep a Portfolio, which would contain written evaluations by any faculty members or other instructors that the student worked with, a student's own personal evaluation, and or a student's own work. The Program was to be experimental, and it was aimed at freeing the student and group from traditional restrictions to be able to pursue what the student and group considered intellectually important. It would attempt to undo the experience of 12 years of other-directed learning, which the ASRC considered to be the heart of the educational problem. It was to be an experiment because no one was sure of how the kinds of freshmen who came to Pitt would adapt to such an environment. At small elite schools like Antioch and Reed, such a freshman year is the rule, but at a large, heterogeneous (in the sense that the student body is not self-selected as it is at the smaller schools), urban institution, such an idea is largely untried. The central ideas underlying the Prologue Program - that learning should be student-directed; that teachers do not have a monopoly on what is to be learned; and, that learning does not take place solely in classrooms and in fifty-minute chunks — caused much uneasiness among many faculty members, and generated much opposition. One major area of concern focused on what some people thought would go on in a Prologue group. Some people thought that a group would be more concerned with emotional rather than intellectual development, and that a sensitivity training-like atmosphere would prevail in an environment in which group pressure stifled individual creativity. Some people connected the Prologue Program to the largely unstructured open classroom approach to teaching favored by Houston and Bramhall, and determined time change ■ curricular change that a chaotic situation would result in which students did little real work because of the lack of direction which was normally provided by the instructor. This last point related to another fundamental disagreement which centered on the value of student-directed learning. Some thought that students, especially freshmen, were not mature enough to handle so much freedom. In addition to doubts about student maturity, there were doubts as to the nature of the role that the faculty member (mentor) of each Prologue group was supposed to play. People were not sure if the mentor was supposed to teach whatever the group wanted to learn (thus raising questions of professional competence and integrity), to act as a parent-image and or group facilitator, or, to advise and consent to group decisions. Perhaps the most controversial question concerned the power to decide what was to be learned and in what manner, which, in the Prologue group, shifted from the instructor to the student. These issues formed the backdrop against which the Faculty of Arts and Sciences debated the Prologue Program. As the Program was presented as being experimental in nature, much of the discussion focused on evaluation, both of the individual student and of the Program as a whole, in terms of the achievement of its objectives. As the ASRC intended it, evaluation of a student-directed learning process is primarily the responsibility of the student, and in any case, an evaluation should be something to help the student, not a threat of future failure. It was difficult, perhaps impossible, to satisfy those people who demanded a more rigorous evaluation procedure than the Portfolio which was suggested by the ASRC. However, this was disapproved of because the ambiguity surrounding what was to go into it might lead to an inaccurate picture of the student being presented. An evaluation of the Program as a whole was even more difficult to agree on. It is not so easy to measure the success of the creation of an environment which fosters self-directed and motivated learning. The controversy about the program evaluation was especially disappointing to the ASRC because nothing else that the College of Arts and Sciences does gets evaluated very rigorously; why should the Prologue Program be so special? Furthermore, the ASRC had held hearings to which faculty members were specifically invited to attend and participate. This attracted about 16 teachers. Why all the shouting now, but so little interest before? In any case, some people formed the opinion that the Prologue Program was put together very sloppily, and they were turned off to it. Much stiffer opposition was generated by thoughts of where the money would come from to finance such an effort. Very little consideration of whether or not money is being spent wisely is indulged in by the faculty and, as a result, no thought is given to questioning the value of that which already exists in the budget. The Prologue Program is a marginal venture in that it must be added to everything else which exists, so that it must compete for scarce resources with the maintenance of existing programs, the expansion of existing programs, and, other newly-proposed programs. It was assumed that each Department in the College would contribute to the financing of the Prologue Program, and that this money would therefore be diverted from other expenses such as teachers and other personnel. As this was the case, many junior faculty members felt themselves threatened and, therefore, in opposition. The Prologue Program, as a marginal program (estimated to cost about $300,000) which had created a great deal of controversy, had little hope. The faculty decided during the Winter Term of 1971, by a vote of 136 to 81, to create another committee to study the Freshman Year and make recommendations for change. The path of the ASRC through the year illustrates very clearly the politics of curricular change. The Prologue Program was identified as the radical idea, and, even though it had the support of the Dean of the College, the chairman of the Student Affairs Committee of the University Senate, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Council, and the Student Cabinet of the College, it was put aside in favor of a more representative group. The popular opinion was that the ASRC did accomplish one thing - it got everybody to agree that there was a need for change. Everybody agreed that the current Freshman Year is a waste of time; that grades don't really say much about a student's ability and could even hurt; and, that it would be really nice if students liked what they were doing and were free to do it. The problem is to get people to agree on what the alternative should look like - the radical approach was too far out, in the sense that it sought to change many basic relationships between the student and the academic community. Whether or not this mood lasts, and the kinds of changes, if any, which emerge, remains to be seen. Curriculum reform has continued during and after the ASRC. The latest option which has been approved allows the student to take 120 credits in the College without declaring a major. The Bachelor of Liberal Arts Degree has been established for students electing this option. In general, the College curriculum, indeed the curricular offerings of every school in the University with the exception of Engineering, have greatly expanded and loosened in the last few years. The Engineering School has seen fit to prescribe each course that its students will take for their first two years, and everyone will take the same courses. The College curriculum has expanded and loosened to serve more kinds of students than it had served previously. The entire direction of academic reform has been parallel to the direction of change throughout the University - a more open environment to serve more people. The ASRC provided a very sophisti- cated educational philosophy to interlock with the various other aspects of Pitt life; whether anybody wants to accept it or not does not make it any less relevant. University of Pittsburgh students are today demanding many different kinds and degrees of intellectual experience. Student-directed learning, whether it is consciously demanded or not, exists, and will continue to exist regardless of the role the instructor plays and in whatever form the classroom takes. The issue with which the ASRC concerned itself was increasing the number of students who were making conscious demands. One final element to be considered is the role of active student involvement in bringing about curricular reform. Beginning with Joe Kociubes, who worked hard to create ways and means for students to become involved in decisionmaking processes in every area of University life, through Mike Fa-bricant, Ellen Wartella, and Everett Bannister, who server! as the student members of the ASRC, to the students who sit on the various academic councils in the schools of the University, active student involvement has been a crucial input into the reform process. It is one thing for interested faculty members to respond to and advocate student demands for a different education, and quite another for faculty to speak in a student vacuum. What has been most noticeable during the 1971 school year has been the absence of student demands for reform. The future of curricular change is therefore open to serious question. time change ■ curricular change pitt, the state, and finances T Jkhe University of Pittsburgh has lived with a financial crisis ever since the decision to become state-related, and it will continue to do so for as long as it maintains that status. Being a part of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education means that Pitt is directly exposed to the budgetary process of the State Legislature, and that the present and future of the institution is integrally tied to the politics of Pennsylvania. In the sense that Pitt is one of a number of special interests competing for a piece of the Pennsylvania pie, its financial situation is one of unrelieved uncertainty. unds, $29,495,358; end unds, $84,591,696; an unds, $196,071,567. The deficit as of June pas $4,267,412. Tuition will be increased next year tor the fourth straight year, and this is, in part, a reflection of a State tax structure which is inadequately built to handle increasing State assumption of rising costs, especially in the areas of health, education, and welfare. This inadequate tax structure (inadequate from Pitt's point of view) is itself a reflection of the political climate, and people's values as to the acceptable role of the state government. This climate assigns higher education a relatively low priority in the total distribution of the pie, and certainly a lower priority than is given the elementary and secondary varieties. Perhaps it is that wmen plan 10, 1970 Pennsylvania taxpayers cannot quite see the benefits that all this higher education is reaping for the citizens of the State. One critically important consequence of the University's participation in the Commonwealth System is that Pitt is assigned a role to play in the State's Master Plan for Education, and that future funding arrangements are made in accordance with the State's objectives. In times of tight money, efficiency is the cry heard 'round the state, and so faculty Productivity measures which are based on the number of student credit hours taught has made many teachers uncomfortable. In addition to the tendency of such measures to encourage larger class-sizes for increased output, there is a great deal of pressure on Pitt to become the senior college (serving primarily upperclass students) for Western Pennsylvania, and to de-emphasize underclass education. Beyond Pitt's role in a new State Plan, there are a number of new financing proposals being talked about to aid higher education. However, the current crush being experienced by private schools indicates that any new State resources will be aimed primarily at helping out the private sector so as not to multiply the already rising demand for publicly-subsidized education. One possible bright spot for Pitt is that the State may assume the costs of special programs dealing with disadvantaged and minority students, thus providing Pitt with a rather large measure of budgetary relief. The state-related role further indicates that enrollment will increase slightly (around 2%) for about the next five years, and that then it will level off. The proportion of students involved in graduate and professional education, currently about Vi, will remain so in the future. Before the advent of the 18-year old vote, one could make a fairly decent argument that tuition increases were a subtle form of taxation without representation. Students were paying money; the amount of money paid was determined largely by the State Legislature; but, most students could not vote for State Legislators. Without stretching this argument too far. it becomes apparent that the budget is now fundamentally a political issue, and that it is far removed from the University community. If anyone has any questions concerning how the University of Pittsburgh spends its money, or why a certain program was cut, discussions need no longer be held in the Common Facilities Auditorium, the Commons Room, or the Chancellor's Office, and administrators or trustees need not be present. except for ceremony. All efforts directed at changing things should be addressed to Harrisburg. §LMVUVr� o� nnucKM ,v,l Mr � . jh political attitudes towards students students and lax faculty members are favorite campaign issues with many politicians. The American people, not fully aware of what is actually taking place on campuses across the country, consider unrest among students the nation's number two problem. Studies of today's college scene, however, have shown that figures have been greatly exaggerated and often the observations made by right and left wing politicians miss the point entirely. Revolutionaries and terrorists, the so-called academic society as envisioned by many rightists, are said to be responsible for all the problems of the United States. Actually, the violent university students make up only a fraction of one percent of the student population and they are confined only to a small minority of campuses. One point, though, must be clarified. Many students of the past four years share the same ideas as the “violent sector”. The ideas and goals in themselves are not violent. The association of the two is only a profiteering tactic of some politicians, like the President and Vice President. They contend that if some students ascribe to a philosophy and are violent in asserting it, then anyone who believes that philosophy is violent. This same reasoning can be 'eversed and used to brand anyone with any nationalistic feeling ( America, love it or leave it”) as Hitleristic, for Hitler used violence or his nationalistic goals. It is ironic, though, that student violence which is confined to property take over and damage as its goals is often countered by the silent majority , middle America, hard hat personal violence. In the Oakland area, with two major universities, it is not uncommon for a student with long hair to be bloodily rehabilitated by a good American who opposes student violence. The point being made here is not that non-students are more violent, the violent ones are always a small few, but, that student property violence is more greatly feared and reacted to than the physical violence which arises out of intolerance. Tolerance for the beliefs of others, after all, is American. The question now becomes, does one condemn the academic community for ideals possessed by many students. This leads to the age-old human reaction of fearing those who are different either in appearance or thought. In this respect, 1971 is no different than 1071. This kind of fear is evident in the actions of many politicians who favor the exclusion of potential radicals from the campus, ignoring the fact that protesters or involved students” also tend to be the best students, the thinkers, the questioners, and the concerned members of the campus society. At Pitt there were no police-student confrontations (except for a panty raid in 1968), burnings, or rock throwing. The only forceful activities were confined to specific academic and social issues. In 1969, a two-day Free University took place in Common Facilities which was eventually recognized by the administration. Also in 1969, black students spent the night in the computer center to emphasize their demands. Other activities were in the form of rallies, mass meetings, and conferences, all of which were tacitly supported by faculty and administrators. Higher education has long been a scapegoat for the nations problems and a target for the attacks of politicians. The results have been cries of oppression by many students and this reinforces the political accusations. Perhaps what is really at fault on all sides is the great American fear of plots, takeovers, subversion and insurrection. From the perspective of one side the communists are taking over and it appears to the other side that the fascists are in the lead. It seems, though, that everyone is oblivious to what really took over — hysteria. election recess A t the June 1970 meeting of the Faculty Senate of the University of Pittsburgh, a resolution was passed setting up a two-day political recess for the November, 1970 general election. The day before election day and election day were to be set aside as school holidays (to be made up during the reading period at final exam time) for students to actively participate in election campaigns of their choice. As a part of the resolution, a University Citizenship Information Center was to be initiated to facilitate participation and to have available information on candidates and the electoral process. — The resolution was a direct result of the incidents at Kent State and Jackson State. Student demonstrations not only were proving to be frustrating but dangerous to the demonstrators. Many students were concerned that, in general, the political process was not working and specifically, that the involvement of the United States in Indochina was disastrous. In the spring of 1970 students on many campuses throughout the country felt that the most VOTE DEMOCRATIC ftARTINO REPRESENTATIVE h IN THE £«ral assembly LEGISLATIVE DISTRICT W .URN LEVER 6-0 Pmartino VOTING PL; ational way to change the politics nd policies of the country was to ecome directly involved in political ampaigns, rather than bringing iressure on public officials through lemonstrations. In this context, Pitt long with other schools across the ountry passed resolutions institut-ig political recesses and political iformation centers. On October 12, 1970 the Citizen-hip Information Center at the Univ-rsity of Pittsburgh opened. On Jovember 2 and 3 classes were can-elled throughout the University ✓ith exception of several profes-ional and graduate schools and in ie School of Nursing where stu-ents had voted in a referendum ot to participate in the recess. While the Citizenship Information Center will continue during the 1971-1972 year, the recess held in November 1970 may be the only such recess ever held on the Pitt campus. The number of students to participate in the recess is not conclusive, but in general students did not seem particularly interested in any campaign on any level - gubernatorial, senatorial or congressional, the major races in 1970. Two surveys taken following the recess give some indication of student participation. One taken in eight political science classes on Wednesday, November 4, among 286 respondents showed that 24% did some work during the fall campaign while only 18% worked during the election recess. In this sample, 70% of those who worked, worked 25 hours or less in the campaigns they were involved in. In a questionnaire sent out by the Citizenship Information Center at the end of November to a random sample of students from the student directory (147 respondents) showed that 8.8% of these students participated in the election campaigns. Reasons given for not participating were: 1. Too busy with school work — 37% 2. Lack of information — 12.6% 3. Disinterested in candidates running - 11.9% 49% said they were registered to vote and 21% specifically said they would register when they were old enough or if the law changed. Of the students who were registered 79% said they had voted in the November election. In the CIC questionnaire students were asked their opinion of the recess. 39% said the recess should be continued, 32% said the recess should not be continued, and 26.5% did not have any opinion. In early spring, 1971, the Faculty Senate again began to discuss the recess. The Student Affairs Committee of the Senate was asked to investigate the recess and report back to the full Senate. Under the auspices of the Student Affairs Committee, the Citizenship Information Center conducted a referendum on March 10 in a random sample of eleven o'clock undergraduate classes. Of 487 respondents, 55% felt that there should be no recess; 16% felt a one day recess should be held; and 29% felt the policy of a two day recess should be continued. Because of the March 10 referendum, the results of the questionnaires following the election, and a general feeling that the recess had not been particularly successful on June 14, 1971, the Faculty Senate voted to discontinue any election recess. r.s.u. T ne Revolutionary Socialist Union came into existence in the autumn of 1%9, originally (since the summer of l%8) having been a chapter of the Students for a Democratic Society. National SDS had splintered into several irreconcilable factions — with none of which Pitt members could identify — and ties were severed from the national organization. A traumatic confrontation with members of the SDS Weathermen faction, and active participation in the tumultuous struggle of the Pittsburgh Black Construction Coalition, forced this handful of activists to work out a more serious outlook in relation to theory, organizational structure, and general activity. Initially, there had been much groping and uncertainty, some spontaneous and rag-tag (yet thoroughly peaceful and legal) chasing after military, CIA, and corporate recruiters on campus, a few miserably organized rallies, and the production of many thousands of little-read leaflets. But RSU members came to play important roles in the local grape boycott of the Farmworkers' Union, in campus support for the Hospital Worker's strike, and in certain anti-war and women's liberation activities. RSU also played an important role in the flurry of activity and the broad-based student co- DEFEND 'A«rs RICH THE nwi nurftiao ANY TIME J MORE ft MOW eaui t more STOP RACtS THE BOSSES EA®0 lation stimulated by the University financial crisis of 1970. With respect to the larger context within which the University exists, RSU members argued that the social and political structure of the United States was largely determined by the need of the largest corporations to preserve the system of reverse welfare capitalism that presently (obtains.) Asserting that such an economic dictatorship made full political democracy impossible, RSU maintained that social problems in America could never be overcome within such a framework. American resources should be used to meet the needs of the people, to eradicate hunger and sickness, and to wipe out all forms of poverty racism, and oppression; but the dynamics of the American economy were diverting resources into other channels which were more profitable for the corporations. The well-being of all Americans, they believed, did not depend on the corporations, but instead upon the industrial technology and on the labor of America's skilled, semi-skilled, and unskilled workers in the blue-collar and white-collar sectors (making up over 83% of the labor force). Unsolved social problems resulted in growing oppression and discontent, and this was leading to the growth of social struggles on the part of the working people, the poor and unemployed, black people and other minorities, women, students and youth, etc. Members of the RSU believe that socialists should support and participate in such struggles, at the same time agitating for a view which linked all of the struggles to each other and called for people's control (instead of corporate control) of the economy. Hopefully, major portions of the various social movements would ultimately merge into a powerful socialist movement. On the basis of this outlook, RSU members engaged in the activities already mentioned plus others: distributing anti-war leaflets at factory gates in the aftermath of the invasion of Cambodia; visiting the picket lines of the United Auto Workers during the General Motors strike during the autumn of 1970, and disseminating information on campus in support of that strike; sponsoring, with the Young Workers Liberation League, a large and successful defense rally for the persecuted Black Communist Angela Davis; unsuccessfully trying to persuade the Pitt Student Government through a petition campaign to publicly investigate rising tuition costs at the University; supporting the lettuce boycott of the United Farmworkers' Union; and, organizing a well-attended and lively debate between RSU and the conservative Young Americans for Freedom. RSU placed great emphasis on education. A number of columns and letters were submitted to the Pitt News, two interesting pamphlets were produced (The Evolution of SDS, and The University in Society: A Critique and Program). A weekly literature table was maintained, and an ambitious films-and-speakers program was presented. Among those who spoke were: Philip Foner, noted labor historian; Edward Boorstein, formerly an economist for Cuba's revolutionary government; Black Communist leader Charlene Mitchell; Black Trot- skyist spokesman Paul Boutelle; the widely-known Marxist economists and editors of the Monthly Review Paul Sweezy and Harry Magdoff; Hal Draper, author of Berkeley: The New Student Revolt, and The Two Souls of Socialism; pacifists Ron and Trudi Young, who had recently travelled to Viet Nam; James Weinstein, socialist author; Paul Buhle, editor of Radical America; and Dr. George Haggar, an authority on Arab revolutionary movements. There was also a panel of local trade unionists, and a platform was provided for electoral candidates of the Socialist Labor Party and the Socialist Workers Party. There were still other activities, but by the winter of 1971 the natural pattern of University life - people graduating, moving out of town, and becoming absorbed in academic and personal pursuits - had brought the organizations membership down from thirty dues-paying members (in early 1970) to no more than eight activists. Yet certain RSU members were able to make important contributions to the People's Peace Treaty campaign and other peace and freedom activities. The continued vitality of RSU depends now upon an influx of new members. Governed by a rigorous internal democracy, with room for a wide range of differences among its membership, the organization can only be what it has always been — what its members choose to make it. Irrespective of its future, there can be little doubt that the Revolutionary Socialist Union has not only contributed to the vitality of campus life, but has also - more modestly, unfortunately - contributed to the struggle against war and injustice. Cynics frequently point out, since the Socialist Revolution hasn't occurred, groups like RSU are obviously absurd and irrelevant. Similar jibes were aimed at the Sons and Daughters of Liberty in 1771, but five years later, the cynics were eating their words. Let us see what the future brings. y.a.f. T khe University of Pittsburgh Chapter of Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) was founded in the spring of 1%9. It grew out of an organization known as Students for Conservative Action. The founding members of that first YAF group believed that something more than a study group was sorely needed at Pitt. Obviously, the first need of a university (or of any society) is for ORDER. It is impossible for a university plagued by constant disruptions to grow and flourish. Columbia has certainly taught us that. Hence, to prevent disruption in the short run, Pitt YAF has obtained an attorney who will take appropriate legal action against the guilty parties in time of disruption. In the past few years, several successful suits, notably in the states of New York and Florida, have been brought by students against either disrupting campus groups or incompetent and lax administrators. Beyond the short run, however, Pitt YAF is extremely concerned about the QUALITY of education the students are getting. Perhaps the greatest cause of campus unrest has been the fact that students realize that their college degree is being cheapened by relaxed academic standards, and therefore will be worth less (or about next to nothing) when they graduate. In the coming year, Pitt YAF hopes to make available scholarly articles on this question by such distinguished academics as Professor Steven Tonsar of the University of Michigan and Dr. Russell Kirk. In addition, Pitt YAF will be offering from time to time suggestions on how the state of higher education could be improved. The second major area of concern deals with issues that affect the lives of Pitt students. Two examples include the activities fee and the present student government. YAF believes that students should have some control over how much money is taken out of their pockets to support organizations that they have little or no interest in. Such zontrol is imperative this year. Likewise, the credibility of the present student government is ques-:ionable. There have been reports of .videspread corruption involving itudent funds and activity money. YAF intends to examine this ques-ion thoroughly. The final area of YAF activity at Jitt concerns the presentation of mother point of view — the conservative viewpoint. As with most of oday's universities, Pitt's atmo-•phere , including all of its components - teachers, books, and Zeit- geist” - leans heavily to the left. As a result, Pitt students obtain a distorted picture of anyone to the right of Allard Lowenstein YAF's position is to explain the alternatives to big government, social engineering and Isolationism. In the past this has consisted of distributing literature sponsoring speakers, and writing articles for the Pin News. YAF has helped sponsor such personalities as William F. Buckley, jr Dan lay, editor of YAF's monthly magazine The New Guard (in d debate with Leonard Weinglass co-counsel for the Chicago 7 ), Congressman Philip Crane, and free market economist Professor Hans F. Sennholz. Ihis year, Pitt YAF hopes to have a monthly program of speakers and films to acquaint Pitt students with the foundations of a free society. Pitt YAF has an outstanding calendar of events planned for this year. Students who believe that America 's w°dh saving and defending should seriously consider joining Young Americans for Freedom. Z jimcrilt MotM Or, mm % 4gniu l Thr Twtf wo P D drugs uring the past year the use of drugs by students on campus has become an increasingly controversial issue. Mounting public concern over the subject - largely the result of increased attention by national and local news media - has raised the hue and cry to well within the earshot of Harrisburg lawmakers (who are not known for their reticence on the issue). And one might rightly suppose that the University administration is no less concerned about the problem for all that's being said about it in the public forum. In view of so much discussion concerning the drug problem on our campus it seems important to first of all try to determine the extent to which drugs are in fact a problem at Pitt. To what degree have drugs become a part of campus life? What kinds of drugs are involved? Too often these important ancillary questions are dismissed in the public forum as dilatory or unnecessary. Yet if, as we are constantly reminded, it is important to place our views on other major national issues such as the Cambodian incursion or environmental pollution in perspective, is it not proper to do so when considering this equally significant issue? Indeed, only by so doing can we arrive at a true assessment of the drug problem at Pitt and how it relates to various segments of the University community and the general public.

This was due in the main to a government crackdown on cannabis and amphetamine drug traffic. As the cost of grass went up, so did the availability of pills - i.e. hallucinogens, amphetamines and barbiturates. Whether due to the mere proliferation of the drug culture itself, the excitement of violating drug prohibition, or other factors, the use of these mild (this adjective will be qualified presently) drugs grew increasingly pervasive. Which is only to say that no longer was the euphoric aroma of burning cannabis confined to hidden conclaves within the towers, but was now to be noticed spicing the equally distinctive Ddor of the exerted human body in ocal locker rooms or thickening the already near opaque cloud of nico-:ine smoke commonly used as a iubstitute for air in the social rooms af Bayard street. The point is that by his time (1969-70) the ranks of Pitt )ot smokers had greatly multiplied ind diversified since the early Tower ] days, drawing its numbers from a irtual cross-section of the Univer-.ity community: Greeks, jocks, some acuity, and even a few administra- door or another. Now, at this juncture an important distinction must be made between relatively mild narcotics such as pot, hashish and certain types of speed and the so-called hard drugs such as heroin, cocaine, and methadone (the heaviest speed trip). This distinction is not to be taken as a polemic for or against the danger and or desirability of either the former or latter group, but only to indicate that hard drug users on campus amount to a tiny minority of the drug consumer population. And it is not unreasonable to assume that exact statistical analysis, if available, would show that the percentage of smack (heroin) freaks in the University community might be less but would certainly not exceed that of extra-University social group of a comparable age bracket such as white or blue collar workers. Thus far we have not said much about the various types of speed which along with the cannabis drugs and hallucinogens seem to keep 85% to 90% of Pitt heads happy. Speed (usually the milder Benzedrine or Dexedrine) is used extensively at mid-term and final examination time to aid students in their last ditch attempt to cram 14 weeks of material into two or three days. Interestingly, many speeders who otherwise claim abstention and personal condemnation of drug use will rationalize their use of amphetamine as being necessary for the good of their education. They are all too willing to make an ethical exception in the name of the all-mighty Q.P.A., but are unwilling to consider the possibility that drug use for others might have as deep a learning significance in a way totally distinct from tests, grades and competition. But, our purpose here is not to arrive at a moral judgement on the use of drugs, mild or hard, even if it were, we would first have to answer our original question, namely: to what extent is drug usage on campus a social problem or sickness, if you would prefer? Well, given the facts that a) very, very few people (if anybody) at Pitt have O.D.'d on smack recently, and b) that virtually everybody seems to remain healthy enough to hop the first plane, train, bus or donkey cart leaving Pittsburgh after the Winter term (true, an isolated case of Blacl Lung may turn up here and there a a result of breathing our ) L air) one is still left with a big smogg question mark as to the drug prob lem at Pitt.

Internally, there is little, if any, agreement as to what should be considered acceptable or unacceptable behavior. As long as large numbers of people hold different values with respect to how they should behave, a rule designed to hold everybody to the same line will have little public support. As long as large numbers of people express different modes of behavior, the possibility of enfoicing any rule is greatly reduced. Externally, an urban university cannot be separated from the streets of the city of which it is a part, nor can it shut itself off from the larger world of communications to which it is integrally tied. These dimensions serve to highlight what may be considered the two most critical “security problems at the University of Pittsburgh, and the role of any administration - of which the Campus Police are a significant part - in attempting to deal with them. The problems are street violence and drugs, and the fundamentally urban nature of the campus renders them insoluble by administrative action. The Campus Police exemplify as clearly as possible the administration ideal of the service agent. Policemen, like administrators, are there to help students and faculty when called upon to respond. Their function is primarily to maintain order and there is little else they can do except plan their strategy for the impending riot or mass arrest. This situation will remain as it is now so long as there are large numbers of people expressing widely different values and behaviors, and there is every reason to expect that this will be so. him- ft change ■ police Editor's Introduction: n 1968 the University adopted a Master Plan which outlined its physical growth tor the next seventeen years, and, while the University's arc hi tec ts worked very closely with the City of Pittsburgh and its Planning Department in drawing up the Plan, Pitt did not make any real effort to actively involve the surrounding Oakland community in the planning process. There was nothing illegal or even unusual about this omission - the University assumed that Oakland was being represented by the City, and this was a reflection of the urban political climate which existed in Pittsburgh and elsewhere during 1966 and 1967, which was when the planning was going on. Pitt did c all a meeting to which the Oakland community, through its Model Cities office, was invited, in order to present to them their finished proposal. f this time, there was no organized opposition to what the University wanted to do, and things began to move along. The acquisition of properties on which Pitt wanted to build took up most of 1968 and 1969, and in 1970 the University announced its inten- tion to proceed with its plans for the building of a Hillside Dormitory Complex, a Learning Research and Development Center (LRDC), and the demolition of Forbes Field and construction of Forbes Phase I (which included buildings for the Schools of Law and Education, and the Departments of the Social Sciences). However, Pitt ran into something which it was not really unprepared for, but which it deeply wished to avoid - a group of citizens who felt like protesting, and protesting with strength. Pitt was never secretive about its expansion plans - the point is that the plans were Pitt's and Pitt's alone. It is no longer appropriate for giant institutions, like universities, to deal solely with City Hall and then devour the people living around them. Community input into decision-making processes is now a vitally important urban political issue, and the current City administration is very sensitive to the need for communities to have a voice, at least, in what goes up and what comes down. The Pittsburgh City Planning Commission must approve everything that Pitt wants to build, and they have notified the University that they would not be receptive to any proposals unless the residents of Oakland got a chance to express themselves. It is an important change that people are listening, but a far more inifx)rtant change that Oakland has something to say. The Oakland community's new found strength and expressiveness derives largely from the concern a group of experts, primarily architects and community organizers, have shown for the area's future. Until someone could interpret what the long-range effects of the University's plans might be, and, more crucially, put forth an alternate proposal for development, Oakland residents had little hope of stopping or redirecting Pitt except by blocking the bulldozers when they came. Nobody wanted such a confrontation. The action of the Planning Commission led to a series of meetings attended by representatives of the University, the City, and residents of the Oakland community. One concern which pervaded the atmosphere was the question of who the group of Oakland residents, and in particular the group calling themselves Peoples Oakland, really represented. The University felt that these people were speaking only as individuals, and that no one present at the meetings could speak for the entire area. The City, which acted as the umpire during these negotiations (in addition to having their own vested interests), played a decisive role in settling this question by taking the position that whoever showed up to speak for Oakland would be considered legitimate, and that no more rigorous test need (or could) be applied to judge who was really representative of the whole. The University made its position clear at the beginning. The Hillside Dormitory Complex, the LRDC building, and the demolition of Forbes Field and construction of Forbes Phase I were non-negotiable. Everything else (there were Forbes Phases II, III, and IV, and a number of other plans) was open for discussion. The community disagreed. The Hillside Dorms was the first project to come under fire — at issue were the architectural and social impact of the originally planned high-rise structures upon the neighborhood, and the effect of large numbers of students and their cars upon existing traffic patterns. The result of this opposition was that a formerly non-negotiable University project was opened up for discussion, and architects representing Pitt and Peoples Oakland began meeting to plan something out together. While the University was able to accommodate the community's viewpoint on the dormitory issue, and the community did not think that the LRDC building would cause too much disruption, the University's desire to demolish Forbes Field and continue with the planned construction on that site generated and sustained a tremendous amount of controversy, and primarily for three reasons. Firstly, the planned construction would involve the removal of the homes of a number of residents living in the area. Secondly, the University planned to build a parking lot on Oakland Avenue, which would serve as a boundary between itself and the community. The community charged that the construction of this parking lot would increase the amount of traffic using the side streets of the neighborhood so much that the remaining residents would be forced to move out because their section would become noisier, more dangerous, and a much less pleasant place to live. Thirdly, and the reason which seemed to mean the most to the professional people involved, was that Forbes Field is the structure which separates the University from the surrounding community, and it is an architectural interface in that it borders on both worlds. The community felt that the stadium should not be torn down, and that it be rehabilitated into the kind of structure which would serve both the University and the people of Oakland, and act as a symbol of mutual respect and cooperation. The position of the University with respect to the demolition of Forbes Field and Phase I construction is largely determined by its own inertia. It is not that Pitt is evil, or that it thinks the Peoples Oakland proposal, especially the assertion that all of the University's planned expansion through 1965 can be accommodated within the existing boundaries, is not as good as its own scheme. It is rather that Pitt already has what it considers to be a good plan, and, perhaps more importantly, it has all the financing arrangements worked out. To delay much longer, or, to alter the plans, might possibly jeopardize such arrangements - the University simply feels it is too far committed to Forbes Phase I to back down. In addition, Pitt has been ordered by the City to either demolish the stadium or to make it safe, and to do this immediately because as it stands now, it is a hazard. For a school which is in debt and in a constant state of financial crisis, to secure Forbes Field is a relatively expensive thing. The City, in addition to attempting to manage this conflict, also has some thoughts floating around. The University of Pittsburgh is a tax-exempt institution, and the major local source of revenue is the property tax. For every additional piece of land Pitt gobbles up, that means less taxable property for the City government and the School District, and the City is also in a very tight financial squeeze. Therefore, the City may grant Pitt permission to expand only if an agreement is worked out by which the University pays back the City for the taxable property it takes away. Such, then, are some of the positions taken by and the pressures acting upon the three major groups concerned with the future plans of the University of Pittsburgh. Whether or not Forbes Field is demolished depends on the success or failure of the community in finding someone to buy the stadium and develop it (he way they want before the University rips it down. If the community can do so, (hen Pitt will rent the space it needs from the people of Oakland. Pitt has become inseparably involved with the people around it, and the ivory tower has come to learn that community relations is a very complex affair. One of the most important (dements in these relationships is the way in which the participants perceive each other, and it is possible to understand these perceptions by consulting people who are outside the University, but must deal with it directly. The article that follows, then, is written by the members of Peoples Oakland, and it is presented in the belief that all the members of the University of Pittsburgh community can benefit from knowing what the people around them are thinking and feeling, and how this institution is affecting them. university expansion and community relations w w what is it about a neighborhood that people should want to preserve it? Perhaps, most simply, it can be a good place in which to live. This does not necessarily mean modern houses, new schools, or well-groomed parks. Instead, a good neighborhood is one in which the residents feel secure - they know that the homes they have worked for belong to them, to be cared for and enjoyed, and that the streets are comparatively safe. It is an environment in which people are comfortable — an area that is stable, familiar, friendly, convenient, and varied. To the permanent residents of the area, Oakland is such a neighborhood. They have found it a good place in which to live and raise families. True, some of the houses need repair, playgrounds are scarce, and the traffic situation is bad. Still, the area provides good living spaces at reasonable prices, combined with a rich network of interpersonal relationships that have grown up among long-term residents. In addition, Oakland has always had a unique diversity, providing not only a patchwork of racial and ethnic groups, young people, families and elder citizens; but, also it offers a mixture of residential, institutional, and commercial facilities. This variety, both in people and physical I structure, is, ideally, what a city is all about. The University of Pittsburgh certainly plays a vital role in the Oakland community, although its existence in the area has always been somewhat of a mixed blessing. On the one hand, it has a beneficial effect on the local job market and income level, on commercial enterprise, and on the cultural development of the area - as well as offering, to some degree. University-related expertise in such fields as health, elementary education, etc. On the other hand, the University has also been a winning competitor for the minimal amount of usable land, housing, overburdened recreational facilities, and circulation. It also means that fully one-third of the area's population is transient -uncommitted to the ideals of an urban neighborhood. Finally, the University's Master Plan for expansion is presently threatening the very existence of the Oakland residential sector. Peoples Oakland, a residents' organization which emerged in response to this threat, is attempting to give citizens a voice in the planning of their own community. It is also an effort to preserve Oakland as a neighborhood in which a variety of people, buildings, and purposes can co-exist. The effects of the University Master Plan on Oakland could well be disastrous. Imagine, for a moment, Oakland as the University has planned it. Stretching along Forbes Avenue, to Oakland Avenue, down to Bates Street, and in between, large white concrete buildings, enclosing well-kept concrete promenades. Think of the Hillman Library multiplied by ten, one next to the other, facing the delicate houses across the street. Now, if you were to walk along the streets as they presently exist, you would see a crazy mixture of Forbes Field, houses in dozens of styles, stores, gardens with flowers, restaurants. . . . The demolition of this area is the most obvious neighborhood loss. The mosl destructive effects, however, are the more subtle ones, which are already beginning to prey on the Oakland neighborhood. To begin with, any sign of demolition in the area will tell the local residents that they have lost - that they cannot possibly stand against such a large institution. They will have no assurance about the security of their property, and will lose what little faith they had in the joint planning process monitored by the city. This will permit GSA (General State Authority) to buy up properties more easily, as residents will try to make the best of a situation which they think can end only in their being forced out, with or without adequate compensation. Furthermore, residents, expecting to be forced to leave soon, will defer maintenance on their property. This condition is presently developing. The resulting instability will encourage onlookers and the city to favor demolition. Several public servants and editorial voices have advanced the alarmingly destructive view that the local residential area is visibly substandard and the Forbes Field is an ugly, dirty, old hovel infested by rats, and that both should be torn down as soon as possible since they are in the way of progress, better education, jobs, etc. These people do not seem to acknowledge that the deterioration of the area is almost entirely due to the residents' uncertainty about their future and their unwillingness to invest in renovation while that uncertainty exists. It also needs to be recognized that the every!hing-old-must-go view of the world has produced the Lower Hill, the East Liberty renewal, the North Side Allegheny Center and, in the immediate area, large tracts of scarred, barren landscape, which were intended tor University recreation. Security problems in the vicinity of these playing fields prevent their use, and have resulted in escalated security measures. If long-term resident families are forced to move out of the central Oakland area, similar security problems c an be expected to result. Finally, the increased instability in the residential neighborhood will encourage private speculators to move in and purchase properties for higher density housing with luxury rental scales - an already visible occurrence. These developers can afford to take financial risks that the residents cannot, and they stand to make such a good profit in a short time that even the prospect of demolition in a few years does not deter them. This quick-renovation process, welcomed by local government for the added revenues yielded by rising property assessments, results in pushing other long-term residents out. These residents will leave either voluntarily ( the place isn't what it used to be ), or involuntarily, as speculators evict old tenants prior to renovation. The incoming transient population which will occupy these houses will not have the commitment or interest to try and prevent further institutional expansion. What, in all this, are the implications for the University itself? Essentially, universities are for students. Most students at the University are at a critical point in their lives, where they are trying to discover how they are going to fit into a very complex, fiercely competitive, and, to many, extremely hostile society, offering only selected avenues of success. Since these prescribed avenues are unpalatable to many, the University should offer opportunities to deal with the resulting conflicts. In order to accomplish this, we have been told over and over that the university must become relevant. It is extremely difficult for a student in the social sciences, who is learning how groups of people with different skills and interests benefit or hinder each other's lives, to come to terms with the knowledge that, by his being at the university, he might well be contributing to the destruction of a real-life community. Or, to put it more bluntly, those same people who are teaching him about peaceful coexistence, etc., are pushing for the mass demolition of a neighborhood in order to expand their departments. University departments must realize that society is not sanctioning and paying them merely to exist for their own good; rather, they are there to help young people see the various life styles open to them, and contribute toward each student's becoming a constructive member of society. Many students are actually at the university for reasons other than to study abstract ideas, i.e. to avoid the draft or get a degree. For many, the university period is an emotional transition from being supported as a child to becoming a self-supporting, functioning adult within society. The type of campus life which revolves solely around lectures, dormitories, student plazas and the like, is not providing the student with the tools to deal with what is going to be done after graduation. Being realistic about these things, most abstract intellectual discussion, lectures, etc. are of little use to the student, unless one has the opportunity to experience their effects in the context of every-day life — in a normal community of people who have discovered how to cope. For years, this has been stated as the main advantage of an urban university, where abstract ideas are placed into the nucleus of society. What use is that idea if the presence of the university is so parasitic as to destroy the urban context that makes it worthwhile? It is obvious that the mutal benefits to be derived from a university in a city depend on a delicate balance in the functioning of these two parts. In other words, the relationship must be one of symbiosis, and this depends on a working interface more than anything else. While the need for more student housing, teaching space, and parking is self-evident, the University's solution to these problems is, at best, conventional, and, more likely, self-defeating. A plan such as Forbes Phase I, which projects a Law School, Social Sciences complex, and plus graduate school of Educa- tion (to be joined by additional graduate and professional schools in later phases), can only increase the sense of unreality and frustration that so many students are faced with. The buildings themselves, with their forbidding concrete backs to the community and sheltered student courtyards within, symbolize all too painfully the process of education which is occurring. Peoples Oakland, however, feels that there are other viable alternatives - that the University of Pittsburgh can choose, instead, to create a symbiotic relationship with its urban community, and begin healing the growing rift between academia and the rest of society. Oakland, though small and perhaps insignificant, seems a good place to begin. The Peoples Oakland proposals are based on the ideal of harmonious coexistence through mutual consideration and perhaps, a bit of daring. Instead of tearing down Forbes Field, we said, why not turn it into a symbol of coexistence: a place where community activities, university functions, and commercial enterprises could work side by side. All around the building, open arches would welcome people inside to shops, the farmers market, and a park on the old Pirate playing field. The non-commercial ground floor area might house daycare centers, a youth center, and other community-oriented functions. The upper two stories could be adapted for a multitude of university functions — from classrooms and offices to student housing units. Students and community would have a chance to mingle and talk as they growth ■ university ex| ansion community relations moved naturally between classes, stores, meetings, and restaurants, or took part in mutually-planned events and festivals. Of course, the renvoation of Forbes Field would not supply the University with all the space it claimed necessary for Forbes Phase I. We therefore proceeded to consider how the University's space demands could be met, and with minimal damage to the community. Discovering that 42% of the existing campus is open space and usable for building (much of this is presently parking space), the following alternatives were suggested: I. There are a series of sites north of Fifth Avenue which are presently used for parking. Assuming that the | arking is replaced, these sites are suitable for University buildings because of their (woximity to the existing facilities. There may be some land acquisition problems, but it is difficult to lustify buying up residential property just because these owners have less power than the owners of these more suitable site . 2. The site between Sennot Street and Forbes Avenue, next to Common Facilities could be develop'd as a university building with second-level bridge connections to the dormitories, Hillman Library, and the upper levels of Forbes Field, with its potential classrooms and housing above commercial and community facilities. The Law School, as presently planned, could be built above the present bleacher section, with the outfield as a park, continuous with Schenley Plaza. There is enough room on these sites alone to build all of Forbes Phase I. plus 500 units of housing. I. The lawns around the Cathedral of Learning could be developed in a manner similar to the original architect's plans. He visualized small courts surrounded by low buildings, in place of the large fields surrounded by traffic, which presently exists. There would be more than enough space for Forbes Phase I in such buildings. It was determined that through maximal use of existing open space, all university expansion planned through 1985 (3 million square feet), could be placed within the present boundaries at an average building height of only three stories. While a few present green areas might be used for building, total recreational space would be increased by 50% In addition, an alternate parking proposal was presented which would both spare the residential area from a devastating traffic increase, and meet University parking needs. The University's decision to locate parking for Forbes Phase I on Oakland Avenue made a lot of sense when the Oakland Crosstown and Bates Street Bypass were supported by the City for immediate implementation. However, as they cannot lx implemented for at least ten years, all traffic must go through the residential area (causing more people to move out and the area to run down quickly). What Oakland really needs is immediately implement able solutions to the traffic problems, rather than long-range plans. There is a bypass already availaWe through Schenley Park, which could easily lx used for access, if parking were located under the outfield of Forbes Field, under Schenley Plaza, under the Cathedral lawn, and under the fxesent Syria Mosque and Masonic Temple parking lots. These areas would provide room for 45CX) cars. Unfortunately, the University has not felt it necessary to take community needs — or even community survival - into consideration. Forced into some negotiations with the community by the City Planning Department, the university has failed to treat the community as anything but a very bad joke. The present conflict between the Oakland community and its large institutions has potentially at least four solutions: 1. The institutions may dominate, and effectively eliminate Oakland as a residential area, as the early urban renewal plans of the 1960s suggest. This situation will result if the institutions' present expansion plans are carried out. wr 77 We -Joilcti' rt rvd easy.

The citizens might drive the University and other institutions out of Oakland; this seems neither likely nor desirable. 3. A boundary may be drawn over which the University may not step. This solution is favored by some citizens and the University. However, it is more like an armistice than a peace treaty. It is favored by citizens for pragmatic reasons (it will end the conflict and settle the question), or out of fear (without it the total domination of Point I will result), and out of the mistaken belief that such a boundary will be stable in the future. It is also favored by institutions for pragmatic reasons: it permits them to undertake their current expansion in a peaceful setting and to postpone crossing the bigger bridges of the future until they get there. However, this solution is not, in fact, a stable one because of the dynamics of institutional growth, which require increasing centralization, bureaucratization, and space. Beyond this, it is difficult for a home owner to effectively oppose the provision of more education, health, or culture, especially when these institutions allegedly serve the entire Pittsburgh region, or all of Pennsylvania. Finally, the distribution of power between the institutions and the home owners is not exactly equal, and the results of this inequality are fairly predictable: the boundary will change when the more powerful party wants it changed. 4. The fourth approach involves a fundamental rethinking of the relationship between service institutions and the community in which are imbedded. It suggests that learning does not take place only in university classrooms; that healing does not occur only in hospitals; growth ■ university expansion community relations and, that appreciation of culture is not limited to museums or symphony halls. It involves a change in both program and process such that there is an intermingling of institutions and community. Substantial parts of the programs and services of the institutions would be carried out in the communities, and citizens would participate in and contribute to the development of the institutions. This would entail institutional design which was open and readily accessible, both physically and socially, to the members of the community. It might also involve a change of scale such that institutional structures and organizations were not dominating and overpowering with respect to residential activities and neighborhoods. Multiple-use structures would be favored, and utilization of existing buildings would be encouraged. If the community and institutions could agree to develop harmoniously, then a genuine urban interface could be established. This interface would not be a physical boundary, since the parties would not see themselves as separate, but as parts of a growing whole. It must be apparent that of the four possibilities, we strongly favor the last. The first two would be illusory victories, which would only create sterile institutions or stagnant communities. The third is only a temporary solution, and the fear and mistrust would be allayed only briefly, as the present situation clearly indicates. Only a genuine and cooperative effort to rethink our joint problems is going to result in a pleasant and joyous place for people to live and work. growth ■ university expansion community relations )akland, the land of fun and sun, where everyday is a holiday, and students can enjoy a resort-like atmosphere wherever they choose to live.” Unfortunately, the Oakland referred to here is in California. At Pitt's Oakland, the only comparable aspects to resort living are in the rental rates and dorm fees that the student pays. Regardless of rent or realty company, living conditions for apartment students throughout Oakland are predictable. Among these are surly caretakers, leaking radiators, and troops of innocuous crawling things. Additional features include treading the luxury of sodden indoor-outdoor carpet; enjoying a single window which faces a wall; discovering your electric bill includes the laundry facilities for the entire building; losing your safety deposit because the oven blew up while you were at class ... ad nauseum . . . Dorm life could easily be compared to living in a large unluxurious hotel under the American plan. Identical furnishings are to be found in all rooms, and this uniformity, especially in the Towers, becomes extremely monotonous. Rooms derive their individual identities solely from the decorations. Some students who are particularly creative can almost hide the fact that they are living in a piece of pie or a 50-year old building. The main difference between the apartment dwellers, the dorm dwellers, and the cave dwellers lies in the responsibilities. Purchasing and preparing food, general housekeeping, and facing monthly bills are included in the daily life of the apartment student. The dorm student need only plan far enough ahead to get to the cafeteria before it closes. The cave dweller had it best - no rent, no upkeep, no social rules, and whenever he got hungry he could go outside and club a dinosaur over the head. Unfortunately, Oakland lacks caves and dinosaurs, so that this life style cannot be offered. The comparisons between dorm and apartment life are enough to make anyone sick. First, there are rules. With the liberalization of dorm social rules, the only requirements for students are that they do not make too much noise, do not destroy limb or lumber, or break any civil laws. Apartment people have similar rules plus several others (like no more than five guests, no parties, and no roach killing with hammers) to act as fudge factors in the event ‘.hat the landlord wants to evict the student or keep the safety deposit. Service is also comparable. In the dorms students can scream for re pairs for weeks before a maintenance man stumbles into the room ind says: It's a half-hour to quitting :ime. I'll get it next month. Apartment students also have to scream ind threaten before the landlord ;ends over Lou, a retired shoe salesman who owns a screwdriver. The esults in both cases are the same . . learn to live without the repair. Dne added problem in the apartment is the bugs. When an exterminator finally comes (usually after a hreat of calling the Health Department) he ends up more of a diplomat than a killer. These roaches ive in the basement, they just come upstairs for meals and to watch T.V. Then there is the security, or the lack of it. Oakland apartments contain a smorgasbord of assorted locks and bolts. The walk also provides a means for studying various social problems, such as mugging, beating, molesting, exhibiting, and just plain folk out for an evening's fun of terrorizing students. The dorms also provide an opportunity for sociological and psychological studies. Some of Oakland's finest thieving operates in the dorms. In the time it takes to go to the bathroom and make tinkle, a stereo and a box of Aunt Tilly's cookies can disappear. Women have special problems, like things off the streets walking the floors for a glimpse of flesh. Often, the best way for a woman resident to meet a sick man is to take a shower late at night. He will be the audience. Dope pushers in South Oakland? You bet. Dope pushers in the Tower B lobby? You bet. But the greatest similarity between the dorms and the apartments lies in the exploitative rates and fees. The Big Three landlords in Oakland are an enterprising trio. Two of them make it clear that if one disgruntled tenant isn't satisfied with his inferior domicile, there remains a throng of eager customers. The third will cajole prospective victims with a hearty handshake and a slap on the back. A healthier relationship and a better deal can be established with private owners in the area . . . provided, of course, that you either wear a bra, have short hair, and are not Black, Oriental, or Indian. The irony of off-campus housing at Pitt, though, is that despite the inordinate rents that student tenants pay, it's cheaper in the long run than the dorm charges. Pitt's housing ranks among the top ten highest priced in the country. Administrators cite the rising costs of maintaining present services as the cause. They also cite the occurrence of Venus in line with Mercury as the cause. But, in spite of these minor problems, living at Pitt has provided a multitude of fond memories . . . Remember the time we clobbered a rat to death with a croquet mallet? . . . Remember the time the refrigerator decided to shut off over Thanksgiving and defrost the $i0 worth of meat? . . . Remember the guy who attacked me in the elevator? . . . T khere was a legend in the dorms of Pitt, that when the sun went down and the moon came up (owww) and the clock struck curfew (gong! gong!) that weird and treacherous creatures of the night stalked the campus (stomp . . . stomp . . . stomp). There were also evil spirits that would take over the minds of young women and men and completely strip them of all moral fiber (screech!). For that reason men and women were separated at curfew hour and the women were locked securely into their chambers. But evil spirits being what they were had no specific hours of work and would sometimes creep in the students' souls before curfew (gasp!) and cause them to do gross things. There was only one defense against this force of evil. That was the existence of certain social rules and resident assistants to enforce them (yay!). They were that thin line between morality and chaos. But even with rules and curfews and resident assistants, grossness did occur (booo!). For instance, the door was to be opened the width of a book, and a light must be on and the flesh was not to be exposed. But often the devil himself would be at work within the students, stretching and twisting their moral pillars. It was not uncommon for the door to be closed upon a matchbook with the black light turned on, and flesh meeting flesh underneath the garments. In 1969, though, the Men's Dorm Council and Women's Housing Board met and decided to take positive action to rid the campus of the evilness. Perhaps they saw the annual spring rites in which hundreds of students participate in chants for silk and female undergarments, as a yearly release and evil spirit chaser. Having participated in one such rite (for purely academic purposes) I witnessed the mass of students turned savage as they chased the devil from themselves. One rather huge brassiere fell at my feet. Curious as to the motives of its being hurled into the quad, I sought to finds its owner for the next six months. This year there was no “rite of spring , indicating that the students' souls have already been sufficiently purged. But, anyhow, changes were instituted and with the devil seemingly gone, doors were allowed to be secured with representatives of both sexes inside probably studying; and they could be there all night. The hero here is housing ■ life styles democracy, tor it was decided that each living unit should decide its own visitation hours and curfews. As a result, most dorms and dorm houses chose 24 hour open houses and, naturally, no curfews. But one might ask if voting on bedtimes and visitation might be stretching democracy too far. The R.A. has now become more of an administrator and information source. Their duties are not to uphold a moral standard, but to watch the mainenance, keep peace, help out in emergencies and try to be a friend. Campus Report on the Occurrence of Crossness (excerpt from page I.J8, paragraph 8). — After the eviction of the evil grossness-causing forces from the Pitt Campus, the social rules were relaxed. That was the test; if more grossness occurred, then evil still existed. Upon completion of our research (by barging into random rooms across the campus) we found no appreciable increase. As a matter of fact, with the knowledge of the new freedom, students felt no need to get in as much time together as possible, and would say goodnight much earlier than with curfew. So our story ends. Evil has lost once again to open-mindedness and the expansion of the university experience. housing ■ lire styles i% v imrrm housing t frf'rua r ■ irmam housing ■ lire styles co-ed dorms T Jkhe living quarters and rules of conduct for college dormitories have traditionally been modeled after the medieval monastic system: long halls leading to tiny rooms with simple furniture; a housemother or superior hired to serve as a positive moral influence; and a Bible of rules that listed who was allowed where, when, with whom, and to do what. Before the late 1960's, it seemed as though the twentieth century would not disturb the system. Enter Pitt. In an attempt to create alternative university living patterns, the Men's Dorm Council, in 1969, proposed a coed dorm set-up more integrated than Tower C (with men only on the first three floors). After meetings with the Women's Housing Board and the Housing Office, the McCormick Hall proposal was formulated. The reasons for selecting McCormick Hall were based on the convenient suite arrangement, since in this building men and women could live on the same floor in alternating suites. Displacement was minimal as only those girls who wanted to return to male suites” experienced any kind of inconvenience. There was almost no conversion cost in reorganizing the dorm as each suite is completely self-contained with bathrooms and kitchens. There were problems, however, with the McCormick set-up. It seems that men do not like large-group suite arrangements. Instead, they prefer either one or two roommates, or privacy. Accordingly, the ideal co-ed arrangement would be on individual floors in the Towers with the single or double room arrangement. The major problem here would be the expense of separating the single bathroom facilities. Also, it might be necessary to divide the hall so the men can walk around in their jockey shorts. This, though, is not a great problem since most men choosing the co-ed floors would realize the need to compromise exhibitionist tendencies. It seems that many McCormick residents in its first co-ed year took the experience as no more than apartment living on the campus, but reluctant parents feared a collegiate Sodom and Gomorrah. At a Parents' Weekend seminar they questioned administrators about girls selling themselves in McCormick's halls and other co-ed myths. But the real results this year concern the de-emphasis of the traditional sex roles of college students and emphasized the students' individuality and uniqueness. Platonic relationships were more prevalent than romantic ones, as residents interacted without the formality of dating rituals. The creation of the co-ed dorm also necessitated certain changes in social rules. It seems the co-ed living arrangement implied a 24-hour open-house. The reason for this concerned the university right for members of each sex to visit at any hour. There could be no regulating this in McCormick, therefore, any person of any sex could visit any person, any sex. Understand? This, then, set a precedent for the entire university. As for the future, there are no plans to end McCormick, nor are there any to expand the coeducational pattern in existing facilities. Instead McCormick will be used to experiment with new ideas in university services such as separate placement and 24-hour counseling centers in the dorm itself. There is also hope that the students will continue to create their own services such as this year's dorm newspaper. But, perhaps, the most important testimony to the success of the co-ed dorm is the 54% rate of return, the highest on campus (and much of the loss that did occur was due to the graduating seniors). So, in a natural atmosphere of trust and acceptance, McCormick Mall is a new breed of dormitory -one emphasizing the humanity of the opposite sex. food service JL Ieven years ago when the Towers first opened, resident students received an hyper-acidic introduction to the culinary charms of Saga Food. Since its initiation on the Pitt campus, Saga food and its reputation have suffered a steady decline. The increasing distaste among students for Saga cuisine and a little politicking on the part of the Housing Office administrators culminated this year with a loss of contract by the much maligned food service. Similarly disenchanted, Chatham and Carlow College also terminated contracts with Saga. With the decision to fire Saga, the University was faced with selecting a new contract caterer to operate its food service which extends to both the boarding and non-boarding cafeterias, snack bars, and vending areas. Members of the University's Food Service Committee travelled to a variety of campuses across the country soliciting student opinions on the food services which had submitted bids. Serious consideration of the survey findings resulted in the selection of Szabo Food Service. Another important factor in the decision was the fact that the financial bid of Szabo proved much more attractive than the one offered by Saga. Where Saga intended to retain a 5% basic profit, Szabo agreed to a maximum 3% basic profit. Where Saga consented to deliver 50% of income beyond the 5% to the University, Szabo agreed to give the University 80% beyond the 3%. According to Szabo executives, the company's top priority is satisfactory service to its customers. The new food service has pledged to conduct two polls a year to find out which foods students prefer. Szabo has also committed itself to improving service to commuters by upgrading the Hunt Room and the Tuck Shop. Expansion of service in these areas will include the installation of Henny Penny fried chicken centers, in hopes of offering students the same vareity of choices available at fast-food restaurants on campus. Other palate pleasers include monthly spirit lifters , meals like a Hawaiian luau, which would be complete with appropriate decor and menu. Szabo executives are enthused at the prospect of serving students. Nothing humdrum about the company, they claim, which finds romance in a garbage pail. In the spring of 1970, a sub-committee of the Resident Food Service Committee began to survey other colleges and universities for the purpose of gathering ideas for a new food service proposal. It was discovered that larger, schools seem to lean towards a single option full board plan as op-oosed to a variety of meal ticket Drograms. Although a variety of meal tickets will be available to stu- dents this fall. Housing Director John Vrana has stated that foregoing the mandatory meal ticket for resident students, though possible sometime in the future, would not be feasible at present because of the difficulty the University would face in meeting overhead costs. A new option has been created for commuters - come fall, a meal ticket for dinner in the Towers seven nights a week may be purchased. The sub-committee survey also indicated a trend, especially among larger schools with increasing resident populations, towards the operation of a university food service, rather than the use of an outside contract caterer. Because of the decreased expense involved, there is a high degree of probability that Pitt will soon choose to operate its own facilities. Regardless of the projected excellence of Szabo food, the chances are that any marked difference between the two companies will be purely psychological. The facts remain that Szabo, working with the same facilities, staff and budget that Saga maintained, must feed a mass of 5000 students daily, and this makes any improvement in the quality of food highly improbable. So, if Szabo can make students feel they're getting their money's worth, through more special days, a pleasant atmosphere and friendlier service, the changing of the guard will have been a success. w justice ith the establishment of student judicial boards a few years ago, students assumed the ultimate responsibility for their own actions. Student judicial boards had existed for some years, but none of them guaranteed the rights of students as citizens. In the fall of 1968, the first student demands for procedural rights were heard when the creation of a new Men's Residence Hall Judicial Board seemed imminent. Certain groups of students demanded that its bylaws be expanded to include procedural rights for students, the most important being the right to be considered innocent until the accuser proves guilt. Previously, the student, once charged, had to prove that he was not guilty. Once these rights were incorporated into Men's Residence Hall Judicial Board, they became accepted and were soon adopted by the other existing boards. For the most part, student boards heard cases involving ordinary violations of such regulations as curfew or quiet hours, but in 1969, an important case appeared which was to determine the viability of the student judicial system. That March, the Housing Office expelled four students from the dorms because of their conduct during the spring riot. They, in turn, appealed their case to Dean Pease. However, other concerned students intervened at this point and indicated that he could not hear the appeal. They insisted that neither the Housing Office nor the Dean could decide guilt or impose punishment without a prior hearing before a student judicial board. Dean Pease then informed the Housing Office to withdraw their punishment and the cases were sent to the appropriate boards. As a result of this, the legitimacy of student boards was established. A series of structural changes began in 1969 when the Women's Residence Hall Judicial Board, which was formerly part of the Dean of Women's Office, and the Men's Residence Hall Judicial Board, a part ol Mens' Dorm Council, were brought under the auspices of the Housing Office. At that time. Women's judicial Board, Men's judicial Review Board, an organizational Publication's Board, and a University Review Board existed in addition to the previously mentioned Men's and Women's Residence Hall judicial Boards. The new reorganization was designed to place the student boards under their appropriate administrative area. What resulted was a lot of confusion. Since little was actually written or precisely decided upon, the functioning of the system remained uncoordinated and the appellate system was jumbled and slow. In 1970 1 procedures were made more explicit when the Men's and Women's Residence Hall ludicial Boards examined their by-laws and expanded them to achieve greater clarity and finalize procedures involved in any hearing. A much talked about issue during this period was the fear that stu- dents may be subjected to double jeopardy. The University has never fully made its intentions clear on this matter. The policy is this — “The University's authority is not used merely to duplicate the function of general laws. But the fact that civil authorities may prosecute a student will not prevent the University from hearing a case and applying a penalty when its own interests are involved. This means that a student who commits an offense in this category is not only subject to punitive action by the civil authorities, but after these steps have been taken they are subject to further action by the University. So far, a student has never been subject to University action in addition to civil action, but the fact remains that under the present University policy it is possible. More changes and reorganizations are expected to be put in operation by Fall, 1971. Among these are the written compilation of violations which are under the regulation of all the judicial boards, a better appellate system, greater coordination of activities under a new administrative director in charge of jucidial operations, and the creation of a non-residence hall students judicial board with jurisdiction over non-resident students both on and off campus. Of course, a student will still have the option of choosing to be heard by a judicial board or the appropriate administrator. In general, there is a trend towards greater specificity in written regulations and operations and less opportunity for interpretation. What this means is that the power to decide on the definition of a violation is being shifted from the judicial boards (who interpret the rules) to the authors. The role of the student, then, has shifted from that of demanding rights and responsibilities to that of assuming a more bureaucratic and administrative role in judicial and policy making systems that already exist. off-campus housing committee all the realities which exist in Oakland, the most seemingly unreal is that the endearingly shabby area from Ophelia St. to South Craig is the greedy, yet ungrateful, asylum for great numbers of Pitt students. Year after year, apparently fascinated at the prospect of substandard living, some four thousand Pitt students ensconce themselves in the tenements of Oakland. Because there are many more people seeking apartments than there are units available, the market in student housing in Oakland is a seller's market. Exorbitant rents are charged for unhealthy, poor quality living units. According to the realtors, high rental charges can be attributed to increasingly steep property taxes. Although the fact exists that University expansion, by increasing the land value in the Oakland area, has caused a hike in property taxes, the chances are slim that this expense on the landlord's part warrants the stiff rents students must pay. If not much complaining is heard about the inferior living conditions prevalent in Oakland, it is due only to the fact that students, for the most part, consider their apartments solely as places where they and their friends can crash. Things like poor lighting and fire hazards are usually overlooked. However, among those students who were hardest hit with a combination of high rent, foul living conditions and unresponsive landlords, the desire to improve the housing situation in Oakland developed. This year a small group of irate tenants banded together under the auspices of the Student Association and reactiviated the long-slumbering Off-Campus Housing Committee. Since the fade-out of the original group, the sole recognition of the problem had been a rather inane handbook published by the Associated Women Students which sagely predicts that apartment dwelling helps to develop a sense of responsibility - there's no one to tell you when to be in, or to eat all your vegetables. With such a hum- ble beginning, the crusade for justice in housing was bound to improve. The initial goal of the Off-Campus Housing Committee was set at informing student tenants of minimum health codes and their lawful rights under them, and providing free legal service. It was realized that the large number of people employed in Oakland who also sought housing in the neighborhood would preclude the possibility of an effective tenants union. The Committee printed a survey in the Pitt News seeking basic information about where students lived, how much rent they paid, who their landlords were, etc. When a total of eight responses was received, the group began to reconsider its tactics. Before a new approach to the problem could be attempted, however, a seminar on off-campus housing was held in the Student Union. Representatives from most of the leading realtors in Oakland agreed to attend, in addition to people from the Department of Health, Neighborhood Legal Services, Peoples Oakland and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Turnout for the seminar was mediocre, both on the part of students and the organizations that had pledged to participate. In the face of discouraging defeat, the Off-Campus Housing Committee re-evaluated and discarded the role of a passive disseminator of information as its basis for operation, and embraced the prospect of actively bringing together students and their landlords for the purpose of discussing mutual concerns. Near the end of Winter Term, a dialogue was held between three of Oakland's major realtors and students from the Off-Campus Housing Committee, Foreign Student Asso- ciation and the Student Association. Resulting from the discussion was the creation of a landlord-tenant committee which will meet bi-monthly, come Fall, to decide on standards for housing conditions and on prices. In addition, it was decided to hold frequent rap sessions in the Student Union between landlords and tenants. As far as the latter is concerned, the Committee's responsibility will lie in personally contacting student tenants and urging them to air their grievances with the landlords. Throughout all of this student activity, the role of the University administration in dealing with off-campus housing problems has been not exactly helpful. However, in early |uly, a step in the right direction was taken with the creation of the Off-Campus Housing Office. Operating from offices in the Ruskin Apartments, the Off-Campus Housing Office plans to compile a substantially larger and more comprehensive listing of available housing than the one which existed in an anteroom of the Housing Office. In addition to assuming the former position of the Off-Campus Housing Committee in educating and assisting students in legal matters, the new Office hopes eventually to establish a working relationship with the landlords, reminding them of health requirements and advising them of student needs. But, in moments of deep despair, especially after considering the economics of the whole thing, Oakland will soon be a land of combined luxury apartment towers and landscaped parking lots. Perhaps then we should all move to East Sli-berty and set up communes. Views of three different kinds of people are presented in this section. While some individuals belong to more than one of these kinds, for the most part. Women, Blacks, and Commuters have maintained separate group identities and have dealt with separate, although somewhat related problems. These particular people have been chosen for this section because they have made the most noise while demanding changes in the attitude of the University towards their respective groups. We are pleased to say that each of the following articles is written by a very concerned and involved group member. We thus hope to avoid charges of misrepresentation, and also to give a very insightful view into the inner thoughts, feelings, and actions of these very important people. T JLh Present he University's top administrator sat placidly, his hands pressed into a small steeple at his chin. Fielding questions from a handful of campus journalists gathered in his panelled office for an informal press conference, Chancellor Posvar shifted position intermittently, sipping from a half-filled cup of diet soda at his elbow and leaning over the table to quietly make a point. I really don't think that you can compare women's liberation with black liberation, he said with amusement, countering a comment offered by the only female present. After all, there is an objective basis underlying racial discrimination . . . and as you know, the university, as a haven for all opinion, must remain neutral on political matters. It is against the very concept of a university to become involved in political movements. I mean, what would be the purpose of a School of Feminist Studies - to turn out professional feminists? What would you study in a School of Feminist Studies, anyway? Sheila Tobias, Associate Provost at Wesleyan University and a guest speaker at the Symposium on Feminism, held here September 23-4, 1970, suggested that female studies is the intellectual examination of the absence of women from history; the fresh look in a non-Freudian way at the social psychology of women; the study of women in literature and the images of women in arts; the economic and legal history of the family; and speculation about androgyny defined as societies, uto-pist, primitive, or revolutionary, where sex differences have been minimized. A few weeks following his remarks, in May, 1970, Posvar himself got a fresh look at the practical requirements of women's studies programs when two dozen campus feminists staged a teach-in in his office and demanded the establishment of a School for Interdisciplinary Feminist Studies to the budgetary tune of $350,000. The confrontation followed on the heels of a formal complaint lodged with the Department of Labor by the University Committee for Women's Rights' (UCWR), the most active feminist voice on campus. The women charged the University with gross discrimination in hiring, firing and advancement policies and threatened to appeal to the Department of Health, Education and Welfare under Executive orders 11246 and 11375, which prohibit an institution receiving Federal monies from engaging in practices discriminatory on the basis of race, religion. national origin or sex. The penalty for non-compliance is loss of Federal funds, and, for the University of Pittsburgh, a potential cutback of $25 million. At the time of the teach-in, the Chancellor and his aides promised to respond as soon as possible on the feasibility of the studies proposal and a package of others including an arrangement for day care facilities for female students, staff and faculty and a demand that half of the administrative posts in the University be filled by women. The administrative response, later to emerge as a critical move in its long range political implications, affirmed the University's opposition to all forms of discrimination and initiated a four-pronged study relating to the education, employment and career development of women in the University with initial reports due November I, 1970. To provide advice and input for the study, the Chancellor's Report also set up the Advisory Council on Women's Opportunities (ACWO) comprised of four students, four faculty, four administrators and four staff with at least three members of each category women. The Council, designed to serve as a source of collective advice, consultation and assistance to the administrative officers conducting the study , was rejected by the activist women who countered with a proposal of their own. An Office to Equalize the Status of Women with a full staff and an ample budget ($300,000), they argued, would have the major responsibility for assessing and drawing up adequate affirmative action plans to end discrimination against women. The University stuck with the ACWO, and the UCWR, in coaliton with independent feminists on the campus, went full steam ahead with its suit against the University in an attempt to bring the school into harmony with Federal guidelines. An eight-page memorandum from the UCWR to HEW alleged that women suffer from a tradition of anti-nepotism in employment, are placed in job categories unrelated to their talent and training and that male faculty members enjoy greater access to facilities (i.e. secretaries, office space) than do females. The charges apparently triggered HEW's demand for additional data after the University submitted four preliminary reports to the agency in August of 1970. In November, the University forwarded to HEW a 200 page Affirmative Action Program, which after review, was termed incomplete”. The A A Program, while promising to update recruitment and hiring practices and establish child care and maternity leave procedures, failed to include detailed data concerning salary ranges and training levels as they corresponded to positioning among women and minority groups within the University. HEW recommended on paper that Pitt's funds be withheld, but according to Dave Powers, Assistant to the Chancellor and chief spokesman on behalf of the Program, the resolution was not carried through into practice. Part and parcel of the agency's objections involved dissatisfaction with the Program's goals in the area of faculty recruitment. Current figures indicate that about 20% of the total faculty are women with the largest chunk holding instructor status; goals for 1971-2 would increase overall numbers of women by 4 percent. The staffing and availability of child care facilities was another area in which University performance was well below Federal expectations. Near the conclusion of Winter Term, 1970, the administration, acting on an ACWO recommendation, endorsed tentative plans for a center to be located at the Rodef Shalom Temple and to accommodate 45-60 indigent undergraduate women. The project, which will be funded by the University to one-fourth of its operating costs with the Federal government footing the rest, was attacked for its low-scale ambitions. It fails to deal with the problems of middle class white and black women who constitute 93% of the clerical and service workers. At the time this publication went to press, the status of the Affirmative Action Program and the suit against it were still ambiguous. The program has not yet been either accepted or rejected by HEW and the University is currently receiving its share of Federal grants and appropriations. The ACWO, slated to dissolve last January, was given an extension with budgetary supplement. The four-area study commissioned by the Chancellor in his May, 1970 memorandum is scheduled for completion during the summer of 1971. Implementation of the Institute for Feminist Studies proposal, however, has stagnated, and this is due W omen Ka| “Sexist Yearbook Vl Sit-In in part to the need for approval by the Board of Trustees and the State Department of Education, according to administrative sources. Women's courses are now piecemeal products of confrontations with department chairmen and academic councils. The number of courses handling the historical, literary and sociological patterns of female development vary fr,om term to term, although course enrollment is consistently increasing. The struggle for women's rights liberation has also assumed a more visible, participatory character over :he past year among the student population, especially in the realm of student publications. The legal, political and personal battles in the quest for female self-determination and equality became a staple of the news and editorial pages of The Pitt News, and even the business office of the campus newspaper informed its advertisers that it will cease carrying ads offensive to women . I he paper's policy attracted debate and controversy, but succeeded to some extent in bringing the problems of women to the forefront. The campus engineering monthly. Skyscraper Engineer, almost lost its departmental funding when its editor removed from the magazine's pages the Technicutie feature, a series of glossy photos depicting female students in various poses. This exposition itself comes a year after a small group of feminists, supported by four women's organizations, took exception to the 1970 OWL's treatment of the women's movement and demanded removal or refutation of the objectionable section. In addition to publications, sectors of the student body evinced an interest in the spiralling movement by sponsoring symposia, workshops and speakers. Alpha Phi Omega, the campus service fraternity, invited two women to address a meeting; the Student Engineering Cabinet set up a panel discussion attended by 70 students and faculty members from engineering departments; Environmental Action Zero Population Growth (EA ZPG) worked tirelessly to educate the University community about the legal and medical implications of abortion legislation and sponsored an Abortion and Birth Control Information Week during Fall Term. The Special Programs division of Student Affairs, relying heavily on student assistance, carried a significant share of the educational crusade. The office planned and executed a two day Symposium on Feminism, bringing to campus feminists representing every coloration of the political spectrum marking a growing social movement. Later in the academic year, the Symposium was followed by a series of discussions luncheons examining the status of women in the Health Professions and a March Speakers Series featuring national leaders such as Kate Millett, Naiomi Gray and Jeanne Noble. Much feminist effort has been centered around information gathering and dissemination. The ACWO has organized its operations into six task forces (in line with the recommendations of the Chancellor's Report): Student Affairs; Day Care and Women's Study Institute; the Health Related Professions, the Provost's Office; Staff; and Black Women. The Council also cosponsored with Mortar Board, senior women's honorary, a comprehensive study of graduate educational opportunities for women at Pitt. Despite the commitment and perseverance of the relatively small number of women waging the fight for equality, the University, in order to deserve its claim as a coeducational institution , has a long way to go before women and minorities can maintain an equalized status with white men. Males dominate the decision-making apparati here from the office of the Chancellor to University Senate committees; and female students can expect most courses to deal with the historical accomplishments of men and most faculty members to be baritones. peoples ■ women blacks fter the Pittsburgh racial riots in the spring of 1968, a rising tide of Black identity swept over the campus of the University of Pittsburgh. Black people were more and more rejecting the traditionalism that had previously patterned their lives and were expressing the desire to help their own people instead of only seeking to get a degree, move into the suburbs, and give cocktails parties. This new wave of Black thinking first manifested itself in the physical appearance of many Black students - the acquisition of afros, Afri-can-style clothing, and the rejection of make-ups in favor of the natural look. But this was not all. Black students looked at the University of Pittsburgh campus, and they wondered why it was that out of a total student population of over 16,000, Black students made up only one percent. They wondered why the University, w-ith such a large Black community population around it, had not made greater efforts to recruit young Black students. They then realized that they were only at the great White University of Pittsburgh because they were considered “superior Blacks - worth being given the chance for higher education. By this time Stokely Carmichael was exhorting cries of Black Power and Unity, and Black people started believing that they could and would determine the destinies of themselves and their people; Thusly on the University of Pittsburgh campus came the coming of the BAS . . . The little organization which had originally begun as an off-campus History Club began blossoming, and the University administration was shocked in january of 1969 to find that members of the Black Action Society has staged a protest for action by completely taking over the Cathedral's Computer Center. The students presented a list of demands to the administration which included: the recruitment of Black faculty, administrators, and other personnel at all levels; space in the Hillman Library for a Black Literature section; the establishment of an Institute of Black Studies in the University; and a proposal for the steady increase of Black enrollment until Blacks composed at least 20 percent of the University population. The University, after much discussion and debate, finally agreed to many of the demands made by the BAS. In the summer of 1%9, Dr. lack Daniels of the Speech Department and Curtiss Porter of the Black Action Society wrote their Black Paper for Black Studies,” which defined the need and structure of a proposed comprehensive program of Black Studies. A department of Black Studies, which would contain what Black students considered rele- vant and vital in the way of courses, was accepted by the University and implemented during this time period. The BAS had prior to this persuaded the University administration to implement special admission programs for Black and other racial minority students, and the Project A program had been in existence since the summer of 1968. It provided scholarships, tutorial, and on-campus living experience for Black and other minority group students who normally would not have gone to a large. White University. The program has since been named the Malcom, Martin, Marcus program, or Tri-M, and in September of 1969 the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Committee of the University voted to support financially and otherwise another Black Studies program under the auspices of the University Community Educational Program. Before the coming of the BAS, the Computer Center takeover. Black awakening, the Black Studies department, or the special minority programs, the small number of Black students sort of went unnoticed by the rest of the University population; but, with the emergence of all these things, a very cold tension developed between Whites and Blacks. Whites considered the Blacks Klannish and fearful, while Blacks considered the Whites racist and oppressive. It would be an outright lie to say that these attitudes have completely changed, but now White and Black students are working toward a common goal: the betterment of the University with respect to their own cultures and environments. Black students have, over the past two years, decided to become actively involved in those things in the University which have an effect on them. In January of 1970, Maloyd Ben Wilson, a senior speech and theater student, felt that some of the music being played on the campus radio station (WPGH) should be coming from a Black perspective and from Black people. He explored the idea, and the Black Side of WPGH was soon established, with Black D.J.'s, engineers, and managers. Since that time, the Black Side has undergone some changes, but Black students now hold powerful positions throughout the radio station. The situation which exists between Black and White WPGH workers is far from Utopian — racial tensions closed down the station in late March of 1971, but the two sides are functioning again. Campus politics soon became a point of interest to many of the Black students, and the 1971 Student Association elections concluded with the very outspoken and Black Wade Lawson winning one of the most powerful positions in campus politics - Committees Commissioner. The area of student publications was also touched by the new Black involvement, with the election of Don Marbury to the position of Editor-in-Chief of the Pitt News, the official undergraduate newspaper. Organizations such as the debate team, glee club, housing board, food service committees, and many administration-faculty-student organizations were all integrated by the Black involvement. In the early days of Black progress at the University, fraternities and sororities were the one outlet the Black students had for any social activity. They are still important, but not all-inclusive. Omega Psi Phi, Kappa Alpha Psi, Alpha Phi Alpha, and Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship are the four main Black fraternal organizations on campus, with Delta Sigma Theta, and Alpha Kappa Alpha the two sororities. A very sizeable proportion of the Black population are in or intend to pledge Greek groups at the Univer- sity, contrary to what is happening in White fraternities and sororities. The heads of Black frats and sororities attribute the stability of their organizations to the fact that the attitudes of Black frats and sororities are more oriented towards the needs of Black people, and not only the social aspect of college life. Black athletes have made large contributions to the University. The endeavors and triumphs of Bryant Salter, Smittie Brown, Lloyd Weston, and many other fine athletes have done much for the spirit and recognition in sports which Pitt has received in recent years, but little towards alleviating the plight of the Black athlete — the dilemma that the athletes face every time they compete for their White school. In January of 1971, the Black athletes, united with Black students, faculty, administration, and community, protested the treatment of the Black athletic performers, and threatened to boycott athletics and the University. They demanded fair treatment. a Black director of athletics, and an end to one-sided publicity. Black students now number well over I,(XX) students, not including many of the graduate and special community programs which are offered at the University of Pittsburgh. There are Blacks in influential, non-token administration and faculty positions. Black undergraduates are organized, and have a voice in many of the affairs which concern them. There is no question but that Black Pitt students have come a long way since early 19f 7, but they also realize that they are just getting things to the way they should have been in the first place, and that their progress thus far is only a comparatively few steps in the direction that can make this University deserved of the name “Institute of Higher Learning. Progress is being made, and Black people are at the University of People . . . to stay, mold, and improve themselves, their community, and ultimately, the world.

The real intellectual I He of a body of undergraduates, if there be any, manifests itself not in the classroom, but in what they do and talk of and set before themselves as their favorite objects between classes and lectures ... a college is not only a body of studies, but a mode of association. ... It must become a community of scholars and pupils. - Woodrow Wilson commuters - the “other university” T -■■he University of Pittsburgh has traditionally been a commuter school. It was not until the late 1950's, in fact, that the streetcar college opened its first residence halls. Yet the dorms have not altered Pitt's basic character. Today, only about 3,500 undergrads live in the dorms, about 1,500 live in off-campus apartments and fraternity housing, and nearly 6,000 commute every day from as far away as Butler and Monessen. But what kind of education does the commuter receive? The huge, impersonal multiversity, where students lack the opportunity to become involved in their school, is not the right environment for developing the whole person. President Wilson would be disappointed. Even though the quality of academic instruction is high at Pitt, attending classes is only half (?) of what a college education should be. Commuters, for the most part, are forced to miss out on the other - perhaps the more important — half - activities, organizations, social events, speakers, films, new and interesting people, and simple things like midnight shaving cream battles. Commuters face two main sets of problems: physical problems, which hamper participation inextracurricularevents; and, psychological problems, which are caused largely by lack of involvement. But, despite the fact that commuters are a majority of students on this campus — and that more commuters than residents are being admitted each year - almost no overt interest, until very recently, had been shown in helping commuting students. 1970-71 was the first year that commuter problems really came to light. Commuter news made the front page of the school newspaper, and administrators finally began to admit that a problem may exist. The Commuter Association, having been reorganized the previous year, began to make slow-but-steady progress, and a general awareness of commuter problems was created at the University. .Larking is the most frequent commuter gripe. Students who drive often have to orbit the Oakland area for fifteen to twenty minutes to find a parking space, and, despite the fact that each new freshman class increases the commuter student population, little is being done to increase the amount of parking space allocated to students. The University, until very recently, ignored the commuter parking problem altogether by denying that it had any responsibility for providing “auxiliary services (parking) to students. The Commuter Association was once told by a high University official that “there is no parking problem in Oakland. However, much worse than the University's failure to provide parking are administration promises of future plans which include parking. High school students considering Pitt are sent brochures showing pictures of the Towers (framed by the only tree in Oakland). In the mid-sixties, the first Commuter Association president was told of the parking that would be available in two or three years. As early as 1950, a current student's father recalled plans to build a multi-level parking garage under the Cathedral lawn. But, despite the fact that the University has at one time denied the existence of a parking problem, and at the same time promised more parking without ever building it, the situation is growing worse. A study made by Ramp Consulting Services, Inc., for the Pittsburgh Parking Authority and the Department of City Planning (1969) revealed that there is indeed a shortage. The deficit is currently estimated at 2,000 spaces, and the report projected that by 1975, the Oakland area will be short an estimated 9,500 spaces. It is, perhaps, a little too early to be hopeful, but it appeared that in the last few weeks of school the administration may finally cooperate with students in the area of parking. Negotiations are currently underway with the administration for two new lots, and more may be obtained in the future. Right now, the plight of commuters who depend on PAT busses is as bad as the plight of those with cars. Busses are slow-, undependable, crowded, uncomfortable, and becoming increasingly more expensive. Despite what the Port Authority's massive Public Relations campaign would have the public believe, riding busses is a very inconvenient mode of transportation. Pitt commuters who would like to stay around for evening activities are also faced with the fact that bus service at night is infrequent. Allegheny County is currently in the middle of a debate over rapid transit. The Sky-bus plan, even if approved, would only be operational in 1975 and would not serve Oakland, Facilities, or more appropriately the lack of facilities, for the growing commuter student population discourages involvement as effectively as the transportation problem. Hillman Library, the Commons Room, and the Student Union provide almost adequate study space for commuters, but lounge space is insufficient. A commuter doesn't really have a chance to relax. The library is probably used more as a lounge by commuters than as a place for study. Also, there are no shower facilities for commuters who would like to freshen up for an evening activity, and no overnight facilities available to commuters who would like to stay on campus for an occasional late event or special weekend. Next year, a substantial increase in lounge space in the Student Union is promised. In addition, a new food service has been brought onto campus for the next year, so there is hope for improved eating opportunities. Scheduling is another major problem faced by Pitt commuters. The University has never taken a survey of its commuter student body, but the CA has estimated that nearly fifty percent of all commuters hold part-time jobs, and some work as much as forty hours a week. Coupled with the large time commitment commuters make to traveling to and from school, the amount of time spent on the job further re- duces the amount of time that can be spent on campus. Yet, the Registrar's Office is not very generous towards commuters. There is some kind of provision for avoiding Saturday classes if the student commutes from more than twenty-five miles away, and it is possible to get some consideration is one holds a job, but most commuters are still faced with very inconvenient schedules. Most eight o'clock classes are disproportionately made up of commuters, and many have five or six hour gaps between classes. peoples ■ commuters - the other university When I came to Pitt, I fooled around too much. Me and my friends majored in the Tuck Shop. I told my son he better just stick to schoolwork. I want to see grades. We don't like our daughter staying around at night for activities. We want her to come home for dinner and study. My dad says as long as I'm living in his house I'll have to go by his rules. I have to get my hair cut and he doesn't like me to talk about race or the war. I think the biggest problem is the loneliness. You don't know anybody and nobody ever talks to anybody. I just come to classes. I don't really feel like I belong here. TCie most serious problems a commuter faces are psychological. The impersonal environment makes many commuters feel more like office workers than college students, and living at home with parents can create a bigger strain on the individual than going away for the first time. To compound matters, most college counseling centers are geared to resident students' problems. One psychologist who has researched commuter problems is Professor Herman Schuchman of the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle, and he has opened the eyes of many people. The single most important problem is parents. At Parents' Weekend last year, the major causes of student-parent conflict were brought out at the Commuter Association's Workshop. Most parents, such as the two quoted above, fail to see education as more than just attending classes. They would disagree with President Wilson's ideal of a college community. To them, there is no value in activities or social events. At an age when a young adult should be given more personal freedom, many parents still treat their student son or daughter as though they were still in high school. Treating students as children can create anxiety and resentment. Many parents set down unrealistic curfews for their off-spring, and many still expect chores to be performed - ignoring the fact that much more of the student's time is now being spent in study, commuting, or at a job than had been spent in high school. The commuter must really live in two worlds — the university and the home community. The constant conflict between the value systems of these two groups creates problems. For instance, a student may be exposed to liberal ideas on the war and the racial problem by professors and fellow students at school, but very often a student's parents hold quite different views. This is compounded by the fact that many commuters are first-generation college-goers, and often come from working-class families whose attitudes and life-styles are considerably different than those of college graduates. Living, as the commuter does, in these two worlds, sets up the double vise of too much control by parents and not enough chances for social interaction with peers. The result is often a slowing of the student's emotional maturation process. The second most serious problem is the feeling of not belonging to the university community. The mainstream of campus life revolves around those students who live nearby and most commuters, being unable to take a more active role, feel left out. Commuters generally have fewer friends and acquaintances on campus than do residents. Many students, dorm and commuter alike, may never be in a class with fewer than fifty or sixty students, or at most have only a few small classes in their upper-class years. This type of environment does not allow much social interaction or opportunity to discuss curricular matters outside of class with fellow students. Three members of the staff of the Student Affairs Office sum up what it means to be a commuter: Students tell me that the Commons Room is divided up along geographical lines. There's a place where people from the South Hills sit, and there are Monroeville and Beaver Valley sections. Everybody just stays with their high school friends. Yes, you see an awful lot ot high school letters around here. The commuters just seem to come in the morning and go home at three o'clock. We can never get them to stay around for evening activities or social events. That's true, but there's really nothing we can do about it. peoples ■ ommulers - the other university ±i. group such as the? Commuter Association is a response, although there are obviously profound differences between solving physical and psychological problems. Put very simply, it is considerably easier (and less frustrating) to attempt to alleviate the crushing physical space problem than to convince either students or their parents that they should be liberated. Furthermore, in the former case it is clear that commuters have a legitimate claim. It is not nearly so clear in the latter. This year the Commuter Association worked in all these areas, and, while few gigantic successes can be claimed, at least a start has been made. People wondered what the CA was trying to do, and as such, many misunderstood our motives. The CA made a lot of news and a lot of noise. We held a Commuting Seminar in November which flopped, and the group also sponsored a few moderately successful social events. The CA newspaper. The Magic Bus, also made an impact. Perhaps the most noteworthy commuter event was the mini-crisis in February when the CA set a deadline for the erection of two bus-stop shelters. For a year, the project had been delayed by zoning and construction hassles, and promises had been uttered at least five times to have the shelters up. Each time, the shelters were de- layed, but on February 8, construction was begun. While these hassles were going on, there was talk of a sit-in in the Vice-Chancellor's Office to dramatize what w'as happening. The CA was prepared to set up mock cardboard and wood shelters had not construction commenced, but the Administration had ordered coffee for one hundred to entertain an irate group of students. The CA acquired a somewhat radical reputation after this incident. While the group was most likely not as radical as compared to some others, most was accomplished through taking a firm stand. In the area of parking, for example, the CA rejected an administration plan for the re-opening of the Panther Hollow lot, which had traditionally been free, on a fee basis. It now looks as though the lot will be available next year without cost. While the CA is an advocate of taking a firm stand against administration excuses, other people believe this not to be enough. For example, in February, a group of loosely organized Pitt commuters calling themselves Students Tired of Paying (STOP) spray-painted parking meters in the Oakland area. Instead of preventing the meter maids from reading the meters, the ladies merely scraped the paint off the glass and gave tickets as usual. What this inci- dent did accomplish was the alienation of the City of Pittsburgh from the commuting student. When CA members have met with city parking planners, they have been reminded of the incident and the cost of replacing the meters. While the CA has been making an effort to eliminate some of the barriers towards increased commuter participation in the university life, commuters themselves will have to make more of an effort. Such is the extent of the solution to the psychological problems that exist. When a commuter wants to stay for an activity, that student will have to try hard to overcome the problems associated with an extended stay. Until such time as a large number of commuting students begin to change their values with respect to what they want out of a college education, the problem lends itself to solution only through personal choice. Perhaps a panel such as the one established at Wayne State University to examine the commuter problem could be attempted here. It would be a start towards developing a long-range commitment towards helping commuting students. But in the short-range, progress is being made - again, slowly but surely. Commuters were in the news so much this year that the Pitt News April Fools issue satirized the CA twice. This year was a beginning. There is a greater willingness on the parts of students and administrators to deal with the commuting situation, and in bringing about such an awareness, the CA has been successful. peoples commuters - the other university where? This year The OWL would like to bring your attention to three areas of the University whose reputation and fine qualities are not recognized by many students. Here is a bird's eye view of the Band, the Studio Theatre, and the Observatory. WHERE? � INTRODUCTION HD pitt marching band Presenting the University of Pittsburgh one-hundred and twenty piece Varsity Marching Band . . The allmale Pitt Band is a highly spirited, close-knit, yet diverse, group of musicians. As a result of their efforts tc entertain football spectators and promote school spirit, the group has developed a fraternal spirit that holds it together and makes its members willing to sacrifice much of their time to practice and drills. Practice begins with training camp just prior to the opening of the fall term. For seven days the members withstand soreness, swollen lips, and marching, marching, and more marching. But this kind of effort has made the Pitt Band one of the nation's outstanding university bands. Members receive no monetary compensation for their participation, however, they feel that their trips to a way foot bal I ga mes provide adequa t e reward. During the 1970 season the hand participated in the Steel Bowl. As in the past 2.1 years, the Marching Band ended its season with the Stadium Review in Carnegie Music Hall. Dr. Robert L. Arthur is retiring this year as the head of the Pitt Marching Band after over thirty years of service. Band members will always remember their director Ace”. university theatre The Studio Theatre is an undergraduate organization designed to provide both the theatre major and the interested non-major in the various aspects of dramatic production -acting, directing, stage management, costume and set design. Under the guidance of The Studio Theatre Board and a faculty advisor, a wide range of plays, from the experimental to the conventional, are presented each year. The board takes charge of publicity, finances, maintenance of the theatre, and deter- mines, from suggestions submitted by student directors, which plays will be produced each term. I he versatility of the theatre located n the Cathedral basement makes a variety of productions possible. There is no fixed, permanant stage Dr seating arrangement so the physical form of the theatre may be idapted to the needs of the play, ’ast productions have included nodern dance dramas, pantomime, .everal original plays and a musical. The Fantasticks, as well as such famous works as Genet's The Maids, Anouilh's Antigone, Dylan Thomas' Under Milkwood, and Wicherley's The Country Wife, for which the theatre was altered to resemble a 17th century playhouse. The Studio Theatre also premiered an original Latin American play, Carballido's A Short Day's Anger and Center Avenue: A Trip a black revolutionary play by Rob Penny. In keeping with its function as an educational vehicle, the resources of the Studio Theatre are available to acting and directing classes, as well as to other courses in the Speech Department. One Studio production, The Country Wife, represented the final product of Speech 123, a course in the history of acting styles. The goal of the Studio Theatre is to provide an open center for theatrical activity in the University, and to present local audiences with a diversity of fine productions. observatory The Allegheny Observatory is a relatively unknown component of the University, yet it has been a part of Pitt since 1867. At that time, one of the country's largest telescopes - a thirteen-inch refractor - was located there. Today, the Observatory has three telescopes, the largest of which is the 30-inch Thaw refractor. This instrument, the third-largest of its kind in the country (and the largest photographic refractor), has been used for parallax studies since 1914, making the Observatory the oldest center for parallax studies in the world. Important findings there have been: (1) proof that the rings of Saturn were composed of particles (1895) and (2) the discovery of the rotation of stars (1905). In addition to the obscurity of the Observatory, the Astronomy Department is virtually unknown. Perhaps this is due to the failure of its four full-time professors to offer a greater range of appealing undergraduate courses; or perhaps the location of the Observatory (which contains the Astronomy Dept.) on the North Side of the city discourages people. In any case, in an age in which so much emphasis is placed on the exploration and understanding of space, it is too bad that the fine talents of the people and the extensive facilities of the Allegheny Observatory are currently under-utilized. Socially, the 1970-1971 year was a disappointment. If it were not for the Franklin Pangborn Film Club, football games, fraternity parties, and twenty-four hour open-house, the Pitt student might have found the only entertainment in loitering in front of the Briar Bowl ogling girls and picking on the south Oakland gentlemen. Looking over the events of the year, one is reminded of unqualified performers in a talent contest. The audience was given a shoddy facsmile of a better act, and all the while it kept looking to the wings for the big hook to reach out and relieve it of the embarrassing spectacle. Sure enough, the hook came. vVinter Weekend has been eliminated and so has Parents' Weekend. Even Homecoming is not looking as healthy as t once did. Three major reasons for the mercy killings which abol-shed Parents' and Winter Weekends can be examined. :irst, a high calibre event must generate interest. The ormat for a social affair, it successful, can be used for ne or two years and then must be changed so as not to row stagnant. It was through repetition of the film, carnival, and mediocre concert routine that Winter Week- m end ran itself into the ground. Parents' Weekend started off lacking initial appeal and never was improved. If Homecoming is to continue, it must become more than a time for another concert. A second problem, and perhaps the most important, lies in the heterogeneity of the campus. It is almost impossible to gear an event for any large segment of the campus population. Greek Week, Engineers Week, Black Week, and even Freak Week all experienced limited success because of the homogenous nature of the sponsoring groups. For the past two years Pitt has had no wide appealing events. A third problem of Pitt's special events is the tremendous dependence the major activities have on the Greek System. The responsibility must be spread so that more people will become active. If more interest is not aroused within the university, there may be little use for a student's activity fee. What happened to the better concerts and social events of a few years ago? They probably left along with the better concert and social events planners of a few years ago. This year's Homecoming was rather boring until Chancellor Posvar planted a congratulatory kiss on the cheek of beautiful Homecoming Queen, Ann Thomas. Then, the Pitt football team made the day one that few will soon forget. And so, through a coincidence of scheduling, the year of 1970 will remembered by many in terms of the Homecoming game against WVU. Melodious, blue-eyed Judy Collins had a successful concert, but it almost did not matter. After the great football game, the Homecoming Committee could have presented the Political Science Department doing their impression of the Jackson Five, and Homecoming would still have been a success. But take away the football game and, for the undergraduate, Homecoming would just be another occasion for a concert. For example, an attempt was made to replace the Homecoming floats of the past with displays based on this year's poor theme of Hail to Pitt . Originally, groups from throughout the University were to exhibit displays on the Cathedral lawn. As it turned out, only three groups participated, all of which were Greek. Although the winning display by Zeta Beta Tau and Kappa Alpha Theta was an impressive one, the judges missed the most impressive one of all -the display of apathy on the part of the student body. EVENTS ■ HOMECOMING The cliche, If you're seen one, you've seen them all , was never so applicable. Winter Weekend 71 was a carbon copy of Winter Weekend 70 with the exception that even less people participated. The carnival was once again held in the Commons Room of the Cathedral, but with so few groups participating, one expected to hear echoes bouncing off the walls. And the concert, supposedly the highlight of the weekend, was stained with controversy, as the Black Action Society sought to bring in a soul group instead of the redundant hard rock diet which the University had been receiving. As it turned out, the Carpenters were the main entertainment and gave an adequate, though not sensational, performance. What can one say about a university social event that died? In its 1971 form it would not make a good story. EVENTS ■ WINTER WEEKEND rtRK n 0 EVENTS ■ WINTER WEEKEND Engineers’ Week traditionally scheduled tor the week which contains St Patrick's Day. began with the annual parade clown Bigelow Blvd. to the Cathedral. All departments are represented in the parade as well as in the other events of the week and each department also nominates a candidate for St. Patricia. After the kickoff parade, the demonstrations begin. These programs are open to the public but high school and engineering students and their parents are particularly encouraged to attend. The fun event was the pie-eating contest. This year. Engineers' Week held special significance because the new engineering building, Benedum Hall, was dedicated at this time. The ccr monies included a dinner for alumni and students followed by speeches by It. Gov. Kline and Chancellor Posvar. The week's entertainment was provided by the N.Y. Rock and Roll Ensemble and topped off by the Engineers' Ball at the Hilton Hotel. [VENTS ■ ENGINEERS' WEEK Since 1955, the senior class of the School of Medicine under the pseudonym of Scope and Scalpel Society, has presented rather sophisticated plays satirizing their four years as students. These productions with elaborate sets full-piece orchestra and seventy member cast are put together and made up entirely by the medical students. The support for the society comes completely from donations by doctors, students, families, and friends. The titles of the past productions reveal their years: Satan Place - 1958; Beyond the Syringe - 1964; Maim -1967; Cramalot - 1968; Medic-Hair - 1969; and this year's production C A S H. Scope and Scalpel is the medical school's way of syaing, Always wipe from front to rear. With the Circus as their theme, co-chairmen Boh Leap and Sandy Stanko made Greek Week 1971 a successful event. The kick-off for the week began with the traditional Chariot Races preceded this year by a parade. The chariots, built from scratch, ranged in variety from life-size lions to life-size ferris wheels Kap|M Sigma. Delta Sigma Phi. and Delta eta won tin races, while Fill and Chi Omega won the chariot decoration competition. That evening. Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Delta Theta, and Alpha Della Pi won the Fun Night and scavenger hunt activities. Phi Kappa Theta and KapjM Gamma were winners in the banner competition. Tuesday brought the Awards Night and Greek Week Queen Talent Contest ac tivities. Winner of the Queen's contest was Alpha Epsilon Phi's, Patty Brown, who sang the number I Don't Know Mow To love Him from the rock opera fesus Christ, Superstar. The Chancellor's Cup, was awarded to Phi Kap| a Theta, and the All-Sports Trophy was given to FIJI. A special award was given to the men of eta Beta Tau from the National Interfraternity Council for academic excellence. Roy Cook. Kappa Sigma, was awarded the honor of Mr. Fraternity . Wednesday evening was considered by many to lx the highlight of the week - Greek Sing. The sorority division was won l y Delta Phi Epsilon with an outstanding arrangement of A Time For Us and Bach's Brandenburg Concerto — J in G Major , both sung a cap-pella. Delta eta and Alpha Epsilon Phi took second and third place resjx ctively. The winner in the fraternity division was Delta Phi, dramatizing and ringing the finale from Man of la Mancha Providing excellent com l etilion were Fill and Sigma Alpha Epsilon who placed second and third, eta Beta lau, with exciting choreography from South Pacific, did two numbers. Friday drew turnaway crowds for the annual Blood Drive which took in over 2(X) pints this year. Friday evening's event was tin- Greek Formal at Chatham Center, and here, at midnight. the over-all winners of the week were announced. For the sororities, the winner was Delta Phi Epsilon, followed by Chi Omega and Kappa Kappa Gamma. Fill took the first place trophy for fraternities and was followed by Phi Kappa Iheta and eta Beta lau. Ca| ping the week of festivities was the Saturday night concert at the Syria Mosque which featured Steppenwolf. EVENTS ■ GKEEK WEEK EVENTS ■ GREEK WEEK For an event to be successful in a large heterogenous university, the topic or entertainment must either be general in appeal, and with out much depth or very specific, and capture an audience of almost everyone with an interest in that area. In the early fall, Chet Huntley spoke to a packed house at Common Facilities. His famous personality and wide topic area (the world) resulted in the large attendance. The same was true for Dick Gregory. Although of greater appeal to blacks, his credentials as comedian, writer, and politician drew a large and varied audience. This winter, the Amazing Kreskin attracted such a large audience that many students were turned away at the door. His topic, FSP, was specific but combined with his abilities as an entertainer it generated broad interest. People were also turned away when Bernadette Devlin spoke at Carnegie Music Hall. Although her topic was more specific her appeal was wide and her name, too, was famous. Kate Millet spoke to a capacity crowd in the S.U. Ballroom. Her topic, the women's movement although specific is current and generated widespread campus interest. Leonard Wineglass, defenseattorney for the Chicago Seven debated with Dan )ay from Young Americans for Freedom. Two interest groups were attracted here along with those out for an evening's entertainment. Zero Population Growth sponsored a week long forum on abortion to present both sides of this burning issue. But like the topic of the week, the forum itself was an abortion. Perhaps the main reason for the lack of attendance is that the campus has been oversaturated with such discussions. Another forum that was less than successful was the ICG's two evenings of discussion on the urban crisis. Barely sixty people appeared to see such speakers as Saul Alinsky, Robert Weaver, Isaiah Robinson, Dick Thornburgh, John Tabor, Sam Hays, and Roy Lubone. The specific and academic nature of the subject combined with the Friday night appearance of VVm. Kunstler at Carnegie Music Hall resulted in a small audience of mostly graduate students and urban affairs majors. EVENTS ■ SPEAKERS EVENTS • SPEAKERS EVENTS ■ SPEAKERS An interesting year for the athletic department began in an unexpected locale in June of 1970 as Athletic Director Casi-mir Myslinski hosted a press buffet a Frees Hall's Carlson Gardens. Although word had leaked out ahead of the noontime affair, the AD utilized the occasion to formally reveal the athletic department's plans for resurfacing Pitt Stadium with As- troTurf, placing the old stadium in a class with the modern arenas - and once again proclaiming Pitt as big time in athletics. The year which followed was destined to reveal reams of information for the newspapermen, television and radio people of Pittsburgh and the nation. For Myslinski, some of the moments were pleasant, but most were hec tic - far short of the festive atmosphere of the Carlson Gardens buffet. The department was aware of the risks of incompletion as laborers worked on the Astro-Turf with their deadline only a few weeks before the football season was scheduled to begin. Possible delays - which always seem to occur in such undertakings — did not arise, and the Pitt gridders began the season in a stadium which boasted a AfHLltlCS ■ INIK() brand now field which blatantly clashed against the older surroundings of the bowlshaped palace. There was also the risk of objections to the estimated spending of $400,000 on the Turf and a Tartan track which also adorned the stadium. But few complaints were heard, and the outlay appeared worthwhile. So, for a few short months, the athletic department ran smoothly, as that always present lull before the storm passed by. Even the football team showed signs of success, winning five of their first six games. A four-game losing streak concluded the gridders' play, but the 5-5 record was a passable accomplishment for a team that still hadn't forgotten some miserable years in the late sixties. However, just as everyone was beginning to forget about football and basketball season approached, an avalanche of problems began for the athletic department. Several black football players protested treatment during the season - treatment by coaches, the publicity office, the local media and the Pitt News. The powerful Black Action Society called a press conference to voice its complaints to the public. This December press gathering was far removed from the pleasantries of June at Trees Hall. The Pitt athletic department had now been added to a growing list of institutions accused of racial bias. Though the charges still exist, little has happened. So far, the BAS has inflicted little more than a black eye to the athletic department. However, one of the major objectives of the BAS, the selection of a black administrator for the department, appears to be nearing reality. A month after the charges were lodged, with the black athletic dilemma fresh in everyone's mind, the winter term began. Perhaps it shouldn't have. Another band of athletes protested in January. From the depths of Trees Pool where they were seldom heard - and dunked more often than not — the Pitt swimmers begged for the firing of their coach. Bill Grant. After most of the top swimmers quit by mid-season. Grant resigned. I he ex-swim-mers rejoined and a couple surprising victories appeared -but all of that came after some dismal confrontations between Myslinski, Grant and the swimmers. The wrestling program gradually became a headache during the winter term. With unfortunate personal problems and injuries, the grap squad turned from a contender for the national title into an also ran at both the Eastern and NCAA championships. The wrestling situation, in addition to the BAS problem, gave the department negative national publicity which was intensified when the NCAA refused to permit star Mark Payne to compete because of shoulder-length hair. Only the cross country and track teams were outstanding in 70-71, but the year was interesting — and filled with many problems. ATHLETICS ■ INTRO The Pin football team teetered at the edge of glory in 1970, but eventually fell into the mediocrity of a .500 season. In his second year as head coach of the grid squad, Carl OePasqua at least appeared to come by some success with his policy of working on the fundamentals. Concentrating on a powerful running attack which was spearheaded by halfback Denny Ferris and fullback Tony Esposito, the Panthers were able to outscore their opposition early in the year. However, injuries became a major concern to DePasqua not long after the season began. A revolving door situation occurred at quarterback, as the Panthers' three signal callers periodically exchanged duties because of injuries. It was very late in the season before the same quarterback had started in back-to-back games. But the quarterbacking position proved not to be the only precarious spot on the field for Pitt. The defensive team took a particularly hard beating from injuries. Seven of the eleven defensive starters missed the Notre Dame game because of mishaps on the field, culminating in DePasqua's switching offensive men l.ou Julian and Phil Sgrignoli to linebacker. The injuries weren't overly harmful early in the season, though, as the weaker part of the 70 schedule helped the Panthers march to a 5-1 mid-season chart. An opening day loss to UCLA was the only blemish on the record at that point. After the fifth win the Panthers had attained the attention of national pollsters for the first time in seven years, as the Associated Press listed the Cats eighteenth in the nation. The Panthers were also sitting on top of the weekly Lambert voting for supremacy in the East. ATHLETICS ■ iOOIBAL HHNI na The most exciting part of that leap into the limelight was not the fifth victory, however. A week earlier, the Panthers had won number four in the Homecoming game at Pitt Stadium. It was a game that will be remembered at Pitt for a long time. The game was against rival West Virginia, and both teams entered the contest with 3-1 records. But West Virginia was more impressive on paper, with big wins compared to some early squeakers for Pitt. And for awhile on that October day it appeared the Mountaineers were by far superior. They dominated the first half of the game, romping to a 35-8 half-time advantage . . . Some of the sellout homecoming throng began to leave. Almost amazingly — at the least, methodically - the Panthers constructed a second half comeback that will challenge any of history's comebacks. Pit I Oppo. 15 UCLA 15 Baylor 27 Kent State 10 Navy West Virginia Miami (Fla.) Syracuse otre Dame ton College State Four times the Panthers got their hands on the ball - and four times the Panthers marched for touchdowns, staying on the ground mostly and using only a few passes. The Cats' efforts for the first downs were never thwarted in the second half, while the Pitt defense halted the VVVU's three attempts to reach the sticks. The comeback was so well constructed that only 54 seconds remained in the game when Pitt scored the go-ahead touchdown. WVU's final opportunity was snuffed when a last second mid-field fumble recovery by the Panthers ended the game ... You had to be there. Just two weeks after the height of the football season, the roof caved in on the Panthers on a day at Syracuse where the clouds caved in to bring a rain storm which befitted the occa- ATHLETICS ■ FOOTBALL sion. Ben Schwartzwalder's Syracuse Orangemen, a team destined to come back themselves from disastrous racial problems and an early season three-game losing streak, smashed Pitt, 43-13. The Panthers were now destined to see no more victories in 1970. The only bright spot the rest of the way was a momentary 14-13 lead in the first half against Notre Dame. It was the first time anyone had an advantage over the Fighting Irish in 70, but it was short-lived as the Irish pulled away in the second half to defeat Pitt's hopes for a big season. After a loss at home to Boston College, the Panthers final chance for a winning season depended on the traditional finale against Penn State. In 70, the game was played at University Park, Pa., and the host Nittany Lions let the Cats know right away that they were serious about winning. State scored on the first play from scrimmage and soon ended the Pitt year on a losing note. After five consecutive wins, the Panthers had lost four straight and could finish with no better than a 5-5 record. Certainly it was better than the 4-6 of 1%9, but after the good start the final mark was disappointment. With many seniors on the 70 squad, it looked like the year most likely to result in a bowl trip, something Pitt football teams are becoming more and more oblivious to as the years go by. The mood was set at the final loss to Penn State in late November when reporters attempted to reach DePasqua by phone in the Pitt locker room. The coach had already left for an anniversary celebration with his wife. Someone answered the phone in the locker room and stunned the press corps with his answer: Call back in January. ATHLETICS ■ FOOTBALL ATHLETICS ■ FOOTBALL Pitt Opp. 2 Akron 4 2 West Chester 1 2 Bucknell 4 2 C.M.U. 1 4 Temple 0 i Grove City 1 2 Ohio U. 0 0 Cleveland St. 2 4 Slippery Rock 0 1 West Virginia 0 0 Penn State 1 Leo Bemis, the only soccer coach Pitt has ever had, guided his hooters to their best campaign in five years in 1970, but the season ended with a kind of disappointment that can only result from a well-played season. The Booters record revealed eight wins and four losses, and the four defeats were barely enough to keep them out of the NCAA District 2 playoffs. Actually, the soccermen were rejected by the playoff people after only three losses. They were preparing for their season finale against Penn State when the district's soccer committee announced its four choices. One of those selected was Penn State (7-2 at the time) and another was a Penn team which had 2 defeats, 2 ties, and 2 games remaing to be played. A victory over State would have meant two Eastern teams were in the playoffs with poorer records than the booters, since Penn proceeded to lose one of its remaining games. The Pitt booters lost a close defensive game to the Lions 2-1, and could only wonder if the outcome might have been different if a tourney berth were contingent on a victory. But for Bemis, the 1970 season marked a complete turnabout from his lowest point as soccer coach in 1968 when players were asking that he be dismissed from his position. We simply have more soccer players, Bemis said throughout the more pleasant 70 year. And he also insisted that moving into Pitt Stadium to play on the AstroTurf and practicing on Trees Field meant a great deal to the team. In the past they had practicied and played on fields that were comparable to neighborhood lots. A more potent scoring attack also helped the 1970 team. Ali Rdissi led the way with nine goals as Tony Nicholac opolous and Denny Kohlmeyer booted in five and three goals respectively. One strong threat was missed, though, as senior Conference Tsi-ma Lekoma was injured early in the season. Despite limited competition, the cross-country team compiled its most impressive record since Jim Banner has been coach at Pitt. Banner chose to eliminate several early season dual meets with the hope of having the squad in top shape for the championships at the conclusion of the fall. Led by two-time cross-country All-American Jerry Richey, the harriers whipped both Cleveland State and YV.V.U. by large margins. In a tough Notre Dame Invitational, the team finished fifth, one point from fourth place. Competing against W.V.U., Penn State, and Syracuse in the first annual Big Four Cross Country meet, the harriers ran away with the trophy as six runners placed in the top ten spots, paced by Richey's first. At the East's IC4A's the Pitt runners narrowly missed upsetting perennial powerhouse Villanova. The top five scorers for Pitt - Richey. Dave Szabat, Greg Rodgers, Dave Cheseborough, and Mike Schurko - to talley 79 points, enough for second place in the team standings and only nine points less than the victorious Villanova. It was the first time in sixteen years that a Pitt cross country team had won a trophy at the IC4A competition. However, Richey ran the worst race of his career at the NCAA championships one week later, finishing 116th in the field. The Pitt squad placed 11th in the nation at the meet as senior Vornhagen led the harriers with a 47th place run. ATHLETICS ■ CROSS COUNTRY Alter almost a decade of below average basketball. Coach Charles Buzz Ridl, in 1970-71, fielded a Pitt five that was capable of winning some games. His Panthers compiled a 14-10 record, and until very late in the season, the Panthers were under consideration for a National Invitational Tournament (NT) bid. However, three consecutive losses on the road at the conclusion of the schedule thwarted the opportunity. Ridl's cagers startled Pittsburgh sports fans early in the season with a convincing win at the 20th annual Steel Bowl Tourney over city rival Duquesne. The win marked the first time a Panther squad had enjoyed victory over the Dukes in eight years. A record Civic Arena crowd turned out the next night to watch the Pitt cagers succumb to an awesome UCLA team in the tourney's championship game. But the eventual national champion Bruins didn't pull away from the Pitt five until midway through the second half. Three consecutive victories at home in January against Davidson, Penn State and North Carolina State indicated that the upset of Duquesne might not be a fluke. But as always, the home-and-home series with West Virginia while having more than its share of excitement wasn't of the best variety. In the first meeting at Fitzgerald Field House ATHLETICS basketball the Mountaineers outlasted a Panther rally to win in a contest which will be remembered as the garbage game. Two technical fouls were assessed against Pitt because of debris thrown onto the court by a handful of students, and those T's had much to do with the Pitt defeat. In the return engagement at WVU's new Coliseum, A WVU basket in the final three seconds sunk the Panthers after a tight contest. Senior Bill Downes and junior Kent Scott handled the starting backcourt duties most of the season for the Panthers. And Paul O'Gorek showed great improvement in the center position, while sophomore Carl Morris and Junior Mike Paul Manned the forward posts. Ed Buzzy Harrison, a sophomore, sparked the cagers in his role as the sixth man throughout the year and broke into the starting five when Paul injured his ankle late in the season. Future Pitt basketball teams will benefit from the outstanding freshmen who produced an impressive 11-4 mark under Cub coach Tim Grgurich; such as Mickey Martin who led the team in scoring, and |im Bolla who paced the squad under the boards. Sam Fleming, Ken Waggoner and Gary Pagano also contributed to the effort. Players like these point to a fine future for Pitt basketball.

The wrestlers suffered an unbelieve-able string of injuries, accidents and freak cir-cumstatnces which forced them to use third -and fourth - string men in the varsity line-up toward the end of the season. The grapplers posted an 8-3-1 mark despite the injury jinx, but their tournament hopes were shattered when only two regulars remained in the starting line-up. The problems began the summer before the grap season got underway when second unit wrestler Joe Schanz was killed in an auto accident. Then the injuries began to arise. Willie Saloky suffered a fractured skull in a street fight after the second match of the season (and after a personal 2-0 record). Ralph Cindrich, top heavy-weight, was declared out for the season because of a football injury. Mark Payne, considered the most talented wrestler on the team, incurred the wrath of the NCAA rules comittee when he insisted on sporting shoulder-length hair. He was suspended from the line-up, but he eventually visited a barber and returned for one match before once again leaving the team - this time permanently for personal reasons. Mark's brother Randy, Navy Plebe champion and runner-up in the Nationals in 1969-70, withdrew from school at the time of his brother's resignation from the team. And there were more injuries — Steve Weiss, another ex-Plebe winner, was sidelined with a knee injury, and Bud Smeltz was put out of the line-up at times by a back injury.

Dave Young and Craig Trite h switched off at 190 and heavyweight, but also spent time on the sidelines with injuries. So, obviously, when tourney time came at the end of the winter season, head coach Dave Adams couldn't expect anything close to the possible Eastern and National championships which were more than pipe dreams prior to the beginning of the year. The squad finished ninth at the Easterns and placed only two grapplers in the National tourney. Those two matmen were Kuhn and Jim Flemming, but neither wrestler could place in the top finishers at the NCAAs, a particular disappointment for Kuhn who ranked sixth the year before. ATHLETICS ■ WRESTLING The word for Pitt track since Jim Banner became head coach in 1966 has been triumphant, and 1970-71 proved to be no exception. Indoors, Banner's track men made a run at perennial Eastern Champion Villa-nova and placed second in the IC4A's. They then finished eighth nationally for the second year in a row. Vet the 1970-71 season marked the end of an era, as Jerry Richey, Bryan Salter, and Smittie Brown concluded spectacular careers which included re-writing the Pitt record books. While contributing a major share, this trio of seniors did not account for all” of the Pitt track successes. Hope for the future appeared in the forms of Bill Rea (jumping), Dorel Watley (mid-distance), and Dan Kouvolo (javelin). On February 24, headlines were made as Richey and Brown were joined by Watley and John Aiken in a Distance Medley Relay race at the Delaware Invitational. The quartet exploded to break a world record - an accomplishment which comes along once in a lifetime for even the best of college coaches. Richey wound up his career by gaining two All-American ratings. Richey is from the Pittsburgh area, and the predominance of local talent on Banner's squad amazed him as he talked about the '70-71 competition. Of the twenty-five athletes who competed regularly for Banner during the year, twenty-two of them were from Western Pennsylvania. AIM LEI It'S ■ I RACK Dick Bradshaw borrowed some words from Charles Dickens to describe the 1970-71 Pitt swimming season! It was the worst of times; it was the best of times, said Bradshaw, who began the year as the assistant swim coach and ended it as the head coach. For a while it appeared that it would only be the worst of times, as the swimmers protested, swam and lost, and finally quit the team. And eventually, with three meets remaining on the schedule, head coach Bill Grant resigned for personal reasons which had much to do with the complaints of the swimmers. The team kept losing and the swimmers gripes revolved around Grant. Swimmers said their coach didn't recruit, didn't plan workouts, didn't turn in line-ups early enough, didn't maintain rapport with the team members, and don't know how to correct strokes. Grant denied the allegations, but eventually reached the decision to step down. The swimmers surpisingly won tw of their remaining meets unde Bradshaw, as the times of all mem bers improved (including five c those who left the squad unde Grant, only to return when Brae shaw assumed reins of the team). Under Bradshaw, four swimmei and one diver competed in the Eas ern Seaboard championships an broke five school records, thoug I OpjH). 37 56 Bucknell West Virginia 76 48 Penn State! 6% m 42 Temple V 65 American 48% m 40 Maryland 71 59 f Grove City 5M1 64 1 49 Syracuse 34 Kent State : 79 75 Akron i nishing far behind the top entrants. enior diver, Dave VVessel, missed ie Easterns because of dent school, ut he wound up his career for Pitt t the Nationals and placed 39th in field of 69. •fficially, Bradshaw was the Acting oach during the final weeks of le season, but the Athletic Director amed him head coach about a lonth after the swim season colluded. Something was a little different for the gymnastics team this year. The rarity? - Coach Warren Neiger possessed a squad with depth in 1970-71. five seniors, a junior, and five sophomore let-terman. With this excess of bodies, then, the gym coach had reason to believe his team would produce its first winning season in five years. Instead, the gymnasts' overall performance wasn't any different from the past. At the season's end the record was an unexpected 2-8. Once again, the only truly proud moments were supplied by Lowell Meek, who completed his Pitt career with another regular season of undefeated competi- tion (his second in two years). Meek also successfully defended his Eastern championship in free exercise, while the Pitt squad placed seventh in ar eight team field. Meek went on tc Michigan University as Pitt's only representative to the NCAA finals anc scored highest in the optional routine of the free exercise. A poor showing in the compulsory exercise, however, prevented Meel from claiming a national title. Witf Meek and the other four seniors leav ing, Neiger won't have the comfort o depth next year. But, somehow, a 2-1 record seems to make that com for insignificant.

As ice hockey was just beginning to become successful on the professional level in Pittsburgh, it shouldn't be surprising that a group of hockey enthusiasts at Pitt rapidly became as successful as the varsity teams while competing on the club level. Thanks to the help of an outsider, Wade Welsh of the Alpine Ice Chalet who coached the Pitt Ice Hockey Team , the group played eight games and posted a 4-3-1 record against opposition which was more established in every instance. Freshman Joe Testa founded the squad. It is now struggling financially, but it hopes to someday become an official varsity sport. ATHLETICS • ICE HOCKEY The Pin rifle team dropped from a 10-4 record in 1969-70 to a 5-9 mark in 1970-71. In the process, the squad slipped from a first to a fifth place finish in the seven-member West-Penn Rifle Conference. As in the past, the riflemen were hurt by a lack of steady coaching. Sgt. Bill Fausey of ROTC was the part-time mentor this year, and he represented the fourth rifle coach at Pitt in four years. All of the coaches have come from ROTC where the annual turnover rate is extremely high. The ritiers' five wins were established by beating CMU, Grove City, and Washington and Jefferson once each, and Genva twice. At the sectionals, which were held at the riflers' home range, the team placed seventh in a field of eighteen. Top shooters in '70-71 were senior Bill Crooks, juniors Bruce Barrett and Wade Robertson, sophomore Tim Schmidt and freshman Howard Ash-brook. 1H IE I ICS ■ RIFLE There were five separate leagues in the three major intramural sports during 1970-71. Softball, football and basketball teams competed in the Grad-Fac, the Fraternity, the Dormitory, the Engineering and the Independent leagues. Only the Independent division didn't run competition for an overall classification champion. But the battles were fierce in the other four leagues: GRAD-FAC: Economics took the overall Grad-Fac division crown with 475 points. Although Econ only won one championship (volleyball) its consistent performances in all events earned the title. The Junior Dents (409 pts.) and Baker's Raiders (350 pts.) garnered titles in basketball and football, respectively. FRATERNITY: Phi Gamma Delta (Fiji) dominated the frat athletic circuit. On their way to capturing the All-Sports Trophy awarded to the fraternity accumulating the highest point total in IM competition, the Fiji's captured three championships - football, basketball and wrestling. Pi Kappa Alpha won track and volleyball titles in the frat competition, while Phi Kappa Theta took a first place in swimming, and Delta Tau Delta conquered the other softball teams. DORM: Sutherland House rolled to the overall dormitory honors, gaining first places in basketball and football. Mad House won the softball championship and finished second to Sutherland in the overall league standings. ENGINEER. The Civil Engineers, tallying 662 points, nearly doubled the point production of the runner-up Mechanical Engineers (348 pts.) as the Civils romped to the Engineering division crown. The Civils won the cage competition and the Mechanics triumphed on the gridiron. There were three All-Campus team champions. Made House overpowered the opposition on its way to the softball title. Baker's Raiders prevailed over Sutherland in sudden death to capture the football crown. And the Black Flashed became the All-Campus basketball quintet by emerging as the only undefeated team out of a record 77 which competed in 1971.

The prospects appeared sound since basically the same Panther team was in contention until the final week of the competition the year before. Coach Bobby Lewis' milters, as expected, were among the best in 71, but their 18-8 record once again was only enough for a close miss at tourney nomination. A late season double header loss to Penn State was the disastrous blow which cancelled out the previous efforts of the season. Penn State (10-4 at selection time) was named to the NCAA playoffs. However, the Pitt squad did win the Turnpike Tourney of Cleveland, Ohio during the season. The 71 season, with its close miss, ran primarily as expected with a few exceptions. Pitt's only losses from the 1970 season were in the infield, but replacements Ken Mach a (first base), Boab Livingston (second base) and Terry Stokes came through well enough to be named to the third annual Tri-State Baseball Coaches Association All-Star game. Other Panthers selected to the game were pitcher Mike Niccols, right fielder Bob Solo-nickne, and catcher Guy Capzarelli. This was the third consecutive All-Star game for Solo-nickne, the Pitt captain. This year's mound staff had a good deal of depth. In addition to Niccols fine performance as the Panther's top pitcher, Mike Fedoris, the number four starter, fired a no-hitter late in the season. This was Pitt's first in sixteen years. 11 ATHLETICS ■ BASEBALL Based on individual performance, the tennis season could be termed successful. The original squad squeezed a victory out of the tough W.V.U. rivals for openers. Then, top player Joel Hurwitz received a job offer as a senatorial page in Harrisburg and decided to leave the team. Recruit Mike Pines, also quit in favor of a job opportunity and number two man, Mike O’Loughlin, went on tour with the Pitt Men's Glee Club for a week. A depth problem ensued and the team lost the next four meets by wide margins. In cross-city competition the tennis players defeated Duquesne, but lost to the always powerful C.M.U. squad in a battle of close sets. At the inauguration of the Big Four Tennis Meet at Penn State, the Pitt netmen failed to score, but Coach Fran Webster felt that new number one man, Gary Schwartz, put in a good showing , and that the rest of the team, saw some good tennis played. The remainder of the season was disappointing, with most of the matches being lost by wide margins. The season record was 2-13. However, every player had some taste of victory during the season. Jorge Gutierrez won only one singles match during the year, but it was a memorable one. Against Flir-am, Gutierrez outlasted his opposition, 21-19, in a deciding set - that's a Pitt longevity record. Gutierrez also teamed with Schwartz to form the most productive Pitt doubles team and netted three wins in 71. ATHLETICS � TENNIS The Pitt golfers, after losing their opening and closing games, still managed to record their greatest season in years. The linksmen, suffering their first defeat of the season at the hands of W.V.U., recovered to defeat Bucknell and Clarion. Unfortunately, Indiana University defeated the local boys in stroke play, but Pitt followed by defeating Duqesne, a local rival. The golfers traveled to State College for the Big A Championship with Syracuse, W.V.U., and host Penn State. However, the golfers escaped with a second place. The linksmen then traveled to defeat St. Vincents College ind returned home for a victory over Cleveland State. The following week the Pitt golfers conquered Allegheny College, but this victory was followed by a defeat to Westminister College. At this point, sporting a 6-2 record, it appeared the golfers were challenging Penn State for the Eastern Championship. However, the Panthers folded in the clutch and finished 13th. Then on to the Indiana State Golf Tourney, where Pitt hoped to find their winning groove again against the four school competition, but Pitt placed only third in the tourney. The Pitt golfers closed their season against Navy, losing in medal play. One bright point of the season. Freshman, Steve Kosalac was elected MVP of the year by his fellow players. ATHLETICS ■ GOIF Five women's teams competed on the varsity level in 1970-71, and as expected there was the mixture of success and failure. The women's tennis team highlighted the competition among the women representing Pitt. The girl netters, under the guidance of Goldie Edwards compiled an impressive 10-0 record against established teams. Miss Edwards, by the way, is a nationally ranked tennis and squash player. Senior tennis star Elaine Kingas, Pitt's number two player, was invited to the Eastern tournament, but could not attend because of midterm scheduling. The women's basketball team was also unbeatable in '71 -after their first two games, as they won their last nine to register a 9-2 season. The high point of the year was an upset victory against top rival Slippery Rock. A last second basket by |an Klause pushed the girl cagers past the Rockets, 44-42. The women's swimming team couldn't compile a record comparable to the basketball and tennis players, but the Virginia Grindle-coached swimmers were able to break a few records while splashing to a 2-3 season. Five consecutive mid-season wins saved the women's field hockey team from a disastrous season which opened and closed on a losing (and tying) note. The girls' season record was five wins, three losses, two ties — with all of the losses and ties coming at the beginning or end of the year. The women's gymnastic team was not as fortunate and finished 70-71 with a losing mark of two wins and four losses. ATHLETICS ■ WOMEN , V Is. 'iT A jsr-B! fe; 1 'W Z'x t afo % : ATHLETICS ■ CATHEDRAl SI’OKIS I I Pill athletics is not confined to the Stadium and Field House. Often, on a late autumn afternoon, students battle for a football in front of Heinz Chapel, or foreign students chase a soccer ball on the lower Cathedral lawn. Even the Towers' Patio is the scene of many frisbee tournaments among dorm students. In an urban university outside recreation areas are often scarce, and what little exists is vanishing due to the University being forced to expand in a limited area. With the gym and playing fields at such an inconvenient location, students need a Cathedral lawn. There are three basic types of groups at Pitt, the publications, the honoraries, and the organizations. They are all alike in that the student can participate in varying degrees. For some students, a group is only a name on a graduate school application, while for others, it is their focal point at Pitt. But, as with courses, the amount of learning and experience that a group offers depends on the interest and work of the member. Another similarity is the financial problems faced by most groups which centers around operating on limited budgets and fighting for allocations. The financial problems of all groups are reified by the University bureaucracy and union control of services. The groups must alwyas deal with the University under a purchasing system which puts student organizations at a disadvantage. University departments and other groups seem pitted against one another in an effort to assert their own importance. The one most guilty group is the new Student Association whose leaders want great amounts of money and control, usually at the sake of other groups. One thing is certain, belonging to a group can be a great learning experience, profitable experience, ego experience, or as for many, a frustrating experience.

This approach is rooted in traditional journalistic ethics. But it also represents a rebellion from the pompour myopia of establishment types which students find repugnant. Recognizing that it is a mini-establishment, the Pitt News has avoided pat creeds, whether they emanate from conservatives or freaks.

Instead, the publication will try to present crucial and relevant issues not only of significance to the University community, but also of importance to people everywhere. For this reason, there won't be the standard list of campus organizations in the Polaris, but rather it is hoped that the issues presented will be enough to spark activism and interest in the freshmen. TY AND 5NERATI0N SKYSCRAPER ENGINEER Ov lnd pcnd nt ShwJtntt skyscraper engineer The Skyscraper Engineer is the official publication of the School of Engineering. Basically, this magazine contains material written by students and professors and is of a technical nature. However, this was a year of change for the Skyscraper. Perhaps the best way to describe it is, heart . There were more in depth articles about the role of engineers in the betterment of mankind along with articles questioning existing engineering practices on and off the campus. Along with these changes, the editor out of respect for his magazine, his profession, women, and himself decided not to print the much disputed technicutie .

The Commuter Association was established to make the University Community more aware of the problems faced by the more than six thousand students who commute. This year the CA endeavored to solve parking problems, help arrange the erection of two bus shelters, hold social events for commuters, and get the University to provide more facilities. In addition, we published a newspaper. The Mag c Bus, which helped create an awareness of commuter problems on campus. commuter association Pictured are: sitting, M. Hurwitz, A Soloman, |.

With the addition of men in McCormick Hall this year. Men's Dorm Council extended its influence from the Towers Complex into the Quad. MDC serves both cultural and conforming purposes, sponsoring a range of activities such as speakers, TGIF's, and intramural sports competition between houses. Freedom is the key word for the dorms, now, with 24 hour open houses for both men and women and MDC in conjunction with Women's Housing Board provided the major impetus for these reforms. men's dorm council GROUPS ■ ORGANIZATION associated women students Involvement was a key word for A.W.S. this year. In September, we sponsored Feminist Symposium which brought in such noted women as Sheila Tobias, Florence Howe, and Angela Schreiber. The Activities Fair was jointly sponsored by A.W.S., giving students a chance to find out ways they can become involved. Political involvement was expressed through A.W.S. co-sponsorship of Politico 70, a program which brought to Pitt several candidates for city and statewide offices. Northern Ireland's spirited member of Parliament, Bernadette Devlin, spoke at Pitt under the sponsorship of A.W.S. Also the traditional programs of A.W.S., such as Lantern Night and Freshman Council contin-used to be part of the group's activities. pitt road racing team Pitt has America's first university road racing team. Sponsored by American Oil, Pepsi Cola, and Goodyear, the Camero has several victories to its name. It has been entered in rough competition such as the Bridehampton Nationals in New York, the Trans America Race in Limerock, Connecticut, and the Cumberland fransam in Cumberland, Md. The Pitt Road Racing Team is not just a club or group of people - it is a team, and the victories and honors are not won by the machine and driver alone. Scheduling, sponsorship, accomodations, testing, transportation, and publicity are only a few of the duties of the team. The Road Racing Team was led this year by driver Bob Fryer and business manager Robert Lederman. GROUPS ■ ORGANIZATIONS Pictured are: Row f - S. Hughes, I. Dorsey. S Dupell. D. Sciulli, O. Stewart.

In recent years it has become one of the most innovative groups of its kind throughout the nation. This year, in addition to its two successful home concerts, the Glee Club took weekend tours to eastern Pennsylvania and New York. The season climaxed with a week-long tour during which the Glee Club carried the University's name to schools in Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Wherever they appeared, enthusiastic audiences greeted the Club with rousing applause. On the latest tour, the Glee Club received three standing ovations. The Glee Club is under the capable direction of Phillip Cavanaugh, a young musicologist who graduated from Indiana State and Columbia Universities. Mr. Cavanaugh is currently completing his doctorate in musicology at Pitt. engineering cabinet As the representative body governing all engineering undergraduates the Cabinet controls such areas as interdepartmental athletics, the Benedum Hall lockers and lounge, the ESCIT Award for overseas summer employment, the Outstanding Senior Award, and freshman orientation for engineers. The organization also has a voice in the school's curriculum policies, the activities of Engineer's Week, the publication of the Engineering Bulletin, and the funding of the Skyscraper Engineer. This year Engineering Student Cabinet concentrated its efforts on Engineer's Week and the dedication of Benedum Hall - the new home for Pitt's eight engineering departments. The most important policy change proposed by Cabinet was an overhaul of the Liberal Arts program for engineers.

GROUPS ■ ORGANIZATIONS cheerleaders Whether in front of a crowd at a football game or a pep rally, the cheerleaders are the source of enthusiasm and spirit for the Pitt athletic teams. In blue and gold, these spunky individuals initiate the cheers at the football and basketball games. Aided by the antics of the costumed Panther, the cheerleaders attempt to intensify the enthusiasm of the student body and to keep it at a fever pitch until the final seconds of the game. The girls also participate in Freshman Camp, Orientation Week, and aid in public relations promotions. The squad is chosen on the basis of ability, appearance, and poise. student union board The Student Union Board is a programming organization relying on the creativity, imagination, and effort of its students and staff members.

Route 8 goes south to Interstate 80. It is a two-year campus with most of its classes being held in old McKinney Hall, a mansion which was bequeathed to the University. In addition, there are the Bennett Davis Memorial Labs, housed only a half-block away. Girls town-houses are a new idea in university housing, with each townhouse being a separate apartment housing eight girls. Plans for the expansion of the campus are presently being made. bradford campus The Bradford Campus of the University of Pittsburgh offers resident and out-of-state students an atmosphere of a small rural college, while still maintaining the highest standards of quality in education. It is presently working to become an integral part of the Bradford community, and offers part-time and evening courses to those who wish to further their education at the University. Progress al the Greensburg Campus has not so tar been reflected by the erection of new buildings, but recent General State Authority appropriation promises a multipurpose building in the near future. In the meantime, some other signs of growth can be seen. The faculty indicated a desire to organize its own senate to handle issues not covered by the senate at the main campus. The Greensburg Senate, which has been operating since the Fall Term, includes students as participating members both at senate meetings and on senate committees. In the academic picture, students found several new courses this year, including Black Lit and Comparative Lit courses, the sociology of work, and comparative political theory. The increasing library collection is a definite aid to students. Its growth is indicated by a move to larger quarters in order to accommodate the holdings. While engineering majors enjoyed the use of new lab facilities, biology students, as a result or an agreement with Seton Hill College, utilized Seton Hill's labs. This arrangement served to eliminate evening lab periods. Budding journalists received credit while working on the campus paper. The Forum, by enrolling in a journalism seminar. Aspiring dramatists, under the direction of lack Zaharia of the Applehill Playhouse, presented You Know I Can't Hear You When the Water's Running. The varsity basketball team, in its second year, doubled its schedule and achieved a commendable 14-11 record. Jim Kubicek was named Most Valuable Player of the Regional Campus Tournament. Community involvement, which has increased in importance to the University, was the purpose for the organization of the Environmental Awareness Committee with membership open to students, faculty, and citizens of Westmoreland County.

The College RA, Mentor, Quo Vadis, WHB Most Greeks would say that fraternities and sororities exist primarily to provide members with friends, a sense of belonging to a group, and an outlet for social-group activities (such as parties, projects, and sports). Perhaps more importantly, Greek organizations provide for and encourage involvement in college life both within and outside the group. Once an individual has gotten in with a group, it is much easier to get going in other things because of the contacts made and the security and experience gained. Furthermore, it seems that there would be a real need for Greek groups on a large, impersonal campus. If it is accepted that large numbers of people want friends, a group to belong to, a place for activities, and a sense of involvement, then it is not so easy to understand why the number of people attending Greek rush has not increased as the size of the student body has grown, and why the Greek system is relatively less important in campus life now than it was a few years ago. Internally (in terms of the relationships within an individual Greek house) and externally (in terms of what being a Greek means in the rest of campus life), the Greek system is profoundly different today than it was a few years ago. The changes which have taken place in the owl looks at greeks he Greek system directly parallel he changes in the University as a vhole, and they stem from the radially different make-up of the stolen t body. ears ago it cost to be a Greek, and student paid with money, time, nd emotional energy. The product or sale, then, was very often a way f life which was to some extent oticeably different than for those ho did not pay. The largest group •f customers was to be found mong those students who came om far away, and among those ho came to involve themselves in ie life of the University (these were Men the same people). The thing of lasting importance was not the “status of being a Greek, but the difference in terms of having a separate identity. To be a Greek was to have a home, both physically and socially, away from a former home. The number of people who come to Pitt from far away has declined in recent years, and so this important Greek market has shrunk. In addition, many people who wish to involve themselves in the University are not choosing to follow the Greek route. The Greek system has no control over who comes to school, and if the reason that people are not choosing the Greek route to involvement is because the price, either in terms of money, time, or emotional energy, is too high, there is, again, little that can be done. However, there may be those who refuse to join because they do not like the product being offered, and those who, after they make an initial purchase, become disenchanted with what they thought and drop out. What is most important to understand is that years ago there was a great demand for what the Greek system had to offer within itself, and there was little questioning of the nature of the product. However, the demand is now considerably smaller, and there are a lot more questions being asked about what is being offered for sale. As such, the Greeks have been forced. both from within (in terms of keeping people in the group), and without (in terms of getting people to join the group), to appeal to a much wider variety of customers than ever before. Greeks, like the University, have become much more service-oriented in recent years and the feeling that there exists, or should exist a separate Greek identity is much less widespread or strongly felt. Among the many Greek stereotypes which are widely believed, two are of special importance. They are the ones which hold that Greeks demand conformity and subservience, and it is during the pledge period that they are most clearly in evidence. Pledging is the single most important thing a Greek house has to attend to, and the pledge period is analogous to raising children (it is no accident that fraternities and sororities have pledge fathers” and mothers ). It is a time in which the prospective member is taught what it means to be a Greek, and it is also the time in which the older members of an organization impart to the new people the special significance of that particular group. It was the time in which the pledge was molded to fit into the Greek way of life, but it is no longer so. Greeks no longer mold their pledges because they feel people will not submit themselves to be molded, and because there is no agreement within any group as to what a pledge should look like, or whether a process of molding should take place at all. Every Greek house at Pitt goes to great lengths to emphasize the diversity which exists within each house in an effort to dispel the image of demanding conformity. Physical hazing of pledges, the hallmark of the college fraternity, has entirely disappeared within the last four years, and just about every fraternity has modified its pledging so as to encourage the integration of the pledge into the brotherhood as quickly as possible and with minimum restriction. Similarly, formal pledging requirements, which used to mark the typical sorority, have been eliminated in favor of a much more informal, friendship-encouraging environment. There is a distinct trend towards the abolition of the pledge period in its entirety, and the substitution of an associate-member status, and the object of this is to bring the pledge into the group and away from the subservient role as quickly as possible. This revolution in the form and substance of pledging has not been accomplished entirely without strife within individual groups. Many older members felt that to eliminate the rigorous pledging program would serve to undermine the foundation of group stability, as fewer and fewer demands were placed upon the pledge. If pledges were not forced to sacrifice something to get into the group, then there would be a loss of group pride, and a reduced willingness to work hard for group improvement in later years. The old-style Greek group leaned heavily on the concept of “pledge-class unity , and a definitive pledge-role was thought necessary to foster such a group feeling. The pledge is no longer the one who cleans up after the brothers and runs out to get food at night. There are few formal pledge activities, and fewer still which a pledge is required to attend. Groups now emphasize cooperation between older and np ver people, and mem- bers are supposed to pitch in and help with everything that used to be done by pledges. The fact that such a larger number of pledges are also commuting students has much to do with the shift in the role of the pledge. Because commuters have a host of other roles which they must continue to play, it is especially hard to bring them all together and to command their full commitment. What has happened is that the Greek “family has become a much more equalitarian group, and much more conscious of serving the individual needs of its members and pledges. Many groups have also reacted to the stereotype of the socially un-concerned (or even conservative) Greek, by emphasizing the social- and community-service projects that each group carries out, and the trend is towards group sponsorship of cultural and social affairs for the membership to a much larger extent than before. All of this is in the direction of offering more to the Greek member in the way of individual development. However, while the Greek system has been reacting to the pressure of serving a wide variety of demands, so has the University been responding to the same pressures. As the internal structure of the Greek system has loosened up and expanded to accommodate many different kinds of values, so has the University expanded, and the effect has been to blur the lines separating the Greeks from the rest of campus life. While it is true that Greek Week is the single most successful social event of the year, and that it is the Greeks who set up the booths and make the floats and cheer the athletic teams, it is also true that all of these social activities are only important to special interest groups and much less important in the total life of the school. The Greeks have become, rather than a dominant influence. another special interest group. What is critically important to understand here is that it has been the social expansion of the University which has caused the relative decline in the importance of being Greek at Pitt. In addition to it no longer being necessary to be Greek in order to get involved and lead the major campus organizations, it is no longer necessary to join a fraternity or sorority to get in with a group of people with similar values - there are many more such groups on campus now because there are many more values (life styles) which are finding expression. Membership in a Greek group is now one membership among many; it is one more place to go to get out of the college experience what a student wants. The fact that pledges no longer are required to wear a special kind of uniform to let the campus know that they are Greeks symbolizes the decline of a separate group identity, and the fact that Greek Week can no longer be held without a large contribution from the Student Activities Fee further weakens the boundary line. Ethnic background, formerly the singlemost important qualification for membership, is not nearly as important as it used to be, nor can it be in the future. It is ironic that as the Greek system has become progressively more open, it has come to resemble more closely other campus groups. By stressing cultural and social activities, social service projects, and involvement in campus life, the Greek system places itself in direct competition with the expanding University. The result is that it seems to the student that it is friends that cost money. Everything else is available elsewhere, and for free. The personal meaning of being a Greek in 1971, however, is exactly the same as it was in 1967 - it means to belong to a group and share a group identity. What has changed is that there are many more such groups at Pitt now than ever before, so that any one group is less important in the total scene, and that there are fewer people who are willing, or able, to make such an all-inclusive' commitment to one group as was formerly true. The fact that pledges no longer are kidnapped and left out in Plum Boro, or are made to pay a fine for not having a date does not necessarily mean that people will be any less involved in Greek life. Rather, it seems that the form and or substance of pledging is largely irrelevant if someone really wants to join or remain in the group. The same may be said of Greek housing - it is the group itself and not the physical container which is of lasting importance. In recent years, many houses have experienced sharp internal conflicts concerning drug use (drug use in a Greek house may result in the disbanding of a chapter), and how each house should deal with the issue. Many members chose to dis-affiliate during the original clash between life- ' issue has since been accommodated. In addition to dryg use and the natural dis-affiliation rate within each group (usually older people finding other interests), there is the money involved. It has always been true that out-of-staters come from families with higher incomes than do instaters, so perhaps there are fewer people coming to Pitt who can afford to become Greeks. The Greek system, contrary to popular opinion, has not died at the University of Pittsburgh. Nor should anyone hold their breath while waiting for its expiration. There will be people who will want the basic things that being a Greek has to offer, and people who will want to commit themselves to maintaining the organization. There will also be a need for the Greek system at Pitt, though less of a need than in the past. Greeks, except perhaps for their pride, have not been severely wounded. It very simply has, since it is part of a changing University, adapted itself to a different environment. Panhellenic Council is the unifying force behind the 13 sororities on the Pitt campus. In the past year Pan-Hel realized the need for the Greek system to adapt to the changing mood on the college campus, and implemented this change through greater involvement in University and community service projects. Within the system itself Pan-Hel made improvements on the rushing and pledging procedures in order to benefit the individual interested in joining a social sorority. It instituted the Kush Counselor program, aimed at aiding freshmen women having questions concerning the Greek System. As in the past, Pan-Hel was co-sponsor, with I.F.C., of Greek Week, which offers a time for the Pitt sororities and fraternities to relax and have fun while working together for the various events of the week.

It is a blending of many persons, their varied ideas and personalities, united by a common bond of friendship. It is this friendship that spurs the sisters on to a myriad of activities. Looking back on the past year ADPi activities included participation in campus events, such as Winter Weekend and Greek Week, working together on charity projects, and the enjoyment of social events, including the annual Black and White Formal.

The fall term found the sisters initiating a charity project with the brothers of ZBT involving children of the South Oakland Community Center. Socially the highlight of the fall was the Parents Weekend affair held at the Bigelow Restaurant. Returning after term break AEPhi bounded back by repeating their Rent-An-AEPhi program for the benefit of American Indians, during Winter Weekend. Greek Week 1971 proved successful for the girls of green and white as they sang their way to third place in Greek Sing, and one of the sisters, Patty Brown was named Greek Week Talent Queen. This year ended with the Spring Affair which included a dinner and play at the Playhouse. “A whole is nothing more than the sum of many parts, and so are we in Delta Zeta. Individuality is important in Delta Zeta as each girl contributes something of herself to the group. Through DZ she experiences friendship, spirit, and many good times. Besides participating in Homecoming, Winter Weekend, and Greek Week, Delta Zeta held a parent's brunch, sponsored a hogie sale for Children's Hospital and worked with the Pittsburgh Hearing and Speech Society. We had our fun and good times at our Christmas dinner dance, our Spring Formal on the Party Liner, at mixeis and by just being together. Sharing our activities with each other encouraged many girls to become active on campus. One sister was Pan Hel President and next year one sister will be President of AWS. DZ's were also active as Mentors, Cwens, in Quo Vadis, and the Pitt News. Delta Zeta is hard to describe since it's all of us together giving something different to make Delta Zeta a whole.

Our sisterhood and spirit have become stronger through social events, community service projects, and sorority goals. We honored our pledges with an annual semi-formal dinner-dance in the fall and a formal dinner in the winter. Our mothers and alums were invited to a tea in our suite with a handwriting analyst as entertainment. We also invited a few guys who are particular friends to membership in a Big Brother Club. We had tw'o cookie sales for Cystic Fibrosis and a painting party at the Home for Crippled Children co-sponsored with ZBT as our service projects for the year. Pictured are: S. Kotovsky, I.

In the garden. The Flower does not lose its identity — it still grows free and individually but it grows with the other flowers and learns to share nature's elements with them.

The year started out with the usual mixers and the annual Pi Lam Spaghetti Dinner. With the help of the brothers of Zeta Beta Tau, the sorority took first place with their Homecoming Display. The weekend was climaxed by one of the sisters, Anne Thomas, being crowned Homecoming Queen. Winter Kush brought nineteen new Thetas, one of the largest pledge classes the sisters have taken. The new pledges, along with the active sisters, participated in the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade,«collecting money for the Heart Fund. Greek Week also proved to be profitable, with MaryAnn Gunneslman capturing first runner-rup in the Queen's Contest. As for the academic achievement, the Theta's president, Cherelyn Mance was elected to Phi Beta Kjppa. Other Thetas were honored by being chosen for Thyrsa Amos. With these achievements in mind, the sisters of Kappa Alpha Theta expect continued success in the coming year. Pictured are: Row 1 - M. E. Pohl, M. Scuro. I. Ebner, |. Bilewicz, K. Hanna, Row 2 - ).

Through activities that reflect the varied interests of the chapter members, the Kappas strengthen their own bonds of friendship and enlarge their total experience at Pitt through meeting people on campus and in the community. A friendship group can fulfill the need for each individual to have her unique identity recognized by every other member of the group, thus there is greater opportunity to make use of individual talents and ideas. The most obvious characteristic of Kappa Kappa Gamma is the variety of girls in the chapter. The makes being a Kappa that much more of a learning experience. Who are we? What did we do this past year? Blending laughter, silences, tears, smiles. We join as individuals into a group. Scrambling eggs at Sunday brunches for parents - friends. Chewing pizzas at a mixer while watching a movie. Packing eight people into a V.W. to see Hair . Putting on once-a-year dresses for Final Parties while reciting our lines. Joining hands at Kush parties to sing goodbye to new-found friends. Standing on corners shouting Balloons - Peanuts! for UNICEF . Walking back from a workshop at Delta Phi covered with paint. Stringing crepe paper with ZBT around our First Prize booth at the carnival. As time flowed, we, as a group, lived life this past year, only because our seifs contributed to the whole.

Phi Sig Spirit , was abundant this past year, and was evidenced in all Phi Sig activities. Linked with this spirit was the bond of sisterhood that tied the distinct personalities of the group together. Phi Sigs were active in several campus organizations, including Women's Choral and Women's Judicial board, and they participated in campus events, such as Winter Weekend and Greek Week. All in all it was a good year for the sisters of Phi Sigma Sigma; one which gave prophecy of great years to come. Chi Omega offers many things to many people. Chi O. is having fun at parties and mixers. It is also interested people working on community service and charity projects. But most of all Chi Omega is a melting pot of ideas, thoughts, and personalities channeled toward understanding and friendliness to all, which shines forth in any endeavors undertaken by Chi Omega.

The year started off by the brothers sharing themselves with interested men in a successful fall rush, which added new faces and varied personalities to the group. Throughout the year Delts enjoyed many great parties, mixers, and who could forget Monday nights at the Luna. They joined forces in participating in intramural athletic contests, and in working with the sisters of Kappa Alpha Theta during the events of Greek Week. Perhaps, the greatest experience of the year was the sharing of friendship with each other. Pictured are: Row 1 — D. Kennedy, G. Critchlow, I. Drake, P. Yuna, E. Hoho$, P. Carey, I.

Following their success of last year, the Zeebs returned in September to take the largest pledge class on campus. Through the year, they took first place in Homecoming, Winter Weekend, and Games People Play competitions. In Greek Week they took third. The Beta Phi chapter also received an award for their academic success from the National Interfraternity Council. It was given them for placing among the top twenty chapters in the country with a quality point average that was more than 30% above the national all-men's average. With diversity as their keynote, ZBT tries to appeal to as wide a range of individuals as possible through their social, athletic, and community service projects. This year has brought many beneficial changes to Pi Lambda Phi. Winter Weekend highlighted the activities, along with avid participation in the intramural sports program. Homecoming, and Greek Week. The fraternity also boasts a high scholastic average with members of the Druids, Omicron Delta Kappa, the Pitt News, the William Penn Debate Union, and several members of the Student Government. There exists a feeling of transition, that continues to grow and ensure the basis of genuine brotherhood. Row - M. Chosky. D. Delgrasso, F. Mohn, A Liprnan. D. Tamburo, |. Waldman, R Hell. S.

I riAo The past year was quite successful for the brothers of Fiji, not only while acting as a single unity, but also through individual activities. While working together the brothers pooled their athletic abilities and earned the I.F.C. all sports trophy for accumulating the highest number of points among the 16 fraternities in intramural competition. The brothers scored again this year by winning the over-all Greek Week Trophy, while working with the sisters of Chi Omega. Socially the group enjoyed many great parties and mixers throughout the year. Individually, members were represented in many campus activities and also were elected to Druids, ODK, and Order of Omega honoraries. Success for a fraternity cannot be measured by trophies and honors alone and Fiji's success was best shown through its fraternalism and brotherhood which extends to all its members.

FINAL COMMENTS T JLh he 1971 Owl is, as is every other yearbook a direct reflection of the personal style of its Editor. Chip's desire to make this Yearbook represent much more of Pitt than just his particular viewpoint is both the heart and soul of the Owl approach, and the theme of all the innovations introduced in the writing, photographing, and financing of this year's work. Chip's style brought together a very large and very active staff, with many individuals making important contributions. Sy Adler, the Associate Editor, earned the respect of many people through his work, advice, insight, sleepless nights, and great energies. Perhaps his most important contribution was his 25-page computerized market research report. As a result of it. The Owl learned that yearbooks, in a form such as this one is, may still have some value. But, to list all of Sy's accomplishments would take up too much space. Cindy Currens and Alan Siegal accomplished a most difficult task — they created a business office and staff that brought The Owl from a large debt back to being a profitable publication. Their sales campaigns, money raising techniques, and budget streamlinings served to solidify the financial future of the Yearbook. Paul Salva had three important achievements: he demonstrated his ability to take quality photographs, both color and black-and-white; he processed all the color photography in this volume; and. he restructured the Photo Office, a source of financial waste, into an efficiently running program with happier photographers. David Bal-dovski was responsible for many of the layouts which appear in this book, and his technical knowledge was extremely helpful throughout the production process. Karen Smith, whose knowledge of yearbook affairs ranged from business to editing, performed many vital functions for The Owl during 1971. 002494847 Two people from the American Yearbook Company, Sylvan Pinto, sales representative, and Mark R. Stewart, plant artist, helped in many ways. Sylvan, in response to The Owl's need to cut costs, arranged for the production of this book at a rate we could afford. Mark possessed an insight into The Owl concept which enabled him to create on paper that which were vague thoughts in our minds. Bernie Koperak, of the University's Office of Development and Alumni Affairs, was responsible for allowing us to make the Yearbook available to many of Pitt's former graduates. These are some of the individuals who have contributed, but there are many more who worked hard to make this book what it is. We deeply regret that these people will remain nameless, but this should not detract from their efforts. Throughout all this. Chip Berger served as coordinator in bringing together all these diverse activities, to make The 1971 Owl the comprehensive Yearbook we hope it is. If this book gains the approval of the people of the University of Pittsburgh, then we will all of us, the 1971 staff, share the credit. The Owl, 1971, is printed on 80= True White Enamel paper. The type lace is Optima. It was printed by the offset lithographic process of the American Yearbook Company, Cambridge, Md. All halftone color reproduction is in 150 line screen. Senior pictures were taken by Delma Studios of New York City. Art work was supplied by Mark Stewart of American Yearbook and by Peoples Oakland. The black-and-white photographs in the book are the work of undergraduates of the University. The color reproduction in this volume are from prints on Eastman Ektacolor professional paper prepared by Paul F. Salva, a junior at the University of Pittsburgh, from Eastman Ektacolor negatives and from Eastman Ektacolor internegatives.
