‘Mind Maturation’
By MIKE WRIGHT With “The Role and Right of

Dr. William Gibbons, Political Gibbons said the average student

should only develop the civil at
titudes as it relates to his stud
ies,” commented Gibbons.
“He has the rest of his life to
be a citizen, but only a short
time to study; however, students
are not doing this,” he continued.
The student also has the role
of the university citizen in a uni
versity community. In this com
munity, he should be advocating
more changes in the administra
tion that will aid his university
community, he said.
“The right of a student to have
a word in a department’s curricu
lum should be delegated. With
members of the faculty, and ad
ministration, the student would
be able to express his views on
courses to be required. They
should also have something to
say about the grading of the
faculty,” he stressed.
“The present system of evalu
ation is inadequate. The faculty
should be graded and their pro
motions and pay scale should de
pend on their ranking. Each pro
fessor would be graded individ
ually and the results made pub
lic. This has been done at other
colleges and universities with
very favorable results,” Gibbons
declared.
He added that the right for the
student to demand new courses
in departments and new school
programs to aid the minority
groups should be exercised.
“The student body should also
have the right to demand and
request action for a co-educa-
tional university,” he said.
“The nature of a university
administration is to be conserva
tive and they will remain con
servative until they are pushed.
However, the student should be
sure of why he is pushing before
he criticizes the establishment,”
Gibbons said.
“The student government
should be the spokesman for the
student body. They will accom
plish this by seizing more au
thority and assuming the role of
taking stands on controversial
items. They need to let the stu
dents know they are behind
them,” he stressed.

tee had taken this “no speaker”
position.
“I HAD never heard of that
law until Mr. Buser brought it |
up tonight,” Maddox said.
“The decision was based on
politics associated with approp
riations,” he asserted. “They (the
Executive Committee) felt this
might alienate the legislators and
result in repercussions in our ap
propriations.”
“We can’t say that our pres
ent position is because of our
ban on political speakers; but in
the ten years President Rudder
has been here, we’ve moved for
ward,” Buser commented.
“WE WERE called in to give
our views; and, in my opinion,
we were treated fairly,” said
President Bill Carter about the
meeting with the Executive Com
mittee.
Another big issue of the meet
ing was the problem of football
seating for graduate students.
Senator Tony Benedetto pro
posed a “consideration section” at
the south end of the east upper
deck for graduate students who
wished to sit, pregnant wives of
Aggies and injured students who
could not stand for the whole
game.
Sophomore president Gary Mar
tin agreed with Benedetto.
“I think that as exciting as
our games get, we shouldn’t
take a chance on having the first
baby bom in Kyle Field,” Mar
tin said.
THE MATTER was referred
to a committee consisting of Phil
Callahan, Head Yell Leader Bill
Youngkin and a member of the
Graduate Student Council. They
will determine a division line in
the upper deck and give sections
only south of that line to the
people who do not want to stand.
A motion was passed allowing-
President Bill Carter to decide
a method of selection for the
A&M entry into a national con
test to decide a College Centen
nial Football Sweetheart.
A suggestion by one Senator
to enter the name of Annella
Wright, the Aggie Sweetheart,
prompted a remark from Sena
tor Norman Jenkins.

After you've met
the challenge?
If you're the kind of Civil Engineer
we're looking for, you'll start search
ing for another one to conquer. Here
at the Pennsylvania Department of
Highways, we offer a host of chal
lenges to the right man. But, to be
that right man, you've got to be pretty
special.
You see, we search out and encour
age Civil Engineers whom we consider
capable of grasping a challenge;
skilled men, comparable to the great
Engineers who are “building Tomor
row today in Pennsylvania." If you
can measure up to the standards
necessary to fulfill Pennsylvania's $10
billion plan to lead the nation in high
ways, we'd consider it a challenge just
to get to know you.
A Pennsylvania Department of
Highways Career Representative will
visit your campus. To arrange for an
appointment, or if you desire
additional infor
mation, contact the
placement office.

“What we are in effect saying
is that women (here at A&M)
are just things walking around
the campus,” he commented.
A later meeting of the Student
Senate will discuss proposed

lations.
