Stone, Edtor of.. Stone's BWeekly, castgate present Amercan mltary polcy as the dabolcal product of a malevolent elte. Contnung, Stone sad that Amercans would have no fath n the upcomng Strategc Arms Lmtaton Talks (SALT) f they vewed dsarmament attempts n hstorcal perspectve. Of the many dsarmament conferences snce the frst n 1897, not one has produced any lastn desrable effects. Fro example, he sad, the Brtsh and French were on the verge of a cessaton of naval compettons untl the aged and dodderng Duke of Wellngton told the Brtsh that new French steamshps could secretly land 50,000 troops near London and overrun the captal. Agreements wth the French collapsed, and a new arms race began as the Brtsh became mesmerzed, by natonal paranoa. ndeed, throughout the conference, the mssed chances for general dsarmament was a central theme. Stone lsted three occasons durng the nuclear age when the U.S. mssed chances for dsarmament. The frst was n 1955 when the Russans accepted the Western proposals for c o nm pr e e n s ve dsarmament, however, the West backed down from ts prevous poston. The second opportunty was just before Kennedy's nauguraton when Sovet' offcals told Scence Advsor Jerome Wesner that they were ready to negotate f the U.S. would not contnuously talk of a dangerous mssle gap; but the U.S. dd and bult a thousand CBMs. Agan, n 1963, a thrd chance occured when the Sovet Unon was prepared to accept a total test ban treaty, but Kennedy became cautous n hs proposal to Congress n order to placate the hawks. The U.S. began another round of underground testng and the possblty for agreement was lost. New chance at SALT The fourth chance s now 1st ,. 2nd ' 507 3rd CLASS ELECTON RESULTS Class of ;70.: Permanent Offcers Presdent... Steve Carhart VcePresdent Bob Denns SecretaryTreasurer.....

But, f the U.S. puts them n hstorcal prespectve, we wll not expect the llusory hope of general accord on lmtaton. Stone further charged that the ABEM, another central focus of the conference, was really an attempt by the Nxon admnstraton to buy a frst strke aganst manland Chna. "t's purpose s war, not peace." Three partcpants n the UCS program, Jerome Wesner, George Rathjens, Professor of Poltcal Scence, and GerogeKstakowsky of Harvard, are expected to testfy aganst the ABM before Congress when the fght aganst ts expanson s rejoned ths year. Jerome Wesner, Provost of MT, sad Tuesday nght at Harvard's Sanders Theater, that MRV and ABM were clearly "dsasters" and that further Amercan progress on the weapons' could hurt the SALTtalks. Amerca, he sad, has a way of overreactng to almost any concevable threat we can thnk of, thus fuelng the arms race. Because of the long leadtmes n weapon development, "You don't need an opponent, you only need a mrror." Amerca has tradtonally been favorable to defense allocatons of any type. Recently, however, the country has become ncreasngly skeptcal of mltary weapons sgystems and the need for them. The problem, Wesnersad, s how to accelerate ths process of skeptcsm. Clark then rose and asked "Are we crazy?" Yes, sad Clark, for we contnue to buld weapons and become. afrad of our own shadows, thus weakenng chances for dsarmament, SALT offers he mantaned, the U.S., a reasonable chance for dsarmament. He further agreed wth Wesner that prvateefforts outsde the government would ultmately prove more effectve. The U.S. can promote general dsarmament wthout drastcally hurtng ts natonal securty, clamed, by: reducng the land based mssles, cuttng the mltary budget to ffty bllon dollars, cuttng back the armed servces to two mllon men, pressng for agreementperhaps total nuclear dsarmament by 1973at the SALT talks, promotng an effectve nternatonal peacekeepng force, mplementng suggested strengthenng reforms of the UN, and ultmately formng a world federaton capable of outlawng war.

The abrupt change splt the. an Edd reman s UAP materal n the decsonbmakng process of the Workng Group on Judcal Processes of the Task Group on Governance of the MT Commsson. The workng group s chared by Prof. Campbell Searle. Eddleman and Ehrmann felt that the electon turnout should have been better, but noted that t was relatvely good. Snce all the canddates stood for smlar ssues they felt the good turnout s an ndcaton that students want change, and, accordng to Ehrmann, that students wll be wllng to work for t. E and E's Plans, Tha offcerselect began talkng wth General Assembly representatves and the other canddates shortly after learnng of ther electon to begn the process of organzng the GA for ts desred role of ncreased effectveness. The'new UAP team s mmedately faced wth the task of judcal reform n conjuncton wth the Judcal Workng Group. They stressed the need for feedback from the MT communty on ths ssue. Student opnon on the MRV ssue s a pressng concern. GA representatves wll be charged wth the job of talkng to ther consttuents about ths. Another task marked for prompt acton s gettng people nvolved n ther departments. E and E plan to set up two new organzatons of the GA, a communcatons board and arn "operatons group". The com' muncatons board wll be charged wth mantanng contact between the GA and the nsttute's varous commttees and student groups. The operatons group wll be the central organzaton for tacklng the multtude of programs for change whch students feel should be worked on. ts membershp wll be open to all; t s ntended as the channel through whch students can get nvolved n the nsttute's affars.

The group wll be selforganzed nto groups.of 3 to 5 students who wll ether tackle tasks of ther /hoce or wll be gven a problem whch needs to worked out. The task forces mght make recommendatons to Presdent Johnson. n the past some of these student task force recommendatons have been accepted n leu of those of faculty commttees. n the course of ther campagn, Eddleman and Ehrmann talked to about 1300 people.

Wth these words, Herbert Woodson, Housemaster of Burton House, characterzed the.culprt, presumably a student, whose nnocent "'hack" caused a flood of the frst order on the frst floor. of Burton House Monday nght. Several huge wads of computer tape were found at the bottom of the man dran; they had effectvely stopped up the dran so that no water could pass through. As a result, the water backed up the dran, floodng the men's rooms, and ultmately the whole floor. A plumber who was called n to repar the damage stated that the cost.of fxng the backup would be very hgh, and that he was convnced that the blockup was delberate. Several people nvolved expressed the opnon that the hack was accomplshed by flushng long lengths of the tape down the toletrepeatedly untl a jam had been effected. The practcal jjoker had obvously spent the better part of several hours to accomplsh hs deed. The cleanup process began about mdnght. Because of the jam, a ppe had overflowed n the vcnty of the elevator, causng t to cease functonng. Consequently resdents had to use the stars for the most of the evenng to ascend to ther rooms. All the rugs on the frst floor had to be taken up, be: cause they were saturated wth water. Ths process tself took several hours, and at ths wrtng, they stll have not been relad.

4 PAGE4 FRDAY, MARCH'6,1970 THE ' '. L L ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Tech would lke to congratulate the newly elected Undergraduate Assocaton Presdent, Wells Eddleman, and hs runnng mate Steve Ehrmann. They take over a student government whch has had lttle mpact on the student body whch t represents. For student government to become more than just shallow words wll requre much work and a great deal of nvolvement by ndvdual students. An encouragng note s the fact that almost 1900 students voted n the electon, the largest turnout n years. Perhaps ths ndcates the knd of nterest and support that Wells and Steve were descrbng n ther campagn. Here sy Exactly what courteses are due a foregn dgntary travellng n one's country? Ths s a queston most concerned Amercans have had to deal wth n the last few days, partcularly concernng the state vst of French premer Georges Pompdou. Pompdou has complaned vocally and angrly about the treatment he receved n ths country from prosrael demonstrators, and crtczed the Chcago Polce for not takng stronger acton aganst them. Just how justfed are Pompdou's clams; and does he have a rght to expect the knd of securty he clams he should have had n ths country? To answer ths queston requres a bref look at the hstory of French and Amercan dgntares travellng abroad and at the knd of receptons they have receved. Most pognantly, take a look at Nxon's ventures nto South Amerca. There he was treated very roughly, and whle dspleased wth.the ant Amercan crowds, he never crtczed or blamed the government of the naton nvolved. Rather, the Presdent accepted hs treatmernt as a way of lfe n the countres he vsted and dd not try to coerce the governments of those countres n any obvous way. Consder now the treatment that foregn dgntares get when travellng n France. n that country,: crowds are never allowed to dsrupt n any manner the vstof a foregn dgntary. f demonstrators become too potentally. raucus, the polce do not hestate to use rot clubs to 'break up a crowd, and certanly do not worry about any volaton of the cvl rghts of the ndvduals they club. Thus, n France, dgntares never receve the sort of recepton that Pompdou dd n Chcago. Now, the queston s, what oblgaton dd Amercan polce have towards the French premer? Pompdou no doubt thought that he would be treated n a foregn country n just the same as any foregn VP would be treated n hs. Here, though, he made a logcal error. Undenably, Pompdou had a rght to expect suffcent securty precautons such that hs lfe and property would not be endangered. Also, he had a rght to expect a certan amount of protocol from the offcals of the government he was vstng. Beyond that, however, the responsblty of the recevng government ends. Pompdou must remember that whle n France the demonstrators would have been treated more harshly, he was not n France.' le was toutng Amerca, and b y dong so, was agreeng tactly not to voate any of the rules of that Congratulatons country, and was also agreeng not to ask that the cvl rghts of someone else n ths country be volated, for the sole purpose of hs gong unscathed. Pompdou's feelngs were hurt prvately, and he had every rght to let ths fact slp to Nxon, so that Nxon mght try to assuage hm somewhat, or at the very least take offcal cog; nzance of Pompdou's dspleasure. What Pompdou chose to do, however, was fo publcly ask that the rghts of law be dened to some Amercan ctzens, for a certan perod of tme, so that" he could travel blthely through the country. Ths sort of request s ntolerable. What may ultmately be even more ntolerable, however, s the unfortunate consequences that Pompdou's spurofthemoment outburst mght have for FrancoAmercan,, srael Amercan, and Francosrael relatons. Nxon, n an attempt to To the losng canddates n the race, Bob Dresser and Kevn George, we extend our congratulatons also for campagns well fought. We hope that theycan see ther way clear to workng wth the new UAP and UAVP for the betterment of the whole student body. Wells and Steve wll want all the help they can get from nterested members of the student body, and we urge Bob and Kevn to make ther contrbutons. Fnally, we hope that Wells Eddleman and Steve.

Dplomatc ndscreton placate Pomnpdou stll further,' mght start to make concessons to hm that could owly lead to an ultmate worsenng of relatons between our two countres. Furthermore to "get even," Nxon mght just sell the sraels down the rver, and not agree to promse them any more arcraft to balance France's new saleof 10 Mrage jets to the Arabs, thus puttng srael n a dangerous strategc, poston. Fnally, Ponpdou's outburst, coupled wth hs refusal to meetwth Amerca's Jewsh leaders, can only lead to a worsenng of the already deteroratng relatons between France and srael. Hence we see thatpompdou's behavor whle n ths country cannot bode well for the future of the "Free World," whch cannot long stay that way f Pomrnpdou delberately contnues on the course he seems to have charted froor hmself and for hs naton. Letters to T he Tech Judcal process (Ed. note: Ths was receved by The Tech as an open letter to the colmmunty). Dear Professor Smulln: f you remember, was speakng to you and some other members of the Task Force on the Judcal Process last Tuesday. You asked me to descrbe my verson of a good judcal system at MT. sad that poltcal cases should be handled n a way so tat the just nature of the cause would be taken nto account. For example, students who hold a dsruptve demonstraton n opposton to MRV would not be punshed. You wanted to know how one could apply that prncple to cases ten years hence, and so here s my answer. A dscplne commttee would have to nqure nto both the facts and the ssues. A just cause would be one that champoned the nterests of the dscrmnated aganst and the poor n opposton to the rch and powerful. Of course, a far evaluaton of the ssues would requre an ndependent judcary, who would not be afrad to rule n favor of a dsrupton. They would h.av to be free to say that the demonstrators.should not be punshed and that the admnstraton s wrong. The MT admnstraton's current acton of pressng cvl and dscplnary charge s aganst Pete Kramer, a former member of the Dscplnary Commttee, would not be allowed under such a system. Another requrement f an ndependent judcary s that ther mnds be open. One has to realze how much ths proposal dffers from the present system. Now poltcal consderatons are out of order; n ths scheme they wvould be the order of the day. Now only the admnstraton's vewpont s assured 'of representaton; n the future, ther deas would be nsa dstnct mnorty. t s easy to see that ths plan wll,never be adopted; s t as smple to justfy that fact?

The results of ths hand count were announced at 1:00 am and are consdered the offcals results. The problems wth the computer tabulaton began when the prepunched ballot cards would not be accepted by the sorter. They were then duplcated on an BM 360 and started through the sorter.

Snce such communtes were small and tghtlyknt, ntegraton of new members occured ether soon after arrval or not at all; so, the tenure decson was probably more consensual, more, a matter' of compatblty than a "rejecton" of one professor n favor of another. However, the academc commu ncatonnetwork expanded beyond the ndvdual college when the wrtng of a professor at one end of a contnent could reach and nspre students at the other end durng hs lfetme. The frequency and ease of ths communcaton ncreased radcally 'through breakthroughs n communcatons (and transportaton) technology; partcularly notable were the developments of academc (and professonal) journals and paperbacks. A pro fessor's name became assocated. less wth hs "lqud" assets (Le. lecturng and teachng oral prowess) at a partcular unversty and more wth hs "sold" assets (.e. books and wrtngs) n hs specalty. A natonal publcatons market removed the barrers separatng unverstes; wth ths ncreased nteracton among professors on a regonal and natonal level, ndvdual unverstes became homes wthn a natonal "academc communty." Ths development mght be vewed as an ncrease n horzontal moblty or the establshment ofa natonal (vs. local) marketplace for academc deas and talents. Meanwhle, Amercan unver_ stes had receved the ad and encouragement of both busness. and government; MT for nstance, was establshed under the LandGrant Act of n tme of natonal emergency, these same unverstes. wllngly removed ther academc garb'and contrbuted sgnfcantly to the soluton of these crses. ndeed, the help of a collegate "brantrust" n extrcatng the naton from a Depresson s evdence of ths; the development of the atonmc bomb by unversty professors was conclusve proof of ther worth. By the end of World War 11, both government and busness recognzed the value of tradtonal, "academc" professors outsde ther classrooms and were wllng to pay well for ther 'sklls n' nonacademc matters.!, _ Allegheny Ar System We have a lot more gongfor you TE TE v1. FFdAY McH.. 6; 7 THE TECH F R DAY, MA RCH 6, 91 PAGE 7 Ths development meant greater vertcal moblty for professors than ever before and freed them from ther tradtonal dependence on academa. These two developments shattered the relatve solatonsm of the unverstes that had characterzed ther exstence for cen 'tures. A professor now competes on an open market across the naton for jobs n corporate bodes, ncludng unverstes. Because of ths, hs "success" sgnfcantly relates to hs achevements and competence n hs specfc professonal area rather than hs performance as a teacher. The ethos of these men s no longer Scholastcsm and teachng, but professonalsm and careersm. n short, as the professoral outlook has changed, the hstorcal justfcaton for tenure has dsappeared. Professors have acqured the economc moblty and flexblty, the absence of whch tenure was ntended as a compensaton; a professor's afflaton wth a partcular unversty has become more transent than communal. However, tenure has taken on new meanngs. As a professor s awarded tenure by peers n hs feld (.e. by the department wthn hs unversty) on the bass of the worth to the professon of hs research (as usually revealed n hs publcatons) tenure s a sgn of status as a professonal. The possblty of ultmately recevng tenure at a major unversty can nduce junor faculty members to stay on; the status of appontment to such a prestgous post s an nducement to reman. However, because professors often are offerred tenure at several unverstes concurrently, the professor may feel lttle afflaton wth the partcular school he chooses. For example, n 196g two tenured poltcal scence professors were asked by ther department ether to return from leave to teach or to resgn; both chose to leave. F Furthermore, unverstes use tenure as a qualty control devce to nsure that ther staff s of the hghest calber. n ths sense, tenure represents a "local lcensng" procedure n hgher educaton, whch has been not' able n ts (e.g. AAUP's) refusal to even consder the problem of lcensng n the professons. Tenure mght best be seen as a pass/fal gradng system for the cream of academa. However, as wth grades, once tenure has been awarded, the unversty loses most of ts leverage on a professor's performance. As tenure s a dscrmnatoryrewards system, people can atgue proandcon the need for such a system, the valdty of choosng partcular dfferentatng standards and the relablty of these crtera. Alternatvely, some state that tenure s necessary for the pres ervaton of "academc freedom." However, academc freedom s an attrbute of the whole unversty of students and junor faculty as well as tenured faculty. Others mght even consder tenure as a threat to academc freedom as t often has been used (n the same manner as grades) to reward conformty and specalzaton and punsh creatvty and dversty; Nsbet wrtes, "ts [tenure's] crme, s not ts cost n dollars but n creatvty." However, tenure could be used to reward ths creatvty. f tenure were elmnated, the staff would have more freedom, but ths does not mean that they would be more creatve than at present. Scholarly creatvty s a characterstc of the ndvdual, ndependent of hs contractual crcumstances.. What thnk dsturbs students most about te.ure s the gnorng of "teachng ablty" as a crteron n tenure decsons. One of the reasons (ratonalzatons?) why "teachng ablty" has been seemngly gnored by the departments s the dffculty and ambguty of defnng and. applyng ths standard (ths seems a partcularly dffcult task for behavoralsts). Hexter rases the queston: on the bass of "teachng ablty" alone, ceters parbus, should a unversty gve tenure to (or value more hghly) the excellent lecturer who s a poor semnar leader or to the poor lecturer who s an excellent semnar leader? t s far smpler, and more n ther area of expertse, for the faculty to ratonalze that research publcatons have ntrnsc, educatonal value for students n the feld, and, consderng that most learnng today s done (or should be done).by readng, that the publcaton of a major work represents great "teachng ablty" to a large, natonal student audence. The Poltcal Scence Department nvestgated the teachng prowess of Fen, Johnson, and Saloma; ts ambguous and undfferentable results only confrm those observatons. f students wsh to modfy the present crtera of tenure, they face the procedural dffculty of ascoverng far and standard measures of dfferentatng good teachers from bad 'teachers. Of course, the near mpossblty of reachng any consensus as to "what s a good teacher?" wll lmt ther success; however, the faculty at ths tme seems amenable to new approaches. Yet, the frutlessness of ths strategy at present should not be underestmated. Because tenure s not an academc (.e. unmportant) ssue for students today as evdenced by refusals of tenure precptatng campus unrest across the naton have decded to add to ths seres a fourth artcle descrbng possble strateges and tactcs of changng the present system.
