The lack of such conferences is due to the people who aren‘t there, ac- cording to Eldridge. and he expressed a need [or stipulated times when people can discuss problems in policy. An understanding between students and administration on the problems of mor- ality would, hopefully, be promoted by such discussions. The faculty at the con- Ierence felt that basic to the success of the discussions is for the adminis- trative official to be recognized by both the student and himself as an authority who is also a human being. When asked to make a statement of policy or clarifi- cation, the official should appear more fallible |han irreproachable. Discuss Issues of Privacy in a writing session Monday after- noon. students and faculty expressed ac- lual policy changes they ielt necessary. The ideas centered around the need for privacy, accompanied by a clarification of its ends, its degree, its form and its consequences Most felt that the request for privacy does not imply a desire for the opportua nity for sexual intercourse. In fact, one faculty member stated that when stu~ dents request privacy, they do so with considerable ambivalence If the request were studied “in depth,” it would be found that there are three basic fears connected with the type oi privacy com ducive to sex: 1, Fear of loss of control over emoa tions. Zr Fear of more emotional and sexual involvement than the student is ready lor, and 3.

What is the end, then, that students want when they request privacy? Confer- ence members agreed that there is a delinite need for a place for arguing, crying, and talking, both among couples and groups. Both faculty and students discussed the possibility oi rooms fur- nished with easy chairs and linoleum, rooms ConduCiVe to communication short of intercourse. It was generally ad- mitted that the idea was naive and mun< dane, but satisfactory to those who would not want to risk the temptations of open rooms. Student representatives were concerned mainly With the question of facilities when asked what they would consider Lhe ideal College situation. They Cun< sidered open rooms as one answer to privacy, and planned their facilities so that open dorms would not inconvenience others Opens Rules by Consensus Open dorm policy would he detera mined by a consensus of people living within the unit, regulated in a manner similar to the planning and enforcing of quiet hours. The group thinking was that this liberalized open dorm policy would be more readily enforced if rules were made by a consensus. All expressed a need for a realistic explanation of the administration's ideas Von privacy, punishments they would iu< that for breaking oi rules, and the psy- chological consequences that the indivia dual would suffer.

According to Demorest. an individual can behave as he wishes if lie I5 willing to suffer the consequences. A college has no right to control verbal limits of students, but it can control hehovorial limits by setting the pun- ishments and explaining the conse- quences. However, Demorest continued, the administration is not required to jus< tily its rationale behind the policies it follows. The members oi the group agreed that perhaps this is true irom a legalistic view, but the college, also Will stiffer certain consequences if it follows this policy. School Must Know Itself In the following discussion, Demorest explained his viewpoint, and stated that rebellion against the rules limiting free- dom Will not bother a school if the authority “knows itseli and its goals." However, when the authority is insecure and does not or cannot state the definite rules and expectations realistically, the students have a legitimate issue. Here the group felt that this contusion is quite detrimental to a stable community: “fuzziness is worse than tyranny” in presenting his own view on privacy and its role in the community, Demorest felt that it is possible to create a psy- chological privacy, and that students were not using their imaginations when they asked for physical facilities for pri< vacyi However, the group opposed this stand by asking where the source of this psychological freedom stems, and they felt that it was unrealistic to think that all students are capable of creating such a world for themselves. ) B8tG Studied (Continued from Page I) The Hoffman report charges “that workers in Buildings and Grounds, Housekeeping, and Saga Food Service all are exploited through a combination of low wages, poor working conditions, and harsh working schedules." The Summary Statement oi the report includes such accusations as: “Grinnell College is reputed to be a kind of haven from the indifference. self< ishness and inhumanity of the outside world. One of the noble objectives or our college reads: ‘to motivate him (the Grinnell Student) towards concern for his neighbors, democratic ideals, cork sciouslless of social responsibility, and life of service to his fellow men.’ “Recall how our whole education at Grinnell is aimed at this objective, Re- member how our humanities and histm‘i< cal Studies, lectures and selected works were designed to imbibe us with the lib- eralrhumanitarian spirit of the Western Civilization, . . “How many faculty members know that while their salaries have been doubling over each five year period, other college employees are receiving no pay increases or increased benelits? Is the faculty aware that other college em< ployees are without individual protection or promotion plans? Admittedly, faculty ignorance is a major factor for the com tinuation oi the present labor system. . . ”Grinnell's eager young minds should realize that this world is an ugly place where everyone, including colleges and educators, grab all they can get at the expense of others." In regards to th e s o statements Richman said they badly needed updat- ing and that investigation would definite- ly be done during the next year to see how valid the statements were.
