Prldey. October l4. l9“ SCARLET AND BLACK Page 5..." ) Editorial (Continued from Page 2) ture yesterday. told the Shit: “Bringing these things out in the open would be beneficial to everyone involved, My only rear would be that this might harden Puritan minorities, and then. perhaps, nothing would be gained.” Many responsible people, in- cluding the reviewer tor the 5&3, do not agree with Meyer’s contention that the controver- sial scene in “The Chairs" so seriously affected the audience that they went away thinking nothing else about the play. He is entitled to his views, but he must also allow Tor other opin- ions. In eensoring the play he closed the door on rational dis- cussion. We think a good edumtional opportunity was lost when “The Chairs" was censored. it the matter had been approached in an intellectual manner students could have examined the issues involved and learn a great deal. Student directors could gain a better idea how their audience reacts on morally questionable matters. The (acuity could offer needed guidance. and could also learn more about “student at. litudes." Discussion would also help everyone keep a clear separation between the student actor as a character on stage and as a student they know per~ sonally. We do not believe that students will be hurt by seeing something controversial like "The Chairs." By eliminating censorship, faculty and administration would he spared oi the very embarrassing and ethically dit< ficult situation into which Mey< er and SomerVille put each other. M a n y knowledgeable people think Meyer went to the extreme or overruling another faculty member because, as his experience with “The Knack” indicated, he had to support the indeiinite but de- cisive administration position on obscenity. This is a deplor- able situation and one that les- sens stutlent respect ior all in- Volved. Some faculty members have told the 5&3 that they are "categorically opposed to any censorship on campus." One can only speculate what would happen it a iaculty member who takes [his stand becomes involved in a situation like that of “The Chairs." We are of the opinion that the basis oi the problem, and per- haps the only reason that cen- sorship still goes on here, is ad- ministration and faculty cun- cem for the “morally correct and nonrcontroversial" image oi Grinnell College. Much oi the confusion and contradiction of past dis cussion on censorship has resulted tram attempting to bypass not only the question oi what is the “good image” but how permitting supposedly im- moral works of art to exist here effects that image. These are questions that need thought and discussion. We do not think it would be very dil- iicult to sell the ideas of “artis- tic freedom” and “freedom of the press" to the outside world oi alumni, money givers, trus- tees, parents, etc. We would point to the administration’s handling or the “drug issue" as the type of constructive ap- proach needed. lt censorship on moral grounds is eliminated the col- lege need not fear a deluge of obscene student art. We think Grinnell students are sensitive people. And when questionable matters do arise, student and iaculty criticism would act as eflective restraints. As Meyer told the 5&Bl “I believe that If we had no censorship there would be problems, but. this would not matter in the long 720 5TH AVE.
