The Time Has Come The time has come for a reasonable alternative to our present policy in Vietnam. The rise of public dissatisfac­ tion about the Vietnamese conflict and its possible effects on the 1968 presidential campaign is noted as often as the progress of the war itself. But this dissatisfaction alone is not enough. It must be directed; it must be shaped into a positive program for action capable of popular support We must not allow the present policy to win by default. Our present policy is committed to defend South Viet­ nam from outside aggression from the North. It proposes the doctrine of gradual military escalation as the solution to the conflict. The leading spokesmen for this position claim a controlled increase of our land and air forces can raise the price of North Vietnamese aggression to levels that would make continued aggression prohibitive. It seems fair to ask the supporters of this doctrine just what those prohibitive military levels are. This they are unable to do. It seems clear therefore a continuation of this policy must be rejected as wishful thinking, a vain hope unsupported by even the slightest indications of future success. If this policy were at all productive, there would have been favorable signs long before now. It would be foolish to persist with this doctrine which, in its three years of operation, has been so barren of results. The time has come for us to declare in both public and private, to both North and South Vietnam, the United Nations, and to the rest of the world that we no longer belong in South Vietnam. We must recognize the primary responsibility for the defense of South Vietnam lies upon the South Vietnamese themselves. If aggression from the North continues, the evidence should be brought before the United Nations. For aside from any moral considerations, it is simply not in our best interests to continue our unilateral military action in Vietnam. Once we state our intention to pull out of Vietnam, we should stop the bombing of the North and begin to gradually cut down our land operations as a sign of our sincerity. We should once more announce our desire to negotiate directly with North Vietnam. In the meantime we should put the Vietnam issue before the United Nations. Diplomacy should be given a chance to resolve the conflict where military escalation has failed. — J.M. The Scholastic This Campus, This Year This past summer a seminar on academic freedom spon­ sored by the North American Region of the International Federation of Catholic Universities (of which Fr. Hes- burgh is president) was held on property owned by Notre Dame at Land O'Lakes, Wisconsin, from July 21-23. The seminar was an outgrowth of many things, chiefly Good Public Relations a growing awareness among Catholics of need for a new The University has announced the undertaking of an­ look at their brand of education and its goals sparked other contribution drive called SUMMA.

He was arrested for "interfering with pedestrian and vehicular traffic." The previous week, local police had risked charges of "pohce harassment" in breaking up Avondale crowds loi­ tering at Reading and Rockdale roads. Now, on Monday night, June 12, 300 gathered to hear Leonard Ball of SNCC continue the Laskey protest. Coupled with the early sum­ mer heat and long-time Negro inactivity, the spark ignited the fire. Leaving the meeting at the Samuel Ach Junior High School, bands of roving Negroes went on a destruc­ tive binge that started with Torf's Drug Store and Sears, Roebuck & Co. and ended only after six fires had lit the area and 24 stores, not bearing the "Soul Brother" label, were de-windowed. Emil Dansker, 54-year-old Cincinnati Enquirer report­ er, confronted an older Negro man at the scene. "They said it couldn't happen in Cincinnati." "Yeah? Well, it's happening." A short time later, Dansker was socked by a Negro youth who demanded to know what he, Dansker, was doing there. William C. Wichman, City Manager, was quick to the defense. "We did not break it (the meeting) up. The police are damned if they do and damned if they don't." The following morning, 25 Negroes headed by Dr. Bruce Green, NAACP President, presented 11 demands to the City Council including requests that money be lent to buy out white tradesmen in the area, more employment be offered to Negro youth, Negro drivers be provided for the area's delivery trucks, and investigation be made into damning instance of Northern white hypocrisy as Father the "panic of policemen."

It seems to me that every social problem has two parts to it: a part that you can express mathematically, compute, and put on paper, and a part, equally important, which is less concrete and niore difficult to demon­ strate, especially to someone who has not yet experienced the same thing as you. Like explaining to someone who is blind what is red — well, you might say that it is one of the primary colors, a visual sensation which has a wavelength of 650 millimicrons but I doubt whether that blind person would understand unless you told him what red meant to you personally: a warm color, heat, sun, and even then his understanding would be imperfect.

The dorm houses seven students in a former convent area built for the tiuns who staffed the small infirmary. Although only one group can claim a private cloister, tlie hall is naturally divided into sections, none bigger than eight rooms.

Father Burtcliaell is visualising a successful future for tlie project as he guides tlie SCHOLASTIC around the lakefront.

Sept. 22, 1967 25 NE^V DEANS

Dr. Joseph Hogan, who was engineering dean at the University of Missouri, has been appointed dean of the College of Engineering. Dr. Hogan has taught electrical engineering at the University of Missouri, has done re­ search in the areas of induction motor design, power anal­ ysis and controls system, and has authored several tech­ nical publications. One of the major activities of the new dean is the plan­ ning of the new 4.5 million dollar engineering building. This building will contain classrooms, offices and labora­ tories and will be financed in part by SUMMA. Another new project in the coUege is Themis. Dr. Hogan is especially proud of the college's involvement in this program, which is supported by the Department of Defense. It had been found that there were only a few places in the nation which had the capability to solve cer­ tain pressing problems. Themis is an attempt to estab­ lish new centers of excellence. Of 469 proposals submitted, 50 were funded; one of those that were funded was the Notre Dame proposal which is concerned with deep-sea DR. BERNARD ^N^ALDMAN engineering. The project involves many of the depart­ ments of the college and many different aspects of the Dr. Bernard Waldman is the new dean of the College problem such as: structural, hydrodynamical and thermo- of Science.

It is hoped planning the 200 billion electron-volt accelerator to be the enrollment of these two colleges can be increased while built at Weston, 111. holding the total undergraduate enrollment constant. Dr. Waldman is also guiding the growth of the College of Science. At present the building which will house the DR. JOSEPH HOGAN new Van de Graaf is nearing completion; it is hoped that the new accelerator will be ready for expei'iments next summer. Also, the new Life Sciences building is now being constructed south of the library. When this is com­ pleted the building will house the Departments of Biology and ^Microbiology and also the experimental apparatus of the Lobund Laboratory. Looking further into the future, a new chemistry building is now in the preliminary plan­ ning stage. Besides these additions to the physical plant Dr. Wald­ man wishes to increase the number of students enrolled in the college, both graduates and undergraduates. Dr. Waldman points out that there are about 600 students in the College of Science and approximately 300 of these are premedical students; he believes the college has the facili­ ties to educate many more in the other departments. The plan is to increase the enrollment of the College of Science without increasing the total enrollment of the University; this is to be accomplished by recruiting more science in­ tents for the freshman year. This program has already begun in the New York area where Dr. Pollard of the Lo­ bund Laboratory will give a seminar to prep school science teachers and their students. Another of the new dean's concerns is the curriculum. Dr. Waldman would like to see more flexibility in the curriculum especially during the senior year. In connec­ tion with this the dean would also like to continue re­ ducing the number of credits required for graduation until the desired number, 128, is reached. 26 The Scholastic Sn SnterbietD toitlj ttje J^eto Bean of ^tubent^
