CONSERVATIVES: Once again this week we publish an article on conservatives by a conservative, opening oui-selves again to the charge of being conservatives. This we deny. Most campus activities are staffed and controlled by students who are closer to liberalism than consei-vatism. Engaged as they are in the vast amount of work that these activities entail, this segment, which is the majority, does not have the interest to present a rebuttal. Consequently, the field is left open to a small, but highly vocal and articulate group of conservatives who give a false impression of size and influence. And until the liberals begin to realize that numbers alone are not enough and that the conservatives deserve and demand an answer, the present Foiimiid 1867 situation will continue to exist on college campuses. t;'^^.. Much has already been said in opposition to the Birch Society. Much of what we have said about "Operation Abolition" applies equally well to this group. There is no room in the fight against Communism for extreme and irresponsible creeds. In this category v/e would include the Society's desire to abolish Chief Justice ee prevent the excesses to which they are so prone.

The answer to both problems seems to be px-ecisely what the committee has ; Philip Lorrabee : ' seen as necessary, interclass residence halls for non-freshman on a semi-permanent basis.

little weight, as only a brief review would be necessary. But in reality students don't or can't keep up, and an increased load of tests merely makes the students ^ore grade centered. This fact was bom out in the Engineering Evaluation Com- mitee's report. If this present situation exists and the student doesn't have enough time to pur­ sue liberal disciplines, what can be done? Two of the possible and more widely mentioned solutions are first to extend the course to five years, or second to revamp the present curriculum and in­ sert more Liberal arts courses.

. . . AND SOME SOLUTfONS A five-year program would permit a spreading out of the present load, and also an addition of several hours of electives, hopefully in fields not directly allied to engineering. This extra year of breathing space, so to speak, could def­ initely remove part of this massive cloak of courses. The disadvantages would of bourse be the cost of the added school­ ing, $2,000 plus, and also the loss of the year to student. Both of these negative aspects are reflected directly on the stu­ dent or his parents. J^ The second approach has been tried s^SsWsSi many times. In 1956 Notre Dame under­ took such a study and although a total revamping was initiated, the same weighty amount of credit hours exist ^nd no appreciable increase in liberal ^rts hours was realized. This tj^pe of revamping, a sort of inner college sh&e- up, is always valid, but as mentioned be­ fore, it does not allow the average engineer any more opportunity to shake the continuity of his engineering work or the rapid onslaught of those tests. This approach under a somewhat dif-- f erent philosophy, however, might prove I successful. This different method is best I described by quoting a report issued by U;he Problems and Policies Committee of "he American Council on Education of which our own President, the Reverend Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C, is a member. "A great waste in higher edu- i cation comes from the unnecessary dupli­ cation of programs, both among and within institutions." To deny that there is much duplica­ tion in the engineering curriculum would indeed be presumptuous. As a matter of fact it appears that concerning many A ^ (Continued on page 17) a«
