This popular quote from the movie Cool Hand Luke could well have origi- nated on the campus of any college or university in the nation. Students protest because they are shackled by administrations which have no insight into student problems. If the situation at Madison can be an indication of the problems found at other academic institutions, the fault lies within the student body. The physical plant of this institution is congested by bulle- tin boards, yet few have the time to read notices. It takes only a few moments out of a busy day to ask questions of Student Government representatives, yet few students will sacrifice even a few seconds. President Miller's Open Meeting last Thursday perhaps typified the reasons behind any lack of communication that may exist on Campus. These monthly meetings, to quote Dr. Miller, are "provided for communication between students and Administration." Approximately 15 students were in attend- The Lettermen Given Standing Ovations ance. Of this number, at least half were members of student organizations.
