New Business STANFORD, tn r I MINUTES OF THE ACADEMIC COUNCIL April 3, 1970 The regular Spring Quarter meeting of the Academic Council with the University Staff was scheduled for Room phlOO beginning at 4:15 p.m. " on Friday, April 3, 1970, with President Pitzer presiding. At the appointed hour a significant portion of the meeting room was occupied by unauthorized individuals. At approximately 4:20 p.m. the President attempted to call the meeting to order, requesting that those leave who were not either members of the Academic Council, members of the University Staff or specifically invited guests. At approximately 4:40 p.m. the unauthorized persons had left and the Council came officially to order. The President reported a request that KZSU be given access to an KZSU official tape of the meeting for the purpose of delayed broadcast of the proceedings under terms accepted by the Council for the previous meeting (see minutes March 2, 1970). This request was approved by unanimous consent. The minutes of the regular meeting of January 9, 1970, and the minutes of the special meeting of March 2, 1970, were approved as sub- mitted in writing. The Academic Secretary called attention to the fact that following ROTC the special meeting on March 2 arrangements were made to publish in the Campus Report of March 18 concise statements and arguments regarding the ROTC matter. However, since the arrangements were not anticipated on March 2, no record of it appeared in the minutes of that date. In view of the fact that these items represented quasi official records, Professor H. Pierre Noyes had requested that their existence be made a matter of record. The Academic Secretary declared his intention to " comply with this request unless there were objections. No objection was registered. It was also requested that Professor Noyes be recog- nized later in the meeting on a related matter. At the request of the President, the Academic Secretary then announced the results of the recent referendum on the ROTC matter. He reported that with the concurrence of the Committee of Tellers, composed of Professors Oswald Nielsen, Quentin M. Geiman, and Daniel M. Mendelowitz, the deadline for the return of referendum ballots had been extended from March 25 to March 30 in order to remove or lessen possibilities that the strike among postal employees would disenfran- chise any members of the Council. Total ballots returned had numbered 765, representing approximately seventy-five per cent of eligible voters , with 390 votes being cast for approval of the Senate's decision of January 22, 1970, 373 votes cast for disapproval, and 2 ballots found by the Tellers to be invalid. Senate Chairman William A. Clebsch presented a brief report, a SENATE copy of which is attached. REPORT " President Pitzer then presented a brief quarterly report to the PRESIDENT'S Council, including comments regarding acts of violence which had REPORT occurred on the campus earlier in the week. These comments were interrupted momentarily from the floor. A copy of the President's report is attached to these minutes. There followed, in succession, FACULTY <" statements by Professor H. Bruce Franklin, Professor Thomas Ehrlich, STATEMENTS ASSU President Patrick A. Shea, Professor Avram Goldstein, President Pitzer and again Professor Franklin, copies of which also are attached. The Chair declined to accept a motion for adjournment in view of NOYES the prior request for recognition by Professor Noyes who then made a STATEMENT statement regarding the recording in the minutes of Council debates. RE: A copy of this statement is attached. In response, the President asked RECORDING the Steering Committee of the Senate to take this matter under advise- DEBATE ment. Professor Noyes then called attention to the group of individuals INVITATION who had earlier vacated the meeting room and who were then outside TO GROUP the building. He urged that the Council admit spokesmen from this OUTSIDE group to address the Council. By consent, the motion which he intro- BUILDING duced was informally reworded to call for the admission of three spokesmen from the group to address the Council for a period not to exceed fifteen minutes. The motion was seconded by Professor Charles M. Stein. After a ruling that passage of the motion would require a two-thirds vote, the question was put and on a voice vote the Chair was uncertain of the outcome. On a standing vote, the motion was declared carried by the necessary two-thirds vote. Professor Noyes was then dispatched to invite the group outside to designate three individuals to address the Council. While the Council awaited the return of Professor Noyes, RESOLUTION OF Professor William E. Spicer introduced the following resolution: COMMENDATION Be it resolved that President Pitzer, Provost Lyman and the members of the relevant faculty be " combined with firmness in commended for their restraint dealing with violent actions of the past week. The motion was seconded by Professor William D. Nix. President Pitzer yielded the chair to Professor Clebsch who put the question, and the resolution was adopted in a standing vote. President Pitzer resumed the chair and there was a hiatus while the Council waited for a report from Professor Noyes. In INVITATION TO due course, Professor William F. Baxter urged the Chair to fix a GROUP OUT- time at which the allotted fifteen minutes would start to run. In SIDE BUILDING response, the Chair stated that if there were no objection, he would ask Professor Franklin to report to Professor Noyes and the group outside that the fifteen minute period had begun to run. No objection was registered, and Professor Franklin was dispatched accordingly to relay the message. When Professor Noyes returned he reported as the sense of the meeting outside that, "The three spokesmen would just be making speeches, and that what they would like to do would be to discuss the matter with the faculty, and you are invited to join them outside at the termination of this meeting." The Chair declared that this represented a declination of the Council's invitation although noting that it was in accord with a suggestion " he had earlier made before the Council came to order. 2 Professor Bacon moved for adjournment. The motion was seconded by Professor Charles J. Meyers and carried on a divided voice vote; whereupon the meeting was adjourned at approximately 5:20 p.m. " " 3 REPORT FROM THE SENATE BY WILLIAM A. CLEBSCH April 3, 1970 President Pitzer and fellow members of the Academic Council: Since the last regular Council meeting on January 9, 1970, the Senate " advised the President to approve a new Army ROTC contract on a one-year trial basis; limited academic credit may be sought for Army ROTC instruction as Undergraduate Special Courses, which are authorized by the Committee on Undergraduate Studies. On review, the Council sustained the Senate's action. The results of the referendum, as I said publicly when they were announced, are as narrow as the issue on which the vote was taken. I have thought all along there was little difference between the Senate's 1969 action opposing credit and the 1970 action specifying the single channel through which credit might or might not be given to ROTC courses. The vote shows the faculty has no strong preference between these two actions, but the 1970 action stands. It is clear, to me at least, that this faculty does not want to kick ROTC off campus. It is also clear the faculty does not want ROTC as a regular academic program. Nothing else is very clear. Since the last report, your Senate has held four regular meetings. The infrequency of meetings reflects the need of the Council's Standing Committees, which are now charged, manned, and functioning full tilt, to deliberate their business and take their actions before reporting to the Senate. " " REPORT FROM THE PRESIDENT BY KENNETH S. PITZER April 3, 1970 I too will say a few words of regret - serious regret of the acts of violence as well as increased participation by outsiders of the last week, " which made necessary the involvement of Santa Clara County Police on last Tuesday and Wednesday nights. As you have probably seen quoted elsewhere, I found the restraint with which the police handled their own operations most commendable. (Interruption) I can assure you I have had very good reports, very detailed reports from a number of people. It was only, I think, good luck that the large rocks thrown did not seriously injure anyone. On the other hand, the cost of repair of the physical damage is at least $8,500. This has to come from General Funds otherwise available for educational activities, student aid, and the like. I want to thank Professors Clebsch and Ehrlich on behalf of the Faculty Senate, and others of the faculty Advisory Group, as well as those on the administrative staff who have given very faithful service, advice and counsel during this period, and I appreciate the remarks which the Chairman of the Senate just made, and would reiterate his statement that only when faculty and students regard those acts as intolerable will they cease to be tolerated.

    Amer. Malac. Bull. 28: 191-213 (2010) Seventy-fi ve years of molluscs: A history of the American Malacological Society on the occasion of its 75th annual meeting Paula M. Mikkelsen Paleontological Research Institution, 1259 Trumansburg Road, Ithaca, New York 14850, U.S.A. Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: The American Malacological Union (now Society), founded in 1931 as a national organization of collectors, students, professionals, and others interested in the holistic study of molluscs, is now an international society mainly of professionals. Although diminished in size, it continues to attract and fund students, publish a respected peer-reviewed journal, and host annual meetings featuring world-class symposia. In recognition of the society’s 75th annual meeting in 2009, I provide a detailed account of the founding, meetings, membership, publications, governance, and societal identity of AMS, gleaned from meeting programs, newsletters, scrapbooks, correspondence, and the memories of Past Presidents and other members. Anniversaries are times of celebration, remembering, Congress as the Populist Party candidate in 1898, and for refl ection, and summarizing.

Today’s AMS is fraught with problems: included Indian artifacts, rocks and minerals, herbarium diminishing membership, increasing costs, decreasing return specimens, stuffed mammals and birds, bird eggs and nests, on investments, and fewer and fewer members willing to hold pinned insects, and the largest shell collection in the state of offi ce.
