..

Ronald Davis was more than an historian. He was a skilled craftsman well versed in refinishing antique furniture. From this art he took the patience and sense of pride in accomplishment, per­ meating every aspect of his life. As a man and a father he practiced the virtues of generosity, strong sense of humor and intelligent compassion. He often remarked that his ego provided him with the certainty of an afterlife and he lived this life honestly and with great pride. A friend to his students; they sought him for more than academic counseling. He became involved in their lives as only a friend is ever allowed to be. Ronald Davis left behind a wonderful wife and three small children. He left in the hearts of all a sense of gladness to have had the fortune of knowing him. Roger Williams has lost more than its most gifted historian. Much more. James Williams Page z THE QUILL Mnnday, December 13, 1971

Bristol Students Face Crisis

(This Message Paid and Prepared ·by Bristol Dean of Students Office)

As of 12 :00 Noon. on Thur'sday D~cember 8, only six students have picked up nomination petitions

for the Student Affairs Council. We would again like to inform you that there are six student

positions open for the Council. This Council must operate if the rest of the Student Activity apparatus

is to function.· There are important issues now facing the College that require student input. The

Student Affairs Cou~cil has to provide for student appointments to various governing committees

(e.g. act:reditation, Dean's Search Committee, and faculty committees).

t . It must be apparent thay your student activity fee has been put 'to minimal use this semester. With , good conscience, it would be unethical to continue to tax students for services not performed. It would also be futile to proceed with elections without a bare· minim um of ten or twelve candidates. I .

y

Please consider the fact that student activites are an outgr9wth of student government and student .

institutional involvement. There are only very limited alternatives to this situation. We are now

trying such an alternative, which will fail without your support.

December 14th is the proposed deadline for student candic.1ates to sub~it their nomination papers

for t.he election. This deadline cannot be extended more than one day. If on Wednesday the situation

is still not promising, elections will be called off. At this stage it is my understanding that negotiation

would begin for the crediting of this past semester's student activity fee and the rescinding of the

upcoming semester's fee. This is the worst possible alternafive for Rog~r Williams College students and the community. The importance of extra-curricular activj ties on a largely commuter campus are I crucial and a curtailment of such would be tragic.

Petitions are available in the Dean of Students Office for those who are interested in the directions . of Roger Williams College. )
