some of the following inquiries.
This Marine contingent.. ,was it
a landing party of some sort or
had they·been invited by a duly

college? In the· case of TAC
students aiding a · priest pour
blood on draft-card records, was
there any prosecution
in this
case? Just recently, in Baltimore,
so'me students, priests and nuns
were placed in jail for similar
violations. At any rate, what
action did the college officials
take in these matters? In your
answer to the ex-student you
attempted to defend the action
of TAC by stating they were

aspects.
SAC members
have been
attending
the
frequent
department
meetings
as
representatives
of the student
body and also to remain aware
of the general trend of the
curriculum study.
In general, the student opinion
discussions held in the form of
floor meetings in the various
dormatories
have
been
stimulating
and
profitable.
Attendance
has been good
although it certainly could be
better.
Probably the greatest
good being achieved is the fact
that for the first time students
and faculty are meeting on equal
grounds to communicate, and to
get to know and understand one
another. Each has made quite an
impression upon-the other.
These preliminary discussions
are rapidly coming to an end.
Weekly reports on each meeting
have been presented orally to
APC
by
the
student
.representatives
as well as the
recorded
minutes
of each
discussion. These, in turn, will
go before the entire faculty for
their consideration early in May.
Every suggestion made by every
student
is incorporated
into
.these reports.
Any student, not having had
the opportunity to attend one of
these meetings and who would
like to submit suggestions and
opinions, is inivted to contact

discussions

We let the marines enter and

complain about. those "freaks"

throw food at them.
Granted, Floyd is inco.nsistcnt

wrong
in doing their skit on the

of the food or the

I

would like to
ask why is it Floyd that is

know for a fact that he wasn't
the only one who participated in
these acts. ls it right to criticize
Floyd alone? No, of course not.
So you
see the others are
inconsistent also.

Of course, this is
by

a way to justify Floyd's action.
It is just a comment to show· us
that we must look at ourselves

Dear Sir:
I hear that this will be-the last
.. issue for a while so I had beUer
say this now while I still can.
Ever since I· came here (way
back in ·
1965) I
have seen faults
in Marist College. I have tried
my best to rectify these faults
primarily
in the
field
of
academics and experience has
taught m1c that
90%
of the battle
is convincing the faculty and
administration that the students
are sincere.
The problem is this. There is a
certain minority of students and
faculty who are working like
crazy to make Marist into a
better place to live and study.
This work is very discouraging.
Why should these people work
so hard for a majority who
couldn't carare less? Why should
people fight for the privilege of
having a cold beer while you're
sitting in your room, when the
lawns outside are converted into
a garbage dump for empties?
Why should seven men sit and
work over the summer and every
week since then to develop
a
curriculum which will allow the
student
tremendous
academic
freedom, when we know that
the-majority only want to take
the
easiest
.. gut"
courses
possible or teach without being
challenged?
Well,
