Howard Sermon ,C,etters to lite ,C,og
Cancellation building of the chapel. I Draft Inequities
To the Editor.
In the Palm Sunday Chapel
Service President John R. How81'd
delivered a sermon entitled '"A
Rediscovery of Matthew."" In this
sermon President Howard made
$ome kind remms about Martin
Luther King, read some verses
from Matt!M,w' s Gospel and then
proceeded to tell the congrega,..
don about lhe clairvoyant Edgar
Cayce. President Howard ex
plained that Edgar Cayce had had
a ''profound lnf]uenc:e" on his
llfe "in the last month..' 1
The rest of the sermon con
sisted of a polemical account of
Cayce•s 33.000 "heallngs.'' his
"contact'' with the ··IJnlversal
Stream of Knowledge'' and bis
doctrtM of re-Incarnation. Ols
missing Christ in one sentence
as having been "made obscure by
the organ!:ted church," How81'd
then held up a book about Cayce
and proclaimed that Cayce had
made U!c' s meaning more clear
to b1m than any other man in
history, Including Jesus Ouist.
Against th!., I must protest.
When I was told that the $500,000
chapel was '"Christian" I had to
protesL And now. when the pres
ident of the college, who ls an
Elder of the Presbyterian Church,
proclaims Edgar Cayce from the
pulpit on Palm Sunday, I must
protest.
The issue here is one of re
sponsll>IJ.lly, and the President Is
one who has at many times spoken
to us all about Individual re..
sponslblllty. The question ls: hos
be DOW acted lrruponslbly -..
on Elder of the Church and the
President of this college? I want
ro ask President Howard this:
Wa.s it not a misrepresentation
to tell the Chapel Committee and
the ChaplaJn. and to have an
nounced on all the bulletin
boards, that _YO!l:I' sermon for the
-ffrst diy of7-tofy Week was 11A
Rediscovery o.f Matthew?"
It seems to me that et.th.er the
President thinks he has found
some truth so enlightening, so
marvelous, so obviously a revei,..
tlon from God that be can lightly

President Howard has handled his
office as Elder, his position as
President ancl bis place ln the
pulpit on Palm Sunday with gross
Irresponsibility.
As a Christian who takes Jesus
Cbrist seriously as the Lord of

Howard's Irresponsible use of the

Non-violence
To the E'.dltor-:
Dr. Mu-tin Luther King ls dead
and h!s philosophy of non-violence
ls In critical condition.
The 0cearfull mourners••
throughout our major cities have,
In three days, destroyed what took
a lifetime to produce. How Ironic
for a man who believed and prac
ticed non-violence to die ln such
a way, but bow pitiful It Is co
have that philosophy die with him.
Only ID America would an entire
nation mourn the de\lh of a great
anti-violence supporter and then
riot ror three days to show hs
concern. Only In America would
a man be beaten to death with
bis own olive branch. And only
in America will the assassln be

What ls wrong with America any

The total failure of Congress
to rewrite a fundamentally un
sound drafr Jaw last year threat
ens us today wlth a complete
dislocation or both personal 'and
national plans. With the provtso
that older men be drafted first,
and the Nati.onal Security Coun
cil decision In February of this
year to end oil graduate defer.
ments (except tn medlclne). we
find that beginning In June, almost
no one without a college edUcatJon
will be drafted, while the bwk of
our best educated cltl:tens wfll
be lnduc"'d Into lhe military.
1n an effort to correct the In
equities of the old system. lhe
President and Congress heve $UC
ceeded ln completely reversing
them. Formerly, a collegegradu ..
ate <'.ould go on t.o work for his
master$ degree whUe successfully
keeping his deferment. This was
grossly unfair to those who could
nor_ for reasons of money or ln.
telligeoce, go to college and grad
school. As a consequence. in<h:ac
tees came Jrom poon.-r back
grounds. Many were Negro. In
a complete about-face it h.as now
been decided that, In effect, very
few persons w.dc.r 22 y~ars of
age wfll be dr•!ted In 1968-69.
Grad School Loss
Under the changed rules, all new
Ph.D."s wfll be drafted, as will
many scientists, engineers and
ceach~s who have been deferred
occup3,tion.ally until now (occupa
tional deferments have also been
e.nded). AU new dralt..ellglble
master's degree recipients and all
qualified ftrSt yeor graduate stu
dents will be inducted.. And, the
way things look now, a large per.
centage of the class of '68 will
also find Itself In the military
before the year Is out.
There will be approximately
320,000 men in the manpower pool
comprised of ages 22-26. Nearly
all have college degrees. Older
men Without ~cation ue either
veterans or b;ivc already been
Inducted. The military esdmates
It wfll need to draft about 240,000
men ln the coming year, but a
level this low is dependent upon
approXimareJy 100,000 volunteers
coming from the 22-26 age group.
The military, then. needs about
340,000 men from the post.gradu
ate B.ge gl"Ollp of about the same
number. Anyone sound of mind
and body who graduatesthlssprlng
or ts tn grad school below the
second year has excellent chances
of being Inducted lo the neJ<t 12
months unless the rules of the
game are cltanged.
The effects of this change on
graduate schools are catastrophic.
Admlnistntors estimate a drop
ln enrollme:nr of between 40 ro
SO percent. A 60 percent reduc
tion of students entering grad
schools ls predicted. The effect
this has on untvcrs-lty budgets is
obvious.
Only sllghtly !es, obvtous Is the
damage that will be done to many
large universities• unde.rgraduate
programs when the teaching
as.slstance of first-year master
candidates ls withdrawn, Some
schools expect to lose half of
their teaching assistants In vital
areas. This will result In wider.
gr-actuate courses becoming fer
more crowded and l.mpersona.L
Nor will anyone be le.rt to seal!
the approximately 70 junior col
leges In the country If the supply
of men with master's degrees ls
cut oft ln two or three years.
this pinch will b,, felt at all leveb
of the educational system from
grade school to college. Old,
well established graduate schools
can survive by admltdng more
women and by generally tower
ing their entrance requirements.
New graduate schools which seek
a high quality level or education
and are not now ovc:rwhclmOO with
applicants will simply not be able

Dean Simmons said also t1utt
the low number of student d.J.s
missals due to acadernJc rea
sons might also contribute to
academic laxity,
When questioned about their re
action and evalua lion ol the peer
group system, support among
sophomores was much strong
er than that given the system by
the upperclassmen. There was a
very marked decline lo support
from the sophomore t0 senior
year.
An Interesting point tl>at Sim
mons found was that the highest
support for tl>e peer group sys
mm en.me from those students
who had already graduated. As
the number of years following
gnduadon locreased support for
the peer group sys"'m grew as
weJL
The followtng are some or tl>e
concluslons that Dean Simmons
found in his srudy.
The e><lstlng concept of re
sponsible freedom does In fact
create a campus clima.te which
provides srudents wltll greater
responsibility, more opportWll
tles for decision making and
more reallsdc (reedom.
Student support of this peer
group concept Is Ina-easing ~t
49,1 per cent does not represent
a hlgb degree of undergraduate
support.
Deeper understanding or the ef
lectS or the peer group coocep,
upon the maruradon process is
not Cully realized ualil deparwre
from this environment.
Responsible freedom Is a con
troVer$lel and stressful epproach
to student personnel adrn.ln1srra
tlon. LeWls and Clerk College Is
quite unlike other lnstlrutlons and
slgolftcantly 1n contrast wt.Ill tile
antlclpared environmental pattern
!or lhe same type of measuring

perceive tbls college to be slg
nlflcantly higher than tl>e mean
lor the general Uberal arts type
of campus on the awareness and
propriety scales and significantly
lower on the scholarship. pnc
dcallty and co.mmunlty scales.
Dean Simmons made several
recommendations derived from
the findings or his study, The
first recommend• don would be
for tl>e college admissions office
to present a more r-ea.Usrlc plc
wre of the college, He believes
that complete cam-~s Involve
ment ls necessary t0 consider
what should be proposed relative
to lhe unJquely low scores oo the
scholarship dimension.
The peer group system must be
stretlgthened. This could be done
by improving internal communJ
catlon, Increasing the effective
ness or <he J-Board and by imp!.,_
mendng e form or srudent gov
ernment mere aligned •to the peer
group system.
Another area of improvement
would be <he establishment of a
teStlng program to better under
stand what happens to the srudent
during hls lour year experience
at Lewis and Clack. He would
also like to see a considerable
amowu of institutional research
Initiated,
Dean Simmons would IIJce to

and the recommendations that he

Cancellation building of the chapel. I Draft Inequities
To the Editor.
In the Palm Sunday Chapel
Service President John R. How81'd
delivered a sermon entitled '"A
Rediscovery of Matthew."" In this
sermon President Howard made
$ome kind remms about Martin
Luther King, read some verses
from Matt!M,w' s Gospel and then
proceeded to tell the congrega,..
don about lhe clairvoyant Edgar
Cayce. President Howard ex
plained that Edgar Cayce had had
a ''profound lnf]uenc:e" on his
llfe "in the last month..' 1
The rest of the sermon con
sisted of a polemical account of
Cayce•s 33.000 "heallngs.'' his
"contact'' with the ··IJnlversal
Stream of Knowledge'' and bis
doctrtM of re-Incarnation. Ols
missing Christ in one sentence
as having been "made obscure by
the organ!:ted church," How81'd
then held up a book about Cayce
and proclaimed that Cayce had
made U!c' s meaning more clear
to b1m than any other man in
history, Including Jesus Ouist.
Against th!., I must protest.
When I was told that the $500,000
chapel was '"Christian" I had to
protesL And now. when the pres
ident of the college, who ls an
Elder of the Presbyterian Church,
proclaims Edgar Cayce from the
pulpit on Palm Sunday, I must
protest.
The issue here is one of re
sponsll>IJ.lly, and the President Is
one who has at many times spoken
to us all about Individual re..
sponslblllty. The question ls: hos

on Elder of the Church and the

ro ask President Howard this:
Wa.s it not a misrepresentation
to tell the Chapel Committee and
the ChaplaJn. and to have an
nounced on all the bulletin
boards, that _YO!l:I' sermon for the
-ffrst diy of7-tofy Week was 11A

The 0cearfull mourners••

Only ID America would an entire

The total failure of Congress
to rewrite a fundamentally un
sound drafr Jaw last year threat
ens us today wlth a complete
dislocation or both personal 'and
national plans. With the provtso
that older men be drafted first,
and the Nati.onal Security Coun
cil decision In February of this
year to end oil graduate defer.
ments (except tn medlclne). we
find that beginning In June, almost
no one without a college edUcatJon
will be drafted, while the bwk of
our best educated cltl:tens wfll
be lnduc"'d Into lhe military.
1n an effort to correct the In
equities of the old system. lhe
President and Congress heve $UC
ceeded ln completely reversing
them. Formerly, a collegegradu ..
ate <'.ould go on t.o work for his
master$ degree whUe successfully
keeping his deferment. This was
grossly unfair to those who could
nor_ for reasons of money or ln.
telligeoce, go to college and grad
school. As a consequence. in<h:ac
tees came Jrom poon.-r back
grounds. Many were Negro. In
a complete about-face it h.as now
been decided that, In effect, very
few persons w.dc.r 22 y~ars of
age wfll be dr•!ted In 1968-69.
Grad School Loss
Under the changed rules, all new
Ph.D."s wfll be drafted, as will
many scientists, engineers and
ceach~s who have been deferred
occup3,tion.ally until now (occupa
tional deferments have also been
e.nded). AU new dralt..ellglble
master's degree recipients and all
qualified ftrSt yeor graduate stu
dents will be inducted.. And, the
way things look now, a large per.
centage of the class of '68 will
also find Itself In the military
before the year Is out.
There will be approximately
320,000 men in the manpower pool
comprised of ages 22-26. Nearly
all have college degrees. Older
men Without ~cation ue either
veterans or b;ivc already been
Inducted. The military esdmates
It wfll need to draft about 240,000
men ln the coming year, but a
level this low is dependent upon
approXimareJy 100,000 volunteers
coming from the 22-26 age group.
The military, then. needs about
340,000 men from the post.gradu
ate B.ge gl"Ollp of about the same
number. Anyone sound of mind
and body who graduatesthlssprlng
or ts tn grad school below the
second year has excellent chances
of being Inducted lo the neJ<t 12
months unless the rules of the
game are cltanged.
The effects of this change on
graduate schools are catastrophic.
Admlnistntors estimate a drop
ln enrollme:nr of between 40 ro
SO percent. A 60 percent reduc
tion of students entering grad
schools ls predicted. The effect
this has on untvcrs-lty budgets is
obvious.
Only sllghtly !es, obvtous Is the
damage that will be done to many
large universities• unde.rgraduate
programs when the teaching
as.slstance of first-year master
candidates ls withdrawn, Some
schools expect to lose half of
their teaching assistants In vital
areas. This will result In wider.
gr-actuate courses becoming fer
more crowded and l.mpersona.L
Nor will anyone be le.rt to seal!
the approximately 70 junior col

of men with master's degrees ls

this pinch will b,, felt at all leveb
of the educational system from
grade school to college. Old,
well established graduate schools
can survive by admltdng more
women and by generally tower
ing their entrance requirements.
New graduate schools which seek
a high quality level or education
and are not now ovc:rwhclmOO with

Dean Simmons said also t1utt
the low number of student d.J.s
missals due to acadernJc rea
sons might also contribute to
academic laxity,
When questioned about their re
action and evalua lion ol the peer
group system, support among
sophomores was much strong
er than that given the system by
the upperclassmen. There was a
very marked decline lo support
from the sophomore t0 senior
year.
An Interesting point tl>at Sim
mons found was that the highest
support for tl>e peer group sys
mm en.me from those students
who had already graduated. As
the number of years following
gnduadon locreased support for
the peer group sys"'m grew as
weJL
The followtng are some or tl>e
concluslons that Dean Simmons
found in his srudy.
The e><lstlng concept of re
sponsible freedom does In fact
create a campus clima.te which
provides srudents wltll greater
responsibility, more opportWll
tles for decision making and
more reallsdc (reedom.
Student support of this peer
group concept Is Ina-easing ~t
49,1 per cent does not represent
a hlgb degree of undergraduate
support.
Deeper understanding or the ef
lectS or the peer group coocep,
upon the maruradon process is
not Cully realized ualil deparwre
from this environment.
Responsible freedom Is a con
troVer$lel and stressful epproach
to student personnel adrn.ln1srra
tlon. LeWls and Clerk College Is
quite unlike other lnstlrutlons and
slgolftcantly 1n contrast wt.Ill tile

perceive tbls college to be slg
nlflcantly higher than tl>e mean
lor the general Uberal arts type
of campus on the awareness and
propriety scales and significantly
lower on the scholarship. pnc
dcallty and co.mmunlty scales.
Dean Simmons made several
recommendations derived from
the findings or his study, The
first recommend• don would be
for tl>e college admissions office
to present a more r-ea.Usrlc plc
wre of the college, He believes
that complete cam-~s Involve
ment ls necessary t0 consider
what should be proposed relative
to lhe unJquely low scores oo the
scholarship dimension.
The peer group system must be
stretlgthened. This could be done
by improving internal communJ
catlon, Increasing the effective
ness or <he J-Board and by imp!.,_
mendng e form or srudent gov
ernment mere aligned •to the peer
group system.
Another area of improvement
would be <he establishment of a
teStlng program to better under
stand what happens to the srudent
during hls lour year experience
at Lewis and Clack. He would
also like to see a considerable
amowu of institutional research
Initiated,
Dean Simmons would IIJce to
meet With any Interested group
on CO!'!'J>lS to discuss bis sll!dy
and the recommendations that he
reels would be beneficial to tile
