Oswald Directs Policies
For Student Participation
President Has Urged Student
Participation
by John Casciotti
Student Commonwealth
Campus Member
University Council
More than nine months ago
President Oswald released a
directive that carried great
potential importance for every
Penn State student. Yet I'm sure
most of the students reading this
article have never heard of it.
It established a set of principles
for student participation in
academic affairs. These prin
ciples were developed by the
University Council at the
President's request. It was the
Council's first order of business
after being formed early in 1971.

The report began by naming one
overriding principle: "That in
dividuals who are directly af
fected by decisions should have
the opportunity to participate
appropriately in making those
decisions."
The directive further
established guidelines for student
involvement stating that it
"should be active rather than
passive," and it "should move
toward full and direct par
ticipation in academic affairs."
The overall objective was to
"increase the University's
responsiveness to changing
educational needs."
The primary emphasis was on
providing for teaching and course
evaluation by students to improve
the quality of what is being of
fered. It called on faculty
members to employ methods to
achieve this. Active, student
participation was also to be
established in areas such as
curriculum evaluation and
design, evaluation of advisors and
the advising program, . con
sideration of prospective faculty,
and appraisal of the cumulative
direction of research at P.S.U.
The University Council, and
President also reaffirmed the
necessity of active faculty par-

The President directed all
COmmonwealth Campus
Directors and Deans of Colleges
of Penn State to implement these
policies. By now you should all be
seeing results in this area. Dr.
Oswald has also indicated his

Security
Changing
Captain Skidmore, formerly of
the Behrend Security force, has
moved to the Commerce Building
to take over the Erie office. The
force has acquired a new mobile
patrolman, Robert B. Sauers, the
newest in a series. of beatmen who
have been hired in an attempt to
form a fairly permanent squad.
The beatmen have tended to
come and go quite often in the
past.
The Security Office is at
tempting to find a suitable squad
of men through all the changes;
officers, who will be impersonal
but friendly and stern.

According to ON THE MOVE
Managing Editor Ellen Kranick,
the content of the April 1972 issue
of ON THE MOVE will be "even
more diversified and relevant,"
Articles on campus life,
academic policies and common
problems, sports and other
material will be featured.
As the magazine's name im
plies, this issue will also feature
articles on student projects which
help to make Penn State an active
educational social and political
force.
"As we're putting the issue
together, "said Miss Kranick,

feedback from the Campus

editors. Students who remember
our first issue are asked for their
suggestions and can write to me
