Page Two H ! Editorial Opinion •X'#& /■ / Student Judiciary Overruled Last year, the Student Judiciary rendered its decision without the intervention of university officials. This year Dean Lane has used his intervening power to render the Student Judiciary decisions invalid on the three shower cases. By executing this power, the question has been raised, does the Student Judiciary really have any decision making power, or better put, do the students of Behrend really have the power to restrict their own behavior? With the university’s iron fist constantly being held over the judiciary proceedings, the students of this organization must make decisions which will stay within the guide lines given to them by the university. Yes, the university actually gives members of the judiciary a very thorough look on how to conduct their proceedings and how to make their all important decisions. With the students having to make decisions according to pre-determined rules, the university is reaping many benefits. 'The Student Judiciary is taking a time consuming job off the officials of this campus. Also, the university has diverted possible aggressive attitudes created by decision-making from the university officials to the students. But in most cases, the Student Judiciary is merely acting as a tool for university officials instead of the student body. The Student judiciary has not been given a privilege but a job. In order for the judiciary to really represent the students it must first acquire the university’s strongly held power of the ultimate decision.

Who cares-evidently about ten Behrend students who took the time to view the films on ecology shown by the Behrend Ecology Group, the week of April 17 to the 21st. Are these few the only people who live here; who are affected by the environment and what man is doing to it? If not, then where were the other students-the ones who shake their heads upon being confronted with an outright example of pollution. It seems to me that they just don’t give a damn! I would also like to know what happened to the signs which were posted around campus. Students cannot be informed if that in formation is taken down and thrown away.

I couldn’t count the number of people who stood in Perry Lobby for a few minutes and said that the films were about pollution and then left. Is the subject of pollution so irrelevant to them? And then there are those people who attend an event for the sheer pleasure of annoying someone else. To them I extend my sincere hopes that college somehow finds a way to mold them into mature persons rather than allow them to K-Mart Plaza East Month remain as they are-egotistical, loud mouthed, obnoxious dolts who add nothing whatsoever to Behrend Campus. I felt that the films were quite informative, and well worth the time it took to secure them, ob taining them, show them, and return them. To those who did not attend, I feel that you missed something very worthwhile. Earth—Who Cares?? Campus Off May 4,1972 Debby McCall sth term ED Ed Middletown, Pa.
