PAGE TWO To Choose a President— Who will choose the next president of Penn State? At the last meeting of the Board of Trustees it was de cided that members of the Board themselves are most quali fied to select a president. Consequently James Milholland, acting president of the College and chairman of the Board, was given the authority to choose a committee composed of Trustees which will undertake the tremendously important task of selecting a president. On first examination it seems obvious that the men best qualified to choose the president of a college or uni versity would be in the group which guides the destinies of the institution. But what is the composition of the Board of Trustees? It is made up of appointees of the governor, Penn State graduates elected by the Alumni Association, and delegates elected from agricultural and industrial societies. According to acting-president Milholland, "The Trus tees are aware of the Commonwealth's growing need for the unique educational services of its Land-Grant College." Educational services are supplied mostly by members of the faculty. Therefore, it woovkl seem logical That several of the outstanding educators on campus should be members of the committee to seek and study the qualifications of Penn State's next president. Cooperation between faculty and administration in the governing of an educational institution is not something new. Ten years ago The four municipal colleges in New York City began an important experiment in democratic govern ment that startled the traditional members of the academic world. Provision was made for an elected faculty council Which acted on such things as new faculty appointments, promotions and budgetary matters. Dr. Ordway Tead, noted educator, recently stated that the democratic approach has improved the relationship be tween the faculty and the administration and is carried on in the interests of better education. The ultimate challenge, Dr. Tead observed, is to sup port and protect the teaching profession, provide the stim ulus of enthusiastic leadership and clarify the advancing objectives of education. This result is more likely to be at tained where a democratic approach prevails than under the older pattern, wire a gulf exists between the faculty and the administration. As Iste•prosideut Ralph D. Hetzel once pointed out, the College is made nip of three groups, the students, the fac ulty, and the administration, all of which most work to gether for the best interests of the College. Students are a transitory group and therefore should have Pitt* or no voice in the selection of the next president, while ft Is ()brimss that the lkscufty 'Should have a voice if the man selected is to be as educational as well as an ad. ministrative tender.
