At its organizational meeting in 1915, the AAUP formulated the following statement of objectives: "TO BRING ABOUT more effective coopera tion among the members of the profession in the discharge of their special responsibilities as custodians of the interests of higher education and research in America; to promote a more gen eral and methodical discussion of problems re lating to education in institutions of higher learning; to create means for the authoritative expression of the public opinion of the body of college and university teachers; to make col lective action possible, and in general to main tain and advance the ideals and standards of the profession.” As a mailer of inleresi to individuals al the College, principles of academic freedom as given in the AAUP's "1940 Sialemenl of Prin ciples," are presented: Academic Freedom "(a) THE TEACHER IS ENTITLED to full freedom in research and in the publication oi the results, subject to the adequate perform ance of his other academic duties; but research for pecuniary return should be based upon ar understanding with the authorities of the insti tution. (b) THE TEACHER IS ENTITLED to freedom in the classroom in discussing his subject, but he should be careful not to introduce into his teaching controversial matter which has no re lation to his subject. Limitations of academic freedom because of religious or other aims of the institution should be clearly stated in writing at the time of the appointment. (c) THE COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY teacher is a citizen, a member of a learned profession, and an officer of an educational institution. When he speaks or writes as a citizen, he should be free from institutional censorship of disci pline, but this special position in the community imposes special obligations. As a man of learn ing and an educational officer, he should remem ber that the public may judge his profession and his institution by his utterances. Hence he should at all times be accurate, should exercise appropriate restraint, should show respect for the opinions of others, and should make every effort to indicate that he is not an institutional spokesman.” At a conference of representatives of the AAUP and of the Association of American Col leges in November, 1940, interpretations of the “1940 Statement of Principles” were agreed upon. Point three of the interpretations stipu lated: "If Ihe administration of a college or uni versity feels that a teacher has not observed the admonitions of Paragraph (c) . . . and be lieves that the extra-mural utterances of the teacher have been such as to raise grave doubts concerning his fitness for his position, it may proceed to file charges ... In pressing such charges the administration should re member that teachers are citizens and should be accorded the freedom of citizens. “In such cases the administration must as sume full responsibility and the American Asso ciation of University Professors and the Associa tion of American Colleges are free to make an investigation ” Student Fire Company At least three members of the College staff, Gilbert Crossley, Hummel Fishburn and Henry • Young, fought fires as students some years ago. The company was organized in 1915 without equipment, other, than buckets. A plan was evolved whereby the student fire department worked closely with the town volunteer depart ment whether fix-es were to be fought on campus or in the boro —John Ashbrook THE DAILY CCTLLEOikw. STATE PENNSYLVANIA Not Impressed In the inauguration ceremonies for the new all-College officers yesterday, Wilmer E. Ken worthy, assistant to the President in charge of student affairs, commented that he was “much impressed” with the turnout of voters in this year’s elections. . Perhaps he was, but this writer wasn’t. \ THE 3,671 STUDENTS who voted, comprised roughly 42 per cent of the eligible voters. It is true that this is a slightly higher percentage than usual, but we hardly think it constitutes an impressive figure. It is generally accepted that a college com munity, such as this one, attracts the more - intelligent levels of the population and con sequently groups who should be expected to have most interest in the workings of politics ' and government. Apathy on the part of the student body is the usual answer assigned by editorialists, who ’ probably consume moire space with this topic than any 'other issue throughout the school year. It is easily supported. Take, for instance, those } people who calmly walked by Old Main yester day while the new officers were being sworn in. > STUDENTS. WHO don’t vote, come back with the complaint that there is no use voting be' , cause there are no real issues involved. That i: easily supported too, by a glance at the plat- % forms. These were effectively summed up, we thought, by one fellow who commented that th 6 only\dynamic proposal presented by either side was the one for putting;a big “S” on Nittany . mountain. . . I Perhaps the really impressive thing is that 42 per cent cared enough to vote. —Herbert Stein Gazette ....
