Two Resolutions OK'd
:y All-College Cabinet
. Two major resolutions on student-faculty relations were approved by All-College Cabinet
at its meeting Thursday night. The resolutions were presented by Marian Whitely, chairman of
the encampment subcommittee on student-faculty relations.
The resolutions resulted from discussions presented at the
at Mt. Alto.
The first resolution asked that
the counseling of students be rec
ognized as an integral and im
portant part of the duties of in
structors. Suggestions as to how
this could be done included keep
ing the number of advisees per
adviser as low as possible, hav
ing advisers organize a systematic
schedule for advisory meetings,
and giving particular attention to
freshmen and other new students.
The second resolution presented
by Miss Whitely asked that faculty
and students alike, in an attitude
of mutual benefit, be encouraged
to sponsor a program of informal
social and personal relationships.

through model conventions and
legislatures, ICG offers amateur
politicians the chance to learn
processes of government.

campus since 1937, ICG also en
ables students to become familiar
with parliamentary pro c e d u r e
through political debates.

tion for an annual state-wide con
vention of 65 member schools and
institutions. These schools send
ICG representatives from five dif
ferent regions in the state. The
College belongs to the central re
gion.

gion, Hand, has the job of coordi
nating and stimulating ,activity
within his region and presiding
over the regional convention prior
to the annual state convention.

will be excused from classes on

their homes to vote.
Voting excuse forms are avail
able at the Student Union desk
in Old Main.
The excuse form must be signed
by a local election official when
the student casts his vote in his
home precinct. The student should
then present the excuse form to
the instructor of each class from
which he wishes to be excused
Embodied in • this resolution
were suggestions that instructors
make a special effort to get to
know students, that every advan
tage be taken for faculty-student
project work, that new social fa
cilities be created, and , that the
faculty -make full use of present
facilities.
In addition, the second resolu
tion suggested that faculty mem
bers be encouraged to invite stu
dents to their homes, and that
faculty be encouraged to read
the Daily Collegian in order to
follow student activities.
Another encampment idea was
brought before cabinet by James
Plyler, All-College vice president,
who asked each member of cabi
net to select two students from
its group to take part in the lead
ership training program planned
by the cabinet project council.
The project council was set up as
a suggestion developing from the
encampment talks.
Playing of Alma Mater
Cabinet approved a proposal by
David Pellnitz, chairman of the
Board of Publications that the
playing of the Alma Mater at the
end of football games be con
tinued until at least after the
William and Mary game.
The report of the Freshman
Customs Board, made by Mary
Petitgout co-chairman, called cus
toms so far "successful." She also
called 'the freshman cheering at
the Temple game "outstanding"
and urged upperclassmen to con
tinue to enforce customs.
Samuel Nowell, chairman of
Campus Chest, announced to cab
inet that this year's campaign for
funds, with a goal of $12,000,
would begin about Nov. 1. He al
so reported a profit of $686.85
from the Chest-sponsored Kick
off Dance last week.
Fall Semester '..;!'ayments
*ue Thursday, Fri,-;:ay
Payment of student fees for the fall semester will take place
from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday and Friday in the basement of
Willard Hall.
David C. Hogan Jr., bursar, has announced
fees due per student will be posted Thursday by
ber in Willard Hall basement. He requests that
board for the amount and then
write their checks before getting
into one of the seven lines ar
ranged on an alphabetical plan.
By doing this, students will save
time for themselves and the ad
ministration, Hogan said.
For those students who have
no idea as to the amount of their
fees and have not as yet informed
their parents, the Bursar's office
has prepared a summary of esti
mated fees. These forms have
been sent to dormitories, and if
students have not seen them, Ho
gan requests that they stop in
the Bursar's office where there
are still many copies available.
These forms will help each stu
dent in determining the approxi
mate amount of his fees. _
Unlike registr'ation., there is no
specific hour for students to pay
fees. They may pay their fees
during a free hour between 9 a.m.
and 4 p.m, on either of -the two
days. •
The College does not bill Par
ents because students are given
ample time in which to inform
their parents, and also because

Francis T. Hall Jr., professor of electrical engineering, was
elected at yesterday's, meeting of the Faculty 'Advisory Council as
the seventh man of a special committee that will investigate College
loyalty procedures and the results of these procedures, which in
cludes the dismissal of Wendell S. Macß,ae.
The special committee will meet with President Milton S.
Eisenhower this morning.
Arthur H. Reede, chairman of
the council, resigned as the sev
enth member of the committee
because he felt that serving on the
investigating committee and also
acting as chairman of the advis
ory council, to which the Presi
dent may refer questions of the
investigating committee, was an
impossible situation.
Hall, who has accepted the ap
pointment, is not a member of the
advisory council.
The council 'met to discuss pro
cedures to be used by the com
mittee, but instead passed a 1
reso
lution leaving "questions of pro
cedures up to the committee with
the full confidence that the com
mittee would work out procedures
that would be fair to all con
cerned "
Eisenhower suggested to the
council that a six member com
mittee be set up to investigate
College loyalty procedures. The
council approved this suggestion
at a special meeting Monday and
added a seventh man to prevent a
tie vote.
According to Eisenhower's pro
posal, members of the Tenure
Board and the Faculty Loyalty
Review Board will serve on the
committee.
Members., of the Tenure Board
are A. Witt Huchison, professor
of chemistry; Corliss R. Kinny,
professor of fuel technology; mem
bers of the Loyalty Review Board

of business law; Kinsley R. Smith,
