College Status May Get
Re-examination in Fall
The accredited status of the
College will be checked by the
Middle Stales Association of Col
leges and Secondary Schools
sometime in the future, Wilmer
E. Kenworthy, director of stu
dent affairs, said yesterday.
The re-examination is tenta
tively scheduled for the fall of
1954 and will be "very thorough"
he said.
The accrediting team, 20 or 30
representalives from other
schools, will spend, several days
at the College checking facili
ties, policies; procedures, the
construction program, and other
factors affecting the quality of
education offered students.
Kenworthy noted that the ac
crediting, procedure serves the
College in two ways:
(1) The College considers it
essential to be accredited by the
existing- accrediting agency.
Otherwise, he explained, diplo
mas and transfer credits from
the College would have little
value.
(2) The accrediting procedure
is the basis of a very worthwhile
and rather thorough self-evalu
ation of the College and its fa
cilities-

Much of the work involved in
the accrediting program must be
done before the visitation. This
work involves compiling statis
tics and information about each
school and requires much time
and work. Kenworthy said.
Accredited status is granted
to a college after study of the
reports submitted to the groujo
and information gathered on the -
inspection team's visit.
Committees are being or will
he set up in each school to han
dle the preparation of the pre
liminary reports. These commit
tees are appointed by the deans
of the schools.
The accrediting group will in
vestigate all phases of the Col
lege's educational program, both
graduate and undergraduate.
Quite a few.years have elapsed
since the last checking of the
College's acc r e d italion. The
school's accredited status is
checked periodically, Kenworihy
said.
College personnel have often
participated in the accrediting
and checking of other schools.
The team to check the College
will include instructors and ad
ministrators from other colleges.
The three student-submitted
bills are designed to legally abol
ish discrimination in employ
ment.
Bill I provides an act declaring
discrimination in employment be
cause of race, religion, coloh or
national ancestry illegal and pro
poses the National Labor Rela
tions Board as the bureau to en
force such as act.
Bill II makes similar provision
against discrimination with the
interstate Commerce Commission
as an enforcing agency. A min

delegates would establish the right
of employment without discrim
ination as a, federal civil ' right
