Pennsylvania State University: A New Era The Pennsylvania State College today has become Pennsylvania State University, a name long-due for this institution. The change to university status came yester day with final approval by Judge Ivan Walker of the Centre County Court of Common Pleas. Filing the action with the prothonotary is the only legal step remaining. The name change comes on the eve of Penn Slate's 100th anniversary and climaxes a cen tury of constant progress. Since 1855. Penn State has grown from the struggling Farmer's High School to one of the nation's largest universities. The change to university status comes as no great surprise to most. Some had expected the change to come in 1955 as part of the centen nial celebration. But once the Board of Trustees filed the formal petition, university status was not far off. It will be some time, of course, until students overcome reference to "the College" and begin to say "the University." It will be a while before University stationery, seals, and other effects are available. It will be some time be- Tribunal Proposal: New Plan for Justice An intelligent iT9(v idea has been presented to All-College Cabinet concerning revision of Tribunal. The revision would establish Tribunal as judge and jury, rather than judge, jury, and prosecutor as is now the case. , It is obvious that a fair trial is endangered when Tribunal must ■ not only judge a case, but present the charges against the accused. The new plan would provide a Tribunal marshal who would gather the evidence and present charges against the accused. The plan would also provide for a list of from five to 25 students who could act as counsel for the accused. This would not only relieve Tribunal of the duties of presenting charges, but it would also provide a system of obtaining positive evidence concerning the validity of the charges. Under the present system. Tribunal finds it self in something of a stalemate when there are no witnesses at the hearing and the ac cused bluntly proclaims his innocence. Thai the student is brought before Tribunal is the only indication Tribunal now has of determin ing a student's guilt—someone at some time thought the student was wrong. Providing defense counselors for the accused will give the student a better chance for pre venting his being judged guilty when he is innocent.

But Penn State is still a uni versity. Many have been skeptical of the merits of such a name change. They have contended educational quality cannot be altered with a mere name change. They are wrong. University status can bring Penn State in creased prestige and funds. These most cer tainly will produce an increased quality of education.' Penn State today enters on a new era of progress. That it has been a university for years cannot be questioned. Formal recognition of this facf can, and will, mean much to students, faculty, and administration. But more impor tant, it can mean much to the state. In a true university, someone has said, there is light, liberty, and learning. As it enters on its new, era, the University must keep such ideals iii mind. Growth is the only evidence, of life. Penn State has grown, and today that growth has been recognized. Penn State has achieved university status—a status it has long and richly deserved. presented the plan to cabinet, he said the Tri bunal marshal would have to be interested in justice above personal attainment. That was a great understatement. Any student chosen for the position of marshal would be under a tre mendous moral burden. This is perhaps the only flaw in the proposal. It will he difficult to find a competent stu dent who is willing, much less anxious, to bring repeated charges against his fellow stu dents. It is entirely possible that he would soon become a deeply disliked person. This does not mean jusiice should be subor dinated to popularity. But few students would agree to take a job that has no chance to gain them friends, or carries the risk of losing friends or creating a greater number of enemies than friends. And what does the Tribunal mar shal gain for the loss of his popularity? Unless the person chosen is of- a peculiarly mercenary nature, monetary compensation wiil not be the answer. The answer will probably have to be found in the rather dubious job of convincing the student body that the marshal is bound to act in the interests of justice and the student body—a job that society in similar situations has failed to do in the years before arriving on campus. a ® a Chero., and Chem. expecting to receive their degrees in 1954 on Nov. 17. .

Little Man on Campus Disarmament Talks Every year the United Nations takes up the possibilities of an international disarmament agreement, every year Andrei Vishinsky and others make their same remarks, and every year everybody knows that nothing is going to be done. since it never produces anything except repetitive recriminations like Vishinsky’s speech Friday, isn’t it dropped until some change in world conditions arouses hope that further discussion might be worth while? The answer is that the dele gates feel the disarmament commission is something like the UN itself—a symbol and a stepping stone toward things as they should be instead of things ' as they are. You will remember that after the Baruch plan failed of agree ment, proposed that the old committee on conventional arms and the committee on atom ic controls be merged to seek a general disarmament agreement. The United States opposed this for several years, thinking piece meal agreements might be possi ble where a general plan was not. Then President Truman, in an ad dress to the General Assembly, suddenly switched and the disar -1 m ament commission was formed. ; It never got anywhere. ! The Russians proposed that the great powers cut their armed forces by a flat 30 per cent. That would have left her with the same relative super iority which existed at the lime. Nobody bit. Later, the Western powers pro posed a ceiling program, with Russia, China and the United States to be equalized at 1,500,000 men in the armed forces, Britain and France with 800,000 each, and other countries limited to one, per cent of their populations. These ceilings were to be part of an overall agreement on ships, planes, tanks, etc., and on pro hibition of weapons of mass de struction—A-bombs and H-bombs. This would have required each nation to report its current strength and provided for a UN check on the reports. Russia balked, just as she has always balked at any proposal that pro vided for inspection, instead of having the other nations rely on her word. That’s what blocked atomic controls, on the surface, although Russia’s fear that the West would use controls to crip ple her development of . atomic power was always considered a prime factor in her attitude. Russian proposals on the whole subject-have always pul —Dick Rau *./ d r s ~~
