Cabinet Debates NSA;
Discussion Postponed
The majority of All-University Cabinet members involved in a hea debate last night
on whether the University should resume membership in the National Student Asso
cation indicated they would approve such a move.
No filial action was taken as Cabinet members voted unanimously to postpone the
debate until next Thursday. The motion was made by Douglas Moorhead, president of the
Athletic Association.
Robert Bullock, Interfraternity Council president, probably the most outstanding op
ponent to NSA at the meeting, read a list of international objectives of NSA. He asked:
"What does this have to do with the student at Pennsylvania State University?"
770 Given
Academic
Probation
Seven hundred and seventy
students have been placed on aca
demic probation for this semes
ter.
Breakdown shows 687 men and
83 women.
The list of students has been
published in the Faculty Direc
tory so advisers to student or-,
ganizations can check to see if
any one holding an office in the
activity is on prbbation.
Students on academic probation
may participate in extracurricu
lar activities as members, but they
cannot hold an office or be a
member of a committee.
The published list is part of the
crackdown on academic proba
tion conducted by the office of
the dean of men.
University law states that stu
dents who fail 35 per cent of their
credits for any semester, and who
are not dropped because their
An-University average does not
fall below 1.65, will be placed on
academic probation.
All students whose All-Univer
sity averages fall below 1.65, are
also placed on probation. If a
student's All-University average
falls below 1.5, and the student
has not had a 2.2 or better for
hi; "most recent" semester or a
2.0 or better for "each of his two
most recent semesters," he will
be dropped from the University.
Some Colleges also have proba
tion regulations.

Robert Smoot, former NSA co
ordinator on campus, told Cabinet
that the question should not read
"What can NSA do for Penn
State, but what can Penn State
!get out of NSA?"
"Here we sit in our little room
in the Hetzel Union building and
don't know anything about what's
going on in other schools." Sam
uel Walcott, sophomore class pres
ident and a delegate to the August
NSA convention, said.
"What has Penn State ever
done for anybody? rm talking
about students, not graduates." he
said.
Bahrweburg Supports NSA
Robert Bahrenburg, junior class
president, said that "there are
things 7000 miles from here that
concern us. We'll fmd out about
these things by going to NSA
conventions."
Bullock and Norman Miller,
acting chairman of the Board of
Publications, indicated they did
not approve of NSA as a lobbying
organization.
"When students mix with poli
tics, politicians mix with stu
dents," Miller aid.
NSA Not a Lobby
However, Harold Dean, a mem
ber of Cabinet Secretarial staff,
and Assistant Dean of Men Har
old W. Perkins, said that NSA
holds no license to lobby.
Miller, who attacked NSA in an
editorial in yesterday's , Daily
Collegian, said that "NSA might
be doing something, but I'd like
to know what they are doing.
None of the delegates to the Con
vention seem to be able to agree
on that point."
Smoot, early in the debate, dis
puted Miller's editorial.
Officers Directed by Group
Smoot said that the NSA pub
lished a report of the organiza
tion's annual convention and that
the officers snend the year carry
ing out what was passed at the
student convention.
Perkins told Cabinet that "it's
up to Penn State to see that NSA
does what Penn State thinks NSA
should do."
This can be done,- he said, by
sending delegates to the national
convention.
Ray Farabee, vice president of
the student government branch
of NSA, will address Cabinet
members at a special session at
7:30 p.m. Sunday in the assembly
room of the Hetzel Union build
ing.
Farabee will explain the ob
jectives of the organization and
