people will work for ten neek , t this sun imen
'chic pl'Ojat s, just the beginning of a long
range social action program initiated by students, faculty,
administrators, town and campus clergymen and State
College residents
The program, designed to aid in community organ
ization. citizenship education and voter registration. was
formed in response to an invitaton Isom the Rev. Martin
Luther King, Jr, for local community and campus leaders
to form a SCOPE chapter. (Summer Community Organiza
tion for Political Education).
Groups Involved
Six groups have pooled their efforts and resources
for the project. They ale Hillel Thundation, the Lutheran
Student Association, Student Union for Racial Equality
(SURE), the Newman Student Association, the State Col
lege Committee on Human Rights and the University Chris
t tan Association. (representing ten denominations).
Members of the Penn State in the South have been in
direct contact with James Richardson of the Beaufort
County Voters League, the group which requested the
assistance of the Penn State project.
Both white and Negro South Carolinians have greeted
the news of the Penn State gloup's assignment to Beaufort
with enthusiasm.
Southern Cooperation
"The South Carolina Council on Human Relations
looks forward to working cooperatively with the Penn
State in the South project," according to T. J. Leccien, an
official of that organization.
Both recruiting and fund-raising drives are now in full
swing. Student:, faculty, administvatora and townspeople
are urged to either go for the len week period or support
someone who is going. The estimated cost of helping
support each worker is 5350.
A screening committee hi- been formed to screen

Best and Worst: the Term in Review
From.' - ;' - oam *;:in ''Toth to ,Mall Soap '..t.oxes
By LAURIE DEVINE
Collegian News Editor
It was the best of times; it was the worst of times. It
was the time of Vutacw's resignation, of soapbox speeches
on the Mall, of the return of Froth, of Stone Valley sunsets.
It was spring term '65 at Penn State.
And suddenly the student revolution sweeping the
nation's college campuses since last fall's actions at Berke
ley came to the University.
Starting early in the term with a fast-paced campaign
for the Undergraduate Student Government elections un
der the theme students should have more rights and re
sponsibilities, the term peaked when the controversial Viet
Cong movie was shown here April 23.
Weeks before the black and white propaganda film
reached the campus, Peter Vujacic, physics professor at the
Ogontz Center, resigned his post in protest of the showing
of the film at the Commonwealth campus.
But the furor kicked up by the professor's resignation
lost sonic of its impact, except among a few Philadelphia
organizations which later honored Vujacic for patriotism,
when University President Eric A. Walker said the Yugo
slavian-born instructor had been slated to resign next fall
anyway
So. amid protests and counter-protests, Russell Stetler,
Haverford student who narrated the Viet Cong film, pre
epted his program. The movie, raucously jeered by some

The present "arts explosion" also indicates it is time the
University added to the good art work it possesses. In the
category of sculpture the University has a minimal amount.

The issue of student rights is the local point of the fourth
installment of the Student Allah s Research survey report
currently being compiled by Prem S. Dua, consultant to SAR
who was in charge of the protect.
The survey, which was conducted near the end of last term,
was based on a random sample drawn from the entire under
graduate population of University Park and leatured a 187-
item questionnaire. Students completing the survey numbered
1,380 or 9.2 per cent of the population.
Results are being released with the approval of the offices
of Lester S. Hamel, SAR director and Robert G. Bernreuter,
vice president for student affairs. Miss Dua's compilation
aide is Louis Adams, a graduate student in the SAR office.
This installment, according to it Dua, deals with the
results of survey questions asked in the context ol the "free
speech movement" and the social and political rights issues
ith Illeh many students are involved.
This involvement demonstrates an awakening of concern
and commitment on the part of American youth to the signifi
cant trends of their time. she noted, and the SAR survey
attempted to explore students' observations and experiences
regarding the issues of the clay.
The following is a composite picture drawn from a series
of questions resolving around the issue ol how students perceive
their campus experience in terms of rights and treedoms
actually enjoyed by them in their status as students.
With regard to the broader issues of freedom of speech.
72 per cent, of those polled agreed, in general, that "no re
strictions have been experienced by them in their freedom of
speech during their University career."
By ROBERT ROPELEWSKI
"The biggest problem of stu
dents is that. prior to coming
to college, Dad provided the
buck and as a result, there
was little value to the dollar.
'Now, the student has to de
cide for himself what he's
going to do with that buck, be
cause he only gets a limited
number of them from home.
"Now. they have to exercise
some judgment in their spend
ing, because there are many
outside interests vying for their
dollars. In many cases, some
one else was doing much of
the htn ing for them before they
came to college."
This is the explanation that
challenged him to do likewise
The good doctor gracefully resolved the situation by
speaking informally at an open speech in the HUB on May
13. presenting the Administration's views on subjects rang
ing over the whole term's activities.
That very same night Dean of Women Dorothy J. Lipp
spoke in Atherton Hall concerning the events at Berkeley.
Her comments aroused a storm of protests and letters to
the editor.
In the midst of this undertow, the University made
its annual plea to the State Legislature for a 56.700,000
increase in allotments, bringing the total amount requested
to $31.000.000.
Just last week the House Committee on Higher Educa
tion heard testimony from students, faculty and adminis
trators here to better decide how the state's education bill
will be sliced. \\Talker spent a grueling 2 1 2 hours before
the committee. The state's appropriations are still pending
and should be decided shortly.
This was the term of campaigns. Launched by fifth

that a Fine Arts Committee on Art and Architecture be
