Spring registration
approaches fall mark
The total registration flgure
for the spring semester ls ap¬
proaching   the   record set last
Registrar Robert A. Board said
yesterday 7,583 full and part-
time students had enrolled during
the first two days of registration
and as many as 400 more might
register late.
Total registration last semes¬
ter was 7,979, Dr. Board said.
He said enrollment was about
10 per cent above the 1964 spring
semester mark of 6,790 students
and nearly two per cent lower than
registration last fall.
Enrollment usually experi¬
ences a drop of from five to eight
per cent In the spring term, he
added.
He attributed the high enroll¬
ment to an Increase ln the num¬
ber of transfer students and the
'decision by some people to get
ln now and beat the stlffer ad¬
mission standards which go Into
effect next fall.*
"Students also are trying to
stay ln school longer,* Dr. Board
said,   'and   trying to complete

Aggies by 1970
Two years of planning have
culminated ln the proposal for a
new art building to be construct¬
ed on property east of Maple
Ave., currently used for farm
school crops.
Dr. Orrln Wardle, executive
dean, and Wesley Williams, as¬
sistant professor of art, are the
two main planners. But Williams
said that every staff member of
the art department has contribut¬
ed ideas.
•The great Increase in en¬
rollment ln the past few years
created the need for the new
building,* said Williams. *At
present, the art department and
the home economics department
share the same building. But we
foresee a great need for addition¬
al space.*
Facilities are being planned to
accommodate the art department
until the college enrollment ex¬
ceeds 10,000, according to Dr.
Wardle.
The proposal for the new build¬
ing has been submitted to the
Chancellor of the California State
Colleges ln Inglewood. If approv¬
ed there, It will then be review¬
ed by other state agencies.
When the scope of the building
has been determined by the Chan¬
cellor's Office, the various state
agencies and the trustees, an
architect will be appointed to pre¬
pare preliminary plans. College
representatives will work closely
with the architect.
If there are no delays, the
building could be ready for oc¬
cupancy   sometime   during the
19G8-C
Faculties will fl

crafts and
lery and locker space will also
be added. These will be on the
first floor.
On the second floor will be an
art history lecture hall, a grad¬
uate studio, two or three class¬
rooms and offices.
At some time after college en¬
rollment reaches 10,000, further
construction will provide facili¬
ties for other types of art In¬
struction.
Until this second phase Is com¬
pleted, the art department will
continue to occupy Its present
space ln the Art-Home Eco¬
nomics Building as well as the
new facilities east of Maple.

the fifteenth worst disaster ln
world air history. The disaster
touched off a vast but vain flare-

Voltaire, the French philoso¬

disagreed with what a man said,
he would defend to his death the
man's right to say It.
That was the basis of a vote
by the Fresno State College
Faculty Council yesterday on a
resolution by the Association of
California State College Profes¬
sors which seeks the ouster of
the Chancellor of the California
State Colleges, Glen S. Dumke.
Phillip N. Walker, an associ¬

•The executive committee,"
Walker said, <has acted In an
Irresponsible manner and has not
substantiated their charges.'
Dr. Harold J. Beatty, profes¬
sor of physical education, and op¬
ponent of the resolution said the
executive committee represented
seven men speaking for 170 mem-
Beatty added that It would be
just as 'wrong* for the council
to pass on the resolution because
they (the council) represent the
sentiment of the whole faculty.
The amended measure, which
carefully spelled out that the
councU neither endorsed nor sup¬
ported the ACSCP, was passed
with one nay vote.

Dr. Bernard Shepard, profes¬
sor of Journalism, added that he
was disgusted with the lengthy
form a professor had to complete
when a student received a grade
of •Incomplete."
Dr. William B. Uphold, pro¬
fessor of phUosophy, however,
disagreed on the Issue of book¬
lets, and said he felt the new
system gave a chance for the ad¬
visors to meet personally with
their advisees.
•1 feel,' Dr. Uphold said, 'that
a lack of communication between
faculty and students was one of the
key factors In the recent riots
at Berkeley.'
It was decided that the entire

ferred to an appropriate adminis¬

be found.
