Opinion Y COLLEGIAN Thun Self Control A growing number of young Americans are agitating for more stu¬ dent control of colleges and universities. The more militant among them have overstepped reasonable bounds. The first control students must seek Is self-control. Firebrands on almost every major college and university campus use every trick to arouse student opposition, resentment and even hatred for every form of academic and administrative discipline. More moderate student thinkers are also asking for greater student participation In the overall program of higher education. On every progressive campus there already exist students and fa¬ culty groups designed to provide for student Influence through orderly lege students are no longer children. They are older youth and young adults. They should be considered and treated. On most campuses enlightened administrations have always sought to do precisely that. Demands that students have a voice in hiring and dismissing pro¬ fessors; that grading as a test of progress be abandoned; that fair rules for student behavior on and near the campus be discarded; and that class attendence be optional for the individual student would be destructive to the very goals they claim to seek. Suppose a great university were to yield to militant demonstrations, strikes and sit-ins. Just suppose the student tody were granted a major role to these policy decisions. The students would have the control they seek. Who would control the controllers? Obviously only a few would speak for all students. The most aggressive and most militant students would often be chosen as spokesmen. Let such a vocal minority gain real power and chaos would be the Inevitable re¬ sult. The most progressive thing that can be done Is to caution young Americans against abandonment of decent restraint. If they continue to permit unbridled passions to Influence their privacy and their generation, they will soon face graveproblems.Notonly will they have lost respect for themselves, but they will have no foundation of moral Integrity and personal honor to draw from when they want to love, develop and Inspire their own children. —Lilclino SOUND! off!
