If you haven't been involved with our und.et; graduate brothers recently, you've been missJJI! c a lot. h

Granted, you've been missing some exaspe~ ating and frustrating experiences ... but eve· Y a dog needs a few fleas to keep it really hapPY· I

Granted, you've had more time for the b 0 ~. a tube and the 19th hole ... but the dullest, 111~;1 bored guys I know go directly from work to. r a golf course to the TV set, meanwhile grumbhV: t about "the younger generation."

IKIM JEPSON, NATIONAL PRESIDENT PI KAPPA PHI FRATERNITY

Hell's fires! They haven't the slightest at quaintance with the younger generation! On the other hand, it has been my priVl'!em " and pleasure to meet hundreds of brothers wlJ are actively involved with undergraduate c?s~ ters and men. You couldn't ask for a more stll1\ l lating, alive group of men. They are living.1n< they are acquainted with today's world and so-called younger generation.

Let me tell you about a few of them-with ~~ names or places, because I can't name the:rn 811 ancl since I love them all, names would imP · favorites. In the North Central states, we have a brot~~: that has been a college professor, an execut111 of a large corporation, and is now in retirerneV, Still he loves his fraternity to the point that~~~ is active in recruiting, money raising, and f , alumni chapter. He may be the possessor o i' 50 year award, but you couldn't tell it frorn )1 · activity. He's living today!

And in the deep South, there's a quiet, llv; assuming Mr. Pi Kappa Phi who's loved bY i', whole state. His health is no longer tops, but~~; interest is still deep and active. Believe me, p· many Pi Kapps he has helped, both morally, ~ nancially and with counsel (many of them !l~t important in their own right) still confer VV1 him. Look to the Northeast.

HIS is the fourth in a continuing series of T dialogues by undergraduate members of the

fraternity. A wide range of subjects will be discussed in coming issues: dope, religion, morality, conformity, sex. The undergraduate Pi Kapps participating in these dialogues were selected at random and represent chapters on campuses large and small throughout the country. What they have to say on these topics should, therefore, reflect the thinking of many of today's college fraternity men. Some things our undergraduates say may please you. Other comments may shock you; but you're likely to learn more about what this generation has in mind for its country and its fraternity. Your comments are welcome. Reader response to this and other undergraduate dialogues will be featured in a future issue of The StarÂˇ and Lamp.

Topic: Relevance of Fraternity I. What is r elevant in an individual's r elationship to a frat ernity? BiH Walker: ... it is the good that belonging to a group does for him. His growth socially, spiritually, and intellectually is fostered by this envir onment. I suppose that the term "lasting friendship" might describe the atmosphere that I am alluding to. Joseph R. Cimini: Obviously Bill is correct ... but we all know as fraternity men that the Fraternity does more. It produces leadership and the important capacity to cooperate with others. Certainly, these two characteristics are exceedingly relevant to all our Jives. J. Wayne Crosby: I think the attitude which forms the basis for the fraternity relationship is the most relevant factor. Our fraternity as a whole must realize that it has a role which is meaningful and significant, not only in the total aspect of the university, but even more important, in the lives of the individuals who form the brotherhood. The individual must have the opportunity to learn the lessons that a group situation such as the fraternity can offer, but at the same time, the fraternity must not stifle individual growth by forcing conformity.

is These men are Pi Kapps and theY a::lfllChL left: Bill Walker (Epsilon), Joe SchUIÂŁr rtla Epsilon), Wayne Crosby (Chi), John (DP-XII), Dale De Waard (8-Xi).

HA knowledge of human ~~/, e~ with the experience of soc11Â°1'ti, sponsibility is the most re tionship to a fraternity.''

Fred Hoskins: To me, the most relevant part of the group situation which Wayne has referred to can he summed up in one word-Brotherhood -a close association which can only result from living, working, and playing together over a period of four years. This knowledge of human understanding and compassion, coupled with the experience of social, moral, educational and financial responsibility is, to me, the most relevant portion of the individual's relationship to a fraternity. 6

II. What is relevant in a fr路aternity m embe1路's relationship to a college? Joe Schultz: The good colleges strive to provide a stimulating atmosphere which will encourage the students to seek greater knowledge. In addition to the regular class work, such extracurricular activities as concerts and visiting lectures are provided to expose the student to different ideas. The opportunity for greater exposure to such different ideas is a responsibility of the college. The fraternity man as a student has the responsibility to the college of accepting the challenges presented and of acting the role of the mature student. John Enslen: ... when one is in a fraternity, he finds his college becoming more than an institution of learning. He will find that the combined relationship of college-fraternity can help him to more readily open the many doors to the future . Chuck Davis: Obviously, doors are opened because this special college-fraternity relationship calls a fraternity man to leadership. It is no accident that the majority of student offices and positions of leadership are found in the hands of fraternity men. Our fraternity system provides the greater opportunity for members of the system to become leaders. The non-fraternity environment does not offer this same intense opportunity. J. Wayne Crosby: I agree with Chuck. Rather than seeing himself as separate and apart from the campus by virtue of his fraternity membership, the individual member is and should be an integral part of the entire community. It is the fraternity man's duty to express an academic concern and to exhibit character and leadership in all phases of campus life. I Cissues Wh" heY ar /l'rl huck D .'ch con cern yo u.

III. What is relevant between campus morality and the way a man conducts himself? Joseph R. Cimini: All fraternities of which I have a knowledge include moral training as part of their pledge programs-and rightly so. In this way a fraternity man is more conscious of his own morality. A fraternity man must realize that his actions reflect upon his fraternity as a whole and therefore must watch his step. Fred Hoskins: I basically concur with Joseph. All too often, moral misconduct on the part of a fraternity man reflects badly upon the entire fraternity and college, rather than only on the individual. We live in a world where associations with others, and public image (especially in colleges) are all-important facts. However, immorality can never be justified on the basis that others are immoral. Fraternity members have an added responsibility in morality .. . Our behavior ... reflects on all those we associate with. 7

RELEVANCE OF FRATERNITY Joe Schultz: Everyone has the right to establish his own standards of conduct within reasonable boundaries . . . often students feel their rights are being violated by various rules or laws on the legal age and drinking ... Quite possibly these laws need revision, but they are there and should be obeyed. Bill Walker: My thoughts are similar to Joe's in that each man must decide for himself what his moral standards will be, and he must do his best to live by them or be less than a man ... The ideals and goals of Pi Kappa Phi in my opinion point out the acceptance of a high level of morality while letting the individual actually choose for himself his own specific code from within this framework. Jack Casper: ... Youth is caught up in many paradoxical situations. Because of these situations, 'it is difficult for an individual to really define moral barriers. For example, sexual exploration can be conducted by two six-year-olds, and to many parents this is only "cute"; but let the same situation occur when the same two people are twenty and an entirely different outlook is taken by the parents . . . free expression of hate can be consummated on any street corner in the U. S., and this is acceptable, while expressions of love and its eventual fulfillment is deterred.

IV. What is relevant between pledging a fraternity and not pledging a fraternity? Dale De Waard: . . . Leadership abilities are encouraged and helped by pledging a fraternity. Few non-fraternity groups offer this same opportunity, as sheer competition becomes an obstacle to serving in a position of leadership. Joe Schultz: An individual goes to college to get an education and should want to get a thorough one. The best way of doing this is by pledging a fraternity, because it exposes him to many different ideas, situations and people that he would not have had the opportunity to see if he failed to pledge. Joseph Cimini: ... The pledge learns to budget his time and to organize his thoughts and work. He knows that his brothers will be there to help him if and when he needs help. J. Wayne Crosby: In deciding to pledge a fraternity, a man must bring to it an attitude that will enable him to give and receive in the most beneficial way. With this attitude in hand, he can learn from some of the totally unique opportunities that the fraternity has to offer. It is these opportunities which mak!'l the difference between pledging and not pledging. 8

V. What is r elevant in a college education o.J/ provides for success following graduation路

Jack Casper: The ability to deal with people ~ the key to success. The fraternity part of one; college education provides ample opportunitY 1 deal with people from all walks of life. 1 Chuck Davis: Jack is right. Perhaps the J1l05; important part of college is learning to get al 0~ with other people. Learning to sell yourself ll~ just plain learning to sell can many times , more valuable than being able to earn all "P.'Si Fred Hoskins: As an alumnus and an educato(: it has become apparent to me that there are se r eral qualities in a college education which sP~. success following graduation. One is the accu~f lation of knowledge within a given field of stu tr Second is the ability to apply oneself intelligen~. to problems which have never before been 1 countered. However, most important to mY '~8i1 of thinking, is the ability to understand peoP~1 and to work harmoniously with others. WitltO . this last factor, knowledge becomes worthle~ This is where fraternity experience can \V d mean the difference between initial succesS failure. Bill Walker: The fraternity experience cs; mean the difference between success or failll;t as Brother Hoskins has said. This fact is so r cause a college education in itself does not inS~P' success upon graduation. It simply provides t tools for success and a sort of warning as .; what he should expect. Everything he meets : college is relevant to this end. Every single ~i路 perience matures the student and broadens , perspective, a very important aspect of succeS:

VI. What is relevant to the undergraduate, i anything?

'jl b John Enslen: Being a member of a frateri11P; e is relevant. The social life, the brotherhood, t t ~0 experiences, and even the wisdom of the alufll& are all important and relevant to an undergrlld ate. ~ llu Joe Schultz: Everything is relevant to the 0, ha dergraduate. Politics, religion, social patterJI路 at and an endless list of others. . Dale De Waard: An individual's attitude ; !))1 most relevant to the undergraduate. Thro~t co his attitude towards his education, his frate~Jl1 ~ ''E his college, or rather his life, his future wtl 1 stJ determined. Bill Walker: Everything ! This is his tinte ~ Stt growing up. fo 1 J. Wayne Crosby: For many of today's und~ in graduates, little is relevant except the pleas~rr 1 of the moment. To others, however, their col~~ experience is one of true involvement, searcll18. \Vc for a meaningful conception of themselves ~ tw entities, and of themselves in relation to tll ,路 PI' fellows. It is this search which I feel is J1l 0' he.l relevant to the student.

Hundreds of Openings Those are only a few of the more than 500 accredited colleges that say they still have room for freshmen. More are listed in the accompanying chart. At many of these colleges there are only a very few openings at this time, and those will be gone soon. At other places-especially state co~颅 leges, state universities and large urban umversities-there's plenty of room. On the whole, openings are more likely to be available to students willing to live off campus and to those willing to travel a long distance from home. Good news for C students. Almost 500 colleges say they are willing to consider students with C (or average) high school grades. Some want the C student to have good test scores to balance his grades. Others look for special tal~nts. "We are interested in the average student with more than average motivation," says Juniata in Huntingdon, Pa. "Out-of-state C students," says the University of Missouri at Kansas City, "must rank in upper half of class." Here are a few of the many that will consider C students, some with specific conditions: . Indiana Institute of Technology; Umon (Ky.) ; Emerson (Mass.) ; Culver-Stockton (Mo.) ; Saint Louis U. (Mo.) ; Alfred (N. Y.) ; San Franci~co State; U. of Oregon; U. of Redlands (Cal.) ; Lmcoln (Pa.); Stetson (Fla.); Whitworth (Wash) ; Marshall (W. Va.); Southwestern at Memphis; Muhlenberg (Pa.). Lots of room for transfers. Over 550 colleges have room for sophomore or junior transfers. And about 450 say they're especially glad to take graduates of two-year colleges. These colleges can take some transfers, though they have no space for freshmen: 10

Pi Kappa Phi's Playwright AccordinO" to the members of the Washington Theatre sc;ne the most successful playwright in their midst' is Bruce Harrison (Omicron) of Lanett, Alabama. Writing in his spare time, Bruce has penned eight or nine one-act plays, three longer dramas, and a musical comedy since turning to drama in 1960. Prior to this time, his early attempts at writing were largely fiction efforts, which date back to early college days at the University of Alabama in 1953-54. After graduating from the School of Journalism, Bruce worked for newspapers in Talladega, Alabama, and Columbus, Georgia. In 1957, Bruce went to Washington to serve on the staff of former Representative Kenneth A. Roberts of Alabama. It was during the succeeding four years with Rep. Roberts that Bruce learned the workings of Capitol Hill, which were to enable him to later write his first successful musical comedy, "The Day the Senate Fell in Love." This comedy was performed during Catholic University's annual spring comedy festival while the author was a graduate student of speech and drama. Other theatrical successes by Brother Bruce Harrison include such prize winners as "Behind the Paper Faces," which won top honors and $500 in a contest sponsored by the National Foundation of the Arts and Humanities, "Eleven Thousand Pieces of Jade," "Concession," and "If We Had a Prince." A delightful children's musical "The Chuckledust Caper," had Lynda Bird J ohn'son and her friend, Wanie Lynn Smith, clapping and enjoying the events of the play as much as the 200 children in the audience with them. Bruce does most of his writing during the week-ends at a typewriter tucked away in the basement of the Harrisons' home. He has been known to begin writing at 8:30 p.m. on a Friday and still be at it at dawn Saturday. 13

This success story is empty if we do not relate it to our future. You see, our many successful yesterdays and todays have relevancy only in that they shape our many futures. The year 1967-68 may well prove to be the best year Pi Kappa Phi has ever enjoyed. Big and little have been the accomplishments-all promising even more in the future. These promises of the future are the subjec't of this report. Undergraduates are finding a more meaningful fraternity experience-as expressed by a general strengthening of the average chapter. In 1959-60, the average chapter was pledging 16 students and initiating 11 young men. This current year found 25 pledges and 19 initiations in the average chapter. This record is but slightly below the average of all national fraternities. Until Pi Kappa Phi exceeds this national average, we can but point to our year's experience only as a sign of progress. New methods of communication have been developed by the National Office to include posters and a modernized telephone service. All chapters have received a visit from a member of the National Office staff. In turn the undergraduates are now expressing themselves through THE STAR AND LAMP with the new feature-"Undergraduate Dialogue." A new concept of undergraduate involvement has occurred in the new "Council of Archons," a representative group of chapter archons who serve as a sounding board for the Execut ive Secretary. Old and new ideas are explored by these archons, both individually and collectively with their chapter members, with eval!lations and recommendations then directed to the National Office. Chapters have increased their commitments to community service, campus participation, and interfraternity activities. More chapters are attending religious exercises as a group. Pledge Education has replaced pledge Training. (Humans are educated-you train an animal.) Hell Week with its accompanying hazing remains a term in only a few reactionary chapters. Chapter publications to their alumni have improved tremendously. The past poor scholarship record of Pi Kappa Phi remains a sore spot-yet after the National Council took strong disciplinary action with fifteen chapters, we found twelve of them climbing above the all-men's average on their campus, and as a result Pi Kappa Phi rose considerably among sixty-one national fraternities in its scholarship average. Alumni activities are demanding an ever growing share of attention-and rightly so. This, our most important asset, is taking us down many roads never before traveled. The establishment of a full time staff position for a Director of Alumni Affairs was handsomely accomplished through Tom Deen. The ground work he laid in this virgin territory will bear fruit for years to come. Although Deen has found it necessary to depart this work, the job was immediately and successfully taken over by Tom Dalton. Even though there have been many new and reactivated alumni chapters added to the rolls, we have found a new and exciting approach already bearing fruit-individual involvement. More personal commitment from District Presidents and Chapter Advisors, from national officers and committee members has already resulted. Individual alumni serving as chapter advisory committee members and alumni housing corporation officers (rare is the chapter not now having both) are fast developing. Special committees have been requested by the National President, and the alumni called upon have and are performing well. A special committee to study our legacy

problem (as we grow in years more sons of Pi Kappa Phi's are entering college, and some chapters refuse to give them any extra consideration), a national headquarters committee to study future needs of a national headquarters building, and others have been created. Individuals are voluntarily beginning to ask for a part to play-bequests are being written into wills naming Pi Kappa Phi Memorial Foundation as beneficiarypromotion of local fraternities in the name of Pi Kappa Phi-visits to the National Headquarters in Charlotteparticipation in Pi Kappa Phi's insurance programcalling CYf other alumni to renew their interest and participation are being made. These and many more examples exemplify the intensified personal involvement by our "new" alumni. Finances talk and we are beginning to hear this voice in our midst. Your fraternity has grown from an operating income of $43,214.50 in 1959 to $126,894.04 in 1968; from net assets of $211,861 in 1959 to $430,392 in 1968. Annual dues from our alumni have increased from --0in 1959 to $16,422.70 in 1968. True, this is not much with which to conduct the affairs of a wonderful and dynamic Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity-yet it is improving, and must improve more. Dollars are required to do a job -and a job is being done. No financial report would be complete without giving credit to Pi Kappa Phi undergraduates. Their $15 pledge fee, $75 initiation fee, and $15 chapter assessment is making progress possible. They are showing their maturity by sharing the financial implementation of the Fraternity's needs. No generation gap here. Expansion, or better stated, growth, has been nothing less than specta cular this past year. While for 60 years of Pi Kappa Phi's existence the average year produced one new chapter, we are now growing at a deliberate and constructive pace of three new chapters per year. For the next 5-10 years the present growth pattern would indicate an average of 4 charterings per year. There are now nine colonies pledged to Pi Kappa Phi, each having given full indication of achieving charter status within the next 18 months. We are committed to a colonization at Oklahoma State University in 1969 and at both the University of Kentucky and the University of Oklahoma in 1970. A large number of locals at other institutions are also seeking colony status. The dynamics of fraternity growth are being experienced throughout the fraternity world-to a lesser or greater degree. However, nowhere is it more apparent than in Pi Kappa Phi. Housing, competative that is, has at last become obtainable. Not as immediate as needed but within reach. Net worth has grown, and as a result, the ability of the Fraternity to explore new and exciting methods of assisting chapters to secure adequate housing is greatly enhanced. The dream of a housing body national in scope has been achieved by the establishment of Pi Kappa Phi Properties, Inc. This corporation now owns four chapter houses and is preparing itself for greater contribution to this area of Pi Kappa Phi's needs. Indeed, these examples are but a few of the experiences of the year 1967-68. All areas of fraternity involvement did grow and prosper-possibly through the personal involvement of many undergraduates and graduates alike. Working together as our members are, we cannot help but take pride in this past year and look forward to an even greater future. Yes, a future that will not be like yesterday, nor will it be like today. With YOUR help it will be so very much better.

Today the University of Georgia stretches more than two miles from the famous Georgia Arch, which forms the main entrance, to the most distant classroom building. The campus covers 3500 acres. "Old South" and modern architecture are blended in 87 major buildings. Total value of lands, buildings, and equipment will soon exceed $100 million. In addition, the University is now in the midst of the largest building program in its history. Included in the multi-million program are new bu'ildings or additions for the Graduate Studies Research Center (completed), Journalism-Psychology-Classrooms (fall '68 completion), Home Economics, Education, Earth and Plant Sciences, Agricultural Economics, Law (completed), Forestry (completed), Veterinary Medicine, dormitories, married student housing, and a $3.7 million dollar Center for Biological Sciences. Since the first degree was awarded in 1804, the University has presented more than 58,850 degrees. Today there are over 15,000 students enrolled, as compared to approximately 7,000 in 1963. The ratio of men to women is 3 :2. The number of freshmen applications is expected to remain stable at approximately 2500. With several junior colleges being developed in the state, the number of transfer students is expected to increase. From a curriculum of traditional courses in Greek, Latin, and philosophy, University of Georgia has grown to 12 schools and colleges; Arts and Sciences, Law, Pharmacy, Agriculture, Forestry, Education, Graduate, Business Administration, Journalism, Home Economics, Veterinary Medicine, and Social Work. Students can work toward baccalaureate degrees in 100 major areas of study, toward Doctor of Philosophy degrees in 30 areas; Doctor of Education, and Masters Degrees in 50 areas. Through three major programs-teaching, research, service-the University of Georgia has more than fulfilled its founders' dream to provide a "full and complete seat of learning."

Columbia is a Warning ~: RlSSE

Note: RobeTt J-J essen is a young inst?·uctm· in Co lumbia Unive1·sity's Graduate School of Bwsiness and a candidate for a doctorate in the Department of Histor y. LARGER- than -life portrait of Karl Marx dominated the entrance of a classroom building; a red flag flew from its rooftop. Chains barred the doors of other buildings, and chanting mobs roamed across the campus. The scene might have been the University of Havana or Peking. It wasn't. It took place just a few express stops from Wall Street, at Columbia University, where, from April 23-30, student leftists seized and occupied five university buildings. The siege tactics which disrupted Columbia and brought its normal activities to a halt represent the latest assault by a revolutionary movement which aims to seize first the universities and then the industries of America. The rebels are members of Students for a Democratic Society ( SDS), a nationwide organization with chapters on over 250 campuses (Barron's, November 15, 1965, and March 11, 1968).

* .. ..

Originally, when SDS began as an outgrowth of the socialist League for Industrial Democracy, it repudiated communism as an authoritarian system and excluded communists from its membership. However, in 1964-65, SDS sought to broaden its power base by forming a united front with communist youth groups. Although SDS continued to describe its objectives in such murky phrases as "participatory democracy," the real tenor of its philosophy can best be seen in its intellectual heroes, Marx and Mao; in its action hero, Che Guevara; and in its slogans scrawled across the embattled Columbia campus-"Lenin won, Castro won, and we will win, too!" .SDS's hard-core membership at Columbia is fewer than 200 out of 17,800 students. But after it seized campus buildings, barred faculty and students from their offices and classrooms, and held a dean as hostage, its ranks were swelled by several hundred sympa24

thizers, including many outsiders. SDS launched its assault on Columbia after failing peacefully to attain two of its political objectives on campus: 1) The severing of Columbia's connection with the Institute for Defense Analyses, a government- sponsored consortium which performs research and analysis relating to national defense and domestic riot control. SDS complained that Columbia's affiliation was aiding America's "imperialist aggression" in Vietnam, while at home I.D.A.'s studies in riot control were designed to suppress demonstrations by antiwar groups. 2) A halt to the construction of a new gymnasium in Morningside Park, which adjoins Harlem, on land leased to Columbia by the City of New York. SDS claimed that Columbia was guilty of "institutional racism," that the university was poaching upon the territory of the adjacent Negro community, and that the separate entrance for the part of the gym set aside for use by the neighborhood children constituted "Gym Crow." In fact, the Columbia gymnasium had been warmly endorsed by over 40 Harlem community groups when it was announced eight years ago. It would occupy only two of the 30 acres in Morningside Park. Its presence would create an atmosphere of safety in an area which is now the territory of muggers and addicts. Separate entrances would be necessary because Columbia students would enter from the Heights on which the university is located, while Harlem residents would more conveniently reach the gym through the park which lies some 200 feet below. The issue is not one of bigotry but of geography. SDS spokesmen claimed, truthfully, that they had sought to arouse the Columbia community into opposing the gym and the I.D.A. links . They admit that their campaign was a failure, which they ascribe to student and faculty apathy, and to the administration's refusal to hear and to heed their policy recommendations. SDS rebels then resorted to their ultimate political weapon: the initia-

tion of physical force, believing th they had a moral right to do so b~ cause they were "acting in a go~ cause." In the past, they had reJea\ n:any trial balloons to test this tee~ mque: they had obstructed N.R.O.'I'· 0 graduation ceremonies; theY . h~. staged sit-ins in the offices of untve sity administrators; and they bad P 1~ 01 vented recruiters for business fir ; and the C.I.A. from interviewing ~ campus. In each case, the conseque~ , had been a polite rap on the knucl< ~;: a verbal reprimand devoid of sign! 1 cant penalties such as expulsion ° criminal prosecution. ~ On April 23, after trying to bi 0pcf construction at the gym site, S t demonstrators and their militant ~eoi gro a llies, members of the stud 1, Afro-American Society, returned il campus. At the urging of :ht~ leaders, they marched on Ha~rnl ~ Hall, the main classroom buildtng t Columbia College.

The only other (May 11, 1968) states: "The point of alternative open to him at that point the game was power.

One need only consider the issues of I.D.A. and the gym were fate of conservatives and liberals alike merely pretexts to justify the resort in countries which have been overto force.

Columbia strike, one thing is certain: the methods used at Columbia will be But the long-range objective of embraced by other student leftists on SDS is even more sinister. As a sym-

Campus or Battleground campuses throughout the country. Those who resort to force will justify their tactics by the same arguments advanced by the Columbia rebels and their apologists. If this national menace is to be checked, it is imperative that one know how to answer them. 1) Some rebels claim that none of their tactics involved the use of force. This was true only in the narrow sense that they did not shed blood. But force was inextricably involved in every act that they perpetrated. They held the Associate Dean as hostage against his will-that was force. They barricaded facu lty and students from their o·ffices and classrooms-that was force. They seized property which was not rightfully theirs and refused to release it until their demands were met-that was force. Each of these is punished as an act of force under the civil laws of our society. They are the crimes known as false imprisonment, criminal trespass and extortion. If these acts were perpetrated by a lone individual, their criminal character would be obvious. If a single felon had held the dean hostage, or seized the office of President Kirk, rifled his desk and copied his files, no one would have confused him with an idealistic, "committed" crusader. On an individual basis, if someone demands that you grant him wealth or power that he has not earned and which he can only obtain by threats of violence, one does not doubt for a moment that he is an extortionist. The act of a lone thug does not become legitimatized when he teams up with other hoodlums . As Ayn Rand noted in "Capitalism: the Unknown Ideal," no individual can acquire rights by joining a gang. "Rights are not a matter of numbers-and there can be no such thing, in law or in morality, as actions forbidden to an individual, but permitted to a mob."

* * *

Other rebels admit that they used force, but claim that force is justified when peaceful tactics fail. The fundamental political principle that all men must respect is that no individual or group may initiate the use of force for any purpose whatsoever. To accept SDS' alternative amounts to carte blanche for violence, and invites the complete breakdown of the rule of law. To understand the grotesque irrationality of SDS' argument, consider the following. Imagine that there were a student chapter at Columbia of the Ku Klux Klan, which was protesting the proposed use of the new gym by Negroes. They tried, through 2)

campus rallies and petitions, to arouse the students, faculty and administration to support their demands, but their peaceful tactics failed. If this group then proceeded to seize university buildings and hold members of the administration as hostages, would anyone have condoned their use of force, or have called for negotiations and compromise? The principle is the same: the initiation of force to achieve one's political objectives i s both immoral and illegal, regardless of whether the initials of the aggressors are KKK or SDS. 3) The rebels claim they were justified in using force because the administration had refused to give them a hearing on their demands for change. A university, like a well-run busine~s,

The single best answer to this argl ment is provided by Professor Leo~ ard Peikoff in his forthcoming boO "Nazism and Contemporary Americ~ the Ominous Parallels " who snY'. "The demand for amne'sty on pri~Cl ple is the demand for the abdicall~ on principle of legal authority; it : 1 a demand for the formal sanction advance of all future acts of fori and violence, for the promise that 5~: acts may be perpetrated herenf n 1 with impunity. It is a demand to , stitutionalize the appeasement ._ brute force as a principle of cl' policy in this country." 5) The rebels claim that police ref . resent v10lence, and therefore shoU·'(1 not be u sed on a college campus wh , is a citadel of reason and persuas::, Here the rebels evade the fact 1, th ey were the ones who first r esord:; to violence. They obliterate the . .. tinction between criminals who 1n;: ate th e use of force and the P 0 1~: who£e function it is to retaliate 1; · force to restore peace and to proe· the ri g hts of the victims .

* * *

6) The r ebels claim that their quf

r ei with the administration was ~u:; an internal disp ute, hence the Jlld: duction of police represents med f some interference by outside~·s. , 1 the same reasoning, one could JU: e well conclude that if workers sell factory, customers seize a sto:·~ir· tenants seize an apartment bull , 1 these, too, are internal matters 1 do not justify calling in the policed. reason there can be no such co1\ 0; as an "internal dispute" which al r someone to be victimized and vented from calling the police.

If this principle is acce 9 then every Jawbreaker will be 0~ from prosecution if he can find ell

shoultj be interested in knowing whether it is satisfying its customers. If it provides students with incompetent faculty, or poor laboratories or libraries, or supports political policies which they oppose, it is in the university's self-interest to maintain open channels of communication so that grievances can be expressed and remedial actions considered. Students who are dissatisfied with any aspect of a university's policies have a right to peacefully protest and petition, and even, in extreme situations, to boycott classes or organize a student strike. But they have no right to compel anyone to listen to their demands, nor a right to force other people to go on strike with them by prohibiting access to classes or by creating a general climate of terror to intimidate those who would oppose them. 4) The rebels claim that since force is justified when peaceful tactics fail, they should be granted full amnesty.

l. Spring of 1969 will see Pi Kappa Phi continue its tremendous expansion program by colonizing on the campus of Oklahoma State University. The choice of OSU is significant to Pi Kappa Phi for two reasons. First, it will firmly establish us once again in the state of Oklahoma. When the colony at Northwestern in Alva, Oklahoma, and the OSU colony become chapters, constructive efforts for the future re-establishment of our two dormant chapters-Phi at Tulsa University, Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Alpha Gamma at Oklahoma University, Norman, will become economically more feasible. Although this is in the future, area alumni of the Oklahoma City Alumni Association are laying the groundwork for the re-activation of Alpha Gamma. Secondly, because of the fine reputation of the fraternity system at OSU, the permission for Pi Kappa Phi to colonize is a compliment. It was my privilege to represent Pi Kappa Phi in the preliminary stages of colonization with a five day visit last spring to the OSU campus. What would normally be a grueling task developed into an enjoyable experience, as I witnessed a positive, progressive and completely harmonious interfraternity system. The Greek system at OSU began over 50 years ago in 1917 and has grown such that Pi Kappa Phi will be the 26th national fraternity on campus. The system has been tagged the best fraternity system in the NIC for years 1961-63. The organization and influence of the IFC is attested to by several of its sponsored programs, which have impact not only on the Greeks but the student body, faculty, and administration. One such program is the Scholarship Committee, which screens potential rushees for scholastic 28

A true example of the IFC's maturity and }e~ ership is displayed by its Judiciary Comnttttfll: If a fraternity or fraternity member perfor et• a breech of conduct in the local city of Stillw~tet the case goes to the Judiciary Committee ra bif than the local courts.
