Conference endorses experimental classes F ive students and two faculty members from Palomar's Alpha Nu chapter of t he California Junior College Honor Soc iety attended the regional conference at San ta Monica City College on Nov. 16. Twenty junior colleges in southern California sent delegates to exchange ideas and adopt resolutions.. These resolutions will be sent to the state conference in the spring for action. The Palomar delegation was headed by chapter president, Chuck Hale. He said, "It's very inspiring to gather with students from other colleges to compare campus life and exchange ideas for future improvement. A resolution adopted by the conference was proposed by the Palomar delegation The resolution. states, "Students have a desire and need to discuss and inve stigate contemporary i ssues with other students and faculty; the refore be it resolved that Alpha Gama Sigma rec ommend to its individual chapters that Mley support the concept of experimental c lasses at the junior college level." An experimental class is one which allows the free flow of ideas and better prepares the student for t he world in which he lives, according to Hale. He said that the reason the delegation pro-
posed this r e solution was because we are very fortunate t o have an innovative facultv at P alom ar College who have c r eated just such "experime ntal c lasse s" . Some of these "expe r imental c lasses" on campus include , the English 45A, Mr. Snyder's Life Science class, and Mr. Soule's Business class. Many colleges attending the conference expressed a desire for such classes but are having difficulty getting support. AGS feels the junior college s tudent should not be required to wai t until he reaches a four year college to have fr ee flow of ideas . Other important recommendations at the confere nce, were to establish and coordinate tutoring service for s tudents who need s uch s ervice, to support a free speech poli c y and to have the s tudent body and faculty work together to promote scholorship, Delegates in a ttendance we r e Chuck Hale, Therese He id, Made lyn J ohnson, Linda Sta r a nd Ma r iechen Demchak. Also included were two faculty members, Mrs . Marilyn J. Cr i st of the foreign l anguage depar tme nt and Mr . dolph Heyne also of t he fore ign language department.
Peace and freedom's sale of San Diego Free Press approved San Diego's underground newspaper, the F ree P ress, has s urfaced at Palomar. At last Tuesday's AdministrativeCouncil meeting, a motion was adopted which allows the Peace and Freedom Club to s ell the controversial publication here. P ermission for the sale was granted following a ruling from the County Counsel that the publication and its sale on a JC campus were legal. There had been some discussion at a previous council meeting about the legality of the paper itself. F ollowing adoption of t he measure, the council announced the formation of a committee to formulate a permanent policy governing the sale and distribution of off-campus publications. This would eliminate the need for clubs to secure approval from the Administration each time they wanted to circulate something. The committee is composed of ASB President Kim Clark, Instructor William Bedford and ICC Representative, Tom Thompson. Mr. Clark said that the policy will apply equally to campus clubs and any off-campus groups who
may wish to bring forth a publication. According to Clark, there had been r athe r vigorous opposition on t he council to t he sale of t he Free P r e s s bec ause of its "new-left" bias but Clark said that passage of the me asure was never in serious danger. Before the vote , : Dr. John Schettler, Ass't ~upermte nd e nt in charge of Business, r e minded the members that the ir ersonal fee lings about the paper were not at i ssue and t hat the vote was conce rned s trictly with the legality of the sale . Sale of the F ree Pres s by the P &F c lub members began on Wednesday to mixed stud e nt reaction. Opinion seemed to be overwhelmingly i n favor of allowing the circulation but many of these who k new the paper only by r eputation expressed disappointme nt that it was so tame. One girl, mixing the San Diego paper with the Los Angeles Free Press complained, "They don't even have any of those groovy classified ads." Sale of the paper is expected. to hecome a regular activity of the c lub coinciding with the release of each bi-weekly issue.
