THE MEGAPHONES
*Lt
Aims and Rules
One often hears tfrat such optics as requiring a
ertified slip from the ipfinjury to testify iq oge’s
illness, or having- to gfgn gitfapdan^a gjips, or the
newest policy; having "chaperons” at apy fupcfcjon.
where two or three are gathered in Southwestern’s
name, are incongrous with the “aims of Southwestern.”
According to page 6 of the newest bulletin, two of the
aiips of Spptftwpstern are, “to aid its students to achieve
emotional maturity and intelligent self direction, and
to teach respect for the woyth, dignity and rights pf
otheys.” Also “In harmony with these objectives, stu-
dents are graitfetj as mqrh freedom ip personal ajid
social conduct gs |s consistent jyjth fpe Ghristiap wpy
of life and as their readiness for self-government war-
rants.”
Southwestern Jdieq interprets '‘readiness” ap4
“Christian way of JifOr tevinf /fft*eedom“ to a rather
limited sphere. Freedom means being able to choose
wrongly too. Adam certainly wasn’t “ready” to be
tempted. , '
Forces are at work, however, tq make the a jins pf
Southwestern mean something. The honor council is
still here, there have bepn several yolunfary chapel
services his year, the liaison committee has been form-?*
ed, and required assemblies are fewer. The “chaperon-
ing rule” looks like a step backward though. If - an
organization or individual breaks a rule, he must face
the consequences. Period.
To brow beat men with “excuses from the infirm-
ary^ and attendance slips and chaperones seems an in-
efficient method of aiding -students to respect the
dignity of others, and to learn to live with freedom
Senate Listens To
Chaperone Rule
The Student Sjenate meeting of
November 30 was highlighted by a
r^ort of the meetings of the stu-
dent - life committee on November
16 and 19. Miss Ru?by revealpd that
% committee decided to enforce a
school rule which states that pri-
zations, interest groups, etc.) must
have a faculty representative pres-
ent and is under the jurisdiction of
the university. Upon reading the
report, confusion erupted on the
senate floor-snorls, sneers, giggles
and other noises filled the room.

suits of the drinking poll. Of the
462 persons polled, 72 pet. said that
they did drink and 28 pet. said they
did not drink. The senate passed a
proposal by Aderholt that the sen-
ate publish a fact sheet containing
individual essays of students as to
what should be done about revising
the present drinking rule.
Other reports indicated that cars
would provide cheaper transporta-
tion to school basketball games
than buses and that the new SUB
T.V. aerial was a success. After
Huntley Kenesson read a letter to
the senate in which Chaplain Switzer
praised the past actions of the
senate and encouraged further good
work the meeting was adjourned.

9% is mP*8 ? grppp of

Of the ftegjpn I* Asgocia^ of
College Unions. Region IX is com-
posed of member schools from Tex-
as, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana
and Mfss^ippi. ft is being help
this year on December 6, 7, and 8
in Norman Oklahoma on the cam,
PUS of the University of Oklahoma.
The theme pf this year’s conven-
tion is ’‘Tbe student Upiop LaboT
ratory for Living.” The discussion
groups will primarily be concerned
with pn overall evaluation of the
Union movement pap with discus-
sions pf what pew paths should bf1
pursued. In keeping with the tre7
mgndpps trapsifipn that higher edu-
is undergpmg, Region JX
feels that the Anpyal Convention ;
provide? an extremely good time i
tor examination of the question, “fs \
our programming fulfilling the
maximum potential within the aca-
demic community?” A second big,
and no less important, function of
the convention is to provide an op-
portunity for the various schools to
share ideas and learn what others
are doing.
The Southwestern delegation to
the Region IX Convention includes
the following people Fred Kandel-
er, Jim Bohmfalk, Jim Winn, Bill
Fair, Steve Raben, Skipper Shaw,
Cherry Knippa, Missy Gpodloe,
Lynn Robinson, Nancy Northingtort,
Marcella Wichman, Polly Bohm-
falk and Judy Thornton. The Direc-
tor of the Bishops Memorial Union,
Connie Clendenin, will accompany
the group. One member of the
Southwestern group, Steve Raben,
wifi bP 3 discussion group leader
qt the copyepfipu. Hp wijllead the
discussion on the evaluation pf
Union activities. The other mem-
bers pf the delegation will attend
the various other discussion groups
jyith the primary purpose of gain-
ing information that will bg of yse
tQ the pverail programming of Stu-
dent Union activities here at Southr
western. The SUB Directorate gain-
ed information that has been of
great value to our SUB program
at last year’s convention, and we
hope that this 1962 convention wjill
be equally as successful.

A note of future interest is the
annual all-school Christmas danee
sponsored by the SUB Directorate,
The big semi-formaj dance is sche-
duled this year for December 15th
in the Ballroom of the SUB The
music will be provided by tbe band
of Jerry Cline, a group of some
note in the Dallas - Fort Worth
area. This dance will be the larg-
est event of the Christmas season
here at Southwestern,, so you
should try by a|l means to attena
it. Since this is the week end be-
fore the Christmas holidays begin,
there should be no conflicts or ex-
cuses that will keep you from be-
ing here.
