A Vigorous Voice for Minorities

Prof. Madeleine M. Joullie raises some pointed questionsregarding the University's commitment to affirmative action

Thechairperson of the University's

Council on Equal Opportunity, an ad-visory group that reports to the presidentand the provost, said this week that theAdministration, by its "secretiveness,"had impeded the work of her committee onthe matter of affirmative action.She was referring to the University's

unwillingness to disclose details of itsnegotiations with U. S. Labor Dept. offi-cials regarding the audit, begun in Janu-ary, of Penn's equal opportunity program.The University is currently making somechanges in that plan.According to Dr. Madeleine M. Joullie,

a professor of organic chemistry who hasheaded the equal opportunity panel sinceits inception in 1976, "If we had had ac-cess to this new affirmative action pro-gram that is being developed we couldhave made recommendations in thoseareas. We need to see, for example,whether there are grievance proceduresfor everyone. But universities tend to bevery secretive."

Opportunity, holds an elevator door forDr. Madeleine Joullie, chairperson of theCouncil on Equal Opportunity. Both have

worked closely on affirmative action issues."We used to run together," says Robinson,talking of the pair's fondness for joggingaround campus. But lately Dr. Joullie has

The Cults Come to CampusBy Rabbi Michael A. MonsonDirector, Hillel Foundation

"What's all the fuss about anyway-noone has ever bothered me-and further-more, what's so wrong about them-can't Idecide for myself what is goodfor me andwhat's not?""What's wrong with you and that

university-can'tyou protect my childfromthese cults? IfHillel did its job or the uni-versity threw these people out, my childwould not have become a 'moonie.'

Both ofthe quotes are actual statementsshared with me over a period of two years.Juxtaposed, they pinpoint the tensionscreated by the so-called cult groups thatfunction in our midst. That they exist andthat they are perceived as a threat is nonews. Furthermore, in many instances theuniversity setting is a prime target area forrecruitment.What we do not know is the extent of

the problem in terms of the proliferation ofsuch groups, the scope of their activity,and the degree to which people arejoiningup. There simply are no verifiable statis-tics. The secret is that the closed nature ofthe groups makes such data impossible toobtain. What we often hear is an embel-lishment of individual situations garnishedwith some sensationalist reporting, fren-zied reaction from affected families, andthe visible presence of exotic or abbera-Almana c

tive behavior on street corners, airports,or at mass gatherings.

What, however, distinguishes the Unifi-cation Church of Sun Myung Moon, orHare Krishna, or Children of God, from anacceptable religious commitment? Onestudent once asked, "Why are Hillel, theC.A., and Newman kosher and the othersare not?" The terminology might raiseeyebrows among my colleagues in thecampus ministry, but the point is welltaken.Perhaps the most important aspect is

that of free entry and exit and the full dis-closure of the philosophy, activities, re-sources, and goals of the group. Surelyeach of the established historical traditionsseeks devotees and works to strengthen

their commitment. There exists as wellwithin certain sectors of Christianity mis-sionary movements which are particularlydistasteful to the Jewish community. How-ever, the particular theological traditionsare open to scrutiny, criticism, and freemovement.A major concern has been the resources

of each group, their acquisition anddistribution-and here is where secrecyand deception become most intense. Therecords of the normative Jewish andChristian charities are an open book. Wecan readily observe their methods of col-lection and their avenues of distribution.Although religion is supposed to be abovethe physical and fiscal concerns, goodworks and miizvot cost money-lots of it.Certainly the established traditions havecome under criticism for their find-raisingemphasis, but the community is wellserved by their efforts.

I have yet to see a disclosure by any ofthe cult groups of distribution of funds.We do know that the personal wealth ofGuru Maharaj Ji and the land holdings ofSun Myung Moon are excessive, to saythe least. At the same time, the masses ofdevotees lead austere lives, often at thepoverty level, while they turn over theirreceipts from candy sales and householdjobs to the church. The structure of eachgroup is pyramidal, and the chiefs are fewwhile the braves proliferate. Secretknowledge and privilege is accorded to a

closed inner circle who have access to themaster.Why? What makes an intelligent, per-

ceptive, often skeptical student suddenlytake off emotionally, spiritually, and phys-ically with one of these groups?My experience as a rabbi on a campus

has convinced me that the most difficulttask that challenges an individual is thenecessity of decision making. Quite oftenthe vulnerable individual has been raisedby doting parents who overprotect andshield their child from the decisions he/shehas to make. When this same person ar-rives at the university the opposite is true,and he/she is often ill prepared to makethese decisions. The cult group assumesthat responsibility and removes the bur-den. The sacrifice of individuality may notbe that great if you can be relieved of theburdens of career choice, academic suc-cess, and competition, jockeying for socialposition, anomie, alienation, and thebroad category of "making it" in today'sworld.Each of the cult groups allows the de-

votee to escape the "real world," casthis/her lot with the spiritual community,and allow the so-called divine master tocall the shots. Less risk, less loss. Believeit or not (no pun intended), the pain ofreality hurts more than the loss of indi-viduality.We live in a period that is perceived as a

difficult one morally, spiritually, aesthet-ically, and, most important, economically.Historically, false messiahs proliferatewhen the going gets rough. We live in atime when answers are expected to allquestions. If computers can produce dataat great speed, and appliances can makemy life so much easier: (1) why can't reli-gion answer my problems as it is supposedto be doing? (2) why is it so painful to reada newspaper and see such a bleak prog-nosis for the future? (3) why is everythingso bad when it is supposed to be so good?(4) why can't I get into graduate school orget a job?

I have used terms like traditional, nor-mative, established, and historical to de-scribe Judaism and Christianity. How-ever, the lines between the groups are notalways so finely drawn. Certainly themechanisms, the techniques, and often theclaims are confused. None of us is thatsophisticated or dispassionate to be able to

A Unique Tribute to Margaret Mead

University Museum hosts a photo exhibit honoring the late anthropologist

In halting pidgin English, a 65-year-oldNew Guinea villager talked of his reactionto news of Margaret Mead's death."Me cry, me cry," he said. "One week

me cry."John Kilepak-known as -JK- in the

works of the well-known anthropologist-was speaking of last week's opening of"Margaret Mead in New Guinea: 1928-1975," a photographic tribute currentlyshowing at the University Museum. Theexhibition will not be shown anywhereelse in America.When Mead first visited the village of

Pere on the island of Manus for six monthsin 1928, she described -JK- at age 14 asthe most gifted of his age group and the

most loved." He served as her head houseboy along with five other teenage helpers.

Fifty years later, when he first heardradio reports of her death, he didn't be-lieve them because he didn't think shecould die.

But when the reports were confirmed,the villagers began mourning for Mead theway they traditionally mourn for greatchiefs.Out of the mourning came an idea:

-JK- and the villagers took up a collec-tion of their currency (kinas) and strung ittogether. Convinced that Mead's soul wasin New York where she died, -JK- madeknown his wishes that the gift be broughtto New York where it would be near her.

Arrangements were made by two of

Patricia Grinager, a U. of Wisconsinanthropologist, worked with Mead and iswriting a book about her.

Mead's colleagues, Fred (a formerSmithKline executive) and Barbara Roll,to bring -JK- to the United States.The first phase of his pilgrimage was

completed when his gift was given to theAmerican Museum of Natural Historyin New York.gins the second phase.

Because the giving of presents plays animportant role in Pere culture, the Rollswanted to give something to the villagersin exchange for the ring of kine. So theychose to complete the Margaret MeadCommunity Center in Pere that had beenleft unfinished due to lack of funds.The center, now nearly completed, will

be dedicated on Jan. I.Because the facility will only be an

empty shell until funds are collected tofurnish it, the Rolls also included the pho-tographic exhibition, which will be placedin the center at its dedication.The photographs depict Mead's first trip

to the island at a time when inter-tribalwarfare had ceased, before the villagerscould read or write, and before the mis-sions reached them.When she returned in 1953 she found a

village that had endured dramatic andrapid cultural and political changes as aresult of the use of the island by the U.S.Army during World War H.

Fascinated by the evolution taking placeon the island, Mead returned five times.When Mead left the island in 1975-

where this photographic chronicleconcludes-she had every intention of re-turning after her seventh trip there. Shetold the villagers as she prepared to leave:

"You ask me if I will come back again?You beat the death tattoo for me in 1928when I left, but I came back in 1953-andin 1964, and in 1965, and in 1967, and in1971."I am old like an old tortoise, but maybe

I'll come back again. Who knows?"Mead was preparing her eighth visit

when she died.-Sue Kinard

The Administration's closed-mouth po-sition on its new affirmative action pro-gram, charged Dr. Joullie, is not in keep-ing with the its cooperation on other re-lated matters. "The whole atmospherehere has changed in recent years." shesaid. "The Administration is more sensi-tive to equal opportunity issues. Most de-cent people see that equal opportunity ishere to stay. Besides, it's good business,good management."

Dr. Joullie, who acknowledged duringan interview that she was not always poli-tic, also raised questions about the Admin-istration's resolve in implementing the af-firmative action recommendations madeby the Task Force on Black Presence inMarch of 1978. "The top managementmust be committed to black presence,"said Dr. Joullie. "We [the Council] feel

Energy TipsEasing the crunch

The Energy Office of Operational Ser-vices brings to the community's attention thefollowing:

Dust/vacuum radiator surfaces fre-quently: dust and grime impede the flow ofheat.

Keep curtains and shades open in sunnywindows: close them at night. They canreduce heat gain through windows on thesun side of the house by as much as 50percent.

Do not boil water inan open pan as waterwill come to a boil slower; it uses less energyin a kettle or covered pan.

Defrost manual-defrost refrigerators/freezers regularly. Frost buildup increasesthe amount of energy needed to keep theengine running: never allow frost to build upmore than one-quarter of an inch.

Use one large bulb instead of severalsmall ones in areas where bright light isneeded.

Never let a faucet drip; onedropasecondcan waste 700 gallons of water a year.

Prepare small meals in electric skillets.grills, crock pots, etc., ratherthan heating anentire oven.

One 40 watt fluorescent tube providesmore light than three 60 watt incandescentbulbs, saving money and energy.

Placing a sheet ofaluminum foil betweenthe wall and the radiator reflects heat backinto the house and will help eliminate wintercondensation problems.

If the basement walls are damp (but notleaking water), brushing interior cement orplastic sealer directly onto the walls willreduce the moisture problem significantly.

Portable heaters can be the most eco-nomical way to fill limited needs for extraheat.

When buying a car, the best fueleconomy is associated with low vehicleweight, small engines, manual transmission,low axle ratio, and low frontal area.

Check the air pressure in your tires atleast once a month. Underinflated tires putan extra dragon theengine requiring it to usemore gasoline.

" Sexual activity between graduate stu-dents in psychology and their facultymembers has become a fairly commonpractice, according to three California re-searchers who have looked into the mat-ter. According to the researchers, a quar-ter of all women who received theirPh.D.'s in psychology in the last six yearshave engaged in such activity. By com-parison, male students have had less sex-ual contact with their female professors -although, again, psychology majors at thePh.D. level have been more prone, as itwere, to this kind of behavior." The University of Minnesota has beenfined $4,300 in civil penalties by the Nu-clear Regulatory Commission for 14 viola-tions of the NRC's regulations for the

handling of radioactive materials. Theuniversity will not contest the fine." Four state colleges in Pennsylvania havenotified 89 tenured faculty members thattheirjobs will end in Septemer of 1980 dueto declining enrollments and an effort bythe Commonwealth to balance its highereducation budget. The four schools in-volved are East Stroudsburg, Edinboro,Mansfield, and Shippensburg State Col-leges. Edinboro, which has mounted anoperating deficit of nearly $1.5 millionover the past four years, plans to term-inate 50 faculty and eight administrativepositions. That decision was announcedby Foster F. Diebold,the newly appointedpresident there.

Accord-ing to the new rules on the matter, whichwere recently published, schools maycarry only mail ofbonafide student or fac-ulty organizations in these mail deliverysystems. According to the document, thisrule "does not cover letters of facultymembers, students, or organizations otherthan bonafide student or faculty organiza-tions of the carrying college or univer-sity."

ForTheRecord

From the Senate Chairman, Walter D.Wales:The Senate Advisory Committee, at its

meeting of September 12, recommended inthe name of the Senate that the paragraphon curriculum and degrees currently in theStatutes be changed to reflect the newstatement on admissions passed at theApril 25 meeting of the Senate. The pres-ent paragraph in the Statute is:

Each faculty, subject to such regu-lations as the Executive Board mayprescribe, shall set its own subject re-quirements for admission, regulationsfor instruction of students, and re-quirements for recommendations fordegrees in course and in faculty.

The new wording recommended by theSenate Advisory Committee is:

Subject to general policies estab-lished by the trustees of the Univer-sity, the responsibility for determin-ing the quality of the student bodythat each college or school seeks to

attract shall rest with the faculty ofthat college or school or, in the caseof undergraduate programs, with allrelevant faculties jointly. Each facultyshall articulate the criteria for selec-tion of applicants for admission andshall establish a written admissionspolicy that describes these criteria.Each faculty shall also monitor im-plementation of this admissions pol-icy and amend it when necessary.

Subject to general policies estab-lished by the trustees of the Univer-sity, each faculty shall also set its reg-ulations for instruction of studentsand requirements for recom-mendations for degrees in course andin faculty.

According to the Rules of the Senate, iftwenty members protest this action bywritten petition within two weeks of publi-cation, the action does not take effect un-less ratified at a Senate meeting or, if theSenate Advisory Committee so chooses,by referendum.

Preliminary Senate Agenda SetThe fall meeting of the Faculty Senate

has been scheduled for 3:00 p.m. on Mon-day, October 29, in Room 102 of theChemistry Building. The agenda will in-clude reports from several committees, adiscussion of the probable effects of im-plementation of new accounting guidelines(required by Circular A-21 of the Office ofManagement and Budget), and action onthe status of the clinician-educator facultyin the Medical School.The report of the Senate Committee on

the Faculty (ALMANAC, May 1, 1979) hasbeen accepted by the Senate AdvisoryCommittee. The Senate Advisory Corn-

Minorities andSAT Scores

The College Board recently announcedthat the national SAT test result averagesdeclined during the 1978-79 academic year.Specifically, the verbal average ofthe SATsdeclined by 2 points from 429 to 427 whilethe math average slipped by I point from 468to 467.

Gary M. Kelsey, director of minorityrecruitment at the University, and the PennTowne Chapter. Links Inc., a group ofprofessional black women educators, lawy-

ers, judges, doctors and business executives,continue to be concerned about how lowtesting results have a severely negativeimpact for many black and other minoritygroups by prohibiting them access to highereducation. In an effort to respond to thisconcern, the Minority Recruitment Programat the University, along with Links Inc., issponsoring "Test Taking Workshop" forroughly 125 senior and junior students fromthe Philadelphia school system on Sep-tember 22 at the University. A workshop on"Test Wiseness"-the ability to understandthe question by which level of attainment isbeing assessed and to utilize the mostefficient approach available when answeringa test-will be one of the many exercisesgiven.

Book OrdersProvost Vartan Gregorian has issued the

following statement concerning the order-ing of textbooks:

"In order to facilitate the ordering oftextbooks, it is University policy that fac-ulty members submit to the Bookstore alist of all books required or recommendedfor courses offered at the University. Be-cause at least eight weeks are needed forconsolidating such orders, I would like toask that all faculty members make everyeffort to submit their book requirementsby the due date, October 15th. If this is notpossible, a call to Barry Vitow, director ofthe bookstore, would be most ap-preciated."

there may have been a lack of commit-ment."Summing up the accomplishments of

her 31-member group during the past year,Dr. Joullie said, "We have not been allthat productive. We discussed a lot ofproblems, but there is so much more to bedone."

In particular, she pointed to the lack ofuniformity in hiring practices among thevarious schools within the University. Themedical school, she said, poses an espe-cially "thorny problem because they ap-parently have made commitments thatmay or may not comply with the equalopportunity guidelines for hiring. I don'tknow what we're going to do about this."

Other topics on the agenda of the Coun-cil on Equal Opportunity:

Improving accessways to Universitybuildings so the handicapped may enterand exit easily. The council has workeddiligently on this project in recent months.Of the University's commitment of over$1,250,000 to improve accessibility tobuildings by June 1980, better than half ofthat is going into the installation of

elevators. Buildings in which newelevators are either planned or in the pro-cess of being installed are Houston, Lo-gan, and College Halls, the Law School,and Hutchinson Gymnasium. The FurnessBuilding, according to the council, re-mains a fairly inaccessible building for thehandicapped.The establishment of guidelines to be

used by all University search committees."Some of these committees never havebeen told that times have changed," saidDr. Joullie. The committee that had beenassembled to find a new University athle-tics department director earlier in theyear, for example, did not include a singlewoman-until Dr. Joullie and her groupprotested. "Some members of thesecommittees really would rather not haveto care about affirmative action," said Dr.Joullie. "They should become more sensi-tive."The pursuit of salary equalization.

"They [the Administration] claim they'redoing it, but I haven't seen any equaliza-tion," said Dr. Joullie.The start-up of specialized in-house

training programs for University em-ployees "so they can improve their posi-tion. No one is being trained to be super-

visers. The University has everything togain by improving the quality of its staff."

Dr. Joullie, who has been with Pennsince 1949, stressed during ALMANAC'Sinterview with her this week that the pur-pose of the Council on Equal Opportunityis to cause people to look at things differ-ently. We've been a gadfly."I'm sure," she said, "that if we did

nothing, everybody would be happy. Thefaculty resent being told anything. Theyfeel they ought to be able to hirewhomever is competent. I've made a lot ofenemies in this position. For a non-tenured person to do this would be mad-ness."

But, she said, the rights of minorities[and women] must be safeguarded. TheUniversity, relying in part on advice fromthe Equal Opportunities Council, ought todraw up a timetable for the implementa-tion of its affirmative action goals, shesuggested."This has been a hard job," Dr. Joullie

said of her experience as council chair-person. "I didn't ask for it, and I don'twant it. But I feel it's my obligation. I'vefought my way through a lot of hard situa-tions, and if people don't like it, tough."

OUT OF THE CROWD IFor Herbert Nickens, M.D.,A Chance to Make Points'I never burned anything, but I was a student activist'

Dr. Herbert Nickens, 31, a new facultyassistant to the president and the provost,sat in the psychiatry emergency servicesoffice in the emergency room of the Hospi-tal of the University of Pennsylvania andreflected about emotional turmoil."We see domestic quarrels here," said

Nickens, who has served as director ofthepsychiatry emergency services at HUP forthe past year. "People come in almost lit-erally locked in combat." Other cases, hesaid, include people who are depressed, orsuicidal, or acutely psychotic."And let's face it," he added, "some

people are using the emergency room astheir local physician. They've been de-pressed for six months, and this is the daythey decide to do something about it."Of his recent faculty assistant appoint-

ment by Provost Vartan Gregorian, Nick-ens said, "the position at College Hall ispart-time. It's a personal thing. I want towork on a few things like affirmative ac-tion." He said he felt that the decline ofaffirmative action is a danger to America.

"I think there are two aspects to theproblem. The moral aspect of the raceissue is 'out of style' now; everyone talkseconomics instead. The self-interest as-pect ofthe problem is that I don't think the

Dr. Niciceni

country can survive with a significant partof the population structured out of the op-portunities."

Nickens said he got into psychiatry"because people's behavior, feelings, andmotivations control so much of what hap-pens to the world.

"I never burned anything, but I was astudent activist," Nickens said of hisundergraduate days at Harvard where hewas involved with the Association of Afri-can and Afro-American Students andserved on the editorial board of the Har-vard Journal of Negro Affairs. He alsoconducted a field survey on all of theblacks on Harvard's campus and thenwrote an extensive report on his datawhich he claimed was his "first piece offield research."

After leaving Harvard, where he re-ceived his bachelor's degree in 1969, hecame to Penn where he earned his doctorof medicine degree and a master's degreein sociology. He took his residence at YaleUniversity and at Penn.Nickens' hobbies include music-the

jazz of the 1940s and especially, popularmusic, and woodworking. He has used hiswoodworking skills to make his own furni-ture, a practice which "started out func-

tionally. A lot of the stuff in the furniturestores is no good, and they charge toomuch for it," he remarked.Nickens has traveled across the United

States three times, around WesternEurope, and to London where he holds acardiology preceptorship.

"I know it's a cliché, but I travel be-cause it's broadening," he stated. Travel-ing in Europe is "a more extreme versionthan traveling in the United States. It's away to see where you live in perspective."You see that there is no one way to

look at the race problem when you look atEngland's race problem, for example," headded. Just as there is no one way to eatdinner, or get up in the morning."

"Public Views of Doctors and Lawyers:Media, Images, and the Professions," anational invitational conference sponsoredby the Annenberg School of Communica-tions, has been scheduled for the nextmonth."Debate about the public standing of

the professions has never been sharper,"according to George Gerbner, dean of theAnnenberg School and chairman of theconference. "It becomes essential to un-derstand what factors shape and informour views."The conference, which will be held on

October 18 and 19, will focus on thedevelopment of public perceptions, howthe media portrays the professions, prob-lems ofpractice and innovation in the pro-fessions, and the validity of public opinionabout the professions.

Doctors and lawyers, government andjudicial officials, reform advocates, socialscientists, and media figures who shapepublic images will present studies and ex-change various views on the issue and willmake recommendations for action to betaken.
