LIVING

IN COMMUNITY

By Th e R everend Charles D. Spotts

National Chaplain

As I write thi column I am teaching a cour e in Biblical R eligion during summer school. The other day the cla. became quite excited when I asserted that one can't be a devout J ew or a Committed Christian in isolation. One can be a J ew or a Christian only in community. For an Orthodox J ew this means the Synagogue. For a Christian thi means the Church.

It i likewise true that one can' t be a re ponsible tudent in i olation. One can be a student only in community. For a student thi mean an academic community, a community of learning. One can·t lea rn in a vacuum. Even when the tudent reads alone in his room or in a reading cubicle in the library he is not alone. H e is in community with the author of what he is reading. If it is re ponsible readina that he is doing he is in constant critical dialogue with the author. I t i only when thi happens that reading become exciting and genuinely rewarding.

The clas room or the laboratory is ommunity in an even deeper en e. When the instructor i real ly communica ting, when the tudents

are rea lly listening, a ommunity of learning is created. A living dia ]oaue i taking place. A meeting of minds i achieved. An atmo ­phere of communal inquiry i created. A colloqu of mutua l discour e com s into being. None of the e experience can take place in i olation. Only in community can the mind be challenged to rea liz it potential.

The fraternit ca n a! o be a communit , of lea rning. In a en it exi t primaril not to b a club nor a o i I rganization nor a board ina h u e nor a r reat ion enter but a ommunit of ch Jar wh .

THE LAUREL The 76th Chapter of Phi Kappa Tau!

Phi Kappa Tau Installs Gamma Delta Chapter, Northern Michigan College, May 13, 1961

* * * Second National Fraternity To Enter State College as

President Angelo and Field Secretary Jenkins Conduct Ceremonies for Sigma Rho Epsilon

* * By William D . Jenkins, Administrative S f'c retar)'

The presentation of the 76th charter of Phi Kappa Tau took place on the even­ing of May 13, 1961. With the Armory of the City of Marquette, Michigan, serving as the site for the installation and dinner-dance, the Sigma Rho Epsilon Fraternity of Northern Michigan College became the Gamma Delta chapter of the na tional fraternity.

Earlier in the day, on campus in the Student Union building, 38 charter mem­bers, along with National President Harold 'E. Angelo, affixed their signatures to th~ official charter.

Attending the installation banquet in the evening were some one hundred and fifty persons, including the charter members, their ladies and many honored gue ts. At the conclusion of the dinner, Dr. Stanley Moody, chapter adviser and toastmaster for the evening, opened the program by introducing the guests of honor. Among these were C lair Hekhuis, Michigan State, director of Information Services for Northern Michigan College ; Dr. John Johansen, N ebraska W esleyan, chairman of the Social Science Department at Northern; Robert Moore, chapter adviser; Miodrag Georgevich, faculty sponsor, and Sam Tidwell, Mississippi Southern, Phi Kappa Tau alumni commissioner now associated with Michigan College of Min­ing and Technology.

Dr. Edgar L. Harden, president of Northern Michigan College, was unable to attend the ceremonies but did send an open letter that was read to the gather­ing by Clair Hekhuis. The letter, address­ed to Chapter President Eugene Golanda, read in part :

" This date marks the official genesis of the Gamma Delta chapter of

the Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity. " It is my pleasure, on this occasion, to

welcome Phi Kappa Tau to the campu of Northern Michigan College and to wish the Gamma Delta chapter succes and wholesome growth as a member of the Northern Michigan College family.

"We begin our relationship with com­mon objectives- to encourage high aca ­demic achievement, to develop individual and group responsibility and leader hip and to provide an opportunity for college men to learn how to live and communi­cate together while respec ting the dignity of others. Thi common bond hold the promise of a long and plea ant a ocia tion .

"Phi Kappa T au has a reputation for excellence, and we believe the member of the Gamma Delta cha pter will add ·ignificantly to this reputation .

" We shall look forward to the contri-

butions this fraternity is capable of mak­ing toward high achievement in all en­deavors, good fellowship, and constructive purpose in the best traditions of Phi Kap­pa Tau and Northern Michigan College."

Clair H ekhuis then reconstructed the history of the Sigma Rho Epsilon fra­ternity, pointing to the outstanding achievements of the group and their sin­cere de ire to create a strong and vital fraternal as ociation.

Field Secretary William Jenkins then discussed briefly the history of Phi Kappa Tau, correlating the founding of the local fraternity at Northern with that of the

on-Fraternity Association at Miami in 1906 which wa ultimately to become Phi Kappa Tau. He then requested that the men of the chapter stand. With this, Jenkins issued the following charge:

"Brothers, a significant moment ap­proaches. For in a moment, you will officially become members of the i6th chapter of a great national fraternity.

" In a moment you will accept rcspon­ibilities far greater than you have pre­

viou ly known. "But, those responsibilities will broaden

your interests and thinking, for in a mo­ment your chapter will assume its place within an organization that extends its int re ts and thinking from the waters of the Pacific to the waters of the Atlan­tic, from Superior to the Gulf.

"You will soon be fostering certain ideals that created our fraternity fifty-six years ago.

"A significant moment approaches­yet, significant years await us in the fu­ture. Who can say what ten years hence will bring-or twenty years, or thirty? Certainly, this night, no one can com­pletely foresee what the future will con­struct or present. Therefore, it is logical that what is effected now will largely set the tone for those years yet unknown.

"With that thought in mind, I i sue you this charge :

"See to it that each year hence witnesses a more strengthened fraternal association.

"See to it that each brother fulfills his obligation , whatever they may be, ob­ligations that have been set forth by our honored founders.

"See to it that your sons, when they experience college life, have the <;>PJ?Or­tunity to experience fraternal assoCiatiOn, whatever association they may choose.

"You have this power, use it wisely. "Strive towards betterment of the in­

dividual, the college, the community and the fraternity."

Eugene Golanda, Gamma Delta pre i­dent, then accepted the charter for the chapter and spoke to the point of the significance of his acceptance.

President Angelo followed with the major address of the evening. His re-

marks concerned the importance of the " total" betterment of the individual, fo­cusing largely on the college student of to­day. He expressed his concern about the student who is not cognizant of the role of academics in relation to college ex­periences and associations. Angelo, dean of men at the University of Colorado, provided many excellent thoughts through­out his talk and was warmly received by those in attendance.

History of Sigma Rho Epsilon

The Sigma Rho Epsilon Fraternity had its origin in the minds of ten men of Northern Michigan College who had compared their ideas on existing fra­ternities and arrived at the decision to form an entirely new group. The for­mulation that emerged incorporated the best ideas of how they thought :l. frater­nity should be organized and what would be vitally necessary to further that orga­nization. After succeeding changes in the vriginal draft of a constitution, a final product was submitted to the Student Council Constitution Committee and the Sigma Rho Epsilon fraternity was given

final formal recognition on April 1, 1957. M embership at the time of the formal recognition, a five-month period from inception, numbered 41.

The local fraternity set forth objec­tives of academic prowess, fellowship, and service to the college, communit y and self. To that end they are continuing to strive.

Field Secretary William Jenkins was the first representative of the national frater­nity to visit the Marquette campu . H i visitation initially covered four days in D ecember of 1960. From that visit and the observations he made ubsequently came the vote of the local fraternity to formally petition Phi Kappa Tau for full chapter status.

On October 10, 1960, the membership chose to look into the benefits of becom­ing part of a national fraternity. ational offices were con tacted a a result of the interest and after much consideration and debate, the Sigma Rho Ep ilon fratern it · voted to petition Phi K appa Tau on Jan­uary 9, 1961.

entire Northern Peninsula of Michigan, was founded in 1899 in M arquette on the shores of Lake Superior, approxima tely 400 miles north of Chicago.

Origina lly established by the Michigan legislature a a "normal school ," the sta te­supported coed ~:cationa l institution uc­cessively became the Northern Michigan State T eachers College, Northern Michi­gan College of :Educa tion, and most re­cently, Northern Michigan College. It is now a multi-purpose college, preparing studen ts for careers in teaching, business, cience, social service, art, music, the pro­

fess ions and the liberal arts.

Twenty acres of la nd donated by John M . Longyear and J. C. Ayer comprised the original campus. From temporary quarters serving the needs of six instruc­tors and 32 tudents in September of 1899, the college has developed into a 160 acre campus containing twenty-four build­ings. The facul ty and administra tive staff of more than 130 members now serves approximately 2,300 student . Today, Northern Michigan is one of the fastest growing colleges in the nation. The size of il campus and tudent population have more than doubled since 1956. The aca­demic program has been revised and broadened, providing educational oppor­tunities for pre-college undergraduate and gradua te student .

In the ummer of 1960, Northern e ­~abli hed it own gradua te program lead­mg to the M aster of Arts degree in various pha es of education.

The growth of the student population closely parallels the building programs. With some 2,000 students enrolled in 1959, projections for the future indicate an en­rollment of 6,000 by 1975.

Northern also has become a conference center for many statewide and regional organizations. During the year the cam­pus was the site of 98 conferences involv­ing 10,476 people, plus 84 planning meetings attended by 1,500 people.

The Marquette school and the Michi­gan College of Mining and T echnology at Houghton took a major tep toward the combination of their extension programs during the past year.

The a thletic program, growing with the academic program, has added new luster to the names of Northern Michigan Col­lege and the Upper Peninsula .

The 1959-60 basketball squad compiled a 14-5 record. The track and fi eld team undertook an expanded schedule and won six of eiah t meets, and toppled 14 existing records in the process. For the third traight year, the tenni team compiled a

THE LAUREL OF PHI KAPPA TAU

Misrepresentation of One Million

Students by NSA! NSA takes a stand in favor of supporting the sit-ins ... without a vote of member schools!

NSA resolves to uphold the japanese riots ... member schools were notified of this Executive Council decision four months after it was made!

((Whether we are right or not is irrelevant, we must speak!", a top NSA officer explains!

Our government has severed diplomatic relations with Cuba, but American youth remains on record wishing to help Cubans in their university reform movement.

The United States National Student Association (known as NSA ) passed a resolution in August saying, " . .. the ex­tent and direction of the recent univers­ity reform can not yet be ascertained ... " Nevertheless, it concluded that American students should aid the movement. This resolution has been sent around the world, presumably speaking for American student opinion, but NSA does not reflect the thoughts and sentiments of the American student!

What I s NSA?

What is NSA? The association claims 1,300,000 student members, or the total enrollment of the 350 member colleges and universities. In the name of American students, NSA for thirteen years has spok­en before United States Congressional committees and acted as a political pres­sure group in Washington, where it main­tains a permanent staff.

NSA also votes for America's youth at international student meetings. A pres­ident of a foreign union has said that in his country NSA is assumed to be voicing the opinions of American students. Now, living in this country, this foreign st~~ent realized NSA speaks only for the opmwns of the few individuals "who run NSA."

NSA, contrary to its preamble (which states "We, the students of the United

' ") . States of America. . . and the unpres-sion it attempts to achieve, does not in-

sure nor even encourage true representa­tion. NSA says it can speak for American students because member schools send dele­gates to the annual "congress." a summer convention during which resolutions a.re passed. What NSA fails to recognize is the fact that these delegates are rarely elected by member schools. They are not selected on the basis of knowledge of the subjects to be discussed, nor knowledge of how the students they represent feel on the sub­jects.

Topics covered at the congress are not geared to current i~sues on member cam-

T H E LAUREL O F PHI KAPPA TAU

puse , but to areas where NSA officers feel the campuses should be concerned. In other word , a few officers try to create interests for tudents with whose interests they are generally unfamiliar. No organi­za tion can reflect a non-existant enti­ment. Under such conditions delegate can neither refl ect nor represent student opin­IOn .

In fourteen hours, one of five com­mittees a t the 1960 congre s passed 44 resolutions. This a llows an average of about twenty minutes for debating each re olution in a committee of more than 200 delegates!

The subjects that this committee at­tempted to debate and the problems they tried to re olve are not conductive to such cursory treatment. Here are a few exam­ples, titles of resolutions passed by this committee : Cuba, Nuclear Testing, Afri­ca, Latin American Policy, South Korea­Turkey, Japan, India, Ethiopia, Hungary, Totalitarianism, Eastern European Ex­change, and World Youth Forum.

During the summer, NSA sponsors an ~ight week seminar for fifteen students, hand-picked by the ational Executive Committee of A, to study a few of these areas. Th is is recognition of the complexi­ties involved in these problems and the need for careful consideration of them. Yet, Congress deleaate are expected to pas resolutions in these areas and more in a few hours.

Facts? Or Distortions? "Background papers" are distributed

to a id delegate who are not " totally fam­iliar" with all the i sue being di cu ed. The papers a re usually writen by national

bout th Author ...

staff and executive committee members. Often, they tell on ly one side of a crucial, highly debatable issue. The" background papers" are frequently quoted in the ection of resolutions labeled a "fact."

What finally appears in thi ection of each resolution i often an opinionated di tortion tated with pretentiou cer­tainty.

For example, a resolution claiming to give " the facts" on the controversial and hotly debated Hou e Un-American Acti\'i­ties Committee states simply that the Com­mittee "violates personal right and en­dangers free expre ion."

This seems to be the pattern in NSA resolutions: high ly opinionated material quickly approved by weary delegates who come to the convention with little or no knowledge of what they will be expected to know.

" \J\Ihether we are right or not is irreve­lant, we must speak," a top SA officer explains. And so, for the sake of getting delegates to act, committee chairmen push through resolutions from the chair. They speak for motions and then preside over the vote. Because this tactic leads to a dog­matically derived decision, no book on parliamentary procedure allows it.

Students warned they must revolt! Idealism reaches a peak at NSA con­

gresses as delegate are told of the "com­mon bond among students throughout the world" and are warned the must revolt again t traditional and outmoded prac­tices, both on the national and interna­tional level.

con i ted of Negro participants in the mo~em~nt, their defending lawyer, and a white girl who volunteered as a secretary for the leaders of the movement. To add to the emotional pitch of the meeting, delegate were led in songs of the sit-in movement. That some of the delegates from southern schools walked out of the meeting was not surprising.

The moderator, an NSA officer, was the same individual who was largdy responsi­ble for NSA taking a stand in favor of supporting the sit-ins-- a stand which was taken without a vote of member schools, without notifying them of the de­cis ion before involved school read it in their community newspapers.

No minority reports . . . no minutes NSA fails to provide information re­

garding the tremendous dissents which have occurred annually at the congresses. Minority reports are not published. Min­utes of the meetings are not distributed, even to members. The "brotherhood of youth" that is spoken of so frequently in NSA sessions seems a reali ty when NSA bluntly states that all 1,300,000 members feel "yes" or "no" on politically hot issues.

The discrepancy between actual and claimed representation continues. It be­comes a glaring fact when it is realized that only thirteen of 97 resolu tions dis­cussed at the 1960 congress were voted upon by the delegates! The rest were decisions of the NEC, the National Execu­tive Committee, which consists of regional officers and national officers.

This group, with 34 voting members, has the constitutional power to decide stands and programs for the 1,300,000 members. It meets immediately after the summer congress and passes resolu tions which are on the books for a year before they can be a ltered or reversed by member schools. Almost two-thirds of all NSA resolutions, and all of the NSA programs, are the product, not of thinking on 350 college campuses, but of discussion a round the NEC table.

Non-violent protests in jOJ.pan upheld In September, 1960, the NEC passed a

resolution upholding the Japanese riots which kept a United States President from visiting the country. The con equences of the rioting, and the uspicion that it

was led by Japan s ommunists was not mentioned in th " fact" section of this re olu tion. It was called a "student demon­stration" and th NEC put NSA on record as upholding the right of thes students "to non-violently protest actions which they consid r unju. t or undemo­cratic."

It was mid-December, four months after the passage of thi resolu tion, that mem­ber schools were noti fi ed of the d cis ion. Even then , it was merely inclu ded in a codification of 140 other resolutions. With one copy of this codifi at ion bring sent to

each member school, chances that th is resolution, or any other, would be noticed and discussed are small. If member chools should object to a n NEC resolution or suggest modifications, their critici m are neither recorded or published.

Even members of the EC were un-clear as to what they passed concerning Japan. Of three contacted during the four months, one denied it was pas eel , one said he didn' t know if it had been, a nd the other said a resolu tion to that effect ' a passed, but he couldn' t recall pecific of it.

they are again sent to the NEC, and again passed as NSA opinion.

By this method a resolution to abolish compulsory membership lists for all stu­dent organizations has existed for four years without ever being voted upon by member schools. This does not stop NSA officials from presuring for the goals of such resolutions. Mandates may be in­volved, which will be carried out just a mandates from the congress. United States Congressmen will be told that this JS

what the youth of the nation desires.

A representative Organ

Through its regional structure, NSA claims the NEC is representative. How­e_ver, the r~gional votes are not propor­t~onal. For mstance, the Utah region has hve member schools and one vote on the NEC ; the New England region has 51 member schools and only two votes on the !'J"EC. NEC members rarely discuss the Issues they vote on with representatives ~rom schools in their own region. A school 1s unable, through the association to find out how its representative vote~ at the NEC ses ions.

manner. In the past, many of those who have opposed NSA, or wished to reform it, have found its leadership had too much of a stronghold to be broken with the small effort they were willing to put forth. To correct what is a serious situation within NSA, will take a knowledge and devotion equal to that of the NSA leaders. Those students who are concerned about the implications of NSA, who desire a demo­cratic form of representation and who bel iev~ that speaking with knowledge is more rmportant than emotional rantings, do not have the advantage of full time salaried leadership, as does NSA.

helping to provide homes in this great and growing Southern California through FHA really grew on me and the accomplish­ments of the fine and dedicated employees at the Los Angeles Office and its sub­offices have left m emories with me that I will never forget. Although I propose to take what is known in the Navy as a 'light strain', I will probably accept several di­rectorates in financial and development activities and a lso return to my old Jove of subdivision of recreational and high­cia s residential property on a part-time basi so that I can get back to the great open a ir and beautiful land of outhern California and enjoy all of its benefit of the outdoor life."
