The march is sponsored by the

was organized at the beginning
of the Assembly session this year
for the express purpose of getting a civil rights bill passed.
So far, the Legislature has been
slow In acting on the bill. James

Svara said, however, that the

organization
should not wait for the Federal Government to act because
the national bill only covers Interstate commerce. The Kentucky
bill covers all Intrastate matters.
"Kentucky knows Its own problems and what Is needed to resolve them," Svara said.
The Civil Rights Bill now before the assembly was drawn up
by the State Human Relations
Commission. It Is a bill modeled
after ones passed by several other states.

Advisory
Council to interpret policies in
order to maintain those standards
of behavior and actions necessary
for the welfare of the enrolled
women.
The Senate functions in an executive, legislative, and programming capacity. Its 16 members
serve for one year and, with the
exception of the two freshman
senators, are elected in the spring
semester. Freshman representatives are elected in the fall.

Need For Engineers Declines;
Defense Cuts Cited As Cause
By CARL MODECKI
Kernel Campus Editor
There has been a 35 percent decline in the demand

lor engineers and oilier skilled
technicians since 10, according to the Wall Street
Join n. il.
The decline has caused many
engineers to return to school to
obtain either a masters degree
or a doctorate in order to protect
their present Job.
The decline is based on reports
by Deutsch and Shea's monthly
"demand Index" which is based
on the volume of
advertising in technical Journals

� Faculty Adjustment
To New Semester
Have the members of the faculty
adjusted to the new University calendar instigated last fall?
Toward the end of the fall semester it seemed that professors and instructors had not covered the average
amount of material for one semester.
n order to compensate, they skimmed
two or three chapters in an hour, assigned term papers the last two weeks
of the semester, and assigned outside
leading the last week of classes.
This load of work before finals

was the result of the slow pace set by

the faculty at the beginning of the
semester. In a large number of classes
the first examination wasn't given until midterm week and the final hour
test came right before finals.
Students, knowing the pressure
they would be under without a vacation to write term papers and catch
up on their reading, made a valiant
attempt to complete their work before
the end of the abbreviated semester.
"cramming" by professors
made this an almost impossible task.
However, this semester the story
seems to be a little different at least
if the first half is any indication. It

that more professors and instructors are thinking ahead to the
end of the spring term. 1 hey have
increased the amount of material covered at the beginning of the semester,
thus eliminating the rush to cover
necessary material toward the end of
the term. Term papers were assigned

"The Secret Of rower"
(From Jewish Literature)

The waters were rising until they
almost reached the Throne of Glory.
Thereupon the Almighty Cod cried
out: "Be still, O waters!"
Then the waters became vain and
boasted: "We are the mightiest of all
let us flood the earth!"
creation

...

At this God grew angry and rebuked the waters." Do not boast of
your strength ye vain braggarts! I
will send upon you the sands and they
will raise up a barrier against you!"
When the waters saw the sand and
of what tiny grains it consisted they
began to mock: "How can such tiny
grains as you stand up against us? Our
smallest wave will sweep over you!"
When the grains of sand heard
this they were frightened. But their
leader comforted them; "Do not fear,
brothers! True enough, we are tiny
and every one of us by himself is insignificant. The wind can carry us to
all ends of the earth, but, if we all
only remain united, then the waters

will see what kind of power we have!"
When the little grains of sanVv
heard these words of comfort thcy'
came flying from all corners of the
earth and lay down one on top of the
other and against each other upon the
shores of the seas. They rose up in
mounds, in hills, and in mountains,
and formed a huge barrier against the
waters. And when the waters saw how
the great army of the grains of sand
stood united they became frightened
and retreated.

So, too, regarding man and his
progress toward a more peaceful
world. Should he stand alone, he
stands limited. Should he unite with
those of equal concern for a meaningful life, he draws immeasurable
strength from that union and can
serve the cause of peace in a far more
constructive fashion. This, perhaps,
is one of the prime functions of ethically-oriented

religious

groups.

America's Foremost Critic Of Education

Conant Advocates Abolition Of NCATE
By STEVE BOOKSIIESTER

Collegiate Press Service
'
Chicago Bureau
CHICAGO The
critic
of the educational status quo in
America asked recently for the abolition of the organization that now accredits this nation's teacher training
program.
Dr. James B. Conant, educator, author, and President Emeritus of Har-ar- d
University, asked for an end to
the controversial National Council for
Accreditation of Teacher Education
(NCATE).
Speaking at the IGth annual meeting of the American Association of
Colleges for Teacher Education
(AACTE), Conant said he would substitute for NCATE a plan of state
board accerditation based on the investigation of practice teaching
He said that NCATE staff members do not base accreditation procedures on the pieparcdness of students to teach, but on "the administrative oig.iniation of teacher education institutions."
"1 am comiuccd,"
said Conant
cif NC.VI E, "that its
accciediting
junctions should be renounced. In
ut it bluntly, I would lecommeiid to
st y faculty
group or college president
vho asked me, that the institutions
in question itltisc to lccche an
fs'CA 1 E isitin team."
Cnn.mt stated (hat he could not
accept "a commission clioicn hugely
by oig inizations associated with the
National Education Association
(NEA) , . . advised by a team made

up largely of professors of education

who visited the campus for two clays
. . ." as a valid accrediting body. "I
do not believe that the representatives
of any single discipline should have
such power in determining
who
should be certified," he said.
AACTE and its parent organization NEA hold a sieable majority of
the members of the board of NCATE.
AACTE has seven, while the NEA
has six. Total NCATE board membership is 19.
Even if the NCATE board membership were to be revised, Conant
sees no chance that the accreditation
process would "insure that the individuals prepared on a particular campus were qualified."
"I would not be willing to certify
many of the graduates of certain institutions which have received some
form of NCATE accreditation," Conant said. He stated that "though
some (NCAT
institutions)
aie excellent, others are of such a
quality (hat a state (education) department must either be uninformed
or inesponsible to recommend the
automatic certification of all their
gi actuates." Many state departments
