January 3, 1969 To our fellow faculty members: The following memorandum is offered in the hope of contributing to a constructive response to the SASS ultimatum, though SASS's demands are presented in terms that are incompatible with acceptable procedures . The F~~emptory ~tyle of the SASS proposals should not obsc.ure either the real merits of some of them or the necessity of giYing careful and thoughtful cons~_deration to the important issues of College policy which they rais~. It is regrettable that the SASS leaders have acted (while the College is on vacation) as though the President of Swarthmore College is in a position--or would be willing--to make these decisions by himself. It is also regrettable that SASS has resorted to vilification and even to threaWas the means of gaining its ends; and that SASS has made no effort to call its concerns directly to the attention of the whole faculty, vuthout whose strong support its proposals could not be adopted and carried through successfully. Nevertheless, the faculty should be prepared to consider them salmly and objectively, having regard both to the deep and deeply-felt needs that have prompted them and to the values embodied in the educational :L deals and achievement s of Swarthmore College. It is important to bear in mind that the SASS statement comes at a time when the two reports--on black admissions and on black studies--are ready for submission to the faculty, and also that sympathy for action on these matt err is virtually unanimous. The SASS statement can serve a useful purpose in br~g­ ing home to us the urgency of the special problems that black students have in obtaining an opportunity to prepare adequately for college study, and in maintaining their sense of selfhood within largely white environments while living and working at ' college. But we should not be tempted to set aside rational and democratic methods in our concern to reach a solution of these problems. We have good ways of dealing with our problems, through study, discussion amop~ students, faculty members, and administrative officers; and recommendations to the Board of Managers. The current crisis has not ari'sen out of faculty indifference to students' needs and interests, or administrative aloofness and refusal to communicate with students or student groups. The best way of mSElting it--and of making futUre crises as healthy and constructive as possible-is to continue to adhere to democratic and rational methods. Monroe C. Beardsley Nark A.
