The College recognizes that it is necessary to maintain a viable black student community. Realizing that such a community ultimately depends on the decision of the students both to enroll and to continue their education at Swarthmore, the College ,.,il1 strive to enroll a minimum of 25 black students in each freshma n class. It is hoped that this number can be increased to 35 after a three-year period.

Sunday afternoon, Januar y 12 Repor~, The faculty continued its discussion of the SASS demands and the Admissions Policy and took the following action: 1) The following resolution was passed: The faculty urges the student . council and other organizations to be constantly aware of the need to provide support for activities which, ,.,h ile open to the entire student body, "lOuld be largely black in orientation (APC report, pg. 11, C). 2, 3, 4, and 5 were ammendments to previous actions which have already been taken account of. I 6) The faculty urged, in the form of a resolution, that the President arid the board secure fund.s to carry out the recommendations of the faculty, based all the SASS communication of 23 December and the report of the Admissions committee ; the faculty recognizes that such a course requires a reappraisal of budgetary and fund-raising priorities. 7) The faculty moved to send a delega tion to the student plenary session this evening to announce ,,,hat the faculty has done tod ay ; that class es ,,,ill beheld tomorrow at the discretion of the instructors; and that the faculty ,,,ill t;; ontinue its meetings this evening at 8:30.

While it does not anticipate c ause for disciplinar y action, it Qannot guarantee amnesty for matters on which it has no information. 8) The faculty resolves that Monday's classes be rescheduled for Wednesday, and that Tuesday's classes take place as normally sche duled. Amplification with reference to Resolution 7: With reference to resoluti o n 7, concerning amnesty: By 'presently k nown to i t , ' the faculty refers to its knowledge of SASS 'orderly occupation of the ad missions office and of the shutting off of windows and exits. The faculty is encouraged by the verbal assurances undertaken by representatives of SASS upon their first , entering , the a.dmi ssions office -- to wit, that property would not be harnie d, files would not be rifled, and people not det aine d against their will. Assuming there are no other grounds for offense, SASS has n'o cause for concern. �• S lJPPLS~ 31\TT -~--- ----. --- .. _.----_._---- --- _ - .-- ----_---__ -. _, ._ . FACULTY CO},}·!

This statem.ent Hill be presented to the faculty meetinG today. The docum~nt folloT,rs this format: 1) topic title 2) SASS -position 3) amplification. "I. Description of Decision-makigg : That a complete identifli:cation and description of the decision-making organs of the college on every level be m ade. Action taken 2l. the faculty durinv the meetinf~ of 12 ..13 January is as fol101'TS: 'The uresident and faculty >-relcome an OPportunity to provide any information they can that identifies and describes the decision-making organs of the college on every level, and 1 ,rill do so T,. T ithin a matter of days after the resUlllntion of normal colle ~ e activity.' SASS representatives accept this, 1,rith the specification that the report be complete, that it be vn-itten, and that the complete report be issued to the entire comJllUl1ity. II. Amnesty: '1e interpret the facultyt s anlPlified statement of amnesty as an acc~ptance of our orir.; inal demand for amnesty. Amplification: He '!-rere assured that SASS accepts the facu.lty's al11plified stat ement as su.fficient. !l:II. ! 31ack Admissions Officer: That there be hired an Assistant Dean of Admissions 1>-1'ho shall be Black, and 1 ,rYto shall have the other adiuinistrative duties commensurate Trrith that post, hy Sentemberl, 1969. ~{is 1)rirnary res ponsibilities shall be in the area of Black Admissions. The Black Assistant Dean of Admissions shall be responsible for the application of '31ack ac1missions policy to '11ac1( auplicants. Amplification: The Black Assistant Dean of Admissions shall be responsible for acceptinl?: and rejecting Blac1< applicants in consultation T,..Tith the rest of the Ad m.i .ssions staff, just as the , present Dean of Admissions is resDonsible for accepting and re j ectinf!' vrhite applicants in consultation T th the rest of the Adm , d issions staff. If this man is competent to teach in the area of ~ lack studies, he may do this in light of the pressinr; need; but it is preferable that he not teach. Also, t hi s is to be a full time position, not a part time position. IV. glack Dean of Students: There shall be hired a i lack Dean of Black students Hho shall serve as counselor for Baack stuc1ents while havine.; other administrative duties commensurate vlith that 'Post by I- arch 1, 1969. * It is to be understood that this counselor is not to be responsible to the other deans for providinf:; them vTith any confidential, privileged information. Amplification: SASS v.rishes this dean to be as senior in rank as Dean T1arr if at all possible so he ~,.ron't 1:lave to be a junior partner among the school's deans. They put this forth as the ideal goal; but are 1.villing to accept having the best ma.n hired at N'hatever rank his professiona.l E";x:nAr i AY1~A ill!'lt.i Ti Pl': _ �, -. TPE PHOENIX Pap.;e 2 SUPPLE¥E~~T Jan. 16 SASS does not feel this is a chan:;e of ;)()sition, but onl,y a more complete specification of the countelinp they seek. * Hired by this date; not necessarily on the .job by this date. V. Hiring of two aforementioned administrators: That the hiring of the bra aforementioned administrators shall be by Dresidential apoointment. A list of prospective candidates will be developed through the efforts of SASS, of any outside organizations it deems necessary, and of the administration. Final approval of the bra administrators shall be at the discretion of SASS. Amplification: SASS snecifies thatit envisar~es the follo'wing procedure : it i,rill produce a list of candidates j the ddrninistra tion and/or others will produce a list (ther~ shall be personal interviews of all candidates by SASS and the administration) f~here are discrepancies between the final candidates chosen by the various parties, SASS shall make the final recommendation to the President (Black people are more sensitive to the interests of Black people than 1'>1hite administrators). VI. Admissions Policy That the college strive to enroll at least 35 Black students into the freshman classes over the next three years so as to accomodate the goal of 100 Black students by 1972, and at least 40 Black students after three years so as to meet the goal of 150 Black students by 1975. Amplification: SASS understands that these figures represent goals toward the achievement of which the college ~rill make a consistent and sustained effort. VII. Transfer Students: It is understood that we accept the resolution to encourage the enrollment of Black transfers 't-rith scholarships. VIII. Ad Hoc Black Admissions Committee (AIIDAC) accept the resolution ,nth additions: that the committee for Black admis9 sions be charged 1r-rith: 1) the proposal of Black admissions policies, i.e., procedures and qualification criteria. This committee vrill also be charged with recommending the number of Black a nplicants to be enrolled. under such policies. HOvTever, these numbers have already been determined for the next six years. 2) A reviey.r of the application of these policies by the college admissions staff and consideration of any problems resulting from such application. 3) The review of Black Ac1..missions Policy in the future if the Crrmn.ittee sees fit. 4) The pm,Ter to elect a chairrnan, form the committee and to increas e its functions in making proposals pertaining to Black admisiions (e.g., pre-enrollmmnt programs) as it sees fit. 5) To prepare reports as it sees fit. That the structure of said committee consist of the follovdng: 4 Black stUdents, 1 white stUdent, 3 faculty members, one of whom shall be Black, 2 administrators, one Black when he arrives. Further specifications: 1) illn the event that H Legesse decides not to be a member of this committee, he r. shall be ~aplaced by an outside consultant chosen by SASS in consultation with the faculty, or by a fifth Black student. 2) Until the Black administrator arrives, one of the two remaining faculty members ~ve �/. THE PHOENIX SUPPLEMENT Page J Jan. 16 shall be chosen by the faculty in consultation ~nth SASS. J)In the event that there bemore than one Black faculty member from which to choose, the Black faculty representative, this shall be done in consultation with SASS. These members shall be chosen by their respective groups in accordance with the faculty resolution. That final approval or disapproval of said committee's policies are to rest with SASS. Amnlification: This is understood to mean that SASS shall exercise final judgment ov~r the policies of the committee and that in this area the legislative function of the faculty is performed by SASS. By 1.:ray of explaining their position, SASS members said: 'This is not minority coercion, but rather Black self-determination.' They ask that SASS have the final say only in areas pertaining to the special interests of ~lack people, since the Black perspective is the most relevant perspective in these areas. OUr position implies that SASS sball encourage and respect perspectives and opinions from fanulty, administrators, and students before reaching a final decision. Thus, it will be insured that SASS will not reach decisions vJhich fail to take into account all the perspect"lbes of the college community. Finally, SASS understands this to be a standing, not an ad hoc, committee. IX. Support programs (pre- and post- matriculation) It is understood that these reiolutions which deal specifically '!.-nth pre-matriculation and support programs are acceptable as appropriate for investigation by the Black Admissions Committee. Amplification: Htth regard to pre-registratioM' enrichment or reinforcement programs, SASS feels that the Black Admissions Committee 1,rill study the types of programs available, determine the types of programs that are suitable, find out whether they exist on other campuses; and, if not, '!.-ril1 determine how to set them up. At this point, the college will enter into the necessary negotiations for the implementation of said programs. SASS feels concernea about summer enrichment programs set UP with a white perspective and are therefore not responsive to the ~lack perspective; it is necessary that Black people in such programs be exposed to Black perspective on Black problems. X. Black Interest Coramittee: The faculty has made no resolutions abnut the Black interest Committee demanded. OUr position is: That the college publically recognize the existence of and encourage the ase of a Black interest committee which shall be charged "nth: 1) Obtaining a delineation of the decision-making pcocess as pertaining to cultural activities (SASS understnads this to mean processes by ;"rhich funds, time slots and what not are allocated). 2) Receiving funds and time slots for progr&~ of a cultural done in the name of the entire college community from the Cooper Foundation, Collection Committee, Ilfjusic Dept., LTC, and similar groups. J) Reviewing cultural programs at the college which pertain to Black people BEFORE they are presented, if the party making the presentation so wishes. 'Reviewing' in no '!.-Tay implies censorship. 4) Recommendin ~ actions to the SASS membership should its offer of review not be utilized. Thi~ committee shall consist of Bhck peo'P1e chosen by and responsible to SASS who shall be available for recommendations and consultation to the entire college community. Amplifica tion: SASS in this regard does not '!.-nsn to have s eparate funds for its programs, but rather lArlhshes to be entitled to receive funds from suhh organizations as the 600per Foundation and present programs under the auspices of such organizations, with tinle slots decided upon by the two parties involved. In amplification of no. JJ above, SASS hopes that it ,-rill be consulted. �/. , '" . THE PHOENIX S UPPLEJiiENT Page 4 Jan. 16 beforehand eoncerning presentations that may be offensive to the sensitivities of Black people. If its consultation is not sought and/or if its judgment is not .~ heeded. then SASS preserves the eight to protest. SASS wishes this committee, to . operate much as the Hamburg committee . but not with the censorship prerogatives , of the Hamburg Committ8e. This committee Hould have no authority to prevent a program from occurring. In asking that the college publical~ recognize the committee, SASS wants all-college notification and notification of foundations and committees that are concerned with cultural programs. This committee would not address itself to specifically departmental programs, but only to programs that have college-1<ride scope. XI. Blac!< participation in P(hlicy-making: Black people shall participate in policy-shaping and decision-making processes on all levels of the college community relating to the special interests of Black people. Amplification: Policy-shaping and decision-making is intended to refer to all stages of the process, i.e., identification of the problem or issue, committee i,rork on the ~roblem, formulation of resolutions to deal 1-rith it, acting on resm.lutions, and implementing them as solutions. By levels SASS understands both: areas of operation (e.g •• curriculum, admissions, or cultural) and hierarchical levels (e.g., students, faculty, and administration). XII. Fundine; : SASS sincerely appreciates the initiation of this resolution on the part of the faculty. However, we wish that the resolution be amended to insert the words: 'and 9 Janua~' after the words '23 December' and to change 'communication' to communications'.~ RADICAL CAUCUS Ir,EETS AGADT The radical caucus met at 4:30 and 8 p.m. and discussed what steps shuuld be taken concerning the faculty's scheduled meeting. By the end iif the meeting it had been decided to continue personal contacts 1<dth faculty members and the planned statement at the honors meeting. The group considered a vigil outside the faculty meeting and deferred until its next meeting (set for 9:]0 this morning) a decision on a statement to the faculty. Subi Sahgal read the latest SASS clarification of its position on the Ad Hoc Black Admissions Committee. The group then discussed the question of "double veto H --or IIbicamerality", under Nhich both SASS and the faculty 1 'Tould have revie"'T of the committee's decisions before they Hent to the Board of Y anagers--versus a sole SASS revie1r:r prior to final Board consideration. Discussion on the substantive merits of the two methods (the latter is the clarified position of SASS; the former represents a position mentioned by several students and faculty members recently) centered on '{.Thether it was more important to recognize the legitimacy of the faculty as above the administration to receive and reviel'T commit tee reports, or, on the other hand, T"rhether the important point was that the interested group have the final revieH. Some students mentioned t4e tactical aspects of the issue--specifically, whether the faculty could be "",ed beyond the "double veto" position, and whether SASS could, on the basis of its statements, accept anYthing less than a single pre-Board veto. Subi stated that the SASS clarification meant to SASS that the �. > . Page 5 Jan. 16 faculty's legislative function on matters of Black admissions policy would be replaced by SASS. Others questioned 'tIThether it was right or advisable for the radical caucus to suggest positions or tactics to SASS. The discussion was dropped with no decision reached. The planning of activities directed toward the Thursday faculty meeting began with mention of a possible vie:il outside the meeting. A statement had been prepared to explain the vigil. The original statement urged the faculty to accept the clarified SASS position on the A}TI3AC, and affirmed that 1-Then this l.ras done students would return immediately to academic business. It Has first agreed that there be no request for further postponement of exams--that such could be negotiated ,,,ith individual prodressors, and that, ultimately, students would have to accept the possible costs of their active participation in the events of the crisis period. Discussion then centere0. on the effect of a vigil or statement or both on the faculty's state of mind and decisions. After some discussion, the group committed the statement to a subcommittee for rewording and clarification. This morning's caucus 'tIrill pass on the wording and decide hOYT to present the stateulBnt. A discussion of the vigil ended in a 50-25 straw vote against vigil ing in the name of the radical caucus. Fembers of the caucus 1>Tere encouraged to discuss ldth faculty members the meaning and implications of t 11e clarified SASS demands, and to assure them that the acceptance of SASS demands l ..ould be seen as an act of good faith on the part of the faculty, and not as an occasion for agitation on issues of general student power by the radical caucus--which group, it 'tIms reported, has aroused concern and suspicion in some faculty members. It was mentioned that a further message to the faculty 1,Tould be presented through a dignified expression of su-pport . for SASS by at least forty students at the honors meeting at 11 a.m. The meeting adjourne0_ at 10 p,m. so that members could attend their dorm meetings. LABOR Cm~~TTEE lflORKS H OP The Swarthmore Students for a Democratic Society Labor Committee, comprlslng a membewship of 15 or so, sponsored a b"ro-hour 'tIrorkshop hTednesday afternoon to discuss the broader implications of SASS actions. The meeting centered around discussion of a letter read by Yin Berg which 1rTholeheartedly endorsed SASS' actions and included suggestions for future SASS consideration revolving around the broader issues which the current crisis has raised. The letter, 'tIThich the committee h..as sent to SASS, specifically mentioned tl.ol0 areas--the Black High Scho.ol Hovement ( a labor committee-Black Panther organized movement for 33 neTtT schools in Philadelphia ghettos and the means to finance them) and the University City Science Center (of lVhich the college is a member and T.orhich, according to SDS studies, has been responsible for the eviction of 200 Black families) as those 'tIrhich SASS in accordance 'tInth its concern for all Black Americans could address itself to. Literature on both areas is available. The labor committee emphasized that the letter 1-ras not written 1>nth the intention of intensifying the ;risis but of adding substance to the political discussions that have evolved because of the crisis. �.. .

Realizing that such a community ultimately depends on the decision of the students both to enroll and to continue their education at Swarthmore, the College ,.,il1 strive to enroll a minimum of 25 black students in each freshma n class.

Sunday afternoon, Januar y 12 Repor~, The faculty continued its discussion of the SASS demands and the Admissions Policy and took the following action: 1) The following resolution was passed: The faculty urges the student . council and other organizations to be constantly aware of the need to provide support for activities which, ,.,h ile open to the entire student body, "lOuld be largely black in orientation (APC report, pg. 11, C). 2, 3, 4, and 5 were ammendments to previous actions which have already been taken account of. I 6) The faculty urged, in the form of a resolution, that the President arid the board secure fund.s to carry out the recommendations of the faculty, based all the SASS communication of 23 December and the report of the Admissions committee ; the faculty recognizes that such a course requires a reappraisal of budgetary and fund-raising priorities. 7) The faculty moved to send a delega tion to the student plenary session this evening to announce ,,,hat the faculty has done tod ay ; that class es ,,,ill beheld tomorrow at the discretion of the instructors; and that the faculty ,,,ill t;; ontinue its meetings this evening at 8:30.

It proceeded 2) The faculty affirms the statement of the Pre sident in his letter of 31 December 1968 that "This college has never been and must never be governed by demands or moved by threats." 3) Faculty resolutions made on the basis of the SASS documen t of 23 December 1968 and the report of the Admissions Policy Commi ttee have been accepted because the faculty be lieves they are right. 4) The Pr esident announces his strong support of the a~tions taken by the f a culty, of which he is the presid ing officer, and will strongly recommend them to the board of managers.

This statem.ent Hill be presented to the faculty meetinG today. The docum~nt folloT,rs this format: 1) topic title 2) SASS -position 3) amplification. "I. Description of Decision-makigg : That a complete identifli:cation and description of the decision-making organs of the college on every level be m ade. Action taken 2l. the faculty durinv the meetinf~ of 12 ..13 January is as fol101'TS: 'The uresident and faculty >-relcome an OPportunity to provide any information they can that identifies and describes the decision-making organs of the college on every level, and 1 ,rill do so T,. T ithin a matter of days after the resUlllntion of normal colle ~ e activity.' SASS representatives accept this, 1,rith the specification that the report be complete, that it be vn-itten, and that the complete report be issued to the entire comJllUl1ity. II. Amnesty: '1e interpret the facultyt s anlPlified statement of amnesty as an acc~ptance of our orir.; inal demand for amnesty. Amplification: He '!-rere assured that SASS accepts the facu.lty's al11plified stat ement as su.fficient. !l:II. ! 31ack Admissions Officer: That there be hired an Assistant Dean of Admissions 1>-1'ho shall be Black, and 1 ,rYto shall have the other adiuinistrative duties commensurate Trrith that post, hy Sentemberl, 1969. ~{is 1)rirnary res ponsibilities shall be in the area of Black Admissions. The Black Assistant Dean of Admissions shall be responsible for the application of '31ack ac1missions policy to '11ac1( auplicants. Amplification: The Black Assistant Dean of Admissions shall be responsible for acceptinl?: and rejecting Blac1< applicants in consultation T,..Tith the rest of the Ad m.i .ssions staff, just as the , present Dean of Admissions is resDonsible for accepting and re j ectinf!' vrhite applicants in consultation T th the rest of the Adm , d issions staff. If this man is competent to teach in the area of ~ lack studies, he may do this in light of the pressinr; need; but it is preferable that he not teach. Also, t hi s is to be a full time position, not a part time position. IV. glack Dean of Students: There shall be hired a i lack Dean of Black students Hho shall serve as counselor for Baack stuc1ents while havine.; other administrative duties commensurate vlith that 'Post by I- arch 1, 1969. * It is to be understood that this counselor is not to be responsible to the other deans for providinf:; them vTith any confidential, privileged information. Amplification: SASS v.rishes this dean to be as senior in rank as Dean T1arr if at all possible so he ~,.ron't 1:lave to be a junior partner among the school's deans. They put this forth as the ideal goal; but are 1.villing to accept having the best ma.n hired at N'hatever rank his professiona.l E";x:nAr i AY1~A ill!'lt.i Ti Pl': _ �, -. TPE PHOENIX Pap.;e 2 SUPPLE¥E~~T Jan. 16 SASS does not feel this is a chan:;e of ;)()sition, but onl,y a more complete specification of the countelinp they seek. * Hired by this date; not necessarily on the .job by this date. V. Hiring of two aforementioned administrators: That the hiring of the bra aforementioned administrators shall be by Dresidential apoointment. A list of prospective candidates will be developed through the efforts of SASS, of any outside organizations it deems necessary, and of the administration. Final approval of the bra administrators shall be at the discretion of SASS. Amplification: SASS snecifies thatit envisar~es the follo'wing procedure : it i,rill produce a list of candidates j the ddrninistra tion and/or others will produce a list (ther~ shall be personal interviews of all candidates by SASS and the administration) f~here are discrepancies between the final candidates chosen by the various parties, SASS shall make the final recommendation to the President (Black people are more sensitive to the interests of Black people than 1'>1hite administrators). VI. Admissions Policy That the college strive to enroll at least 35 Black students into the freshman classes over the next three years so as to accomodate the goal of 100 Black students by 1972, and at least 40 Black students after three years so as to meet the goal of 150 Black students by 1975. Amplification: SASS understands that these figures represent goals toward the achievement of which the college ~rill make a consistent and sustained effort. VII. Transfer Students: It is understood that we accept the resolution to encourage the enrollment of Black transfers 't-rith scholarships. VIII. Ad Hoc Black Admissions Committee (AIIDAC) accept the resolution ,nth additions: that the committee for Black admis9 sions be charged 1r-rith: 1) the proposal of Black admissions policies, i.e., procedures and qualification criteria. This committee vrill also be charged with recommending the number of Black a nplicants to be enrolled. under such policies. HOvTever, these numbers have already been determined for the next six years. 2) A reviey.r of the application of these policies by the college admissions staff and consideration of any problems resulting from such application. 3) The review of Black Ac1..missions Policy in the future if the Crrmn.ittee sees fit. 4) The pm,Ter to elect a chairrnan, form the committee and to increas e its functions in making proposals pertaining to Black admisiions (e.g., pre-enrollmmnt programs) as it sees fit. 5) To prepare reports as it sees fit. That the structure of said committee consist of the follovdng: 4 Black stUdents, 1 white stUdent, 3 faculty members, one of whom shall be Black, 2 administrators, one Black when he arrives. Further specifications: 1) illn the event that H Legesse decides not to be a member of this committee, he r. shall be ~aplaced by an outside consultant chosen by SASS in consultation with the faculty, or by a fifth Black student. 2) Until the Black administrator arrives, one of the two remaining faculty members ~ve �/. THE PHOENIX SUPPLEMENT Page J Jan. 16 shall be chosen by the faculty in consultation ~nth SASS. J)In the event that there bemore than one Black faculty member from which to choose, the Black faculty representative, this shall be done in consultation with SASS. These members shall be chosen by their respective groups in accordance with the faculty resolution. That final approval or disapproval of said committee's policies are to rest with SASS. Amnlification: This is understood to mean that SASS shall exercise final judgment ov~r the policies of the committee and that in this area the legislative function of the faculty is performed by SASS. By 1.:ray of explaining their position, SASS members said: 'This is not minority coercion, but rather Black self-determination.' They ask that SASS have the final say only in areas pertaining to the special interests of ~lack people, since the Black perspective is the most relevant perspective in these areas. OUr position implies that SASS sball encourage and respect perspectives and opinions from fanulty, administrators, and students before reaching a final decision. Thus, it will be insured that SASS will not reach decisions vJhich fail to take into account all the perspect"lbes of the college community. Finally, SASS understands this to be a standing, not an ad hoc, committee. IX. Support programs (pre- and post- matriculation) It is understood that these reiolutions which deal specifically '!.-nth pre-matriculation and support programs are acceptable as appropriate for investigation by the Black Admissions Committee. Amplification: Htth regard to pre-registratioM' enrichment or reinforcement programs, SASS feels that the Black Admissions Committee 1,rill study the types of programs available, determine the types of programs that are suitable, find out whether they exist on other campuses; and, if not, '!.-ril1 determine how to set them up. At this point, the college will enter into the necessary negotiations for the implementation of said programs. SASS feels concernea about summer enrichment programs set UP with a white perspective and are therefore not responsive to the ~lack perspective; it is necessary that Black people in such programs be exposed to Black perspective on Black problems. X. Black Interest Coramittee: The faculty has made no resolutions abnut the Black interest Committee demanded. OUr position is: That the college publically recognize the existence of and encourage the ase of a Black interest committee which shall be charged "nth: 1) Obtaining a delineation of the decision-making pcocess as pertaining to cultural activities (SASS understnads this to mean processes by ;"rhich funds, time slots and what not are allocated). 2) Receiving funds and time slots for progr&~ of a cultural done in the name of the entire college community from the Cooper Foundation, Collection Committee, Ilfjusic Dept., LTC, and similar groups. J) Reviewing cultural programs at the college which pertain to Black people BEFORE they are presented, if the party making the presentation so wishes. 'Reviewing' in no '!.-Tay implies censorship. 4) Recommendin ~ actions to the SASS membership should its offer of review not be utilized. Thi~ committee shall consist of Bhck peo'P1e chosen by and responsible to SASS who shall be available for recommendations and consultation to the entire college community. Amplifica tion: SASS in this regard does not '!.-nsn to have s eparate funds for its programs, but rather lArlhshes to be entitled to receive funds from suhh organizations as the 600per Foundation and present programs under the auspices of such organizations, with tinle slots decided upon by the two parties involved. In amplification of no. JJ above, SASS hopes that it ,-rill be consulted. �/. , '" . THE PHOENIX S UPPLEJiiENT Page 4 Jan. 16 beforehand eoncerning presentations that may be offensive to the sensitivities of Black people. If its consultation is not sought and/or if its judgment is not .~ heeded. then SASS preserves the eight to protest. SASS wishes this committee, to . operate much as the Hamburg committee . but not with the censorship prerogatives , of the Hamburg Committ8e. This committee Hould have no authority to prevent a program from occurring. In asking that the college publical~ recognize the committee, SASS wants all-college notification and notification of foundations and committees that are concerned with cultural programs. This committee would not address itself to specifically departmental programs, but only to programs that have college-1<ride scope. XI. Blac!< participation in P(hlicy-making: Black people shall participate in policy-shaping and decision-making processes on all levels of the college community relating to the special interests of Black people. Amplification: Policy-shaping and decision-making is intended to refer to all stages of the process, i.e., identification of the problem or issue, committee i,rork on the ~roblem, formulation of resolutions to deal 1-rith it, acting on resm.lutions, and implementing them as solutions. By levels SASS understands both: areas of operation (e.g •• curriculum, admissions, or cultural) and hierarchical levels (e.g., students, faculty, and administration). XII. Fundine; : SASS sincerely appreciates the initiation of this resolution on the part of the faculty. However, we wish that the resolution be amended to insert the words: 'and 9 Janua~' after the words '23 December' and to change 'communication' to communications'.~ RADICAL CAUCUS Ir,EETS AGADT The radical caucus met at 4:30 and 8 p.m. and discussed what steps shuuld be taken concerning the faculty's scheduled meeting. By the end iif the meeting it had been decided to continue personal contacts 1<dth faculty members and the planned statement at the honors meeting. The group considered a vigil outside the faculty meeting and deferred until its next meeting (set for 9:]0 this morning) a decision on a statement to the faculty. Subi Sahgal read the latest SASS clarification of its position on the Ad Hoc Black Admissions Committee. The group then discussed the question of "double veto H --or IIbicamerality", under Nhich both SASS and the faculty 1 'Tould have revie"'T of the committee's decisions before they Hent to the Board of Y anagers--versus a sole SASS revie1r:r prior to final Board consideration. Discussion on the substantive merits of the two methods (the latter is the clarified position of SASS; the former represents a position mentioned by several students and faculty members recently) centered on '{.Thether it was more important to recognize the legitimacy of the faculty as above the administration to receive and reviel'T commit tee reports, or, on the other hand, T"rhether the important point was that the interested group have the final revieH. Some students mentioned t4e tactical aspects of the issue--specifically, whether the faculty could be "",ed beyond the "double veto" position, and whether SASS could, on the basis of its statements, accept anYthing less than a single pre-Board veto. Subi stated that the SASS clarification meant to SASS that the �. > . Page 5 Jan. 16 faculty's legislative function on matters of Black admissions policy would be replaced by SASS. Others questioned 'tIThether it was right or advisable for the radical caucus to suggest positions or tactics to SASS. The discussion was dropped with no decision reached. The planning of activities directed toward the Thursday faculty meeting began with mention of a possible vie:il outside the meeting. A statement had been prepared to explain the vigil. The original statement urged the faculty to accept the clarified SASS position on the A}TI3AC, and affirmed that 1-Then this l.ras done students would return immediately to academic business. It Has first agreed that there be no request for further postponement of exams--that such could be negotiated ,,,ith individual prodressors, and that, ultimately, students would have to accept the possible costs of their active participation in the events of the crisis period. Discussion then centere0. on the effect of a vigil or statement or both on the faculty's state of mind and decisions. After some discussion, the group committed the statement to a subcommittee for rewording and clarification. This morning's caucus 'tIrill pass on the wording and decide hOYT to present the stateulBnt. A discussion of the vigil ended in a 50-25 straw vote against vigil ing in the name of the radical caucus. Fembers of the caucus 1>Tere encouraged to discuss ldth faculty members the meaning and implications of t 11e clarified SASS demands, and to assure them that the acceptance of SASS demands l ..ould be seen as an act of good faith on the part of the faculty, and not as an occasion for agitation on issues of general student power by the radical caucus--which group, it 'tIms reported, has aroused concern and suspicion in some faculty members. It was mentioned that a further message to the faculty 1,Tould be presented through a dignified expression of su-pport . for SASS by at least forty students at the honors meeting at 11 a.m. The meeting adjourne0_ at 10 p,m. so that members could attend their dorm meetings. LABOR Cm~~TTEE lflORKS H OP The Swarthmore Students for a Democratic Society Labor Committee, comprlslng a membewship of 15 or so, sponsored a b"ro-hour 'tIrorkshop hTednesday afternoon to discuss the broader implications of SASS actions. The meeting centered around discussion of a letter read by Yin Berg which 1rTholeheartedly endorsed SASS' actions and included suggestions for future SASS consideration revolving around the broader issues which the current crisis has raised. The letter, 'tIThich the committee h..as sent to SASS, specifically mentioned tl.ol0 areas--the Black High Scho.ol Hovement ( a labor committee-Black Panther organized movement for 33 neTtT schools in Philadelphia ghettos and the means to finance them) and the University City Science Center (of lVhich the college is a member and T.orhich, according to SDS studies, has been responsible for the eviction of 200 Black families) as those 'tIrhich SASS in accordance 'tInth its concern for all Black Americans could address itself to. Literature on both areas is available. The labor committee emphasized that the letter 1-ras not written 1>nth the intention of intensifying the ;risis but of adding substance to the political discussions that have evolved because of the crisis. �.. .
