F.urther papers to document issues mentioned in this paper forthcoming. PART ONE ,r1 ~ re V We. as students at Swarthmore fare appi ~lled by th e lack of genuine humanistic concern at the college. W ! have seen t , ' is , lack of concern demonstrated by the rejection of the conc e pt t f cul tu,ral plurali sm The present parochial natur , ~ of prevalent concerns, cri~eria for admissions, and educationfl goals reflel ~ t an administration philosophy that we can in no w~ ' y support. We believe that the problems of racism 9.nd intellectu~ . l repression . re, in both the society as a whole an i at Swarthmore a College~ ' a ~function of the political impotence of all but a privileged few. We have two basic concerns: 1 • - The admi sst ons poli cy (the people ~vho come here) • 2.- College governance (what h. ppens to them ~ when they are here). Neither toe broadening of political power nor the admission of more minority-group students is, !2l. itself, a solution to the ultimate problem of this College's relationship to the society at large. But coupled together they provide the mUC .1 needed attention for focusing on urgent contemporary problems anc their solutions. It �PART TWO We SUppoTt the demands made public by SASS i~ the Phoenix of 3/6. The~e demands have been made necessary by the ~hite­ defined and whi te-cont,rolled nature of Swarthmore and b;) the demonstrated inability of~h e college administration to de~l with the needs of its black students through traditional gove~nance channels. The admini stration h88 further shown its cons :. stent unwillingness to consider the stud e nts' needs, as the stLdents see them, as a b a sis for making decisions (see our position papers for documentation of this contention). We, present students at Swarthmore, have witnessed the effective satisfaction of students' needs only wh e n students have stepped outside of the committeeoriented structure. By postponing and defeating change in areas that students f e el vital to th e ir e xperience at Swarthmore, and even by aiToiding meaningful consideration of such change, the administration of the college has forced both its black and white students to reject its present governance structure. The mere satisfaction of SASSos demands will not prevent future crises and student dissatisfaction, for the Simple reason that the decision-making processes that engendered this dissatisfaction in the first place would remain intact. WE INSIST THAT A COLLEGE COUNCIL WITH AT LEAST HALF STUDENT MEMBERSHIP BE ESTA:it BLISHED TO fu\VE THE FINAL RESPOnSIBILITY FOR DECISION-MAKING AT SWARTHMORE, SUBJECT ONLY TO APPROVAL BY THE BOARD OF MMJAGERS.

We reject the concept of the council recommended by the Wise report b e cause of the underrepresentation of students and the basic advisory (and ther e fore powerless) nature of the envisioned Wise council. The Col lsg e Council, we f e el, must be the final decision-making body wi thin the college, and it must have at least one half student membe rship. The specific number of members, the form of their electio n ; e tc., are open to n egotiation so long as the essential spirit of student self-determination remains intact. By student self-deterrEi }E,tion we do not mean student control or determination of issue s Lnv olving the other constitu e nts of the coll ege community. We simp ly mean that students should be members in, rather than observ e rs of, a participatory democracy. PART THREE Many stud ent n eeds are now urgently felt.

MEETING FOB COLLEGE RENEWAL ********************** ********************** Ii'lsupport of the total statement passed by the MEETING FOR COLLEGE RENEWAL we are calling for an exam strike until a clear c'omm1 tment to its principles and particulars has been made by the adJinistra tion. An exam strike functions similarly to a rent strike. Those participating in it, upon the resolution of the SASS crisis, will retuin to classes and will write all papers and prepare all exams in the usual manner. However, these papers will be withheld and these exams, though t a ken, will not be turned over for grading until such time as our de~ands have been directly and sincerely considered and a process for implementation 3xplicitly laid out. We, the undersigned, have committed ourselves already to this extreme, and will, if necessary, refuse to present midterms, finals, and all term papers this semester. We invite anyone to '" join us, and realizing the risks involved in such a course of action, we will consult personally without pressure with anyone considering such a move.

F.urther papers to document issues mentioned in this paper forthcoming. PART ONE ,r1 ~ re V We. as students at Swarthmore fare appi ~lled by th e lack of genuine humanistic concern at the college. W ! have seen t , ' is , lack of concern demonstrated by the rejection of the conc e pt t f cul tu,ral plurali sm The present parochial natur , ~ of prevalent concerns, cri~eria for admissions, and educationfl goals reflel ~ t an administration philosophy that we can in no w~ ' y support. We believe that the problems of racism 9.nd intellectu~ . l repression . re, in both the society as a whole an i at Swarthmore a College~ ' a ~function of the political impotence of all but a privileged few. We have two basic concerns: 1 • - The admi sst ons poli cy (the people ~vho come here) • 2.- College governance (what h. ppens to them ~ when they are here). Neither toe broadening of political power nor the admission of more minority-group students is, !2l. itself, a solution to the ultimate problem of this College's relationship to the society at large. But coupled together they provide the mUC .1 needed attention for focusing on urgent contemporary problems anc their solutions. It �PART TWO We SUppoTt the demands made public by SASS i~ the Phoenix of 3/6. The~e demands have been made necessary by the ~hite­ defined and whi te-cont,rolled nature of Swarthmore and b;) the demonstrated inability of~h e college administration to de~l with the needs of its black students through traditional gove~nance channels. The admini stration h88 further shown its cons :. stent unwillingness to consider the stud e nts' needs, as the stLdents see them, as a b a sis for making decisions (see our position papers for documentation of this contention). We, present students at Swarthmore, have witnessed the effective satisfaction of students' needs only wh e n students have stepped outside of the committeeoriented structure. By postponing and defeating change in areas that students f e el vital to th e ir e xperience at Swarthmore, and even by aiToiding meaningful consideration of such change, the administration of the college has forced both its black and white students to reject its present governance structure.
