Description of Decision Making : SASS Position "That a complete identification and description of the decision making organs of the College on every level be l2-l~ made~' Action taken by the faculty during the meeting of January is as follmvs: "The President and faculty 'velcome an opportunity to provide any information they can that identifies and describes the decision-ma king organs of the college on every level, and will do so Hithin a matter of days after the resumption of normal college activity." SASS representatives accept t his, with the specification that the report be complete, that it be written, and that the complete report be issue d to the en tire community. II. AmnesJ:Y: Faculty Action: ( i ~ - \"3, '0",,-':) The College does not contemplate disc iplinary action for the SASS actions that are presently knmm to it. \"Jhile it does not anticipa te cause for disciplinary action, it cannot guarantee amnesty for matter s on which it has no infor ma tion. Amplificatiotl: With reference to resolution 7, concerning amnesty: By "presently known to it" the faculty refers to its knoHl edge of SASS' o~derly occupation of the Admissions Office, and of th e shutting off of windows and ex its. The facult y is encouraged by th ~l verbal assurance s und e rt a ken by r e pres e ntatives of SASS upon their first en t ering the admissions office - to wit, that property would not be harmed, files would no t be rifl e d, and pe ople not det a ine d a ga inst the ir will. are no other grou nds for offense, SASS has no cause for concern. As suming ther e �2. SASS Response "We interpret the faculty's amplified statement of amnest y as an acceptance of our original demand for amnesty." (SASS Jan. l3e,!e). Amplification: We were assured that SASS accepts the faculty's amplified statement as sufficient. LLI. Black Admissions Officer: Faculty Action: i" , On January 11 (morning) resolved to recommend the prompt establishment of AHBAc, one of the responsibilities of which is to be: " (1) to seek out" and recommend the -appointment at the earliest possible date of an admissions officer who shall be Black." SASS Position: "That there be hired an Assistant Dean of Admissions who shall be Black, and who shall have the other administrative duties commensurate with that post, by September 1, 1969. His primary responsibilities shall be in the area of Black admiss{ons. The - Black Assistant Dean of Admissions shall be responsible for the application of Black Admission s Policy to Black applicants." Amp 1 ification: If this man is competent to teach in the area of Black studies, he may do this in light of the pressirig need ; but it is preferable that he not time position, not a part time position. The Black As sistan t Dean of Admissions shall be the Admissions Officer responsible for accepting or rejecting Black applicants in consultation with the rest of the Admissions staff, just as the present Dean of Admissions accepts or rejects white applicants in consultation with the Admissions staff. IV. Black Dean of Students: Faculty Action: {\\ \''-,,\. ~ach . Also, this is to be a full (~ -\ That the College take in®ediate steps to recruit and appoint, subject to revi ew by SASS? a Black counselor available to all Black students for the purpose of providing co n fiden tial advic e and guidance. It is to be und ers tood that this counselor is not to be r es ponsibl e confid en~ia l, to the deans for providing them with any pr ivil eged informa tion. (This corresponds exactly to SASS demand d, page 2 of Dec ember 23, 1968 docume nt.) �3. SASS Position :,. "There shall be hired a Black Dean of Black students \vhe shall serve as coun." selor for Blac'k students while having other administrative duties commensurate with that post by March 1, 1969; hired by this date, not necessarily on the job by this date. It is understood that this counselor is not to be responsible r t to the other deans for providing them with any confidential, privileged information." Amplification: SASS wishes this dean to be as senior in rank as Dean Barr, if at all possible, so he won't have to bea junior partner among the school's deans. They put I f' this fort h as the ideal goal; but are willing to accept having the best man hired at whatever rank his professional experience justifies. SASS does not f t feel this is a change of position, but only a more complete specification of the counselor they seek. v. Hiring of two aforementioned administrators: ---paculty action~' The faculty took no specific action in connection with the hiring of a Black dean of students, but did specifically recommend that AHBAC shouad seek out and recommend a Black admissions officer SASS Position: "That the' hiring of the two aforementioned administrators shall be by Presidential appointment. A list of prospect~ve (see above, EE.) candidates ~ill be develDped through the , @forts of SASS, of any outside organizations it ,deems necessary, and of the administration. ~ , ,-.. Final approval of the two administratori sha ll be at the discretion of ~~' ve . T ~1! .~ . ~~ ). SASS." (SASS eve Jan. 13). Amplifica tion: SASS specifies that it envisages the followin g proc edure : it will produce a list �4. of candidates; the . administration and/or 6thers will produce a list; there shall be personal interviews of alL candidates by SASS and the administration. If there are discrepancies uetween the ·final candidates chosen by the various parties, SASS shall make the final recommendation to the President. VI. Admissions Policy: . Faculty Action: (I c ~<'-"'. ') . 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 S"18rthmore, the College will strive. to enroll a minimum of 25 Black students in each freshman class. It is hoped that this number can be increased to 35 after a three-year period. That the Cpllege vigorously extend its recruitment of the best Black secondary school graduates and continue to encourage Swarthmore Black students to assist in this process. "That the College should set as its goal the enrollment of a significant number (approximately 10) of Black students whose qualifications are outside norm adal missions criteria for the academic year 1969-70.'1 (~dopted on 10 t h, afternoon; amended on 12, aft.) SASS Position: "That th·e college strive to enroll at least 35 Black students into the freshman classes over the next three years so as to accomoda te 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." Amplifiaction: SASS understands tha t these figures represent goals tm- ard the achievement of l whic h the College will ·make a consistent and sustain ed effort. VEE. Tran s fer Students : Facuity Action: (\0_ I ~"'c, . Nv--(-"vv,\ '). It resolved that the college recruit and enc ourage the enrollment of, black students �5. from community and junior colleges, and remain open to Qlack transfer students ,. from four year colleges. Financial aid will be available to such students where appropriafe • ..;. AmplHication: Resolution 2 (above) pertains to SASS demand f, pg. 2, 23 December document. In changing the wording, the , faculty wished to distinguish between two year colleges ~\ (community colleges and junior colleges) and regular four year colleges. wished also to avoid any connotation of raiding the latter, ~vhile It simultaneously The indicating receptivity to applications from students of such sc hools. faculty also wished not to aggravate the brain drain 'from black four year colleges. Finally, the faculty wishes to point out that financial mediately available to entering students from t~vo aid has always been imals9 to year colleges, and those from four year colleges when no question of competing financially for entering students was involved. SASS psoition: "It is understood that ~ve accept the resolution to encourage the enrollmenm of Black transfers with scholarships'.' (SASS eve Jan. 13) (for more on admissions and transfer, see section on AHBAC). VIII. AHBAC (Ad Hoc Black Admissions Committee) At its meeting on Saturday morning, 11 January 1969, the faculty passed th e following motion: (This is the amended 12 Jan. version). · A) To facilitate the establishment of this committee, the faculty recommends the prompt establishment of an Ad Hoc Black Admissions Comm ittee. B) We propose that this Commit tee consist of 3 faculty menbers , 5 students, ineluding repre sen tation of SASS, 2 administrators; the representatives of each group to be chosen by that group. C) The chainna n of this committee will be chos en fro m the committee by the committee. �6.

Specifically, the committee shall also revie\v and make recommendations concerning the college's geographical pattern of recruitment of Black and other minority group students. 3) To consider and recommend changes in the membership of the standing Admissions Policy Committee. 4) To prepare reports as it sees fit. E) It is understood that this committee be free to make uS,e of outside consultants. SASS Position: (Pho enix Supp. 14 Jan. pg 9, as amended by SASS representatives at this meeting .), . "\;Te accept the resolutions with additions: that t he committee for Black admissions be charged Hith: 1) The proposal of Black admissions policies, i.e., criteria. pro~edures and qualifica tion This committee v7111 also be charged \vith recommending the number of po1ici ~ s.

Further specifications: 1) In the event that Mr. Legessee decides not to be a member of this committee, he shall be replaced by~outside f t , t a.tJ consultant chosen by SASS in consultati6n with the faculty, or a fifth Black student. 2) Until the Black administrator arrives, one of the two remaining faculty members shall be chosen by the faculty in consultation with SASS. 3) In the event that there be more than one Black faculty member from \"hom to choose the Black faculty reprenentative, this shall be done in consultation SASS. These members shall be chosen by their respective groups in accordance with the faculty resolution. That the final approval or disapproval of said committea policies are to rest with SASS. Amplification: This is und ~r stood .l , L.. with to mean that SASS shall exerc~se f!na1 judg~ent on the policies of. the committee and that in this area the legislative function of the faculty is performed by SASS. By \"ay of explaining their position SASS representatives said: this is definitely not minority coera ion, but rath e r Bl ack self--det ermina tion. They ask that SASS have the final say only in areas pertaining to the special interests of Black people, since the Black perppective is the most relevant per sp pective in these -ar eas. Our position i mplies that SASS shall encourage and res- �8. pect perspect~ves •. and ' opinions from the faculty and administration and students Thus it will be insured that SASS will not before reaching reach decisions a final solution. ~vhich fail to take into account all the prespectives of the college community. commlilttee . IX. Support Programs Faculty Action: Finally, SASS understands this to be a standing, not an Ad Hoc, (Pre- and pt{,st-matric'u lation:) :' ".A.A:/ ·'VV, \ , (rJ- ~""'" That immediate action be taken to design and implement for the academic year 196970 a support program that will be available to Black students as necessary.

It resolved that ihe College enter into negotiations with insti- 12 Jan. morn. tutions at present conducting sumnler enrichment or reinforcement programs for entering freshmen, so students accepted by Svlarthmore for the academic year 196970 who need such preparation may attend such a program. It resolved that the College endeavor to enhance opportunities for all Black . students to attend college: Black Admissions Committee a) continue to support and maintain an upward bound program. b) consider the use of its facilities during the summer for the establishment of a program similar in nature to the ABC program. c) establish a committee of interested faculty and stud ents to ex plore the possibility of establishing a one-evening-a-~vee k that it should in consultation with the Ad Hoc I I semina r program on the campus for able, socio-economically deprived 11th and/or 12th grade stud ents from local seconda ry schools. d) continued its participation in programs , ego the College Bound Corporation of Philadelphia , whose efforts are exp ended on behalf of increasing the numbe r of seconda ry school graduates in the area that go on to college. �9. e) undertake n~gotiations \"ith several private secondary_ sc hoo1s to arrange that Black students applying- to S\"arthmore for September 1969, who need further ., preparation, may attend such a school on a scholarship basis for one year prior to entering a college. SASS Position: ''It is understood that these resolutions which deal specifically with pre-mat- ricu1ation and support programs are acceptable as appropriate for investigation by the Black Admi ssions Committee." Amplification: With regard to pre-registration enrichment or reinforc ement programs, that the Black SASS feels Admissions Committee will study the types of programs available, are suitable, find out ,,,hether they exis t on determine the types of programs that other campuses; and, if not, will determine hm" to set them up.

Black Particip a tion in Faculty Position: Policy-making 12-13 Jan. . J In the actions of the faculty responding to the SMl8 cpmmunication of 23 Decemb er and to the report of the Committee on Admissions Policy, the faculty has authorized the participation of Black people in shaping policies on matters relating direc t ly to the special interests of Black students. to this principle wherever it applies. SASS Position: "Black people shall participate in policy shaping and decision making processes The faculty is determined to adhere I on all levels of the colle ge community ,relating to the sp e cial interests of Black people." Amplification Not to be part of resolution but to be read at faculty meetimg. 'Poiicy shaping and dec ision making ' is intended to refer to all stages of the process - e.g. identification of the probl em or issue, committee work on the problem, for mula tion of res6lutions to dea l with it, acting on re s olutions , and implementing them as solutions. �12. XII. Funding: Faculty position: ,"' 12 Jan af~.' The faculty' " uri~d,. . in the form of a resolution, that t he President and the Board secure funds to carry out the recommendations of the faculty, based on the SASS communication of 23 December and the repo r t of the Admissions Committee; the faculty reco gnizes that fund-raising priorities. SASS Position: SASS Sincerely appreciates the faculty's initiative on this resolution. However, s~ch a course requires a reappraisal of budgetary and SASS recommends that the resolution be amended to insert the words, "and 9 Jan." after the vlOrds 1123 Dec."; and that "Communication" be changed to "communications." By 'levels" SASS understands both areas of op e ration (eg. curriculum, admissions, or cultural) and hierarchical levels (eg. students, faculty and administration). XIII Presidential Support: The 12-13 Jan. President announces his strong support of the actions taken by the fac ulty, of ,.;hich he is the presiding officer, and will strongly recommend them to the Board of Hanagers. He is confident that the Board share s the s ane values and concerns that have motivated the Pres ident and the f aculty in their actions. The undersigned would like to point out that they rn ve understood their task to be solely that of relay ing SASS' present position, for the purpose of identifying discrepancies between it and the faculty actions of ?-13 January.

SASS representatives accept t his, with the specification that the report be complete, that it be written, and that the complete report be issue d to the en tire community. II. AmnesJ:Y: Faculty Action: ( i ~ - \"3, '0",,-':) The College does not contemplate disc iplinary action for the SASS actions that are presently knmm to it. \"Jhile it does not anticipa te cause for disciplinary action, it cannot guarantee amnesty for matter s on which it has no infor ma tion. Amplificatiotl: With reference to resolution 7, concerning amnesty: By "presently known to it" the faculty refers to its knoHl edge of SASS' o~derly occupation of the Admissions Office, and of th e shutting off of windows and ex its. The facult y is encouraged by th ~l verbal assurance s und e rt a ken by r e pres e ntatives of SASS upon their first en t ering the admissions office - to wit, that property would not be harmed, files would no t be rifl e d, and pe ople not det a ine d a ga inst the ir will. are no other grou nds for offense, SASS has no cause for concern. As suming ther e �2. SASS Response "We interpret the faculty's amplified statement of amnest y as an acceptance of our original demand for amnesty." (SASS Jan. l3e,!e). Amplification: We were assured that SASS accepts the faculty's amplified statement as sufficient. LLI. Black Admissions Officer: Faculty Action: i" , On January 11 (morning) resolved to recommend the prompt establishment of AHBAc, one of the responsibilities of which is to be: " (1) to seek out" and recommend the -appointment at the earliest possible date of an admissions officer who shall be Black." SASS Position: "That there be hired an Assistant Dean of Admissions who shall be Black, and who shall have the other administrative duties commensurate with that post, by September 1, 1969. His primary responsibilities shall be in the area of Black admiss{ons. The - Black Assistant Dean of Admissions shall be responsible for the application of Black Admission s Policy to Black applicants." Amp 1 ification: If this man is competent to teach in the area of Black studies, he may do this in light of the pressirig need ; but it is preferable that he not time position, not a part time position. The Black As sistan t Dean of Admissions shall be the Admissions Officer responsible for accepting or rejecting Black applicants in consultation with the rest of the Admissions staff, just as the present Dean of Admissions accepts or rejects white applicants in consultation with the Admissions staff. IV. Black Dean of Students: Faculty Action: {\\ \''-,,\. ~ach . Also, this is to be a full (~ -\ That the College take in®ediate steps to recruit and appoint, subject to revi ew by SASS? a Black counselor available to all Black students for the purpose of providing co n fiden tial advic e and guidance. It is to be und ers tood that this counselor is not to be r es ponsibl e confid en~ia l, to the deans for providing them with any pr ivil eged informa tion. (This corresponds exactly to SASS demand d, page 2 of Dec ember 23, 1968 docume nt.) �3. SASS Position :,. "There shall be hired a Black Dean of Black students \vhe shall serve as coun." selor for Blac'k students while having other administrative duties commensurate with that post by March 1, 1969; hired by this date, not necessarily on the job by this date. It is understood that this counselor is not to be responsible r t to the other deans for providing them with any confidential, privileged information." Amplification: SASS wishes this dean to be as senior in rank as Dean Barr, if at all possible, so he won't have to bea junior partner among the school's deans. They put I f' this fort h as the ideal goal; but are willing to accept having the best man hired at whatever rank his professional experience justifies. SASS does not f t feel this is a change of position, but only a more complete specification of the counselor they seek. v. Hiring of two aforementioned administrators: ---paculty action~' The faculty took no specific action in connection with the hiring of a Black dean of students, but did specifically recommend that AHBAC shouad seek out and recommend a Black admissions officer SASS Position: "That the' hiring of the two aforementioned administrators shall be by Presidential appointment. A list of prospect~ve (see above, EE.) candidates ~ill be develDped through the , @forts of SASS, of any outside organizations it ,deems necessary, and of the administration. ~ , ,-.. Final approval of the two administratori sha ll be at the discretion of ~~' ve . T ~1! .~ . ~~ ). SASS." (SASS eve Jan. 13). Amplifica tion: SASS specifies that it envisages the followin g proc edure : it will produce a list �4. of candidates; the . administration and/or 6thers will produce a list; there shall be personal interviews of alL candidates by SASS and the administration. If there are discrepancies uetween the ·final candidates chosen by the various parties, SASS shall make the final recommendation to the President. VI. Admissions Policy: . Faculty Action: (I c ~<'-"'. ') . 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 S"18rthmore, the College will strive. to enroll a minimum of 25 Black students in each freshman class. It is hoped that this number can be increased to 35 after a three-year period. That the Cpllege vigorously extend its recruitment of the best Black secondary school graduates and continue to encourage Swarthmore Black students to assist in this process. "That the College should set as its goal the enrollment of a significant number (approximately 10) of Black students whose qualifications are outside norm adal missions criteria for the academic year 1969-70.'1 (~dopted on 10 t h, afternoon; amended on 12, aft.) SASS Position: "That th·e college strive to enroll at least 35 Black students into the freshman classes over the next three years so as to accomoda te 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." Amplifiaction: SASS understands tha t these figures represent goals tm- ard the achievement of l whic h the College will ·make a consistent and sustain ed effort. VEE. Tran s fer Students : Facuity Action: (\0_ I ~"'c, . Nv--(-"vv,\ '). It resolved that the college recruit and enc ourage the enrollment of, black students �5. from community and junior colleges, and remain open to Qlack transfer students ,. from four year colleges. Financial aid will be available to such students where appropriafe • ..;. AmplHication: Resolution 2 (above) pertains to SASS demand f, pg. 2, 23 December document. In changing the wording, the , faculty wished to distinguish between two year colleges ~\ (community colleges and junior colleges) and regular four year colleges. wished also to avoid any connotation of raiding the latter, ~vhile It simultaneously The indicating receptivity to applications from students of such sc hools. faculty also wished not to aggravate the brain drain 'from black four year colleges. Finally, the faculty wishes to point out that financial mediately available to entering students from t~vo aid has always been imals9 to year colleges, and those from four year colleges when no question of competing financially for entering students was involved. SASS psoition: "It is understood that ~ve accept the resolution to encourage the enrollmenm of Black transfers with scholarships'.' (SASS eve Jan. 13) (for more on admissions and transfer, see section on AHBAC). VIII. AHBAC (Ad Hoc Black Admissions Committee) At its meeting on Saturday morning, 11 January 1969, the faculty passed th e following motion: (This is the amended 12 Jan. version). · A) To facilitate the establishment of this committee, the faculty recommends the prompt establishment of an Ad Hoc Black Admissions Comm ittee. B) We propose that this Commit tee consist of 3 faculty menbers , 5 students, ineluding repre sen tation of SASS, 2 administrators; the representatives of each group to be chosen by that group.

Specifically, the committee shall also revie\v and make recommendations concerning the college's geographical pattern of recruitment of Black and other minority group students. 3) To consider and recommend changes in the membership of the standing Admissions Policy Committee. 4) To prepare reports as it sees fit. E) It is understood that this committee be free to make uS,e of outside consultants. SASS Position: (Pho enix Supp. 14 Jan. pg 9, as amended by SASS representatives at this meeting .), . "\;Te accept the resolutions with additions: that t he committee for Black admissions be charged Hith: 1) The proposal of Black admissions policies, i.e., criteria. pro~edures and qualifica tion This committee v7111 also be charged \vith recommending the number of po1ici ~ s.

Further specifications: 1) In the event that Mr. Legessee decides not to be a member of this committee, he shall be replaced by~outside f t , t a.tJ consultant chosen by SASS in consultati6n with the faculty, or a fifth Black student. 2) Until the Black administrator arrives, one of the two remaining faculty members shall be chosen by the faculty in consultation with SASS. 3) In the event that there be more than one Black faculty member from \"hom to choose the Black faculty reprenentative, this shall be done in consultation SASS. These members shall be chosen by their respective groups in accordance with the faculty resolution. That the final approval or disapproval of said committea policies are to rest with SASS. Amplification: This is und ~r stood .l , L.. with to mean that SASS shall exerc~se f!na1 judg~ent on the policies of. the committee and that in this area the legislative function of the faculty is performed by SASS. By \"ay of explaining their position SASS representatives said: this is definitely not minority coera ion, but rath e r Bl ack self--det ermina tion. They ask that SASS have the final say only in areas pertaining to the special interests of Black people, since the Black perppective is the most relevant per sp pective in these -ar eas. Our position i mplies that SASS shall encourage and res- �8. pect perspect~ves •. and ' opinions from the faculty and administration and students Thus it will be insured that SASS will not before reaching reach decisions a final solution. ~vhich fail to take into account all the prespectives of the college community. commlilttee . IX. Support Programs Faculty Action: Finally, SASS understands this to be a standing, not an Ad Hoc, (Pre- and pt{,st-matric'u lation:) :' ".A.A:/ ·'VV, \ , (rJ- ~""'" That immediate action be taken to design and implement for the academic year 196970 a support program that will be available to Black students as necessary. Such a progra~ shall be designed by the Curriculum Committee in consultation with SASS. It resolved that ihe College enter into negotiations with insti- 12 Jan. morn. tutions at present conducting sumnler enrichment or reinforcement programs for entering freshmen, so students accepted by Svlarthmore for the academic year 196970 who need such preparation may attend such a program. It resolved that the College endeavor to enhance opportunities for all Black . students to attend college: Black Admissions Committee a) continue to support and maintain an upward bound program. b) consider the use of its facilities during the summer for the establishment of a program similar in nature to the ABC program. c) establish a committee of interested faculty and stud ents to ex plore the possibility of establishing a one-evening-a-~vee k that it should in consultation with the Ad Hoc I I semina r program on the campus for able, socio-economically deprived 11th and/or 12th grade stud ents from local seconda ry schools. d) continued its participation in programs , ego the College Bound Corporation of Philadelphia , whose efforts are exp ended on behalf of increasing the numbe r of seconda ry school graduates in the area that go on to college. �9. e) undertake n~gotiations \"ith several private secondary_ sc hoo1s to arrange that Black students applying- to S\"arthmore for September 1969, who need further ., preparation, may attend such a school on a scholarship basis for one year prior to entering a college. SASS Position: ''It is understood that these resolutions which deal specifically with pre-mat- ricu1ation and support programs are acceptable as appropriate for investigation by the Black Admi ssions Committee." Amplification: With regard to pre-registration enrichment or reinforc ement programs, that the Black SASS feels Admissions Committee will study the types of programs available, are suitable, find out ,,,hether they exis t on determine the types of programs that other campuses; and, if not, will determine hm" to set them up.

SASS Position: "The faculty has made no resolutions abou.!/~~~ck Interest Com mittee demanded. Our position is: that the college publicly recognize the existence of and encourage the use of a Black interest committee which sha ll be charged with: 1) obtaining a delineation of the decision- making process as pertaining to cultur al activitie s.

Black Particip a tion in Faculty Position: Policy-making 12-13 Jan. . J In the actions of the faculty responding to the SMl8 cpmmunication of 23 Decemb er and to the report of the Committee on Admissions Policy, the faculty has authorized the participation of Black people in shaping policies on matters relating direc t ly to the special interests of Black students. to this principle wherever it applies. SASS Position: "Black people shall participate in policy shaping and decision making processes The faculty is determined to adhere I on all levels of the colle ge community ,relating to the sp e cial interests of Black people." Amplification Not to be part of resolution but to be read at faculty meetimg. 'Poiicy shaping and dec ision making ' is intended to refer to all stages of the process - e.g. identification of the probl em or issue, committee work on the problem, for mula tion of res6lutions to dea l with it, acting on re s olutions , and implementing them as solutions. �12. XII. Funding: Faculty position: ,"' 12 Jan af~.' The faculty' " uri~d,. . in the form of a resolution, that t he President and the Board secure funds to carry out the recommendations of the faculty, based on the SASS communication of 23 December and the repo r t of the Admissions Committee; the faculty reco gnizes that fund-raising priorities. SASS Position: SASS Sincerely appreciates the faculty's initiative on this resolution. However, s~ch a course requires a reappraisal of budgetary and SASS recommends that the resolution be amended to insert the words, "and 9 Jan." after the vlOrds 1123 Dec."; and that "Communication" be changed to "communications." By 'levels" SASS understands both areas of op e ration (eg. curriculum, admissions, or cultural) and hierarchical levels (eg. students, faculty and administration). XIII Presidential Support: The 12-13 Jan. President announces his strong support of the actions taken by the fac ulty, of ,.;hich he is the presiding officer, and will strongly recommend them to the Board of Hanagers. He is confident that the Board share s the s ane values and concerns that have motivated the Pres ident and the f aculty in their actions.
