LLCC FACULTY FACE DEADLOCK by John Scattergood

( S P S The Lincoln Land Community College Board of Trustees has scheduled a spec- ial meeting for Monday to act on the negotiationk with the Faculty Association, which recently joined the American Federation of Teachers (AFL CIO).

Informed sources say that if the association has not accepted the packet by some- time today (Friday) contracts will be mailed out next week to the . individual instructors with a three week deadline for signing. Those teachers that fail to break from theassocia- tion (assuming a deadlock) will be xeplaced by new fac- ulty, according to one ex- tremely reliable source.

A general faculty meeting with college president Dr. Robert Poorman had, at press time, reportedly been sched- uled for 1 p.m. today to discuss what has been called the Board of Trustees final offer. That offer was to have been given to the faculty negotiators a t press time Thursday after- noon.

The offer, according to a source, includes several additions and changes to the policy manual having to do with. health insurance, es- tablishing sabbatical leave; contact hours with students in the classroom, overload, and a salary schedule that may put LLCC among the top five paying -junior col- leges in the state.

Starting salary for in- s tdctors with a Masters deg fie, but no experience, would be between $9200-- $9,300 w.ith the rest of the salary schedule ranging up- wards from there.

One bone of contention may be a demand that the Association withdraw fmm the AFT.

THE SSU Sister School

DIM V I E W o ~ n s l n C h i w o Reflect~ons ~n G lounalced eye PARK FOREST SOUTH, 111.-

The first Illinois state senior

D m zh- university in Chicagoland will have i ts ground-breaking Saturday, June 12.

The ceremony for the per- manent facilities of new Governors State University

Man i s a joining animal. He loves to socialize with his fellow man. He even tends to reflect the thoughts, attitudes, and opinions of those with whom he socializes. Eventually he becomes what I call a "knee jerk reactionary."

Feed a "knee jerk reactionary" a statement or a s e t of circumstances or a news story. He will have a pat dismissa 1 for it. If he i s a conservative he will either say that it's "all a dirty commie plot" or "young people are going to the dogs" in some form or other. If the subject i s a liberal he will comment that i t i s good/bad for the environment, "it is good to see the federal government taking a hand in ..........," or "if we were only out of Viet Nam this never would have happened."

People become "knee jerk reactionaries" in much the same way that Robert Morse became a "company man" in the Broadway play "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." They do i t because i t i s easier than think- ing original thoughts. Thejr say things that have become catch phrases and are easy to remember. Things that can be applies to almost any situation.

This i s an offshoot of transferring causes. Movements come and go. But, the people remain much the same. Many of the early participants in the civil rights cause are now affiliated with either the Anti-war or ~ ~ o l o g y movements or both. They are organized and looking Ior something to do. So they join an up and coming cause. They then pick up the dogma and phraseology of that cause. Be i t Nader- isms or Birchisms, a knee jerk reactiona~y will spout his particular phrases to stimuli as siirely a s your knee jerks when the doctor whacks i t with his little rubber tomahawk.

For an exercise in frustration try to pin down a knee jerk reactionary to what he really believes. You might, if you are lucky, get two or three comprehensible original statements in the course of a two hour discussion. All of the rest i s usually spent by the knee jerk reactionary in reference to the publications, speeches, philosophy, and dogmatic statements of his particular cause. In addition, if you, in the course of trying to discover what the knee jerker really believes, happen not to agree, instantly, with what the knee jerker espouses then you are just 180 degrees out of step with the world and opposed to what i s "right."

One of the easiest ways to spot a knee jerk reactionary i s by his intolerance of any views but those he has adopted. By his inability to tolerate having questions raised about his cause will you know him. But, take heart if you don't spot a knee jerk reactionary right off you can find several at any political or social change meeting. Or you can look right next door. Or check out your grandparents.

will be a t 11 a.m. in Park Forest South. President William E. Engbretson invited the public to attend.

The permanent site i s 753 acres in Will County, bordered on the West by Governors hlghway and the Illinois Central railroad, on the North by Stuenkel road, on the East by Crawford road, and on the South by Dralle road.

Governors State University will open August 30 for about 500 full-time-equivalent stu- dents in temporary facilities for the 1971-72 academic year. More than 1,000 students have applied for admission. _ Undergraduate. students con- stitute two-thirds and grad- uate students one-third of those applying.

House Speaker W. Robert Blair said a t the earlier ground-breaking for the temporary campus that ". .... Governors State University will be highly beneficial to the people of Will and South Cook County, a s well a s those in neighboring counties.

"This area has one of the greatest potentials for deve- lopment in the northeastern Illinois area. A project such as Governors State will be a great selling point to en- courage other development in the area."

The leased temporary cam- pus will cover approximately 100,000 square feet of building om about 11 acres of lane one mile north on Monee, parking space .and access roads from Governor's highway and 1-57.

The mini-campus will be a ''pilot plant" for permanent facilities. The mini-campus, an open space shell designed primarily for i ts ultimate use as an industrial building, will perform an experimental func- tion by testing classroom and office materials and thecni- ques.

The LITTORAL

DOWNEY-From Page 1 students \k&e released fifteen minutes after the raid, accord- ing to Busch, but ABC included the films. on its evening nationally broadcasted news- cast nearly eleven hours later.

Ogilvie reminded the stu- dents that he had declared that no cameras be allowed on future raids. The Governor indicated that he would like another meeting with the stu- dents during the .summer.

For those without the imagination and perception to appreciate "2001: A Space Odyssey," a more recent film has been released that seems to fill the gap between "2001" and-those which came before. Perhaps if "Andromeda Strain" or similar creations had traveled the cinema circuits before the release of "2001"more movi: goers would have applauded Stanley Kubric's extraordinary presentation.

Based on the best seller by Michael Crichton, the "Andromeda Strain" was actually a new twist on the old creature from outer space plot. Instead of walking around stepping on the skyscrapers of Tokyo or sneaking up on innocent warm blooded victims, the Andromeda Strain i s a bacteria which has tlie potential of laying low the deserving population of earth. They seemed to deserve i t because the germs had been recruited by a space ship that was seeking new biological weapons for the U.S. Army.

From the early "2001"--like scenes where the scientists explore a small town that has met with the strain to the race to shut off the laboratory's nuclear self--destruct system, the picture builds up a gripping excitement that refuses to release the audience until the final scene.

Well placed bits of humor spicing the tension, the char- acterizations of the scientists working on an antidote, the machinery a t their disposal and the strain itself, possessing a life system unknown to earth all a t up to a well done film which might prove to rank with such classics a s "The Forbidden Planet" "Them" and "The Thing". And ironically enough, coming out three years later, i t provides this miss- ing link between earlier science fiction films and the ultimate "2001"

Dear Editor: The following i s a subject near and dear to my heart. As you may recall, I live with three other gentlemen (I

use the term loosely). A popular pasttime 'at our humble abode i s noisemaking.

Time was when I complained vociferously to my roomies about. the noise. "How c an I study when there i s so much noise?" I asked.

Their repeated and forceful reply was, "Go to the library." Well, I went to the library. 1 thought, for a long time, that

libraries were a source of quiet amidst our world of noise. I looked forwardto being surrounded by the solitude of hundreds of books and silence.

But, alas and, alack, the library i s no source of refuge. Even at a school a s sophisticated a s Sahgamon State,

there are blabbermounts who come to the library to chit chat. So, instead of setting a t the front tables; I moved to the stuffed chairs in the back. The blabbermouths were there too. So I moved to the carrols. Still, the blabbermouths pressed on me from all sides. Finally in a las t ac t of desperation, I moved clear around the comer, to the seemingly uninviting places were books were yet unpacked, and the dust lay thick on the chairs. Still, those goddamned blabbermouths followed me.

Consequently, I appeal to you to use your vast influence and silence this dreadful sin. Would you subtley assai l the sacriligeous souls who interrupt the stimulating serenity of SSU's library?

I have no gripe against peopie who like to talk, after.al1 We must have intercourse in order to survive, but why, oh why do they have to do i t in the library? The place for dis- cussion i s in the union.

Thank you for 'your anticipated cooperation in this scintillating matter.

Sincerely yours,

Ted Downey

O N RECORD

(SPSI-The two students who put out the small circulation SANGAMON GAZETTE are chuckling over the possibility that they may have the las t laugh ,thirty years from now. At that time the SSl1 "time capsule" sealed up during Unjver- sity Week celebrations i s to be opened and the contents examined. Included in the stuff stashed away in a downtown bank vault are copys of SPECTRUM, FOCUS, arid the GAZETTE. Of the three papers only the Gazette's printed on heavy duty bond. The Gazette fully expects the other two papers to have turned to dust by the year 2001. .

Among the documents placed in the capsule are private letters sent by President Spencer to the Regents. Such letters are a common device used to inform the higher-ups of just what the presidentthinks is happening on the campus and circumvents the openness of the formal "Presidents Report.''

Spencer told the small crowd present a t the capsule ceremonies that a t least some of the letters deal with the SCAP flap in the struggle to have recognized SSU degrees. Information in the letters, said Spencer, will prove to be entertaining, besides causing some "chagrin" when di- vulged.

Because of budget restrictions there won't' be a new campus Public Safety Director appointed very soon to take Larry Simons .place.. .. .the comment by a friend of campus security a t last weeks assembly meeting that the physical condition of the officers made it necessary they have wea- pons for self defense may not have se t too well with the men. One obvious exception is DAVID QUINN, who i s a member of the Springfield Underwater Search and Rescue Team ..... that story making the rounds about an SSU officer needing an alarm clock to wake him up when i t is time to go off duty isn't completely true. In actuality, says an of- ficer,,the man i s a "rent-a-cop" from the Curtis Detective Agency.

Former Springfield .Mayor Nelson Howarth is definitely beidg considered for a part time SSU teaching position next

.fall.

NOTE: The seal on that time capsule isn't all that tight. It was decided this past week to sneak a tape of "2001" author Arthur C. Clarke making his predictions for that year into the capsule.

Larry Smith, an SSU associate professor of communica- tions, i s in the process of designing a multi--media device. The rough design calls for a small dome to be lowered over five or six people lying on the floor and then projecting images over the domes surface with accompanying sound. Smith believes that such a &,vice, which he hopes to have completed during the summer, will be more personalized, effective, and less expensive than that massive "mem- brain" exhibited earlier by the U of I.

By now you have probably noticed that the bookstore i s no longer open during the evening hours. The problem i s not enough business during the evening.

STUDENT REPS.TELL GOVERNOR TUITION

HIKE IS BAD FOR STUDENTS Five representatives* from

The Student Advisory Com- mittee to the Illinois Board of Higher Education have just concluded their second meet- ing with Governor Richard B. Ogilvie.

The topics of discussion were primarily concerned with the Governor's proposed cut of $187 million from the Higher Education Budget and the proposed tuition increases that have been suggested a s a method of increasing revenue for higher education.

It i s the opinion of the Student Advisory Committee that the tuition increases would be an unwise solution to the problem of limited fiscal resources. We have pointed out to the Governor that this would pose a neaily insurmountable obstacle to students of limited financial resources should they elect to seek higher education.

The tuition increase, though i s not the entire story. Bills have passed through House committees that would de- crease by over $4 million, . the amount of aid available for needy students. All this has been done despite the fact that enrollments a t the state supported universities are predicted to increase by a s much as 17% during fiscal year 1972,

Essentially, students, or prospective students i n Illinois, are faced with rising education costs, rising en- rollment figures, restricted scholarship aid, and a sharp federal cutback in student work study programs. We feel that these problems will have a serious impact on the economic and social growth of Illinois. This state faces more complex problems each day. I t i s commonly assumed that the most practical way of solving these problems is to attract properly educated people to serve in state government as well a s private programs. Yet, if students are to be denied an education because they simply cannot afford to pay for it, then the problems will remain prolific and unsolved.

The Student 'Advisory Com- mittee is cognizant of the fact that higher education in Illinois has enjoyed relative

freedom as far a s .funding proposed programs is con- cerned. We are aware that there are ever more increasing demands on the state's fiscal resources, some perhaps more important than higher educa- tion. But for this state to turn its back on those of its citizens who have the am-, bition and intellectual capa- #city to seek higher education simply because they have no money is a very serious mat- ter that will have far reaching implications.

We see that this state needs problem solving people; for these people will improve the social and political

environment of all the citi- zens. We cannot acquire pro- blem solving people by pricing them out of the education market.

In ColoraQ, a t'm schools are in. severe trouble and may have DJ d o s e their. doors. ,

The University of Coloracb campus in Colorado Springs

and tfie Inter-Cutturd School of the Rockies are both very short on money and in one case, in debt :

In all, over 1500 colleges and universities are in fin- ancial difficulty. :Trends seem to indicate that state legisla- tures will remain close-fisted. .

The only bright lights of hope on the horizen are two

'new methods of budgeting universities in order to get more for the elusive state

dollar. Plan mig , Programming and

Budgeting' Systems (PPBS) and the student-credit hour formula budget seem. to be the only way for colleges to keep track of their remaining money.

The PPBS system studies combinations of means (D give the best education for the least amount of money. I t is a ratio of product and effect to c o s t *

The s$d& t c r e d i t hour formula budget is based upon an equation using h e total number of credit hours pro- duced by each college. ,Money is then allocated on a ratio of student to teacher hours.
