Pearson Courses Approved But Status Yet Uncertain
By LINDA DOHERTY
Kansan Staff Writer
Four six-hour courses offered in the controversial Pearson Integrated Humanities program received permanent accreditation a 96 to 12 vote of the College Assembly.
The program, in existence for three years on an experimental basis, has consisted of a four-seminar series of six-hour courses that fulfill all English, speech, Western
Civilization and humanities distribution requirements.
After 1½ hours of discussion, the Assembly extended its meeting past a 5:30 p.m. recess to finish action on the first point and to post-point proposal regarding the program.
Another meeting will be scheduled for next week to continue discussion of the program. The remaining resolutions will be discussed in future meetings, and can continue as a substitute for
requirements in English, speech, Western Civilization and humanities.
The College Assembly, composed of all faculty members, 60 elected students from the colleges within the college and 60 students from other schools, acts as the final body for decisions on academic matters.
Two-Day Enrollment Period To Be Announced by StudEx
The University Senate Executive Committee (SenEx) formed a subcommittee Monday to draft and forward to the Student Senate Calendar Committee a proposal to shorten the enrollment period. The Ende, executive secretary of the University, said Tuesday. Under the plan, students could continue to meet with advisers throughout orientation week, and enrollment would place on a Wednesday call by the registrar's office to finish paper work, Von Ende said. A second subcommittee was formed, he said, to study
Critics assailed the program on the basis of selection of instructors, method of instruction, and curriculum.
ways to facilitate the appeal of traffic tickets and to eliminate the backlog of appeals.
SenEx also issued a statement commanding the Kansas Board of Regents for taking a stand in favor of increased budget requests to upgrade faculty salary at regent institutions, Von Ende said. The regents released a statement, Jan. 29 pledging to request for an increase of 5.5 per cent and to work for increases in fringe benefits. The regents promised to seek greater increases in future legislative sessions.

"I think the Pearson concept of liberal education is an antithetical to what I believe is liberal education. "In that it should not be taught by those who encourage advocacy teaching."
Seaver said he did not think the program allowed young minds a freedom of choice because students were presented with only one point of view.

He said the aim of the Western Civilization program was to expose the student to a variety of philosophies rather than just one and that the aims of the Pearson Integrated Humanities Program were so different that it should not be allowed as a substitute for the Western Civilization requirement.
"We don't feel it's our job to form the
philosophies of the students for them," Seaver said.
George J. Worth, professor of English,
said that the English department had not
be consulted about allowing the Pearson
course of English 1.2 and 3, but required
courses of English 1.2 and 3.
"The entire department does not feel they are in a position to recommend that Pearson integrated Humanities replace English 1, 2 and 3." Worth said.
Reporting for the Educational Policies and Procedures Committee of the College Board
speech and drama and psychology, said, "It is obvious this program engenders strong opinions on both sides."
On one side, he said, an instructor should be free to teach truth as he sees it. Another important issue is that the principal relationships of trust, concern and advisedness between faculty and students should be honored and respected.
"However, the principle that students be exposed to all perspectives and arrive at a reasonable position on their own, cannot be ignored," said Crockett.
