Tuesday, April 20, 1971 University Daily Kansan Develops New Indian Curriculum 3 Haskell Dean Discusses Change (Editor's note: This story is the first in a series on Haskell Indian Junior College.) By MARY FROJEN Kansan Staff Writer BILL J. Burgess, dean of general education at Haskell Indian Junior College, is an articulate change in Indian education. He changes himself and he is aware of the problems and possibilities of bring up a program of higher education exclusively for Indians. Bill. J. Burgess ... accusations to education Burgess' job involves hiring new faculty and helping teachers establish new course offerings. The course is particularly in the medical education, for the first time The dean works closely with Alex Lazarino, director of information studies at study and coordinating work of KF faculty members who are teaching part-time at Haskell University instructors, Burgess and Lazarino also are developing new curriculum methods and activities. In a recent interview Burges explained some of the goals of the new program in general when he lead an associate degree arts department at Haskell's recent Kansas state accreditation, the credits can be transferred to a four-year college to continue his education. "WE ARE trying to take the accusations that have been leveled against him in the past few years, and the criticism as advice to develop the kind of program that Indian parents want," Burke says. give its students a real choice concerning their education. He said Haskell was trying to "There are two extremes," he said, "One has been emphasized for the sake of self-esteem to make no Indians out of Indians—people who were educated but completely cut off from culture and nature on the other extreme is the approach that is steeped in heritage but it have much else to work with." "Haskell's new programs will let the student choose to go to one extreme or the other, or any mixture of the two." BURGESS SAID A new teaching approach, "experiential learning," was being used by the teachers in general education. "Experiential learning," is really learning by experience, a place where he is and adapting both the process and the content of in-person instruction. Burgess pointed to statistics showing the national level of 1 per cent of teachers taught by other Indians. Most Indian state of Indian institutions have high teacher numbers. Haskell is using every means to find the best Indian teachers teachers, we hope their presence will develop students' pride and confidence in their own abilities." he said. THE ESTIMATED there were about 30 Indians in the United States with doctorates. Haskell will hope to have six more next year. Basic curriculum changes are being made at Haskell, Burgess said, especially in areas related to the language. Such languages are currently being offered for credit, and eight more will be offered in the fall. An Indian Studies program, in which the approach, is being established "We're going to make an effort to develop our own curriculum in the US, and we are discarding most of our old material on the American Indian community." Also important to Haskell's new approach, he said, is the proposition that the junior college should have a modern Indian community around the campus. "SOON, WE HOPE to have as many as 22 programs on Indian reservation to expose us to expose some of our faculty to specific reservation situations." reservation support for Haskell "in the past, trained people had gone back to the reservation with a tremendous commitment and were treated like strangers because they were doing for them less than with them. Community involvement at all levels is essential to our shift in emphasis." Burgess said, "the chief problems he faced in this year, other than 'having to do so much so fast,' involved faculty and student." "A lot of our staff have not been as flexible, aggressive and innovative as the demands of the new situation have dictated—uped up the experiential learning concept and then copied on it. "Also, many of our students have been so conditioned by the additional teaching methods that they have returned a return to the old approaches. "Some students don't know how to do with their new freedom, how to do at this point is what they need," that's our stated approach, and hope that gradual introduction of methods will excite the students. The tightened budget at the University of Kansas should have little effect on student loans and scholarships, Jerry Rogers, said Monday. Rogers is the director of Office of Student Financial Aid. Budget Won't Hurt Loans affect us in our ability to get the necessary 10 per cent cent match funds for the National Defense Lean appropriations,2 he said. The money given to Loans are given to students on the basis of their financial need and academic ability. The money is lent by the national governmen- tary institution that the university match fund the amount. Rogers said he hoped that the University would be able to raise all the necessary matching funds because if not all of them would be denied some students would be denied loans. "It would be a shame to have to do that," he said. "The loan is given to students in order of Men from all parts of the nation will participate in the colloquium.

The South Dakota Speech Association will meet Friday and Saturday in Madison, S.D. Faculty members who will attend the conference both associate and Bob Patton, speech and drama, and Robert Hamlin, acting assistant professor of speech and drama. Students may have trouble getting short-term loans given by the Endowment Association, but, Rogers said, the budget is not the end of the problem. He said the Endowment Fund cannot because of the failure of students to pay back loans from previous semesters. Rogers said that he did not anticipate any problems in his administration, though scholarship applications were fewer this year than last. This is an unusual drop in view of the national situation across the country, he said. "Our economy is changes from one based on material goods to one based on information," Gene Youngblood, media director, said in a lecture Monday in the University Theatre. Author and newspaper criticist Youngblood is a member of the California Institute of Arts School of Critical Studies. He was speaking in an informational group about the department of design about the philosophical implications that advanced image-making technology.

Youngblood said a computer revolution occurred following Willem Dijkstra's process information were developed, such as Xerox, IBM "I AM, IN a sense." Youngblood said, "part of the first video generation. For most of my life I can remember TV." Youngblood linked the first group of dissident students with the advent of television. These students were born when television began, he said, and they grew up surrounded by the video game behavior was affected by this environment of information. Today there are 1500 books and magazines published everyday, Youngblood said. He said since television began in 1948, 82 different channels have come into being, with 870 different years of man-houses, 6,600 years of man-houses have been spent watching television. HE SAID STEREO started out as being an insignificant development which became the impact music in the form we now know it. Youngblood described stereo as "the only really successful work," said young people use rock music to communicate the meanings and values of their culture, which were kept out of the mass media. power of communication together. Youngblood said. He stated that movies are profit generating tools and kind of message that appeals to the masses—the "lowest common denominator." Youngblood said that the mass audience was often impressed on sorcery by the There are now 36 different makes of video cassette machine with neighborhood said One company offers an interactive system that allows you to see what you want to see, when you want to see it, be able to do something, is continued, is a two-way interactive system on which you can record something and play it you can play regular cassettes.
