'Anything goes at Berkeley,' says shocked crusader
By PAUL HANEY
"Anything goes at Berkeley." Karl Denmison told about 150 KU students at the Delta Delta Delta sorority house last night.
Dennison, state director of Campus Crusade for Christ, speaking on "Berkeley, odd or honest?" said the "liberal atmosphere" of the community surrounding the University of California at Los Angeles partly was responsible for the conditions conducive to the protests.
Dennison attended an International Christian Leadership Conference at Berkeley in January "to discuss how Christianity can be a relevant part of the college campus."
campuses.
"The situation at Berkeley is not unique," he said. "What you see there is no different than what you see on other campuses except they have taken one more step."
He said KU probably would not be the scene of similar protests "because the administration won't give the students the opportunity."
Berkeley students will "talk to anyone about anything," he said. He termed their biggest question: "Where am I in relation to Berkeley and where am I going?"
The attitude at Berkeley is "society has a problem and society must change," he said. "Society cannot and will not change. Man is basically selfish and self-centered."
Dennison said students "fail to realize that society is nothing in itself. Individuals must change and the change must come from inside.
"The most receptive students are radicals." He called them "free thinkers and revolutionists who are willing to do anything for the experience."
Dennison's shocking discovery was "the decline of femininity. It's a thing of the past—almost non-existent."
He said you could "walk down the campus and see girls wearing miniskirts with hose."
He told of the sale of "most unusual buttons" on the Berkeley campus. He cited "Don't Make War, Make Love" and "If It Feels Good, Do It" as typical of buttons sold.
The same students who protest the Vietnam war because people are killed are active in "back-your-local-abortionist" campaigns., Dennison said. "The individual is at war with himself.
"Some students believe free love
is the answer to problems." A sexual revolution is in progress and members are sought on campus for a sexual freedom forum," he said.
"Another student told me that LSD is the answer to the world problem." Students seek experiences," he said. "Experiences are the most immediate and pressing thing to them.
"Students want to run the whole show at Berkeley." Dennison said they want the power to hire and fire administrators and faculty members and to determine curriculum.
He said protests are popular at Berkeley. "But are these protests sincere or insincere?"
He said news media attract student involvement in protests. In its search for sensationalism, he said the press has given undue emphasis to the protests.
KU debate tourney to question US policy
Harvard, MIT, Miami, Stanford and UCLA are all sending representatives to KU's annual Heart of America debate tournament March 9-11.
"Because we are so selective, this is one of the hardest tournaments in the United States," said Miss Mahood.
According to Sharon Mahood, Springfield, Mo., senior and KU debator, every year a fraction of the teams finishing last are cut from the list of those teams asked to return the next year. The other teams are taken from a waiting list.
THE TOPIC IS "Resolved: That the United States should substantially reduce its foreign policy commitments."
Arguing this question from KU are Miss Mahood and Judson Briegel, Kansas City senior; and Jim Klumpp, Coffeyville junior, and Bob Campbell, Topeka junior.
This tournament will include 48 debate teams from about 25 states. Harvard is the defending tournament champion.
ACCORDING TO Miss Mahood, the hour between rounds makes this a very pleasant tournament. One thing she commented upon was the secrecy of the results until they are posted at the end of rounds.
"Unlike many activities held here at KU, the Heart of America tournament draws students from all sections of the United States," Don Parson, debate coach, said.
"At many tournaments this information leaks out, but here the debaters do not even know the location of the tally room," Miss Mahood said.
Eight preliminary rounds of debate will be held the first day of the tournament, Thursday, March 9, and a series of elimination rounds will continue through Saturday.
The KU speech department will host a banquet Friday night in the Union where winners of the first day's contests and the top ten speakers will be announced
THE TOP SPEAKERS will be awarded plaques based on ratings
to be given to them by the judges in Thursday's preliminary rounds.
Parson and the speech department have been working since October on the event.
The tournament costs about $1,000, some of this being paid with entry fees collected from the visiting teams.
"It sometimes gets to be a real headache." Parson said.
