Council gets proposal for third time
By David Silverman Of the Kansan staff
The proposal for longer classification of research will make its third appearance before the University Council after a decision yesterday by the Council's Faculty Executive Committee.
FacEx voted to send the controversial proposal back to the Council for consideration at its January meeting. The vote came after the board of directors of the Corporation for Research Incorporated, CRINC.
which had been considering the pro-
posal, decided to reject it.
CRINC is a privately incorporated research organization that works with the University of Kansas on engineering and other research projects.
The Council voted to send the classification proposal to CRINC at its Nov. 7 meeting. In a letter to FacEx on Nov. 25, the CRINC board said that it would not incorporate the classified research proposal without the full support of the faculty.
Arno Knapper, presiding officer of the University Council, supported the CRINC decision.
"I really admire the CRINC board for staying within the University guidelines," Knapper said.
If the Faculty Council rejects the proposal this time, FacEx will ask the entire faculty to participate in a mail ballot to decide the issue.
dissemination of information.
The policy, which was originally presented to the Faculty Council in September, would allow some research methods and results to be kept secret for up to three years. In
some cases, a small amount of the research would be kept secret indefinitely.
Faculty who have opposed the research proposal at past Council meetings have said the policy conflicted with the University's ideals of free and open discussion and the
Proponents of the plan, including Frances Horowitz, vice chancellor for research, graduate studies and public service, have said the increased time allowed for classification was designed to attract more research projects to KU.

International Year of the Youth Apostolic Letter of Pope John Paul II To the Youth Of the World
What must I do so that my life may have value, have meaning? This earnest question comes from the lips of the young man in the Gospel in the following form: "What must I do to inherit eternal life?" Is a person who puts the question in this form speaking a language still intelligible to the people of today? Are we not the generation whose horizon of existence is completely filled by the world and temporal progress? We think primarily in earthly categories. If we go beyond the limits of our planet, we do so in order to launch interplanetary flights, transmit signals to the other planets and send cosmic probes in their direction.
All this has become the content of our modern civilization. Science, together with technology, has discovered in an incomparable way man's possibilities with regard to matter, and they have also succeeded in dominating the interior world of his thoughts, capacities, tendencies and passions.
But at the same time it is clear that when we place ourselves in the presence of Christ, when he becomes the confidant of the questionings of our youth, we cannot put the question differently from how that young man put its "What must I do to inherit eternal life?" Any other question about the meaning and value of our life would be, in the presence of Christ, insufficient and unessential.
And so, dear brothers and sisters, if you wish to talk to Christ and to accept all the truth of his testimony, you must on one hand "love the world"—for God "so loved the world that he gave his only Son"—and at the same time you must acquire interior detachment with regard to all this rich and fascinating reality that makes up "the world." You must make up your mind to ask the question about eternal life. For "the form of this world is passing away," and each of us is subject to this passing. Man is born with the prospect of the day of his death in the dimension of the visible world; at the same time man, whose interior reason for existence is to go beyond himself, also bears within himself everything whereby he goes beyond the world.
Everything whereby man, in himself, goes beyond the world—though he is rooted in it—is explained by the image and the likeness of God which is inscribed in humanity from the beginning. And everything whereby man goes beyond the world not only justifies the question about eternal life but in fact makes it indispensable. This is the question that people have long been asking themselves, not only in the sphere of Christianity but also outside it. You too must find the courage to ask it, like the young man in the Gospel. Christianity teaches us to understand temporal existence from the perspective of the Kingdom of God, from the perspective of eternal life. Without eternal life, temporal existence, however rich, however highly developed in all aspects, in the end brings man nothing other than the inculcant necessity of death.
Now there is an opposition between youth and death. Death seems far distant from youth. And it is. But since youth means the plan for the whole life—the planned up in accordance with the criterion of meaning and value—during youth too it is essential to ask the question about the end. Human experience left to itself says the same as Sacred Scripture: "It is appointed for men to die once." The inspired writer adds, "And after that comes judgment." And Christ says "I am the救赎 and the life; he who belives in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and whoever lives and belies in me shall never die." So ask Christ, like the young man in the Gospel, "What must I do to inherit eternal life?"
