Monday night Student Senate
rescinded an April 2 motion for
National Student Association
backing, revealing by a 17-7
vote their decision to withdraw
from membership.
Senator arguments cited
thai ihe NSA was devoting
itself primarily to national affairs, noi io student government issues.
Jim Bedore, CMU NSA coordinator and executive vice
chairman of the Michigan region said, "I ask you to give it
(NSA) a chance. I'm sorry it
(motion for withdrawal) was
brought up."
Rebuttal on the issue, "Just
because things have failed in
the past is no reason ihey will
prosper in ihe future," came
from Priscilla Dawe, Trout
Hall senator.
Grove Sandrock, junior class
senator, said, "We must put the
Senate emphasis on the campus." He felt that membership
imposed the responsibility of
dealing with affairs that may
or may not affect Central.
The S752 budget cut allowed
by this Senate move involves
the representative cost to NSA
national congress, regional
meetings, national and regional
dues and publications.
Two students recently approved by the CMU Honors
Council bring to 19 the number
of students participating in the
program.
The new students are Priscilla Dawe, Pontiac sophomore,
and Margaret Frechete, Merrill
sophomore.
Honors  work  at  CMU  can
now be taken in English, foreign    languages,    geography-
geology, history and political
science,  home  economics, industrial   arts,   journalism,   library,    mathematics,    music,
physics-chemistry,   education-
psychology,    sociology    and
speech and drama.
Eighty-six    additional   freshman and sophomores are eligible for honors work by reason
of their grade point average.
Dr. Otto G. Graf, director of
the Honors Council and professor of German at the University
of Michigan, speaking to the
CMU faculty recently about the
honors program, said that a
study of the effectiveness of the
honors program at U of M in
1960 showed that honors students obtain more satisfaction
from their overall college experience than a comparably
bright control group.
Dr. Graf said ihe principal
reason given was the direct
and constant challenge of
ability through greater academic opportunities for individual and independent work.
The superior quality of instruction as well as the far
more than adequate relationships wiih counselors and advisors, he said, were instrumental in creating in a qualified way "a community of
scholars."
Dr. Graf also said that the
honors group at U of M, on
Graduate Record Examinations
given to them and to a control
group, fell in or above the
ninetieth percentile in each area
tested, while the control group
fell short of the ninetieth percentile on all tests.
The honors program was approved by the CMU Senate on
March 29, 1961, and began to
function officially in 1961.
The President's Council will
meet in the president's conference room at 9 a.m., June 4.
Dr. Susan B. Riley, internationally known educator and
| professor of English at George
j Peabody College for Teachers,
i Nashville, will deliver the
. commencement address at CMU
j June 3.
i Dr. Riley, former national
president of the American
Association of University
Women, will speak on "Man:
A Thinking Reed" at the 2:30
p.m. exercises in ihe field
house.
President Judson W. Foust
will present degrees to approximately 600 graduates.
■<$> Dr. Riley was a public school
teacher and college instructor
before joining the Peabody faculty in 1928. She also is a Peabody alumna, holding the B.S.,
M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from
there. She received the honorary doctor of literature degree
from the University of Chattanooga in Chattanooga, Tenn.,
and the same degree from Blue
Mountain, Miss., College, which
she attended.
Dr. Riley served as  chairman of the Peabody English
Deparimeni   in   1948-51.   Her
speciality is American literature, and she is a collector of
Southern folk literature.
Her service in the AAUW includes presidency of the Nashville   Branch  in   1934-36,   vice-
presidency    of    the    Southeast
Central Region in 1945-49, and
then national president  of the
large   organization   in   1951-55.
She was AAUW delegate to the
triennial conference  of the international organization in London in 1953 and in Paris in 1956.
As  president  of  the AAUW,
Miss Riley received one of the
highest  awards  of the Federal
Republic of Germany in the fall
of 1953 for the social and cultural contribution of the AAUW
in furthering German-American
understanding.
Dr. Riley is a member of the
College English Association,
Kappa Delta Pi, national honor
society in English, the National
Council of Teachers of English,
the Tennessee Folklore Society,
of which she was president in
1942-44, and the South Atlantic
Modern Language Association.
She has served as a member
of the Commission on Government Security, and then on the
advisory committee on civil defense.
She   was   honored   recently
by the Southeast Central Region of the AAUW, which established the Susan B. Riley
Fellowship as a $2,500 annual
award to a graduate woman
scholar.
Dr.  Riley is known for  her
love of her profession, and she
likens her career to a "pleasant
journey across a relatively high
plateau.   The   delights   of   the
journey are not sensational, but
they are continuously pleasing
and rewarding."
She explained, "Teaching provides a way in which one's own
personality might continue to
live, even in the half-recollection of the student. This provides the teacher with an escape from the obliteration that
comes for many with death."
