A Comment On Professor Hook's Paper, Julius G. Getman
IUSTITIA
I start with the concession that much of what Professor Hook says is true. Not to recognize this would be folly. Hook's condemnation of academic violence is necessary, justified, and important. Ultimately, however, the picture he draws and the conclusions he states are misleading.
Academic freedom is indeed in jeopardy, but not merely from the internal sources Hook mentions. Outside pressures exist as well. Professor Hook suggests that by establishing a criminal law system, universities can successfully cope with student violence. Having been involved at almost every level of the internal judicial process at the university, I am convinced such …

Higher Education: The Black Professional, Donald H. Godbold, Andrew Goodrich, William Moore, Jr.,
IUSTITIA
The black professional in the community college is a catalog of contradictions. His or her condition can only be described as tragic; and his or her plight is a travesty on the philosophy of the two-year college. The preliminary findings of one study in progress note that nearly half (409 or 47 per cent) of the 865 two-year institutions included in the sample do not have a single black faculty member or administrator. Eighty-nine of the remaining 456 colleges have only one black staff member. Similarly, there are a number of community colleges located in areas heavily populated by blacks …
Affirmative Action: Quotas And Traditional University Standards With Particular Emphasis On The Role Of The Department Chairman, William D. Wheeler
Affirmative Action: Quotas And Traditional University Standards With Particular Emphasis On The Role Of The Department Chairman, William D. Wheeler
IUSTITIA
The higher educational institution is often an exclusive citadel. Students are selected after close scrutiny of past achievements. Teachers as merchants of ideas, virtues, and cosmic thoughts are invited to membership only after certain academic passports have been acquired. These eligibility criteria are established by the faculty who, presumably, are the only ones capable of assessing reasonable standards for those seeking admission. Colleges and universities are closed sub-communities. They practice discrimination while giving lip service to liberal thought, knowledge, and enlightenment. It comes, therefore, as little surprise to clear thinkers that the house of intellect leads the parade of culprits …

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
A new program, Let's Read, began operating at Western Michigan University in 1972. No sooner had it started than it won an award for creative programs from the Adult Education Association of Michigan. Let's Read is based upon the idea that mothers, even poor and uneducated mothers, can learn how to provide intellectual stimulation for their young children.

Reading In The Secondary School: 'Carbon Dating' Figures Of Speech, Kenneth Vandermeulen
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Teachers usually find that students become enthusiastic and energetic when they are discovering new things for themselves. This article points up some possibilities in teaching students to become "detectives," investigating the age and origin of words and phrases used in American simile and metaphor. An end result is sure to be a heightened feeling for literary style, with an increased appreciation for creative writing a possible "spinoff." Students may also gain a clearer picture of the cultural settings from which these figures of speech are derived.

Did You See "IRA Reports on The Right To Read Effort"? This special report on the National Right to Read effort was published in May, 1973, for IRA members and others interested in this important program. The Right To Read effort was established in 1970 by the late Dr. James E. Allen, Jr., who was then U.S. Com missioner of Education. The program was designed as a coordinated endeavor to work toward one common goal—to ensure that by 1980 ninety-nine percent of all people under 16 years of age in the U.S. and ninety percent of all those over 16 …
The Play's The Thing: A Dramatic Approach To Reading, Harvey Frommer
The Play's The Thing: A Dramatic Approach To Reading, Harvey Frommer
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Too often educators and students alike content themselves with the more convenient aspects of reading drama: analysis of thought, dissection of structure and plot, information about a playwright's life and times, discussion of characterization, performance of segments of a play. Language—sometimes soaring, sometimes vulgar, poignant, distressing, philosophical, or witty—gets short shrift in this type of drama study.

Educational Consumership And Tomorrow's Schools, John R. Dettre
Educational Consumership And Tomorrow's Schools, John R. Dettre
Educational Considerations
Unless those who hold that schools have value identify more effective ways of getting the best ideas into practice in the least wasteful time, the chances are that schools will not change at all, warns this thoughtful essayist. Every concerned educator, he suggests, must develop "the necessary skills and understandings to operate as a skilled consumer of proposed ideas for change in education." He offers practical guidelines.

Should Compulsory Education Laws Be Modified?, Antonita Diederich
Should Compulsory Education Laws Be Modified?, Antonita Diederich
Educational Considerations
Laws requiring school attendance "should be modified to include funding and sanction for programs geared to meet individual needs and cultural differences," this teacher contends. The goal is to have students stay in school not because they have to, but because they want to.

Vietnam And Beyond: The Challenge To Educators, Richard A. Brosio
Educational Considerations
"Young people must be helped…systematically [to] build their own criteria of value; for otherwise we shall have a citizenry which is condemned to operate inside another's view of reality," says this concerned educator. He spells out the challenge to society and self.
