| In retrospect, the manner in which R.U.S. reached its decision
concerning Mr. Herring's position raises questions about that
organization's ability to devote itself to such important matters in a
responsible way. Furthermore, the degree'to which R.U.S. was
truly representative of the student body in handling the issue is
somewhat doubtful.! Eg \
In the first place, the action taken by R.U.S. is only a recom-
mendation. Dean Garvey will make the final decision on re-hiring or
firing Mr. Herring next year based on the recommendations of both
R.U.S. and Mr. Kennedy, the Director of Student Affairs.
Secondly, was R.U.S. acting in a manner truly representative of
the overall opinion of the student body, or did it act as an isolated,
autonomous organization acting on the basis of personal vendettas
rather than on an objective judgement of the facts? f \ \
At the previous R.U.S. meeting on November 8, representatives
were told "to keep an open mind and "to canvass student opinion."
They were told not to take sides on the issue. Instead of ^in-
vestigating their constituents' opinions, many R.U.S. members
became directly involved in the controversy. To a certain degree,
they started the controversy. Some R.U.S. members on both sides
initiated or signed petitions on whether Mr. Herring should i be
retained. These representatives sacrificed their objectivity to their
emotions, at the expense of the student body whom they represent.
Also, how can R.U.S. claim to be representative of student opinion
when the signatures of over 200 students in favor of Mr. Herring
were totally ignored? Furthermore, the alleged petition against
Herring was never presented, yet R.U.S. took it for granted that it
existed. Why wasn't that petition introduced? \
One of the objections raised against the pro-Herring petition was
that it contained only freshman signatures. Whether this is true was
never established, but even if it was, doesn't R.U.S. consider the
freshmen important enough to seriously weigh their opinion? In ©1967 PsfEWfO
