Students-‘Second Class Citizens’
By MARK TARGE
Assistant News Kditor
In an exclusive interview with the Hurricane, Jack Leib-erman, more commonly known as “Radical Jack of FSU,” tells why students are becoming “second-class citizens” as the administration of Florida State University (FSU) and other state schools censure and dismiss from campus any ideas they disagree with.
Leiberman who is currently touring the state, and will be at UM in March, is campaigning as a Socialists Workers Party Candidate for the Second Congressional district of Tallahassee and Gainesville.
"I was teaching at FSU's Center of Practical Education (CP)," Lieberman says, as the interview begins, “it’s a free education, financed by the Student Government and controlled by the students. The courses include everything from basket weaving to Zen Buddism.”
“The course I was teaching was a course on Revolution. That was until the administration took over the CP, after community pressure, and eliminated my course on Revolution and a course on Homosexuality."
“The trouble started last Spring when the State Legislature demanded that my actions at FSU be investigated.”
“Their main legal grounds were that since I was a member of the Youth Socialists Movement, a group that was banned from campus, I too should be banned."
“But this was an infringement of the first ammendment of the constitution, my freedom of speech. And if “you start banning groups then you start banning rights.”
“You just start with SDS and Gay Lib and go on and on." ( “I was then subpoenaed by the state ^legislature, but after
several large protests and marches, the subpoena was withdrawn.”
“But the committee demanded that I be suspended from school, specifically it was Senator Haverfield of Miami who demanded this.”
“But the Board of Regents felt opposition to this rising, and fearing trouble, our appeal was upheld. They said they saw no reason to investigate the Center for Practical Education, actually referring to the course I was teaching: How to Make a Revolution in the United States.”
“But at the Board of Regents meeting of September 17 they decided to reverse the decision, and the courses on Homosexuality or ‘sex perversion’ as they preferred to call it, and Revolution were dropped from the curricular, because it was felt such courses had no place on Florida’s campuses.”
“President Marshall of FSU agreed and the CP was taken over by the administration.”
“The students then were allowed to select their own courses and their own teachers. I was again asked to teach a course on Revolution. I didn’t volunteer, I was asked to teach, asked by the students and I wasn’t paid either.”
"But the administration wouldn’t allow this and many students were upset when delays occurred. So it was taught in a discussion type group sessions."
But two instructors, Clare Cohen and myself, were suspended for teaching against an executive order, an order which never existed.”
“My course was banned, and I was suspended from school, but the charges against Clare Cohen were mysteriously dropped. Even though there were a lot of other teachers

Julie Nixon Eisenhower represented her father at a ceremony on Friday, transferring approximately 326 acres of federal property under the Legacy of Parks Program to Florida Park officials.
Under the bright Miami sunshine with a backdrop of Biscayne Bay, Mrs. Eisenhower gave seven acres of land on which she stood at Dinner Key, to Miami Mayor David T. Kennedy for the city of Miami park construction.
The youngest member of the first family, now a resident of Florida while husband David is an officer of the US Navy, stationed off Jacksonville, arrived midmorning with a flurry of secret service agents, harried public relations men and numerous members of the media.
Most of the persons in attendance were elementary school children for whose benefit the park will be constructed.
The land at Dinner Key, valued at $900,000, has been sitting dormant for the past five years; construction of a new park-mall could begin as early as next week.
Attractive Julie, accompanied by Nathaniel P. Reed, former chairman of the Florida Pollution Control Commission and now assistant secretary of the Department of Interior for Fish and Wildlife and Parks under President Nixon, along with an entourage of Florida’s top Park Commissioners, stopped to shake hands with hundreds of youngsters who pushed and squealed with delight at a closer glimpse of the President’s daughter.
Speaking on behalf of her father’s new Legacy of Parks Program, Mrs. Eisenhower said that efforts to preserve the environment are of the highest priority to the President.
“It is an excellent project, turning over unused lands to benefit the public use,” she said.
“I am very happy to be involved in it."
Mrs. Eisenhower said that it was great to be a Floridian and that she and David are very interested in Florida lands.
Julie spoke fast but clearly and then helped Secretary Reed hand out the large plaques to each of the commissioners who received lands.
Quite a politician in her mannerisms and activities on behalf of her father, last month Julie trooped around Cypress Hole in the Everglades, another piece of Florida land in the process of

Hurricane Reporltr
Ruling in favor of a case presented by Mrs. Barbara Woodsum, a Melbourne computer operator who recently moved from New Jersey to Florida, a three-judge federal panel has overturned Florida’s voter residency requirement.
The decision, handed down last Thursday in Orlando, ruled unconstitutional Florida's requirement of one year’s residency in the state and six months in the county for voter eligibility.
As a result, an estimated 146,000 pewly-arrived Floridians are now eligible to vote, said the American Civil Liberties Union, which represented Mrs. Woodsum in the case.
What does this mean for UM students? According to the court decision, any UM student at least 18 years old is now eligible to vote in the state of Florida. However, if a student has not yet registered, hfe villi be unable to vote in the March 14 primary election.
Voter registration ended on Saturday, February 12, at 5 p.m. However, an official at the Dade County Elections Division told the Hurricane that students "don’t have to register until October 7” for the November general election.
According to the spokesman, the court decision affects “all elections." In that case, most UM students are now eligible to vote in local Coral Gables elections.
In cooperation with the ruling, Florida Secretary of State, Richard Stone ordered election supervisors to register voters “without regard to residency” for the state's March 14 presidential primary-
However, at the same time Stone asked supervisors to “make a notation” beside the name of each new voter registered. In the event that the Orlando panel’s decision is overturned by a higher federal court, each newly regis-
tered voter will prove residency.
have to
Under the new ruling, all U.S. citizens, 18 years old or more, would have to do to be eligible to vote, would be to swear an oath at the time of the registration declaring himself a Florida resident.
Stone warned that this could lead to an influx of out-of-state voters, particularly Alabama and Georgia supporters of Gov. George Wallace. In order to stop this, State Sen. Mallory Horne (Dem-Tallahassee) indicated that he would introduce a bill requiring a three month county residency as a prerequisite to voter eligibility.
State Rep. Elvin Martinez (Dem.-Tampa), chairman of the House Elections Committee, asserted last Friday that his committee would begin discussion of the matter on Monday.

Robert Shevin, in West Palm Beach last Friday, discussed his support of a shorter residency requirement of three to six months.
“It is my view we have to have some residency limitation,” he said. Shevin believes that this shorter requirement could be defended in the federal courts,
New Cafeteria Op ens In Fall
Starting in September, 1972, the present upperclassmen cafeteria, the Hurricane Room, will be converted into a fast foods service available to all students at UM.
The fast foods program will include a take-out service and will be geared to alleviate the present crowded conditions in the Ibis cafeteria.
Students will be able to use meal tickets on allowance and cash at the centrally located cafeteria. The idea originated from the Union Board of Governors to convert the Hurricane Room.
This change is certain to be a convenience to the students eating their lunch be-
tween the busy hours of 10-2 p.m.
Union Open Until 1 a.m.
A survey was recently conducted by a group of graduate students concerning the present Student Union hours.
It was concluded from this random sample that the majority of university students would like to see the Student Union open longer on Saturday nights. So, beginning February 12, the Student Union will be open until one a.m. for a trial period of 4 weeks.
This only includes the bowling and billiards areas, however.
