er í I RITAS Ocrt^9^19^^ STUDENT MATURITY, CALMNESS OF ALL UMers On my return from a short trip to survey DRAW APPRECIATIVE PRAISE FROM DR. STANFORD: Mexico City College for the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, an assignment I accepted last winter, I was pleased to learn of the sane and stable response of our students to the emerging crisis over Cuba. They refused to show signs of panic. Apprehension, shared by all immediately following President Kennedy’s address, turned to calm discussion as students gathered in residence hall lounges. Counselors, faculty members, all who helped allay alarm have my warm appreciation. Switchboard operators who kept lines open into the morning hours so students could talk with their parents, gave immeasurable comfort. Deans Brunson and David report that the majority of parents called to reassure their sons and daughters. Parents anxious to have them home for the week met opposition from students, more concerned with mid-terms than with Cuba. By Thursday, 36 of some 1400 women in residence had gone home "for the weekend." Only 16 out of state men had indicated they were complying with parents’ wishes to have them home—also "for the weekend." A meditative note was introduced by religious groups on campus Thursday when "prayers for the world in crisis" were offered at Westminster Chapel for all Protestants, at St. Thomas Aquinas Chapel for Catholics. Hillel held similar services during its Friday evening ceremonies. During my first full day back in the office I met with University administrators to assess the plans of the University for protecting the welfare and safety of our students. The University Emergency Committee, formed several years ago to plan for hurricane blows, had already met. It plans to meet again this week with Civil Defense officials to review our situation. In the meantime, I wish to reassure our University community that the central administration is alert to current developments and is taking precautionary measures that seem indicated. I encourage everyone to continue normal patterns of work and study. HOMECOMING HIGHLIGHTS Homecoming Week brought honors to faculty and administration tapped for the following: IRON ARROW—Dr. Eugene M. Flipse, chairman, preventive medicine and health; Dale Lewis, tennis coach; Dr. Herman Meyer, mathematics; Dr. Jack A. Reynolds, English; Dr. F. G. Walton Smith, director, Institute of Marine Science; Robert Stanton, radio-tv-film special events director; Jose Ferre, trustee-alumnus. 0MICR0N DELTA KAPPA—Dr. John Finerty, associate dean, Med School; Dr. Sam Harby, education; J. Arthur Lewis, asst, to dean, Arts and Sciences; Lawrence Tremblay, alumnus-former music faculty. SCABBARD AND BLADE—Honorary: President Stanford, Coach Andy Gustafson, Dr. Alfred Andrews, classics; Associate: Capt. Edmond Beck, Capt. Buford Brooks, ROTC faculty. OMEGA—Chancellor Pearson. Chancellor Pearson was also honored by alumni during their homecoming banquet. Representing all alumni, Porter "Mr. Hurricane" Norris, PAA southern regional manager, presented Dr. Pearson with a pair of engraved cufflinks "as a token of the great esteem in which you are held by all alumni." Glenn Draper’s UM Chorale members delighted the more than 300 alumni with a rousing round of choral, quartet and solo selections.
