ASHE BUILDING The Mia Vol. XXXIV, No. 14 University of Miami urncane Coral Cables, Florida February 20,1959 UNIVERSITY IF «¡AMI -----FEB 8Q| 1959 ★ ★ ★ AmerteaUBIA Most Complete Y UY College Newspaper ★ ★ ★ BITTER Music School Reorganizing Under Bitter | John Bitter, dean of the school of music, who will turn his orchestral baton over to Dr. Fabien Sevitzky for the 1959-60 season, has added to his duties the reorganization of his school. President Jay F. W. Pearson announced that Bitter would “coordinate an intensive study of the entire musical program at the University, with a view to further strengthening our symphony orchestra and further development of our music school,” during the coming season. Dean Bitter subsequently informed The Hurricane in an exclusive state-m e n t "as an-nounced by President Pearson, I am going to devote my full time and energies for the coming academic year to trying to meet the ever-increasing challenges of our growing School of Music. “The UM School of Music was one of the first to be established when our University was founded in 1926. It was accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music in 1939. “The offering of courses leading to undergraduate and graduate degrees is only one of the purposes of the School of Music. By means of three recital scries, opera workshop performances, chorus, band and symphony concerts, it renders a service to the community unique among American institutions of higher learning. “In view of the constant change being brought to our way of living by developments in science and technology, it has become important to reappraise the entire program and purposes of our school. “For this reason, with the support of friends of the Music School in this area, one or more consultants from outside the community will work with me, our university associates and our supporting friends to study our school's program and to make recommendations. "It is my hope that as a result of this survey, our school may supply more and more spirit and the incentive to all concerned for attaining the spiritual values, balance and composure so strongly needed In our living today.” Act's Anti-Subversive Oath Gets Colleges' Irate Protests By MARY ANN CRISWELL Hsmcist Stat Rsssrtsr Unlike two eastern colleges, UM will continue to grant student loans through the national defense student loan program despite a clause which makes students swear they don’t belong to any subversive organization or group and have no sympathy with any. Bryn Mawr and Haverford col- Icges recently refused to participate in the program due to the antisubversion pledge required by the National Defense Education Act. Yale and Harvard University officials have opposed the oath. Four other institutions—Swarthmore, Bates, Bowdoin and Colby—have done the same. Under the Act, every applicant for a government loan must sign an oath of allegiance to the United States and its Constitution. Dr. James M. Godard, executive vice president, said that faculty members are generally in favor of the program. Although Dr. Godard believes it unwise to require the oath, he feels educators should not deprive students of loan benefits because of it. He stated. “The anti-subversive provision is a poor technique to keep Communists from participating in the program.” Dr. H. Franklin Williams viewed the oath as “an unnecessary provision, because anyone who would be willing to subvert the Consitution would not hesitate to swear a false oath.” He feels more loans will be available next semester, and more students will receive them. Dr. Williams explained that the federal government made hasty distribution of the loans. While allocations to the states were to be made on the basis of student enrollment, the government made them on the basis of requests of the participating universities, he said. He believes that the intended purpose of the loyalty oath is to “single out dangerous students and teach- M ers. In regard to the loyalty oath, President A. Whitney Griswald of Yale said, "It is our conviction that belief cannot be coerced or compelled.” The $20,030 allocated to UM by the federal government for this semester was divided among all classes of the undergraduate and graduate schools, including the Medical School. Loans ranging from $100 to $500 were recently awarded to 55 of 1*5 applicants. Although priority was given to those applicants planning to teach in elementary or secondary schools the loans were awarded to students in all fields. First repayment of a loan must be made one year after the recipient has completed his education. Each loan carries an annual interest rate of three per cent Under the repayment program announced by the government a student entering the teaching profession may have his debt reduced by as much as 50 per cent. Death cancels payment of the loan, and payments may be delayed by service in the armed forces. Shakespeare Comedy To Open At Ring The Ring Theater will present its fourth play of the season, Shakes-speare’s “As You Like It,” Thursday The famous comedy, directed by Dr. Delmar E. Solem, chairman of the Drama Department, features Joan Brink in the role of Rosalind. William Curtis as Orlando and Victor Helou as the court jester, Touchstone.
