Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - December 07, 1968, Winnipeg, Manitoba Winnipeg free december 1968 19 the Herron Slian Herron everyone suddenly burst out laughing As Siegfried Sassoon came very close to the other night i took part in one of those things i had resolved no longer to share in and came away with the feeling that i had been caught wandering across the stage of a bedroom it was at Shearey Zedek synagogue where i know some very Nice it was to be a dialogue Between us old people and the infallible Young in this instance Maitland Klass and for the decrepit ancients and for the Beautiful people with the pipeline to the inevitable Horace Patterson of the University of Nice David Binn of Brandon and pleasant and Alan Dudek of i thought the panel was unfairly loaded against us ancients with Klass on our Side of the Lor Klassis perpetual youth is one of his most familiar characteristics he was apparently impressed by the fact that 65 per cent of the student body is Over understand that 65 per cent of the population of Victoria is Over the age of one might therefore conclude that neither an extended adolescence nor a resigned autumnal Calm is a visible Community there Are difficulties of language in these take the word the current crop of student leaders have come to it it was worked to death or to the Point of nausea before All of them but Patterson were they Are student so the world comes to them in two shapes unspeakably corrupted and this is what makes them such personally attractive Almo Tyoung Patterson talks like a Liberal Baptist minister of 25 years ago claiming Equality of status for the Baptist Union with the Church of Rome in the Sovereign state of Vatican the Baptist would have used fewer but i was asking you to take the word want i it evidently Means to some of these Nice lads a situation in which they March into authority office and say we demand Abc and if they find that this creates an atmosphere in which it is very difficult for sane people to talk to one they Rush around and about in the world uttering anguished lamentations about the absence of what they actually appear to mean by dialogue is a demand granted in an atmosphere of if this finds no ready response there is an absence of it May be that this is what people mean when they report the need for so much remedial help for University students in Reading one begins in a Little while to want to laugh at the futility of these one sees a kind of ring dance being performed around the grave of a thing that used to be of value the civility of it is a useful thing for any let alone a student to know that juvenile insolence is not the Road to communication or anything except an image of a Leader burdened with a weary Load of what one comes away with again and again is the certainty although the theorists of this present agitation speak with passion of its relation to the whole of they really think and talk in a vacuum with no know ledge at All of what relation it is possible for a University to have with the society around it comes As a Surprise for when somebody with emphatic views about the University and the relation that must exist or must not exist Between the cries out in Why Doest the government keep out of it that plaintive cry has a simple answer they provide the Money they collect from the Community for the maintenance of the they cannot keep out of it with our they pay for this answer Drew from a bearded minor academic after the meeting the further precious contribution they can leave it to it is probably futile to go on talking to academics who think this Way because they Are not capable of understanding that the University in a very close relation to the Community and All its needs or it is this relationship to which they they speak of the ills of the University being a reflection of the ills of society but what they really want is to separate the University from the Community and turn it into what it can no longer be an intellectual Hothouse which sits apart from the real world and thinks in a vacuum about a world that will exist Only in their i speak Here not of some of the student leaders i know though some of them Are of this stamp but of some of the Junior academics who appear to have lost their touch with reality and live in a state of near hysterical the sad thing about this is that a great Many of us Are perfectly aware of the need for student participation in most of the processes of University a great Many of us want to see it happen and want to see it happen in an atmosphere quite foreign to the condition existing at Simon Fraser but we want also to be certain that the student leaders know what participation we would like to be sure that they recognized its obvious we would like to see less contempt in them for the great majority of their fellow students who Are More concerned about their studies than they Are about the instruments of and one of the great obstacles to a profitable and creative solution of the conflicts that at present exist quite the comic arrogance and contempt with which some of these Young men approach the situation and its they Are incredibly incompetent because they Are intellectually arrogant at the same wilfully determined to ignore the practical difficulties of practical Young men who come strutting with Public disdain for the people with whom
