Schools Esrahlishod. 1900
The .American Schools of
Qfieotu! Research, Witn head-iUvi.
u.vi u Jerusalem and Bagh-dad,
were established in 1900.
They 'iave since become pro-mneut
among the several mstitu-rons
to which credit must be giv-en
lor the comprehensive view
we now have of early civilization.
The impose of the American
Schools s to provide a fuller and
more adequate knowledge of the
steps which have led to man's,
josniou today. Each yeai’ las
brought new information regard-ing
his early career. An enlight-ened
literest on the part of num-erous
individuals has helped make
this possible.
The Schools in Jerusalem and
Baghdad axe internationally
known as centers of study and re-search.
The practical value of
this program will be grasped by
noting the great number of
prominent educators in,-the Umted
States, and Canada who have stu-died
and worked at the schools.
Admission will be 25 cents.

will probably make many
students very sad.

am not a Communist!”

Adopted Resolution; Cardinal Rebuttal
The /olio wing resolution was adapted by the Campus
Constitutional Convention ns the result of disagreement
with an editorial on judge J. J. Parker in the last ssue
oj the Cardinal —Editor.
We a group of students of the schools oi
Belknap Campus do hereby resolve that the
Parker editorial appearing on the iront page
of the December 7 Cardinal was in bad taste
and was the expression of the editor and not
the student body. Furthermore, we recom-mend
a more active Board of Student Pub-lications
to prevent an occurence of such
policy in the near future.
Signed,
Canatiluironai Convention.
Value judgement!
The convention has one set of values: the Car- 1
dinai staff has mother.
Editorials ;n newspapers are not necessarily'
intended to reflect sentiment, especially in college
publications where ’here 3 no criterion of opinion
We do reflect the sentiments of the staff, which isJ
a. representative body in itself.
We still ask opposition students to defy ouri
facts. The Cardinal sull as received no letters!
showing grounds far opposition, but several com- 1
menning us.
We. the staff, look with alarm at the recom--
mennation or a. more active publications board
We read into this a straight jacket for us. the staff ’
Under strict censorship we refuse to work, to be!
toid how and what to write.
Signed.
