SEC Hears The SEC held another of its weekly meetings, though due to lack of attendence by members, the meeting almost didn't get off the ground. Three mem bers, Len Nuttal, Stuart Levitan, and Diane Turner, showed up in time for the meeting. Since a quorum of five is nec essary for a meeting, it was necessary for those members preSent to search for two more members. After these were found, the meeting began. chairman Ron Davidson announced that the Bread Board requested $150 for the Halloween party. This was passed unanimously. He also reported that a veterinarian, who was comulted about cat flea collars, said that such collars are not chemically harmful to the cat (i.e. won't shorten their lives) although no one knows for sure if there are any other effects. The SEC voted unanimously to reguire cats on campus to have these collars. They will be available from the dorm mothers for $1.50 (the SEC is selling them at the same price that it costs to buy them. ) The subject of El Douche was then raised. The editors asked why the SEC had refused to grant their request for $60 la1t week. Davidson explained t hat members present felt that the T.ajority of students no longer supported the funding of El Douche with student money. Diane Turner, explaining that she had changed her mind since the last meeting, made a motion to grant El Douche $60 to continue publication. When asked why that amount of money was needed, the editors an SWI!rl!d that: it costs s22 to put out one issue and the money re quested was less than was actually needed. The SEC then voted 3-1, with one abstentio:u, to gnnt El Douche the $60 its editors had requested. The Presidential Search committee reported that Dr. Macy will be returning to the campus, as will or. Fuchs. Dr. Fuchs reportedly more favorably impressed the faculty. The Education Policy Committee reported that they are looking into many facets of education--admissions, student aid, and most importantly, the calender (the consideration of the 4-1-4 system, as opposed to the current 3-1-3-3.) The Faculty Status committee reported thl t a special fac ulty meeting will be held one week from Friday concerning the SUbJeCt of tenure. The college Resource committee reported that no meetings were held recently, and that the only subject discussed earlier was the question of the possible mismanagement of the bookstore. The committee was awaiting the re n.lt of an audit of the books before reaching any conclusion. A motion to sign Noah Yanicb in as a guest of the SEC for a week passed unanimously. Similarly, a motion concerning the signing in of J.D. Moore for the rest of the term also passed. Amy Willis then suggested the retention by the SEC of a lawyer on a part-time basis. This lawyer would be available to provide assistance to any student who becomes involved with the law, and would also be able to offer legal advice to the SEC on any matter that might come up, such as the swimming pool controversy. Dean Helgeson suggested that it might be pos-Refrigerator Tax Notice: All students owning large (greater than four cubic feet) refrigerators must register them with the S. E. C. The registration fee is five dollars and is payable to Hope Austin. Committee sible to get a lawyer from Sara sota who w _ould donate his/her time to the students. Amy agreed to look into this issue farther. Davidson then asked that all students especially SEC members, tell him what they think ab.out tenure and governance. He will put up in Hamilton center some propos-.h con cerning these subJects and Halloween Reports would like everyone to read them and tell him what they think of them. Then next week the SEC could discuss the stu dents' reactiom to these pro posals and perhaps pass a resolution supporting the majority's decision, which would then be handed over to the special faculty meeting for their consideration. Party Planned New College's traditional Halloween party for Sarasota commtm ity children will erupt from 7 -9 PM on this coming Saturday, the twenty-eighth of October, with dinner moved up to a 4:30-5:30 slot to allow for last minute preparations in Hamilton Center. Setting up the party, which will take virtually all day Saturday, is going to require a lot of student volunteers. Booths need to be built, decorations have to be created and hung, and the infamous Fishbowl Spookhouse be assembled, the latter tmder the direction of impresario Smitty. One additional Hallow's Eve will be Friday night popcorn parties in both lower, C dorm and the NatSci building, which should produce several cubic yards of the stuff destined for consumption on Saturday. "Irregularities" Discovered In Bookstore Operation New College Student Injured In Auto Last Monday shortly before dawn, while walking along General Spaatz Boulevarde, thirdyear student Lisa Berley was struck from behind by a car driven by a Bradenton resident. Ms. Berley suffered injuries to her pelvis and right leg. She will spend five more days in Sarasota Memorial Hospital after which she may go home to Roslyn Heights, New York. Court Election Set Ron Davidson has announced that an election will shortly be held to fill the recently emptied Student CoUl'l Judge spot Any student wishing to rtm should submit his or her name to Ron Davidson, Box 106, and should submit a petition for nomination with at least 28 signatures. InnerCity by Sruart Levitan The campus Book shop is without funds. The franchise, given to. local lawer saul Paster, has had a credit limit placed upon it by Florida Educational paperback. Because the store is unable to pay off its outstanding accounts, there is a possibility that no more couiSe books .will be delivered David Gorfein, chairman of the college Resource committee, might open an in vestigation of the matter in a few weeks. Informants close to the source, report that Mr. Paster, who promised to invest $20, 000 to boost the business sta rtmg has fallen far short of delivery. Although the CRC voted 6-1 to give the franchise to Lee Harrison, Business Manager Harra impressed upon them what he termed "the actualities of the case, whereupon the) reversed themselves, giving Mr. Paster the contract. For more details see the story on Page eight. Mental Health To Be Discussed Here Mr. Leslie W. Hooper, assistant dil:ector of the Bronx Children's Psychiatric Hospital, New York City, will be on campus Thursday {November 2) to discuss the Hospital's innovative work with the mental health problems of inner-city children, and the possiblities of student internships in the hospital with interested students and faculty. James Feeney, off-campus study coordinator, said that Mr. Hooper will be in the Fishbowl at 7:30 pm next Thursday. The children's hospital, an in-patient and out-patient mental health service for children of the Bronx are a, most from economically-deprived families, "is at the forefront of the movement to bring mental health services out of the attic into commtm ity-wide service," Mr. Feeney noted. Bronx Children's challenges one's stereotype of the "mental hospital." There are long corridors and cinder black walls, but the walls are covered with murals painted by the children. Room bustle with activity and moments of disruption are preferred over an orderly collection of drug-pacified charges. Rather than being a dumping ground for the city's unmanageable children, the hospital reaches out into the community with day-and out-patient services. Student interns at Bronx Children's have an oppor ttlllity for exposure to a variety of the institution's program and services. Intems work directly with the children and the professional staff. All Actions Tabled In NC Information System Unveiled Student Court Within the next few weeks, the various information resources at N C will be trying to merge into an effective "information net" which should better serve the college community than the present uncoordinated system of seperate newspaper, radio station, and chaotic bulletin boards. The new system will center around the CATALYST, as it is the most widely utilized center of commtmications medium that is presently organized. The CATALYST will serve as the distribution center for the majority cf campus news, distributing relevant information to the radio station and the as-yet-unborn ''bulletin board newspaper." The latter "publication" will have a Daily press run of approximately three copies, and it will consist of a reasonable facimile of a newspaper front page posted in three places on the C campus, most likely Hamilton Center, the C-dorm bulletin board, and some where in the South Hall-Library area. The "paper" will be up dated daily, and will offer a dependable source of current information on meetings, faculty absences, campus and off campus films, general announcements and similar data. The coordination of the college media is being promoted by seventh term student Kirk Kerekes, who is doing it as part of his contract for this term. Kerekes hopes that the ready availabil-ity of reliable information will eliminate much of the confusion and tension caused by the present information vacuum and promote "a greater sensitivity to generally ignored reality that even the most distrusted or un popular person has his or her own fears, night terrors, and driving tensions which are more or less out of their control. They are, in other words, more or less human, and their actions should be considered in that light. Kerekes also said that the radio station news department ''could use considerable help" from interested students, and that anybody interested in heading the \VNCR news department should talk to him. Business was conducted rapidly at the Student Court meeting Tuesday night in the Fishbowl. Sharon Boothe was elected Court Secretary, and Tom McGuigan was elected Bailiff. Brian Reid read a petition submitted to the Court by Noah Yanich, questioning WNCR manager Tom Som mers' action in dismissing Noah from the WNCR staff. The issue was tabled to give both defendent and prosecutor time to prepare their arguements, but will be taken up again within the next week. It was :nmotmced that Ira Halberst<1dt was preparing a petition questioning the legal ity of last year's Student Chair selections, after which the meeting was adjourned.

Tom Campion Editorials The CATALYST To the NC Community: It was with amazement and anger that I read the article entitled "South Hall paper of the OC\. 12 CATA LYST. My main coDCern is that New college students and faculty, imagining the Board of Trustees to be a powerful and somehow sinis ter body, will be tempted to believe the slanderous and absurd charges made against them. To refreJJ your memory, the article suggests that the Trustees are encouraging delay in the selection of a president because it is a financial advantage to pay no salary, and because they prefer New college to have an "Unreliable administrative structure." The basis of the charge is said to be incomplete administrative papers found by a student.

Tuesday evening, I attended the "coffee and conversation" evening held in Dr. Bates' apartment, and I was grateful to the five faculty members I saw there for showing their interest in that small but significant way. The next night, three SEC members came on time to the SEC meeting; we are not proud to annotmce that the CATALYST was better represented than the student body. And speaking of ... Perhaps we can say that 'cw College is simply trying to be too nice to too many people. Although this may be considered an admirable trait, the end result often is that many, many more people get hurt. Those people are the students of this institution, who after all pay a reasonable sum for the alleged purpose of obtaining an education. May we name as points in case the New Natural Sciences Building, the tendency to over tenure a department, or the Bookstore, as described elsewhere. Just perhaps there is no out and out corruption at New College, and it's against the 'ew College "Spirit" to critiei1e people for being "nice, but just perhaps, for our own benefit, a llttie communications and intelligent backbone would be nice. fro'Tl $9195 SARASOTA SCHWINN CYClRY 1533 STATE STREn e PHONE 959-4977 Mon. -Fri. 8:30 to 5:30 Sat. 8:30 to 12:00 Nell Eurich and the Educational policy committee been been fighting for, if not to get rid of the confusion? At every meeting we have com plained about the lack of organization, at the mass of committees whose roles are unclear, at the absence of channels for constructive action, at the delays and incompleteness and faculty observers can verify this claim. The Trustees can not effectively run a college by meeting three times a year; they desperately need an administrator to lead and make recommendat1ons to them for action. For what possible purpose could they desffe -more confusion? So that their JOb at meetings or at fund-raising is even more frustrating? Absurd! In the course of two years I have gotten to know most of New College's Trustees quite welL I.assure you that they are sincere people, conscientiously working to help the school, not hurt it. I have found them, as a group, to be more concerned with NC's ideals and realities than most students.
