DEAR!!! MR. EDITOR

ruE QUILL

you really want to use it?"Roger 'Williams students are not

traveling en masse to the Pentagonor staging sit-ins In the office of thecollege president. Yet that does NOTmean they are not concerned aboutwhat Is happening st their college.In their state and in their country.

They are members of what couldbe termed .ITheForgottenMajority.JtThey don't make much noise butthey possess a vast amount of power.The leaders of our school govern­ments realize this potential Qut itis up to you s"tudents to make yourfeelings known.

Therefore we offer the Quill asthe medium through which this vastpctentl81 may be united. The Quillbelongs to the entire student bodynot only to a select segment. Weencourage your comments and yourcriticism and ask your help. TheQuill. like Roger Williams Itself,is eXperimenting; what you see infront of you is by no means per­fection. merely an improvement.

One final note to the faculty andadministration; taking pride in theability to listen .to problema canonly be surpasaed by taking" pridein Helping To Solve These Prob­lems.

is to be expected, but also unfair tomembers of a commuting college.

On OCtober 10th TH E QUILL senta memo to Dr. Way, Dean Douglas.and Mr. Nelson exprse8lng !be oon­cern of some of last yeare studenteand faculty whose efforts are beinghandicapped by the achedule. In thatmemo THE QUILL also proposed apossible solution.

Since that time, THE QUILL bastalked with Mr. Nelson and dis­covered that a free period from11-12 noon can be created on t'M>or all five days of the week: by start­ing all morning classes on thosedays half an hour earlier and by Dear Editor.moving classes in the afternoon up l..a3t Monday 1 wasooeofthiny

We appologize for the fact thatit has taken us 80 long to publishour first edition. Not only THE QUILL,but all of last years activities arehaving trouble getling organized. Fora change the problem Is due notto student apathy; but to a seriousoversight on the part of the collegeadministration.

Last year' the administration didtheir part by provldlng s free per­Iod (Mondsy-WedneBday-F rl day.from 12:30-1:30) during which 811students and their faculty advisorswere free to attend school organ­Izations and activities. \\'by was this.free period excluded this year?

The la<ek of providing a time inthe schedule for activities is selfdefeating not only to the function­ing of Roger Williams. but to itsoverall purpose. The statement in.the college handbook (p36) on theuimportance of extra curricular act­ivities &8 a part of the overall col­lege experience", suddenly becomesmeaningless.

'Ibat the college i8 DOt function­Ing properly has a!reBdy made it­self evident. The fBcuity are havingdlffIcuI1y meeting. (the deportmentbeads had to meet at 8:30 AM. Mon­dsy) and we are al.re8dy In our six­th ..- of school and as yet haveno student councU. ~ ._

Even when the council is electedat what time will they be able toget together? If meetlngs are heldduring the ·day bow can the student,granting he is allowed to cut a con-

fiictlng class, participate in bis stu­dent government Without being shortch~ on bis classroom "education?

That the student council and otherorganizations might meet late In theafternoon or in the evening is notonly unrealistic. U good attendaooe

ViewpointLife is a changing process; so with

that philosophy In mind the Quill hasundergone a transformation vmJ.ch wehope' will prove to be beneficial toboth Roger WilliamS College and mostimportant to the students of thisinstitution.

For mer Quill readers probablynoticed the change the moment theyset eyes on today's edition. But theexterior' appearance Is not the onlynew facet of the Quill. Nor is itactually the most important.

The most significant aspect of thisnew venture is the very philosophyupon which the Quill Is hullt. Andthatis communications between the stu­dent body and the admlnistration.

The administration has assuredus the paper belongs to the studentsand therefore there Will be absolutelyNOJorm of censorship. We are takingthem at their word. No member ofthe administration Will receive acopy of the Quill before' it reachesthe bands of the students.

Th1s then creates a responsibilityon the part of the students. It isnow your responsibility to make yourfeeUngs known. No longer can youcomplain that the door of the ad­ministrative office is always lockedto students. You now have the keyto that door; the question Is, liDo
