November 20, 1970 Continued f;om page 1 THE POLEM IC Paae 6 month 's appearance at " the hu ngry i" in San Francisco. Life Magazine named Ma lcolm Boyd "one of the ·100 most important young men a-nd women in t he United States"; Mademoiselle included him in its famed -iist of "Disturbers of the Peace"; · Newsweek gave him the t itle ;'the communications priest"; the San Francisco Chronicle called him "the esp~esso · priest" and the Wash ington Post identified him as " spokesman for · aliented generation". A " Freedom Rider" in 1961, Father Boyd worked in a freedom house in McComb, Mississippi , in 1964, and in the deep south with the Student Non- violent Coordinating Committee in 1965. His series of articles on civil rights in 1956 received the Catholic Press Association prize for journalism. Following the Pentagon " Peace Mass " Malcolm Boyd wrote a guest colu~n entitled "Topics: The Ameri- can Church Takes to the Streets," on the editorial page of the New York Times. He noted: "One fact is indis- putable : the image c,f religion has changed. Pope John has come and gone, pumping hardy peasant blood into d ry art eries. Rabbis have lived in Mississippe freedom houses . French worker-priests and other modern pro- phets have fused the sacred and the secular . Clergymen have been tried and ja iled as socio-pol itical protesters. The church is a lways healthiest when it is responding, in genu ine crises and con- t roversary, to honest tensions in the life of the world . An alive church will increasingly find its alter from Washington to Ma in Street, its holiest people ordina ry men and women who care about each other and other people (and so , about God), and its social action placing its ow n body n the line insepa rable fro m the life it is always talkin g a bo ut in pulpits." Infor mation concerning ticket prices, t imes of performances, and location of performances will be re- leased to the pu bl ic shortly. Colorado Students Fight Censorship PUEBLO, Colo. (CPS) --- The Associated Student Government of South Colorado StateCollege in Pueblo has voted unanimously to appropriate funds for a special four,page publica- tion to inform the student body of the administration's censorship ()f the student newspaper, The Arrow. The alternative paper, to be called The Shaft, will be edited by the form- Editor and Managing Editor of The Arrow. The action came in the wake of the re, , '.>val of the Managing Editor, Dorothy Trujillo, and the subsequent resignation of the editor, Teddy lncerto . The removal of Miss Trujillo was a result of a long-time feud between The Arrow editorial staff and the faculty of the Mass Communications department of SCSC. "It's time for a legal war against the administration," announced one student senator at the meeting. "I believe we were lied to by the adminis- trat ion about censorship of The Arrow," said student body President Ron Schon . "It's a clearcut violation of freedom of the press, and the student govern- ment will stand behind The Arrow and use all of its resources to fight for it," Schon was particularly disturbed by the administration's refusal to meet with the Student Government and discuss the matter before the meeting. The student government also dis- cussed other alternatives including possible legal action. The Shaft will contain complete transcripts of the censored material from the Arrow, as well as in -depth coverage of the incident to date. Miss Trujillo's removal was prompted by her refusal to change an editorial that was to appear in the Friday, Oct. 16 edition of the paper. Miss Trujillo has been required to present all "contro- versial" material to a faculty advisor before publication since early Sept. The editorial that was censored con- demned the administration.

Roll Continued from page l The pass-fa il option was not offered until fall 1969, then on an experimen- tal basis for t hree years. Its use increased markedly during spring semester, 1969-70, when NIU officials ruled that two. instead of one as stated in the catalog, courses could be taken under the pass-fail option. Generally , cou rses in a student's major field are excluded, with exceptions. The office of Dr. Ernest E. Hanson, vice-president, St udent Personnel Ser- vices announced t he 3.5 "dean's list." The 3 .5 represents a "B" plus under Northern's grad ing system. Instructors are not informed as t o which students have elected the pass-fail option. The instructors eva luate the students under the regula r NIU grading system. Career Club T he body shirr of the- year. Verrical & horizonral stripes meet to give a smart mitred effect.
