Tht following is the texi of the resolutions adopletJ yester

day by tlte College faailty.

The follouínj. rc.'itihitkitis m-t-c p-ts.sed ut the meet-

    of Ihe Faculty of Columbia  College on Sundtiy,

5 May 19BR:

THAT, This  Faculty endorse.s the worlt of the Exe-

cutive Committee tind  of the  Joint Disciplinary

Committee,  which are  eharged  with the restruc-

turing of the  constitution of the University and of the

University's  díĸci.iliiur) pnicesse.., This Faculty

rct.m'.-i', these coi
 

             The  S.rikt-

   Today,' at the request of the Collegc

 faculty,  instructors wĩll begín  meeting

 with their students within the framework

 of  the  regular  class schedule,  but wĩth

 new  intentions.  The request came as

 a reaction  to the efforts of the striking

 students who will  be picketing in  front

 oí  every clas-.room  building urging stu-

 dents and faculty not to enter.



   In one sense the  stríke has an ironic

 effect in partially  thwarting the devel-

 opment   of  a   student-faculty dlalogue

 which is one of its  implicit ends.  We

 find ourselves  ín the awkward  position

 of  supporting the type ol' meetings be-

 tween teachers and their students that

 the College  facuíty is  fostering, and

 nt  the  same time of also supporting the

 efforts of the student strikers.

   The  way  out,  however,  is  not too

 diffícult  if we  consider the purposes  of

 the strike.   The strategy of  the strike

 is  based on the fear thatwithout main-

 taining the  pressure the Universĩty will

 silently  slip back to the status quo ante.

 Many power-invested administrators nc

 doubt wish  that everyone would go  home

 for the  summer and come  back molli-

 t'íed  next fall.   The strike is a  crude

 though effcctive way of keeping the ad-

 ministration aware of theneedfor change

 by boycotting all activities it sponsors.'

   If  students and faculty members plan

 to  meet  today ín   a  new  environmenĩ

 outside  the static  classroomsetting—ori

 the lawns,  irv  "do.rmitories, or in pro-

 fessors''apartments—they will, by tacít

irespect  for the strike,  be  successfully

 maintaining ;tt  least a  threshhold pres-

 sure upon  the  administration,  And  :it

 the same  time they  will  be fulfilling

 their  obligatĩons  to create  a dialogue

 and  discussion that will help  lead  the

 University from the  doldrums of thepast

 few  years  to a new educational  atmo-

 sphere  where  classes  are  founded on

 commun intercst and nol on administrii-

 tive  dictate.    The  net  effect" Of having

 stopped the normal functjons of the l'ni-

 versíty on its downward track wíll  inthe

 end  only serve to  uplift  Columbía  to

 the future.

    But, the  strike  should noî  be viewed

 as  a  dead-end, or.  as  a tactic unto it-

 self.   Those  who   are  striking have  a

 great  task  in  the  coming weeks and

 months of organi_-.íngfor thecomingyear,

 There  is  not only  work  to be done  on

 restructuring,  but plans must be  made

 now to devise other  techniques of apply-

 ing pressure beyond simple slrike tac-

 tics.   We  see  our support of  the strike,.

 then,  only as a means  of  moving from

 the total  hal't today to a  fruitlul   ,pro

 gressitm lomoriw.
