Northeaster VOL. LII - No. 24 ews MAY 28, 1971 BOSTON, MASSACHUSETIS Coretta l(ing will ad 1 Mrs. Coretta Scott King will be the keynote speaker for North~ eastern University's 70th annual Commencement in the Boston Garden June 20. She will receive an honorary doctorate from the University at that time. Mrs. King, widow of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., has been acclaimed throughout the world as a leader in peace and civil rights. She is president of both the Martin Luther King, Jr. Foundation and The Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Center, the official family sanctioned memorial to her late husband. The Foundation and Memorial Center are located in Atlanta, Ga. A concert singer by profession, Mrs. King received her bachelor of arts degree from Antioch College in Ohio, and her bachelor's degree in music edu- Boston Police clear· Hemenway Street By MYRON BURTMAN A force of 150 riot-equipped Boston Police broke up another block party on Hemenway Street Tuesday night. The party was being held to celebrate the release of Black Panthers Bobby Seale and Erica Huggins. Leaflets had been distributed in the area Tuesday morning announcing the party and by 9:30 p.m. a crowd of about 100 people had gathered. They threw frisbees, tossed firecrackers, and drank wine but did not block traffic. Roman candles were shot off from the Northeastern mens dorms at 115-119 Hemenway St. and music came from stereo speakers placed in various windows along the street. The crowd continued to grow to a maximum size of 250 people and at 11:15 p.m. they moved onto Hemenway St., closing it from Gainsborough Street to Westland Avenue. From the alleys along Symphony Road boxes were dragged into the middle of the street and set afire. As a portion of the crowd danced around the fire, people continued to throw firecr~kers and rolls of toilet paper from buildings along the street. Various revolutionary slogans were painted on the walls. Three fire engines arriving ten minutes later at 11:25, were met with yippee yells and a shower of rocks and bottles. They stopped at the corner of Hemenway and Westland and waited for police to clear the street. (Continued on Page 2) s • seniors cation from the New England Conservatory of Music. Mrs. King married the late Dr. King on June 18, 1953, and occasionally substituted for her husband as a speaker. At the same time, she frequently appeared in her own right before church, civic, college, fraternal and peace groups across the nation, both as a speaker and as a concert artist. Mrs. King is responsible for the "Freedom Concert,'' a form which she developed and performs as her own confl:ibution to the Civil Rights Movt.-.ent. The Freedom Concert combines prose and poetry narration with music in order to present the history of the movement. Author of numerous articles, Mrs. King is the author of the national best-seller, "My Life With Martin Luther King, Jr." She is also credited with playing a key role in making possible the production of the documentary film, "King: From Montgomery to Memphis." Mrs. King is a member of the Board of Directors of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, of which her late husband was the founding president. She is the first woman to preach at a Statutory Service, St. Paul's Cathedral, London, England, (1969). The mother of four children, Mrs. King resides in Atlanta. She will address more than 4,000 Northeastern graduates and 15,000 invited guests during the afternoon ceremonies. - Judy Saykin WEARY TRAVELE RS stop to refresh themselves in a local tavern as a disapproving nun looks on dur· ing Saturday's performance of Canterbury Tales by Silver Masque. See Stu Robbins' review on page 6. Pres. Knowles a~is on finances for blacks By ILEEN DOTSON President Knowles announced at a meeting in his office with black student representatives last Friday that "the university wishes to make clear its continued commitment to the black students who have been admitted with financial aid. "The university will pay tuition to all currently enrolled black students of the Basic Colleges who demonstrate need and meet the minimum academic requirements of their college." Other "educationally related costs'' which includes fees, books, room· and board will be met by the university to the extent that university finances and government assistance pennits. The announcement followed a meeting of the Board of Trustee,s Committee on Student Affairs and thirteen black student representatives at 10:30 a.m. at the Parker House. Financial aid guidelines for black students entering in September were also established. . The university has extended the number of Martin' Luther King (MLK) Scholars from 50 to 200. Of the 200,' only 50 are guaranteed tuition, room, board, and ot4er edu-· cationally related costs. The other 150 will be granted aid according to need and available resources. The Trustees also decided that all black students, including those presently enrolled and incoming freshmen, will not graduate with a total loan debt exceeding $3,000. (Continued on Page 2) �Page 2 Northeastern NEWS, May 28, 1971 - ------- - - - Financial aid. • • her, eight members of the Board of Trustees were present with Pres. Knowles. Al the Friday meeting, with student representatives to discuss the decision uf the Board, Pres. Knowles stressed that "we will hav to raise as much money as we can for this purpose. We will have to find additional resources. We are not taking a pot of gold off the shelf." (Continued from Page 1) A black student may waive this right and receive a maximum loan limit of $5,000. Guidelines for determining the 200 MLK scholars will be worked out by a committee including black students. The final document is being formulated for ratification by the black student representatives. A statement answering quesiions from the black student representatives about the Trustees' decision reads, "It is our earnest hope that we will develop a viable working relationship between black student representatives and the administration. We shall plan to review with the representatives of the black student c o m m u n i t y any significant changes in freshman grants or commitments to incoming freshman. The number of MLK scholars might go down or it might increase depending on fegeral support." Dean Gilbert MacDonald, vicepresident of student affairs, read the answer of the Trustees to the students. When asked if the tuition commitment was applicable to full-time students, MacDonald replied, "This covers co-op students unless a student chooses not to go on co-op. "Full-time students are special. Arrangements have to be worked out with the financial aid department. Only black co-op students are guaranteed tuition paid until they graduate." Pres. Knowles commended the students on behalf of the Board of Trustees. "You stated your case well. The Trustees said that they were quite impressed." Before the students exited, Pres. Knowles assured them that the university is interested in them. The black student representatives expressed their appreciation to Pres. Knowles. They felt that a start toward an understanding between black students and the administration had been reached. The student representatives requested that they review the financial outlook with the administration in May of every year. President Knowles said that it could be arranged. Special efforts arc also being made to change the procedure in the financial aid office whereby students are notified of their financial situation a few weeks before the quarter begins. Besides the thirteen representatives and a black faculty mem- - Judy Saykin A SPECIAL PRE-REGISTRATION will be held on Thursday, June 3, for all those who failed to register and want to avoid the lines on registration day. The light turnout during the past two weeks has prompt· ed the Registrar's Office to add the extra day. Fall and Winter quarter registration will take place in the Ballroom from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. LA considers optional finals By DAVE ANDERSON A proposal to eliminate obligatory final written examinations has been passed by the Curriculum Committee of the College of Liberal Arts. The Committee has approved, "that the University policy on obligatory written final examinations be discontinued and that the decision of giving final examinations be the prerogative of the faculty in charge of the course." The new policy, if passed by the Faculty Senate, would give each instructor in the College of Liberal Arts the option of not giving a final written exam. The policy may eventually become University-wide. The committee's reason for the new policy is that the mandatory final exam does not allow the instructor complete freedom in structuring his course. At pres· ent, instructors choose required reading, and prepare or schedule any exams that they wish to administer. The obligatory final exam is the only area of course structuring where the instructor is forced to confonn to university policy. While the final exam does summarize the material for the student, the committee points out that the same end can be reached news briefs UNICOM project Draft filibuster On Saturday, UNIOOM is taking 30 disadvantaged children from the Ellis Memorial Settlement House to the Museum of Science in Boston. They are looking for six students to act as chaperones. If interested contact UNICOM in 256EC.

Northeaster VOL. LII - No. 24 ews MAY 28, 1971 BOSTON, MASSACHUSETIS Coretta l(ing will ad 1 Mrs. Coretta Scott King will be the keynote speaker for North~ eastern University's 70th annual Commencement in the Boston Garden June 20. She will receive an honorary doctorate from the University at that time. Mrs. King, widow of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., has been acclaimed throughout the world as a leader in peace and civil rights. She is president of both the Martin Luther King, Jr. Foundation and The Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Center, the official family sanctioned memorial to her late husband. The Foundation and Memorial Center are located in Atlanta, Ga. A concert singer by profession, Mrs. King received her bachelor of arts degree from Antioch College in Ohio, and her bachelor's degree in music edu- Boston Police clear· Hemenway Street By MYRON BURTMAN A force of 150 riot-equipped Boston Police broke up another block party on Hemenway Street Tuesday night. The party was being held to celebrate the release of Black Panthers Bobby Seale and Erica Huggins. Leaflets had been distributed in the area Tuesday morning announcing the party and by 9:30 p.m. a crowd of about 100 people had gathered. They threw frisbees, tossed firecrackers, and drank wine but did not block traffic. Roman candles were shot off from the Northeastern mens dorms at 115-119 Hemenway St. and music came from stereo speakers placed in various windows along the street. The crowd continued to grow to a maximum size of 250 people and at 11:15 p.m. they moved onto Hemenway St., closing it from Gainsborough Street to Westland Avenue. From the alleys along Symphony Road boxes were dragged into the middle of the street and set afire. As a portion of the crowd danced around the fire, people continued to throw firecr~kers and rolls of toilet paper from buildings along the street. Various revolutionary slogans were painted on the walls. Three fire engines arriving ten minutes later at 11:25, were met with yippee yells and a shower of rocks and bottles. They stopped at the corner of Hemenway and Westland and waited for police to clear the street. (Continued on Page 2) s • seniors cation from the New England Conservatory of Music. Mrs. King married the late Dr. King on June 18, 1953, and occasionally substituted for her husband as a speaker. At the same time, she frequently appeared in her own right before church, civic, college, fraternal and peace groups across the nation, both as a speaker and as a concert artist. Mrs. King is responsible for the "Freedom Concert,'' a form which she developed and performs as her own confl:ibution to the Civil Rights Movt.-.ent. The Freedom Concert combines prose and poetry narration with music in order to present the history of the movement. Author of numerous articles, Mrs. King is the author of the national best-seller, "My Life With Martin Luther King, Jr." She is also credited with playing a key role in making possible the production of the documentary film, "King: From Montgomery to Memphis." Mrs. King is a member of the Board of Directors of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, of which her late husband was the founding president. She is the first woman to preach at a Statutory Service, St. Paul's Cathedral, London, England, (1969). The mother of four children, Mrs. King resides in Atlanta. She will address more than 4,000 Northeastern graduates and 15,000 invited guests during the afternoon ceremonies. - Judy Saykin WEARY TRAVELE RS stop to refresh themselves in a local tavern as a disapproving nun looks on dur· ing Saturday's performance of Canterbury Tales by Silver Masque. See Stu Robbins' review on page 6. Pres. Knowles a~is on finances for blacks By ILEEN DOTSON President Knowles announced at a meeting in his office with black student representatives last Friday that "the university wishes to make clear its continued commitment to the black students who have been admitted with financial aid. "The university will pay tuition to all currently enrolled black students of the Basic Colleges who demonstrate need and meet the minimum academic requirements of their college." Other "educationally related costs'' which includes fees, books, room· and board will be met by the university to the extent that university finances and government assistance pennits. The announcement followed a meeting of the Board of Trustee,s Committee on Student Affairs and thirteen black student representatives at 10:30 a.m. at the Parker House. Financial aid guidelines for black students entering in September were also established. . The university has extended the number of Martin' Luther King (MLK) Scholars from 50 to 200. Of the 200,' only 50 are guaranteed tuition, room, board, and ot4er edu-· cationally related costs. The other 150 will be granted aid according to need and available resources. The Trustees also decided that all black students, including those presently enrolled and incoming freshmen, will not graduate with a total loan debt exceeding $3,000. (Continued on Page 2) �Page 2 Northeastern NEWS, May 28, 1971 - ------- - - - Financial aid. • • her, eight members of the Board of Trustees were present with Pres. Knowles. Al the Friday meeting, with student representatives to discuss the decision uf the Board, Pres. Knowles stressed that "we will hav to raise as much money as we can for this purpose. We will have to find additional resources. We are not taking a pot of gold off the shelf." (Continued from Page 1) A black student may waive this right and receive a maximum loan limit of $5,000. Guidelines for determining the 200 MLK scholars will be worked out by a committee including black students. The final document is being formulated for ratification by the black student representatives. A statement answering quesiions from the black student representatives about the Trustees' decision reads, "It is our earnest hope that we will develop a viable working relationship between black student representatives and the administration. We shall plan to review with the representatives of the black student c o m m u n i t y any significant changes in freshman grants or commitments to incoming freshman. The number of MLK scholars might go down or it might increase depending on fegeral support." Dean Gilbert MacDonald, vicepresident of student affairs, read the answer of the Trustees to the students. When asked if the tuition commitment was applicable to full-time students, MacDonald replied, "This covers co-op students unless a student chooses not to go on co-op. "Full-time students are special. Arrangements have to be worked out with the financial aid department. Only black co-op students are guaranteed tuition paid until they graduate." Pres. Knowles commended the students on behalf of the Board of Trustees. "You stated your case well. The Trustees said that they were quite impressed." Before the students exited, Pres. Knowles assured them that the university is interested in them. The black student representatives expressed their appreciation to Pres. Knowles. They felt that a start toward an understanding between black students and the administration had been reached. The student representatives requested that they review the financial outlook with the administration in May of every year. President Knowles said that it could be arranged. Special efforts arc also being made to change the procedure in the financial aid office whereby students are notified of their financial situation a few weeks before the quarter begins. Besides the thirteen representatives and a black faculty mem- - Judy Saykin A SPECIAL PRE-REGISTRATION will be held on Thursday, June 3, for all those who failed to register and want to avoid the lines on registration day. The light turnout during the past two weeks has prompt· ed the Registrar's Office to add the extra day. Fall and Winter quarter registration will take place in the Ballroom from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. LA considers optional finals By DAVE ANDERSON A proposal to eliminate obligatory final written examinations has been passed by the Curriculum Committee of the College of Liberal Arts. The Committee has approved, "that the University policy on obligatory written final examinations be discontinued and that the decision of giving final examinations be the prerogative of the faculty in charge of the course." The new policy, if passed by the Faculty Senate, would give each instructor in the College of Liberal Arts the option of not giving a final written exam. The policy may eventually become University-wide. The committee's reason for the new policy is that the mandatory final exam does not allow the instructor complete freedom in structuring his course. At pres· ent, instructors choose required reading, and prepare or schedule any exams that they wish to administer. The obligatory final exam is the only area of course structuring where the instructor is forced to confonn to university policy. While the final exam does summarize the material for the student, the committee points out that the same end can be reached news briefs UNICOM project Draft filibuster On Saturday, UNIOOM is taking 30 disadvantaged children from the Ellis Memorial Settlement House to the Museum of Science in Boston.
