Abstract

In April 1968, President Willis D. Weatherford appointed an ad-hoc committee with the charge of studying various aspects of student life at Berea and recommending to the Cabinet and Faculty modifications and improvements in current policies and practices (including judicial procedures). The Committee on Student Life included student members and served under the chairmanship of Martha Pride. Committee work resulted in a final report containing recommendations for a revised system of rules and regulations, a revised judicial system, and an assessment of campus life. The report also recommended proposals concerned with the quality of student life, student-faculty relations, the commitment of the College to its basic goals, administrative procedures and officers, and the methods and quality of instruction.
