Building name changes
the   FSC  Public  Affairs Committee snnounoed it was
ssek ing suggestions from tho campus ond community for the renaming ©f buildings on campus. Hopefully tho committee's members will
take Into consideration the problems this could greats.
Wtrile th* naming of buildings after outstanding administrators and
statesmen is common st mony older colleges and universities in the
country, tho practice is traditional, not functional.
Tha name ohonge would probably cost guite • bit of money, st o
time when Fresno State can't afford such o luxury. Signs, forms,
mops and booklets would ail hsve to be cru*nged.
Present studonts would hove no problem adiusting to new names-
' Ignore them end continue using the old names.
mr, emuld be continually confused by the use of
•urtoffIcier* old names ond ths use of new ones.
FSC's Keats Csmpus Building is s esse in point. Most students,
espocislly before it wax converted to classroom use, knew it only as
tho old bookstore. The initials KCR in the Schedule of Courses cause
considerable confusion.
Think ©f the registration problems thst would be crested if 30
buildings on campus hod new names next semester.
It therefore seems almost pointless to spend time and money changing building names when everyone will probably continue using the
present, practical names to avoid useless confusion.

On th* occasion of being taken,
with due Victorian solemnity, to
view Niagara Falls, Oacar Wilde
gazed for a moment, turned and
remarked that th*y would have
been more impressive If they
flowed the other way.
One could have the some view
about Campus Colloquy. Here
again is the professor talking at
the students "Colloquy* ls from
th* Latin (and for that matter, tho
French) and denotes above aU
els* exchange of views. There ls
a penumbral association with the
term "colloquial" with Its implications of relaxed and Informal
exchange. When do the students
get to spook''
I sm serious In this question,
snd am not trying to please anybody In aaking II. A mayor difficulty university professors hsve
had in recent yesrs Is that of
judging just what is studsnt opinion   and  what   are  Its   sources.

There ore, of course, msny opinions, just as there are many students This reality wss rsther
overwhelmed In the middle of the
1940o by tho intense passions of
what may hsve been s minority
of student bodies, but which wax
nonetheless a minority that carried the majority with It as, for
example, in the spring of 1970
when we experienced the first
nationwide student strike over the
Cambodian "Incursion."
A good deal Is known about this
minority. (It does appear to bo
that) Sociologists such xav Soy-
more Martin Llpset hsve studied
them, snd they hove not failed
to study themselves. The picture
of the "best" students, from the
"best* families, in the "best"
colleges snd universities Is well
established. But why this elite
group should have turned against
so msny of the Institutions and
values of the society just when
they did is not nearly so oosy s
question The presumption that
this was a response to war abroad
and injustice at home Is a reasonable one, and most of us would
share theae elite views on these
specific questions, Whst troubles
social scientists is the fact that
such similar outbursts of anger
and rage occurred In nations as
disparate aa France and Japan
in almost the ssme period. The
same groups seem to have been
Involved, the ssme tactics, much
of the same outcomes, but totally
different Issues.
Professor John M. O'Kxne has
recently suggested that what moot
disturbs th* "best off" young
persons in our universities and
colleges is the reallr-otlon thst
