Irish clash to be topic
John Burton, director of the Center for the Analysis of Conflict at University College, London, will discuss the “Conflict in Northern Ireland” at the Great Issues Forum, Wednesday at noon in Bovard Auditorium.
Burton, a world-recognized authority on international relations, has recently conducted inquiries and researched the current conflict in Northern Ireland.
He is visiting the university this week as the second of USC’s Raubenheimer Fellows.
These fellowships bring distinguished scholars and world leaders to USC to meet and speak to students, faculty and administrators.
The designation honors Dr. Albert S. Raubenheimer, academic vice-president emeritus and former dean of the College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences.
Burton has been prominent in world politics for over three decades for his roles in peacemaking efforts. In 1945, he was the delegate from his native Australia to the United Nations Charter Conference and a delegate to the Paris Peace Conference the following year.

U.S. panels suggest governance changes
By PETER WONG Staff Writer (Editor’s note: This is the fifth in a series on university governance.)
Two major presidential commissions have made only the most general recommendations about decision-making processes in the nation's universities, staying clear of specific solutions.
However, the reports of both commissions stress two points—the need for a more effective governance system that will unite the elements of a university. and the need for increased student participation in such a system
For the past three years, USC has been working to develop a formal decision-making structure that will offer
adequate representation for all groups— students, faculty, deans, administrators and trustees—yet will be able to determine policies.
In 1969. the University Senate and the Council of Deans submitted separate proposals for governance. Then a committee was formally appointed in February, 1970, by Norman Topping, then university president, to develop a master plan for governance.
But after that first committee, which was headed by Paul Hadley, dean of University College and Summer Session, delivered its final report to President John R. Hubbard in June. Hubbard appointed another committee in September to seek alternative governance
models.
The second committee is headed by Henry Reining, dean of Von KleinSmid Center for International and Public Affairs. A report of the second committee may be finished and submitted to Hubbard by the end of the semester.
About the time, in November, 1969, that the University Senate and the Council of Deans submitted their governance proposals, the National Commission on the Causes and Prevention of Violence released its final report to the public, entitled “To Establish Justice, To Insure Domestic Tranquility.”
The commission was appointed by then U. S. President Lyndon B. John-son in June, 1968. shortly after the as-
sassination of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy of New York, who was seeking the Democratic presidential nomination.
Kennedy's death was the conclusion of a long spring of domestic violence. which included the murder of Dr. Martin Luther King, the civil rights leader; rioting in many of the nation’s cities, including Washington. D. C., and disruptions at Columbia University.
The commission was asked to examine the causes of violence and to come up with recommendations to curtail it.
So in its report in 1969, the commi-sion included one chapter on “Campus Disorder" and issued six recommendations for the nation's universities. _( Continued on page 6)
