tl19730411-006 "April 10, 1973 Towerlight, Towson State College Page 7 Minority relations dean appointed by Kathy Hennegan Julius Chapman, director of the Towson Opportunity Program (TOP), has been appointed Associate Dean for Minority Relations by Dr. Kenneth A. Shaw, Vice President for Academic Affairs at Towson State. Chapman feels that his new position will ""fill the gap"" between minority students and the services available to everyone on campus. He believes that many minority students are not aware of these services. Chapman will coordinate the academic experiences of minority students in all phases of college life and serve as a mediary between the academic deans and departments and the black community. .Noting that three-fourths of ' all Towson students are not aware of the opportunities available to them at the college, Chapman said he wants to help minority students ""break out of the traditional mold"" most of them are in. He hopes to make them ""aware of the opportunities in the wider world of work."" Chapman went on to say that the special problems of the minority could be solved with minimum difficulty if better Court rules on freedom The Supreme Court has ruled that constitutionally granted press freedoms cannot be denied by state colleges and universities under the guise of state or student government censorship of the newspaper. In a six to three decision, the court rejected the premise that state institutions have some special power to regulate the free expression of ideas by their students. In an unsigned opinion, the majority stated that ""the mere dissemination of ideas, no matter how offensive to good taste, on a state university campus may not be closed off."" The suit, by Barbara Papish, a graduate student at the University of Missouri who was dismissed from the university in 1969 after distributing an underground newspaper on campus which university officials considered ""obscene,"" reached the high court after being upheld by the U.S. Court of Appeals in St. Louis. In reversing the lower court ruling, the justices said that the First Amendment ""leaves no room for the operation of a dual standard in the academic community with respect to the content of speech."" Representatives of ACLU expect the decision to have some effect on the hundreds of college newspapers nationwide which have some sort of censorship imposed on them by either their administration or their student government.
