Dear Sir:

As a student of this
University, I was grossly
insulted by Dean Titus's letter
in last Thursday's C.D. Does he
take us for fools that we
should be taken in by his
delight in the "recent interest
shown in the residence
program"? This is the same
man who sought to impose his
program on us by executive
fiat. Where was his "delight" in
our interest then? He never
asked anyone to see if they
were interested.

Another neat about-face
was executed by Mr. Titus
when he declared that he felt
sure that "the combined
efforts of all will benefit the
residents". To be sure, Mr.
Titus would never have made
that statement unless his past
dictatorial actions had been
discredited by an outraged
University community.

Mr. Titus seems very intent
on covering his past actions. I
think he is looking towards
next year for a legitimate
sanctioning of his ouster of the
Resident Advisors, who have
been very troublesome to him.
He will doubtless try to appear
as the very embodiment of
reason. Let's not forget that
Mr. Titus is a small-minded
administrator whose idea of a
good counselling program is
organizational efficiency. 'We've
had enough of bureaucrats and
their bureaucracy. Dean Titus,
take the hint.
