| Abstract | One of the most fervent debates at the University of Kansas (KU) during the Vietnam War played out in the University Registrar's Office. During this period, James K. Hitt held the dual role of university registrar and Selective Service Representative: he used his position as registrar to inform the military of students' grades and class standings for draft deferment eligibility. The duality of Hitt's role became widely unpopular and spurred debate among faculty and administration as to the appropriateness of KU's cooperation with the Selective Service and the broader military establishment. The duality of the role coalesced toward a unique tension between academic and student affairs as it was believed by many to be both unethical and the cause of unintended academic consequences. Tension between some KU faculty members and the registrar arose when Selective Service deferment criteria altered the registrar's role and clouded issues related to student learning. This instance offers an opportunity to reflect on academic and student affairs' shared role in advancing higher education's mission of fostering student learning. (ERIC). |
