Values clarification program to be offered by R.P�S. Part two of . the R.P.S. student and community de velopment in residence halls program is nearing initiation. This phase of the five-part development program deals with values clarification. Ellen Dagon and Al Alberts, (both Head Resi dents), initially wrote the outline_ for the program, and submitted the proposal to the Ford Foundation for fund ing. After slight revision, the proposal was accepted by the Ford Foundation, and the actual programming of the series began, with the aid of Larry Cox, assistant Profes sor of Psychology, and John Crandall, Director of Con cord Counseling Service. According to the proposal
written by Dagon and Al berts, the Values Clarifica tion Workshop will "provide a series of exercises which give students the chance to look at themselves indiviually from a different perspective.. that they will begin to identify their own values system." The program will also "provide students with an opportunity for increased appreciation of their person al future and a chance for them to intelligently plan for it by choosing. value-enhanc ing behavior." Ellen Dagon explains that a values clarification work shop is not a new device, but is new to the Otterbein Campus-. She adds that this program is not similar to the
previous Human Sexuality Program. This workshop is to provide a personal one-to one communication between individuals. Mr. Alberts asserted that in our society we are no longer limited in our goal orientation. There is a vast number of goals to choose from, and we "want to be clear on the alternatives." He stressed that this is an individualized program, but that it can be geared for any number of students and faculty members. Mr. Al berts adds that in this workshop faculty and stu dents will be treated as EQUALS. The following is a schedule of the Values Clarification Program: Thursday, April 10,7:30 pm LeMay Lecture Hall,Science Building "Birth" and "Death" required for dessert.
