I ask you to recall the fundamental fact that our name and o u r traditions associate us with one of the most i m portant epochs in the history of the Ch ristian C h u rch, the Luth eran Reformation. We have not asked non-L utherans to accept Lutheran dogmas. We have, however, in the Reformation s p i r­ it, sought to expose a l l students to the vital necessity of th inking about the essen­ tial val ues and bel iefs of Ch ristians: and we have sought to expose you to and to teach you something about the vital neces­ sity to the C h ristian of the im portance of comm u nity wors h i p .

I want to rec a l l a few of the fundam ent­ als which h ave wa rranted our inviting you to be students at Pacific Lutheran Uni­ ve rs ity . T h e pu rpose o f this institution i s un­ usual. It was cha rtered to offer an educa­ tion w ithin the framework of commitment to the Christian Gospel-the same Gospel s u m marized in the words of St. John. O u r founding fathers h a d never heard o f mole­ cular theory or sol id state physics or Bar­ thian th eology; but they knew someth i ng about education, and they believed that education and the Gospel of Jesus C h rist a re compatible. Regardless of the enormous explosions in learning which have occu rred since PLU's birthday in 1890, those of us who administer the Un iversity today in a world characterized by cataclysmic change, bes­ tial violence, and a spirit of rebellion, sti l l believe that the h u man minds w h ich God has c reated do not or cannot transcend

Working drawings for a new physical edu­ cation building, featuring a 3,500-seat auditorium and fieldhouse, are being pre­ pared by Robert Bitlsbrough Price, F.A.I.A., Tacoma architectural firm. It is expected that construction will begin by October 1. Pac·ific Lutheran University's 'Board of Regents named the $1.4 million structure in honor of Clifford O. Olson, former PLU coach and athletic director. I,t will be built on the lower campus next to the swimming pool. Completion is ex­ pected by the start of fall classes in 1968. The project will be financed by a Higher Education Facilities Act grant of $424,400, and public support. The multi-purpose building will be used for varsity basketball games, intramural sports and health and physical education classes. Fold-away bleachers and mov­ able chairs will provide maximum ultiliza­ tion of floor space. Acoustical engineering, designed with­ out exposed beams, will provide high fidel­ ity reproduction of both music and speech. The auditorium's floor, like the entire buildil1g, will accommodate many func­ tions. The floor will have a newly-devel­ oped synthetic covering that will be usable for athletics, dances, and other activities. The fieldhouse-originally scheduled to be bui,lt as one of the last steps in PLU's master plan-will be incorporated in the physical eduGation building. It is an 80 by 116-foot extension with a 250-foot ceiling. Its dirt floor will make the fieldhouse suitable for football, base­ ball, track practices, and other "outdoor" sports during inclement weather. In addition to the fieldhouse and audi­ torium, the structure will house: seven classrooms, a wrestling-gymnastics room, three handball courts and one squash court, a weight training room, faculty off,jces, reception and concession area,

In all, the record book still has 28 en­ tries established during Olson's tenure as head football coach. But football wasn't Olson's only sport. His three-year record (1938-41) as basket­ ball coach against four-year teams is the best winning record in the school's history. His teams won 44 games and lost only 15. In 1941 his squad won the Washington Intercollegiate Conference title. Dave James, a Tacoma News Tribune sports writer during Olson's tenure, re­ cently said: "This recognition (of Olson) has long been deserved."

lockers, showers, and storage rooms. It was designed to complement the facil­ ities now available in Memorial Gymn­ asium, the swimming pool, golf course, tennis courts and athletic fields. In announcing the Board's decision to name the building after Clifford Olson, Dr. Robe rt A. l. Mortvedt, said: "Few men have had a more distinguished career in the field of teaching and coaching than Cliff Olson. His teams brought glory to a small college and to the City of Tacoma." During his 14 years as head football coach, Olson's teams won the Washington Intercollegiate Conference title three years in a row, 1939-41, and gained national recognition in the process. At one game a crowd of over 22,000 people filled the Tacoma Stadium to watch PLU def at Gon zaga University. Two of his star players in that three­ year era were Marv Tommervik and Marv received All-America Both Harshman. recognition. Tommervik, now a fuel oil dealer in Parkland, and Harshman, head basketball coach at Washington State University, to­ gether hold 25 PLU gridiron r ecords. While a coach Olson established the best record of any PLU mentor in the school's history 64 wins, 33 losses, and 6 ties - and had the school's longest win­ ning streak with 18.

"On occasions like this," said James, "when a good guy is getting a big honor, we like to sidle up and say we knew him, We like to bask in the warmth and pleasure.

"It is like this with Cliff Olson. He was big enough for Pacific Lutheran University when it was just a sprout and I'm filled with good feeling to see that an immensely successful school is big enough in heart and mind to remember its old coach who did so much to build what now has come to be." Olson is presently a Tacoma business­ man. Following his reSignation from PLU, he became manager of the Huth Estate in Tacoma. He held that pOSition for ten years before becoming manager of the Lake­ wood Center. He joined the PLU staff again in 1963, this time as an associate in development. Olson stayed until 1965 when he became manager of the Medical Arts Building in Tacoma. Thomas Anderson, president of Concrete Technology in Tacoma, is the general chairman of the pUblic-support drive for the building. Advisory members are Tom­ mervik, Harshman, James, and Earl Leub­ ker, sports editor of the TNT.

line. The contagion of this myopia h as infected American ideas and institutions, inc l u d in g , alas, many of our c h u rches and schools; and as American edu cation comes of age, we find ourselves severely handi­ capped by an intel lectual and scholarly isolationism that has perpetuated itself long after politic al and economic isol ation­ ism became untenable. As one who g rew up in the m i dst of an i m mig rant community surrounded by other immigrant comm unities, I. have often pon­ dered the i rony of the process of Ameri­ canization. When each of the national groups came to the New World, it g rew more ethnocentric than it had been in the mother cou ntry: rivalry between Norwe­ g i ans and Swedes was probably never as intense in Scand inavia as it became In M innesota. B u t with the grad ual assimila­ tion of the child ren and g randc h i ldren of the i m m i g rants , this ethnocentrism was re­ placed by the broadened , the broadening. sense of membership in the American fam­ ily. At the same time, however, assimila­ tion represented a narrowing of perspective and a shortening of vision, for it man­ aged to push beyond the American horizon some of the very riches which the i m m i ­ grants h a d carried in t h e i r packs. Sig­ nificantly, the recent "white bac klash" has been most powerful among the groups who arrived most recently. I t s i mply is not true, as the overworked phrase "the Amer­ i can melting pot" wou l d suggest, that each g roup of i m m i g rants contributed to Amer­ i c an cu lture the best that it had inhe rited from the Old Wo r l d , en rich ing the heirs of other cultu res with its distinctive contribu­ tion.

The most famous library of the ancient world, built by "Osymandyas" (probab ly Pha raoh Ramses II) more t h an three mil­ lennia ago, is reported by the later chron­ icler, Diadorus Sicu lus, to have borne the inscription: phyches iatreion, "a hospital for the sou l . " Whether or not the report is acc urate, the insc ription is certa inly apt. For in the America of the 20th century A. D . , no less than in the Egypt of the 13th century B . C . , a l ibrary can be a place to d iagnose, to treat, and perhaps even to cure diseases of the soul and the intellect. Indeed, the syndrome of the 20th century mani fests certain symptoms for w h i c h the most re l i able specific is the therapeutic power of the library. On such an occasion as this, a human i stic scholar can probably render no service more appropriate than to examine some of those diseases and to su ggest how the aca demic library may deal with them. I s h a l l concentrate my attention on two. Of a l l the diseases that beset us in the United States , none is more v i r u l ent than cultural myopia, the inability to look be­ yond the th ree-mile limit of ou r own coast-

Here In the Pacific Northwest, where you face Asia rather than Europe, you have special reason to break with the conventional pattern. As more and more colleges recognize the de­ sirability of extending the four-year course to include a year or more of study and service outside the United States, there will be infused into the academic life even of the undergraduate a new firsthand awareness of Asia and Africa. Better ways

A corollary of this situation has been a special indifference to those foreign cul­ tures with which American Iile has not had a historic connection. There Is a bon mot,

The barbed point of the wisecrack Is, however, that In most Amer­ ican communities and even in many Amer­ ican colleges the optimist would find It difficult to let his children take Russian and the pessimist would find it impossible

there must be more rapid, more wide­ spread, and hopefully more accurate trans­ lations of the best productions of the human mind and spirit, so that the orig­ inal text Is no longer a barrier even to those who will not, or perhaps cannot, compensate for their myopia with the cor­ rective lenses of an additional language. There is no excuse, for example, for a col­ lege curriculum In the area of religious studies that does not include the study of other scriptures than our own, not for the purpose of missions or of apologetics (both of which have their place, but not in lib­ eral arts), but for the purpose of combat­ ting ignorance and curing myopia.

to let them take Chinese. Chinese studies are at the stage today where Russian studies were twenty years ago, while Ger­ man and French continue to be the chief languages taught in colleges and de­ manded by graduate schools. Thus If American myopia is cured at all on the college campus, It Is usually cured in only one eye, that which looks across the At­ lantic, more precisely, across the North Atlantic. Pioneering programs in Asian cul­ ture have been doing much to correct this condition, but the pressure of events has been Increasing so much more rapidly than have our academic programs that cul­ tural myopia seems In many ways to be getting worse even in the American academy.

Perh aps i t is because I am p rofession­ ally charged with res po n s i b i l ity for the study o f the past , b u t the h istorical am­ nesia I see about me seems to me at least as fatal to the soul and i n te l lect as is c u l ­ tural myopia. T h e abso rptio n of h isto ry i nto "soc ial studies" in e le m e n t a ry and seco n d a ry schools h as produced an ignor­ ance of the past in some of t h e best and brightest of our col legians. Reciting the l itany that "you can't trust a n yone over thirty," they seem simultaneously to have lost touch with any tradition more than one generation old. No adolescent n eeds to be t o l d that he shou ld t h ink about him­ se l f and the p r obl em of his own Iden tity; that comes a l l too n atural l y. But he does need to be told that even in the midst of searching for t h at Identity he must l e a r n t o think of others-of t h o s e aroun d him with compass ion, o f those before him with appreciation. Otherwise h e w i l l become the victim of t h e fads and fanc ies of the pres­ ent moment, Theological students suppose that t h ey have to have read each new proof that the d oc t rine of t h e T rin ity does not make se nSe to modern man, even though they have never read Athanasius o r Augu stine on the T r i n ity .

From The Director I am extremely happy to be associated formally with the Alumni Association of Pacific Lutheran University. This statement, although short, expresses my feelings to­ wards the position of Director of Alumni Relations that I have assumed. My past three years of being associated with Pacific Lutheran University have al­ lowed me to focus upon the Alumni Asso­ ciation from close range. I have seen it develop under the capable hands of Larry Hauge from an essentially paper organiza­ tion to one of solidarity, active interest and an enthusiasm and willingness to work for and with its alma mater. The Alumni Asso­ ciation has come of age. The library fund drive proved this. I hope that in the future we can continue this aging process. Our goal will continue to be a loyal and at times a critical supporter of Pacific Lutheran University and to help the University con­ tinue to increase its role as a leader in higher education in the Pacific Northwest. I have had the opportunity to know only a small number of our alums. I do hope to have the opportunity to meet many of you in the near future. To all of you I pledge

my efforts towards the betterment of the Alumni Association. I am here to serve you as best I can. Your support, counsel and criticism is welcome. I do hope that I will see many of you at our Homecoming festivities November 2-5, 1967.

Sincerely, Jon B. Olson '62 Director of Alumni Relations

Rev, Watness Elected Rev. Luther O. Watness, '49, of Portland was elected to a one-year term as presi­ dent of the Alumni Association at the board's April 29 meeting. He succeeds Rev.

The Unive rsity Seal Symbol i d e ntity is as i m po rtant to an i nsti­ tution as person a lity is to an i n dividual, fo r they serve the same pu rpose. A u n i­ ve rs i ty must esta b l i s h a positive and recog­ ni zable image ; and it must e l i m inate t h e self-defeating confusion of previous fo rms of i d en t i fication . In 1 960 Pacific Luth eran Un i v e rs i ty had many images. It meant d iffe rent t h i n g s to d i fferent people. It had a l u m n i and friends who associated with PLA, PLC, Spokane College, and C o l u m b i a C o l lege. The de­ cisio n in 1 960 to c h an g e Pacific Lutheran from a "college" to a "un iversity" weak­ ened sen t i m e n tal ties for the school's a l u m n i . A new form of ident ity was needed to d raw to gether the various fact ions who h e l d a l l e g i a n c e to "their" school. Thus i n t h e fa l l o f 1 960 a sea l was de­ s i g n ed and presented to the Un iversity a nd its fo l l o w i n g . It was t h e fo c u s of the d i s­ t i n ctive perso n a l i ty of t h e i n stitution , sym-

bolizing t h e Un i v e rs i ty's h e ritage and function. The e l l i ptical shape w a s adapted from the seal o f The American Luthera n C h u rc h . I t symbol izes t h e c l ose t i e between t h e two bodies. In a d d i t i on , t h e ancient sh ape is a sign w h i c h i n d icates t h e re lationsh i p betwee n God a n d man. I n side the c i rc l e is the "Chi Rho," a s i g n designating Jesus as The Ch rist. It is p lanted in the book, which stands both for the B i b le and the student's main teac h i n g too l. The lam p--a traditional symbo l of learn­ i n g in t h e Western c iv i l i zation-holds the flame w h i c h i l l u m i n ates t h e book. One of t h e greatest natural resources i n the Pacific Northwest i s t h e everg reen tree. It is inco rporated into the seal to reflect P L U 's tie to its locale and to serve as a symbol o f the abu n d a n ce o f t h e natural s u rrou n d i n gs, a n d man's depend­ ence u po n i t . Paci fic Lutheran U n iversity has used t h e s e a l in m a n y ways, as witnessed i n the pictu res. It bel ieves t h e symbol has formed the basis fo r a pos it ive, desirab le identity.

m u n k live in s i m i l a r c l i m ates - d i fferent from that of the southwestern section of the U n ited States. A nd it works the other way too. " O u r students are taught," Pattie said, "that the kangaroo mouse a n d Perboa o f E u rope a r e o f d ifferent fam i lies.

the two a n imals live in s i m i la r reg ions but in d i fferent pa rts of the world and devel­ oped from d ifferent ancestral forms. " N o w when we teach our b i ology c l asses about the effect o f c l i mate and te rrain on a n i mals, we can demonst rate what we are tal k i n g about." Pattie hopes the exchange was only the l i rst of many.


C ore Curriculum Two years ago, as part of the continuous effort to i m p rove Pacific Luthe ran Un iver­ sity's acade m i c p resentatio n , the faculty accepted the c h a l lenge of rev ising the school's c u r ricu l u m . The need f o r such self-im prove ment was o u t l i ned by D r. Robert Mortvedt in h i s last Pres ident's Report: " D u r i n g the cu rrent period, i t is particu larly i m po rtant to p robe the c u rricu lum because o f the so-c al led explosio ns of kn owledge and techno logy. Many fields, part i c u l a rly science and math­ ematics, are expan d i n g with i nc re d i b l e speed. "Moreover, old barriers w h i c h used to separate the various d e partme nts beg i n to be as f u l l of holes as slabs of Swiss cheese. Biol ogy, c h e m istry, mathematics and physics are n o longer neatly defined de partments. A w h o l e n ew vocabulary is being c reated to fac il itate more i n te l l i gent commun icatio n . " H e also state d : " O f a l l the k n o w l edge now av a i l a b l e to man k i n d , what parts o u g h t to b e taught to special g ro u ps?" These are some o f the questions he pre­ sented to the faculty. After one yea r of study, the educators reported, "no con­ sensus in the answers attempted . " B u t t h e i n v estigation c o n t i n u e d , a n d late in the recent school year two p ro g ress re­ ports were subm itted. A fo undation for g rowth had been laid. The repo rts came from the C o l l eg e of Profes s i o n a l Studies (CPS) and the C o l lege of Arts and Sc iences (CAS). Although both g ro u ps were concerned with the i n t roduction of a " c o re " c u rric­ u l u m , they d i ffered on its i m pl e m entation. The CPS report favored a 4-1-4 p l an (fo u r m o n t h s each semester and one month of study in between) with the various d is-

c i p l i nes gathered u n der th ree courses. Meanw h i l e, the CAS c o m m i ttee said that it wasn't convinced that a 4-1-4 prog ram was the most efficient way to use fac u l ty time and the instituti o n ' s economic re­ sou rces. The two gro u ps did agree, however, on several poi nts. Both favored abo l i s h ing credit h o u rs and req u i ring instea d 36 cou rses fo r g raduat i o n . They a l so agreed on al lowing students to h ave an option o f selecting a restricted n u m b e r o f pass-fa i l cou rses. The working a rrange ment o f the "core" was treated differe ntly by the comm ittees. The CAS report favored a total of 1 5 courses i n the core: n i n e in h u manities, two in one natural science, two s e m i n a r cou rses, and t w o i n a n y t w o of the so c i a l sciences. U n d e r this plan, a student i n a maxi­ mu m-major fie ld would have to t a ke 1 9 courses i n his major , 1 5 in the core , and 2 electives, i n o rd e r to meet the gradu­ ation req u i rements . T h e "core" proposed b y t h e C P S also i n c l uded 15 d is c i p l ines, b u t divided them i nto three courses : society, t h o u g ht, and expression. T h e two plans will continue to be studied t h i s s u m m e r, a n d next fal l they w i l l be pre­ sented to the facu lty c o n ference.

Pacific Luthe ran Un ivers i ty is striv ing for acade m i c excellence i n other ways. D u r i n g the 1 966-67 school year over $1 1 5,000 was received in g rants. These g i fts made possible the a d d i t i o n of equ i p ment, and i t al lowed the c o m ­ m u nity to benefit f r o m the U n iversity's k n owledge. For exam p l e , $1 2, 900 was received from a National Sc ience Fo undation ( N SF) g rant to al low PLU to sponsor an " I n -Service


Institute in Mathematics for E l eme ntary Teac hers. " U n d e r this program the school taught area teachers new i n novations in the field of mathematics edu cation. NSF grants also tied the U n iversity and the comm unity together with the start of the $ 1 2,552 " P rofessional N u rse Trainee­ ship P rogram, " and the $4,520 resea rch grant for the study o f subsid ized housing and the adj ustment of older women. And this s u m mer, with the aid of a fed­ eral grant, PLU' s edu cation department is instructing teachers on the various tech­ niques to use in Head-Start c l assrooms. But i n add ition, the grants, both federal and p r ivate, a l l owed the Un iversity to ex­ pand its teac hing faci lties. The physics department, for examp le, received a $ 1 9,900 grant - matched by the U n iversity ­ to buy new equipment. The c h e m istry de­ portment obta i n ed a $1 1 ,500 grant, and another federal grant - to be matc hed by the Un iversity - p resented the institu tion with $ 1 2,500 for the p u rchase of labora­ tory and c l assroom equipment. One of the largest grants to be received by PLU wi l l run over a th ree-year period. The $ 1 98,567 gift from the Research Cor­ poration w i l l enable the school to add eight science p rofessors and strengthen the science program. The first insta l l ment of $ 5 1 , 700 begins this fa l l . Other grants expected next year include a continuation of the $1 9 , 499 mental health grant ; $20 , 1 75 for the p rofessional n u rse trai ning ; $7,450 for public -health n u rs i ng training; $1 8,000 for a commun ity rapport study of Pierce County; $5,000 for l ibrary books, and a m atch ing grant for $ 1 2,575 for e q u i pment .

Student E lections Stanley Stenersen, Spokane senior, is the president of the Associated Stu dents of PLU for the coming school year. Other officers elected include: Lloyd Eggan, Pocate l l o, first vice pres ident; M i chael Dool ittle, Tacoma, second vice pres ident; Kay Evans, Tacoma. executive sec retary ; Char leen Strand li en, La G rande, O re., l eg­ is latu re sec retary ; Robert Yost, Canby, a re., treasu re r ; and John Bierman, Federal Way, ch ief justice.

From St. M atthew's Luthera n Church The fo l l owing is quoted from the parish paper of St. Matthew's Lutheran C h u rch, Beaverton , a re . : "A fitting c l i max to t h i s week o f celebration w i l l b e m a d e in the gift which the chu rch library wi l l make to Pacific Lutheran U n iversity Library in ob­ servance of their dedic ation. As a thank­ offe ring to our Heavenly Father for His many blessings to us du ring the past five years, all the Overtime Donations for 1 967 w i l l be set aside for the use of the U n i­ versity Library for buying books.

Tennis A young tennis team that captured the Northwest Conference title and n early won the District I-NAIA crown paced spring sport activities. The netmen were led by sophomore Keith Johnson of Ellens b u rg, who suffered only two defeats during the season. He claimed the singles championship in the conference meet, but lost to the Evergreen Conferen ce champion in the District event. However, J ohnson and his teammate, Mi­ chael Benson of Spokane, beat the Ever­ green champions in the doubles' compe­ tition. Tennis coach R i chard Alseth lettered six players, all of them undercl'assmen.

Golf The Lutes ' golf team started the season as a strong contender for the Northwest Conference title spot. However, it ended the year with a fourth place rating in the conference, and fifth in the d i strict. Jay Robinson, a sophomore from Port­ land, received the Denn i s Austreng Me­ morial Trophy as the outstanding golfer.
