CRUSADER FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY The Most Reverend Arthur Michel Ramsey, Archbishop of Canterbury, is one of the most courageous, visionary and dedicated Christian Church leaders of our times. A crusader for Christian unity, he is using all the power of his office to bring the household of the Christian faith under one roof. He has visited prelates all over the world, made searching pronouncements, and braved storms of criticism in striving for his goal. gical w r itings are noted for their c l a rity of exp ressio n . They e m phasize the authority and message of the Holy Scriptures.

Born November 14, 1904, he was edu cated at Repto n, Madgalene College at Cam bridge, and Cuddesdon Theological College. He then served in the parish and educatio nal ministry of the Church o f Eng land as deacon. priest, curate, vicar, lec turer, Sub-Warden, canon and professor of div inity. In 1952 he was elected Bishop of Durha m; a n d in 1956 he became Arch bishop of York. On June 27, 1961, he was enthroned as the 100th Archbishop of Canterbury, the highest position in the Anglican Church.

To im plement his driving ambition to make the Ch ristian message relevant, he is fearless in presenting his views on the vitally i m portant issues confronting man kind. A man of conviction, he has faced up squarely to the profoundly d ifficult soc:ial problems of ou r times, includi ng war and all the m ajor social concerns. Because of th e exemplary leadership whic h this man of God has exerted in the many facets of his pasto ral office, I am p leased to present to you, Mr. P resident, H i s Grace, the Most Reverend Arthur M ichael Ramsey.

future that lies ahead of it. And you are all here, the youngest and the most junior of you, are all here not just as recipients but as creators. But what do you mean to receive in your years here and what do you mean to create? Let me sum it up under four headings. A University is: a home of freedom, a home of truth, a home of personality, and a home of religion. Freedom, Truth, Per sonality, Religion.

The Role of a University in the Modern World An address givan by The Most Reverend and Right Honourable Michael Ramsey, Archbishop of Canterbury, at the opening convocation of

the school year, September 22, 1967. The UnI conferred an honorary doctor 01 divinity degree on the Archbishop. versity

Members of the Pacific Lutheran Uni versity. I am overwhelmed with a feeling of undeserved honor and privilege and delight at becoming today one of your doctors and one of your alumni, taking my place amongst you who have all the priv ileges of this lovely campus. You have welcomed me today in the mosl generous and eloquent words, you have shown me a welcome of friendship which has warmed my heart and I want you to know that all my days I shall cherish this great honor and feel that I am one of you. I love universities and university life, because as you have just been reminded, before I got involved in ecclesiastical office I spent a good many years myself as a university teacher. And I never feel happier than when I find myself again on a university campus amongst students and teachers and doctors and professors. Let me then speak from my heart and from my experience of th.e role which a university can fulfill in the modern world. But to you who are students here let me just say this as a preliminary. If you join a very ancient university you feel Ihat it's there and you come to receive what it gives you. When you join a young univer sity such as this, you know, 100, that you are coming not just to receive from the institution, but you are supposed to have a share in the creation of an institution that is to last for many, many years. Pacific Lutheran University is what all of you are making it to become in the long, long

A Home of Freedom First. a home of freedom. One of the lovely things about a university is the free dom which its students enjoy. There are certain rules, there are certain regulations which direct you and if you fall afoul of some of the rules and regulations, you may find yourself in trouble. But the rules and regulations in any university are pretty few and there is a wonderful freedom, freedom of choice. You are free to believe in any religion or none. You are free to adhere to any set of political opinions or none. You are free to attach yourself to any ideology of your choice or none. You are free to choose the subjects of your study and the way in which you study them. You are free to choose your friends and your companions. And in such a large part of every day and every week, you are free to enjoy activities of your own choice. There is no freedom, I believe, quite like the freedom of st dent days and the more elderly among us envy you and would love to be coming here having it with you all over again. But freedom has its problems as well as its delights. Think just for a moment about the true meaning of freedom. Super ficially we all lend to think of freedom as doing what we like any moment thai we like. I make my choices doing just what I like, say, on Monday, Tuesday, Wednes-

day, Thursday. But If I fol l ow freedom on that purely libertarian thesis, by the time Friday comes I may find that because I have indulged my freedom so generously on the previous days, when It comes to

"A Newly-Miinted Academic Year" by President Robert Morlvedl September, 1967 It affords me pleasu re to welcome both returning and new members of the fac ulty to a newly-minded academic year nine months of time and opportunity no one has experienced before. To me it is an awe-inspiring situation. How we spend our time and effort will immediately affect the lives of at least 2,700 students; ulti mately It may affect the lives of tens of millions of human beings-many millions yet unborn. Since there are many newly-appointed members of our faculty and staff, I want particularly to welcome them. In the proc ess of appointing you, we have conscien tiously attempted to acquaint you with our peculiar purposes. We know we have not fully succeeded; hence we shall continue some orientation conferences and discus sions. At this moment, I want particularly to urge you to study our declared pur poses as a University of the Church. You will find the statement in the front of our catalog, as well as in the Faculty Hand book. I earnestly invite you to make the clearly stated concepts a part of your per sonal philosophy and practice. To the former members of the faculty and staff, I invite you to be aware of the fact that one of your important and imme-

diate opportunities and obligations is to do all you possibly can to assist your new colleagues to make a happy and comfort able adjustment to their new environment. One of the reasons they are here is to bring to us new ideas and new insights for enabling us to attempt to do a far better job than we have done before. They can do this only if we receive them graciously and establish meaningful lin'es of com munication.

The Fuse Is Short Since we gathered a year ago as a fac ulty, almost incredible things Ihave hap pened in the United States and around the world. Of one thing I am certain, never have we begun a school year with so milny people aware of so many profoundly dis turbing problems to be solved. I say "aware of," for most of the problems them selves have been known to tens of thou sands of informed and sensitive people for many years. Little has been done, how ever, because the fuse to the dynamite has appeared to be as elastic as our na tional indifference. Now, however, millions -but far from all!---of Americans know that time is running out. The fuse is get-

Beyond, the Valley, historic Jerusalem, entering a new phase of its Ilife and once more cap turing the world's attention. appeared as a gleaming fulfillment of the peace sug gested by its ancient name. Entering behind the walls once more, I made my way to the most sacred of the Jewish holy places, a wall of huge stones rising over the western remnants of Israeli's ancient Temple courtyard wall and com mOlilly known as the "Wailing Wall." For centuries devout Jews have visited the site to pray and to contemplate Israel's lost glory. As I approached, a young I sraeli soldier, weapon in hand, reminded me to cover my head. There I joined elderly pil grims and youthful, devout Jews who had come to celebrate their nation's rebirth by praising the God of their fathers. Shortly following the "Six Day War" when the Wall was opened once more for Jewish pil grims, the Jerusalem Post reported that two hundred thousand persons-one tenth of the population of Israel-came to the holy place. During a jeep ride around the city Dr. Beroshi, curator of the Shrine of the Book Museum where a number of the Dead Sea Scrolls are housed, described the battle for Jerusalem in which he had taken part. He explained that the Israeli army had encircled the city and, like every army in history, made its assault from the north. At the Mandelbaum Gate, scene of heavy fighting, we saw soldiers removing mines from the area; occasionally we heard booms from the place where they were detonated. In the surrounding areas bulldozers were at work to remove ruins and rubbish. The tension of anticipation during the final days of May was so great, our guide said, that the outbreak of hos-

tilities came almost as a relief. Mobilized from the reserves, Dr. Beroshi had left his family in their apartment and joined his comrades. "For the next three days," he stated, "I was quite busy." The guide at Iisrael's new National Museum was a most competent young lady. In the section which had been dam aged by artillery shells she paused in her lecture to exclaim, "You'll have to forgive me if I lose my train of thought here. We are still so terribly excited about what has happened to us during these past weeks!" In a lecture on the subject of modern Biblical research Dr. Moshe Goshen, pro fessor of Hebrew and Semitics at Hebrew University, related how the war experi ence had deepened a religious sensitivity among Israel's citi'zens. "One month ago," he related, "soldiers who would have pro tested being called religious, reached the Wailing Wall still under sniper fire. And they wept like children over what is con sidered a desecrated religious symbol." He continued, "Everywhere one hears the word 'miracle. ' It is an appropr,iate term; the significance of what has happened is too great for us to see. Future Jews will have to comprehend it." When our group met for a question and answer session with Israel's Chief Rabbi Untermann, the elderly scholar expressed similar sentiments in his comments. "When the whole story of the war is known," he reflected, "we shall see that it is a story of del·iverance which would be wor.thy as an other chapter added to the Bible." Our hosts avoided the words "annexed" or "conquered" in referring to the parts of the city now under Israeli control. To their view, the no man 's land which split this Holy City in two must be eradicated both along its sacred streets and in men's minds. The new Jerusalem is now united once more to give spiritual life to people of all nations.

Ord I H a ll will be dedicated at 1 :30 p.m. and Tingel stad Hall at 2:30. All in all a busy homecoming is planned. We hope you will be here to enjoy it with us. Homecoming can only be successful if the alumni will take an active interest and revisit their alma mater. May we see you at Homecoming this year?

From The Director During the months of October and Novem ber many of our alumni will be contac ted by the Lutheran Ingathering For Education (LIFE) prog ram of the American Lutheran Church. This program of the church was initiated to show that the church is Inter ested and is willing to support its schools and seminaries. We who are the graduate s of one of these church related institutions know full well the influence that our edu cation has had upon our lives. We are in a unique position to support this program in our local congregations. However, some alumni may face a prob lem. Many alums still have unpaid bal ances on their pledges to the library. The LIFE appeal may appear to conflict with this pledge. The following suggestions may be of help. First, continue your pledges that you have already made to the University. This

money is committed by the University for specific purposes. It is possible to have your LIFE pledge take up at the conclu sion of your present commitment, i.e. the Library Fund Drive. Secondly, if your li brary pledge is now paid up, then a gift to LIFE will extend and enrich the church's program of higher education. If you so de sire. your gift may be designated directly for Pacific Lutheran University. Finally, the LIFE program needs all of our prayers. To achieve the goal o f more than $20,000,000 there must be a deep involvement by all members of the church. You can help as the LIFE goal is to place a major new building on each ALC school campus. Sincerely,

JON B. OLSON, Director of Alumni Relations P.S. The non-ALC alumni may wish to help by contributing direct gifts to the Univer sity for the Clifford O. Olson Physical Edu cation Auditorium Building.

Understanding Is Board Aim Conducting the business of the Alumni Association is but one facet of the re spo ns ibility of the Alumni Board. Under the leadership of Rev. Luther Wat ness, pres i de n t the 1967-68 Alumni Board has planned four meetings for this year. A special feature of this year's program will be a two-day meeting in February that is designed to aid the Board members I n gaining a new dimension o f knowledge and understanding about their alma m ater. This program, it is hoped, will result in a closer rapport between all alumni and their alma mate r. Your Board representa tives will also be better equipped to rep resent your thoughts and concerns to the alumni relations office and the administra tion. Results of the meetings of the Alumni ,

Board will be reported as a regular fea ture in RE F LECTI ONS. The first discussion at t!lis year's Sep tember meeting cen tered around the sub ject of an alumni spo nsor ed cont i n uin g educ atio n program. November's meeting at Homecoming will conc e rn itself with the

and l e arn in g program in the un iversity residence halls. A special alu mn i committee has a lso been cha rged with the responsibility of r el ati n g the alumni program to the under class students on the c a mpus It i s felt that this co m m ittee will help the s tuden t of today to understan d and re l ate to the past as well as t o give the alumni an in s ight i n to today's sludent and his thi n k in g new living

A l o n g with everyt h i n g e lse, the cost o f h i g h e r education h as r i s e n s h a r p l y i n t h e l a s t decade. Between the 1 954-55 aca d e m i c year and t h e c u rrent school year, t h e cost of atten d i n g a p u b l i c institution jum ped from $1 ,1 90 per y e a r to $ 1 ,600, more t h a n a 40% i n c rease. The cost at a private s c h o o l d u r i n g t h e s a m e period rose from $1 ,700 to close to $2,500. The expe nse budget fo r most colleges i s made u p of t u it i on and fees, room and board, books and s u p p l ies, and i n c i dental expenses i n c l u d i n g ,(ravel and recreation. Fam i l ies are i n c u r ring most of thes e ex penses d u r i n g t h e i r son or d a u g hter's h i g h school expe rience. T u i t i o n , fees a n d cost of books are new expenses to be con sid e red as t hese fa m i l i es p l an for c o l l ege. I t has always been the policy of Pacific Lutheran U n iversity to m a i ntain h i g h edu cational standards a t as low a cost as pos s i b l e. The s u ppo rt of the coope rat i n g Lutheran C h u rches a n d f riends w h o c o n. t ri b u te toward the ope ration o f t h e s c h o o l en ables the U n i v e r s i ty to ch arge a lower t u i tion rate than would otherwise be pos sible. However, escalat i n g costs o f o p e ra tion have demanded periodic i n c reases i n the costs that ou r stud ents i nc u r .

Annual Costs It is esti m ated that a res ident student at t h e U n i vers ity will n eed a m i n i m u m of $2,30 0 to meet expenses fo r t h e 1 967-68 a!;ad e m i c year. This fig u re i n c l udes $300 tor i n c i dental expenses and represents the average a m o u n t reported by ret u r n i n g stu dents a p p l y i n g fo r financ i a l assistance. The $2,300 total c o m pares qu ite favor ably with other private i nstit u t io n s in the
