Like Options

Available in C urriculun1 Sixty-six percent of the last graduating class at Trinity took advantage of one or more of the College's curricular options, according to a recent report from the Office of Educational Services. The options, which enhance the regular course offerings at the College, include: Independent Study, Trinity College Rome Campus, Open Semester, 12-College Exchange, academic leave of absence (to study full time at other institutions) and the cross-registration program with other institutions in Greater Hartford, as well as Wesleyan and Central Connecticut State College. On the 384 students who were graduated in May 1973, there were 255 who took one or more of these options. A breakdown of these shows that 41 attended the Rome Campus, 37 took

open semesters, 156 took Independent Study, 46 earned course credit in local cross-registration programs, and 152 earned course credit away from Trinity, in summer school , on 12-College Exchange, or on academic leave of absence. Of the 374 freshmen who entered Trinity in September 1969, the report shows , only 288 , or 77 percent, graduated in the traditional four-year time period. The graduating class of 384 men and women also included 61 transfers and 35 people who entered . Trinity prior to September 1969. For the Class of 1972, participation in the curricular options was about 50 percent. The options were introduced with the curriculum revision of 1969, and have been subsequently expanded.

In this capacity he will serve as an ambassador of the College, representing the president at various meetings across the country. In announcing the appointment, President Lockwood said "Dr. Cooper's long and distinguished service to Trinity particularly fits him for this assignment." Well-known professionally and as a public figure, Dr. Cooper has been on Trinity's faculty since 1941. His specialty is British history in the 18th century, and he has been managing editor of the Journal of British Studies since its founding in 1961. He stepped down in February as chairman of the College's

history department after nearly a decade in that office. He served on the Hartford Board of Education from 1959-1965, including a term as board president. He was chairman of the Governor's Bi-Partisan Committee on Redistricting the State Senate in 1959-61, and from 1962-65 he was on the National Cancer Advisory Council of the U.S. Public Health Service. He was an associate Trustee of St. Joseph College, is a trustee of the Cesare Barbieri Center of Italian Studies at Trinity, and served on the Hartford Charter Review Commission in 1961. In addition, he is a member of the Advisory Committee of the Yale Edition of the Horace Walpole Correspondence, and, since 1971, has been doing research for a biography of Queen Charlotte, wife of King George Ill, who reigned at the time of the American Revolution.

APRIL, 1974

College Costs Go Up, Budget at $9.9 Million The College has raised its annual tuition by $17 5, bringing tuition from $2,850 to $3,025. The increase, effective in September, is due in part to substantial increases in the price of heating oil, according to the College's budget figures. For the first time in recent years, Trinity is also · increasing room rent and board fees, which are optional, by a total of $130. Room rent, last raised in 1971, increases from $700 to $750. Board, last raised in 1970, increases from $600 to $680. The General Fee, at $125, is unchanged. This means that a full-time resident student would pay $4,580 for tuition, room and board. Students have the options of fmding their own apartments off campus, and of making their own eating arrangements. Also unchanged are the required $67 student activities fee, which goes into a student controlled budget, and the $20 cat:!lJ>US parking fee, required of students who maintain a car on campus. The increases in tuition, ;-1oom and board were announced by President Lockwood, who said the College's budget next year would be $9.9 million, up from $9.1 million for the current academic year. The higher budget is balanced, Dr. Lockwood said, not only by the increases in tuition, room, and board, but also by a continuing yield of 5 per cent on Trinity's endowment, by increased donations from alumni, parents, and friends, and by certain short-term investments. Fuel prices, which rose 156 per cent over last year's prices, account for a large share of the tuition increase, Dr. Lockwood said. Even though the use of fuel oil has been cut down, the College estimates it will have to pay $115,000 more for its main heating oil next year, equivalent to about $72 for each of

Trinity's 1,600 students. The increase in room rent resulted from increased costs of maintenance and security, Dr. Lockwood said, while the board fee was increased because of the generally rising costs of food. Financial aid budgets and the instruction budget will each be increased 10 per cent, he said and more funds will be allocated to the Library to meet the Continued on Page 3

Trinity Saves 1, 000 Gallons Of Oil Daily Fuel consumption at Trinity was reduced 18.5 per cent during February, a saving of more than 1,000 gallons a day. Use of Number 6 low sulphur oil, which feeds the College's main boiler plant, was 129,268 gallons in February compared with 158,562 gallons in February 1973. The difference of 29,294 gallons amounts to a saving of slightly more than 1,000 gallons for each day of the month. Even greater percentages of saving were found in comparing delivery figures for two other types of fuel oil which the College uses to heat some buildings not connected to the main boiler system. For Number 2, horne heating oil, the saving was 23.4 per cent, down from 8,159.1 gallons in February 1973 to 6,249.5 gallons this February, a reduction of 1,909 .6 gallons . For Number 4 oil, which heats some dormitories and apartment buildings, the saving was 41 per cent, down from 29,033.5 gallons in February 1973 to 17,071 gallons this year, a reduction of 11 ,932.5 gallons. The comparison is significant because it represents the first full month of continuous operation of the College, without any vacation periods. In addition, the numbers of degree days the coldness factor which affects fuel consumption - were almost equal in February 1973 and February 1974. February 197 4, with 1,056 degree days, was only 4 degree days colder than February 1973, with 1,052 degree days. Since late November, College offices, dormitories, and classrooms have been heated at 68 degrees, and the Ferris Athletic Center kept at 55 degrees. During vacation periods, which included the Winter vacation from Dec. 22 through Jan. 11, temperatures in most buildings were lowered to 55 degrees. Use of electricity has been cut, and a special committee on the energy situation has been meeting to review the situation. In adjusting to the fuel crisis, the College decided to maintain the academic calendar of classes, examinations, and Continued on Page 2

Trinity Saves On Oil Use Continued From Page 1 vacations unless it became absolutely necessary to close down. So far, the calendar has not been changed. The report also .shows that while oil consumption went down, "staggering" increases in the price of the oil erased any possible dollar savings. Number 6 low sulphur oil increased from 11 cents a gallon in February 1973 to 30 cents this February, a 174 per cent increase; number 4 oil rose from 13 cents a gallon to 24 cents a gallon, an 89 per cent increase, and number 2 oil increased from 15 cents a gallon to 29 cents a gallon, an 87 per cent increase. As a result of the fuel price increases, Trinity spent some $54,000 more from the beginning of the heating season through the end of February than it has for the similar period the previous year.

WOMEN ENGINEERING MAJORS-Trinity's first two women engineering majors, Dorothy Greenberg '74 (right) and Cynthia Bromberg '75, standing by huge compression testing device in Hallden Engineering Laboratory. Miss Greenberg, who studied architecture at Cornell her junior year, expects to find a job in industrial design after Commencement in May. She says this kind of work is "creative as well as functional." Miss Bromberg, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Solomon Z. Bromberg '43 is studying electrical engineering, and considering a career in computer design and programming. She expects to be working on a project in biomedical engineering this summer with Dr. Joseph D. Bronzino, associate professor of engineering, studying electrical signals which are emitted from the brain during sleep. The women say they are treated as peers by the men in the department. According to Dr. August E. Sapega, chairman of the department, women constitute about one percent of the working force of engineers in the nation.

Trinity's heating system, which spans a 9-acre campus, is comparable to a medium-sized industrial heating plant. Building space exceeds 920,000 square feet, or an area the size of 19 football fields. The report also shows that while oil consumption went down, "staggering" increases in the price of the oil erased any possible dollar savings. Number 6 low sulphur oil increased from 11 ¢ a gallon in February 1973 to 30¢ this February, a 174 per cent increase ; number 4 oil rose from 13¢ a gallon to 24¢ a gallon, an 89 per cent increase, and number 2 oil increased from IS¢ a gallon to 29¢ a gallon, an 87 per cent increase.

What is TEGA? And what have they been doing? TEGA is th e Trinity . Education Graduate Association. Recently they joined the evaluation process for five year state approval of the Education Department's teacher preparation programs. The visiting evaluating team was appointed by the State Department of Education. Tony Giogrio, president of TEGA and an assistant professor at the University of Hartford; John Whalen, work-study coordinator at Buckeley High School in Hartford; John LeConche, coordinator of Vocational Education for the Hartford School System; and Richard P. Morris, teacher and education consultant represented TEGA. These alumni declared their support for the Education Department at Trinity and its program. They stressed high academic standards and the intellectual pursuit of knowledge as key factors in the successful teacher preparation program by the department. The visiting evaluating team has indicated a favorable response to Trinity's efforts in teacher preparation. Their official report will be presented to a standing committee of the State. Board of Education. They in turn will recommend the fmdings to the State Board. The Trustees and Faculty are likewise involved in conducting their own studies of the viability of the Department of Education. As yet their findings have not been made public. The Executive Committee of TEGA has been meeting regularly and a tentative schedule of TEGA activities has been set. (1) The traditional commencement tea given in honor of those receiving a Master of Arts in Education will be reestablished and sponsored jointly by the Department of Education and TEGA; (2) TEGA will sponsor, in cooperation with the Alumni Office, a symposium or guest speaker during Reunion (Homecoming) Weekend; (3) Also at Reunion there will be a table for TEGA members at the alumni luncheon and dinner as well as a reserved section at Jessee Field for the football game; (4) TEGA will be publishing a semi-annual newsletter to keep its membership up to date on activities and areas of genera_!_ ___ interest. TEGA members have been active in their communities as well as in education. Everett B. Done (Windsor, Conn.) has won a long legal battle for the right of a teacher to serve on the Town Council in the town in which he teaches. Charges of conflict of interest were made but not upheld. Everett not only ran successfully for the Town Council but was reelected for a second term last fall. In the education arena, TEGA members are also making their marks. Eleanor Berger (Plattsburgh, New York) is writing the educational programs for Planned Parenthood. Helen Fleming is completing her course work for her PhD at the University of Connecticut and will be writing her dissertation on professional higher education administration. John LeConche is working on his doctorate at the University of Massachusetts in Vocational-Technical Education. Other recent M. A. alumni working on their doctorates include Mike Pomerantz and Ted Sergi at the University of Connecticut, and Roger Sherman at Columbia University. And Father Kris is the newly appointed principal of S.E. Catholic High School. TEGA is keeping busy and active. Richard P. Morris B.A. '68, M.A. '70 7-1 Sutton Place Bloomfield, CT 06002

Women 'Muscle In' at Ferris Center By JANICE KABEL The Hartford Times Four years after women were integrated into academic life at Trinity Co 11 e g e a traditionally male campus stronghold has fallen. It is the gymnasium, and physical education teachers and school officials say that Trinity women in unprecedented numbers are beginning to use the indoor track, the pool and especially the weightlifting room. One instructor says she believes that a higher percentage of women than men are using the facilities on their own time. On a recent afternoon, several women demonstrated for a visitor some of the activities they are pursuing in search of better figures, better fitness and better health. Two women who began programs of daily exercise long before the current rise in interest are Sara Thorne, a senior from Longmeadow, Mass. and Gigi Bradford, a senior from Centerville, Del. They have been tennis partners for their four years at Trinity and spend other free blocks of time exercising in the gym. After what seemed an interminable session of skipping rope like boxers in training, they spoke with pleasure about the other women at Trinity who have suddenly joined forces with them on the playing fields. "It's become more socially acceptable to work out," said Sara. "Billie Jean King has started to encourage the acceptance of sports among women. She's a symbol, but she's a terrific athlete. Women need encouragement from an earlier age." Aside from the symbolic encouragement The Female Athlete of the Year may be providing for the approximately 600 Trinity women, other factors are drawing them to the locker rooms. "It wasn't part of the culture for women to be interested in physical fitness" Gigi says "but people are realizing that beauty is part of physical fitness." She says her record with her jump-rope is 257.

Freshman Gayle Stroy does calisthenics with aid of footrest Jane Millspaugh, an instructor in physical education says the rise in physical activity by women is part of a general push in the campus population for physical fitness. "It's no !onger cool

Win Traveling Fellowships

Robert J. Ingria and Jane L. Veith, both seniors, have been selected to receive $7,000 fellowships from the Thomas J. Watson Foundation of Providence, Rhode Island. The two Trinity students are among 71 graduating seniors from 35 small private colleges and universities to win the annual fellowships, which provide a year of independent postgraduate travel and study abroad. The fellowships are presented by the foundation, a charitable trust established by the late Mrs. Thomas J. Watson Sr., in memory of her husband, founder of International Business Machines Corporation. Ingria, a classics major from New York City, will use his fellowship for travel in Greece, Italy, and Asia Minor to investigate the relationship between the development of Greek architecture and Greek poetry, drawing on the ideas of the late Dr. James A. Notopoulos, former chairman of Trinity's classics department. Ingria won a James J. Goodwin Greek prize in each of his first three years at Trinity, has participated in activities of WRTC, the student radio station, and has studied at Trinity's Rome Campus. He is a member of Pi Gamma Mu, national social sciences honor society

physical fitness, a desire to gain competence in some skill they can use after they graduate. Four or five years ago students thought there was something anti-intellectual about physical activity."Kurth also believes that a decline in the drug culture may be helping, too. The renaissance in female fitness has been encouraged by the school, too. Teams for women have been formed in such sports as swimming, crew and tennis. And hair dryers have been installed in the shower rooms. Many of the women who are exercising on their own time - most popular activities appear to be weight room exercises, running and swimming are doing so a_搂 an outgrowth of a course designed f6.r women called "Body Mechanics" that has been taught since women were first admitted. Many of the women who take the course, taught this semester by graduate fellow Jane Fox, continue to do the activities from the class later on. Much of the course consists of work on a forbidding piece of apparatus called a "Universal Gym," which allows a dozen people to work out at each time at such exercises as weightlifting and weight pulling, pullups and situps. As she demonstrated a pullup that started with her feet anchored against the machine and her head almost touching the floor, Dorothy B. Boehm, a junior from West Hartford, said she enrolled in the course when she realized "what lousy shape" she was in. Myra Engers, a sophomore from Larchmont, N.Y., says she enrolled in "Body Mechanics" because she was lazy. "l'm not disciptlrre'd enough to work out alone." But if the pattern holds true in her case, pulling weights on the Universal Gym will become a habit. A 1though some frictions have developed between men and women athletes - "The women's crew had路 practice at 6 a.m. so they wouldn't distract the men," says Nancy B. Moore, a junior trom Woodbridge - the male population doesn't seem to mind the presence of women. Watching the women work out on a recent afternoon was Paul Griffith, a senior from Bethesda, Md. who plays on the lacrosse team. "I think it's really good. Women have a need to be in shape as much as men. All women should at least run."

Jane Veith Miss Veith, a psychology major from Leonia, N.J., is the first Trinity woman to win a Watson fellowship. She will use her fellowship to travel in Europe to compare the differences between the American and European approaches to the study of animal behavior. Europeans traditionally study animal behavior in the animals' natural habitats, while American prefer to do research in controlled laboratory settings. Miss Veith hopes to contrast

Robert Ingria each approach and examine the different ways data are collected and interpreted. The Watson Fellows were chosen from among graduating seniors nominated by the participating colleges. They were selected by the Foundation primarily on the basis of their potential for creative leadership in their fields of interest, although academic records and extra-curricular activities are also taken into account.

rapid rise in book and periodical prices as well as handle the greater use being made of the Library. This is the fourth consecutive year in which Trinity has balanced its budget, since the College suffered a deficit in 1969-70. The deficit has since been paid back into the College's endowment fund. "As we approach the $10 million mark in annual expenditures," Dr. Lockwood said, "it is appropriate to recall that Trinity's record in handling the economic pressures operating in higher education has become a model for other institutions throughout the country. At a time when so many colleges and universities have been forced either to cut staff, cut programs, or to run in the red, I am pleased that Trinity has been able to manage its finances so as to avoid reducing its services to students."

Haberlandt Studies Problems of Aging

True or False? A person grows more cautious with age. The statement is true, and psychologists believe that this accounts for some of the problems which older employees face when their jobs are changed or wiped out by technology. And if, for any reason, you hesitated before you answered the question, you experienced the characteristic way older people respond to new tasks and new jobs. "One does not have to be a psychologist to recognize that adjustment to a changing work requirement, let alone to an entirely new environment, is more difficult for older employees than for younger ones," says Dr. Karl F. Haberlandt, associate professor of psychology at the College. However, says Dr. Haberlandt, recent research demonstrates that differences in performance that can be related to age do not stem from any differences in the "native ability to learn." "Employers should know that people between 40 and 60 years of age are no less intelligent than younger people," Dr. Haberlandt says. ''This is important to know in a society in which jobs are being constantly transformed, because it is then possible to put older workers in the kind of setting that permits them to work at their best." Any task, says Dr. Haberlandt, involves a certain degree of uncertainty for the performer to deal with, regardless of age. "Retracing the route to a house visited only once before, trying to - - -remember a phone number or the name of a distant relative are all instances of such uncertainty," he says. "In lab ora tory , and occupational learning, and in memory experiments, it has been shown that older people apply more caution than younger people" to the solution of particular tasks, he says. In an article entitled "Learning, Memory, and Age," published last Fall in "Industrial Gerontology," a publication of the National Council on the Aging, Dr. Haberlandt reviewed the recent research into the question of what accounts for differences in learning and memory performance between older and younger groups of people. "Researchers noted in many instances that older people may be more cautious in performing a given task or answering a certain question than younger people," he wrote. He said it appears that older people "may wish to minimize the risk" of doing something wrong, or of failing to recall something correctly.

'

"It appears to be true that older people can learn just as well as younger people, and that they can remember things they've learned just as well. But it also appears to be true that they exercise more caution in both learning and remembering things, and it is this behavior that lowers their scores in testing," Dr. Haberlandt said. Other experiments indicated that the performance of older people was helped when they were allowed to pace themselves. Dr. Haberlandt mentioned the work of one researcher, who tested two groups of old and young people, and found there were fewer errors in a liberal pacing condition in both groups regardless of age, "But older subjects were able to benefit considerably more by slower and self-pacing schedules than younger people." Another area of study shows that older people tend not to rely as much on mnemonic devices to recall things as do younger people. A mnemonic device is a mental trick which people use to make it easier to remember something. A popular such device is the phrase "spring ahead, fall back," which was used each April and October when it came time to set clocks back or ahead an hour. The decreasing tendency of older people to use mnemonic devices, Dr. Haberlandt suggest, "may be the result of the greater caution older people exercise in tasks involving hidden and therefore uncertain relationships." Dr. Haberlandt says it is possible to take into account the older person's tendency towards eaution, when placing him in new work situations, or in retraining programs. As key ingredients to improved performance in older people, he suggests: *An arrangement for self-pacing, "which does not necessarily mean low efficiency of output. Self-pacing still allows a high and accurate rate of performance." *In tasks which require discrimination between certain items or the association of certain things, it would be helpful to instruct the person ahead of time about the best ways to make the discrimination or remember the associations. *In situations involving uncertainty, older persons should be encouraged to take slightly more chances. "The element of caution is probably only one of several factors which influence the unique ways older people respond to different tasks and problems," Dr. Haberlandt said.

Minot Appointed Writer-in-Residence At Johns Hopkins Stephen Minot, associate professor of English, part-time, will be Writer-in-Residence at the Johns Hopkins University Writing Seminar Program for the 1974-75 academic year. He has been granted a leave of absence from Trinity in order to accept the appointment. As Writer-in-Residence, Minot will be teaching a course on the 20th century novel and one on fiction writing with novelist John Barth, who is on the faculty at Johns Hopkins. Minot, who joined the Trinity faculty in 19 59, also pursues a writing career. His novel, "Chill of Dusk," was published by Double-Day in 1964 and his text on writing, "Three Genres," was published by Prentice-Hall the following year. He has co-edited an anthology entitled ."Three Stances in Modern Fiction." His most recent publication is "Crossings;" a collection of his own stories to be brought out by the University of Illinois Press in October. His stories have also appeared in such magazines as Harpers, Atlantic Monthly, Redbook, Virginia Quarterly Review, The Quarterly Review of Literature, and in Playboy. His work was included in the 1971 issue of "0. Henry Prize Stories" as well as other anthologies. Minot was graduated from Harvard in 1953 with an A.B. He received an M.A. from Johns Hopkins in 1955. Before coming to Trinity he taught at Johns Hopkins, Bowdoin and the University of Connecticut. At Trinity he teaches courses in the writing of fiction and the senior seminar, a course in Freudian and Jungian criticism. In 1973 four of his students entered their fiction in the Atlantic Monthly's 52nd Annual Creative Writing Contest. Competing nationally, they won First, Fourth, Fifth places, and Honorable Mention. In addition to teaching, Minot expects to continue writing short stories and a new novel.

We all hope NORM and Jean PITCHER will be able to take their trip West, and we hope, as they, that they will be able to visit the McBURNEYS, the PRYORS and particularly to see KEN STUER, and to give them all our best. Your Class Secretary is grateful to be able to report having had a December exhibition at the Guaranty Trust Co. in West Hartford, followed by an Invitation Exhibit at the State-Dime Savings Bank, also in West Hartford, January, February and into March. BILL and Georgiana NICHOL are very happy in their home in Heritage Village in Southbury and can't understand why other Trinity Men haven't found this happy area.

It is indeed with sorrow that it is necessary to report a further loss of membership in our small group of living members of the Class of 1927. Although he will no longer be with us at our small reunions, we will always remember FRED CELANTANO as a loyal member of our class who was proud of his College and his chosen profession. Our sympathy is extended to his brother, Luke 1923, and other members of his family. Condolences are also rextended to the Class of 1928 in its loss of RON CONDON. His close personal relationship with your Secretary-Treasurer is exemplified by the fact that over the past 30 years we have missed but two Trinity-Wesleyan football games. Macabre news is never pleasant. Neither is the fact that sometimes there seems to be a question if our 1927'ers actually read our notes in THE REPORTER. It seems that requests for news of you and yours ends up in a zero result and the possibility of contributing dues draws zilch. We have a very efficent Postal Service man in our neighborhood who would be most happy to put some mail from you in the box at 34 Onlook Road, Wethersfield, Conn. 06109. How about it?

Varsity Basketball The varsity basketball team finished the 1973-1974 season with a 17-7 record, the best since 1965-66 when they were 18-3. The Bantams victory over Wesleyan on February 19 gave Coach Shults his 100th varsity win. Winning four of the last six games, the Bantams defeated W.P.I. 85-81, Bowdoin 58-52, Wesleyan 91-76, but lost to crosstown rival, University of Hartford 72-68, and Tufts, 83-66, before closing the season with .a triple overtime victory at Coast Guard, 113-100.
