Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk PRESIDENT LOCKWOOD TO RETIRE BY '82 As announced in a letter to alumni in December, Theodore D. Lockwood will retire by January, 1982.

Lockwood, who is the senior college president in New England in terms of years of service, cited "personal and professional interests" as the reason for his decision.

He will return toT rinity this January from a six-month sabbatical leave.

Dr. George W.B. Starkey, chairman of the board of trustees, said that the board has accepted Lockwood's decision "with deep regret. Ted Lockwood has provided distinctive leadership and service to Trinity since 1968. Under his prudent stewardship, the College has flourished and grown. It has solidified a position of prominence among independent colleges of the liberal arts and sciences. While we are sorry that Ted has chosen to step down, we respect his wish to try his hand at other things."

Starkey stated that a wide and thorough search will be conducted for a new chief executive of the College. A selection committee will be formed in the near future. Lockwood did not disclose his future professional plans, but noted that he was announcing his retirement from Trinity well in advance to allow the College ample time to choose a successor and to assure a smooth and orderly transition.

Under Lockwood's leadership, Trinity has achieved an impressive record of fiscal stability and progress. The College has operated on a balanced budget for eleven years, and the endowment has grown steadily, from approximately $25 million in 1968 to $41 million, currently. During his tenure, Trinity underwent a smooth transition to coeducation, the curriculum vvas revised, and the undergraduate enrollment increased from 1250 to its present level of 1700. Applications for admission have risen by more than fifty percent, and the number of academic departments and programs has also expanded.

During this period the College also established a campus in Rome, The Barbieri Center for Italian Studies, and strengthened its ties with local educational institutions through the Greater Hartford Consortium for Higher Education, of which Lockwood has been president. Trinity has sought to increase its involvement in the city of Hartford, through its participation in the Southside Institutions Neighborhood Alliance (SINA) and the establishment of an extensive program of student internships.

A nationally recognized spokesman for liberal arts education, Lockwood was chairman of the Association of American Colleges in 1976-1977, the Washingtonbased organization of liberal arts colleges and universities which deals with substantive issues in higher education. A director of the American Council on Education, he is a founding member of ACE's Business-Higher Education Forum and serves on its Commission on Governmental Relations. He is a director of the Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation and has served twice as president of the New England Small College Athletic Conference.

He is also a director of the Connecticut General Insurance Corporation, the Greater Hartford Chamber of Commerce, and the Institute of Living, where he serves on the long-range planning committee.

Lockwood is an accomplished mountain climber, having travelled to Nepal, the Sahara, Kashmir and Patagonia during his years at Trinity. Twice he led groups of students on treks in Nepal.

Lockwood is the fifteenth president ofT rinity College. A 1948 Phi Beta Kappa graduate ofT rinity, he earned his doctorate in European history from Princeton University. Before assuming the Trinity presidency, he was provost and dean of the faculty at Union College from 1964-1968. He has also taught at Dartmouth, M.l.T., and Juniata College. He was dean of the faculty at Concord College from 1961-1964. He has beet! awarded honorary degrees from Concord College, Union College, the University of Hartford and Wesleyan University.

Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk BRADLEY NAMED CLASSICS CHAIRMAN Dr. James R. Bradley, associate professor of classics, has been appointed chairman of the classics department for a three-year term.

A 1957 Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the College, Bradley earned his master's degree and doctorate from Harvard. Before joining the Trinity faculty in 1970, he taught at Hobart and William Smith College, Harvard University, and the University of North Carolina. He teaches Greek and Latin language and literature. In 1977-78, he was a visiting faculty fellow at Yale University.

Bradley is past president of the Connecticut chapter of the Classical Association of New England and the Hartford Society of the Archeological Institute of America. A former student of voice, he has performed frequently as guest soloist and recitalist in the Hartford area and is a member of the Christ Church Cathedral choir. In 1979, he directed the summer session at Trinity's Barbieri Center in Rome.

STUDENT OFFICERS ELECTED In the first at-large elections ever held by the Student Government Association (SGA), Jim Pomeroy '81 was elected president and Liz Carrigan '81, vice president of the organization.

Tom Hefferon '82, a member of the SGA election committee, reported that 849 votes were cast in the presidential election, which had seven candidates, and 851 for the vice presidency, where there were eight candidates. Hefferon said that he was pleased with the turnout, since approximately 51% of the total student body voted in the election.

In the presidential election, Pomeroy achieved a two-to-one margin over both the second and third place candidates. A history major from Bronxville, NY, Pomeroy has been a member of the SGA for seven semesters and served as president last year.

Carrigan won the vice presidency by a similarly wide margin. An inter-

A NEW SCHOLARSHIP FUND was created this year by Thomas S. Wadlow '33, left, and his brother Lewis A. Wadlow '33, meeting here with Acting President James F. English, Jr. Given in gratitude for the financial aid the Wadlows received at Trinity, the scholarship is to be awarded at the discretion of the President, with the hope that recipients will also later want to help 路 others. The first recipient will be named during the 1981-82 academic year.

national relations major from Summit, NJ she has served on the SGA for four semesters and has been secretary of the organization for three terms.

The at-large election resulted from the passage of an amendment to the SGA constitution in early October.

Those in favor of adopting the amendment had argued that more student involvement would increase awareness and interest in the SGA and school issues. The at-large elections, it was believed, would give students an opportunity to actively express their opinions through candidates' platforms and subsequent issues brought before the SGA. SGA officers were formerly elected each term by the members of the governing body itself.

FACULTY SCHOLAR PRIZE AWARDED Sophomore Carol E. Baatz of West Springfield, MA is the recipient of this year's Faculty Scholar Prize at Trinity.

The prize is awarded annually by the faculty to the student who has shown outstanding scholarly achievement and potential as demonstrated by his or her academic work in the freshman year at Trinity.

The prize entitles the student to one free course at Trinity.

Ms. Baatz, a 1979 graduate of West Springfield High School, is a Coordinating Committee member and staff worker of the Women's Center at the College. She is also a member of AIESEC, an organization which seeks to promote international understanding and cooperation. She is an economics major at Trinity.

TOWN~GOWN

FORUM FLOURISHES "Stories We Live By"- the ways that stories and story-telling affect our lives - was the topic of the annual Town Gown Forum, which w~s held on five successive Tuesdays at noon in the Austin Arts Center during

Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk October and November.

The series, which drew an attendance of more than 200 persons each week, was the most successful in recent years. The lectures were followed by a light luncheon in Widener Gallery, where the audience had the opportunity to meet with the speakers and ask questions.

The first presentation was made by Dr. George Higgins, Jr., professor of psychology and college counselor, who spoke about the ways that psychology uses stories, including the concept of "case history." Next, Dr. Edward Sloan, professor of history, contended that history, rather than telling the truth about the past, creates and perpetuates myths about human experience.

Dr. Leslie Desmangles, assistant professor of religion and intercultural studies, analyzed the creation myths among an African people and described the ways in which stories shape their culture. "Whatever happened to storytelling?" was the question examined by Dr. Harold Martin, Dana professor of the humanities, who discussed changes in the storytelling techniques used in literature. The series closed with an examination of how stories are adapted from the page to the stage and screen, provided by John Dando, professor of English.

The lecture series, which received financial support from the Connecticut Humanities Council, was also broadcast over Public Radio. Dr. J. Bard McNulty, professor of English, came up with the topic for the series and sought the outside funding.

ALUMNI SURVEYED ON CURRICULUM Alumni from five classes (1965, 1968, 1971, 1974 and 1977) will soon receive a questionnaire from the College as part of the curricular review now being conducted by an ad hoc faculty committee.

The purpose of the survey is to determine how well Trinity graduates have been served by curricular programs under both the present "open curriculum" and in the pre-1969 era when requirements were still in place.

Responses will be sought in areas such as undergraduate course distribution, quality of advising, extra-

The various events raised more than $1,000 for local charities.

curricular experiences, strengths and weaknesses of their studies at Trinity, preparation for graduate study, and work satisfaction.

Data received from alumni will be added to the various other information compiled since the review began last spring. In the course of its investigations the committee has held extensive discussions with the Trinity faculty, examined curricular approaches at other institutions, and hosted campus visits by outside experts. Student input has also been an important part

of the deliberations.

The ad hoc committee will complete its investigations by early March, and will forward its findings to the faculty, which is expected to act on the recommendations before the end of the academic year.

Alumni who receive questionnaires are urged to assist the committee in its research by returning their comments as soon as possible. A high rate of return will provide important, firsthand perspectives on the quality of the Trinity educational experience.

Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk BAYEUX TAPESTRY MYSTERY SOLVED A new study of the iconography used in the Bayeux Tapestry has resulted in the unscrambling of a centuries-old question of identity.

The Bayeux Tapestry is the 200-foot long embroidery which chronicles the invasion of England

by William the Conqueror in 1066. A cloaked figure of a woman, who is identified as "Aelfgyva" in an inscription above her head, has been the subject of much speculation, since no prominent person by that name was a member of William's court in 1066.

In the October issue of the journal, Speculum, Dr. J. Bard McNulty, professor of English at Trinity, offers a solution to the "who is Aelfgyva" mystery which is causing quite a stir among specialists in the field.

According to McNulty, the Lady Aelfgyva in the tapestry is indeed not contemporary to the Norman invasion. She is the notorious Queen Aelfgyva of Northampton - the mistress, then wife of Cnut, who was king of England, Denmark and Norway at

the beginning of the eleventh century. Unable to bear Cnut a son, Aelfgyva took the offspring of a priest and convinced Cnut that he was their son.

The child was to become Swen, king of Norway.

She pulled the same trick again, with the son of a 路 workman; this child was to become Harold Harefoot, king of England.

McNulty maintains that the Norman designers of the tapestry interrupted their narrative to include the Aelfgyva story in order to discredit Norwegian claims to the English throne.

McNulty, who is a Chaucer scholar, pieced together his theory by examining the symbols embroidered in the borders of the Bayeux Tapestry.

In December, he presented his findings at the Modern Languages Association Convention in Houston. Convinced that the tapestry contains many such coded messages which have been dismissed by scholars as merely decorative, McNulty is currently studying other sections in the hope of casting new light on contemporary views of the Norman conquest.

William the Conqueror (seated, left) discusses his claim to the English throne with Earl Harold of Wessex. Ac路 cording to McNulty's theory, the cloaked woman in the next scene is QueenAelfgyva of Northampton, wife of King Cnut. Her deception with a priest (shown touching her face, a symbol of lewd behavior) and a workman (the border figure holding the hammer) discredits Norwegian claims to the English throne.

FRESHMEN INCLUDE STUDENT FROM PEKING Among the 453 freshmen who matriculated at the College this fall was a soft-spoken young woman who is Trinity's first student from the People's Republic of China. She is Jeanette Sui, a 20-year-old native of Peking, and the adopted daughter of

Madame Sun Y at-Sen. Jeanette came to the United States for the first time last year, to study English at a special program at Columbia University. In China, she had been enrolled at the Peking Foreign Languages Institute, where she was expected to complete a prescribed course of study and eventually become an interpreter. According to Jeanette, Chinese students settle on a

major before enrolling in College, and are selected for the university on the basis of that choice. Thus, she decided to study in the West in order to broaden her course and career options. Her American sponsor, a woman from West Hartford, then contacted President Lockwood to explore the possibility of Jeanette's studying at Trinity.

Because she has studied English for

Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk only two years, Jeanette is finding her first semester at Trinity to be academically "difficult." Her three-course load includes ~ourses in writing, American history and East Asian civilization. "But all my professors are being very helpful," she says, adding that students from her classes also lend a hand in helping her overcome language difficulties.

Life on campus seems to have offered Jeanette few surprises, other than her intital shock at learning that the dormitories were coed, something unheard of in China. She likes the comparatively relaxed atmosphere of classes, and enjoys attending movies at Cinestudio when she isn't studying.

She hopes to return home each summer, but hasn't decided whether she will return to China after graduating from Trinity.

Enthusiastic about life in the U.S. as well as at Trinity, Jeanette reserves her harshest criticism for American

food, which she simply "hates." She and other Asian students on campus take an occasional break from institutional fare by getting together at a dorm equipped with a kitchen to prepare meals more pleasing to their palates.

According to Director of Admissions Howie Muir, the College has received several dozen inquiries this year from Chinese students regarding admission. However, it is not clear how many of these students will eventually enroll at Trinity or similar colleges. A major difficulty, according to Muir, is that, unlike other foreign students, the Chinese can offer neither transcripts of their previous schooling, nor the results of standardized aptitude tests, which are not available in China. The admissions office is currently exploring various options for getting assistance in evaluating the credentials of Chinese students who apply to Trinity.

COLLEGE HOSTS ALUMNI OFFSPRING In the fifth year since its inception, the admissions program for high school seniors who are sons and daughters of alumni continues to get a favorable response. This year, the late September event was attended by 74 high school seniors, approximately the same number as participated last year, according to Jerry Hansen, director of alumni and college relations.

Hansen, who administers the program in conjunction with the admissions office, began offering the weekend in 1976 to help high school seniors prepare for the challenge of choosing the colleges to which they would apply. The program attempts to give students an overview of the entire admissions process and, by offering them the chance to spend two nights in a dormitory, a firsthand look at student life. The weekend is not intended to "sell" the students on Trinity, Hansen says, but rather is offered as a service to alumni.

Most of the students who participated in the program this year were from the Northeast, but others came from as far away as Georgia, Ohio, Canada and Florida: During their three-day stay, the visitors experienced many different aspects of life at Trinity, through spontaneous interaction with undergraduates as well as pre-planned interviews, tours and discussions. On Friday, participants were able to attend classes, tour the library and the athletic center, and partake in counseling discussions. There were also sessions instructing the students on what to look for in a college and how to handle oneself in an interview, and another panel focusing on social life at college conducted by Trinity undergraduates.

JEANETTE SUI, Trinity's first student from the People's Republic of China, signs Matriculation Book, a traditional ceremony observed by all freshmen.

On Friday evening, the students took a closer look at Trinity's social life, since they had a free rein in activities. Before leaving on Saturday, they met with Acting President James F. English, Jr. and saw Trinity's varsity sports teams in action.

The Alumni Sons and Daughters Program has been consistently well-

Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk Along the Walk received, Hansen says. Of those students who participated in the program last year, more than 50% decided to apply to Trinity, and 85% of those who applied are now members of the Class of '84.

One of the participants in this year's program said that the most beneficial aspect of the program is that it promotes confidence. She added that most leave the Trinity weekend believing more in themselves, and are less preoccupied with trying to write and say what they believe colleges are interested in hearing, she said.

According to Hansen, the program gives participants a true view of what college is all about. The impressions formed are not those derived from catalogs or from parents, but rather are formed internally and are, therefore, more meaningful, he said.

CLASS AGENTS CONVENE In a combination tribute and education session, the development office hosted the third annual Class Agents Conference this fall for more than 40 participants.

At the opening dinner on Friday Alumni Fund Chairman Ned Montgomery, '56, presented various awards to class agents for their outstanding leadership in helping the College raise $512,764, $52,764 over goal, during the 1979-80 drive - the largest total ever achieved. Particular honor was given to the late Bernie Dignam '30, who died in an automobile accident last spring. An award, the Bernie S. Dignam Memorial Class Agent's Award was established in his memory, and will be given in the future to the outstanding class agent.

Why Major in ReliSJion'1

9

Last spring the Department of Religion sponsored a discussion for current undergraduates who were contemplating a religion major. On hand to share their insights were three alumni who had received their degrees in religion, but followed very different career paths since graduation: one was studying religion in graduate school; the second was a fund raiser in the non-profit sector; the third was a banker. Despite their divergent occupations, all three graduates made persuasive arguments for their study of religion. Because their remarks speak to the current concern about liberal arts education, we have chosen to share this conversation with the Reporter audience.

Robert Orsi '75 Ph.D. Candidate, Yale University

R

eligion has been defined in as many different ways as there are believers and there have been believers for a very long time. The definition 1 would like to offer you is the one suggested by the "great" - you w1.11 1earn when you study religion that you always introduce theologians by the designation "the great" - German theologian, Frederick Schleiermacher. Schleiermacher suggests that religion is "essentially contemplative." He goes on to say that it is in fact the contemplation of "universal existence of all finite things in and through the infinite and of all temporal things in and through the eternal. 路 Religion is to seek this and to find it in all that lives and moves, in all growth and change, in all doing and suffering." For Schleiermacher, in other words, religion is all that is deepest and best about culture, all that is noble in history and society.

With this in mind, one of the reasons I chose to study religion, was that it seerned to be the discipline that would allow me the greatest breadth ~nd .depth of intellectual pursuit. Absolutely nothing Is ahen to the study of religion - law, science, the family, politics, mass movements, art, dance medicine, human sexuality, baseball. And no period of history, least of all the present period, has been unreligious even if it has cast its religiosity in the fiercest anti,clerical or anti,deist terms.

A friend of mine who completed four majors in college because any one of them seemed too in, tellectually limiting, and then hesitated two years on the threshold of graduate school in an agony of indecision over which discipline to enter, was once asked in desperation, probably by his father, what it

was he wanted to study. A good son of the liberal arts education, he thought for a moment and then an~':ered very.simply, "the human." If you do study rehg1on you will study the human in all its most intimate and challenging moments. If you have come in quest of a liberal arts education, then devote yourselves to the study of religion.

In medieval universities they didn't ask people what they wanted to major in. You took your wax tablet and sat yourself down to learn at the feet of the nearest monk theologian you could find. It's no accident that colleges almost always look like cloisters and university libraries look like cathedrals.

Let me recurn for a moment briefly to the great Schleiermacher. He also wrote, "What is finest and tenderest in history, moreover, cannot be com, municated scientifically, but can only be com, prehended in the feeling of a religious disposition."

The story of religion, in other words, transforms the student of religion. To study religion well you must learn a reverent, respectful and open attitude. You will be morally challenged by ideas and people that will not let you ignore them. You will have to sharpen your critical abilities to separate the wheat from the considerable chaff that clutters our field.

You will have to learn to be sympathetic with the visions of Tibetan Buddhists, Swiss Calvinists, French Catholics, and many others, and confident enough to challenge them in their vision. You will have to train yourself to think unaccustomed thoughts and state them with unusual precision.

You'll have to think but you'll also have to feel as well, and meditate and contemplate.

Getting a bachelor of arts was always meant to

have existential consequences. The study of religion will facilitate this transformation in case you're wondering whether or not a religion major will contribute anything towards a livelihood. Here are a few practical suggestions.

First of all, while you're in college you can seek out a wide variety .of internships. For example, the central administrative offices of American denominations are always doing studies and surveys and preparing reports on a fairly wide variety of subjects. You might be able to get work as a research assistant. On a more secular side for religion majors in college, there are possibilities with the International Red Cross or even local consumer groups that might be willing to take on an intern.

All this I think is appropriate for the student of religion as I have defined it. You can do neigh, borhood work here in Hartford or you could study at some of the great religious centers of learning in Oxford, Jerusalem or Rome.

As for life after college, and this is not meant to make you even more nervous, there are many possibilities. A religion major will contribute greatly to your getting into almost all professional schools including divinity school, schools of social work, law and med school, and even, if some friends of mine at Yale are any indication, into schools of business and public policy programs providing you sup, plement your religion major with a course or two in math, economics, engineering, computer sciences or statistics. But you don't want to get carried away with that.

Many corporations, I say this with mixed feelings, are now hiring trained professionals in religion to do analyses of the ethical implications of the company's investment portfolio, to assist in shaping internal company policy, to do personnel work and public relations. There are also possibilities in publishing, museum work, and social work. Finally, should you be so inclined, a Trinity religion major will prepare you absolutely excellently, I can assure you all from experience, for graduate work in any of the sub, disciplines in the field of religious study. This is an

option that can be challenging, exciting, and rewarding though I would be dishonest if I didn't tell you that because of economic and political factors the atmosphere of cohtemporary graduate schools is something less than pleasant - unless you go to the School of Organization and Management at Yale, where things are very pleasant.

But, I want to end on a note of hope. Some commentators, in particular A. Bartlett Giamatt:i, president 路of Yale, recently predicted a resurgence of academic employment following a particularly dismal period stretching between 1983 and 1987. In other words it is being predicted that just when some of you would be emerging from graduate school an entire new future in religious studies would be opening up. Even for an academic future in the department of religion, there's hope. And about hope, a religion major can teach you a lot.

Carolyn Pelzel '74 Director of Development National Association of Independent Schools

I

am a fallen religion major. When I was about to graduate from Trinity, I was working on two majors; one was in religion and the other in French language and literature. Naturally, this combination provoked endless questions about what I was going to do with my life. In a fit of frustration, I began to

11

12

tell everyone that I was going off to become a French nun. Unfortunately, many believed that.

Actually, I went back to my secondary school, and I am currently working in fund raising, public relations and alumni affairs.

I want to approach the topic from a slightly different angle than Bob, assuming that some of you may want to pursue a religion major, but you do not necessarily want a career in teaching or the ministry . I will also assume that while you want to declare a major in religion at the undergraduate level, you may want to specialize in a different discipline at the graduate level. The question then for several of you might be: how will the study of religion really help me now and in the future to advance my career?

Working in a field seemingly unrelated to theology, I have tried to analyze the application of my education in religious studies to the challenges of my current job. For me, one of the most beneficial aspects of the study of religion is the process of exploring numerous metaphysical and ethical questions within the context of different cultures and times. The ability to analyze and understand the meanings of these questions, to explore the root of a society, the root of a culture, gives one an important perspective on human experience.

The value of this was endorsed for me last week by a lecturer delivering a talk on the history of science. The lecture series of which this talk was a part focused on three major topics: human sexuality and human values, aging and human values, and women and minorities and human values. The speaker intimated that the future of the history of science now rests on somewhat unscientific grounds.

Scientists, he suggested, must join in a dialogue with theologians and philosophers in their search for the answers to our human problems.

So, what has this got to do with your educational and career plans? If I were to plan my education all over again, I would definitely pursue two majors, religion and another more "practical" one. (I am not sure that it is entirely appropriate to disassociate religion from pragmatism but, unfortunately, many do consider religion and philosophy impractical intellectual pursuits.) If in your search for a practical education, you give up your religion major, I think you will be making a serious mistake. Your practical major may enable you to get a job in an industry promising intellectual and financial reward and advancement; your religious studies background will give you the ability to approach your position with a critical understanding of human beings, a global perspective on your work and an ever-questioning mind.

Earlier this week I was talking with Professor Kirkpatrick about ways of conveying to the business community the significance of studying ethical and moral decision-making at the college level. We discussed the problems of communicating the relevance of religious and philosophical studies for the student headed into business. While there may not be any solutions, I believe you will have an edge

if you consider an understanding of the human condition fundamental to whatever profession you choose. I would hope you might consider a double major: law and religion; science and religion; chemistry and religion. In joining these disciplines together now, you will develop powers of perception more profound than those of your colleagues who have chosen a much narrower educational path.

Having focused so far on preparation for a career, I should comment on the value of the religion major in and of itself. Regardless of what I wanted to do professionally, I would major in religion again for the simple reason that I am not just a professional, but a human being interacting with other people.

The personal dimension in all of this is critical. All of us must decide not only what we are going to do professionally, but what we are going to be, for our families, for those we love and for those with whom we work.

I know that this is an age when we all have to be concerned with inflation, the effect it will have on us, and our ability to secure a good income. I hope, however, that in our pragmatism we won't forget our humanism, and the fact that whatever we do, we must be able to reconcile our actions with our values and be happy with the result.

Reid Birdsall '7 4 Manager, New Canaan Office State National Bank

M

y concerns are more practical ones, but let me say at the outset that it is possible to make it in business with a religion major. In fact, I agree with Carrie that it definitely is an asset. I guess I'm another fallen religion major; I did get a master's in religion, and was planning to go on for a doctorate.

But, around my last year of graduate school I was thinking about getting married, and after reading a newsletter telling about all the Ph.D.'s in religion looking for jobs, I decided to apply for a management training program in a bank.

That may sound like quite a jump, and some of you might ask how my background qualified me for this opening. To me, my most important qualification was that in my study of religion, I had learned to take a complex issue, understand it, and propose a solution to a problem. It's a matter of critical ability and this more than anything else qualified me for working in a management position.

One of the most important factors in any business decision is its impact on the community. Perhaps one of the prime values of a religion major at Trinity is learning to look at the whole of society, where it's moving, and how individuals can help promote healthy growth. When I was a graduate student at Drew University, I had a professor who was a paid consultant on ethical issues for a major chemical company. He spent a good part of his time advising company executives in public relations, in product development on the ethical issues being raised by what they're doing and what they plan to do. With the accelerated rate of change in our society, future planning has become more important, not just for the corporation itself but for its host community as well.

When students ask me if a religion major will help them in business, they somehow overlook the fact that their whole life isn't their job. For example, I am not just a banker. I may look like a banker but even though I am very dedicated to my job, it takes up only 10 or 12 hours a day. The rest of the time I'm involved with individuals and, as a result of my religion major, my life is fuller. I have more awareness, not only for the problems of the customer sitting at my desk, but also for the needs of my community.

Discussion Q. Is there anything that you would say to a student who has to convince a parent that majoring in religion is not suicidal?

A. (Birdsall) I imagine parents like that would expect their children to be in a school like M.I.T. aiming for a highly specific degree. People who are at Trinity College, on the other hand, are looking for a broad liberal arts approach, and I feel the religion department offers the broadest background possible.

A. (Pelzel) My response would be that religion is the kind of discipline which engages you in studies of history, literature, philosophy, science and economics as well. It teaches you how to think, how to write and how to articulate your thoughts. It engages you in literary criticism and linguistics. In every profession nowadays the most important requisites are to learn how to write and how to speak, and in my experience a religion major does this as well as any course of study.

Q. Other majors such as literature or economics do not carry a stigma, but religion does. Why? A. (Orsi) It probably reflects more about the culture than about the religion major. Also, it is important for students to keep their perspective. After all, your major represents only 12 courses out of the total undergraduate experience. When you fianlly present yourself to a prospective employer, you will have more to show than just the study of religion.

Though there may be a suspicion of religion majors in some quarters, the professionals I have talked with - lawyers, doctors, examining boards - all suggest that a religion major is directly helpful, that it makes a big difference.

A. (Birdsall) There is a misconception that a religion major is someone who is studying to be a minister or a rabbi, and somehow has not been able to make the grade or has had a loss of faith. Every once in a while someone will find out that I have a master's in religion and say, "What happened? Why aren't you preaching somewhere?" You just have to deal with it the way you'd deal with any misunderstanding about someone's educational preparation.

Q. Do you see the business world becoming more receptive to religion majors?

A. (Orsi) From what I arri. told this is already happening. With more students entering the job market than ever before with a broad range of academic qualifications, employers are shifting their views. The tight academic job market has also thrown more graduate students into the marketplace and corporations are now considering seriously people who come with advanced degrees in religion, history and other similar disciplines.

A. (Birdsall) One of the most interesting trends I have seen is that the corporate world is beginning to question the value of the M.B.A. They are finding that people who have been studying nothing but business have a technical command of economic forces, but are not equipped to deal with real life situations. The rush to the M.B.A. has made the degree less valuable in today's job market; the more broadly educated student has a better chance now than was the case a few years ago. •

Business and the Liberal Arts How do prospective employers view a Trinity education?

by James F. English, Jr.

A

s you are aware, I am only the acting president of the College, and only for one term. But for me, this means that once more, I find myself a trainee. In fact, even in my regular job at the College I'm still, at best, a novice, because I have only been in the academic world three years. Before that I was in business for 26 years. But I never really felt fully trained for that either, because while I studied a fair amount of philosophy and literature in college, and even a little Latin and Greek, I never took a single course in economics. So, I have no specialty at all.

But, as you can see, I do have considerable practical experience in a subject which I want to discuss tonight, and that is the relationship between an education in the liberal arts, such as your sons and daughters will work for here at Trinity, and the jobs they will seek when they leave us.

I am especially interested in the roughly half of our students who do not go on to graduate or professional schools. Those who do will tend to receive there whatever the professions or the employers think they need. And whatever the graduate schools require, we will, of course, provide. We have always done so, and our students have a fine record of acceptance by, and achievement at, these schools.

But what of the other half of our students, those who enter directly into a job market which is increasingly competitive and technocratic? Will they be well served by what they learn here as they seek to build stimulating and useful lives around careers in government, business, the arts, or social service agencies? I know this question concerns you, and it also concerns them and us. Let me offer a few brief observations.

First, an education in the libera.l arts and sciences is not an end in itself. It is a phase, in some ways a preparatory phase, in an ongoing process. It should increase one's chances of leading a full and useful life, of which one hopes satisfying and productive work will be a very important, integrated part, though by no means the whole. We should not, therefore, expect such an education to be aimed solely at training for that first job.

The second, and happy observation, however, is that a rigorous grounding in the liberal arts and sciences provides - in some respects almost as a byproduct - much of what is most important for successful cperformance of the jobs to which our students tend to go. They should have acquired here

the basic skills essential to any responsible work: the ability to read and reason carefully, to write clearly, and to observe and reckon accurately. Beyond that, exposure to the great minds and voices of the past should give them a sense of style that permits them to spot the fakery and pretentiousness which crowds in on us from all sides. And a knowledge of history and of the sweep of science should provide a poise which protects them from falling victim to the latest fad or fancy. If they know their tradition, they will have a better perspective from which to deal with the unexpected. They will have developed a capacity to keep on learning, and that is as important for success on the job as it is for happiness in life.

Conversely, many of the skills necessary for any job are best learned on the job or by informal study incidental to the job. One can read a few books or take an evening course or two. The most selective business schools make extensive use of the case system, and many encourage students to defer entering until they have had a few years of experience on the job. The things your sons and daughters learn at Trinity, however, are not easy to pick up later. They often require scientific laboratories, or language laboratories, or a sizeable research library. And, above all, they require fine teachers. It is almost impossible to learn about organic chemistry or Shakespeare by yourself. A teacher is necessary, and the quality of the teaching makes an enormous difference in the success of the encounter. It would be sad indeed to waste the fine teaching and other resources four years at a college like Trinity offer on subject matter which could be just as well learned later, on one's own. Students should learn here what they may never have a chance to learn later. They should prepare themselves for a lifetime of self-education.

Having said all this, let me return to the incontrovertible fact that it is not always easy for college graduates to get interesting and satisfying jobs. The competition is greater. For one thing, college enrollments are at an all-time high of 11.7 million students, which means there will be more men and women in the job market. And for another, many of the jobs in teaching and the arts which used to attract liberal arts graduates have been blotted up by inflation and the demographics. More graduates, therefore, are looking to business for jobs, but the style of business has become more competitive, more

organizational, and more quantified.

What are businesses looking for in their new em· ployees? Three things, I think.

First, beyond the basic thinking and com· municating skills I have mentioned, they are sometimes looking for other, more specific skills.

And most of these we offer, along with our traditional programs. We provide solid work in computers, statistics, accounting, and corporate finance. We are also, just this year, reviewing our curriculum to see if there are further adjustments we should make. I suggested at our Convocation, for instance, that we consider adding to our offerings in organizational theory, and also, perhaps, provide a survey of the Anglo-American legal tradition. It may also make sense for us to package some of these offerings in a small integrated sequence of courses, so that a Trinity student can major, let us say, in history or English, and still say that he or she has completed the minor program in what one of our sister liberal arts colleges calls "the administration of complex organizations." If such an option were available we might reduce the number of students who are crowding into economics majors, in some cases, one suspects, fqr the wrong reasons.

Second, business employers are looking for signs of commercial motivation. If they are smart, they don't object to a major in philosophy because of its content; but they may question whether a student in that major is likely to become enthusiastically engaged in, for instance, selling municipal bonds.

And the students themselves are also probing, some· times painfully, to try to discover their own real motivations. If they have always been in school and done the things they have been told to do, how are they going to know what they really want to do; who they really are? We have a career counseling service to help them. For openers, all freshmen take one of the standard interest inventory tests and are urged to talk with one of the counselors to explore what the results indicate. Later this year we will install a mysterious computer terminal named SIGI which will actually help students sort out career alternatives. In cooperation with our alumni office, students are also offered opportunities to spend a week or so during spring vacation in a business or other work situation to observe what it is like. Also, because of our location here in Hartford, we have

an extensive internship program. Many students spend eight or ten hours a week, for a term, in a business, a hospital lab, or a government or social service agency, completing some pre-established project under the joint direction of a faculty member and a host supervisor. Often they receive a course credit for this experience. But more important, they can test their own vocational interests at first hand and they can demonstrate to a potential employer that they do have the motivation to engage them· selves energetically and productively in the world of work. Many internships ripen into job offers and actual careers.

Finally, employers are looking for men and women with poise, with judgment, with a sense of proportion, with sound values, and with an ability to work harmoniously and productively with other people. These are the qualities that ultimately make successful managers, and these, it seems to me, remain the basic qualities that are best developed by a disciplined exposure to the liberal arts and sciences. It remains our basic educational mission to help our students open their minds to the best that has been discovered about man himself, about the human institutions he has created, and about the natural world around him. What better or more exciting task could there be for them or for us? We are confident that it can be done well on this campus.

I said at the outset that, alas, I have no special expertise. In one area perhaps I do. My wife and I have four children, and year before last they were all in college at once: a freshman, a sophomore, a junior, and a senior! And they were all in colleges near here, and very much like Trinity (except, at least then, even more expensive). I claim without hesitation to be an expert college parent. I know the complications many of you are enduring to have your sons and daughters here. I know that you have entrusted to our care the most precious thing you have. We on the faculty and staff are grateful for this trust. We delight in your young people. It is because of them that most of us are devoting our lives to this ancient college. • James F.

BOB READING, NEFBNewsletter Offensive Player of the Year, confers with N.E. Coach of the Year Don Miller during the Amherst game. Reading caught three touchdown passes in a five-minute span against the Lord Jeffs.

FOOTBALL Coming off a 2-6 campaign in 1979, with virtually the same personnel returning (minus the services of graduated All-America split-end Pat McNamara) not many people gave the 1980 Trinity football squad much of a chance. Going into the opening game against defending N .E. champion Tufts University on the Jumbos' home field, a Boston paper had the Bantams as 28-point underdogs.

In what many have called the biggest -win in Trinity football history, and definitely the most important and exciting win of the last twenty years, the Bantams defied their detractors with a stunning 16-14 come-from-behind upset of a powerful Tufts team that had won 12 consecutive games going into opening day 1980.

Bantam quarterback Peter Martin was the sparkplug of the fourth quarter surge. Trailing 14-0, Martin took the team 74 yards on 15 plays, including pass completions of 23 and 21 yards to Jim Samsel and Bob Reading. Martin darted over from

the one to make it Tufts 14-Trinity 7, with fourteen minutes left to play.

Tufts came right back at Trinity, but a valiant Bantam defense held the Jumbos for four, downs at the Trinity ten, led by junior linebacker Bill Schaufler. A shoe-string catch by fullback Bill Holden of a Martin pass culminated a long Trinity drive. Two plays later Mike Elia scored, and Trinity decided to go for the two-point conversion. Martin went back to pass, rolled to his left, and was sacked

by Tim Keegan, Tufts' All-America middle guard.

Behind 14-13 with scant minutes to play, and the ball in Tufts' possession, it looked like the end for Trinity. But a jarring tackle by Bill Schaufler forced a fumble by Tufts running back John Giusti with just one minute to play. Trinity defensive end Frank Netcoh pounced on the loose ball, giving the Bantams new life.

Martin completed a pass to Bob Reading, putting Trinity within field goal range. Then an incomplete pass killed the clock. With twelve seconds remaining Mike Cooke sent a 34-yard kick sailing through the uprights, and the Bantams had done the impossible.

Wins over Hamilton and Williams continued the Cinderella magic of the underdog Bantam eleven.

Martin passed for 319 yards and Reading had 10 catches in the home opener versus Hamilton. At Williams a shoulder injury took Martin out of the game in the first quarter, but back-up QB Gary Palmer passed for 91 yards and 3 touchdowns, as Trinity won 27-16. The Eph-men were 11-point favorites.

Trinity's only setback was a 20-17 loss to a firedup Colby squad. It was almost a repeat of 1976, when undefeated Trinity had been upset by totally defeated Colby. The 1980 win was the only triumph for the Mules this autumn. The Bantams rebounded against Union, winning 41 -7. Mike Elia notched three touchdowns for himself.

TRINITY CAPTAIN and MVP Paul Romano, left, watches from the bench as the offense takes its turn during Trinity's championship season. Above, Quarterback Peter Martin led New England with 1,414 yards total offense, passing for 11 touchdowns and running for 6 more.

Trinity returned home to take Coast Guard 25-8 under gale-like conditions. Peter Martin was the hero of that contest. The stage was then set for Homecoming, and Amherst. Peter Martin threw three touchdown passes and rushed for another, as Trinity swamped the Lord Jeffs 35-14. Bob Reading caught eight passes for 144 yards and three touchdowns. A ll three scoring catches came in a four-and-three-quarter minute period at the end of the first half.

Wes.leyan hadn't allowed a touchdown pass or a 4th quarter point all season long. Peter Martin ended the first record by throwing TD strikes to Mike Eli a and Bill Luby. Tom Clemmenson ended the second with a 4-yard run in the final period of play. Trinity won, 28-6, and thereby clinched the N.E. small college championship for the second time in three years, and the twelfth time in Trinity history.

Honors aplenty came to the Cinderella Bantams during the regular season. Linebacker Schaufler was thrice named an ECAC Div. III weekly All-Star selection. He was ECAC Defensive Player-of-theWeek for his performances against Tufts and Wesleyan. Split-end Reading was also a three-time ECAC weekly All-Star in 1980. His one-man show

DOTTIE BUNDY, (right) Most Valuable Player, is the all-time leading scorer in Trinity field hockey with 72 points.

in the second quarter against Amherst earned him a Gold Helmet Award from the N.E. Football Writers Association. Kicker Mike Cooke, defensive back Paul Romano, and offensive guard Steve LaFortune were also named to ECAC weekly All-Star berths throughout the fall. LaFortune was the only Div. III offensive lineman so honored in 1980.

At this writing, post-season honors have also begun to pour in for the N .E. champion football Bantams. Trinity College and Head Coach Don Miller were runaway victors as T earn of the Year and Coach of the Year in a poll taken by the New England Football Newsletter. Miller, a three-time N.E. small college Coach of the Year previously (1970, 1974, 1976) has now coached three N.E. championship teams in his 14 seasons on the Summit (1970, 1978, 1980). His career coaching record at Trinity is an impressive 71-38-3. Wide receiver Bobby Reading led N.E. in yards receiving (718) and touchdown catches (8), and was voted Offensive Player of the Year by the NEFBNewsletter. Linebacker Bill Schaufler, whose 65 solo tackles in 1980 was the second highest seasonal total in 1980 (Roger LeClerc had 79 in 1959), was the runner-up for Defensive Player of the Year honors.

A host of other marks were achieved in 1980.

Sophomore Mike Elia led all N.E. Div. III players in scoring with 9 TD for 54 points. It was Elia's second Trinity scoring title in two years. Senior defensive end Frank Netcoh set a new Bantam record with 10

QB sacks in 1980. Peter Martin's 1,414 yards total offense was the second highest in Trinity history, and his 11 TD passes led N.E. He also scored 40 points this fall, the most ever by a Bantam QB. Martin's passing already has him among the top ten in Trinity history with a year left to play. Junior Bill Holden was the third-ranked running back in N .E. this fall (81.3 yards per game), and his 1, 411 career yards rushing places him tenth on the all-time Trinity list. Sophomore Nick Bordieri set a New England College Division record with 30 punt returns in 1980.

For the second year in a row, offensive guard Steve LaFortune was awarded the Dan Jessee Blocking Award. LaFortune is only a junior, and will return next fall. Senior defensive back Paul Romano, the Trinity captain, was named winner of the "Class of 1935 Most Valuable Player Award."

Romano tied for the team lead in interceptions with five, and his unselfish leadership was instrumental in Trinity's unexpected championship season.

WOMEN'S FIELD HOCKEY Trinity's highly successful Varsity Field Hockey team continued its victorious ways in 1980 with the winningest campaign in the sport's eleven-year history on Summit Hill. With a 9-1 regular season

TRINITY'S CYNTHIA HUNTER controls the ball against Mt. Holyoke. Hunter was the team's number two scorer with 3 goals and 2 assists.

26

and a 2~ 1 mark in the Northeast Field Hockey Association Tournament held at Mount Holyoke, the Bantam women posted an 11~2 record, losing only to unbeaten squads from Wesleyan and Middlebury.

The Wesleyan match~up had all the earmarks of a classic encounter. Both squads were undefeated, as they had been when they met in 1978 and 1979.

Trinity won the first of those meetings, Wesleyan the second, and the rubber~game was set for this fall. Wesleyan emerged a 4~3 victor in a hard~fought and exciting game.

Senior forward Dottie Bundy was named Most Valuable Player of the year. Her 14 goals and 7 assists for 21 points set a new seasonal scoring record at Trinity. Bundy ended her four~year career as Trinity's all~time leading scorer with 53 goals and 19 assists for 72 points and 10 hat tricks. Another record~setter in 1980 was goalie Anne Collins.

Although only a sophomore, Collins holds the career record at Trinity for shutouts and saves, and set a seasonal mark this fall with 11 wins, 108 saves, 32 clears, and 6 shutouts.

Freshman Tracy Swecker, who was Trinity's leading scorer in the NEFHA Tourney, was named Most Improved for the season. Bundy, sidelined by an ankle injury after the first Tournament game, was named to the NEFHA 3rd All~Star team, as was freshman Amy Waugh. Bundy advanced to the 2nd All~Star squad when another player dropped out.

Head Coach Robin Sheppard has posted a 48~ 17 ~6 record in seven seasons. She has had one undefeated

team (1978), and was head coach throughout Trinity's longest varsity unbeaten streak: 16 games from 1977 ~ 79.

CROSS COUNTRY The Trinity Cross Country team won 9 meets this fall, the most ever by a Bantam harrier squad. Their .500 record is the best in over a decade of distance running at Trinity.

Trinity co~captain Alex Magoun, consistently finished among the top three in each race. At the Division III New Englands held at Franklin Park in Boston, Magoun finished 11th out of 150 entrants, setting a new Bantam record for five miles with a 24:47 mark. His efforts earned him an All~New England berth, the first Trinity player so honored in the modern era.

Kathy Schlein upheldthe honor of the Trinity women this fall. The talented junior from Short Hills, New Jersey, set a Trinity women's three~mile record of 17:55. She too was a top~three finisher in every race.

WOMEN'S SOCCER Trinity's women's soccer team emerged from their first varsity campaign with a 3-4~ 1 record, going 3~ 1~ 1 in their last five games. ~reshman Karen Orczyk

was the squad's leading scorer with 5 goals and 2 assists. Sophomore Sarah Koeppel set a Trinity record with 91 saves in seven games.

Junior co,captain Poily-Lavery was named the team's Most Valuable Player. Lavery anchored the Bantam defense that allowed less than three goals per game.

WOMEN'S TENNIS First year coach Kirk Cameron guided her women's varsity tennis team through a difficult building campaign to a 5,6 record. After defeating Amherst in their opening match, the Trinity women lost five in a row, three to Ivy League powers Dartmouth, Harvard, and Brown. But the Bantam racqueteers rallied to win four of their last five.

Senior captain Eileen Kern, the team's number one singles player, was named MVP for 1980. Junior Barb Sherman was named Most Improved, while senior Mimi Rosebrough won the newly created Coaches Award for her contribution and dedication to women's tennis at Trinity.

WATERPOLO The defending N .E. champions from Trinity struggled at 2,6 during the first half of the 1980 waterpolo season. Then a strong 4,2 finish saw them ranked 8th in New England overall, fifth in Div. II, III, and an alternate for the New Englands at Harvard. When Amherst withdrew from the tournament, Trinity took the-vacated fourth,seed spot, behind Williams, Iona, and UConn.

Trinity lost in the first round to UConn. The Huskies were coached by former Trinity star Scott McDonald. The Ducks then took on Williams, in a controversial battle. Leading by two goals, the Ducks were hurt by the ejection of Dave Pike for playing with too,long fingernails. Williams rallied to win 15, 13.

In a consolation battle, the Ducks met the Gaels of Iona, coached by another former Trinity great, Rob Calgi. Led by the scoring of Len Adam and Kyle Parrow, Trinity triumphed 11,7, clinching 3rd place in N .E. on the season.

The team was led by co,captains Len Adam and Tic Houk, and featured fine offensive performances from John Peabody and Kyle Parrow. Mike Merin, Dave Pike, Ed Kaplan, Chip Lake, and goalie Lance Choy also performed admirably. It was a building year this fall, but all except the co,captains return with considerable experience, to continue water, polo's winning tradition at Trinity next autumn.

MEN'S SOCCER It was another frustrating season for Coach Robie Shults and the Bantam boaters. Still, rays of hope

could be seen. The squad was much improved over 1979. This year Trinity scored twelve goals to last year's eight, and sophomore netminder, John Simons, made an even 100 saves. Trinity defeated M.I.T. early in the season 3,2, and upset top,ranked W.P.I. in a shocker, 2,0.

Their best game, however, was a 2, 1 loss to UHart. Playing brilliant defense (especially senior Tom Chase), the Bantams led New England's top, rated Division II power 1,0 until the final minutes of play.

No MVP was awarded in 1980. Tom Chase was named Most Improved. Junior, Mohamud Farah, was the team's leading scorer with four goals.

advent of the Reagan Administration and the ascendancy of conservatives to chairmanships of key Senate committees have set off early expressions of alarm throughout the education establishment.

While much of the anxiety is simply an automatic reaction to a change in the status quo, there appears to be little doubt that Reagan's advisers intend to recommend some sweeping changes in the federal approach to education.

For one thing, a key plank in the President-elect's campaign platform was the elimination of the newly created Department of Education. Though it now appears that the demise of the department will not be as precipitous as was predicted earlier, DOE remains a tempting target in the promised Republican program to reduce the federal bureaucracy. While we are sympathetic with the concept of trimming fat from government, we oppose the reconsolidation of the Education Department into an umbrella organization like the former HEW. A return to the conglomerate style of management is doomed to fail; it would simply rebuild a structure that has already proven it is too unwieldy to achieve the hoped-for economies in operations.

Of more concern than organizational strategies, however, is the new administration's attitude towards some key educational issues, i.e., affirmative action, ' handicapped legislation, basic research, and approaches to funding. In the past, this column has been critical of federal interference in the internal affairs of higher education on the grounds that many of the regulations are superfluous and do little more than generate additional paperwork. Naturally, costs of the mandated programs are usually passed on to students in the form of higher tuition.

On die other hand, there's no escaping the fact that many institutions of higher learning would never have moved on issues such as affirmative action, sex discrimination and handicapped access without the strong pressure of federal regulation and the even stronger threat of losing federal funding.

Our fear is that in its legitimate aim to reduce government "strangulation" of institutions, the new administration will throw the baby out with the bath.

For example, one key Reagan education adviser has recommended such drastic steps as closing nowopen university files to students, eliminating

regulations on handicapped access, discarding rules on laboratory experiments on human subjects and animals, and discontinuing affirmative action programs. In theory, the government would still retain its philosophical commitment to equal opportunity. But, by pulling the regulatory teeth now in place, the new administration would give colleges and universities the power to interpret and implement such programs on a selective, individual basis.

The local rule concept is an appealing one.

Unfortunately, higher education generally does not have a track record of enlightened self-regulation.

And, given the added squeeze of today's inflationary economy, it is hard to believe that great numbers of institutions would continue to give high priority to many of the programs now mandated by the feds if the pressure were eased. For example, that $200,000 elevator to give handicapped students access to a fourth-floor chemistry lab might never be installed if the decision were formulated on campus instead of in Washington. And those campus personnel searches might not be quite so exhaustive nor the advertising quite so expensive if the guidelines were simplified or eliminated. Or if the funds for basic research dry up in favor of applied technology and engineering, how many colleges and universities could resist the temptation to shift their investigative resources to follow the new trail of federal dollars?

It's not that we attribute all the wisdom on such issues to those in government. Obviously, the time is ripe for a thorough housecleaning in federal departments, and we applaud the intentions of Mr. Reagan to cut the cost of running the country. At the same time we agree with Patricia Harris, Secretary of Health and Human Services, who stated recently that "elections might change the personnel and policies of government, but elections do not erase the issues."

In recent years, a broad range of federal support has been created to benefit students, teachers, institutions and researchers. There are certainly ways to streamline these programs, to make them more directly beneficial to the recipients with less governmental red tape and oversight. Somehow, Mr. Reagan and his team must find the key to providing clearer definition and direction to federal educational programs without dismantling them.

We have lost one of our class stalwarts, BOB HARTT, of Victoria, B.C., Canada. His wife, Lucille, called to tell us that Bob died September 10 after a long illness. I recall Bob at college as a lad of tremendous courage and determination who made the varsity football team in his freshman year. Those attributes pre路 vailed throughout Bob's life as he became a highly successful businessman in Canada, where he pioneered in formulating a chain of retail supermarkets. Bob's father founded the Julius Hartt School of Music, which is now a part of the University of Hartford.

The class of 1925 will miss JOHN AINLEY, who passed away February 6, 1980 - especially those of us who would greet him at the football games each fall.

John was an ardent football fan as was his wife, Muriel, who was always with him. The class expresses its sympathy to Muriel and the other members of John's family. 1925 also sympathizes with Viv路 ian Parke in the loss of her husband, ROSS '26 who died March 14, 1980. Ross was a good friend of 1925 and its secretary, with whom he worked and planned reunions on several occasions.

The class also recognizes the death of Dr. DAN MORTON '24, and expresses sympathy to his family.

KEN SMITH, Twenty-Five's perennial actor and former director of Baseball's Hall of Fame, spent the summer performing for the Cooperstown Opera Company (amateur group) at Cooperstown, NY. He and Emmy are now back at their "shooting box" at Candlewood Lake, near Danbury.

Edan Calabrese, grandson of our late classmate, BILL CALABRESE, rowed number five in the undefeated freshman heavyweight crew. He came to Trinity via Choate School where he captained the football and track teams. While at Choate, he was New England prep school champion in the javelin throw. Edan is a big young man at 6'3" and 200 lbs. plus.

He will be an asset to the varsity heavyweight crew this coming spring.

Your SECRETARY and his wife, Olga, celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary on August 25th at Alpine Village, near Montgomery Center in Vermont, at a party arranged by relatives.

Twenty-Five applauds the various rowing teams for their successful season and congratulates head coach, Norm Graf, and his assistants. Two of his crews won national championships at the Vail Regatta in Philadelphia - the women's varsity and the men's lightweight varsity. Trinity qualified 8 different crews for the finals.

News of the class is scarce; it would be appreciated if members would write and bring us up to date on what they are doing.

You know, one of the frus trating things about being a class secretary is that what you submit for publication will be read by your classmates some three months later. For instance, right now (August 31) I'm wondering how Don Miller's 1980 Bantams will handle this fall's football program. As you read this, my guess is that the season is already completed. My personal attention will be devoted to #20, Nick Bordieri, who as a freshman handled punt returns and kickoffs and also had some service as a utility back. He just happens to be a godson of one of my golfing foursome. Hopefully he'll come into his own this fall and perhaps evoke some memories of Trinity's old time greats such as WHITEY OBERG and CHARLIE STICKA.

It was a great shock to learn of BERNARD DIGNAM's death in an automobile accident. This writer remembers when he began the practice of medicine in Thompsonville. His specialty was industrial medicine and his primary patients were employees of the BigelowSanford Carpet Company. In addition, he developed his private practice of medicine and became a familiar figure throughout the town of Enfield. The

same energy that once propelled him as a hurdler on the Trinity track team was channeled into a full life as what he termed "country doctor," a good family man, good citizen, and our own Class Agent. We are all the richer for having been a part of his life.

Since Bernie's death, the magnitude of his service to Trinity has become increasingly evident. This was especially noted at the Class Agents' Dinner at the College in September. The following awards were earned by Bernie: For our class being one of four that had 100% partidpation in the Alumni Fund; for attaining the highest percentage of the class goal in dollars (194%); for the largest increase in dollars over last year's Alumni Fund; for the combination of best percentage and most dollars received (1934 Trophy).

Bernie would be quick to recognize the generous responses of members of the Class of 1930. The Class recognizes the persistence, concern and loyalty that made Bernie the best of Class Agents. At that same dinner, Acting President James English paid a fine tribute to Bernie Dignam. The Class Secretary accepted the awards and gave them to Frank Sherman of the College for presentation to Bernie's grandchildren.

Our fiftieth reunion seems to have come and passed by all too rapidly. Pleasurable experiences are like that. RONALD REGNIER did a great job of planning and putting it together. Thank you, Ron! Class Agent: J. Ronald Regnier, Esq.

The fund has grown very slowly over the years and needs some transfusions. The fund provides a partial scholarship to a deserving student.

Trintype For Judy Dworin, dancing is as basic a form of communication as speaking is for most of us.

"Movement is an important part of our expressive range, though culturally, we've been taught to differentiate what's for the mind and what's for the body," she explains. "I believe that to study movement in the context of a creative art form, which is dance, helps us to understand more about ourselves and other people. Dance is an integrating experience between mind and body."

This philosophy is evident in the emphasis and direction of Trinity's dance program, which Dworin has now directed for almost ten years. Distinct from the conservatory approach where professional training is em· phasized above all else, Trinity's program strives to balance a concern for performance with an appreciation of movement through the study of the history and theory of dance. Thus, class time is divided into studio sessions devoted to technique and per· formance, and seminars on the academic components of dance.

The decision to add dance to the curriculum came in the late 1960s and was, in part, a response to the admission of women to the College. In 1969, Trinity hired Clive Thompson, then a soloist with the Martha Graham Com· pany, as artist-in-residence.

Dworin, who had been dancing for almost fifteen years, trans· ferred to Trinity from Smith College to study with Thompson in her senior year.

In the fall of 1971, Dworin was appointed part•time instructor at Trinity, and given the charge of coordinating a dance curriculum to meet expanding student in· terest. Currently, the dance faculty consists of Dworin, who is full-time, an artist-in-residence, and a visiting guest artist. The program is enhanced by regular visits by prominent companies who give public performances as well as master classes for students.

The curriculum is geared to meet the needs of students with various levels of training and commitment to the dance, in· eluding those who "just want a

1~-------------------------course or two to find out what movement is all about." Though no academic major is Offered in dance, several students have designed interdisciplinary majors permitting them to combine dance with other fields, such as psychology or creative writing.

The majority of Trinity students who take dance courses are women, though men have not shied away from the program. In fact, Dworin can recall three students - all men - who had their first experience with dance at Trinity and went on to join professional companies.

Dworin' s own special interest is in improvisation, which was the topic of her master's degree thesis at Goddard College. Last year, she had the opportunity to teach and perform her specialty in Taiwan, where she was on year-long sabbatical leave. Between teaching commitments at the Neoclassic Dance Company and the College of Chinese Culture, Dworin and several other dancers and musicians choreographed and performed an improvisational

work, "Evolutions," which they presented at schools and universities in Taipei.

Dance therapy is another aspect of movement which Dworin has studied. With research support from the College, she has worked with a professor of psychiatry at Yale to investigate the role of movement in the regulation of hypertension. Though this research is not complete, Dworin believes that the relaxation potential of dance improvisation is still largely untapped.

"Dance is an art form that has had to fight a lot of biases," Dworin maintains. One of her least favorite is the notion that dance is "a non-thinking activity which most amateurs do to lose weight or stay in shape."

While not discounting health considerations, Dworin believes that viewing dance primarily as a form of exercise is missing the point. "Through dance, we become aware of our movement as a basic form of expression - one that requires discipline, but which also affords us a new kind of freedom."
