"In the past, pledges didn't always know what was going on and they were easily manipulated. This document is the first and necessary step of moving away from that arena and on to a newer, more positive one."

The guidelines presented in the document win only apply to this semester and will be reviewed at the end of the spring to assess its progress.

Kleinhuizen Plays At Continuing Michigan Pianist Series In Dimnent Chapel

By Jim Monnet anchor Writer The Michigan Pianists Series brought Sharon Kleinhuizen to Dimnent Memorial Chaple last Friday evening.

Kleinhuizen was the third performer in the series which will bring five Michigan pianists to Hope College over the year in h o n o r of M i c h i g a n ' s Sesquicentennial. The series is sponsored by the Hope College music department.

At the start of the program Kleinhuizen took her seat at the

piano without an introduction.

After a pause she started to play Samuel Barber's "Ballade, Op. 46. Starting softly the piece built up until the chapel was filled with the strains of classical music.

Besides the work of Barber, Kleinhuizen played three parts of both Wolfgang Mozart's "Sonata in C M a j o r , " a n d C l a u d DeBussy's " E s t a m p e s . " After the in f ermission she played a long series of pieces from Robert Schumann's "Carnival, Op. 9."

Praters Regain Active Status As Greek Society

By A.C. Vanderkolk anchor Staff Writer After a semester of suspension, the F r a t e r n a l Society h a s regained its status as an active Greek organization.

The fraternity had been on the campus of Hope College for more than 120 years, before being s u s p e n d e d for d i s c i p l i n a r y reasons stemming from pledging violations in the spring of 1987.

Plans to return as Greek society w e r e contingent on reorganizing the chapter and its' pledging progam.

A plan of reorganization was initiated by a 10-member ad hoc committee consisting of F r a t e r alumni, actives, and college r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s . Upon completition this December, it was submitted for approval to President Jacobson, Dean Beal, Bruce King, and other members of the administration.

The reorganization plan was aimed at getting the fraternity back on positive footing. While the plan has not been made public, its components include a new policy for i n t e r n a l discipline, and original, but positive pledging activities.

In general, both the fraternity and the administration look at the reconstruction process as a positive experience. President Jacobsen, in addition to being "pleased with the positive and forthcoming response," remarked that "in times past the Fraternal Society and Hope's other Greek organizations have m a d e s t r o n g and p o s i t i v e contributions, and hopefully they will continue to do so."

"Now that we're active, all the

members are really enthusiastic," said Jim Van E e n e n a a m , OKE p r e s i d e n t .

"We're going to try to work with the administration and student body as much as possible to make a positive contribution to t h e c a m p u s ' ' Dr. J a m e s P i e r s , faculty advisor to the Fraters, described the reorganization experience as creative, positive, and "exciting to participate In because the actives came up with the new ideas."

More communication with the administration and alumni are o n e of t h e k e y s t o t h e reorganization plan. Getting away from negative traditions are a factor, too.

"I think If we stick to our plan things should run p r e t t y s m o o t h l y . If w e k e e p communication lines open... we can make the fraternity a strong organization on campus," said Van Eenenaam. "I'd also like to see us (the F r a t e r s ) have stronger relatlonshps with the other f r a t e r n i t i e s and sororities."

While reorganization plans have been Implemented, a number of Issues have yet to be resovled. The fraternity still does not have an on-campus housing and expectations for rushing and pledging are unknown.

Overall, much work will be In store for the " n e w " Fraternal Society. "First semester the reorganization committee worked really hard. We had to break away from tradition a little bit," stated Van Eenenaam. " T r y i n g to g e t b a c k In clruclatlon will keep us busy."

Arizona Students Seek Ways To Control Campus Preachers attention by verbally abusing passersby.

To control the disruption, several schools have tried to keep the preachers to certain campus areas. In 1984, for example, the University of Virginia — after a volley of threatened lawsuits — limited freelance speakers to certain days, hours and areas of the lawn, UV's central commons area.

Billis and Shachat essentially w a n t UA o f f i c i a l s to do something similar, but the Gillis called the zealots, who evangelists promise to fight it.

"They will have to drag me often are students belonging to UA religious groups, "extremely from the mall," Robin Brand, a obnoxious and disruptive to UA med center employee and students who want to relax on the occasional campus preacher, w a r n e d the Arizona Daily mall."

A handful of preachers also Wildcat. "I am here to preach travel from campus to campus the gospel, and I have freedom of around the country, seeking speech to back me up."

Hoping to keep "extremely obnoxious" p r e a c h e r s away from students who don't want to listen to them, two University of Arizona students began passing out ' ' c o m p l a i n t f o r m s ' 1 to students on campus two months ago.

Students J a m e s R. Gillis and Keith M. Shachat hope to use the forms to get UA administrators to banish them to a proposed "speakers corner" on campus for anyone not directly sponsored by a university group.

College Journalists In Two States Fight To Open Meetings And Public Documents (Editor's note: Since J a n u a r y Is "Freedom of the Student P r e s s Month" The anchor will run a special article each week The following story is the second of a three-part series «ipn»ng with issues of interest on the subject of f r e e d o m of t h e p r e s s , censorship, and libel.)

College journalists were at the forefront of fighting for access to meetings and records in at least two states in 1987.

The Mississippi Supreme Court ruled that the College Board, which governs the state's eight publicly-supported universities, must adhere to the state's open meetings law The case arose from when a reporter was excluded from a meeting between the board and university presidents.

Music And Politics

The Little Steven Interview (Editor's note: The last few years have witnessed a r e s u r g e n c e of s o c i a l consciousness and political activism in popular music.

One of the best known efforts to date is the organizing and distribution of the "Sun City" album, which strongly condemns apartheid in South Africa. The album has raised over $500,000 for religious, union, and human rights groups in South Africa.

The main performer behind the project was Steve Van Zandt ("Little Steven"), long known for his skill as a m a j o r album producer, and a s a guitarist for Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band.

In the final installment of a two-part Interview, we listen in on one of A m e r i c a ' s most politically active musicians.)

Q: On your latest album, "Freedom - No Compromise", you have focused, among other things, on the struggle of Native Americans in this country. In concert, you've drawn parallels between the system of apartheid in South Africa and our own government's treatment of these people. Could you elaborate on those parallels and how they came to your attention?

A: There are several things happening, and t h e y ' r e all connected. That was how the album got started; I began to see parallels between the Native American situation in the U.S. and the Black situation in South Africa: the reservations here and the homelands there, and the relocations. Tribal governments here and township councils t h e r e , b o t h i m p o s e d by government agencies that supposedly have their best interests in mind; which is, of course, a lie. Like the BIA imposing a white Anglo societytype government on Native Americans completely against their will. The same thing happened in South Africa. So I ended up going down there to complete my research, and that's how the album got started.

I feel that the indigenous people's genocide all around the world is directly related to the destruction of the enviroment. I see those two issue as one issue now. The more I investigated it the more it became an issue. All indigenous peoples have the same philosophy, all around the world: that the E a r t h is sacred, that they're here to protect it; that the E a r t h is alive and that we have a relationship with it.

Freeze Frame

And as the indigenous people all over the world disappear, the enviroment disappears. I don't see t h a t a s c o i n i n c i d e n t a l anymore, it's the same issue, and its' the most pressing issue of our time. It's the thing that need the most action of anything. As serious as racism is, which we're also always fighting, it's the most serious issue.

Q: South African students have been among the most voacal opponents of the Botha regime, at risk of torture and death. Students in France, Spain, Chile, Mexico, and Korea have demonstrated enough solidarity to bring their countries to a halt over unpopular education policies. Do you think it will take another war to unite students in this country?

A: That's a good question. It really seems very difficult these days to motivate people. Untile people are dying, or until you turn on the water faucet and it comes out blue, it's difficult. I've been working on this for years; when I started talking about Latin America, I can't tell you how difficult it was to say, "We're murdering people in Latin America." Either people

P a r t of it is the media, but part of it is reality. We do have a crisis situation on the campuses Q: Do you think Ronald which is only now starting to Reagan is still as popular on change. I went to several college campus now as when he captured campuses around 1984, and I a lot of the student vote in 1984? found everybody in business schools; liberal arts were dying A: When you think that college or a thing of the past. And the students and the black middle questioning of the government, c l a s s h e l p e d e l e c t t h i s of your parents, of yourself, that administration... I mean, it's bad I thought was happened enough for college students, but automatically in college, wasn't the black middle class electing a happening. There was a priority racist president? A president to succeed, to get a job, make who voted against the Voting money, and not to worry.

Rights Act, the Civil Rights Act, We're just starting to come out the Housing Act; who's been of that a little bit with the trying to get rid of affirmative divestment movement, a little bit action ever since he's been in; on Latin America, a little bit of who supports tax breaks for the CIA stuff. But, man, there schools that refuse tointegrate... were years where it wasn't the cat is racist, there's no happening, and it wasn't totally debating it. Ke bought the black something that the media made middle class, and their memory up; it was the truth. I think â&#x20AC;&#x201D; all those years of struggle, maybe we've gone as far as we gone. could in that direction and now it's time to start turning around.

It's gotta be, because I was very suprised â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I thought rebellion wa in the genes, you know?

The Supreme Court has ruled that censorship is allowable in high school papers. Do you feel this will affect college newspapers?

"It depends if the school newspaper was the le students only literary outlet. If |hey had another means it would be different. Students have the need to express their feelings and opinions in some form without restrictions."

"No. I can't think of much cause for censorship in high school papers. I think it violates the F r e e d o m of the P r e s s (Amendment).

" I think it's a dumb idea.

People should be able to say what they think. It doesn't encourage students to develop their own opinions and ideas. It shouldn't affect college papers because they encourage free speech."

TomOchs Sophomore 44

I think it's a mistake to censor high school or college p a p e r s b e c a u s e it s t i f l e s creativity."

Melissa VUlarreal Sophomore "No. I think the students have a right to say whatever they want to say. This shouldn't affect colleges, but it probably will."

Jan. 20, 1988

Little Steven Continued From page 8 Q: But his supporters say he improved the economy.

A: What is that? How obvious Is it when he's buying people's values and morality? Buying their sense of justice and democracy? T h e y ' r e selling their souls — that's what went down. And they bought It pretty cheap, if you ask me.

Q: What obstacles did you encounter in organizing "Sun City"? What rewards did it provide, and what Und of advice would you give to students trying to organize on campus?

A: In the end, I wa lucky,

because for once in my life, my timing was right. Right at the time when the record was nearly finished. South Africa was in the news, so all of a sudden people who m a y n o t h a v e b e e n previously m o t i v a t e d got involved. We still had trouble with the record companies — everybody passed on it except the last one we went to. The way to do it is just start doing it — don't wait for a consensus or an agreement.

Y o u ' v e got to do y o u r homework, check things out as thoroughly as you can until you know what you're doing is right, and then do it. The once it's happening people will join you.

But to get a consensus, to have meetings and agreements before you do something, sometimes slows down the process to the point where it just won't happen.

You'll get stuck before you leave the starting gate.

Q: You've been working very hard to get your message across, as have people like U2 and Peter Gabriel, and the veterans like Bob Dylan and Jackson Browne.

The Grateful Dead have a new song about nuclear weapons, and the rejuvenated Crosby, Stills, and Nash have been singing about South Africa. Do you see this as a sign of a new committement among musicians

romote more social and to pron political causes, or is it a passing thing. Do you see more Live Aid and "Sund City" efforts taking place?

again, but it's going to be a taste of it. And 1 think it's a possibility that more is going to get done this time, because we can learn from the 460's.

A: There is no doubt in my mind that it's going to continue.

Consciousness is a funny thing — there's no going back. You can't open your eyes and start to see, and then suddenly forget it.

Education doesn't work that way... it's a very dangerous thing. Once you've seen an injustice, you can't stop seeing it.

1 think more and more artists are going to get involved.

I'm not going to say that it's going to be like the 'GO'S all over

You can't do everything at once; that was such a revolutionary time, so much changed. Just opening up ideas was accomplishment enough, to think that somebody could open up ideas, raise the question, and provide all the solutions at once is a little too much to ask. So we've got to do that now, a little bit at a time.

Here's the scoop: city in tne form of the Michigan Laker star Earvin "Magic" The Hope College m e n ' s volleyball club, led by such stars as Curt Blankespoor, Chris Pieters, and Jonathon Tagg, was able to do what even the University of Southern California couldn't do in the Rose Bowl.

That is, beat the Spartans of Michigan State.

What's that?!!

T h a t ' s r i g h t ! The Flying Dutchmen downed the Spartans in a best of five match, 15-8,15-11, 4-15, 14-16 and 15-8. Hope had a chance to sweep the match in three games, but the bench Ben J, Hanneman wasn't quite strong enough.

Sports Editor Think about the implications of this for a minute!

First of all, how often does a

Division III school, with barely enough students to fill a couple of departments at a university, even get to compete on the same level with a Big 10 team, let alone defeat them?

Winner

Second of all, in downing the mighty Spartans Hope was able to do what neither the University of Indiana nor the University of Michigan could do. And those schools have more than ten times as many students.

My winner of the week: The Hope Men's Volleyball Club.

Certainly another winner, especially during the winter, has got to be skiing. Those of you who ski know exactly what I mean.

Now you must realize that I don't ski very often or even very well. I prefer something a bit slower, like basketball.

Of The Week

Dutchmen Now In First Place In League "The beat goes on," said Hope basketball coach Glenn Van Wieren, following Wednesday's , expected 98-68 trouncing of the Olivet Comets.

Indeed the beat does go on as the Dutchmen have now won four straight, including three MIAA games in-a-row.

"Olivet really came at us up front and made us work for everything," Van Wieren added.

"Our defense was the key, especially when we made the run ipull ahead."

Hope trailed the Comets for the first few minutes of the game.

Junior Jack Holman then ignited Hope's offense with a perfect three for three from three-point land and 17 points in the first half.

"Holman had a very nice first halp and shot the ball well. All our perimeter shooters were good when we got our big men in foul trouble," Van Wieren said.

Free throw shooting was also a key in the rather one-sided contest. The Dutchmen shot a blistering 94 percent from the

charity stripe despite, including six for six in the first half.

"They (Olivet) were giving us the outside shot. Our perimeter game had to be a big part because what they did on inside was very physical."

Hope, now 10-4 overall and a perfect 3-0 in the league, will take their league leadership on the road to face the Adrian Bulldogs.

"We've proved that we can win here at home," said Van Wieren.

Now we've got to go out and do it on the road. Adrian is going to be tougher than tough. They have always been tough. They're playing with momentum after b l o w i n g o u t G o s h e n on Tuesday."

In other action Wednesday, Albion dumped the Calving gMng them their first MIAA loss and second loss of the season.

(At Adrian on Saturday, the D u t c h m e n won t h e i r f i f t h straight game, beating the Bulldogs 98-80 to take sole possession of first place in the MIAA at 4-0.)

Before each trip to the fence to examine the architectural brilliance, I faced another problem, namely getting down the hill without wiping out.

That's right. A great way to beat the annual winter depression Is to have yourself a four star, top of the Nielson ratings, all out, undeniable gaudy, good old American rant.

Just let yourself go and rant.

Some of you may have grown up in homes where ranting is frowned upon. Well your parents were right to an extent. You shouldn't rant at dinner or worse at dinner parties, but I see nothing wrong with irrationally ranting in the privacy of your own dorm room. I was raised also to believe that only local politicians ranted, but some time in high school a friend got me into a joint rant.

We r a n t e d about classes, teachers, families, grades, the Steelers, Duran Duran, friends, enemies, snow, liberals, and even the occasional Michael Jackson Pepsi commercial.

Everything that bothered or nauseated us. No topic was beyond our verbal wrath. Down deep at the core of it all we ranted about responsibility.

Fortunately folks, there is a solution that I am recommending that doesn't cost $19.95 plus shipping and handling. Nor did I get a divine direction to share it with you to keep m e from being called home. Now before I share with you, and for the purpose of creating suspense, let m e warn all of you intellectuals that this technique isn't for everyone. It takes a certain kind of mental state for people to rant.

"RANT?" you say, "All that build up for 4 rant'?"

Interaction with other people like friends, family, classmates and teachers always carries with i t a c e r t a i n a m o u n t of responsibility that forces you to behave in a certain accepted fashion no matter what the circumstances. If you don't they label you socially immature, and you spend a s many years in second grade as you need to figure out that the world will

keep on spinning with or without you. It's a hard lesson, but one we usually master early in life (John McEnroe is a prime exception).

Taking responsibility and acting responsibly puts you under stress. It's a very necessary stress, but It still li good to vent it now and again.

Find a secluded room. Only one other person Is needed for you to rant not at, but in the general direction of. You nee4 someone to listen or you might think your r a n t is going unappreciated. It Is a lot of fun If the other person will rant at the same time a s you do. Whether you're ranting about the same subjects is Irrelevant.

Just start spouting off In a torrent about everything that ticks you off. Anger is a good place to start, but don't limit yourself. Rant about what you like in life. Rant about the g r e a t times you have had. It's usually best to finish a rant on good notes otherwise you might Just work yourself up into a rave.

Ranting and raving usually go hand in hand, but by my definition, raving is far worse.

Raving is a step beyond the purging e f f e c t s of ranting.

Raving starts when you start to take your ranting seriously. You start to believe in your own rants. Rants should be free and irrational. Verbal streams of conciousness.

Your rant will be finished when all of a sudden you run out of words. This could be in ten minutes or you may be going off on mini-rants throughout and e n t i r e d a y . I t ' s been m y experience that a rant has never exceeded twelve hours. For most one good half hour rant is. enough. Since I know I think different than many, I like to think that my twelve hour rants are on the f a r side of the average person's.

After a good rant sit down and rest for awhile. Assume responsibility for your words and apologize to your audience. Tell them you lost your head for a moment. Claim that you were stressing out. They'll buy it. Get on with the season then. Winter may be a disgusting season to people like myself, but it's no reason to stop living. Get out and do stuff, and if the urge comes again do yourself a favor and have a rant.

Letters To The Editor Homosexual Support Group A t Hope Once again the call goes out to all homosexuals, both gay and lesbian, that a group exists here on Hope's campus just for you.

The group's goals are three fold: first, to inform ourselves on issues directly related to being and living as homosexuals; secondly, to share with each other from the riches of personal experience the tears, pains, and the joys of being gay; and thirdly, to accept and support each other wherever we are on life's journey.

For those of you who would like to join us, we wish to assure you that confidentiality will be maintained, both within the

group and by the individuals who serve as contacts between the group and Hope's community.

The individuals to contact are: Wayne Boulton (7753), J a n e Dickie (7724), Chaplain Van Heest (7829), and Joyce Hanlon (7585).

Wrong Top 10 In response to Mr. Breen's article, "The Top Stories Of 1987," I was disappointed to read t h e c o m m e n t a r y on t h e traditional fall event The Pull and not find corresponding and equal space given to other traditional events that take place in the fall also.

These events, (Nykerk, AllCollege Sing, Homecoming...) certainly are just as newsworthy as The Pull. Admittedly, he and I may be prejudiced (him as a Pull participant, and I as a Nykerk participant) and our views may be narrow. However, it still seems to me there is a fine line between "news" and "events."

LAURA JOHNSON STEFFANS COTTAGE

Alumnus Has Fond Memories Of The Anchor And Hope College It was last Friday afternoon and the telephone rang at my home. As a rule, I don't answer ringing objects (including clocks) at the start of a weekend.

But some of my roommates do, and when one of them yelled for me I decided to find out who was on the phone.

"Hello," I said.

"Hello, is this Brian Breen?" the person asked.

"Yes, it is."

"Are you the editor of The anchor?"

"Yes, that's me. What could I do for you, " I replied.

Actually, I may not have sounded that nice. You see, I don't like discussing the newspaper at home. Especially when I'm in a hurry and it's Friday.

The man at the other end of the phone was Tom O'Brien from Providence, Rhode Island. He wanted to talk about the recent S u p r e m e C o u r t r u l i n g on cnesorship and freedom of the student press.

Tom was on the editorial staff of The anchor back in the early 70's. He said the news of the Supreme Court ruling brought back memories of his college newspaper days at Hope.

"Those were the days when Woodward and Bernstein were writing about Watergate," he said. "All of us on the staff we're dreaming about working for the New York Times or the Washington Post," he added with a laugh.

He said he doesn't get back to

Holland much, but still had a fondness for The anchor and the college. We talked for around 25 minutes about the newspaper and Hope, and current issues in journalism.

"Is DeYoung still the Dean of students," Tom asked. "No, he's now vice president of the college," I answered. He didn't seem suprised.

Tom talked about the problems The a n c h o r had with t h e administration in his day. He said one time they picketed Meijer's to get people to stop buying p r o d u c e picked by migrant labor. The f a r m managers weren't being fair to the seasonal, Hispanic workers.

"The president of the college called us everyday on that one," he added.

The real reason behind his call was to offer his help. "I know how tough it is sometimes," said Tom. "But if some people are upset, you're doing your job."

Tom gave me the addresses and phone numbers of some people who could help me, if needed. One was a lawyer named Leslie Cameron Curry of Grand Rapids (yes. Professor Curry's daughter) and the other one was Henry DeKok, who works for a newspaper in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

He demonstrated how helpful alumni can be at times.

More often than not, they're willing to lend a hand. Even if you don't need it right away.

And for once, this was a call I didn't mind taking. Even on a Friday.
