Hope alum pushes for disinvestment policy

by Jim Monnett editor Dr Allan I'.oesak s honorary degree has sparked a Hope College alum to renew the t all to the Board of Trustees to pass a formal policy against investment in countries that do business in the Republic of South Africa.

Hope alum Rev.Donald T.Van Hoeven (class of '56), a chaplain at Western Michigan University, sent a letter to Boesak at Cape Town applauding Boesak's work in South Africa and denouncing "Hope College's economic support for the racist government of South Africa."

In response to Van Hoeven's allegations to Boesak, Hope College's Vice President of Business Jon Anderson said the College probably isn't invested in any companies involved in South Africa, but that the possibility remains.

Dean for Student Development Dr.James Bekkering suggested the discrepency probable lies in the purchasing of mutual funds that often encompass many different stocks. At any time a mutual fund that Hope College is invested in might have some stocks of companies that do business in South Africa.

To Van Hoeven the mere possibility of owning stock in a South African affiliated company is wrong. 44Hope College itself refuses to break its ties with racism in order to maintain its corporate benefits," he said.

Providing background material on Hope College's divestiture question, Bekkering said, "The Board of Trustees w r e s t l e d with this question several years ago."

In May 1985 the Board of Trustees resolved to do four items on the question of apartheid in response to a petition signed by 700 Hope students and to two letters from Student Congress asking the Board to clarify Hope College's position.

The Board reaffirmed a 1977 decision not to invest in any firms headquartered in South Africa and reasserts 4 'its strong condemnation of both the policy and practice of apartheid."

The Board also appointed the Trustee Aparteid Task Force to find other ways for Hope College to make a difference in South Africa a s well as to adopt the Sullivan Principles.

"The Board of Trustees," Bekkering said, "Voted to adopt a policy that would follow the Sullivan Principles "

Critical Issues Rita Nakashima Brock (left) and Nicholas Wolterstorff (right) are two of the speakers who will be taking part in the 1990 Critical Issues Symposium tonight and tomorrow.

Rev.Leon Sullivan is a black minister in Phildelphia who developed his principles as a guideline for socially conscious action in South Africa The seven Sullivan Principles were intended as an intelligent middle ground between the two polar views on divestiture. The one polar view calls for a complete financial pull-out of South Africa and the other view argues that only through involvement in these companies can institutional change be done.

The Sullivan Principles require companies to sign an agreement to follow them. Each of the principles addresses practical ways to integrate a company. For example, Principle III s a y s , ' ' E q u a l p a y f o r all employees doing equal or comparable work for the s a m e period."

Sullivan's seventh principle argues for divestment within two years of 1985 if aprtheid had not been ended by that time.

Hope history professor Dr.Earl Curry said that Sullivan himself later rejected his principles as unworkable.

"Sullivan c a m e to see that his own efforts to get companies to integrate wasn't working a s he had foreseen," said Curry.

According to then Hope College President Gordon Van Wylen in January 1986, "The Board of Trustees decided to not alter (the) policy in regard to investments... (with) a conviction that American firms who adhere to the letter and spirit of the Sullivan Principles are in a position to be a part of the force for change in South Africa."

A n d e r s o n c o n f i r m e d that presently the Sullivan Principles are the guiding force behind Hope College's investment portfolio.

Responding to Van Hoeven's statements about whether or not honoring Boesak is inconsistent without a formal policy against investment in South Africa, Bekkering said, "I don't s e e the two as related. They're both in the s a m e country, but the award is for Dr.Boesak's work."

"What the college is doing," Bekkering said, "Is affirming (Boesak) in a very public way.'* Faculty spokesman Dr. Stephen Hemenway could not respond for the faculty, but said, "Personally, I don't s e e an incon-

'We want the Board of Trustees to act morally to prevent the college from investing in companies in South Africa.'

-Rev. Donald Van Hoeven Van Hoeven said that the Board of Trustees needs to do more by passing a policy against investment in South Africa. According to him, without a policy, any investor for the College could choose to reinvest in a South African company at any time.

Speaking for people for total divestiture. Van Hoeven said, "We want the Board of Trustees to act morally to prevent the College from investing in companies in South Africa."

"The key is what Allan Boesak will do," he continued. Van Hoeven hopes Boesak will call the college to accountability.

In his letter to Boesak, Van Hoeven wrote, "While we all desire to see you recognized, it is also our responsibility to call the Board of Trustees to fulfill their responsibility as an arm of the church and to end their investments in the constitutionally racist government of South Africa. We ask for your help in the gaining of that goal.1' Van Hoeven said the Board is showing a "moral incongruity" by giving an honorary degree while refusing to pass an offical policy against South African investments.

sistency. The (award and the lack of formal policy) are connected. The giving of the award is a step in the right direction toward a g r e a t e r consciousness."

Hemenway said he hoped Boesak's appearance and the entire Critical Issues would help to renew interest in a formal policy of divestiture again.

He said Boesak's arrival was "a major victory" for those in support of divestiture as well as for the college overall.

Commenting on the possible inconsistency Bekkering said, "What I find interesting is that people on both sides are in favor of dismantling apartheid. A lot of well-informed, outstanding people have opinions."

Bekkering doesn't think that a formal policy against South African investment is necessary.

He said, u r i n so thrilled to see the changes and the way the political winds are changing...It looks politically like things are moving in the right direction/' so Hope should step back and see what happens.

Curry dissented, "Nothing has

News Boesak to receive honorary degree for work

by Carrie Maples news editor An honorary doctorate of divinity will be bestowed on Rev. Allan Boesak tonight at 7 p.m. in Dimnent Memorial Chapel. The awarding of the degree will be part of the 1990 Critical Issues Symposium. The theme "The Quest for Justice: Christian!

V o i c e s " is particularly appropriate in light of the fact that Boesak is a South African minister.

Boesak was originally nominated to the Committee on Honorary Degrees and Citations

by Dr.David Meyers, professor of psychology, in July 1987. The Committee unanimously voted to r e c o m m e n d Boesak for an honorary degree in October 1987, but the Board of Trustees tabled the motion, pending an investigation of Boesak's character. His support of the united Democratic front was questioned because it might have masked support of the then illegal African National Congress.

In late fall of 1988, the religion department submitted a report to Provost Jacob Nyenhuis endorsing Boesak's character. The faculty as a whole endorsed Boesak for the degree early in January. Finally on Jan. 27,1989, the Board of Trustees approved

the nomination and set tentative plans for the awarding during the 1990 Critical Issues Symposium.

Boesak is the president of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches. Dr.John Jacobson, president of Hope College, said, "In giving him the degree, we are recognizing his leadership role in both the church, and the World Alliance of Reformed Churches."

As one of the predominant church leaders in South Africa, Boesak also held several other important offices including national president of the Association of Christian Students in Southern Africa and consultant to the World Council of Churches.

While in South Africa on sabbatical last year. Dr.Jane Dickie, professor of psychology, met with Boesak. Dickie is a member of the organizing committee for Critical Issues and had this to say, " If we're going to talk about Christian voices in the quest for justice, then I think having Boesak here to speak to that issue is very important. It's a key Christian issue; it's a key justice issue, and Boesak is one of the key spokespersonson the topic. He represents, in the things that he's said, the selfless giving that we associate with Christianity. That is, he has spoken out at great risk to his

own personal well-being and safety."

Boesak is very influential in South Africa. He has spoken out against apartheid and encouraged non-violent responses from the p e o p l e , i n c l u d i n g participating in a hunger strike last spring.

"My guess is that he will helppeople understand that the release of Nelson Mandela is just the beginning of the process that must carry forward considerably before there is to be justice for black people there," said Dickie.

In r e c o g n i t i o n of h i s humanitarian efforts, Boesak has received several awards, including the Human Image Award from the NAACP and the RF Kennedy Human Right Award from the RF Kennedy Foundation in Washington, D.C. Boesak earned his doctorate in theology from the John Calvin Foundation, Thelogische Hogeschool at Kampen, the N e t h e r l a n d s . He has since received honorary degrees from schools including Yale University and University of Geneva.

Rev. Dr. Allan Boesak will speak tonight after accepting an honorary degree.

In addition to his remarks following the awarding of the degree, Boesak will be speaking twice during Critical Issues. The chapel doors will open at 6 p.m. tonight.

Brief History of the divestiture issue at Hope College

1977 - The Board of Trustees adopted P r i n c i p l e s on its own initiative.

Divestiture issue raised by Hope alum continued from pg. 1 happened in South Africa yet to warrant a change" in his desire for Hope College to divest completely.

According to Van Hoeven, the other two Reformed Church of America-affiliated colleges, Northwestern and Central colleges, have passed formal policies against investment. These policies align those colleges with the RCA's 1980 General Synod

resolution for divestiture. This resolution was affirmed by a 1988 resolution.

Concerning the RCA's resolutions, an October 1985 memorandum to Student Congress from the Board said, 44At times, the Board confronts conflicting concerns and views (from the RCA's). When this does happen, it seeks to address these with its best judgment."

"It takes people with more expertise than I have to really

wrestle with these kinds of issues," Bekkering said.

Until Hope passes a formal policy, Van Hoeven refuses to donate money to Hope College.

He calls himself a "dutiful patriotic HopeColleg e man " Van Hoeven served as the head resident of Kollen Hall from 1962-65 while attending Western S e m i n a r y f r o m w h i c h he graduated in 1965. He also served as a Hope CoUege assistant football coach during those years.

Summer research grants offered (HOPE) - College students will benefit from a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) grant the Hope College chemistry department has received from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for j int faculty/student summer research projects.

The summer research program for both Hope and nonHope students helps the participants develop research skills and a sense of what research involves. The $31,000 grant the department received will pay

summer stipends for 10 students-five from Hope and five from other undergraduate programs.

Dr.Michael Seymour, associate professor of chemistry at Hope College and director of the program, said that the department is currently seeking s t u d e n t s for the p r o g r a m .

Seymour noted that area students attending colleges or universities elsewhere might find the non-Hope positions an ideal opportunity. " P a r e n t s and f r i e n d s of students who know of sometadv

that would be interested should contact met," said Seymour, who can be reached through the c h e m i s t r y d e p a r t m e n t at (616)394-7630. Each student will be paid a $2,400 stipend for the summer, and will be employed for 10 weeks.

The college's biology department, which also sponsored such research last year, plans to again offer a similar program, pening funding by the NSF. Persons interested in the biolody program whould contact Dr. Christopher Barney, at (616) 394-7720.

Former Berlin Parlaiment member speaks on Eastern Europe (HOPE) - Dr. Wilhelm A.Kewenig, who was a member of the Parliament of West Berlin for eight years, will speak at Hope C o l l e g e on t h e n e w dynamics of power in Eastern Europe on Monday in Winants Auditorium of Graves Hall.

Tomorrow at 4:30 p.m. in the Maas Center auditorium, he will participate in a panel discussion titled "The Changing F a c e of Eastern Europr." Members of the Hope faculty raised in Germany or Eastern Europe, or with expertise in European/Soviet studies, will also be involved in the discussion.

The public is invited to both events, and admission is free.

Kewenig will be at Hope College a s a Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow from Monday, Feb. 26 through Friday, March 2.

During his stay he will also address the Holland Rotary Club on

Thursday, March 1, and will speak to Hope classes while on campus.

With dramatic changes occurr ing in central and e a s t e r n Europe, and with 1989 having been the 40th anniversary of the establishment of the Federal Republic of Germany, Kewenig will provide timely assessment of both West Germany's relations to the other nations of the world and its remarkable social and economic progres. His visit is made possible by a grant from The German Marshall Fund of the United States to the Woodrow Wilson N a t i o n a l F e l l o w s h i p Foundation, as part of a major effort to increase understanding between prominent Europeans and young Americans.

Kewenig was a member of the Parliament of West Berlin from June of 1981 through June of 1969.

He was admitted to the German

Bar in 1963, and is currently a p a r t n e r in a law f i r m in Frankfurt, West Germnay.

His r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s a s a member of Parliament included serving as senator for science and culture, senator for science and research, and senator for the interior.

He served on the German Council of Science, the Arbitral Tribunal for the Agreement on German External Debts and the Investigative Commission on Constitutional Reform of the German Federal Parliament.

From 1971-B1 he was professor of constitutional and public international law at the University of Kiel, and was director of the Kiel University of International Law. From 1974-75 he was also president of Kiel University.

He is a member of the Goethe Institute, the S t e e r i n g Committee of the German Socie-

ty of International Law, the Scientific Board of Directors and the Board of Governors of the German Society for Foreign Politics. Since 1973 he has been co-editor of the German Yearbook of International Law. K e w e n i g studied law and political science at the Universities of Freiburg, Paris, Bonn, Cologne, Beirut and Harvard.

Fellows sponsored through German Marshall Fund, are successful ment and women from business, journalism, public service and other professions who are placed on the campuses of small liberal arts colleges for a week of intensive dialogue with students and faculty.

The Fellows are scheduled for f o r m a l p r e s e n t a t i o n s in classrooms, on panels or public platforms, and informal encounters at meals, in student centers, clubs, dormitories, in-

dividual conferences and social functions. The variety of scheduling allows the Fellows to explicate their ideas fully, and prov i d e s the o p p o r t u n i t y for students and faculty to obtain a better understanding of the r e a l i t i e s of g l o b a l i n terdependence.

The German Marshall Fund was established in 1972 by a gift from the Federal Republic of G e r m a n y to c o m m e m o r a t e American postwar assistance under the Marshall Plan.

For more than a decade, the Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellows program has brought about closer relations between the academic and non-academic worlds, between campus and community, between academic theory and practical reality.

Since 1973, approximately 200 colleges have participated in the program.

Survey reveals evironmental concerns of college students Jon O'Brien staff writer The overwhelming majority of America's college students much maligned as materialistic, socially u n c o n c e r n e d and ideologically disconnected, are in intensely concerned about mvironmental quality, according to a survey conducted during November, 1989 for the National Wildlife Federation (NWF), the nation's largest environmental organization.

The survey compiled by the Hughes Research Corporation was conducted via telphone with 500 undergraduate students from four-year universities around the country.

Ten students were surveyed, randomly selected from the campus phone listeings, at each institution.

TV ^ survey covered a widp

range of environmental subjects: everything from current problems with government to problems foreseeable in the near future. In particular, the survey ends with a discussion of the availability of information on environmental problems and their appropriate solutions.

"Students overwhelmingly agree (94 percent) that they can make a difference when it comes to protecting the environment," the report said.

The study shows that there is a desire for more lectures or educational programs involving

forts to do this?" The responses were: very likely (28 percent), somewhat likely (56 percent), neither likely nor unlikely (10 percent), somewhat unlikely (4 percent), and not at all likely (2 percent).

is called Cool It. The other two schools involved in the program are Kalamazoo College and the University of Michigan.

This is just one program on Hope's campus. The college is actively involved with recycling office paper, plastics, and metal

cans. It is obvious that this is not all that can be done about the environmental problems, but it is a sign that we are trying to make the world liveable.

There is a strong desire on college campuses for the government to become more active in its legislation passed for protect i n g t h e e n v i r o n m e n t by regulating the industry.

At the s a m e time the survey found that most college students thought that primary responsibility for protecting the environment was put upon "all of us" (60 percent). The federal government was second with 24 percent.

Many e n v i r o n m e n t a l i s t s agree. If everyone sits around waiting for someone else to do the job, it will never get done.

Just because someone else is not working to help the environment does not mean that everyone should not do their part.

Peace Corps recruits college volunteers Pam Lundberg assistant news editor "Peace Corps is more than just a good idea, it's making a world of difference," said a P e a c e Corps slogan.

The P e a c e Corps held an informative recruitment meeting Friday. A P e a c e Corps film was shown as well as a question and answer period. The P e a c e Corps was started in 1961 by John F. Kennedy.

Its goals are to promote world peace and friendship.

Peace Corps helps the people of various countries meet their needs for trained men and women, promote* w better understanding of the American people in other

countries and promotes better understanding of other people in other countries for Americans.

P e a c e Corps volunteers must be at least 19v have leadership qualities, be very flexible and patient, have a great deal of inner s t r e n g t h , and m u s t know themselves.

A degree and volunteer experience is appreciated because 80 percent of Peace Corps jobs require c o l l e g e education.

Volunteers, in order to be placed in a specific job, must possess the various skills needed for the job. Most jobs are available in the areas of math and science as compared to jobs in the liberal arts fields. For every sue math and science jobs there is approx-

imateiy one liberal arts job, auu for every one math and science applicant there are six liberal arts applicants.

The P e a c e Corps now has placed 60 people in jobs in over 60 countries. The volunteers are placed in their respective jobs for 27 months. Their training is in 3 parts: cross-cultural, skills needed and language. Approximately 80 percent of the training is done here in the U.S., while the other 20 percent is done on the job site.

In o r d e r to a p p l y for a volunteer position in the P e a c e Corps, one must clear medical and security screening, be free of debt except student loans, be free of legal claims including credit

c a i d s and car payments, and be legally free and able to leave the country.

All expenses related to travel and stay while in the P e a c e Corps is paid for the volunteer.

In a d d i t i o n , the v o l u n t e e r receives $200 for each month of service.

P e a c e Corp volunteers work in a variety of positions, including agricultural work, teaching and health professions. There are varie.l opportunities for jobs in medicine and dentistry.

Most Peace Corps volunteers come back to the United States with a new understanding of the w o r l d a s a w h o l e a n d of themselves.

Students help homeless

by Pam Schmidt staff writer While many Hope students are making plans for traveling south for spring break, 20 to 30 students are making travel plans that don't include sun and sand, but rather helping homeless people in SUten Island, New York. They will be participating in a work p r o g r a m s p o n s o r e d by the Chaplain s office.

The students will be working at a ministry called Project Hospitality at Brighton Height's R e f o r m e d Churh of S t a t e n Island. The ministry is large, staffing approximately forty-five people. It is located near the Staten Island ferry dock where homelessness has been a serious problem in past years.

The group will leave March 16 in three college vans and return March 24. While there, they will stay at the church. Their time will be spent painting, doing yardwork, working in a soup kitchen, and working with homeless people, exposing the students to a variety of approaches to the problem of homelessness.

The goals of this program are " t w o - f o l d , " a c c o r d i n g to Chaplain Van Arendonk, where students will 'iearn from their experience and also be able to help others."

He described the program as an "action-reflection" model where students will reflect on their experience by discussing it afterward.

Ministry of Christ's People (MOCP) student leader Steve Bridge, a junior, will be leading the trip. Like Van Arendonk, he

also sees two sides to the exp e r i e n c e . 4 , I think we, a s students, have a lot to offer New York, not just feeding and clothing," said Bridge.

He commented the experience in New York will be valuable to s t u d e n t s , " b r o a d e n i n g our horizons and opening our eyes to what's there."

In any available spare time.

Bridge hopes that they'll be able to see some of New York City beyond the Staten Island area.

A stong interest was shown in the work p r o g r a m . The Chaplain's office had origianlly planned to send twenty students in two vans, but after receiving forty-six applications arranged for a third van to accommodate an additional six to seven people.

Most of the expenses will be covered by the Chaplain's office.

Participating students will be required to provide ten dollars in gas money and enough money to buy one meal a day, plus any spending money.

The Chaplain's office sponsors a spring break work project every year. It is always directed at social problems. 44It seems homelessness has been the focus of the project in the past three years," said Van Arendonk.

In 1989 students helped fix up houses for low-income families in the Holland area through HOME (Housing Opportunities Made Equitable). Approximately 14 students volunteered their time in the project, painting and doing minor repairs. They also did work with Heartside Ministries in Grand Rapids and the Community Action House in Holland.

Bush cuts financial aid (CPS) - Even as he called in his Jan. 31 State of the Union add r e s s to r e f o r m A m e r i c a n schools, President George Bush proposed a federal budget that would cause more than a million collegians to lose all or part of their financial aid, observers maintained.

More tht 300,000 students would lose aid if two Bush budget items - to kill the State Student Incentive Grant (SSIG) program and cut funding for Perkins Student Loans - pass.

Another 1.3 million students would lose $200 Pell Grants or have their grants cut by $50 if Congress approves Bush's proposals.

The president also proposed cutting funding for the Stafford Loan program, used by 3.7 million students this school year, by $500 million, down to a total 3.3 billion.

Then, in his State of the Union address, delivered hours after he submitted a 3-inch think book of budget proposals to Congress, the president urged schools to do better and to make U.S. students 4 'first in the world in math and science" by the year 2000.

"If 1 was going to do a report card for 4the Education President,' I'd give him a B-plus for rhetoric, a C-minus for finance and an A for political science," siad Dallas Martin, head of the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (NASFAA).

The $1.23 trillion budget for the nation includes $24.6 billion for education ~ up from $24.1 billion

- but it is slightly less than half of what is needed to keep up with inflation. The proposed budget will supply money to the U.S. Department of Education, which administers most federal college programs, for the Oct. 1, 1990 through Sept. 30,1991 fiscal year Of that amount, a $500 million increase - to $1.9 billion - goes for the Head Start program, which help underprivileged preschoolers.

"He's certainly not the Education President when it comes to funds," added Susan Frost of the Committee for Education Funding (CEF), a Washington, D C., lobbying group.

"It's a mistake to measure Bush's committment by the amount of money he spends," countered David Boaz of the Cato Institute, a conservative think tank that says more money isn't the key to improving education.

Student and college lobbyists in Washington, D.C., however, contend money is a key.

"Unless (Bush) increases grants and loans, he's not helping. What good is g e t t i n g students prepared to go to college if they can't get financial aid?" asked Janet Lieberman of the United S t a t e s Student Association (USSA), a Washington, DC., group that represents student government presidents.

The administration assumes students who can't get loans will turn to the Pell Grant program for aid.

While Bush did propose increasing Pell Grant funding by $473 million, it's less than the 4.5 percent increase needed to keep up with the inflation rate. In addition, all but $100 million of the added money would go toward covering Gramm-Rudman deficit reduction requirements for 1989 and 1990.

As a result, some analysts predict about 14,000 students would lose their $200 grants altogether, and another 1.3 million students would have their awards cut by $50.

The budget 4 'shows insensitivity to students who need financial help. I think it will definitely cause some students not to go to college," said Arizona State University student Michael Thompson.

44 Bush ran on the platform that education was important, but he has yet to show that. What he has done with the budget goes against everything he said," asserted University of Missouri at Columbia graduate student Scott Cook.

44 He might be saving some bucks now, but I wonder how much it will hurt us in the long run. If people have to drop out of school because they can't afford it, (the U.S.) will become less c o m p e t i t i v e in t h e w o r l d market," Cook added.

Bush's first solo effort isn't much different from the Reagan years. Last year Bush could only make amendments to the budget that t h e n - P r e s i d e n t Ronald Reagan had submitted previously.

In his January 31 State ot the Union address, President Bush outlined a federal budget which would cause over 300,000 students to lose college financial aid.

Illinois task force recommends student supervision (CPS) - A task force at the University of Illinois, shocked by the high rate of sexual assaults on its students, wants to make the campus safer by putting students under closer adult supervision.

Among the 24 "strongest possible remedies" the task force suggested Feb. 8 were proposals to put a resident director in all student housing, including fraternities and sororities, and to ban the school's pompon squad because its dances are "sexually suggestive. M The same day in Minneapolis, six University of Minnesota students were arrested at a sit-in calling for similar kinds of 4 Remedies. M They asked campus President Nils Hasslemo for a better escort service for women, the restoration of peer counseling and a crisis telephone hotline.

The Illinois task force was prompted by a study that found an unexpectedly large number of campus women had suffered from sexual violence.

More than 16 percent of the women at UI said they have been

raped while attending school, and 63 percent of those women said the offender was a member of a UI fraternity.

"This survey tended to confirm in definite numbers of what we had feared," said Stanley Levy, UI's vice chancellor of student affairs.

s t u d e n t s by Santa Monica Hospital in California found that one in six college women had been raped.

Stephens College in Missouri banned all its 44litle sister" programs in October after four rapes were reported in a month at the neighboring University of

'We knew that the problem existed but the sheer numbers were a surprise.'

-John Ehlert "Not many campuses have been willing to do such a survey, but we wanted to know the reality," he added.

Those that have taken such surveys have come up with similar results.

The New Mexico Governor's Rape Prevention and Prosecution Commission in 1988 found tlu t, statistically, one in four college women become rape victims, and that their attackers are four times more likely to be an acquaintance than a stranger. A 1989 survey of 6,000 college

Missouri campus. The incidents were related to fraternity parties.

44 It really did surprise us," said John Ehlert, president of UI's Interfraternity Council (IFC). 4'We knew that the problem existed, but the sheer numbers were a surprise."

Last semester, before the report was released, the IFC banned open keg parties.

4< We saw that many of the assaults were connected with alcohol," Ehlert said. 44The accessibility of alcohol at frater-

nities is a real problem."

The greatest stir, however, was created by the report's proposal to eliminate the Illinettes, the pompon squad that performs at the school's football and basketball games.

The Task Force on Sexual Assault, Abuse and Violence claimed "the squad promotes women as sexual objects."

Even Illinois state Gov. James Thompson called the proposal a 44 60's sexist mentality."

"I think it's foolishness in the extreme to target the pompon girls for extinction because of sexual problems on the campus," he said.

The 28 Illinettes usually perform in tight leotards and boots.

Some school officials say the

group creates an atmosphere that leads to sexual violence.

Nearly 300 women try out for the squad each year.

"It's only one of 24 recommendations. I think it's received more attention than some people think it deserves," said UI spokesman Craig Chamberlain.

"The real issue isn't the pompon squad," Levy added. "The real issue is the correlation between alcohol and sexual assault."

The task force also suggested eliminating alcohol from all university sponsored events, sending the parents of incoming freshpersons p a c k e t s about alcohol and date rape, and publishing in the student paper, the Daily Illini, the penalties for sexual assault and rape.

Editorial Editorial

Formal divestiture policy needed Tonight, when Dr. Allan Boesak receives from the Board of Trustees his honorary degree representing the needs and wants of Hope College, one might wonder how definitive the degree is. Is the degree honoring work Boesak has done in a vacuum or is it honoring the work he has done in South Africa? Does it honor a humanitarian or does it honor a courageous soldier in the war on apartheid?

Boesak has done a lot of good for the oppressed people of South Africa, but to honor him is to fully support the cause he works for: the destruction of the apartheid system. Wouldn't an actual formal policy against investment in South Africa be a better sign of support than a degree and no such policy?

The Board of Trustees have twice unanimously condemned apartheid, so the question stands as how best to exert pressure and to show support of the fight against apartheid.

Presently, Hope College may or may not be invested in South Africa depending on its mutual fund portfolio. Either way the investments are miminal. But is miminal good enough?

No, it's not. The formal policy against South Africa investments would squelch all doubts about Hope College's stand on apartheid.

It would affirm the Board of Trustees' commitment to the qualities the school is honoring in Boesak with the degree. After the tabling of the issue and all the delays getting the degree nomination approved by the Board in 1967-69, the passing of the formal policy would put the teeth back in the honorary degree.

The Board of Trustees has taken commendable steps in honoring Boesak tonight, but the passing of a formal policy against investment in South Africa would restore some confidence in the attitude with which the Board approves of Boesak, his work, and the fight against apartheid.

Presently, Hope's investment policy about South Africa is governed by the seven Sullivan Principles that companies must abide by before they can be approved by the Rev.Leon Sullivan.

But in 1966 Sullivan himself called for total divestiture if apartheid hadn't been dismantled within two years. Since that time Sullivan has admitted that his principles did not work. And the two year trial period is long gone for the Sullivan Principles to influence companies to change the apartheid system.

If Sullivan himself has rejected the usefulness of his principles, it's past time for Hope College to do the same.

It's time for the Board of Trustees to enter the nineties with a definite, formal policy against South African investment. The policy will probably have no practical effect on South Africa.

A withdrawal of Hope College's minimal investments are not going to help or hurt the South African economy, but the policy will show that College and the Board have done everything possible can to condemn apartheid and embrace the ideals for which Rev Boesak works.

JIM MONNETT

In Holland, Michigan, to see a black person is to see an exception to the white rule, but in parts of north Atlanta like the Asbury area, white people are only seen locked inside their automobiles on the way to the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial.

Here the urban decay reeks.

People live in houses that appear condemned. The streets are the living room for these people. Into this environment I come for the weekend for a conference at Johnson C.Smith Seminary.

Though most of the people I meet are friendly, a strange anxiety descends.

Paschal's Motor Hotel where we are staying was a meeting place for Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights leaders during the sixties. It is a historic hotel that becomes our prison.

Even the many black members of our group choose to stay inside the hotel during the first night's free time. No one suggests leaving the hotel. We have all looked out our windows and seen the roving groups of black men.

The conference sponsors mention that w e will be using a van to

travel the four blocks to the seminary. Why? Because you wouldn't really want to walk. Oh. On the way over on Saturday morning, no one complains. We do c o m m e n t on a y o u n g g e n t e l m a n loading a black automatic pistol on his front porch. Our stereotypes of the black person as criminal are reassured.

Rationality tells us that we would be safe on the streets. People live in this neighborhood not because of nostalgia for Martin Luther King Jr.; they live here because the housing is cheap The sociologist in m e calls the area Burgess's Zone of Transition b e t w e e n the Central Business District and the Working Class Zone. Privately we think it dangerous.

Most of these residents have never perpetrated any of the acts of violence that we fear. Unfortunately, this fear is confirmed by the few who do.

I wonder about the black people in our group. They are dressed better than I am. They're just people. People are people, I think as I talk to Nancy, a black

woman from San Francisco, next to me at the conference And yet outside on the street ..

Saturday afternoon. Nancy.

Bruce (a white Hope grad) and I decide to skip the evening program for a night on the town To get to the MARTA (a clean subway), we must walk 300 yards Irom the hotel to the MARTA entrance. We leave the hotel, feeling safe with the blue skies and 60 degree temperatures The MARTA e n t r a n c e is not visible anywhere. Nancy asks directions as I observe a man placing a bet on a horse with a bookie 10 feet away from us Bruce fidgets.

We head down a street teeming with people. No one bothers us. but we walk fast. At one point we pass a group of black men standing around a burned out house Some have money in their hands, some smoke and some are leaning in car windows along the street. I avert my eyes. My mind visualizes crack being passed from the house into the cars Business as usual on a Saturday afternoon in the Asbury area of Atlanta. Stereotypes and prejudices surface in a white northerner.

Waiting for the MARTA the other passengers a r e all black I check to make sure my wallet is still there in the front pocket of my jeans (harder to steal there safety tip learned f r o m veterans of C l e v e l a n d city schools).

Unlike our black conference members, and Nancy herself, these blacks are dressed black (my stereotype). In other words, they are dressed in a cheaper imitation of how the hip blacks on

BILL MEENGS

As I was racking my brain try ing to figure out what exactly Henry Thoreau was trying to say in his essay 4Civil Disobedience', I glanced out the window of my room and saw my housmate shoveling the walk.

Big deal you may say, but this

was the third time he had shoveled in the past two days. Which again would be no big deal except for the fact that his idea of a good shoveling job is when you not only can see the concrete of the sidewalk, but the green of the grass too. For some reason iie likes to shovel the whole yard.

Anyway, the whole thing got me thinking about my home in Petoskey.

When I was in high school, a weekend dumping of snow like the one we received in Holland this past weekend would begin talk of what we would do on Monday with the snowday we were hoping to get. Most of the time we didn't get our wish and had to fight through the snow to get to school (funny but it seemed like if my homework was done we would get a snow day, if it wasn't we had school). The days when I had got my homework done, and school was cancelled were great.

There were basically two options on every snow day for what to do The choice my friends and I made ultimately came down to how bad the weather really was.

If the roads were such that we couldn't get out to the ski slopes, we would go to the city's winter sports park which was within

walking distance. This was a dle of the week so most vacafairly good option because it of- tioners were gone. You would fered the opportunity for skiing, never see any ski patrols either hockey, and sledding, take your so you could b a s i c a l l y do pick. It was also free which is whatever you wanted. Even always an important part of any renegade activities like Chinese decision. 1 always say 'there is no downhills are legal on snowdays. such thing as bad skiing, some Another great thing about skiing is better than others, but snow days was that you didn't the best skiing is free skiing.' Of have homework on that night, so course if the roads were good goofing off was legal then too. enough we would disregard this This usually lead to Red Wing rule for the opportunity to ski on parties, movie parties, and the a real hill. like. Sometimes it would mean For most of my years in more skiing, since the city 's park Petoskey, Boyne Highlands (a stayed open until 9:00. ski resort near Harbor Springs) It's sure too bad that Hope is offered half-off on lift tickets for never cancelled because of snow, any student whose school was I could use a good day of skiing closed for a snow day. Because of right about now. Oh well, I guess this, any time it was possible, my that's what weekends are for, exfriends and I would load the car cept for that Shakespeare test and head for Boyne counti y. that I have to write this weekend.

Slip of the Mind-a journal Continued from pg. 6 MTV's videos dress. Which came first - the MTV fashions of the wearing of those clothes - might be debated, but the dress confirms my image and, therefore, my fears of blacks.

Still no one bothers us, but that doesn't go far to ease our anxiety.

In Lenox in south Atlanta, blacks and whites mingle at the uppercrust m a l l s and chic restaurants. We relax. These blacks are white. Or maybe we whites are black. Either way we are just people.

Slow Drag replied, "You can't change who you are by how you dress." The people of Lenox dress essentially in the same fashionable way. The people of Asbury dress as they can afford and as their peers dress. It isn't racial.

If Nancy had been dressed as the few women I saw in Asbury were, I would never have spoken to her. Also a mugger is still a mugger if his clothes cost $30 or $130.

A week later I, too, shake my head. It would be wonderful to tie up my p r e c o n c e p t i o n s and stereotypes about black people and discard them. But I can't. I wonder, though, if my prejudices are not so much racial as they are socio-economical. My relationships with black peole like Nancy seem to confirm that my fears on Asbury street and on the MARTA are more related to poor people than to their color. It is little comfort. Being an economic bigot is still to be a bigot.

Students can make a difference

by Pam Schmidt staff writer Many students feel shut off from the rest of the world while on campus-oblivious to what's happening in the world.

Perhaps you too have been hanging out in the basement of the library a little too long and haven't had the time to take a walk along Window on the Waterfront, Holland's finest attraction, or even to catch Dan Rather on the evening news talking about global warming.

Although some students probably have been tuned into what's going on beyond the perimeter of campus, a large question remains as to what a college student can really do help the environment. Here are a few things you can do to make difference: 1) DON'T WASTE P A P E R Do you print out three copies of your papers just because the computer paper is free? Do you take notes on both sides of the page?

When you photocopy (this can a l s o s a v e you t i m e and money),reduce your originals and use both sides of the paper.

It's possible to fit four 8 Vfc by 11 pages comfortably on the front and back of one sheet of paper.

2) RECYCLE. If you've been tossing your old notes, tests, or papers indiscriminantly in the nearest trash receptacles, you should know that t h e s e materials, along with your junk

mail are recyclable. In many c a m p u s buildings (including dorms) there are containers labeled for recycling.

Find them!

3) CONSERVE ELECTRICITY. A lot of common sense here.

Turn off the lights when you aren't using them.

Minimize shower time. If you have one, keep your thermostat at a reasonable temperature (70).

4) AVOID FASTFOOD. These places have a history of making major environmental blunders The beef is often imported from Brazil or Argentina, w h e r e tropical forests are being cleared to make way for cattle ranching.

Secondly, the packaging used by s o m e f o o d c h a i n s is nonbiodegradable and or contains ozone d a m a g i n g chlorinated flourocarbons 5) AVOID CFC'S. Chlorinated flourocarbons are the ozone destructive materials used in s t y r o f o a m p l a s t i c s , aerosoll spray cans, air conditioners and refrigerators. On campus you can resist the use of CFC's by avoiding CFC containing aerosol spray c a n s ( h a i r s p a y and deodorant), and styrofoam cups, commonly used in Phelps and at seminars.

6) WALK OR BIKE. While many students, being without a car, have no choice, it is also refreshing to s e e professors s c o o t i n g a b o u t c a m p u s on bicycles during January.

Whether the objective is to keep

fit or to save energy, both are admirable. Walk and bike where you can, and try to share rides when going home for breaks 7) SAVE LAKE MACATOWA. Not everything gets cleaned out of the wastewater that goes through the Holland s e w a g e plant before the water is sent to Lake Macatowa, while some chemicals can kill the plant's microorganisms.

Watch what you poor down the drain. On campus many toxic chemicals i r e used ( c h e m i s t r y , art, Dhotography). Find out if they ire safe to pour in the sink, if l o t - dispose of them properly.

8) BE TIDY. Make your parents proud. Cleanliness is the best defense against insects and furry things. If a pest problem develops in your residence, the strategy at Hope is to have exterminators zap them with insecticides and rodent poisons.

9) WRITE LETTERS. Write to your legislators when you s e e an issue that needs attention, or when you support or are opposed to c u r r e n t l e g i s l a t i o n .

Legislators care about what their consituents think and almost always send a reply.

10) U S E C O N S U M E R POWER. Take a stand against negligence and irresponsibility of businesses and institutions by using your consumer power.

This means shop selectively, boycot where necessary, and write letters to those companies.

Sexist and racist charges erupt (CPS) - A series of student protests of allegedly sexist or racist classes erupted at sue different campuses in late January and early February Apparently without knowing what collegians on other campuses were doing, students at Yale and Marquette universities, as well as the universities of Maryland, California at Davis, Washington and Missouri at Columbia leveled charges of racism at v a r i o u s t e a c h e r s and academic departments.

At Cal-Davis, for example, Chicano-Latino students marched to highlight what they say is discrimination against them in the Spanish department.

Teachers, they say, label them

as "illiterate" because their dialect differs form c l a s s i c dialects from Spain and Mexico.

At Yale, three female students c o m p l a i n e d that a F r e n c h t e a c h e r u s e s s e x u a l l y exploitative materials in their course, called "French in Action." The women charge that the program creates a "hostile environment for women."

Pierre Capretz, director of the Yale language lab and author of the program, which consists of 52 videotapes, a textbook, workbook and audio tapes, admits that his program is biased, but not exploitive because it is based on French culture.

In Missouri, the National Association for the Advancement

of Colored People (NAACP) said in early February it would join a probe into students' allegations that M i s s o u r i ' s law s c h o o l discriminates against black people.

On Feb. 8, moreover, members of the Maryland legislatures Black Caucus voted to back student demands for a review of race relations at the University of Baltimore (UB) and the University of Maryland law schools.

Students were first angered by a late January UB law school newsletter that attempted to lampoon visiting instructor and Baltimore Circuit Judge Kenneth Johnson's grammar and pronunciation. Johnson is black.

Students complete service survey (HOPE) - The Michigan Campus Compact, of which Hope College is a Charter Member, will be administering a Volunteer Community Service Survey on Thursday. The purpose of the survey is to determine student perspectives on community s e r v i c e issues.

A random sample of approx-

imately 600 Hope students will be asked to complete the survey.

Surveys will be mailed to offcampus students and will be hand delivered to on-campus students between 5:45 and 7 p.m.

Thursday evening. Volunteers who will deliver and pick up the surveys have been pledged to confidentiality.

Completed surveys will oe mailed to the Center for Survey Research at Michigan State University for analysis along with surbeys from other Michigan Compact schools.

Questions regarding the survey may be referred to Alfredo Gonzales or Sue Williams in the Student Development Office.

National News Fisk University loses no time asking Mandela to speak (CPS) - Waiting less than 24 hours after his release from 27 years in prison Fisk University students invited South African antiapartheid leader Nelson Mandela to speak at the Tennessee col lege's commencement ceremonies later this spring.

President Bush also invited Madela to visit the U.S., but no dates have been set.

Getting a degree in four years is a myth (CPS) - Only about 15.5 percent of the students who entered col lege in 1980 earned their degree in the traditional four years, a study released Feb. 13 by a private college association found Graduating within four years is "a thing of the past," conciudec Oscar Porter of the National Institute of Independent Colleges and Universities, which studied the academic progress of 2 ÂŤ . 0 ( ) C students who were freshmen in 1980.

By 1986, 40.7 percent of the students had graduated, 4.5 percent were enrolled for their sixth straight year, and 10.4 percent of the students were back in college after taking some time off.

Campus smokers seek to roll back bans (CPS) - Campus smokers went on the offensive against the evergrowing list of rules against their lighting up.

At the University of California-Santa Barbara, about 35 students held a smoke-in at a campus pub to protest a new ban, effective Feb 1, on smoking at all indoor facilities.

"People come here to drink beer, smoke and talk about politics.' protester Stacey Teas told the Daily Nexus, the campus paper. To attempt to ban smoking is not only unfair, it's stupid and ludicrous A similar anti-smoking rule went into effect at the University of Tennessee the s a m e day, prompting state Sen. Riley Darnell nonsmoker trying to mollify tobacco farmers in his destrict, to introduce in the state legislature a bill to foce UT to re-create "designated smoking areas."

Democrats try to concoct own federal college budget (CPS) - Congressional Democrats say tney are trying IU LU111C up with an alternative to the $24.6 billion federal education budget President Bush offeres in late January. The new budget, they say. would cut another $4 billion out of military funds, and route much of it to social program.

Even Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.), chairman of the House Af> propriations defense subcommittee, was skeptical that enough Democrats could agree on an alternative budget proposal.

Details of how students might fare in the proposal were sketchy, although senators Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) and Mark Hatfielc (D-Ore.), offered a $125 million bill to pay s o m e college tuition for students training to be math or science teachers On campuses and in schools, resentment of Bush's proposal, which amounts to a cut after inflation is accounted for, seems to be running high.

"So far, we're finding that w e have a rhetoric president, not an education president," said Des Moines, Iowa, board of education member Jonathon Wilson at a Washington, D.C. press conference We ve read his lips, and found it was only lip service."

Washington Gov. relinquishes some control over student fees (CPS) - Washington Gov. Booth Gardner agreed to sign a bii tnat A'ould give students at the state's public colleges more control over heir student fees.

"You've done a great job of lobbying," Gardner told a group of students Feb. 2. "If the bill gets to my desk, I'll sign it for you. " Fights between cash-strapped campus ' administrators anu students over who gets to spend fees have erupted in West Virginia, at Arapahoe Community College in Colorado, the universities of Wisconsin-Green Bay, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Massachusetts Amherst and Montana, and at Fordham, Indiana, Utah State, vears r n i a Alabama State universities during the past two

A typieal Spring Break vacation is as ditlerenl as the typical Hope College student. Okay, so a typieal trip is M O R E different than an average student. But, an average trip will cost between $300 and $500 it you drive, whereas a more luxurious vacation (including flight) can run between $700 and $1,200.

of a vacation. If you cat sensibly and spend most of your time at the beach, you probably won't need a lot of spending money (or d a d ' s visa card). But, if you slay in a highpriced hotel, cat out virtually every night, and party with moon dogs, well... it can cost a bundle.

Ironically, the most expensive part of a trip isn't usually the basic price of everything. It's the little extras that add up. Like hotel taxes, gratuities, entrance fees, cover charges, etc. For example, hotel taxes for a week can equal about one night's stay. And cover charges average the cost of one or two drinks. Charter fishing? $50$200. Snorkeling? $20-$40. Ski passes? $25-$50. D o n ' t forget car rental and taxi cabs, loo.

The bottom line is Spring Break has to be experienced.

This guide can help, but it won't be able to tell you everything. No matter if this is your first or seventh Spring Break, no trip is ever the same.

Your Spring Break trip is bound to be full of memories, photos, stories, and laughs. Like the story of the five guys

that had to fax their father's credit cards to the hotel in order to check oul... Or the 14 girls in one room (yes, that's right) who thought they had paid when they checked in the hotel. Instead, they ended up owing the Econo Lodge about $900...

And then there's the kid who had his nickname written in sunblock on his back. He went around Florida with a nice tan and an unusual phrase glowing on his body...

Nevertheless, Spring Break is a just reward for all those hard hours of studying. If you haven't studied hard?

You probably still won't stay home. When you leave for thai bit of paradise, don't forget things likes sunglasses, a camera, a cooler, beach towels, and sleeping bags. Money doesn't hurt either.

At any rate, when you come back -- if you c o m e back (some slay) - don't make fun of that pale girl in the back of chemistry class. T h e r e ' s always next year for her.

Rock and Roll, Reggae are popular forms of music One of the most popular and in-cxpcnsivc activities to do on Spring Break is listen to music. You can play your favorite tunes on cassette or compact disc, check out hip radio stations on the FM dial, listen to local acts in clubs, seek oul free concerts sponsored by Budweiser or Miller -- the possibilities arc endless.

Listed below are a few groups whose popularity has been directly influenced by warm weather, the beach, and good times.

UB40 - Long a favorite of the jah generation, this eight piece band has reached the masses with a cover of "1 Got You Babe" with Chrissy Hynde, and the nifty "Red, Red Wine". Some albums to catch while your catching rays would be 'Rat in the Kitchen', 'Labour of Love , ' C C C P - L i v e in Moscow', and their newest release 'Labour of Love 11'.

C R E A M -- It's hard to imagine that this band lasted • only two and a half years. Yet, they produced some stellar , rock anthems. Probably their best album is 'Disraeli Gears' released in November, 1967 (older than most of you). Their ' classics include "Badge", "Sunshine of Your Love", and "While Room".

B E A C H BOYS -- It was once written that anyone who said

THINGS T O DO;

they didn't like the Beach Boys was lying. It's probably true Can you imagine going on a Spring Break trip and NU1 hearing songs by the Beach Boys? If so, you're probably a member of the Mendellin drug cartel. Their best eflorts are... gecz, there's too many to list. For an album how about 'Pet Sounds". Also, check out the singles "Sloop John B", "God Only Knows", and "Little Surfer Girl .

BOB MARLEY -- Or even Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers. But, seriously this guy started a sort of reggae revolution. And it's nice to sec his family carrying on his legacy. Again, there arc too many great tunes to list. ^ However, for a decent sampling cue up "Trenchtown Rock (tht

live version). "1 Shot the Sheriff", "No Woman, No Cry .

"Get Up. Stand Up", and "Could You Be Loved .

J A M E S T A Y L O R -- If you're in a relaxed, mellow mood this guy is your ticket. Once married to Carly Simon, twice shy, JT is a consummate songwriter and acoustic guitar player. If you bring your girlfriend or boyfriend on Spring Break (which is noble) slap on "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved

By You)". It's definitely worth the brownie points. And it your single, oh well, toss on the song "Mexico" and blend up a few margaritas... , • • iu JIM M Y B U F F E T T -- Speaking ol margaritas, this is Mr. Spring Break himself. If your lucky, you can see him in person at his own Margaritaville on Duval Street in Key West, Fla. He's also known to show up on the coasts ot l e x a s

There are a number of unique ways to save money while on Spring Break. These arc 10 of the most common methods.

S L E E P ON T H E BEACH -- Not recommended for the ladies, but guys can get away with it pretty easily. You have to make sure y o u ' r e on a public beach instead of someone's private frontage. Also, beware of the tides or else your bedroom may just wash away.

USE Y O U R " N E W " C R E D I T C A R D -- Can't afford Spring Break? Of course you can. Just apply for one of those credit cards the financial services companies arc dying to give you. A VISA card with a $1,000 limit should do just nicely. What the hell, get an A M E R I C A N EXPRESS, too. Remember don't leave home with... your schoolwork.

Student uprisings spur book

by Carrie .Maples news editor Conceived in 1980 during a series of Bible studies, Allan Boesak's book "Comfort and Protest" shines as a beacon in the darkness of aparthied for the suffering church in South Africa.

It was written in the aftermath of student uprisings and boycotts that created a great deal of violence and persecution. In his introduction Boesak explains that this violence created many unanswerable questions, and "I turned to the words of John of Patmos, and for the first time I began to understand. The power of his testimony forever changed my life."

In this work Boesak reflects on the book of Revelations and its relevancy for the church in South

Africa today.

When "Comfort and Protest" was completed in 1966, South Africa was in a state of emergency. Unprovoked violence was a regular o c c u r r a n c e . Boesak likens the situation of the church to that of the early Church under persecution from Rome that John writes to from exile on the island of Patmos. Both churches must take comfort from John's words and from the picture of the future he presents. It is in this light Boesak interprets the apocalyptic signs of Revelations.

B o e s a k s a y s of b i b l i c a l apocalyptic literature, "In times of severe persecution, suffering, and death, the hearts of the faithful long passionately for signs of the power of God and for God's i n t e r v e n t i o n in their history for the sake of justice and

liberation. Apocalyptic works reflect in the most dramatic way the response of the people of God to the pressures of their time."

The main assertion of "Comfort and Protest is that only the church under direct persecution can truly understand John's message because it grew directly out of persecution." In this way the Apocalypse becomes not only a source of hope for the church of today but also a firm basis for a Christian liberation theology."

Boesak writes in a very easy to understand style without any pretention. Readers have the sense that they are having an easy conversation with a very friendly writer. He uses personal experiences to give readers a vicarious look at the tragedy faced by the church in South Africa that is a result of apartheid.

Hope musicians to tour coasts Brian P a i g e a r t s editor Musicians from Hope College will exhibit their talents across the country as the Chapel Choir and Symphonette look forward to the annual spring break music tours.

Dr. Robert Ritsema will accompany the Symphonette to the west coast as they perform concerts all along the Californian coastline during a ten day tour.

This will be the first west coast tour for the symphonette in twelve years.

"We feel the tours have a double purpose. First of all, they're very good for public relations, but it's also very important to the students who have to perform

every night " said Ritsema.

Ritsema continued, "It's the one time in the year when (the Symphonette) can center in on the repitoire" which includes nine pieces, some from the beginning of the first semester.

The Chapel Choir, escorted by Dr.Roger Rietberg, will return to the east coast after a two year absence to perform in churches from Ney York to Washington DC..

One of the highlights of this tour, according to Rietberg will be the opportunity for the Choir to sing in the West Point Military Academy's chapel, which contains the largest church organ in the world.

Both

conductors

seem

to

recognize that these tours are n w e than a musical experience.

"There's a coming together of the students on a tour like this," said Rietberg, "The comment every year is 'we wish this feeling could happen sooner in the year."'

Ritsema agreed maintaining that he "enjoys the sense of comraderie."

"I try to coordinate and head up the group," said Ritsema, 44 But I don't f e e l like a chaperone. I've never had a problem and they're a great bunch of kids."

The Hope College community will have a chance to see the groups at their performance on April 22, in Dimnet Chapel.

Junior pursues acting

Student performs for community Brian Paige arts editor Eric Preston Kilbourn is no "foreigner" to theater. In the past three weeks, Kilbourn has shown his flair for acting to the community in twelve sold-out shows of "The Foriegner" at the Holland Community Theatre.

Kilboume, a junior from Marshall, MI., is a computer science major, but has plans to pursue acting as a career.

"I plan someday to be an actor," says Kilbourn, "Hopefully in film. But it's nowhere near a secure enough profession that I feel comfortable being a theater major, so I'm taking computer

science to provide a type of safety net."

Whatever Kilbourn does, however, he seems to do it in style; the same style he utilizes on stage.

"I try to approach computer science the same way I approach theater. It's not always possible to do that, but I try to do a computer program with a sense of s t y l e - a little flair. Sometimes it makes it flow easier and work better."

Kilbourn is no stranger to the stage. The Foreigner is the fifth play he's been cast in. Others include "West Side Story", "Fantasticks", "IMO's Radio Hour" and "One for the Road", which he claims was his most difficult

role.

The acting syle that Kilbourn utilizes is totally unique to him.

He explains it in this way: "Have you ever known actors who are always on stage even when they're not? I go for the opposite approach-! try never to be onstage when l a m . " Kilbourn also desires to communicate with his audience in a very deep way and thinks he has in many of his roles.

"I want to develop a style for roles and feel most comfortable in roles which are important," says Kilbourn, "Which have something to say and which the audience won't feel like they're wasting their time for paying attention."

Student leaders push for control (CPS) ~ Student leaders in West Virginia are worried that cashstarved college administrators are trying to gain control over student fees on state campuses.

A new state bill, which has yet to be introduced, would give college presidents greater power to d e t e r m i n e how student f e e money is allocated to campus groups in the state.

Currently, state colleges collect student fees, which student governments then pass out to groups.

The new proposal would lump all student fees into two broad funds. Students would have wide discretion over how to spend the money in one of the funds, but coUege presidents can choose to transfer the money out of the fund when they need it.

"Because the presidents would fiave the flexibility to move rnoney into other accounts, we're earful that money for student urograms would get wiped out," said West Virginia University WVU) student g o v e r n m e n t resident Tom Gaziano.

Gaziano charged the idea realy is just a way to get students, as >pposed to the state legislature, pay for much-needed campus repairs and upkeep.

'The trend, more and more, is or states to put the burden on tudents," Gaziano said.

U n i v e r s i t y of W a s h i n g t o n tudents. for example, organized statewide lobbying effort last all to propose a bill to give student governments, not the Board f Regents, power to decide how tudent fees are spent.

The University of Idaho's student government threatened to student fees to sue the state ver another matter, but was ymied in October when the tate Board of Education ruled ch fees belong to the state, not udents.

The issue has become more urgent in recent years as campus administrators, short of money, have come to covet the suh^tantial sums collected for soident groups and clubs.

In recent years, students and administrators have battled over who gets to control and spend student fees at Arapahoe Community College in Colorado, at the universities of WisconsinGreen Bay. Notre D a m e , Nebraska. MassachusettesAmherst and Montana as well as at Fordham. Indiana. Utah State, California State and Alabama State universities among others.

With political anger about tuition hikes mounting, moreover, administrators nationwide have begun to mask tuition increases by calling them "fee" increases instead, some observers say.

ROTC to remain (CPS) - Despite objections to the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) policies banning homosexuals, officials at both DePauw University in Indiana and the University of Wisconsin decided in early February to let ROTC units stay on their cam| puses, at least for now.

CRKAT LAKHS RECIONAI.S T0URNAMEN1

Men's Regional

(HOPE) - The Hope College basketball teams have made a bit of history by both being selected to compete in the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III playoffs.

The Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association champion Hope women will host the fourteam Great Lakes regional tournament Friday and Saturday at the Dow Center while the Flying Dutchmen will go against league rival Calvin in a second round game in Grand Rapids at 3 p.m.

Saturday.

It is the first time that both the men's and women's teams from an MIAA college have been invited to compete in the NCAA playoffs in the s a m e season.

The women's Great Lakes regional will be coming to Michigan for the very first time.

Each of the previous eight regional tournaments has been

played in Wisconsin.

The Hope women (19-2) will play St. Benedict College of Minnesota (21-5) in one first round game at 8 p.m. Friday while the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire (20-5) will meet conference rival Wisconsin-Oshkosh (16-6) in the other beginning at 6 p.m.

St. Benedict and Eau Claire will be playing in the tournament for the second time while Hope and Oshkosh are making their first appearance.

Host Hope was ranked fourth among NCAA Division III colleges last week while Eau Claire was 12th. Neither Oshkosh or St. Benedict are ranked.

The women's Great Lakes regional champion will advance to a quarterfinal g a m e against the w i n n e r of the C e n t r a l Regional tournament on March 10. The Great Lakes winner is to

host that game. The women's Final Four will be March 16-17 on the campus of one of the participants.

Hope will be competing in the NCAA playoffs for the eighth time in nine years. The Flying Dutchmen have yet to advance beyond the regionals.

Five men's teams from the Great Lakes region will compete in the tournament. On Thursday, Muskingum (20-8) will host Ohio Athletic Conference rival Otterbein (20-8) in a first round g a m e The winner will play at Wittenberg (27-1) on Saturday.

Two men's teams from the Great Lakes Region will advance to a s e c t i o n a l t o u r n a m e n t against two teams from the South region on March 9-10. One of the Great Lakes survivors is to host the sectional. The men's Final Four tournament will be played in Springfield, Ohio on March 16-17.

Hope swimmers finish second

by Lance Evert, Jr. staff writer Hope College finished second in both the men's and women's conference swimming and diving c h a m p i o n s h i p s this past weekend.

Coach John Patnott praised both squads saying they swam well, but they both fell short in the meet held at Alma.

Kalamazoo's victory broke a ten-year string of championships for Hope's women's team. The final standings were Kalamazoo

and five swimmers performing well at that meet to get those points."

After the first day, Hope's teams trailed by only a few points. They fell too far behind on the second day to make a comefrom-behind win on the last day.

Patnott thought that the teams should be within twenty points of the lead to make a serious challenge.

The teams were not disappointed in their finish since they didn't perform poorly. Outstanding individual p e r f o r m e r s ,

The team aspect was evident on the women's side with Hope winning all five relays. The 400-yard Medley Relay of Gano, Erica Hansen, Amy Bongers and Bannink qualified for nationals and in the process set a new MIAA record (4:11.38).

F r e e s t y l e r s Bannink, Lynn Massey, Kirsten Van Overen and Elizabeth Becker qualified for nationals in the 400-yard Relay event (3:43.40).

Vonlns swam his way to victory in the 50-yard freestyle (21.70) and 100-yard freestyle

'It's not just your number one and two swimmers who win the meet for you.'

603, Hope 536, Calvin 386, Albion 252, Alma 170 and Olivet 81.

The final scores in the men's competition saw Kalamazoo win with 579.5 points followed by Hope 533.5, Calvin 394, Albion 306, Alma 149 and Adrian 90.

Patnott was impressed by the attitude of his team, which showed its character even in defeat.

Hope's t e a m s , which upset favored Kalamazoo in the season dual meet, were outmatched by Kalamazoo's depth.

In the championships, points are distributed for the first 12 places a s opposed to the first five in a dual meet. Patnott commented, "It's not just your number one and two swimmers who win the m e e t for you. It's really your number three, four

among a strong supporting cast, were Lori Gano, Jilanne Bannink and Chris Vonlns.

Gano won the 100-yard B a c k s t r o k e (1:00.81) and 200-yard Backstroke (2:11.06), setting new Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association records in each event. She will be heading to the natonal championships in Williamstown, Mass.

Gano, a junior, will be making her third appearance at that meet.

Bannink will be joining Gano at nationals. Bannink won the 200-yard I n d i v i d u a l M e d l e y (2:17.12), 200-yard F r e e s t y l e (2:00.26) and 1650-yard Freestyle (18:13.66) races. Bannink and Gano each were part of three victorious relay teams.

(48.00) races. Hope finished extremely strong in the 100-yard Freestyle race sweeping the top three positions.

Diver Jim Mitchell will be heading to Brown Deer, Wis., to compete in the men's national meet.

Graduation will take leaders from both squads. This will hurt the team because, "You can never replace any particular individual's qualities, but w e hope we can combine our qualities to replace t h e m / ' said Patnott.

But, a nucleus of talented swimmers will remain. Add to that a crop of "fine young freshmen" and Hope will have a strong, seasoned swim team ready to challenge for the championship again next year.

Elliott selected to all-district team (HOPE) - Hope College junior guard Eric Elliott has been named to the Great Lakes Division III all-district basketball team.

Selection to the all-district team is the first step toward earning All-American recognition.

The honors team is determined

by National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III coaches who belong to the National Association of College Basketball Coaches.

"This is a tremendous honor for Eric and our team," said coach Glenn Van Wieren. 4 'Erie is our leader who has the ability to bring out the best in his teammates. At the s a m e time, he is a very humble person who doesn't want individual honors to detract from our approach to team basketball. I have seen few players at any level who exhibit such positive leadership while playing such a complete g a m e of basketball."

Elliott, who hails from Hudsonville, was voted to the Great Lakes all-district second team as a sophomore.

This year he is averaging 20.3 points per game while shooting 54 percent from the floor and 88 percent from the free throw line.

Through 23 g a m e s , he has committed only 59 turnovers while a v e r a g i n g over 33 minutes on the floor He w a s v o t e d the most valuable player in three tournaments this season and twice earned Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association player of the week honors.

He has already scored 1,058 points in his career making him only the eighth player in Hope history to reach that milestone in the junior year.

Others voted to the all-district first team are Bill Sail of Calvm, Brad Baldridge of Wittenberg.

Bill Dufur of Heidelberg and Rick Brown of Muskingum Elliott was the third leading vote-getter on the district ballot.

B a l d r i d g e , who earned AllA m e r i c a n honors last year, received 98 votes while Dufur garnered 87, Elliot 84, Sail 79 and Brown 69.

Calvin freshman center Steve Honderd was voted to the alldistrict second team along with Ed Saxton of Case Western Reserve, Bill Dunderberg of Wittenberg, Brett Crist of DePauw and Mark Slayman of Ohio Wesleyan.

Calvin takes Hope with three pointer Kochelie Anderson norK wiifnr The Calvin Knights defeated the Flying Dutchmen 81-78 with a three pointer at the buzzer in Calvin last Saturday With only a second on the clock and the ball g a m e tied at 78. Todd Hennick put up a 24 footer and the fans swarmed the floor. The o f f i c i a l s c l e a r e d the floor, though, and put one second back on the clock. Hope had called a timeout.

Hope gave it one last try and Colly Carlson inbounded the ball to Eric Elliott who threw up a wild shot from Calvin's freethrow line.

Hope started the g a m e winning the tip with an extra effort from Wade Gugino, but failed to convert on their first trip down the floor. Calvin wasted no time and jumped out in the lead with a three pointer by Jim Timmer.

Timmer then fouled Elliott who made the first of two free throws which gave Hope its first point of the game.

Gugino gave Hope the lead, 6-5, when he converted the freethrow after he was fouled. The next time Hope saw the lead was when Gugino made two key baskets back to back to make the score

I t . ' â&#x20AC;˘'

Colly Carlson dribbles down court as Bruce VanderKolk and Wade Gugino fill the lanes.

Sophomore center comes on strong

20-16.

The Flying Dutchmen had to fight their way from behind most of the game. They tied their biggest lead with less than two minutes to play in the first half when they led 40-36.

Calvin scored once more in the half to make the halftime score 40-38 in Hope's favor.

Hope had three players in double figures and everyone who played scored. Gugino held the high score with 25 and Elliott brought in 19 and Carlson added 12 Bruce VanderKolk contributed eight points and played tough defense taking two charges almost back to back with 11:26 to play n the game.

This was the turning point of the game for Hope. four minutes left to play, Hope rallied from behind scoring 11 of the next 15 points making the score 78-78. TTie rally ended with Elliott m a k i n g two crucial freethrows to tie the game.

With 24 seconds on the clock.

Gugino fouled Steve Honderd and fouled out fo the g a m e with 12 rebounds and blocked shots.

The first half statistics were in Hope's favor with Hope shooting 54.5 percent to Calvin's 45.5 percent. Both teams made four out of five freethrows, 80 percent.

The second half belonged to Calvin. The Knights shot 64 percent from the field and 71.4 percent from three point range while Hope shot 43.3 percent from the field.

The Dutchmen ended their regular season with a record of 22-3 overall and ranked second in the MTAA

Sophomore Wade Gugino Rochelle Anderson sports editor O n e of t h e u p c o m i n g dominating forces for the Flying Dutchmen is sophomore Wade Gugino.

The 6 , 9 , , center has been coming on strong this entire season.

Gugino believes the key to this is the fact that he has been healthy the entire season.

"I've been able to get into the swing of things this year more than any other because I've been cor inuously playing without injuring m y s e l f , " c o m m e n t e d

Gugino.

Gugino has suffered from injuries since he played at Herbert Henry High School in Midland, MI. During his senior year in high school, he dislocated his knee and had his appendix removed. At Hope, he has been plagued with tendon problems in his other knee.

When asked what he felt were his strong points he said, 44I guess that my strong point would be knowing that there's potential. Right now I'm not trying, or at least I don't think I am, to exploit anything and I'm not trying

to be deluded " Gugino's goals for next year's Hope team include a national championship.

Gugino commented, 44We'll have everyone coming back and with no in-' juries. We can be national champions."

Gugino added, 4'When we play well we cn beat any team, but we need the consistency." Gugino averages 16.2 points per g a m e and seven rebounds. He holds the highest field goal percentage for the team with 60 percent.

The expectations for this year are more limited. He wants to play Calvin again.

"Even on their court, we'd get half the tickets and that would be the best in my mind. There are enough good teams out there with the potential to eat us up, but if w e can get to the last minutes of the game with a chance, we should be able to beat them " What needs to be done to beat Calvin? 44We need to D-up on the three point range and with our guard orientated offer.se, we n e e d to m a k e o u r t h r e e pointers," replied Gugino. Along with stopping their three-point game, Gugino said, 44We need a night when we're clicking."

When asked if he felt the cause of his high scoring in recent games was attributed to the fact that opponents key on Eric Elliott, Gugino replied, 44It is probably part fo the reason, but not the entire reason. We also have some big guys injured, so I get more of a chance to play." Keying on Elliott has opened up the inside game and Gugino believes

this gives him more of a chance to go one on one inside which is right where he wants to be.

Gugino has been p l a y i n g basketball since he was four or five. His two older brothers have influenced him most in basketball.

Since he is six years younger than his brothers, he found himself often the guinea pig to them.

Gugino's interests include cartooning, teaching Sunday school to second graders at Christ Memorial Church of Holland with his r o o m m a t e , Jeff Christensen, and talking with friends.

Gugino currently is a composite major in business and art He is looking toward commercial art and wants to be a cartoonist.

He is also seeking a B.A. in Biology to help with any medical illustrations.

His f u t u r e g o a l s i n c l u d e writing a syndicated cartoon, writing a variety of books about a variety of things, and writing children's books.

"I want to be able to influence people with my views," said Gugino.

But what about his future as a basketball player? "Ideally, I'd love to sit on an NBA team, even as the guy who waves the towel a r o u n d his h e a d , " r e p l i e d Gugino. "There's no better way to make a living. It's a great way to meet people for future connections."

Any particular team? 'That really doesn't matter.

Whichever one would take m e . "

Women's basketball beat Calvin, clinch division

by Kris Olcnik Staff Writer Clinching the division and a post-season berth, the Hope Varsity women's basketball team beat the Calvin Knights, 50-43, in front of a home crowd on Saturday.

It was a low-scoring g a m e and neither team dominated.

The first point wasn't scored until three and a half minutes into the game, and that was a three pointer from Calvin.

Hope countered quickly with a two and then a three pointer by Dina Disney to take the lead. Calvin tied the score at 5 - 5 until Hope took the lead again. This w a s the

last time Calvin c a m e within reach of a possible victory.

On both sides the shooting, and the offense in general, was low percentage, but Hope was able to score steadily leaving Calvin behind. By the twelve minute mark, Calvin was seven points behind - the closest they came until the final minutes of the game when they c a m e within seven again. Calvin struggled to even reach double digits in the first half.

For five minutes the Knights were unable to score with only 9 points on the board.

Finally, with 1:08 left in the half, Calvin scored giving them 11 points.

The low score resulted from

many factors which caused problems for both Calvin and Hope.

Hope starters Lissa Nienhuis and Heidi Carigon weren't able to play much of the g a m e because of lingering injuries.

They were also being saved for post-season play which starts next weekend.

Also, C a l v i n ' s 6*2" S a l l y Huyser was intimidating inside with four blocks. And simple, unforced mistakes plagued both teams.

The combination of Hope's strong full-court defense and Calvin's mistakes brought a lot of turnovers and stifled many scoring opportunities for them Also, their starting point-guard.

Sara Andersma didn't play or even dress for the g a m e . And Calvin's head coach was not able to come to the game.

The score at halftime was in Hope's favor 2 6 - 1 1 . But in the second half, Calvin c a m e out shooting better. Hope's defense still kept Calvin at bay, only letting them within 9 points (35-26) once at 12:55, then keeping the lead ranging from 11 to 16 points for the rest of the g a m e until

the number of fouls they commit ted. They had only 8 team fouls compared to Calvin's 20 Plus Calvin was 0 for 4 from the line and Hope was 11 for 18.

1:20.

With 3:44 left in the game Dina Disney got tangled and went down w i t h a c o u p l e o t h e r players, hitting her head on the floor.

She was taken to the hospital with a concussion. With rest, Hope expects her back for post-season play.

Calvin outscored Hope, 32 - 24, in the second half, but could not entirely make up the first half deficit.

A n o t h e r f a c t o r t h a t contributed to Hope's victory was

Since this was the last home game, special recognition was given to the four seniors; Hedi Carigon, Dina Disney, Anne Marie P o s t m u s , and Holly Vandenberg.

The second study, performed by the New York firm of Siegel & Gale and released in mid-January, criticized the lack of focus in the schools' literature, found seniors' perceptions of the schools were "lower than the actual value," and cost the state $275,000.
