CLB tables Student Congress' open house bill

by T o m Donia anchor Editor The C a m p u s Life Board began discussion of the o p e n housing bill in its me e t i n g T u e s d a y , Nov. 25.

CLB CHAIRMAN Dr. David Marker o p e n e d the discussion with a history of the parietals hours issue. Marker noted t h a t last year a poll of s t u d e n t s and faculty showed that s t u d e n t s favored t h e principle of inter-room visitation 997 t o 86. F a c u l t y r es ponded 41 to 28 against t h e principle.

S t u d e n t s favored a parietal hours p r o p o s a l , which was not passed last year, by a 6 2 6 to 247 margin. F a c u l t y m e m b e r s res p o n d e d negatively to the same proposal, 35 to 28. S t u d e n t s unanimously favored the principle of each d o r m being responsible f o r i m p l e m e n t a t i o n of any inter-room visitation plan.

B O A R D MEMBER and Dean of S t u d e n t s R o b e r t De Y o u n g said, ' ' S p e a k i n g f o r the College, 1

think s o m e t h i n g c o m e s b e f o r e the proposal itself. Last year we f o u n d that what we were really discussing was not t h e proposal but the principle b e h i n d interr o o m visitation. 1 t h i n k we must first agree o n s o m e guiding principle b e f o r e we can discuss this proposal."

CLB m e m b e r Russell De V e t t e , associate p r o f e s s o r of physical education. said that Dean De Y o u n g ' s t h i n k i n g was "in e r r o r . " De Vette s t a t e d , "I think if y o u asked me a b o u t the principle of inter-room visitation, I would say 1 am d e f i n i t e l y not in favor of the idea. " B u t it is unfair t o decide on a principle w i t h o u t a proposal. T h e principle might be palatable only because of s o m e specific proposal.

1 d o n ' t k n o w how 1 will vote, but 1 would be more inclined to be more favorable t o w a r d s a wellf o r m e d policy t h a n toward an undefined principle."

CLB CHAIRMAN Marker suggested that additional i n f o r m a t i o n might be helpful in m a k i n g a decision. Dean De Y o u n g and Board m e m b e r Jerry May will canvass a d m i n i s t r a t o r s and stud e n t s at s o m e o t h e r Great Lakes Colleges Association schools to d e t e r m i n e how o t h e r inter-room visitation pr ogr ams f u n c t i o n .

Student Congress President Tim Liggett, a guest of the Board, r e c o m m e n d e d t h a t the Board invite Charles C u r r y , d i r e c t o r of admissions, Marian Stryker, A l u m n i executive secretary and President Calvin V a n d e r W e r f . Liggett said, " I t would be b e t t e r to explore how the proposal might a f f e c t alumni o f f i c e o p e r a t i o n s and admissions, and to investigate Board of Trustees reacted t o pariental h o u r s while t h e issue is still being considered by the CLB. Otherwise the Board might pass the proposal o n l y to have the

Students to evaluate faculty A s t u d e n t evaluation of f a c u l t y is c u r r e n t l y being c o n d u c t e d by the anchor in c o n j u n c t i o n with the S t u d e n t Congress.

T H E F O R M S ARE due to be c o m p l e t e d and r e t u r n e d to resident advisors or to the anchor office by 6 tonight. Results of the evaluations are scheduled to be published in next Friday's anchor.

If enough c o m p l e t e d f o r m s are r e t u r n e d to m a k e the evaluation valid, this w o u l d be the first successful s t u d e n t - o r g a n i z e d faculty evaluation in H o p e ' s history. An a t t e m p t at securing s t u d e n t evaluation of f a c u l t y m e m b e r s for publication was m a d e in May by the New D e m o c a r a t i c Left. Because the NDL did not receive e n o u g h c o m p l e t e d f o r m s for a valid evaluation, no results were published.

ACCORDING TO T o m Donia, anchor editor and c o o r d i n a t o r of the evaluation, much of the reliability of the survey will d e p e n d on t h e n u m b e r of responses. " T h e evaluation will be meaningless if

22.

R e n n e r , who has been e m p l o y ed by the College f o r the last three years, plans to establish his own public relations firm in Western Michigan. In his letter of resignation d a t e d Nov. 21, R e n n e r stated that he has received t w o sizable a c c o u n t s " t h a t will create a solid base f o r the v e n t u r e . " "I have truly e n j o y e d my three years relationship with Hope College," R e n n e r stated. "I h o p e my c o n t r i b u t i o n helped m a k e H o p e a little bit stronger in the e y e s of her s t u d e n t s , alumni and f r i e n d s . " R e n n e r was f o r m e r l y a H o p e s t u d e n t and worked f o r local n e w s p a p e r s p r i o r to c o m i n g to H o p e . T h e College has not yet hired a new Director of Public I n f o r m a t i o n t o replace R e n n e r .

t o o few s t u d e n t s participate. On the o t h e r h a n d , if there are enough responses, the evaluations will provide i n f o r m a t i o n t o the entire c a m p u s c o m m u n i t y concerning e f f e c t i v e n e s s of the H o p e faculty."

Donia a d d e d , " T h e i n f o r m a tion which will be m a d e available next week may be influential f o r many students in scheduling second s e m e s t e r classes. This may be particularly applicable t o underclassmen, since these s t u d e n t s do not register f o r classes until later in D e c e m b e r . H o p e f u l l y , some College professional group will also e x a m i n e the findings of this survey when p r o f e s s o r contracts have to be c o n t i n u e d or terminated."

SOME ADMINISTRATORS have seen p r o b l e m s with a stud e n t - c o n d u c t e d faculty evaluation for p u b l i c a t i o n . Both Dean for

A c a d e m i c Affairs M o r r e t t e Rider and Associate Dean for Academic A f f a i r s J o h n S t e w a r t n o t e d that the q u e s t i o n n a i r e would have to be valid f o r all c o u r s e s and that a certain n u m b e r of s t u d e n t s would be required for validity.

Rider also n o t e d the difficulty of c o m p i l i n g the statistical data, estim ating that it w o u l d take a group of s t u d e n t s close to a m o n t h working eight h o u r s a day to c o m p i l e the results of the evaluation.

THOUGH THE c u r r e n t evaluation would be the first s t u d e n t evaluation of faculty f o r publication, q u e s t i o n n a i r e s f o r faculty evaluation have been m a d e available to faculty m e m b e r s f o r use at the individual f a c u l t y m e m b e r ' s discretion f o r the past several years.

Theatre to present 'Blessed Daddy' The H o p e College t h e a t e r department will present Blessed Daddy Dec. 10 t h r o u g h Dec. 13 in the Little T h e a t r e with performances each evening at 8.

WRITTEN A N D directed by visiting guest artist Dr. Charles Nolte, Blessed Daddy is a free a d a p t a t i o n in a m o d e r n setting of the Bachae, the legend of the Greek god Dionysus. A c c o r d i n g to the p l a y ' s a u t h o r , Blessed Daddy e x a m i n e s the o u t e r limits of rational behavior. It suggests that violent e x t r e m e s will always cause evil, f r e q u e n t l y sweeping i n n o c e n t victims into t h e maelstrom of unbridled emotionalism.

Nolte n o t e d , "Blessed Daddy hopes t o show the danger of a society being e i t h e r c o m p l e t e l y permissive or c o m p l e t e l y repressive." As a playwright, N o l t e has had seven plays p r o d u c e d in the Minnesota area, and three of his works have been p e r f o r m e d in L o n d o n . A professional a c t o r f o r 15 years, Nolte played the title role in t h e Broadway p r o d u c t i o n of Billy Budd in 1951.

BLESSED D A D D Y is the seco n d p r o d u c t i o n of the current H o p e College t h e a t e r season. The play was first p r e s e n t e d in 1965 at the University of Minnesota.

Nolte has revised the play for its p r o d u c t i o n here.

I n c l u d e d in the cast of t h e Hope p r o d u c t i o n are Charles Lang as Blessed D a d d y , D o m i n i c De Fazio as the police c h i e f , Karen Kent as Sister Aimee and Mary Schakel as Sister E d n a .

LINDA BARTELS IS the assist a n t director. Nate Fuller serves as technical d i r e c t o r . P r o d u c t i o n set design is by Donald Finn, instructor in t h e a t e r . Miss Schakel is c o s t u m i e r e and Richard Angstadt designed the lighting.

General admission charge f o r each p e r f o r m a n c e is $2, and stud e n t s and faculty will be a d m i t t e d for $1.50.

N o l t e ' s residence at Hope is co-sponsored by the t h e a t e r dep a r t m e n t , t h e English departm e n t and the C u l t u r a l A f f a i r s c o m m i t t e e . He will lecture and write on c a m p u s f o r a period of six weeks.

DE ADL Y ECSTASIES-Chanting "We accept his rites," Linda Bartels, Sue Witka, Karen Kent, Debbie Noe, Joanne Kornoelje and Margy Browe lead a "camp meeting" in honor of "Blessed Daddy," w h o will shortly appear.

Criticize,evaluate: Hope's function in Holland Editor's Note: This week's aA7c/7or essay is written by senior philosophy major Doug Rosendal.

Of course, m a n y of us c o m e from- places far away f r o m this locality, and m o s t will leave t h e Holland area a f t e r we graduate.

Yet while we are h e r e , if we are not to exist in l i m b o , a haven of irresponsibility, we m u s t b e c o m e aware of o u r i m m e d i a t e s u r r o u n d ings, and take a relationship to t h e strengths, p r o b l e m s and ideals of those j u s t o u t s i d e the Hope community.

by Doug Rosendal T h e university in all places is in a d e e p state of t u r m o i l - we all k n o w this. It is t o r n with strife, used as an i n s t r u m e n t of military research or of anti-war s e n t i m e n t , of i n d o c t r i n a t i o n i n t o the social s t r u c t u r e or dissent against that s t r u c t u r e . As in so m a n y o t h e r areas in o u r society, a d e e p polarization is taking place b e t w e e n a d m i n i s t r a t i o n and s t u d e n t s , black and white, right and left.

THE QUESTION I ask, t h e n , has t w o aspects: What is Holland, Mich. - w h a t is its uniqueness, what are its s tr engths , where are its problems? A n d secondly, w h a t does H o p e College have to cont r i b u t e to this c o m m u n i t y ? In o t h e r words, w h a t u n i q u e f u n c tion can a college, and specifically Hope College, p e r f o r m in the Holland area?

MANY OF THESE splits are re fl e c t i o n s of the p r e s e n t c o n f l i c t s in o u r society. But possibly the single most i m p o r t a n t split having to d o with the university, and p e r h a p s o n e which u n d e r l i e s many of t h e o t h e r s is t h e one which exists b e t w e e n he university itself

mitiative of H o p e

,society of " is p p o s ly a part.

And this split is a very real one for us at Hope. H o w m a n y of us as s t u d e n t s can say we are having deep significant relationships with people in the Holland area o u t s i d e the H o p e c o m m u n i t y ? And when such relationships d o h a p p e n , h o w

WE AS M E M B E R S of the H o p e c o m m u n i t y , and by this I mean all sectors - s t u d e n t s , faculty and Administration, must examine deeply the q u e s t i o n of w h a t we want t h e college to be to o u r society, or m o r e c o n c r e t e l y , w h a t we w a n t H o p e to be t o Holland, Mich.

Ralph article appears in Theatre Journal An article w r i t t e n by George Ralph, assistant p r o f e s s o r of t h e a t r e , has been a c c e p t e d for p u b l i c a t i o n in t h e Educational Theatre Journal.

The article, " B e n i t o C e r e n o : A P o e t ' s View of A m e r i c a n Hist o r y , " is an analysis of the play Benito Cereno by t h e A m e r i c a n poet R o b e r t Lowell and its perform a n c e in the original p r o d u c t i o n by the American Place 1 heatre.

The Educational Theatre Journal is the q u a r t e r l y publication of t h e American L d u c a t i o n a l T h e a t r e Association, the largest professional t h e a t r e organization in t h e c o u n t r y . In a c c e p t i n g

R a l p h ' s article for p u b l i c a t i o n , one of the Journal's consulting e d i t o r s c o m m e n t e d t h a t it is " o f a sort we o u g h t to see m o r e of in ETJ especially - intelligent analysis of the p o t e n t i a l f o r m e a n i n g f u l integration of theatrical e l e m e n t s using script and p r o d u c t i o n as sources of e v i d e n c e . " In the article Ralph studies the way in which Lowell's stage adapt a t i o n of H e r m a n Melville's novel Benito Cereno reveals the p o e t ' s view of race relations in the United States.

The article is scheduled f o r p u b l i c a t i o n in the March issue of the Journal.

When we have t a k e n steps to answer these q u e s t i o n s , 1 t h i n k an u n e x p e c t e d third q u e s t i o n will begin to have m e a n i n g - n a m e l y , w h a t d o e s Holland have t o cont r i b u t e to the H o p e e d u c a t i o n a l experience?

THERE ARE THOSE w h o will r es pond to w h a t 1 have said by p o i n t i n g to Higher H o r i z o n s , the school in Douglas, the Suicide Prevention C e n t e r and o t h e r such p r o g r a m s as i n d i c a t i o n s t h a t H o p e already is involved in the Holland area. These I c a n n o t help but a f f i r m , and I fully agree with those w h o p o i n t to t h e m .

Yet is seems to me that they are unconnected, non-comprehensive responses to the Holland situation, and responses not f u n d a m e n t a l l y related to the basic aims of the College. What I am calling f o r is a c o m p r e h e n s i v e re-examina-

tion of t h e goals and p ro g ram s of H o p e College in t e r m s of h o w t h e y relate t o the c o m p l e x e n t i t y Hope-Holland.

THIS ESSAY started as an analysis of the d i c h o t o m y , or rather t h e c o n f l i c t , b e t w e e n college and society. I think there are larger issues here - a m o r e far-reaching split b e t w e e n American intellect u a l s and the mainstream of A m e r i c a n society. A n d though 1 have s p o k e n a b o u t reconciling this c o n f l i c t , I fully a f f i r m it as well.

F o r one of the f u n c t i o n s of t h e intellectual, as well as of t h e college, is to criticize its society.

At college we are not only placed in a situation w h e r e we are relatively f r e e f r o m the social dict a t e s implied in having a 40-houra-week j o b , but we are also t a u g h t , or certainly should be t a u g h t , t e c h n i q u e s of t h i n k i n g and evaluating. T h e college graduate s h o u l d leave his school with tools not only f o r dealing with society, " f i t t i n g i n , " but f o r evaluating and criticizing it as well.

A N D HERE IS, I t h i n k , at least a partial answer to w h a t Hope can c o n t r i b u t e to Holland. If we are learning social research skills, for instance, why are we not using t h e m t o s t u d y the a t t i t u d e s and s t r u c t u r e s of the Holland comm u n i t y ? If we are g e t t i n g n e w insights i n t o what it is to be h u m a n , why are we n o t a t t e m p t ing t o c o m m u n i c a t e t h e m to the p e o p l e of Holland? A n d if we see injustice and discrimination t a k i n g place, why are we not telling someone w h o will listen and d o something, or at least s p e a k i n g where it can be heard by all of Holland?

H o p e College, t h e n , has somet h i n g t o give t o and s o m e t h i n g to receive f r o m involvement in its e n v i r o n m e n t . But u n t i l it decides to d o so whole-heartedly and c o m p r e h e n s i v e l y , it will r e m a i n an ivory t o w e r , related only by a n t a g o n i s m to its s u r r o u n d i n g s .

An interdisciplinary major The department of philosophy will offer a new program to its students next semester. Students who plan to major in philosophy will be given a choice of six different "mini-majors" within the department. Each one of these mini-majors requires courses from departments outside philosophy.

This departmental decision represents an important step towards broadening the concept of the major in a liberal arts institution. The department of philoso-

ence, but do not really involve "interdisciplinary studies," One possible solution to this dilemma is to expand the department of interdisciplinary studies, making it in part an advisory department to students and other departments. A student might be able to take a combined major in this way, with the department of interdisciplinary studies advising the student as to which courses he should take in each of several departments in order to fulfill the College requirement for a major and to reach the goals which he needs for a combined major.

ancljor editorial phy has taken this step because its chairman, Dr. D. Ivan Dykstra, feels that philosophy is not just a way of thinking, it is a way of thinking about areas of human activity.

The sciences at Hope have long recognized the need for "interdisciplinary" studies within the sciences. Chemistry majors are required to take physics and biology, physics majors take chemistry, and so on. The science departments realize that there is a strong relation between the various disciplines.

For some reason, however, the concept of a major studies program has changed little within the humanities. Students are bound by somewhat archaic departmental regulations governing credit given for major programs. An English major, for example, cannot receive credit towards his major for a course in linguistics, even though that course might be relevant to his studies in English.

Some attempts havo been made to change this rigid system. Foreign language literature courses can now be used to fulfill the world literature requirement. Other substitutions can be made, but on a very limited basis.

Another attempt to involve students in more departments is the department of interdisciplinary studies. In some ways, the title of this department is deceiving. Interdisciplinary studies implies that students who take these courses will be able to take advantage of several different departments. In reality, however, courses in the department of interdisciplinary studies break down in to one of two types of classes. Some courses are simply expansions of courses offered by another department and put into a "seminar" format. Students who wish to fulfill their senior Bible requirement may take courses in interdisciplinary studies. Many of these courses are really little more than discussion religion courses, taught by professors from the department of religion or philosophy. The other type of class is really a sort of "sensitivity training" or discussion of problems facing society. Both types of classes are equally relevant to the Hope educational experi-

Obviously, such a plan would have to work within certain guidelines. But interdisciplinary studies in this sense would not be a class on the class schedule, but a method for students to truly study in more than one department without sacrificing credits toward a major in one department.

This reconception of the major would be especially beneficial to education majors. Students who plan to teach after graduation are faced with nearly every semester set in a rigid pattern that rarely allows for election of additional courses.

A student who plans to teach English in the secondary schools, for example, must take 35 hours of English, 20 hours of required education, and 46 hours of other all-College core requirements. This leaves the student with 25 hours of electK/es, and of those 25, most are absorbed by minor requirements. Many students find they have only five hours of electives during the four years they are at Hope.

While some of these restrictions are the result of state teacher certification requirements, a program of real interdisciplinary studies might fulfill these requirements while offering the individual student more flexibility in his program.

One concept should be emphasized. A student who would choose to major in an area which involves more than one department would not lack a center of focus for his studies. Interdisciplinary studies need not become a sort of sampling of this and that. It simply would mean that a student might be interested in studying a topic which is not complete in one department. American studies, for example, could not be offered in one department, but might involve courses in history, English, political science and philosophy. The fact that a student does not restrict himself to one department would not mean that he would not restrict himself to one area of academic concern.

We urge department chairman. Dean for Academic Affairs Morrette Rider and the Academic Affairs Board to carefully consider guidelines under which such a plan could be implemented.

A m e r i c a n s are a m o n g t h e m o s t imaginative of any p e o p l e o n earth w h e n t h e y set their m i n d s t o the c r e a t i o n of j u s t i f y i n g m y t h s .

Such w o r k s of art as t h e f a m o u s "Monolithic C o m m u n i s m " fable have l o n g j u s t i f i e d such o t h e r w i s e incredible b a r b a r i t i e s as t h e My Lai (Pinkville) i n c i d e n t and t h e c o n t i n u i n g m u r d e r of h u m a n beings ( c o l l o q u i a l l y called " g o o k s " in d e f e r e n c e t o a n o t h e r f a v o r i t e myth).

BUT THE PARTICULAR m y t h t o w h i c h I w o u l d like t o direct a t t e n t i o n is t h e new Nixonian idea t h a t "All m e n are e q u a l . " N o t " A l l m e n are c r e a t e d e q u a l , " or even "All m e n are equal b e f o r e t h e l a w " but " A l l men a r e e q u a l , " i.e., of e q u a l worth (or worthlessness) to society.

A d m i t t e d l y t h i s s o u n d s like a fine h i g h - m i n d e d p r o p o s a l . But w h e n it is applied t o j u s t i f y a l o t t e r y d r a f t s y s t e m it is w r o n g .

Let us first be clear a b o u t w h a t issue is u n d e r c o n s i d e r a t i o n . T h e highly favorable catch phrase " e q u a l " i n v o k e s t h e positive c o n n o t a t i o n s of fair play f o r all. But in so d o i n g , the real q u e s t i o n , t h a t of t h e gross c r i m i n a l i m m o r a l i t y of killing m e n in Viet N a m , becomes obscured.

U N F O R T U N A T E L Y , we t e n d to m e a s u r e t h e j u s t i c e of t h e conflict in t e r m s of the m e a n s by which we are f o r c e d t o p a r t i c i p a t e m it, and this is a terrible m i s t a k e .

T h e l o t t e r y d r a f t system has n o t changed a n y t h i n g f o r t h e b e t t e r , either in t e r m s of t h e s e l e c t i o n of those w h o m t h e a r m y will t e a c h t o h a t e and m u r d e r , or in t e r m s of the j u s t i f i c a t i o n f o r the m u r d e r of those fellow m e n t h e y kill.

We are also w r o n g in t h i n k i n g that t h i s m e a n s of selection p r o m o t e s real e q u a l i t y . N o w it is trivially true t h a t if all m e n w e r e equal t h e r e c o u l d be no d i s c r i m i n ation b e t w e e n t h e m . And w i t h t h e i n s t i t u t i o n of t h e c h a n c e s y s t e m , all y o u n g m e n are d e e m e d e q u a l l y w o r t h l e s s t o s o c i e t y and e q u a l l y w o r t h y of d e a t h in its i n t e r e s t .

Seeming equality.

YET IT S T R I K E S m e as i n t e r esting t h a t a s o c i e t y t h a t n o t o n l y tolerates but p r o m o t e s inequality (even t o t h e p o i n t of c r e a t i n g artificial i n d i c a t o r s of t h a t ine q u a l i t y in t h e f o r m of s t a t u s

s y m b o l s ) w o u l d d e n y t h e right t o d i f f e r e n t i a t e t h e values of its young men. This muddle becomes clear with t h e m a k i n g of o n e distinction.

Earlier, when the original d e f e r m e n t s y s t e m was placed i n t o o p e r a t i o n , t h e s e c t i o n s of t h e p o p u l a t i o n t h a t were m o s t active in pursuit of their rights (i.e., in t h e a t t a c k of t h e privileged) w e r e t h e p o o r and u n e d u c a t e d , as organized largely in the places t h e y w o r k e d . T h e d r a f t laws at that time were consequently highly discriminatory against t h e s e groups.

R E C E N T L Y , HOWEVER, we have seen a s h i f t in which t h e m o s t vocal and active o p p o n e n t s of t h e q u i e t violence of e c o n o m i c and political b r u t a l i t y have b e e n t h e e d u c a t e d intellectuals, especially those o n college c a m p u s e s .

Since the real goal of o u r s o c i e t y is not change, improvement, g r o w t h , peace or e q u a l i t y b u t t h e secure p e r p e t u a t i o n of p r o p e r t y rights and p r i v a t e w e a l t h , it m a k e s g o o d sense t o design a system of artificial e q u a l i t y so t h a t a higher proportion of educated individuals might be killed.

So it is n o t at all surprising t o find that N i x o n , long the c h a m pion of t h e rich industrial elem e n t , is q u i t e willing t o allow this illusion of e q u a l i t y so long as it makes possible the increased silencing of t h e vocal m i n o r i t y and o b s c u r e s the d a m n i n g evid e n c e of c o n t i n u e d m u r d e r in t h e n a m e of t h e i n d u s t r i a l i s t ' s s y s t e m .

THERE H A S BEEN no gain in e q u a l i t y by t h e a d o p t i o n of t h e l o t t e r y . T h e real v i c t i m s of discrimination remain the s a m e .

So d o not t h i n k t h e l o t t e r y has c h a n g e d a n y t h i n g . It is still t h e old, t h e secure, t h e w e a l t h y and t h e p o w e r f u l w h o m a k e t h e wars.

A n d it is y o u and 1 w h o die in them.

I D O N ' T LIKE h i m at all. But one m u s t be c a r e f u l to c o n s i d e r Mailer t h e a u t h o r a n d not Mailer the p r o t a g o n i s t . A n d as an a u t h o r of what is p r i m a r i l y j o u r n a l i s m .

Mailer is being i n c r e d i b l y pres u m p t i o u s in a s s u m i n g himself t o be r e p r e s e n t a t i v e of the spirit of the March, and m o r e t h a n a little u n f a i r t o t h o s e w h o actually went on that March with serious, sober i n t e n t . I b e c a m e q u i c k l y t i r e d of such bleary-eyed wanderings t h r o u g h t h e endless forest of Mailer's ego, and regard t h e m as an a f f r o n t t o the d i g n i t y and p o w e r of the March itself.

Mailer also e x h i b i t s an easy willingness t o slide into w h a t in less prestigious w r i t e r s is called " p a d d i n g " . He r e q u i r e s nearly f o u r pages, for e x a m p l e , t o pick u p his t e l e p h o n e and begin a conversation. These p a g e s he s p e n d s in a discussion of his various m o o d s , his uninteresting

h a b i t s , a n d h i s f a n t a s i e s as h e d e b a t e s t h e advisability of answering, as well as a lengthy moraliza t i o n o n t h e ills of d r u g abuse a n d t h e " s w i s s - c h e e s e " c h a r a c t e r of Mailer's brain. T h e r e is n o r o o m f o r this k i n d of w o r d i n e s s , even in a novel, if its i n t e n t is t o be j o u r n a l i s m , a " c h r o n i c l e " of t h e March.

OR C O N S I D E R this scene in a W a s h i n g t o n jail in w h i c h Mailer requires t h r e e p a r a g r a p h s t o d r i n k a glass of w a t e r . A f t e r a b s t a i n i n g f r o m w a t e r f o r the e n t i r e March o n the P e n t a g o n in o r d e r t o give " s o m e m i n u t e oven of his m e t a b olism t h e fuel f o r a small sustaining f i r e , " and m e n t i o n i n g h o w " g o o d t o k n o w t h a t a little t h i r s t and a little h u n g e r were t o n i c f o r a day of battle, and discipline f o r dull h o u r s in jail, he t o o k a d r i n k of w a t e r . " I t was c h a r a c t e r i s t i c of him t o m a k e such a m o v e , and he h a r d l y k n e w if he did it for t h e best or worst of reasons, did it because in recognizing t h e value of thirst he had a small p a n i c to d e s t r o y t h e t e m p t a t i o n to search such a m o r a l a d v e n t u r e f u r t h e r , or did he do it precisely b e c a u s e he was n o w aware of the value of thirst, and so thirst by such c o n s c i o u s n e s s had lost its value since t h e ability t o s u f f e r d r o u g h t was, by t h i s logic, valuable only if water were not available. Or did he t a k e a drink because h e wished t o s t u d y his n e w s t a t e a f t e r s a t i s f y i n g thirst?"

OR DID HE DO it b e c a u s e he was t h i r s t y ?

Such d e s c r i p t i o n as this is t o o p e r s o n a l and s u b j e c t i v e t o be very interesting. T h e r e is n o t h i n g universal, s y m b o l i c or r e p r e s e n t a t i v e in Mailer's d r u n k e n prose. His o b s e r v a t i o n s a r e t h o s e of a selfc o n s c i o u s a n d egotistical braggart w h o can not see the m a g n i f i c a n c e of t h e Great March f o r t h e overbearing verbiage of t h e " G r e a t Mailer".

Majors discussed by AAB

by T o m Donia anchor Editor T h e A c a d e m i c Affairs Board discussed p r o p o s e d changes in t h e m a j o r p r o g r a m of t h e p h i l o s o p h y d e p a r t m e n t in its regular m e e t i n g T u e s d a y , Nov. 25.

U N D E R THE PROPOSAL, t h e p h i l o s o p h y m a j o r w o u l d be required to include courses in o t h e r d e p a r t m e n t s in o r d e r t o s h a r p e n skills which w o u l d be necessary for his d e v e l o p m e n t in t h e field of p h i l o s o p h y (see story on this Page).

T h e Board b e c a m e involved in d e b a t e over t h e a u t h o r i t y which it should h a v e over approving changes in m a j o r programs. S o m e Board m e m b e r s expressed the belief t h a t d e t e r m i n i n g m a j o r req u i r e m e n t s was the responsibility solely of t h e individual d e p a r t ments. Other members noted that t h e n a m e of t h e Board on which t h e y were serving was t h e " A c a demic Affairs Board." These m e m b e r s asked if m a j o r requirem e n t s should not be considered an a c a d e m i c a f f a i r .

D R . A R T H U R J E N T Z , chairman of the AAB and associate

professor of p h i l o s o p h y , a d m i t t e d t h a t " w e have real p r o b l e m s . " T h e Board sent a c o m m u n i c a t i o n t o Dean for A c a d e m i c Affairs Morr e t t e Rider r e q u e s t i n g that he outline and interpret t h e jurisdiction of the Board concerning m a j o r s programs.

T h e Board also told Dr. D. Ivan Dykstra, c h a i r m a n of the d e p a r t m e n t of p h i l o s o p h y and a guest at t h e T u e s d a y m e e t i n g , that he should act on t h e a s s u m p t i o n t h a t he has t h e p o w e r t o make t h e p r o p o s e d changes within the philosophy department.

"Risk" students have diverse backgrounds (continued from page 3) of ICOP at H o p e , said that stud e n t s w h o p a r t i c i p a t e in this program h a v e little m o n e y , eradic high school records, low standardized test scores, and o f t e n have been hindered by race or s i t u a t i o n . " T h e s e stud e n t s are not t h e kind of material that colleges are looking f o r , " Williams said.

Spring registration to extend three weeks Registration for the spring semester will e x t e n d over a threeweek period f r o m Dec. 2 t h r o u g h Dec. 19.

REGISTRATION will be in V o o r h e e s l o u n g e on T u e s d a y s and T h u r s d a y s , and in the s t u d y on M o n d a y s , W e d n e s d a y s and Fridays.

S t u d e n t s have received p e r m i t s designating t h e date they are to register. T h e y may d o so at this time, or a n y o t h e r time a f t e r , f r o m 8 : 3 0 a.m. t o n o o n and 1 2 : 3 0 p.m. t o 4 : 3 0 p.m. M o n d a y through Friday.

S e n i o r s will be allowed t o register first, f o l l o w e d by j u n i o r s , s o p h o m o r e s and f r e s h m e n . Regist r a t i o n this semester will be f r o m Z to A. STUDENTS MUST present t h e i r p e r m i t t o register and advisor-approved schedule in o r d e r to register. T h e rest of the proced u r e involving class cards is the same as last semester.

T h i s trial system of registration is "largely d u e to t h e request of the S t u d e n t C o n g r e s s , " said Kenn e t h Vink, d i r e c t o r of registration. T h e Congress had r e q u e s t e d such a p r o g r a m in o r d e r to eliminate o b l i g a t i o n s during the semester break vacation. Vink also stated that this new m e t h o d will " m a k e registration a m o r e leisurely p r o c e s s . " R e g i s t r a t i o n of 150 pupils p e r day will c o n t r a s t with a p p r o x i m a t e l y 4 5 every 15 m i n u t e s in t h e fall registration.

FLEXIBILITY was a n o t h e r reason f o r the switch to this system, a c c o r d i n g to Vink. N o t o n l y

CHAIRMAN JENTZ brought b e f o r e t h e Board t w o courses in interdisciplinary studies which appeared in the second s e m e s t e r course schedule. T h e courses. Interdisciplinary Studies 3 7 : Probing Values, and Interdisciplinary Studies 4 1 : C o m m u n i t y Semester, were never approved by the AAB. A letter was sent to Dean Rider, chairman of t h e departm e n t of interdisciplinary studies, stating that the courses s h o u l d be r e m o v e d f r o m t h e schedule and should not be o f f e r e d during the spring semester.

can s t u d e n t s work t h e i r registration a r o u n d their schedules, but those finding it m a n d i t o r y to e n t e r a closed class m a y discuss it with the d e p a r t m e n t chairman, submit a written n o t i f i c a t i o n to Vink and still have t i m e to register.

A second registration f o r inc o m i n g s t u d e n t s and those re-entering school a f t e r a semester off c a m p u s will be held o n Jan. 28.

However, as with s t u d e n t s in H o p e ' s trial program, " t h e r e is certain intangible evidence that suggests that with guidance and special help t h e y could be succ e s s f u l , " Williams said.

NOT ALL STUDENTS in ICOP take the same t y p e of courses. S t u d e n t s who are more advanced may t a k e a regular college course f o r credit in addition to remedial work while o t h e r s may take only remedial courses.

Of the four ICOP s t u d e n t s w h o were a d m i t t e d last fall, one is still a t t e n d i n g Hope. T w o of the f o u r r e t u r n e d as s o p h o m o r e s this fall. However, one of these was asked to leave school because of rule violations, Williams said. He noted t h a t this s t u d e n t had a good academic average.

All four ICOP s t u d e n t s who were a d m i t t e d this fall have remained in school. One s t u d e n t of this group had low grades at mid-semester.

classes in biology, physics, chemistry, geology or m a t h e m a t i c s . According t o Dr. D. Ivan D y k s t r a , professor of philosophy and chairman of t h e d e p a r t m e n t , t h e new program will provide e x p e r i e n c e and degree of c o m p e t e n c e in the related area as well as grant credit for such c o g n a t e study t o w a r d a philosophy major.

past, m o s t p h i l o s o p h y m a j o r s at Hope have c o n t i n u e d their studies with either graduate work in philosophy in p r e p a r a t i o n for college teaching, studies in t h e o l o g y or law," Dykstra said. " A new field has recently been e x p a n d i n g in the area of teaching. C o m m u n i t y colleges are requiring new philosophy i n s t r u c t o r s . " " P h i l o s o p h y has t o face the question w h e t h e r it has its o w n subject m a t t e r or should engage in c o n c e p t u a l analysis of o t h e r disciplines," Dykstra c o n t i n u e d . "With the new program we can involve ourselves in b o t h areas. Put simply, we will first t e a c h the basics of p h i l o s o p h y , t h e n study h o w these relate to the cognate disciplines."

D Y K S T R A N O T E D t h a t the program will permit t h e m a j o r s t u d e n t a wider range of choice for post-baccalaureate s t u d y in preparation f o r law, teaching, business or t h e o l o g y , as well as for advanced study in o t h e r g r a d u a t e disciplines besides p h i l o s o p h y .

Dykstra also stated that g r a d u a t e school d e p a r t m e n t chairmen were consulted b e f o r e the change was made.

D Y K S T R A SAID T H A T while the idea of involving o t h e r departments in m a j o r r e q u i r e m e n t s is unique in the p h i l o s o p h y department, he did not foresee o t h e r d e p a r t m e n t s a d o p t i n g similar programs. " T h i s is because philosophy involves analysis of m a j o r notions of o t h e r areas of s t u d y , " he said.

S t u d e n t s w h o are interested in inquiring a b o u t the new m a j o r program are e x t e n d e d an invitation t o join the p h i l o s o p h y faculty for a free d i n n e r in Phelps c o n f e r e n c e r o o m T u e s d a y at 6 p.m.

They expressed the position that for admission to g r a d u a t e s t u d y , a basic knowledge of the history of philosophy and a c o m petence in reading philosophical literature were both essential. " T h e new major program will provide b o t h of these, along with c o m p e t e n c e in the cognate field of s t u d i e s , " Dykstra said.

THE C H A N G E MAY affect some of the 12 s t u d e n t s w h o have presently declared majors in the philosophy d e p a r t m e n t . " I n the

T H E R E WAS NO negative reaction to the C o m m i t t e e r e p o r t in the CLB meeting, and t h e present dress code will be maintained.

A policy governing s t u d e n t organizations was approved by t h e Board. T h e policy states t h a t each organization must have an advisor in order to be recognized by t h e College. This " c o n s u l t a n t " should not have the a u t h o r i t y to c o n t r o l the policy of the organization, according to t h e policy s t a t e m e n t .
