If acceptable f inanc ing is found , final a p p r o v a l of the pu rchase must be given by the Boa rd of Trustees.

The College is d i scuss ing fi-nanc ing possibilities with several western Mich igan b a n k s . The re is a possibi l i ty of some help f r o m one of the a r e a churches , Mr. Hand log ten sa id . If a loan is ob-tained, it will be paid off with the revenue f rom rent ing the build-ing.

The office o f t h e Associate Deans of Students h a s des ignated the bui ld ing as h o u s i n g for senior women at a ra te of $ 2 4 0 per stu-

At H o p e there is one m a j o r g r o u p c o m p r i s i n g a p p r o x i m a t e -ly one-sixth of the student b o d y that often is not considered when student needs are discussed. This g r o u p is the nea r ly 3 5 0 s tudents w h o reside off c a m p u s .

M O S T I N T H I S g r o u p a re single s tudents w h o c o m m u t e f r o m home in Ho l l and or s u r r o u n d i n g communi t ies , s o m e f rom as far as G r a n d Rapids .

A p p r o x i m a t e l y 120 are m a r -ried s tudents , and another 2 0 are s tudents who h a v e received special permiss ion to live off c a m p u s . Only 85 of the 3 5 0 s tudents are par t - t ime s tudents .

B E H I N D T H E L A C K of interest in this g r o u p of s tudents lies one m a j o r fac tor , the genera l non- involvement of these s tudents in the n o n - a c a d e m i c life of the College. Al though non-involve-ment is the rule, m a n y of f -campus s tudents a re active par t i c ipan t s in all aspects of college life.

However , the m a j o r i t y of off-c a m p u s s tudents interviewed did not par t ic ipa te in social events on c a m p u s except for a t t endance at ba ske tba l l and footbal l g a m e s .

S imi la r ly these s tudents a r e not deeply involved in c a m p u s con-t rovers ies or c a m p u s politics. Most did not vote in the recent c a m p u s elections.

T H E P L A N WAS i n a u g u r a t e d after present c h a i r m a n Dr. Robert W. C a v a n a u g h asked to be re-lieved of his admin i s t r a t i ve dut ies in o rde r to accept a full-time role in teaching. Dr. C a v a n a u g h h a s been c h a i r m a n of the depa r tmen t since 1947.

Cha r l e s C u r r y , Director of Ad-miss ions , said final statistics can-not be given a s yet, but there will be a p p r o x i m a t e l y 5 7 5 new fresh-men.

Like this year , there will be m o r e women t h a n men. The per-cen tage o f thec l a s s f rom Reformed C h u r c h b a c k g r o u n d s will be ap-p rox ima te ly 4 5 percent. About 5 5 percent of the f r e shmen will c o m e f r o m outside Michigan.

Due to lack of funds , there will be no assoc ia te teaching p r o g r a m at the D o u g l a s school in S a u g a -tuck next yea r , a cco rd ing to La-mortt Dirkse.

" H o w e v e r , " Mr. Dirkse sa id , "it would be un-wise to limit the off -campus pro-g r a m to just one c o m m u n i t y . "

The educa t ion d e p a r t m e n t would like to establ ish an off-c a m p u s p r o g r a m in either Mus-kegon or G r a n d Rapids to a f f o r d educa t ion s tuden ts the o p p o r -tunity to work in s u b u r b a n a n d inner-city a r ea s .

T H E M U S K E G O N and G r a n d Rapids p r o g r a m s will b e reviewed by the Teacher Educat ion C o m -mittee t o d a y .

The end of the associa te teach-ing p r o g r a m in the D o u g l a s school h a s been just one resul t of the " h a v o c be ing ra ised b y a n u l t ra -conserva t ive element in the c o m m u n i t y , " Dr. C r a w f o r d sa id .

T H I S E L E M E N T , te rmed " J o h n Birchers a n d their s y m -pa th ize r s " by Dr. C r a w f o r d , h a s said that insti l l ing a positive self-concept in a chi ld is not the p r o p e r funct ion of a school .

" T h i s right wing g r o u p would like to see a re turn to the con-vent ional three R ' s , " said Dr. C r a w f o r d .

Dr. C rawfo rd , whose con t rac t was not renewed b y the B o a r d of Educa t ion last mon th , sa id " the re migh t still be s o m e hope of the non-g raded p r o g r a m con-t inu ing . " The Hoa rd is in f a v o r of con t inu ing the n o n - g r a d e d pro-g r a m but the teacher m o r a l e h a s been des t royed.

" W E F E E L WE h a v e had a successful p r o g r a m this y e a r , " Dr. C r a w f o r d noted. " H o w e v e r , with this s t rong ly o r g a n i z e d J o h n Birch element a n d a new super-intendent of schools , Dona ld Oyler, w h o does not s u p p o r t us , the p r o g r a m has been h indered this y e a r , " Dr: C r a w f o r d said .

The music depa r tmen t is the second d e p a r t m e n t at Hope Col-lege to adop t a ro ta t ing chair -m a n s h i p plan. The chemis t ry de-pa r tmen t initiated a s imi lar p lan at the b e g i n n i n g of last year .

I a m d i smayed and d isappoin ted at the Hope c o m m u n i t y in cons ider ing the acceptance of s epa ra t e hous ing for black women. Hope College h a s been established and is constructed to act as a communi ty . T o favor sepa ra t e h o u s i n g is to openly des t roy the c o m m u n i t y , which indeed makes Hope College un ique f r o m other institutions. Hope College, as an edu-cat ing experience, a l so gives one the op-portuni ty to live, work , sha re and en joy experiences with all people.

MANY S T U D E N T S WHO come to Hope encounter their first experience with black students. It is un fo r tuna te that they meet black s tudents at such a late s tage, because it seems to emphas ize to them a certain u n k n o w n difference between b lacks a n d whites which is false—and I m a i n t a i n does not exist. What better oppor tun i ty is there for b l acks and whites to learn about one ano the r and br idge the g a p of difference caused by_ uneduea t ion , than by l iving together? By a s k i n g for s epa ra t e hous ing you a r e deny ing the goa l that we can live together, not just on Hope 's c a m p u s , but in the world .

Why must you emphas ize a difference which is only skin deep a n d create more obstacles for b lacks and whites together? How a re we to u n d e r s t a n d one ano ther , to apprec ia te one ano the r ' s s imilar g o a l s and interests if there is to be no contact with b lacks a n d whites together?

With these i n n o v a t i o n s a commit tee s t ructure with a lot of p r o m i s e can become a responsive , flexible mechan i sm for r u n n i n g H o p e Col lege. We s t rong ly u rge their a d o p t i o n .

S t u d e n t C u t t e r s The news repor ted on page one that

19 s tudents will p r o b a b l y not be permit ted to register next fall because of excessive chape l cuts is ve ry d i shea r t en ing .

This n e w s p a p e r h a s often spoken a g a i n s t c o m p u l s o r y chape l . We h a v e l ong contended that coercion is not a va l id method of b r i n g i n g ind iv idua l s closer to C o d . We h a v e a l w a y s believed tha t free-d o m to worsh ip—is a r ight which is appli-cable inside a C h r i s t i a n c o l l e g e c o m m u n i t y .

These a r g u m e n t s , however , d o not speak to t h c cur ren t p rob l em. T h e 2 1 0 0 p lan is the law of the College, a n d a s such it va l id ly requi res student obedience. T h e 19 s tudents in ques t ion h a v e n o t c o o p e r a t e d

at all, a n d thus h a v e obv ious ly decided that they need m a k e n o effort to c o n f o r m to the r egu la t i ons of the College. In the face of such a s tance, the Col lege h a s n o real choice other t h a n to tell these students that they must seek their educa t ion at ano the r institution with a set of r egu la t ions with which they c a n m o r e easi ly c o n f o r m .

One th ing is essent ia l , however . T h e Col lege should bend every effort to give these s tudents the time and o p p o r t u n i t y

to a r r a n g e to con t inue their college career elsewhere. For the men on the list, a p a u s e in their college educa t ion can m e a n im-mediate induct ion into the a r m e d services, an eventual i ty which ca r r i e s a risk which is not w a r r a n t e d by a t h o u s a n d chape l cuts.

Please d o not think it is p rema tu re to consider someth ing that will not h a p p e n until next fall when this school year isn't over yet, but there are a l r e a d y several ideas in the p l ann ing s tages and there is one in par t icular to which 1 call your at-tention.

H O M E C O M I N G HAS al ways been and hopeful ly will cont inue to be a t r ibu te to the a lumni of Hope College. It is at this time that the present student b o d y can give the a lumn i of the College a g l impse of what Hope College is today . However, recently there h a v e been misg iv ings as to the valid-ity of the t rad i t iona l p a r a d e including floats, etc.

As the theme of one float last fall read, " A Time F o r A C h a n g e , " the time has come to reeva lua te this aspect of Home-coming .

T H U S . T H E T H E M E for our next Homecoming will be " C o m e See About Us—Hope College 1969 . " While main-ta in ing most of wha t is a pa r t of Home-coming we hope to add a new dimension to it. On the S a t u r d a y m o r n i n g in place of a p a r a d e , we hope to open the College to a lumn i and fr iends and let them see what Hope students and faculty a r e d o i n g t o d a y . This leaves much r o o m for innova t ive ideas on the part of m a n y g r o u p s and depar t -ments on c a m p u s .

Homecoming comes ve ry quickly in the fall so we ask that you begin th inking now abou t how to m a k e this idea an effective m e a n s of exp la in ing what Hope College is t oday . T h a n k you for y o u r coopera t ion .

The Students for a Democrat ic Society (SDS) have urged their members to get their hair cut, s h a v e off their b e a r d s and s ideburns and infiltrate the business com-muni ty this summer . The idea is to foment revolut ion off the c a m p u s .

SOME B U S I N E S S M E N ARE fearful of the results of such an infil tration. But I think the SDS is tak ing a bigger chance t h a n business. It's one th ing to stick to your ideals on a c a m p u s with 50 or 60 other students g iv ing you suppor t , but it's another to go off all a lone into the business world and keep f rom being cor-rupted.

Bear ing in mind that most m e m b e r s of SDS are usua l ly the br ighter students, let's go to the Flipper Depar tment Store where Barney Longstreet , an SDS leader, h a s m a n a g e d to get a j o b as a t ra inee in the men's c lo th ing depar tment . For a s tart , Barney has been sticking pictures of Che G u e v a r a in the suits h a n g i n g on the racks—a smal l thing, but as M a o Tse-tung says, " A r evo lu t iona ry must work in the pocket of mos t res is tance ."

B A R N E Y D O E S T H I S EARLY in the morn ing . Since he is a l w a y s the first one there, the men 's clothing buyer is very impressed with him and one d a y announces that he is elevating B a r n e y f r o m his t ra inee position to full s a l e sman .

This surpr i se appoin tment leaves Barney unsettled, a s he wants to pursue the life of the lowliest employee to get the feel of what it is like to be exploited by the capitalist system. Rather than reveal his true identity, B a r n e y accepts the p romo-tion.

His chances of foment ing revolut ion a m o n g the employes are limited to lunch and smoking b r e a k s , and when B a r n e y tells the employes what a lousy deal they have at Fl ipper 's , he a t t racts a l a rge aud-ience.

T H E V I C E P R E S I D E N T OF person-el, who has no idea what B a r n e y is ta lk ing to the other employes abou t , feels that if he can attract such l a rge audiences he must have executive potential and , therefore, he m a k e s him a f loor m a n a g e r at a heal thy

s a l a r y increase. Stricken with fear that he is selling out,

Ba rney h a n d s in a list of r e fo rms which he s a y s the store must agree to b e f o r e h e t a k e s the job. These include Fl ipper ' s Department Store getting involved in the communi ty , d o n a t i n g part of its profits to the employes and setting up an Afro-American clothing bout ique.

These d e m a n d s are sent u p to the pres-ident of Fl ipper 's , and after r ead ing them he says , "Why d idn ' t we think of this first? I don ' t want Longstreet w o r k i n g as floor m a n a g e r . He's too va luab l e to waste there. Br ing him up to the executive offices."

B A R N E Y IS NOW IN REAL trouble because, t h a n k s to his d e m a n d s , profits of Fl ipper ' s a re u p 30 percent, and he is m a d e a vice president in c h a r g e of pro-motion. He is so busy th ink ing up new ideas that he has little time for foment ing revolut ion. In keeping with his position, he has a new apa r tmen t , a new ca r and he spends his evenings at First Avenue b a r s meeting airl ine s tewardesses . The rev-o lu t iona ry activity he has t ime for is read-ing Marcuse on the Long Island Ra i l road when he goes to Wes thampton for the week-end.

Once, in a moment of extreme guilt, Ba rney sits down on the f loor in the pres-ident 's office to show his d i sda in for the system. But when the president and other executives come in, they all jo in him on the floor and they hold a meeting on how to increase the s tore 's c h a r g e accounts . The president finds everyone so much more relaxed when they sit on the f loor that he o rde r s all the furn i ture taken out of his office.

AT T H E E N D OF T H E summer Barney is offered his own store, which Fl ipper ' s is opening in Westchester County; and since he's too a s h a m e d to go back to his SDS chapter and tell them he 's executive vice president of Fl ipper ' s , he accepts. And so the Students for a Democrat ic Society lose another good m a n . Copyr igh t (c) 1969, The Wash ing ton Post Co. Distributed by Los Angeles Times Syn-dicate.

Arwady, Hildebrandt View Years at Hope Hope Dependent on Innovation

By George A r w a d y a n c h o r Edi tor

H o p e Col lege is a pr ivate , Chr i s t i an , l iberal a r t s insti tution at a time when m a n y critics assert that such inst i tut ions a r e a n a c h r o n i s m s d o o m e d t o a slow but cer ta in economic and spir i tual dea th .

T H E T R U T H O F such predic t ions as appl ied to H o p e depends exclusively on whether this inst i tut ion can s imu l t aneous ly m a i n t a i n excellence in academics , p r o v i d e d ivers i ty a n d m e a n i n g in c a m p u s social a n d cu l tu ra l life, and con t inue t o v i g o r o u s -ly p u r s u e the pr inciples of a liberal educa-tion in the Chr i s t i an t radi t ion . This is a tall o rde r , bu t one on which the ve ry sur-v iva l of Hope College depends .

The u n d e r l y i n g a s s u m p t i o n behind four y e a r s of a n c h o r edi torial policy h a s been that H o p e Col lege can su rv ive in the academic wor ld of 1969. The ed i tor ia l s of this n e w s p a p e r h a v e praised those de-ve lopmen t s which we felt increased the qua l i ty of the Hope College experience and criticized those which we felt impeded the Col lege ' s p r o g r e s s in a world which a b a n d o n s b y the ways ide inst i tut ions which c a n n o t be flexible and Innovat ive .

A N D T H E PAST four yea r s h a v e seen a g rea t deal of p r o g r e s s at H o p e Col-lege. The facul ty h a s g r o w n t r e m e n d o u s l y in both n u m b e r s and qual i ty . New depar t -ments h a v e been added , and innova t ive new courses , especially for the c o m i n g semester h a v e been devised. The institu-tion of pass-fai l in non- requi red courses was a n o t h e r m a j o r recent advancemen t , one in a pat tern of exciting a c a d e m i c achievement which takes a back seat to few Amer ican colleges.

In c a m p u s life and student af fa i rs , Hope h a s been m o r e reluctant to m o v e boldly . The last four years , however , h a v e seen a g r a d u a l r e laxa t ion of the g r i p of a u t h o r i t a r i a n in loco parent is policies. T h e life of the coed h a s s teadily become m o r e to le rab le ,no tab ly t h r o u g h the institution of senior keys, the l ibera l iza t ion of c los ing hou r s and the a b a n d o n m e n t of petty d o r m rules. Hope still h a s a long way to g o before its s tudents a r e permitted to com-pletely con t ro l their non-academic lives, but p r o g r e s s in this direction is a s s u r e d l y being made , step by painful step.

S P I R I T U A L L I F E AT Hope has a l so m a d e s o m e excellent advances . The Student C h u r c h is n o w one of Hope ' s most im-por tan t , respected and influential s tudent g r o u p s . T h e C h u r c h ' s Coffee G r o u n d s h a s a d d e d a whole new d imens ion to this

c a m p u s and the S u n d a y services in Dimnent Memor ia l Chape l h a v e prov ided an op-por tun i ty for v o l u n t a r y w o r s h i p which did not exist before. The fou r -yea r min is t ry of C h a p l a i n William Hi l legonds h a s in-stilled a vi ta l interest in rel igion in much of the s tudent b o d y , and the College h a s cont inued to send some of its finest stu-dents each year into the service of the Church . The timely reform of the com-pu l sory chape l requirement h a s l a rge ly removed the only aspect of Hope ' s spiri-tual p r o g r a m which tended to p r o m o t e resentment ra ther than reverence.

The last two yea r s h a v e a l so seen significant i m p r o v e m e n t s in the s t ruc ture of the c a m p u s c o m m u n i t y . Both the new commit tee sys tem adopted last year a n d the new student gove rnmen t o r g a n i z a t i o n a p p r o v e d last mon th are i nnova t i ons with grea t potent ial for i m p r o v i n g the efficiency of dec i s ion -mak ing at the College. These are both steps in the right direct ion, but still l ack ing is the c o m m u n i t y a s sembly where s tudents , faculty, a d m i n i s t r a t o r s a n d trustees can meet together.

T H E S T U D E N T BODY at H o p e h a s become inc reas ing ly l iberal in r ecen fyca r s , and there is eve ry indication that the t rend

will continue. This is ano ther positive de-velopment at Hope, a s m o r e s tudents tend to be concerned with ma t t e r s b e y o n d H o p e and yet exhibit a m a t u r e de te rmina t ion to run their own lives. T o a c c o m p a n y this c h a n g e in ou t look on the part of much of the student b o d y is a c o r r e s p o n d i n g liberal-ization on the par t of the faculty a n d Board of Trustees, h igh ly significant develop-ments which h a v e general ly gone un-noticed.

All these p rogres s ive advances at the College d u r i n g the last four yea r s are ex-actly the type of con t inu ing c h a n g e which Hope needs to at tract better new students, d r a w fine y o u n g faculty m e m b e r s to t h e c a m p u s and bu i ld a case to e n c o u r a g e fi-nancia l con t r ibu t ions f rom a lumni , the Church , the g o v e r n m e n t and pr iva te foun-da t ions . Together these i nnova t ions con-stitute the Col lege 's m a i n hope for the future and its best i n su rance of cont inued excellence in the l iberal educa t ion of its s tudents .

E V E N AS T H I S p rogress h a s taken place, however , it h a s become clear that there are three m a j o r r o a d b l o c k s to con-tinued innova t ion at Hope , three p rob lems which must be o v e r c o m e in the next few yea r s if the College is to con t inue and prosper .

The first of these m a j o r p rob lems lies in the lack of established cri teria for dec i s ion-making at H o p e College. There are no guidel ines b e y o n d the genera l rule that all decisions shou ld be m a d e in accord with the r a the r undef ined " C h r i s t i a n prin-ciples of the Col lege ." T o o often we h a v e seen decisions m a d e without sufficient ra-t ionale by ind iv idua l a d m i n i s t r a t o r s and committees.

I T IS E S S E N T I A L that one or m o r e of the College commit tees turn ea r ly next year to the task of es tab l i sh ing written, concrete policies out l in ing the principles of the school in genera l and the specific-re la t ionship between the school and its s tudents in pa r t i cu la r .

A second p rob lem which 1 see developing on the c a m p u s is a belief in a ph i losophy of c o m m u n i t y which does not permit s ignif icant f reedom of dissent. This ph i lo sophy views the College as an integrated c o m m u n i t y in which all mem-bers subsc r ibe to a certain wor ld view and in which there is unity in both con-duct and b c l i c i .

T H I S ALL-PERVASIVE concept of c o m m u n i t y does not at all c o n f o r m to Hope College real i ty. This is a c o m m u n i t y , but one in which ext remely plural is t ic ele-ments reside. It would be a g r a v e mi s t ake to insist on homogene i t y of va lues a n d conduct when the object of the College is to t r a in s tudents to successfully par t ic ipa te in the a m a z i n g l y diverse na t iona l com-muni ty beyond the Pine G r o v e and V a n Raalte. The unified c o m m u n i t y a r g u m e n t carr ies the grea t d a n g e r of pe rpe tua t ing a u t h o r i t a r i a n con t ro l over the lives of s tudents by power-wielding trustees and faculty who a re completely out of touch with the non-academic lives of the stu-dents. T h e ind iv idua l , not the commun i ty , should m a k e the decisions which affect that i nd iv idua l ' s pe rsona l life. The diver-sified elements in the c o m m u n i t y shou ld come into the dec i s ion-making process only when c o m m o n academic and cul tura l con-cerns a r e the subject of del ibera t ion. Stu-dents shou ld r u n s tudent affai rs , and all d ivers i f icat ion of b e l i e f a n d conduct shou ld be tolerated which does not un fa i r ly im-pinge on the f reedom of others . Any th ing less is anti thetical to the principles of aca-demic f reedom which this college must re-spect and defend if it wishes to r e m a i n a vital academic entity.

T H E T H I R D R O A D B L O C K on the College 's p rogres s ive pa th to fu ture ex-cellence and s ignif icance is the potent ia l d a n g e r that a s h a k y H o p e College budge t m a y tempt the Admin i s t r a t i on and B o a r d of Trus tees to s low-down or halt i nnova -tion at the College in o rde r to sa t isfy con-servat ive- leaning m e m b e r s of the consti-

tuency. Such act ion, while p e r h a p s a d d i n g a few pennies to the college coffers on the short r un , would lead over an extended period of time to the s t a g n a t i o n of the College 's innova t ive efforts and the death of Hope College as an institution of h igher educat ion .

These obstacles can and must be over-come. The p rogres s ive accompl i shmen t s of the past four y e a r s can be cont inued and expanded 'in the yea r s to come, and Hope can rise to a p e r m a n e n t place a m o n g the great Amer ican l iberal a r t s colleges. The oppo r tun i t y is there; I only hope the a n c h o r has pushed the College to realize its g rea t potential , a n d I can look f o r w a r d to cont inued p r o g r e s s at Hope as an a l u m n u s .

Education: the Central Goal Of Hope By Tom Hi ldebrand t

a n c h o r Assistant Edi tor

Three a t t r ibutes of H o p e College are f requent ly descr ibed as " t h e th ings that m a k e Hope Col lege the un ique inst i tut ion it is ." These are its " sense of c o m m u n i t y , " its " in teres t in its s tudents as total h u m a n be ings , " a n d its " d u t y to interpret know-ledge in the light of Chr i s t ian precepts ."

ON T H E S U R F A C E , it seems that a r g u m e n t aga in s t these a t t r ibutes would be futile and r idiculous. How can one poss ib ly o p p o s e " c o m m u n i t y " or " interest in the total h u m a n be ing?" They seem as o b v i o u s l y g o o d to most of us a s f lag, Mother a n d apple pie ( o r Dutch Apple pie).

E D U C A T E D M E N , however , shou ld look benea th the surface, and it is at this deeper level that these a p p a r e n t l y g o o d proper t ies d o not a p p e a r as flawless as they d o on the surface .

A T T H E O U T S E T , it must be stated that H o p e College is p r imar i l y a n edu-ca t iona l inst i tut ion. Hopefu l ly it is more t h a n that , bu t it o u g h t to be at least that. Its p r inc ipa l p u r p o s e for existence is to impar t knowledge—knowledge " in te rpre -ted in the light of Chr i s t ian precepts" cer-ta inly , but the e m p h a s i s shou ld be on im-par t ing , not in terpre ta t ion. Any th ing that interferes with the c o m m u n i c a t i o n o f k n o w -ledge h a s n o place at an educa t iona l in-sti tution, even a Chr i s t ian one. ( F o r those concerned with the a d v a n c e of the Fa i th in t o d a y ' s w o r l d , p e r h a p s that sen tenceshould read "espec ia l ly in a Chr i s t i an o n e . " )

O N C E T H I S IS realized, it becomes clear that the College exists for the benefit o f t h e s tudents . Th i s implies two things.

F I R S T , T H E College must d ispense with the no t ion that the facul ty is the Col-lege. Th i s idea is medieva l in effect a s well a s in or ig in , d o i n g m o r e h a r m t h a n good to the inst i tut ion. The funct ion of the facul-ty m e m b e r is to teach. If he c a n n o t d o that j o b sa t i s fac to ra l ly , he shou ld not be here, r ega rd l e s s of how much exper ience

he has or how m a n y articles he h a s pub-lished.

The oppos i t i on to faculty eva lua t i on , for ins tance, does not take this into account . The s t u d e n t s " es t imat ion of a teacher 's abili ty to c o m m u n i c a t e is not considered for facul ty p r o m o t i o n s or the g r a n t i n g of tenure. Yet the mas t e ry of c l a s s r o o m tech-nique is the mos t impor tan t skill of a teacher. In an institution dedicated to the intellectual edif icat ion of the student , this m a k e s n o sense at all.

S E C O N D , T H E PRIMARY i m p o r t a n c e of the s tudent implies a de-emphas i s of the op in ions of o f f -campus m e m b e r s of the Hope const i tuency. The College exists to c o m m u n i c a t e knowledge, not the m o r a l and rel igious views of the v a r i o u s sections of op in ion that m a k e u p the Reformed Church in Amer ica . E d u c a t i o n a l policy should be m a d e by those who a r e schooled in educa t ion , not by l aymen w h o are un-fami l i a r with both Chris t ian educa t iona l p h i l o s o p h y a n d what is actual ly h a p p e n i n g in Ho l l and , Mich. If f a r - removed a lumni , con t r ibu te rs and f r iends of the College a r e par t of this " c o m m u n i t y of s c h o l a r s , " we need a new v o c a b u l a r y .

This conc lus ion is s t rengthened when it is noted that the C h u r c h does n o t c o m e c l o s e to pul l ing its weight in the s u p p o r t o f t h e College. It h a s p rov ided us with a g u i d i n g ph i losophy , m o r a l suppor t and a g o o d n u m b e r o f s t u d e n t s , and for these we a re t ru ly gra te fu l .

U N F O R T U N A T E L Y , I T S mate r i a l con t r ibu t ions h a v e not a p p r o a c h e d its in-tangib le ones. At present, H o p e s tudents p a y for 7 3 percent of the o p e r a t i n g budge t of the College—a percentage f a r a b o v e that at mos t qua l i ty church-aff i l ia ted institu-tions. If o u r o f f -campus const i tuency would like to see the Co l l egecon fo rm m o r e c l o s e l y to their e d u c a t i o n a l ideas, m o r e f inanc ia l suppor t would cer ta in ly bols ter their a r g u -ment. As it is now, the studer.4 b o d y is the m a j o r segment of the College c o m m u n i t y , fiscally a s well a s phi losophica l ly .

TOM H I L D E B R A N D T

1 d o not m e a n to give the impress ion that the op in ions of students a r e total ly d i s r ega rded in dec i s ion-making . On the c o n t r a r y , H o p e ' s g o v e r n m e n t a l s t ructure is p e r h a p s o n e of the most p rogress ive in the coun t ry , and cer ta in ly is decades a h e a d of the dec i s ion-making process of m a n y la rger , m o r e pres t ig ious universities.

Y E T W H E N T H E C H I P S a r e down, the welfare of the ind iv idua l s tudent is not considered the i m p o r t a n t factor indecis ion-m a k i n g , a s it shou ld be. An i m p o r t a n t r e a s o n for this is the misuse of the three causes o f H o p e ' s uniqueness ment ioned at the b e g i n n i n g of this essay .

Often, i nnova t i ons which s tudents con-sider benef ic ia l ' a re cast aside because " t h e y would des t roy H o p e ' s sense of com-m u n i t y . " A d m i n i s t r a t o r s and facul ty m a k e

this s tatement a s thr)ugh'i t were a demol ish-ing b low to a n y a r g u m e n t , a s t hough this " sense of c o m m u n i t y " were the s u p r e m e virtue.

U N F O R T U N A T E L Y , MANY stu-dents d o not see it this way . F o r one thing, it has never been establ ished that Hope indeed has a sense of c o m m u n i t y . If it has, the next task is to define what k ind of c o m m u n i t y is mean t . A pr i son h a s a sense of c o m m u n i t y , too—a sense, incidental ly, which is enhanced and ma in t a ined b y l iving and eat ing together—yet this type of thing shou ld cer ta inly not be preserved here. And if H o p e ' s c o m m u n i t y is defined as a bene-ficial one, i t^ remains to be demons t r a t ed that its a d v a n t a g e s outweigh the benefits of increased p e r s o n a l f reedom. This kind of a r g u i n g f r o m u n p r o v e n a s s u m p t i o n s must s top ifr s tudents a r e to t ake Hope ' s " c o m m u n i t y s ense" ser iously .

T h e same k ind of t h ing can be said for the defense of rules passed because " H o p e takes a n interest ' in its s tudents as total h u m a n be ings , not just while they a r e in the c l a s s r o o m . " It is a big j u m p f rom this s ta tement to the asser t ion that this interest necessitates locking w o m e n into do rmi to r i e s at 11 p.m. or r equ i r ing them to account for themselves when ' they a r e " o n the ou ts ide ." If there is a r a t iona l expla-na t ion for this " l e a p of f a i th , " it wou ld be nice to hear it.

T H E C O L L E G E S D U T Y t o ' in terpre t knowledge a c c o r d i n g to Chr i s t i an pre-cepts" is likewise misused. T o b e sure , this in terpre ta t ion is one of H o p e Col lege 's s t r o n g points. But re fus ing to permit stu-dents to act c o n t r a r y to these precepts is coercion, not in terpre ta t ion. Dictat ion in the gu ise of g u i d a n c e shou ld not be per-mitted to continue.

In shor t , it is impera t ive that the Col-lege carefu l ly define exact ly wha t it wishes to be a n d accompl i sh . S h o d d y a n d s l o p p y concept ions of its g o a l s h a s led to r e t a r d a -tion of academic and social p r o g r e s s in the pas t , and will cont inue to d o s o in the fu ture unless e l iminated.

Capitalism and Racism By Sis. Jackie Barker Edited bv J o h n Brown

Review of the News

At the present time, due to the advances m a d e in m a n ' s k n o w -ledge, it is quite difficult fo r ra-t ional people to deny the scien-tific evidence of o u r basic equal-ity. Yet black people still exper-ience hostilities and d iscr imina-tion which derive f r o m racia l pre-judices. These prevai l ing preju-dices h a v e a source that c a n be perceived.

L I F E IS h a r s h l y competitive. Many poo r whites envy the b lacks in their success in f ind ing a v iable protest movement . They need one, too. However , it is easier to ha te than to think of a way to m a k e m o r e and better-p a y i n g j obs ava i l ab le , or m a k e a m i n i m u m income fo reve ry fam-ily the law of the l and .

This na t ion h a s got to settle u p o n a policy that would a i m to dis tr ibute fair ly an a s ton i sh ing wealth including all its su rp luses and potential p roduct ive capaci -ties. Do we need wars and mili-tary spend ing to keep our econo-my going , or can it be harnessed to p rov ide the schools , houses , food, etc. that m a n y need and don ' t h a v e ? Until such p rob lems are solved, the bit terness between the two races shal l continue. This is a reminder of m a n ' s dev ious ability to conceal his real s t rug-gles by a small r eac t iona ry rul-ing circle of capi ta l is ts who keep their exploi tat ive position intact by keeping the w o r k i n g class di-vided on the issue of race. T h e reason whites in this coun t ry d o not focus upon the real exploi ters is they h a v e been led to believe that rac ism in isolat ion is the f u n d a m e n t a l cause of the exploi-tation of the toiling masses .

T H E BASIS OF the re la t ions of p roduc t ion unde r the cap i t a -

list system is that the capital is t owns the m e a n s of p roduc t ion but not the w o r k e r s in produc-tion—the wage l a b o r e r s , whom the capital ist c a n neither kill nor sell because they are pe rsona l ly free, but who a r e depr ived of the m e a n s of p roduc t ion and , in order not to die of h u n g e r , a r e obliged to sell their l a b o r power to the capi ta l is t and b e a r the y o k e of ex ploi tat ion.

H a v i n g p roduced such tremen-d o u s forces, cap i t a l i sm h a s be-c o m e enmeshed in con t rad ic t ions which it is u n a b l e to solve. By p r o d u c i n g l a rge quant i t ies of com-modi t ies and reduc ing prices, cap-italism intensifies compet i t ion, ru ins the m a s s of sma l l and med ium compet i t ion , reduces pur-c h a s i n g power, with the result be ing the imposs ib i l i ty of dis-pos ing of the commodi t i e s pro-duced. By e x p a n d i n g p roduc t ion a n d concen t ra t ing mil l ions of worke r s in huge mills a n d fac-tories, cap i t a l i sm lends to the pro-cess of p roduc t ion a socia l char -acter and , thus , u n d e r m i n e s its own founda t ions . The socia l char -acter of the p rocess of p roduc t ion d e m a n d s the socia l m e a n s of pro-duct ion; yet the m e a n s of produc-tion remain p r iva te capi ta l is t p roper ty which is incompat ib le with the social c h a r a c t e r of the process of p roduc t ion .

" T H E S E C O N T R A D I C T I O N S between the c h a r a c t e r of produc-tive forces and the re la t ions of p roduc t ion m a k e themselves felt in periodic crises of ove rp roduc -t i on . " The capi ta l is t , finding no sufficient m a r k e t , is then com-pelled to suspend p roduc t ion , and des t roy m a n u f a c t u r e d g o o d s at a t ime when mil l ions a re forced

The idea for the center origi-na ted in a church d i scuss ion g r o u p and the Lat in Amer i can Society in H o l l a n d . Several churches and socia l agencies h a v e jo ined in p l a n n i n g the center.

Kegg's Choice By D a v e Allen

Kegg Chr i s t ian began to c o m e to his senses, like a man f loa t ing u p to the top of a pool of water , and ever so s lowly realized that he was du ty b o u n d to know what he was g o i n g to d o next year .

Kegg was a senior . And K e g g w a s worr ied.

NOW T H O S E A R O U N D h im, e x t r a o r d i n a r i l y enough , knew wha t their fu ture p lans were, a n d even if they didn ' t h a v e a n y fu ture p l a n s at all that was still better t han Kegg . He d idn ' t know any-thing. He didn ' t know if he was g o i n g to succeed or fail. And fail-ure, Kegg figured, took abou t as much active p l a n n i n g as success and since he, p o o r fool, h a d taken n o step in a n y direction he was left in l imbo, b o u n d to certain u n k n o w n h o r r o r s .

Poor Kegg knew that the fates held him p ros t r a t e to a life of sheer con fus ion and con t inua l a l a r m . N o mat te r what a v e n u e he tried to n a v i g a t e the ill winds of time cas t him in to obl ivion a n d down- t rodden s o r r o w .

NOW IT WASN'T as with some that K e g g h a d n ' t tried, for, in fact, he had . Whenever there saun te red by the picture of a goa l well with-in his reach and one that seemed soul sa t i s fy ing some c a s u a l s t r a n g e r would ment ion some-th ing to the effect that he d idn ' t see the wor th in such an e n d e a v o r . And so Kegg ' s d r e a m would p lummet to the g r o u n d .

Kegg w a s so r rowfu l . K e g g was dazed .

And people! People, c l a s sma te s , teachers, pa ren t s and all other th ings out there that th rea tened Kegg ' s world e v e r y d a y were tear-ing at his th roa t .

"WHAT ARE YOU d o i n g next yea r , K e g g ? " ( T h e y would s a y " K e g g " if they r emembered his n a m e and C r a i g if they d idn ' t c a r e . )

And Kegg would s ay , " I dun-n o , " with a ve ry hesi tant voice, one which w a s a lmos t p lead ing . Or if it were a g o o d d a y Kegg would s ay , " I'm go ing to find a c u r e for cancer and r a i s e the d e a d , " ( v e r y a s su red like). T o which people would say " t h a t ' s n ice" or " o h ? " d e p e n d i n g of cou r se on whether or not they were listening.

NOW FOR LACK of a n y t h i n g else to do, o r m a y b e in spite of it, Kegg decided to t ake act ion. Now the way to beat the forces that are aga in s t you is to real ly hit 'em with a shock load . Tha t is to say "bli tz t h e m " or " p s y c h them ou t . " N o w to accompl i sh this would take much d a r i n g , do, finesse and genera l s avo i r - f a i r e on a n y o n e ' s par t , bu t in K e g g ' s case it took every ounce of his f ibers.

" H i t the s i tua t ion f r o m all a n g l e s , " was his ph i lo sophy . Sat-u r a t i n g severa l a r e a s would be one method, but a l so s n e a k i n g u p on the enemy f rom beh ind and c lobber ing h im s q u a r e l y on the head was ano ther . So K e g g did bo th , and with the j ack s t r aw

pile of l iberal educa t ion he had never mas te red he set out to lib-e ra te himself f rom the te r ror .

HE APPLIED FOR eve ry th ing f r o m An th ropo log i s t in Neo-I r a n i a n cults t o z o o s p o r e r e s e a r c h in Tibet and every th ing between. If there was an appl ica t ion b l ank for it, K e g g h a d filled it out.

He appl ied for Mental Heal th Officer in the New York lYison sys tem, to Western Theo log ica l S e m i n a r y , to the Peace C o r p s , to Medical School, to G r a d u a t e School in Eve ry th ing a n d for G a m e Warden of Point B a r r o w Seal Hunt ing G r o u n d - to n a m e a few. Dai ly he was send ing b l a n k s out and da i ly he was receiving rejections.

A N D NOW PEOPLE would s a y " a n d Kegg what a r e you d o i n g next y e a r ? " to which Kegg would reply with a wry gr in a n d a s m u g s h r u g of the s h o u l d e r s " I d u n n o , " p a u s e and add " b u t I h a v e m a n y i rons in the fire and we'll jus t h a v e to see ."

And then it happened just a s he never expected it could or would . The fates h a v i n g been m o m e n t a r i l y s tunned were once a g a i n ch id ing him. Kegg never d r e a m e d that there would be a " l a s t r e s o r t " or an " a s s u r e d ac-cep tance" n o less m a n y of them.

NOW WITH SO m a n y v i ab l e op t ions K e g g h a d to m a k e a choice. So u n a b l e to d o this o r that or a n y t h i n g Kegg nestled into his f avor i t e cha i r and chose not to choose .

'Spoon River' Succeeds with Grace and Dignity Editor 's N o t e This week's review of the theatre department's pro-duction of "Spoon River Antholo-gy" is written by anchor critiques editor Bruce Ronda. "Spoon River" will be presented tonight and tomorrow night at 8:0<) p.m. in the Little Theatre.

By Bruce Ronda

Perhaps , Says Nancy Meeusen as Faith Matheny in the theatre depa r tmen t ' s product ion of E d g a r Lee Masters ' " S p o o n River An-t h o l o g y , "

You sit with your friend, a n d all at once A silence falls on speech, and his eyes Without a flicker glow at you; You two have seen the secret together.

Risking general izat ion, I would p ropose that the theatre depart-ment h a s discovered at least one secret of successful product ion , and that secret has m a d e " S p o o n River A n t h o l o g y " a s m a s h i n g success. Certainly it is the ac tors ' en thus iasm and the audience ' s wil l ingness to involve itself in the speeches and lives of the cha rac -ters who resurrect themselves on stage.

B U T BASIC TO ac tors ' a n d audience 's enthus iasm is what I would call the p roduc t ion ' s total-ity, its successful creat ion of a complete and bel ievable environ-ment. Against the unob t ru s ive setting designed by Donald Finn, the marve lous ly effective l ight ing a r r a n g e d by Richard Angstadt , and the musical accompan imen t provided by Billy Meyers, the citizens of Spoon River, 111., rise u p to ar t iculate their potentials and f rus t ra t ions .

Within the frontier context, s o m e cha rac te r s come to deeper self-awareness , m o v i n g easi ly with'the current of American individual-ism and work ethic. Lucinda Mat-lock, por t rayed by J o a n n e Kor-noelje, aggress ively asserts her l ife-philosophy:

What is this I hear of s o r r o w and weariness . Anger , discontent, and d roop -ing hopes? Degenerate sons and d a u g h -ters Life is too s t rong for you— It takes life to love Life.

DAVID C BOTHERS' Alex a n d e r T h r o c k m o r t o n reveals the p ro found lessons of youth and a g e in his single compressed speech:

T H E BOARD ALSO heard the repor t f rom the Student Conduct Commit tee on the p r o p o s a l to permit inter-room visi tat ion. Dr. Richard Vanderve lde , c h a i r m a n of the SCC, reported that his com-mittee had not been in f a v o r of the p roposa l .

History Majors Join in Formal Decision-Making

The history department has de-cided to allow history majors par-ticipation in formal decis ionmak-ing in the department.

The announcement was made b y Dr. Paul Fried, chairman of the department and Dr. David Clark, acting chairman for 1969-1970.

Interested history majors are in-vited to attend an informal dinner meeting in Phelps Conference Room Tuesday at 5:30 at which two student representatives will be selected.

The history department is the fourth department at Hope to al-low student participation in de-cision making.

But I did not know the moun-tains. In age I knew the moun ta ins , But m y weary wingscould not follow my v i s i o n -Genius is wisdom and youth.

The s ame r u r a l c o m m u n i t y c o n -ta ins those whose gifts were frus-trated, who struggled aga ins t pro-vincial restrictions a n d back-woods biases. Miss Meeusen's Mrs. I ^ r k a p i l e reveals both her own Insecurity and her devotion to t radi t ional ethics:

But a promise is a promise And m a r r i a g e is m a r r i a g e , And out of respect for my own character 1 refused to be d r a w n into a divorce By the scheme of a h u s b a n d who had merely g r o w n tired Of his mar i ta l vows and duty.

It would be futile to cont inue cit ing poems which e m b o d y the motif of realized and unfilfilled potential; it is Mas te r s ' gen ius that his " A n t h o l o g y " presents such a rich and unfl inchingly honest por-trait of simple b a c k w o o d s life.

AND IT S H O U L D equal ly be the pride of the theatre depar tment that " S p o o n River A n t h o l o g y " m i r r o r s so effectively the talent of its au thor . Near ly every poem-speech is delivered with skill and grace. The t iming a n d rhythm of individual recitation are com-plemented by the movement of the actors on stage.

Both individual speeches and c h o r e o g r a p h y a re enhanced by lighting a r r a n g e m e n t s which are quite literally the best I have ever witnessed in the Little Theatre. Two examples will suffice to il-lustrate this successful interweav-ing of speech, c h o r e o g r a p h y and lighting. Jim Hers ' character iza-tion of A.D. Blood, the religious c rusader , is well-done in itself, but the way in which the spot-light makes Hers ' eyes two black sockets as he steps fo rward into the light intensifies his charac te r ' s religious fanat ic ism. The use of colored lenses d u r i n g the speech of Dippold the Optician is an imagina t ive and successful device

enhanc ing the fitting of spectacles t h rough which the world is viewed.

Yet ano the r element con-tr ibut ing tp the p lay ' s totality is the effective use of American folk music. It is highly a p p r o p r i a t e that essential ly un t ra ined voices are used, for the music presented was sung by Spoon River ' s people and reflects their own par t icu la r life-style.

"SPOON RIVER A n t h o l o g y " simply must be seen in order ful ly to be appreciated. It h a s techni-cal cohesion, true. But beyond that, it h a s grace a n d dignity, captured especially in Masters ' own epi taph, " Let's to the Fields ." The produc t ion possesses an in-ternal r h y t h m which can on ly be achieved when the poetry of

l a n g u a g e is fused with the poetry of product ion . For this fus ion, for this rhy thm, we a re indeed indebted to the cast a n d staff of " S p o o n River Antho logy . "

NDL Conducts Survey To Evaluate Professors

The New Democrat ic Left is conduct ing a teacher eva lua t ion survey in an effort to provide an instructor eva lua t ion for the student.

According to Rod Grant , the survey was p romoted b y the stu-(

dents' desire for a better eva lua-tion than that provided "by the Adminis t ra t ion and used b y s o m e of the professors . Rod Grant said that the survey used b y the Col-lege " i s not really representat ive and is too g e n e r a l . " He added that the student could not answer the survey used by the College honestly because the student knew the teacher would be reviewing it.

The su rveys will be correlated this s u m m e r and the results published in a booklet to be m a d e ava i l ab l e to freshmen so that they can better choosecourses and pro-fessors, Gran t said.

All the N D L su rveys will be put on open file for use by faculty or s tudents.

The teacher eva lua t ion s u r v e y has been given to every student. Gran t emphasized that the success of the survey depends u p o n stu-dent "conscient iousness in com-pleting and re turning these fo rms . "
