a few hundred people in attendance.
Designed by sculptor GeorgeBaker, the fountain is 24 feet longand 3 feet high, built of stainlesssteel and containing six movingparts. ,
"This sculpture, though primara creation of the artist's aesthetic
sense, is intended to reflect andcelebrate the technological role ofCaltech and its strengths and contributions in its centennial year.The was designed toachieve a motion as simply
efffortles:sly as possible," said
Caltech's centennial music andart subcommittee commissionedthe sculpture in celebration of itsCentennial this year. Chaired byEdith Roberts, an Altadena resident, the subcommittee raisedfunds for the sculpture receiv-
donations from thecommunity, induding trustees,faculty, and associates.
The fountain itself stands inMillikan Pond, and has two basesections. There are large, curvedplates that gently rock due to thewind or pumped water. Two elongated forms with vertical axes aremounted on each of the basethat tilt back and forthslowl .
. According to Caltech, no sig-m~cant in the water sup-pIled to Pond win berequired-the current recirculationsystem win still be used.
The sculpture will also changecolors as the steel reflects thechanging sunlight during varioustimes of day. "The aesthetic con-cern of art is to create active,living which cause an emo-tional to take place be-tvveen andenvironment," said
Baker has been a professor ofsCllptllre for 26 years at Occidental, and his works are dislpla'yedprivately and publiclyrClllnT1'V and worldwide.

administrators out of troublebut help students or teachers.
The administrators and districtofficials the schools haveno intrinsic incentive to actuallymake them better for students. Allthey have to do is sound good infront of their boss or the voters.What we have is a central planningsystem: Ask any Russian whetherthis is a good idea. Capitalismmight work better, if there were asystem that forced schools to com-
for students, while allowing allstudents to have the ability tochoose where to go. At least thisis what I think.
Not everyone agrees. Instituting choice might just producechaos, at least at first. Anotherworry is that bad schools would getworse from lack of funds as enrollment went down, so that the kidsstill going to them would really getscrewed. There are probably otherconcerns too: the United Teachers
viewpoint balance, instead of scholarly depth: an Israeli and an Arab,a couple of biologists and an engineer, two historians and a physicist, three undergraduates andseveral grad students, so many forand so many against.
The first duty of universities,especially great universities such asCaltech, is to teach, to inform. Thisforum failed. It was throwntogether too quickly and involvedtoo few people who were really expert on the complex subjects at issue. (Probably there are few atCaltech, but they can be imported.)It served as a town meeting, a tally of voices, not an intellectual interchange.
What was the hurry? Iraqis andAmericans will still be dying nextmonth, perhaps next year. Caltechshould set up another teach-in, butthis time do it right.

Most teachers want to teachwen, to do a good job andtheir students, just because of personal integrity. low pay, lowstatus, and overwork do not helpattract good teachers to the publicschools. This is especially true inmath and science, where a competent individual can make muchmore money somewhere else thanteaching high school. School policy and administration also affectsteaching quality - and lots ofschools have inflexible rules that

from Jim Hershberg's fifteendiplomatic history summary

Unlike the 1965 teach-ins aboutthe Vietnam War, last dis-cussion of the U.S.-Iraq inRamo Auditorium conveyed littleinformation - only sound-bite

We also had Sex and Violence night, but that didn't go over as well.We saw Night of the Living Dancing Nekkid Dead. As Joe Bob Briggs, drive-inmovie critic of Grapevine, Texas says, the one a movie is not allowedto be is boring. But this was. Ya know, 1coulda sworn we had more more thanthree people watching when we started. I don't think even beer, the great eqllalizerfor movies, coulda helped this one.
1 was getting equalized myself over at Keith's place on Friday night while1was waiting for John to show up. It took longer than I thought for him to outwit the entire Freshman, Sophomore, and Senior classes. And when he finallydid show up 1 was pretty pissed that he had been to Tommy's and not broughtme anything. Ya know, Michelin is having about as much luck with cars as MikeMossey does with cats.
That same night, Jo, Ahmed and Tamn took off to Vegas. They hung outall night drinking and wolfing down free breakfast bar food. But on the wayout of town Jo ran up on a curb and got a flat cause she was trying to take apicture out the sunroof. Seeing as how they had spent all their money in the
. slots, they needed a way to buy a new tire. So Tamn put on one of those featheredhats and started to Now in opinion, Jo looks pretty good in those littleskirts, and in any case a better Ahmed. But you'd be surprised how manysick people in Vegas want to take home a skinny Egyptian boy for a half hourof fun. So while Jo was out at the bar, Ahmed was out earning moneythe hard way. But dawn for the tire and a comfy seat cushionfrom Pep Boys.
