Of the approximately twenty colleges and Universities which offer education courses in Michigan, only eight have* been granted accreditation by this organization up to this date. Previous to its visit, the com- mittee thoroughly studied a one- hundred page report submitted by the education department, which stated its structure, achievements and reasons for believing it should be accredited. The committee met with var- ious individuals and groups on campus including student ad- visors and a selected group of junior students. They also had meetings with various public school teachers and supervisors in the Holland school system who are connected with Hope's student teaching activities. After it has been completed, the committee will turn in its report to the Washington, D.C. headquarters of N-CATE where it will be thoroughly studied. Hope will be notified of its decision during the first week of May. The committee was headed by Dr. Massanari of Goshen Col- lege, Goshen, Indiana. Also among the members of the com- mittee was Mr. Eugene Richard- son, present director of the division of teachers certification of Michigan's Department of Public Instruction. The accreditation, if granted, will further the certification of Hope graduate teachers in states other than Michigan and will also affect Hope's status in its relationship to other small liber- al arts colleges. Up to this point, Hope College has received full accreditation from the Association of Ameri- can Universities, the North Cen- tral Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the Ameri- can Association of University Women, and The American Chemical Society. The Music Department has also received recent accreditation by a nation- al music association. Profs 'Take to the Road" Four Hope College professors are among 175 top scientists and mathematicians from Michi- gan colleges and universities who are "taking to the road" to share their wealth of know- ledge with students and teachers in secondary schools throughout the state. The visiting scientists pro- gram, administered through Michigan State University's Science and Mathematics Tea- cher Center, is being sponsored by the Michigan Academy of Science, Arts and Letters with the financial support of the National Science Foundation. Participating in the program from Hope College are: Dr. Harry Frissel of the Physics Department, Dr. Irwin Brink of the Chemistry Department, Dr. Jay Folkert of the Mathe- matics Department, Dr. Philip Crook of the Biology Depart- ment. The project, being conducted during the academic year, is directed by Dr. Wayne Taylor, associate professor in the MSU Science and Mathematics Teach- ing Center. He explains that the scien- tists, in their one-day visits to schools, lecture and give demonstrations to classes, con- sult with groups of teachers, and more likely than not, give special talks before science clubs after school hours. Dr. Taylor, who was instru- mental in starting a similar pro- gram in Texas before joining the MSU staff in 1959, said the visiting scientist program has a dual purpose. "It not only helps to encour- age those students interested in science as a career, it also helps to produce an informed citizenry concerning science, an aspect which is also vitally im- portant," he said. Schools throughout the state are receiving the program"en- thusiastically," Dr. Taylor re- ports, adding that requests for the visit have come from schools in all parts of Michigan. Other institutions taking part include: Albion College, Cen- tral Michigan University, East- ern Michigan University, Ferris Institute, Kalamazoo College, (Cont'd on Page 3) Faculty To Give 2nd Recital The Faculty String Quartet will present its second recital this Sunday, February 12, at 4:00 p.m. in the Music Building Auditorium.

Good Ole Days

Why the Honor System Will Not Work at Hope College

When men and women both were housed in Voorhees Hall—along with the administration offices, of course, when the women's and men's choirs went on separate tours in opposite directions, those were the good ole days.

When today's dog-eared lecture notes, yellow with age were first composed, when philosophy had no beardy connotation, when art was still rational, those were the good ole days.

When the English kennel was still an office, when chapel was worship—not a course, when exams were exposition, not multiple guess, those were the good ole d a y s

When the campus, particularly the lounges, was not littered with Siamese twins, when last week's exams were used for the first time, when Voorhees was re-decorated—or "re-charmed" as the case may be, those were the good ole days.

When the cheerleaders outnoised Harm, when intel-lectual freedom still ruled every department, those were the good ole days.

When meals were served without a 45 minute wait in line, when students were naturally trusted on their honor and no codes were made only to be broken, when women students were allowed to choose their own attire for weekend use, before men students came in the library looking like something the cat dragged in, those were the good ole days—so were the days before I was invited to leave.

A Prayer We are grateful, our Father, for this reminder that you come

to us where we are, engaged in the routine of our daily occupation. Grant, our Father, that we, on our campus and in our world,

may have our eyes opened to perceive the glory of God at work around us.

Forgive us our sense of shock and fear, for we had long since become indifferent to the fact of Thy presence in our academic world

In our uncertainties and perplexities reassure us that we trust in the good news tha t is your purpose to act in our behalf.

In this is our assurance. You have come to us this day (and each day) in the community of our campus as the Lord in whom our pursuit of knowledge must be centered if we would be delivered from rationalization and confusion.

Make us members of that host who with minds dedicated to God in gratitude make knowledge an instrument of peace and well being among men to the glory of God.

Teach us to accept in humility the signs by which we are pointed to the t ruth of God where we least expect it so that we may not despise even those things which at first seem to lead away and obscure.

Let us act without hesitation upon the knowledge we have received for it is in our response to what God has made known that we find that God is with us.

Comfort us again and again, our Father, in the child of the manger, the man of the cross, the Lord of life.

Grant that in our seeking and in our speaking we may make known by the quality of our scholarship and the depth of our perception that we have learned of him.

At times we must wonder and at times we must ponder, but in all things we must glorify and praise Him who came to us where we are.

May we be transformed by the renewal of our minds, that we may prove what is the will of God, what is good, acceptable and perfect.

Typist Karen Lefgren

In this article I will t ry to connect the basic role of Hope

College with the Honor System in the f rame of reference of admission requirements.

I propose that we need be concerned with three primary areas of honor: personal in-tegrity, academic honesty, and the collective upholding of the basic philosophy and principles

upon which the school was founded.

Let us now examine how we have fallen short in these three respective areas. Concerning personal integrity we are told that knives, forks, spoons, glass-ware, and plates are being appropriated by students for their own use in the dormitories; that a tape recorder has been stolen from the speech depart-ment; and that valuable musical instruments have been taken from the music building.

Turning to academic honesty, I wish to cite a glaring example of cheating. In a final exam given in the area of the social sciences a student was seen erasing the name of a classmate from an exam book at the con-clusion of the exam and substi-tuted his own. I am certain that all of us can think of many o t h e r examples where academic honesty has not been used.

In the t h i r d area, the collective u p h o l d i n g of the basic philosophy and principles upon which Hope College was founded, I wish to examine a question that was asked of me by one of our foreign students. This student, asked how I could consider Hope a Christian Col-lege when I observed students not going to chapel, students repeatedly taking the name of the Lord their God in vain, and s t u d e n t s consuming alcohol. What could I answer when I was confronted with the glaring reality that Hope College is a living example of the hypocrisy existing among church related colleges! My only reply was that Hope could be considered a Christian College in that most of the faculty teach from a Christian f rame of reference.

Why have we fallen short of moral adequacy? Students as a whole have not been the cause of the previous incidents. The majority of the students have no need for a documental honor code because they have an in-ternalized sense of honor and integrity which is evidenced in their daily lives. Our concern then rests with • an influential group that displays no honor, character or integrity. The so-lution to the problem of estab-lishing an effective honor sys-tem which will improve the present status-quo, lies in the in the control or elimination of this group by the h o n e s t students.

In order to see how this may be accomplished I wish to men-tion two honor systems with which I am ecquainted. The first is that of the military honor system. This system is effective because it establishes a strong police system through the stu-dent officers, and offenders are subjected to dismissal f rom the academy or loss of rank. This would not be practical for Hope because we do not wish to be-come a m i l i t a r y school, or initiate a reign of terror. Let us then examine the second sys-tem.

The system used at Antioch College at Yellow Springs, Ohio,

is representative of the type of system used effectively by a

college the size of Hope. The system at Antioch allows stu-den freedom in all areas.

What are the results of this

honor system at Antioch? In talking with the Dean of Women, I was told that in her opinion the morality of the girls at

Antioch was higher than at many church related schools, because her girls faced up to their adult

responsibilities while at college. In talking with some of the students, I found that they did

not experience drunkenness be-cause they did not drink to the

point of intoxication in order to display their depraved state

to their friends as an indication of the violation and contempt

for college regulations as we so often find at Hope. Several

students who were going to

take an examination that eve-ning were questioned as to

whether or not they would use

notes or consult the text. The answer was a resounding "no!"

The admissions policies of

Hope are governed by the con-cept that any student that shows any possibility of making the

grade to be given a chance to

prove himself. While this is a noble philosophy, it has two inherent weaknesses. The first

is that it forces the college into an educational policy oriented

around the all important grade point average which is neces-

sary to push the weak student along by continually requiring

certain goals for extra activi-ties. This artificial prop often

obscures t r u e learning and

serves the ulterior superficiality

of college graduation for the sake of financial or social status.

The second weakness is that

this admissions policy allows the admission of a large group of

students, that are devoid of

character, devoid of honesty, and

devoid of integrity and seek to

get through college with the minimum average in order to

get a diploma which is the

magic key to the sof t job.

LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS

When asked wliy they said that that they would rather fail the

exam i f ' they did not possess the knowledge required to pass

it. When asked about their average they replied tha t no average was required for var-sity team membership because

there were no varsity sports, likewise no fraternities or soror-

ities. The exams are graded pass or fail, with the equivilent of a B at Hope required to pass.

I was told that a recommen-dation from Antioch is sufficient to gain entrance into any grad-uate school in the country. Thus we see that Antioch has placed the emphasis upon true learn-ing and not merely striving to maintain an arbitary average to get a sheepskin.

Why does a system work at Antioch that we realize would fail miserably if applied to Hope? The answer is simple. The admissions requirements of Antioch College are geared to the selection of students who are able to progress academical-ly and socially under such free-dom.

Hope College has arrived at the point in its histoiy where

it must take a stand for either the good or the evil. Hope has

sat on the fence long enough as is evidenced by one of the Deans saying tha t he had, "A

list as long as his arm of stu-

dents he could expell f o r vio-lations of the regulations."

Hope must either enforce or

abandon its basic philosophies and principles as are set forth in the catalogue. The minority

group must not be allowed to despoil and pervert whatever

good Hope is capable of achiev-ing in the future. The charge of hypocrisy by the foreign student must be met.

I think that when we firmly face the grim realization that neither type of honor system

will work at Hope due to the presence of such a group with-out the basic concept of honor,

that we must conclude tha t the Honor System will not work at Hope College.

Greece may seem to be a long way from Holland Michi-gan, but to the members of the Arcadian Fraterni ty Greece

and her peo-ple have sud-denly taken a new mean-ing through a little 9 ^ y e a r o l d , black - eyed G r e e k boy named Anas-tassios Papa-pavlo.

Anastassios has been "adopt-ed" by the f ra terni ty through the Christian Children's Fund, Inc. which arranges for such adoptive measures in 40 coun-tries throughout the world.

The CCF operates under the Foreign Missions division of the National Council of Churches and through this organization is able to provide a great deal of assistance on a limited budget.

The f ra terni ty contributes $120 a year for the full care of the boy. This includes food, clothing, medical supplies, books and tuition as well as full care at a summer camp.

In a letter to Ben Vanden Bos who originated the idea of the f ra terni ty sponsorship, Mr. J. Calvitt Clarke gave an insight into the boy, his characteristics and his background.

Anastassios Papapavlou was born May 27, 1951 and is now in the third grade where reading is his favorite subject and foot-ball his favorite game. He is now in good health and makes very good progress (in school). Mr. Clarke stated tha t among his p e r s o n a l characteristics were, "A well-mannered, helpful, kind little boy."

In telling of the boy's pre-vious history the letter s tated: "This child's family are native to this area and they have been caught in a heartbreaking un-employment situation that has lasted for years. Thousands of refuges have s w a r m e d into Athens during the years of war and its af termath, making work scarce and labor cheap. Then to add to this family's plight the fa ther left home one day and has never been heard of since. Though the mother tries hard, she earns such a pittance that the family go hungry most of

Dr. De Haan to Write For Library of Education

Dr. Robert De Haan, Chair-

man of the Department of Psy-

chology at Hope College, has

accepted an invitation to write

for the Library of Education.

His subject will be "Accelerated

Learning Programs."

The Library of Education is

being published by the Center for Applied Research in Edu-

cation, headed by G. Richard

Gottschalk. The volumes in the

its present trends as a dynamic

institution in American Society.

At the p r e s e n t time, it is

planned to have 75 volumes in

the library.

The Center for Applied Re-search in Education, financed by Prentice-Hall, Inc., Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, has as its aim the improvement of general understanding of the fields of specialization in education. It also seeks to shorten the time between completion of edu-cational research and the mo-ment this information reaches the using educator at whatever level. To accomplish these aims, the Library of Education has

been established as a project of the Center.

Dr. De Haan, who received his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1951, joined the faculty of Hope College in 1956. He is a member of the American Psychological Association, Am-erican Personnel and Guidance Association, Society of Sigma Xi, American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Christian Association of Psychological Studies.

the time. Anastassios was there-fore r e c o m m e n d e d for CCF 'Adoption'."

A Greek boy was chosen by the f ra terni ty since the name "Arcadian" come from the old Greek province "Arcadia" and too, because the f ra terni ty is a Greek letter f raterni ty , XOE.

Through various fund-raising campaigns the f ra terni ty hopes to continue the project with the ultimate aim of bringing Anastassios to the United States and Hope College.

Debaters Travel To State of Ohio

Afte r a month of inactivity the Hope College Debaters are preparing for a week-end sched-ule of three speaking engage-ments. On Thursday the de-baters leave for Bowling Green, Ohio, where they will partici-pate in an audience debate in the University Union against a team from Bowling Green.

On Saturday they will com-pete in the Annual Buckeye Invitational Debate Tournament a t Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, and on Monday they will appear before the Men's Brotherhood of the Bethel Reformed Church in Grand Ra-pids. In all the debates the students will be considering the national intercollegiate debate resolution: Resolved: That the United States should adopt a program of Compulsory Health Insurance for all citizens.

At Bowling Green on Friday Leonard Lee, a Holland senior, will team with Herbert Tillema, a f reshman from Arlington, Vir-ginia, against David Miller and Mike Pheniger, two Bowling Green State University seniors. Lee and Tillema will uphold the affirmative side of the proposition.

On Saturday at Kent State Tillema will advocate the a f -firmative in four rounds of de-bate, with Peter Eppinga, a Holland sophomore, as his col-league. Supporting the negative side at the Buckeye Tourna-ment will be Ann Herfst , a Holland junior, and Mary Whit-lock, a Chicago junior. These same four debaters will clash in a cross-examination style de-bate on Monday evening at 8:00 a t the Bethel Reformed Church in Grand Rapids.

Accompanying the students will be Prof. Robert L. Smith, instructor in speech and director of debate. He will also serve as a judge a t the Buckeye Invi-tational Tournament at Kent State.

Parties! Parties! Parties! Hi everyone,

Chi Phi Sigma The Arkies started their second semester activities by

electing their "most eligible" bachelors for the Dutch Treat Week "Bachelor Bank" last Friday evening.

The ^'Bachelors" and their classes are: Bruce Roelofs, freshman; Gary Nederveld, sophomore; A1 Dietz, Junior and Jim Stull, senior.

Echos of "Deep Purple" have been sounding through the XOE House during the past week as the Arkies began prac-ticing for the All-College Sing. Dean Nederveld is the di-rector of the Arcadians this year.

Tomorrow night the men of Arcadia and their dates will journey to Goshom Hills for an evening of tobaggoning to be followed by refreshments at the fraterni ty house.

Sigma lota Beta At the meeting February 3 the Sibs made fur ther plans

for the pizza break to be held on Monday evening. Nancy Meerman is the chairman. Judy Loveys gave the devotions and Jan Koopman gave the serious paper about the music of Claude Debussy. Debussy is of special interest to the Sibs because he composed the song which they will sing at the All-College Sing.

Pizza! Pizza! Pizza!! To start Dutch Treat Week off with a bang the Sibylline

Sorority will hold a Pizza Break in the Terrace room of Durfee Hall on Monday evening, February 13th, from 8:00-10:00 P.M. Now is your chance girls! Grab that guy and bring him along. You won't be sorry for the girls of the sorority will have a hand in making this delicious treat as well as serving it.

Phi Kappa Alpha "Misty" was the theme of the Cosmo's annual formal,

held at the Cascade Hills Country Club on Friday, January 13th.

The evening was a tremendous success, starting with a delicious dinner of filet mignon. Af te r , dinner everyone danced to the music of the "Ambassadors". For entertain-ment Dale Schoon, emceed, and John Gezon did a pantomine skit of Johnny Mathis. Also on the program was a humerous movie, "The Return of Little Red Riding Hood to Hope", starring Cosmos. The girls received white umbrellas for favors.

Phi Tau Nu The members of Emersonian held their annual joint

meeting with the Dorian Sorority last Friday night. The Dorians looked sharp in their new bright red blazers. Sharon Smith gave an enlightening history of the "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and Steve Morse entertained all with his satirical story of an airline company. The Dorian Quartet displayed their talents in a "Whopper" of a song on Trend.

After many months of planning the annual Winter Formal will be held tonight at Spring Lake.

The newly elected officers for the winter term are: Steve Middnernacht Pres.; A1 Peassle, Vice Pres.; Jerry De Groot, Sec.; and Jerry Miller, Sergeant at Arms.

Alpha Gamma Phi "Famous February Figures" was the theme of last Fri-

day's literary meeting. To open the meeting Betty Cooper led devotions. A serious paper followed with Karen Hyink's comment on Abe Lincoln and George Washington.

The formal date is drawing near and by now every gal should have picked her favorite escourt! "Norwegian- Noc-turne" is the theme of the winter formal and will be presented at the Hotel Pantlind on February 24.

Sigma Sigma Bongo drum favors hinted of the theme "Exolica" to

which the Sigma Sigma sisters and their escourts dined and danced Friday evening (Feb. 3) a t the Sorosis winter formal, held in the Spring Lake Country Club. Af ter a delicious steak dinner, mistress of ceremonies, Carol Yonkers, intro-duced Sylvia Wildschut, who played three piano selections, and Donna Davis, who read two entertaining papers. Palm trees. Bamboo, primitive masks, a jungle pool, and music by the Continentals set the scene for the dance in paradise.

Thanks for a fine time go especially to Sally Tellman and Joan Ten Cate, co-chairman of the formal, and to our special guests. Dr. and Mrs. Brown, and Dr. and Mrs. Megow.

Delta Phi February 3 Delphis and dates had a "sehr gute Zeit" at

the informal, "Heidelberg Hideaway" held in Ilfomo's keller. After justice was done to the delicious smorgasbord, it was moved that the informal be retagged the "Munich Munch". The group was entertained by a folktale told by Barb Wal-voord, "Letters to Mama" by Marcia Hondorp and Jean Paduch, a piano selection from Mary Ann Iperlaan, and a spirited folkdance from limber Delphis. We enjoyed the company of Dr. and Mrs. Granberg and Mr. and Mrs. Brown and thank them for joining us.

Congratulations Barb Bloemers was pinned to Jim Betke; and Mary

Jane Veurink was pinned to Ron Zegers.

Basketball Review and Preview A return match against Whea-

ton College found the "Flying Dutchmen" grounded during most of the contest, missing the first seven attempts a t a field goal, and failing to capture any rebounds at all during the first seven minutes of play. Only some spirited last half defensive play by Nederveld, Reid, Van-derbilt, and Jim Vander Hill prevented a more serious trounc-ing than the eventual defeat. The visitors were decidedly anx-ious for revenge, and their inspired playmaking marked a considerable improvement over their last encounter with the Dutchmen.

The Hope cagers redeemed themselves last Saturday night however with a 92-78 victory over Alma. The win, which moved Hope into undisputed possession of second place, was the 6th in MIAA competition. While the contest, played before a somewhat less than enthusias-

tic crowd of 75 paying spec-tators, three timekeepers, and two referees, seemed a decisive victory for the Dutchmen, the only really encouraging factor of the evening was another standout performance by Jim "Spider" Vander Hill, who net-ted 35 points to lead the winners.

The effort b r o u g h t Jim's League total to 188 points in eight games, a 26.6 game aver-age. Wilt Vanderbilt followed with 20 points, and Freshman Ron VenHuizen showed signs of improvement, yet even Coach DeVette felt that the play-mak-ing and ball-handling could have been much better.

Alma Coach Wayne Hintz lost four players due to second semester ineligibility (including, incidentally, all-MIAA guard Ferris Saxton, who spearheaded the Scots in their last appear-ance here), and the Dutchmen, possibly hindered by the lack of spectator enthusiasm, could

Meet the Captain A member of two champion-

ship teams, and captain of this year's squad, Bill Vanderbilt is concluding his four years of action on the Flying Dutchmen this semester. While Bill, better known to area fans as "Wilt", is not often a headline perform-er, as say, one of his roommates, high-scorer Jim Vander Hill, his solid consistent play, especially under pressure, has decided many a ball game in favor of the Dutchmen. Just recently, a t Alma, "Wilt" turned in one of his best performances of the year hitting eight for seventeen from the floor, and sinking four consecutive free throws to score twenty points in the victory.

"Wilt" hails from Oostberg, Wisconsin, where he was co-captain of his football team, and also co-captain of a basket-ball squad that turned in a winning season of 23 wins and 3 losses. While a t Hope, Bill has also been active in track, where he tied for the MIAA high jump championship in his sophomore year.

A history major, hoping to coach a high school team in Wisconsin next year. Bill's aca-demic efforts placed him on Dean's list this term. He is a member of Blue Key, H-Club, College Linen Supply, SNEA, the Arcadian Fraternity, and this year's player representative from Hope to the M.I.A.A.

Bill's greatest thrill, during the three years on the varsity,

came last year when the Dutch-men swept two games from

Calvin. While maintaining the traditional silence which coaches

and players usually exhibit be-fore a Calvin game. Bill does

not s e e m at all pessimistic

about this Wednesday's encount-

er. It is typical of the 6'3"

senior, whose good-natured per-

sonality and friendly manner-

isms have won him the admir-ation and respect of all who know him. A wonderful mixture of fighting determination and exceptionally good-sportsman-ship have made Hope students extremely proud to be able to point out "Wilt" as captain of the Flying Dutchmen.

P.A.

not assume a significant lead

until the third quarter.

During the first ten minutes,

Alma, sparked by game high-scorer Tom McPhillips with 36

points, Dave Peters, with 20, and other reserves, brought up from the school's intramural

league, managed to tie the

Dutchmen t h r e e times, and emerge at the end of the first half with a mere 45-42 deficit.

Tomorrow night the Dutchmen

will travel to Adrian and at-

tempt to repeat their earlier victory over the squad, now cur-

rently pressing Hope for second

place.

Next Wednesday, the team

will take the floor in what will probably be the most exciting

game remaining in the schedule. It is certainly the most crucial.

For, despite the fact that the

Dutchmen have only a very dim chance for retaining the MIAA

championship, even in the event

of a v i c t o r y Wednesday, it

seems that the success of the entire basketball season hinges

upon how the team fares against

this traditional rival, Calvin.

Regardless of how sound this philosophy is, it has provided

area sports fans with some of the most thrilling ga^nes that

basketball fans anywhere have been privileged to see.

Last year, the Knights tasted bitter defeat not once, but in both encounters, and there is no doubt the Calvin five (practical-ly, to a man, the same five that were trounced last year) con-sider this contest quite neces-sary to avenge themselves. A Hope victory, while it would not necessarily w r e n c h the MIAA from the boys from GR, would certainly remove the icing from the cake.
