83rd Anniversary— 10 Hope College, Holland, Mich. 49423 November 14, 1969 Boards approve Black Coalition room request by Jean DeGraff anchor Reporter I he Administrative Affairs Board and the Campus Life Board unanimously approved the request of the Black Coalition for a meet- ing room at a joint meeting Mon- day. THE BLACK COALITION had originally petitioned the CLB for a "black student union." The CLB decided it was necessary to meet with AdAB to discuss the issue. At the joint meeting, the Boards changed the wording of the re- quest from a "black student union" to a "meeting room." The Boards also passed the motion that the Black Coalition appoint a committee to consult with Dean for Academic Affairs Morrette Rider and Dean of Stu- dents Robert l)eYoung to find a room for black students. The action was taken at a special closed-door session of the Board. 1 he original request of the Black Coalition stated that it "is the general feeling among the members of the Black Coalition that a black student union is necessary for the survival and well-being of the remaining blacks on the Hope College campus." OTHER REASONS pointing to the necessity for a meeting place for black students were listed in the request. The request stated that "other olficial organizations are given places to meet, socialize, discuss, etc. The entire black pop- ulation feels alienated, frustrated and depressed at Hope; the union will thus be a way of relieving those psychological strains. "The upsurge of withdrawals from Hope among blacks is indica- tive of the discontentment; there- fore, an effort should be made by the College to rid the black stu- dents of this dissatisfaction. We feel that the black student union will be a start," the rationale said. CLAUD1NE MOORE, a repre- sentative of the Black Coalition, emphasized that the blacks did not want a new building, but a new room on campus where they could meet. Miss Moore stated that the room would be a place on campus "where the blacks could find re- fuge and security. The blacks want a place where they can preserve their black identity." Below GLCA average Hope fees compare well by Tom Donia anchor Editor Hope college students are get- ting a "bargain" in the price of their education compared with students of other GLCA colleges. EVEN THOUGH Hope stu- dents pay less than students at other colleges, they pay a greater percentage of the total instruc- tional cost. At Hope, student fees pay 80.6 percent of the operating budget this year. That figure has been steadily increasing. During the 1967-68 academic year, stu- dent fees paid 74 percent of the budget. This contrasts with GLCA member school Wabash, where students pay only 4 5 percent of the operating costs of the college but fees are $665 higher than at Hope. Fndowment and gifts make up the rest of the expense. At Oberlin. student lees pay 5 5 per- cent ol the cost of total instruc- tional cost. At Antioch. however. 83 percent ol the college budget is paid by students. Averaging all GLCA schools, about two-thirds of the operating budgets are paid by student fees. ONE LARGE SOURCE of in- come tor many schools is endow- ment. Lndowment consists of gilts given to the educational insti- tution for investment. The return on the invested funds is then used to offset operating expenses and for scholarships. Hope has the lowest endowment of any GLCA school, with S 1.800.000 invested. The return from this investment represented 2.2 percent of the operating budget last year. At Wabash, about 28 percent of the operating budget is paid by endowment. Oberlin College has a whopping S ( >0 million in endow- ment. the largest of all GLCA schools. Return from this invest- ment pays 40 percent of the budget at that college. I ndow- ment at other institutions in the GLCA averages to about $18 mil- lion each, and pays about 15 percent of the operating budget of each school. STUDENTS HAVE been pick- ing up the tab at Hope College as Relormed Church support and alumni giving have declined in recent years. In 1^66-67. Re- formed Church giving helped with 6.4 percent of the budget, while las! year the Church only contri- buted 4.8 percent. Alumni giving has dropped from 6.4 percent to 4.6 percent of the budget in the same number of years, while stu- dent fees paid 6 percent more of the budget. President Calvin VanderWerf explained the low endowment and the increase in student fees by saying, "Hope has always been a poor school. Ever since its begin- nings a century ago, Hope has never known where its money would come from. That's where faith comes in. We have to have faith in Hope and in the future." COLLEGE TREASURER and business manager Clarence Hand- logten said that Hope's small en- dowment was because "churches and donors like to see brick and mortar, but are hesitant to give large, unrestricted gifts to be in- vested by the College." Vander- Werf added that the endowment has been traditionally small at Hope College. (continued on page 3. column I) MISS MOORE added that the room would expose "the beauty of black culture to all and be a benefit to whites as well as blacks." The room would benefit the white student as he could be integrated into a black culture, she said. She stated that included in the room would be black literature and pictures of great black lead- ers. ALLEN SMITH, another repre- sentative of the Black Coalition, stated that the black student has nothing to relate to when he comes to Hope College. The room would be "someplace lor the black student to go and talk with his own people." He added that there is no place where a black student can go because "every- thing on campus is white." Miss Moore also said that be- sides being a meeting place for blacks, the room would be a headquarters for making contact with other black organizations at colleges in the Great Lakes Col- leges Association. SHE ADDED that the room would be used for a tutorial pro- gram where upper class blacks would help incoming black stu- dents having problems in their studies. Dr. David Clark stated that it was no new policy to grant an organization a room on campus. "The only issue is if this request is different from a request from any other organization." Clark added. DR. ROGER Rietberg said that the difference is that other organi- zations on campus transcend whiteness or blackness. Clark stated that the Black student request for a room was analogous to any other organi- zation because the room was to be set up to fit social needs. "The black students have needs that are peculiar to them. Ways must be found to resolve those needs. If the black students are not able to have a self-identity, they are going to be the poorer as people," he added. ASSOCIATE DEAN for Aca- demic Affairs John Stewart stated that rooms such as sorority and fraternity rooms are given on the basis of external distinctions. A room for black students "should be justified on that basis alone." he added. Dr. John Hollenbach said that "any community should arrive at a point where you talk about human values, leaving off black or white." The question is to what extent a room will contribute to all members of the Hope com- munity, he said. SMITH SAID that the blacks want to benefit their own people after they leave college, and in that way help the entire world. He continued, "If Hope College is going to continue to bring in black students, it has to make it bearable for them." Student Congress president Tim Liggett said that he sympa- thized with the black students' desire to preserve their identity. However, "a black student is here to get an education so that he can enter society. That society is nine- tenths white and only one-tenth black. If the black student is merely educated for the black society, he is receiving only one- tenth of an education." MISS MOORE answered that there was irony in Liggett's state- ment because the whites are "not taught to relate to a black society." Smith further stated that a black student does not come to college to learn how to live in a white community, because he al- ready knows how. A MOTION WAS also passed by the Boards that the Black Coalition appoint a committee to consult with Rider and Dean of Students Robert DeYoung to find a room for black students.

Hope fees compare well by Tom Donia anchor Editor

Hope college s tuden t s are get-ting a "ba rga in" in the price of their educat ion compared with s tuden t s of o ther GLCA colleges.

EVEN THOUGH Hope stu-dents pay less than s t uden t s at o ther colleges, they pay a greater percentage of the total instruc-tional cost. At Hope, s tudent fees pay 80.6 percent of the opera t ing budget this year. That figure has been steadily increasing. During the 1967-68 academic year, stu-dent fees paid 74 percent of the budget .

This contras ts with GLCA member school Wabash, where s tudents pay only 4 5 percent of the opera t ing costs of the college but fees are $665 higher than at Hope. F n d o w m e n t and g i f t s make up the rest of the expense. At Ober l in . s tudent lees pay 5 5 per-cent ol the cost of total instruc-tional cost. At Ant ioch . however . 83 percent ol the college budget is paid by s tudents . Averaging all GLCA schools, about two-thirds of the operat ing budgets are paid by s tudent fees.

anchor essay

A call to resist illegitimate authority Editor's Note: This week's anchor essay is wri t ten by Glen Pontier. Pontier is a 1968 graduate of Hope College and an outspoken crit ic of the war in Vietnam and the Selective Service System.

by Glen Pontier

Perhaps someday college stu-dents will wake up. They will see and begin to unders tand why their appeals for change in our society have gone unheeded. They will realize, among other things, that they have been dealing almost exclusively in words, while those who actually direct the course of this nat ion respond only to power.

WHEN T H E final pet i t ion is wri t ten and the demons t ra t ions are ended, when the last teach-in lecture is comple ted and the bull sessions b r e a k u p - t h e n the men who cont ro l o u r inst i tut ions will sit back, finish making their own plans and chuckle to themselves. For they are not at all impressed by that meaningless little five-letter term - " w o r d s .

They seem to know con-sciously what most demons t ra to r s suspect only unconsciously; that when the taxes are levied to sup-port the war, the s tudents will pay; when the call is given for soldiers to f ight , the s tudents will serve. The " idea l i sm" of you th would be a t ruly beautiful part of life, except it is all too o f t en willingly submit ted for the "real-ism" of the s ta tus quo. For some strange reason the human mind grows to think the phrases "neces-sary evil" and " rea l i sm" are syn-onymous .

BUT SOME of us choose to think that we have faced these facts, that power responds only to power and act ions can be combat -ted only with action. What we have to say now will not please the liberal^ the modera te , the scholaf^ the man of sweet reason and calm.

We are tired of your games and of your lies. Your defenses fo r an unworkable and immoral system disgust us. Your calls of gradual-ism and modera t ion have been discredited. Call us anarchists , communis ts , facists. Call our ac-tions rebellious, revolut ionary, chaotic , destructive.

WORDS RIGHT ORDER

LEGITIMATE DIA LOGUE REASON

EXPEDIENT JUST

AUTHORITY EVIL INSTITUTION LIES

GAMES UNJUST IMMORAL ILLEG ITIMATE UNFAIR BANKRUPT PER VERTED

BUT ALSO remember that you have labeled your own act ions as just , necessary, legitimate. You have lost the au thor i ty to judge us or our actions, just as you have lost the ability to label things correctly. Your te rms mean little to us; they are inverted; they are a perversion of your minds.

We believe war to be evil, while you have deemed it a necessary expedient . We believe any death to be a defeat of the wor th of human life, while you have de-clared batt le victories on the basis of body counts . We have pro-tested the war in Vietnam as nothing less than criminal, and while you have admi t ted it is an error, you call it u n f o r t u n a t e and refuse to end it immediately .

WE CALL FOR internat ional harmony based on d isarmament , while you cont inue to jockey for positions in the game of inter-national power politics. We have pointed to the injustice and un-fairness of the d ra f t , while you bicker in Congress over whether to make it a lot tery or only to draf t the youngest , most impres-sionable and malleable first.

It is no longer enough f o r us to decry the exercise of your author-ity; it is illegitimate and morally bankrupt . There are t imes when man must resist the established

o r d e r - e v e n when that order pre-sumes to carry with it t he weight of l a w - a n d that t ime exists now in relat ionship to the dra f t and Vietnam. We shall resist your every a t t empt to cont inue this wrong.

WE LITERALLY CRY. But we cry ou t as w e l l - S T O P T H E WAR. If you will not , than we will. And we speak with no joy in o u r hearts, only fear and awe that we have the courage to speak at all. We will proceed to violate those laws which are unjust by dis-rupting military training centers , refusing induct ion, burning Selec-tive Service records, d isobeying military orders, withholding de-fense-designated tax monies.

We shall s l owly - s t ep by step, and individual by i n d i v i d u a l - d o

every nonviolent act within o u r power to bring about the destruc-tion of a system which has insti-tutionalized and given a shroud of respectabil i ty to des t ruc t ion . In our a t t e m p t s we shall be guided by no illegitimate civil au thor i ty , by no cries to halt in the name of o r d e r - s a v e the au thor i ty of life itself.

IN DENYING death we will affirm life, demanding of our-selves that our act ions be as strict in our respect for life as they are resolute in ending this present path of death .

If our stand appears to you unthinking, emot ional , irrational, indeed crazy, then call us mad-men! For if your act ions are right and s o u n d - t h e n we have lost the ability to distinguish right f rom

wrong. If y o u r act ions are s a n e -then we plead insanity.

AND FINALLY, if these writ-ten words appear ex t reme, inflam-matory , or ou t of place, remem-ber they are only words and that they represent a pos ture , not a p la t form. While words remain a mode of expression guaranteed by our Cons t i tu t ion , they are also tools which not only antagonize and isolate, but provide the basis of dialogue and communica t ion .

Yet these words should not arouse half the feeling or re-sponse that should come f rom knowing that because of America, 4 5 , 0 0 0 Americans and 600 ,000 Vietnamese lie dead in a count ry whose ecology, culture and econ-omy have been decimated.

This week the anchor made a survey of student fees, endowment, student aid and donations at other GLCA schools. The results were, in a sense, contradictory. While student fees were higher at other institutions, endowment and gifts paid a large percentage of the operating budget at other colleges than at Hope.

President Calvin VanderWerf has cor-rectly pointed out that endowment at Hope has never been large. In fact, endow-ment has not even kept pace wi th the growing financial needs of the College. Alumni and Reformed Church support has

anchor editorials

also lagged behind cost increases. This is certainly not a healthy situation, and to compound the problems, the College has begun a costly building program. In t ime, this wil l mean that additional staff mem-bers wi l l be required and there wi l l be new operating bills to pay.

Many of the reasons for the College's poor financial state are historical. Tradi-tionally, the Board of Trustees, that group charged w i th the legal and financial affairs of the College, has been made up largely of ministers and other Reformed Church men. It is not been a wealthy group. In addit ion, the Board has regularly concerned itself wi th defining policies for the school. The issues have changed-during the ninteenth century the question was first whether Hope should have a separate faculty of theology; then came the issue of Hope College versus Hope Haven University. The Board has always had to deal w i th person-ality conflicts and ideological differences of opinion. Most recently, the Board has involved itself in decision-making concern-ing the master plan projects. But appar-ently too l i t t le time is spent on the operating budget, for the Board has shifted greater and greater responsibility for oper-ating the school onto its students.

If the figures which have appeared in the anchor in recent weeks are accurate,

Dear Editor; Once again the electr ifying impact of

Hope College and Holland, Mich, came to me when I visited the campus during Parent 's Weekend at the College.

We have f reshmen s tudents at Hope. We come f rom a small town and were ra ther apprehensive about sending them away

after reading and seeing the s tuden t unrest at the various campuses across the nat ion.

1 cannot begin to praise the College and the town enough , as all the things I saw and did convinced me that there is still decency and morals left in this world.

I have never seen such a oneness as the boys and the girls of the College have for each other . They behave toward each o ther with such respect and loyalty that 1 never thought could exist.

The night of the Nykerk award was a perfect example ; the boys went all out for the girls and gave them a big boost in their moral. T o have boys a t tend the practice sessions for the compet i t ion and hold placcards saying 4 lYou are o u r Q u e e n s - W e love y o u " is jus t one of the visual ways you can see the close companionsh ip of the students.

All through the c a m p i r there reigned such enthusiasm for the school and for the s tudents that it was very hear twarming to me, as a parent , to know that your own were in such a place.

During the t ime I sj nt there 1 d idn ' t see one of the so-called Hippies that are so much in the news today. The most that could be said was that of those that I saw, thev were on the eccentric side, but were still neat and clean in their appearance.

I talked to many a girl and boy while I was there and they speak of the professors with a great deal of respect and af fec t ion . The s tuden t s have a rough and tough schedule to main ta in , but not once did I hear a compla in t that too much work was given them or that help was no t available when they needed it.

I can honest ly say that there was no t one thing tha t I could criticize about t h e

then trustees spend very l i t t le t ime in actual money-raising. VanderWerf has said many times that we, as members of the Hope community, must have fai th in Hope and the future. But the time has come to convert faith into dollars and hope into investments. The Board should re-examine its role in the College structure, and re-ded-icate itself to "ear th ly" goals.

Students can play a part in the financial future of the College as well. Many friends donate to the College, but lose interest after a few months or years. If it is true, as VanderWerf and others assert, that the College's greatest assest is its students (as it would seem, looking at the percent of the budget which they pay, if in no other respect), then many students might be willing to volunteer a few hours in service to the College's money-raising agencies. Such a program would be helpful in many cases where fol low-up after a "sale" is required, and in fact, many students now donate their t ime to speak to alumni groups and alumni and church groups.

Working together, we can start to pro-vide a more secure future for Hope College, but everyone must do his share.

An opportunity Nest week members of the Student

Congress cabinet wil l be holding special meetings in each dorm and cottage in an attempt to explain how the committee structure functions, and how students can most effectively communicate their views through the system.

This presents students wi th an excellent opportuni ty to not only meet wi th their representatives before the faculty and Ad-ministration, but also to express the frus-trations which many students feel. We encourage each student to attend one of these meetings and to be prepared to challenge his representatives w i th creative ideas.

campus life or the s tudents thereon. They have shown that there is still respect and decency left , and they live by this code. Today most parents think of college stu-dents as being unreasonable , quarre lsome and irresponsible in this day and age. 1 am quite convinced that these are in the minori ty and that if the impressions that 1 have f rom those s tudents on campus at Hope College are any example , the world will be alright. T h e impression that was left with me was that they are a most respon-sible group of young adul ts that take their obligations and responsibilities very seri-ously. Because of them, this world will be a bet ter place for having them as our fu tu re leaders and parents .

The hope of America lies with it 's you th and the infect ious spirit of Hope College is most rewarding. Thank you Hol land, for being so cordial and friendly to a passerby, and my most sincerest thank you , H o p e College, for having and maintaining such high s tandards that are producing some of the finest young people that 1 have ever met. My life is a little brighter ahd be t te r knowing that my own are in such com-petent hands.

The name Hope really lives up to it 's name by giving the world hope , for it 's fu ture citizens are truely our hope . Sincerely; Name withheld upon request

Support gov't Some of the s tudents at Hope College

On Fri-day and Saturday we are going to show o u r support for our President 's peace e f fo r t s and our servicemen by wearing and distri-but ing 10,000 Suppor t Your Gove rnmen t cards to the people of Holland and the s tudents on Hope ' s campus. These cards will consist of th ree colors: red, white, and blue stripes with USA pr inted in blue on the white stripe. All who wear this card will be showing their suppor t fo r their

The great silent

The strategy of the Nixon Administra-tion is now clear t o everyone. It is to condemn the critics and appeal to the people who aren' t saying anything. Last Monday evening President Nixon once again asked suppor t f rom the "Grea t Silent Majority of Fellow Americans ," otherwise known as the GSMFA.

IS THERE A GSMFA, or is it a political f igment of the Adminis t ra t ion ' s imagin-ation? I decided to find out .

I chose a typical American street with typical American houses and typical Amer-ican cars parked in the driveways.

1 went up to the first house and rang the bell.

beg y o u r pa rdon , " I said to the lady who answered the door . "I wish to speak to a m e m b e r of the Great Silent Majority of Fellow Amer icans ."

" Y o u c a n ' t , " she said brusquely. "Why n o t ? "

"HE'S ASLEEP. He's always asleep. Comes home f rom work, eats his dinner and then f lakes out immedia te ly . " She slammed the door .

1 went to the next house, knocked and a child came to the door.

"May I speak to one of the Great Silent Majority of Fellow Americans, p lease?"

She pointed toward the living r o o m . A man, bald head, in his fort ies , drink-

ing a can of beer, was seated in f r o n t of his television set watching replays of last Sun-day's professional footbal l games.

"SIR, I'M DOING a survey of the vast, silent American major i ty President Nixon is appealing to. What did you think of the President 's plan to get us out of V ie tnam?"

The man belched. " D o you agree with President N ixon , " I

asked, " t h a t it is not us but Hanoi who refuses to make peace?"

The man grunted but refused to take his eyes off his TV set.

majority^ by Art Buchwald

"Sir, d o n ' t you have any opin ion on the e f fo r t s of the President to bring about peace with honor to the most troubled spot in all of Southeas t Asia?"

A commercial came on and the man turned slowly to me. " G e t the hell out of here ."

I SKIPPED t w o houses and then rang the bell. A man came to the door and smiled.

"Sir, are you one of the great majori ty of silent Americans to w h o m President Nixon addressed his remarks last Mon-d a y ? " I asked.

"Well ," he said, "if you ask me. . ." Suddenly his wife appeared at the door .

"Who is it? What does he w a n t ? " she asked.

"Fe l low wants t o talk to me about President Nixon ' s speech ."

"Hah , tha t ' s the biggest joke of the year. When they start asking you what you think, then you know the coun t ry ' s in t rouble , " his wife shouted .

"BUT," THE HUSBAND said, "1 be-lieve tha t . . . "

"Bowl ing!" his wife said to me. "Ask him about bowling. Tha t ' s t he only thing he knows any th ing abou t . The furnace is on the f r i t z , but that doesn ' t s top him f rom going out to bowl , while the rest of us catch p n e u m o n i a . Mister, you got the wrong house . "

I decided to try one more house. I rang the bell, and there was no answer. 1 rang again. Still no answer. Then I saw a man j u m p out the back window in his under-wear and run down the alley. 1 chased him. "Sir , could I speak t o you a m o m e n t ? "

" D o n ' t kill me , " he begged. "She told me she wasn ' t mar r ied ."

" I t ' s about President Nixon and his silent ma jo r i t y . "

"Believe me , " he said. " I ' m not a guy who talks."

Heroes and cleaning ladies by Drew Hinderer

One of the more pleasant as-pects of acquir ing the repu ta t ion I have is the surprising f requency with which s tuden t s and facul ty approach me wi th topics to bring before the college c o m m u n i t y in my column.

S U C H A P P R O A C H E S are pleasant in several ways: I am always happy to know that I am read, and I especially apprec ia te the tacit assert ion that I am o f t e n art iculating concerns shared by many others, that I am not alone in my criticisms and comment s . Unfor tuna te ly , many of these ap-proaches involve topics which I feel incompeten t to speak to, or transgress my self- imposed boun-daries of relevance and good taste.

I have been asked several t imes to do a column on the mainten-ance staff. I am aware, for ex-ample, that while most of the cleaning ladies are very f r iendly and considerate of the residents of the dorms they are cleaning, they also have a great propensi ty for long coffee breaks, and loud dis-cussions about mat ron ly topics early in the morning, which upset many of our more economy mind-ed and light-sleeping s tuden ts , respectively.

I ALSO KNOW that at least in the Emmie basement , it is very common to f ind a pair of dozing forms lounged upon our fu rn i t u r e between the hour s of 12:30 and 3 :00 p.m. But I would feel a good deal more like criticizing these individuals if it were not the case that our house is usually fairly clean (except on some weekdays , all weekends, and a f t e r part ies) . Besides, many of the guys in the house enjoy placing small wagers on the time at which the j an i to rs will arise Lorn our basement couch.

I have also been asked to do a column on the parietal hou r s

issue, for example . My primary reason for declining that request was that I would feel as if I were beat ing a dead horse. The entire issue is so absurd that I hardly need to point it o u t : the incon-sistant visitation policy which is pract iced in the cot tages and the Brumler apa r tmen t s (open visita-tion between 9 : 0 0 in the morning or so, and evening closing) while the rest of the college houses remain restrictive and Victorian is simply ridiculous. The desirability of f ree visitation is so patent ly obvious that I would ra ther at-t e m p t to focus on an issue more c louded and in need of articula-t ion.

1 HAVE BEEN asked to expose the art if iciali ty of the role myths mainta ined by many members of our c o m m u n i t y . By these myths , 1 mean the assert ion tha t "Real Men" are big, s t rong, dir ty brutes who, though somewha t stupid, nonetheless c o m m a n d respect by their hulking presence, by their loud, inar t iculate shouts of chal-lenge, and by their singleminded devot ion to forcefu l injury and bad-feeling produc ing competi-t ions.

This kind of m y t h sees itself expressed also in the illusion of masculini ty of bruta l f ra te rn i ty pledging activities, the revving of motorcycles at 12 :30 every night regardless of weather and anyone n e a r b y , c h a i n s of tab-tops (ostensibly f r o m cans of beer il-legally drunk in dorm-rooms) , and f r equen t reservations for rooms at Holiday Inn.

Women, of course, are all beau-t i ful and weak, but cul tured and w i t t y . T h e r e f o r e , any self-respecting woman , with the at ten-dant snobbery that goes with feel-ings of cultural super ior i ty , can expect either to be begged for an

audience by her peer "less-than-Real-Men," or to be swept off her feet by some massive (but nice smelling) brute , his beastly in-st incts barely hidden by his hero jacket .

BUT 1 DON'T really feel up t o turning that in to a whole column. Besides, some of my closest f r iends have been proud of their hero jackets , and I really think tha t some people do derive some good out of athletics and inter-f ra te rn i ty compet i t ion .

society, or whether it will settle into deadening repression, or will simply subside, to little e f f e c t . "

N o a m C h o m s k y , eminent scholar in the field of linguistics. Harvard Fellow, professor at U C L A a n d M I T , Research Fellow at the Princeton Ins t i tu te for Advanced Study and the Harv-ard Center for Cognitive Studies, has a t ta ined addi t ional promi-nence for his active role in the draft resistance movement and as a critic of American political life. But his cr i t iques are of extra-ordinary relevance by the inclu-sion of moral con ten t t oo of ten missing in the works of o thers of prominence .

A CENTRAL thesis of his book, simply s ta ted , is the need for American liberal intellectuals to accept the dual role of repre-senting a society of e n o r m o u s wealth and power , but also shar-ing in the use of that power . He condemns the " n e w mandar ins" for creating an idealogy that justi-fies their claim t o power and restating bo th past and present to suppor t that posi t ion, the age-old problem of man fearing to seek the t r u t h regardless of what it

costs and where it leads, but rather , seeking endlessly to find just i f icat ion and suppor t for pre-conceived or unchallenged ideas.

Chomsky traces his concepts through the critical writings of a handful of American revolution-ary au thors comment ing on var-ious periods of stress in recent American history. Among these is a chapter devoted to A.J. Muste, Hope graduate in the class of 1905 and former anchor editor.

IT IS CLEAR, in Chomsky 's opinion, that the commercial and industrial system should come un-der some sort of popular democra-tic control or political democracy will be a sham. He does not give us assurance that popular demo-cracy will act with any more re-sponsibility in treating this added dimension than it has in the politi-cal arena.

Chomsky seemingly does not accept the thought that human infallibility of motive and action is an oversimplification springing f rom idealism. There is a serious danger that society today is be-coming satisfied with simplistic answers to complex problems based on half- t ruths and incom-plete in format ion .

ENERGIES ARE poured into temporary e f for t s directed to limited objectives; we are satisfied by effort less acceptance of four-chord music; we grow dependent on machines not realizing that even the compute r is a fake with-out a human programmer .

It becomes apparent in the au thor ' s writing that new thinking and social exper imenta t ion are needed to free us f rom our narrow vision, f rom waste and destruct ion and that we need to develop more perceptive social and political con-sciousness. It is, however , Chom-sky's fear that the existing oppor-tunit ies for changes are not likely to recur. " I t is a quest ion tha t calls not for speculat ion, but for commi tmen t and thought and ac-t ion . "

On the American system by John Hunter

Edited by Red Cohen

The American social s t ruc ture of today has been the victim of many a t tacks pertaining to its values and judgments . Such is the case here on campus. The Admin-istration in its actions is represent-ative of the norms of the Ameri-can social s t ructure . Since the Adminis t ra t ion ' s act ions are the resul tants of American socio-cultural mores, and since I (being black) am not intrinsically a part of them, my dis turbance is readily unders tood .

EVERY STUDENT that gives a damn about the direction in which this society is moving should also be concerned about what decisions are being made, who is making them, and how it e f f e c t s h i s exis tence. Black people, having recognized the de t r imenta l i ty of these effects , are taking the necessary s teps towards

being able to decide their own destiny.

The methods utilized by black people in d i f ferent si tuations are not my immedia te concern. My first and most essential concern is t h a t t h e i nd iv idua l decides whether to say yes or no to the establ ishment , and to know why in either case.

IF THE INDIVIDUAL'S deci-sion is negative, then his act ions should be against the establish-ment , i.e., to work for and expose its des t ruc t ion and/or reconstruc-tion. What I am suggesting is a c o m m o n sense e thic p ropounding the uni ty of positive or negative act ion. Take a stand instead of riding the current and saying, " I ' l l be out in x a m o u n t of years, so I won ' t wor ry . " You see, the only escape f rom reality is death . So if you plan on living, then decide

yes and ride the cur ren t ; or no and swim against it.

My answer to the whites and blacks who don ' t k n o w where they stand is simple. The Adminis-trat ion, the Elite, the Power Structure and all o ther representa-tives of a system that have been purposely inconsistent in its distri-but ion of just ice among the people is the valid object of justi-fiable accusation.

IF YOU FEEL that this accusa-tion is being aimed towards you, then you are right if you are a p e r p e t u a t o r of the accused system.

If you are no t sure whether you are a pe rpe tua to r of the system or no t , then ask yourself the following ques t ion: "Have 1 said no and acted noV Or the ext reme, "Have I said yes and acted yesl"

Foreign Study creates awareness of culture by Sarah Penny

anchor Assistant News Editor The Great Lakes Colleges Asso-

ciation, in recognizing the value of in ternat ional s tudy experience, offers foreign s tudy oppor tun i t i e s in various parts of the world.

ASIDE FROM the linguistic and cul tural knowledge to be gained f r o m a foreign s tudy pro-gram, s tudents greatly enhance their unders tanding of thp United States, according to a College of-ficial. " In te rna t iona l encounte r s force the student to come to grips with exact ly what he believes and what he feels America is all a b o u t . The view back f rom across the Atlantic or Pacific offers a per-spective he simply cannot experi-ence in t h e United States ."

One GLCA member college serves as adminis t ra tor for each program, and is responsible for granting credit. Interested stu-dents app ly on the home campus . If the appl icat ion is approved by the individual admissions com-mittee, it is sent to the agent GLCA school for final decision.

THE STUDENT must pay all the fees , which in most cases exceed the annual Hope tu i t ion . "Hope is the least expensive GLCA school , " explained Dr. E.F. Gearhar t , College representat ive to the Internat ional Studies Pro-gram f r o m Hope. " S o m e t i m e s fi-nancial d i f f icul ty arises for Hope s tuden t s . " Some scholarship aid is available. "The junior year is the b e s t t i m e f o r internat ional s tudies," he said.

Foreign study programs are not limited to language minors. "A natural aff ini ty exists be tween foreign language and cul ture , since cultural educat ion is included in the s tudy of language," Gearhar t stated. The language depa r tmen t s at Hope, however, do not admin-ister t h e GLCA foreign s tudy pro-grams.

" T H E I N T E R N A T I O N A L Studies program was begun about eight years .ago in order to give an internat ional perspective to educa-tion, b o t h abroad and on home campuses ," stated Gearhar t . " I t is an a t t empt to release people from the blinders of one cul ture . We tend to look at the world f rom our o w n perspective and d o n ' t see all the ramificat ions. The inter-

nat ional exper ience allows us t o gain new insights and awareness into our own cultural experi-ences ."

Each program differs in cost , dura t ion , and facilities available. All programs, however, fit in to the academic programs of GLCA colleges. An American advisor is available to counsel and aid stu-dents . S tuden t s receive an ap-proved transcript of their credit .

"THE INTERNATIONAL Ed-ucat ion C o m m i t t e e of the GLCA urges s tudents to utilize GLCA programs ra ther than go alone to foreign countr ies for s t udy , " said Gearhar t . Other types of foreign s tudy may be less expensive, but they lack the back-up services provided by the GLCA, he added .

LATIN AMERICAN study is o f fe red in G u a n a j u a t o , Mexico and Bogota, Colombia . T h e Latin-American program is not limited to Spanish majors . S tuden t s f r o m all areas of s tudy are encouraged to part icipate. S tudents live with Latin American families and s tudy under Latin American instructors . Studies are o f fe red at universities and at the GLCA center . S tudents may s tudy Spanish, his tory, litera-ture , art, music, economics , politi-cal science, sociology and geog-raphy. In Bogota a need exists fo r English teachers , and many pro-gram part ic ipants def ray costs by teaching. Costs for the Latin American program are the same as on the home campus . Ant ioch College is the agent college for the Latin American program.

STUDIES IN Beirut are design-ed to give s tudents a "graphic f irst-hand intercul tural exper ience by living and learning at the his-toric meet ing place of Western and Near Eastern civil izations," according to a GLCA spokesman. Kenyon College directs the Beirut program.

The Near East School of Theology annual ly opens five places to American s tuden t s of Islamic and Old Tes t amen t . Since the courses at these universities are taught in English, no language requ i rement exists. A knowledge of French, however, is an asset within the city of Beirut.

IN JAPAN, s tudents s tudy at Waseda University for either a s ix-month , n ine -month or twelve-m o n t h period. Preceding the aca-demic year s tudents par t ic ipate in t w o weeks of o r i en ta t ion , four weeks of language s tudy and three weeks of work exper ience in rural Japan.

Now in its second year of exis tence, Hope ' s thea te r depart-ment is developing in to a valuable facet of the College c o m m u n i t y .

The rapidly expanding scope of mod-ern thea te r makes this a diff icul t task. It creates problems and needs tha t members of the depar t -ment are working toge ther to meet .

Enthusiasm in the depa r tmen t infects bo th the staff and the s tuden t s to crea te an esprit de corps tha t seems to be one of the depa r tmen t ' s dist inctive qualit ies. "We are never lacking in s tudent i n t e r e s t , " c o m m e n t e d George Ralph, assistant professor of the-ater.

J\ykerk spirit lives

Time may already have quickly f lown since th i s year ' s Nykerk compe t i t i on , but not the spirit nu r tu r ed m e r e . It will live on

* indef in i te ly . More than the spirit of c o m p e t i t i o n is the spirit of uni ty and f r iendship , con t inu ing long a f t e r cups are fo rgo t t en , and increasing in value with age.

One s o p h o m o r e t ransfer stu-dent told me this year tha t she could th ink of no be t te r way she could have become an active part of her new class here so quickly and meaningfu l ly . Perhaps not all f r e shman and s o p h o m o r e girls see Nykerk immedia te ly in this light, but dis tance gives a wider perspec-tive. I, as a senior this year , can see more clearly than before the value of Nykerk .

1 o f f e r this s t a t ement because of all the criticism of Nykerk I have heard on campus this year . Some ques t ion the value of such an unprofess iona l p resen ta t ion . I certainly will n o t deny the neces-sity of qual i ty of art ist ic material used, bu t mus t the arts be exclu-sive? Must we deny the right of t h e s e i n e x p e r i e n c e d , hetero-geneous g roups of girls to experi-men t in the arts?

Art is a means of personal expression, and Nykerk embod ie s an o p p o r t u n i t y for the un t ra ined as well as the trained to express themselves. T o these girls this is an inter-expression result ing in lasting memor ie s and f r iendship . Only a small c ampus is conducive to an event of this na tu re , and Hope has in Nykerk a u n i q u e gem.

INTEREST AND willingness to become involved is evidenced in the qual i ty of such thea te r pro-duc t ions as Oh What A Lovely War, presented last week by Don-ald Finn, ins t ruc tor of theater , and members of the thea te r de ' pa r tmen t .

Other major t hea t r e produc-t ions scheduled for this year are Spring's Awakening, t o be pre-sented in mid-March by J o h n Tammi, ins t ructor of t h e a t e r . A yet unchosen play will be pre-sented in early May. In addi t ion to these, several s tudent -d i rec ted and s tuden t -wr i t t en plays will be pe r fo rmed th roughou t the year.

THE CHAIRMAN of the the-ater depa r tmen t is James Mal-colm, who speaks enthusiast ical ly of the d e p a r t m e n t ' s s t rengths and is opt imisi t ic in discussing its weaknesses. Malcolm feels that the d e p a r t m e n t ' s staff is "an ex-cept ional o n e , " but lacking some of the specializations that com-pose the broad field of ta lents in modern theater.

" F o r a school with such a s t rong science d e p a r t m e n t , " Mal-colm stated, " H o p e devotes a con-siderable a m o u n t of a t t en t i on to its theater d e p a r t m e n t . "

BUILDING A larger audience for theater p roduc t ions on the campus is one of the d e p a r t m e n t ' s objectives, Malcolm said. Facilities for theater p roduc t i ons are very limited at present , but the Dewitt S tuden t Cultural and Social Cen-ter will provide greatly expanded facilities.

At present , the aud ience for thea t re p roduc t ions is l imited to the capaci ty of the Little Thea t re and Snow Audi to r ium. The fre-quen t "all sold o u t " signs for drama p roduc t ions indicate more people are a t t r ac ted than can be accomoda ted .

"YOU CANNOT have drama wi thout first having an aud ience , " Malcolm c o m m e n t e d . " O u r prob-lem is to develop an audience that will be receptive to our thea-

trical a t t e m p t s . " He added that thea te r p roduc t ions will be ex-panded to adopt a wider range of d rama exper ience " w i t h o u t of-fending any t radi t ional or cul tural sensit ivites."

Several Great Lakes Colleges Association programs supplement the thea te r curricula. In the New York Semester Arts Program, the-ater majors are given the oppor -tun i ty t o work in a professional theater p roduc t ion in New York City for a semester . Madeline Slovenz, a Hope senior, is pre-sently prat icipat ing in this pro-gram. T w o Hope s tuden t s partici-pa ted last semester .

ALSO UNDER the auspices of the GLCA, ar rangements are being made t o procure a professional specialist in e i ther movemen t or voice techniques . This specialist would circulate a m o n g partici-pat ing schools, spending several weeks at each. Fur ther sharing ventures of this type are probable , Malcolm said, enabling the depar t -ment to compensa te for the lack of specialization in the permanent facul ty .

A significant innovat ion in the cul tural affairs program of the C o l l e g e has been engineered joint ly by the theater depar tment and the Cultural Affairs Commi t -tee. They have arranged to bring Charles Nolte, a distinguished con-t empora ry playwright , to the cam-pus f r o m the beginning of Novem-ber through December 13.

THIS IS THE first in a pro-posed series of "Ar t i s t s in Resi-dence . " During his six-week stay at Hope, Nolte will work in work-shops and lectures and will direct one of his own works. Blessed Daddy, in December .

Ex tend ing Hope College the-ater t o schools, c o m m u n i t y groups and churches is a group of thea te r s tuden t s who are giving condensed touring p roduc t i ons of two plays previously presented on campus . Spoon River Anthology and Oh What A Lovely War. The

tour ing group will present a yet-undesignated play t o various church groups next semester . Pro-duct ions of Sign of Jonah pre-sented on a similar tour last sem-ester were well received.

AS A RESULT of increased course of fer ings in theater this year, 10 s tuden t s have declared a major in the depa r tmen t , while

only one theater major was gradu-ated last year.

Ralph noted that most of these s tudents plan some graduate study in preparat ion for teaching drama in college and high school. Others will work with c o m m u n i t y play-houses and travelling theatrical groups.

T H E V I C T O R Y gave H o p e a 3-5-1 season r e c o r d , which is n o t really ind ica t ive of the t e a m ' s abi l i ty .

T a y l o r ' s season mark was lowered to 3-5 by the d e f e a t .

Bits and pieces by Bob Vanderberg

This week, ins tead of discus-sing one main top i c , I will present var ious pieces of s p o r t s i n fo rma-t ion a n d o the r t r ipe .

F I R S T OF ALL, hats off to the D u t c h f o o t b a l l t eam for their exce l len t p e r f o r m a n c e S a t u r d a y , as they k n o c k e d off Tay lor , 26-16, in Coach D e V e t t e ' s final game. The D u t c h m e n w i n d up with a 3-5-1 r e c o r d , but t h e y can poin t t o the fact t ha t t h e y fin-ished the season with f o u r fine games in a row.

Still, I th ink t h e y s h o u l d have been 6-3 this year . And I'll bet the t eam would like a n o t h e r crack at F rank l in , W h e a t o n and Kalama-zoo. . .

I WAS AT Chicago S t ad ium S a t u r d a y n ight , a long wi th 13 ,590 o the r folks , to wa tch Chicago ' s newest bunch of he roes p e r f o r m . The Bulls did n o t d i s appo in t us, e i ther , as they blew the Bos ton Celt ics o f f t he f loor . T h e final score was 103-87 , and the crowd was a new Bulls' h o m e a t t e n d a n c e record .

It was a new e x p e r i e n c e having such a long wait ge t t ing o u t of the pa rk ing lot on Madison s t r e e t , and then s t ruggl ing in the t r a f f i c j am which e n s u e d . I 've been to a dozen o r so Bulls ' games in the past coup le of years , and t h e r e has never been a t r a f f i c j a m o n Madi-son a f t e r a Bulls ' game . N o t very o f t e n , a n y w a y .

B U T T H E B U L L S are winning, while every o t h e r Chicago team is l o s i n g - e v e n the Owls ( t h e c i ty ' s C o n t i n e n t a l F o o t b a l l League en-t ry , which I k n o w l i t t le , if any-thing, a b o u t - e x c e p t tha t t h e y ' r e losing).

Ac tua l ly , t he Bulls m a y jus t win so m u c h t h a t t h e y c o u l d win the N B A ' s Western division ti t le. T h e y have as m u c h abi l i ty as At l an ta and San F r a n c i s c o ; and Los Angeles, wi th Wilt C h a m b e r -l a i n shelved f o r t w o m o n t h s and poss ibly the res t of t he season, m a y have a f e w p r o b l e m s with M e l C o u n t s p l a y i n g i n W i l t ' s spo t .

L A S T W E E K E N D was a howl-ing s u c c e s s for Chicago ' s teams.

In add i t i on to the Bulls ' win , t h e Black H a w k s w h i p p e d P i t t sbu rgh , 4-1, S a t u r d a y night and t h e n hu-mil ia ted T o r o n t o , 9-0, S u n d a y night . Earl ier S u n d a y , t he Bears , t o no o n e ' s surpr ise , walked all over P i t t sburgh , 38-7 .

Right n o w , I'll say it ' l l be Minneso ta over t h e R a m s , a n d Dallas over Cleveland in the N F L divisional p l a y o f f s - b a r r i n g un -fo reseen in jur ies . T h e n , Minneso t a over Dallas fo r the N F L c rown .

I S A W T H A T O h i o S ta te qua r -t e rback Rex Kern sat ou t t h e en t i re game S a t u r d a y . I a lso saw the Buckeyes won a n y w a y , 62 -7 , over Wisconsin. OSU has n o w w o n

21 s t ra ight f o o t b a l l games. Mike Phipps , w h o s o m e peop le say can walk on w a t e r , will t a k e his Pur-d u e t e a m m a t e s t o C o l u m b u s , Oh io , t o m o r r o w t o see if he can do a n y t h i n g a b o u t s t o p p i n g tha t s t r eak . T h e g a m e will be te levised.

In s o m e k e y f o o t b a l l a c t i on S a t u r d a y , E l m h u r s t s q u e a k e d past N o r t h Cen t ra l , 52 -16 ; H a m l i n e bea t Bethel , 50-0 ; Hillsdale edged Winona , 59-0 ; Mt .
