Cottages too wasteful Presently the College uses

approximately 30 on-campus houses, called cottages, in which students have extra freedom that comes with living in this semi-off-campus atmosphere. The College has maintained an ad hoc system of buying more of these cottages every time there is an expected rise in enrollment.

These cottages are bought in various stages of decay (although some are kept up quite well).

The state of the cottages means that not only are they at times uncomfortable, but just as im-portantly from Hope's financial standpoint, they also waste vast amounts of energy. In a great many cottages there are no storm windows, and where these do exist, the residents seldom ask maintenance to install them in the winter.

Also, because students do not directly pay for the heating bills, often doors are left open and thermostats get turned up, creating nice roasty (and costly) temperatures. Surely the amount of money spent every year by the College just to pay for the energy costs of each cottage is far greater than that spent to keep warm the same number of students who live in larger residence facilities.

This does not mean that we advocate doing away with all of the cottages; the more casual atmosphere provides students with a nice change of pace. What we do suggest are two ways in which the problems of both energy and enrollment can be better met with.

The first way, already being experimented with to a greater extent by the College, is greater use of apartment complexes, owned or leased by the College from a third party. This predominant ly apartment residence set-up exists in numerous other colleges, the nearest being Grand Valley State Colleges. The use of apartment complexes has several benefits.

The first advantage is that college maintenance would be less because the apartments would not already be in states of disrepair, as is now the case with cottages.

The second asset afforded by apartments over cottages is their greater energy efficiency. True, students would still be able to turn up the thermostats, but at least the heat loss through drafty windows and doors left ajar, not to mention the wateful energy planning of the house ar-chitecture itself, would more than compensate for this. Ob-viously, discipline would be better maintained than is now possible in any of the cottages. With the use of more apartments, lik Parkview, a supervisor more like those in dorms could reside in the apartment.

The next benefit in switching to use of apartment buildings is that these leased buildings could more easily adapt to changes in enrollment. If the school begins to foresee a drop in enrollment for the upcoming year, they could more easily cancel their lease for apartments than they could sell cottages.

Without doubt, this greater adaptability would make the use of apartments more enhancing. Not only this, but the economically designed apart-ments, would, in the long run, save the College much more money than the cottages ever could.

Our books deserve belter by Clark Coding

Among my duties a s a student worker at Van Zoeren, I close up the library two nights a week. I have come to the con-clusion that most Hope students do not know the proper way to treat l ibrary materials and the library itself.

I am referring to the misuse and abuse of the books, bound periodicals , mic ro f i lms , and o ther m a t e r i a l s

Ramps do serve purpose After reading your recent editorial

concerning the handicapped, I was surprised at the obvious lack of research by the anchor On this sensitive and very complicated subject.

Section 504 is a Civil Rights Law that gua ran tees equal opportunities for handicapped persons based upon the conviction that such individuals are able to perform effectively and successfully in all phases and at all levels of society. This law states u no otherwise qualified han-dicapped individual in the United States shall solely by reason of handicap be excluded from the participation and be denied the benefits of or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance."

Hope College, through financial aid awarded to students, receives in excess of $1,600,000 each year from the federal government. In addition, Hope has received over $4,000,000 in low interest federal loans towards the construction of Kollen Hall, Phelps Hall, the fraternity complex, Gilmore Hall, DeWitt Cultural Center, and the Peale Science Center. This federal assistance has helped over two generations of students receive a Hope College education. The expenditure of $30,000 for r amps does not seem

unreasonable. Remember, handicapped persons a re taxpayers too.

Hope College is attempting to comply with the intent of the law. This law does not mandate without exception that each and every building, book, and electrical outlet be made accessible. New con-struction and the alteration of facilities must be readily accessible by han-dicapped students, employees, and the public. The College must do what is fair and reasonable to upgrade existing facilities and is not required to do so a t the expense of the financial integrity of the institution. Cost factors may be used in determining whether or not an ac-commodation is "reasonable" or "undue hardship."

There a re many problems with the regulations, but I would not agree with your s ta tement that it is "realistically impossible for Hope to make all of its programs accessible to handicapped students." We have had handicapped students graduate from Hope in the past, despite obstacles of climate and ac-cessibility. We hope that we will make it easier for them in the future.

Sincerely, William K. Anderson

vice president for business and finance

available for student use. In addition, the general way in which students treat the library leaves much to be desired.

As I walk around collecting the bound issues of periodicals that are left lying around, I am appalled at the treatment that they get. Many have pages torn out, because students, frustrated a t the library's policy forbidding the circulation of bound periodicals, "borrow" the ar-ticle they need and plan to " re tu rn" it when they are through.

E v e n w i t h t h e i n e x p e n s i v e photocopying available, many people feel that it is their right to destroy (yes, destroy) library materials. Students tear articles out of both the bound periodicals and the newspapers the library receives, with no thought as to future users of the library materials they destroy.

Another rule that students feel f ree to break is against food (and drink) being brought into the library. Sure, you might get the munchies while studying, but the Kletz is open almost as much as the library, so eat your junk food there.

The reason behind this rule is obvious, but it appears that many students cannot see the obvious, for as I go around af te r closing, I am shocked by the number of Burger King bags that I find. Apparently another favorite is Kletz coffee, judging by the number of empty cups I find lying around.

The rule is for the protection of the s tudent ' s investments , the l ib ra ry materials and furnishings. Yes, it is your investment, because part of the tuition that you pay each year goes for additional

Correction An article printed in the last issue of the

anchor entitled "80 income gets t ighter" mistakenly noted that Hope has failed to remain within its budget for the last twelve years while in fact the College has remained in the black for this period of time.

library materials and furnishings. But this does not give you the right to

say "I pay $5050 to go to Hope, so I can do as I please," for if every student took this viewpoint, the money that goes for ad-ditional library materials and furnishings would be depleated because of the cost of replacing the damaged materials and furnishings. The tuition that you pay as a student would not begin to cover the cost of replacing one of the many ra re books and valuable first editions the library owns, and chances are, if one were destroyed, it wouldn't be replaced.

The basic t reatment of the library itself leaves much to be desired. As 1 men-tioned above, too many students misuse the library facilities by bring food and drinks into the library. In addition, too much waste paper is left lying around, many empty pop (and beer) cans a re left around (even with the 10c deposit), and most of the chairs are left scat tered about the library, something that shouldn't be happening.

Van Zoeren is an academic library, not a high school library, so treat it like one.

A spotlight for faculty

A special section containing some of the many articles and books written by professors here at Hope has been set up in the browsing area of the Van Zoeren Library.

At a library staff meeting in mid-October, a discussion centered around the desirability of giving more prominence to faculty publications. It was decided that shelf space will be set aside in the browsing area on the first floor where the faculty publications will be highlighted.

In this area one can find articles and books dealing with the diverse topics that Hope professors a re interested in, from "Blocking 5-2 Stunted Defenses," by George Kraft, associate professor of physical education, which appeared in the November 1977 issue of Scholastic C o o c h t o "How Groups In tens i fy Opinions" by David Myers, professor of psychology, which appeared in the March 1979 issue of Human Nature.

Linda Visscher , coord ina tor of technical services, said that "faculty response was overwhelming-we have almost 50 articles on display."

Aren't we to blame for our boredom?

Hillegonds

back in state

Rev. William Hillegonds, Hope's for-mer chaplain, will be returning to Michigan this winter to take on new responsibilities at the First Presbyterian church in Ann Arbor, MI. Since leaving Hope, Hillegonds has been preaching at the Second Reformed Church in Pella, IA.

Hillegonds left his post at Hope in the summer of 1978, thus terminating his job, held since 1965. After Hillegonds' resignation, assistant chaplain Peter Semeyn took over full responsibility of the chaplain's office until the ap-pointment of Chaplain Gerard Van Heest at the end of November last year.

A recent Kletz conversation revealed to me a double standard that is a definite practice on Hope's campus. Since double standards are so often a student's pet peeve I thought I'd point this one out.

Let me start by asking a question: how often do we blame ourselves for the boring lectures we so vehemently con-demn outside of class? I think we have to answer that one rarely if ever. And yet, at the same time, we ask to be respected as responsible adults. Thus the double standard: we won't be held responsible for something within our partial control but we want credit for being responsible. Hmmm

The particular conversation I was a part of accused our professor of merely giving a lecture. The course, a literature class, was the perfect set-up for critical interpretive discussion, and yet our professor failed to hold any. It didn't seem to matter that the professor had asked for opinions and that the students had been asked to read the material ahead of time so that they'd be able to discuss it. What concerned the students I talked to was that they had to sit through a droll lecture of that particular professor. Sadly enough, this is often the attitude held by students in courses that present a bulk of material. Justifiably so??? I can't agree.

There ' s a wealth of knowledge represented by the professors at Hope. As students we come into contact with segments of that knowledge whenever we enter the classroom.

Unfortunately, unless our professors are as creative as they are intelligent (it doesn't seem to make a difference that a straightforward approach might be the best way to present some information), we consider the accumulation of their knowledge boring, or a chore we must complete to receive a decent grade. If we miss class, our concern is usually how our grade will be affected, rather than what personal feelings our professors have. We justify these responses by the fact that we pay tuition, and so it's our professor's job

to teach class to whoever shows up. It seems ironic that while the College

tries to give education a more personal touch by encouraging a closer relation-ship between students and professors, some students choose to break down that ideal by not being responsible agents within that relationship.

The double standard here involves wanting to be treated with respect without returning it. We want an ex-tension, to be given the benefit of the doubt, and to be allowed to take the test at a later date. At the same time, it's a student's prerogative whether he com-plies to the request to have assignments in on time, show up for class on time, or participate in discussion. We're quick to criticize professors for playing favorites, and yet we play favorites among them. It 's a never-ending dichotomy.

Our control over a classroom is amazing. The mood set by having everyone present and ready to go is t remendous . By asking questions.

chal lenging ideas, and offer ing § suggestions, a student can not only ^ enhance the excitement of a lecture, but also, because he is an active participant, increase his understanding of the material.

Most professors welcome an in-terruption in their lecture. It lets them know that students a re paying attention and following their ideas. However, the present state of a majority of students is that of a sponge. We sit in class quietly absorbing material. Periodically we wring ourselves out over a test or paper and then begin to absorb again.

The same people who complain about being a number in a system have created the machine by dehumanizing their professors through their attitudes and actions. It 's a part of the system that 's in our control. We can slow down its process if we want to. It's that simple.

by Tim Taylor Well, here it is once again-winter

sports season, which usually means a long, harsh winter for Hope sports fans. At the risk of sounding pretentious, I'd like to submit the odd notion that it could be different this snow season for our gallant teams, as we have some bright rays of hope in our winter program.

In men's basketball, coach Glenn Van Wieren, beginning his third year at the helm of the Dutch cagers, thinks that his team has the capability to rebound from the 5-17 season in which they were defeated in their last eight games. This isn't just pre-season optimism, however, as seven of the 12 to make the squad have at one time or another been on the varsity squad at Hope and the other five have moved up from coach Greg Afman's fine

'78-'79JV squad. Given these summaries , it looks like Coach John Patnott feels that both the this winter sports season won't be quite as

men's and the women's swim teams will droll as the past couple for Hopeites. In show a good size improvement over last fact, if we all wish real hard, these season's inaugural squads. Several of the franchises might be able to keep us at or team members will have a good chance at near the top of the MIAA men's All-Sports qualifying for the NCAA Division III race (there is not a women's contest).

Pafnoff confident

to make waves this season Hope by J o r d o n L o c h

Unknown to many Hope residents, there exists a winter activity in which 26 people participate. What could it be? They a re the all but brand new (one year old) Hope swim teams. Involved in this activity a re 14 women and 12 men. Both teams a re instructed by head coach John Patnott and assistant coach Barbara Bos.

The first chance for the Dutchmen to get their feet wet in competition will be this Friday at Kalamazoo. The women's swim team will be going into the MIAA relays, with seven women returning f rom

last year 's strong third-place finish in league standings. Those returning in-clude Leslie Bethards, Lynn Bufe, Linda Leslie, Nancy Vande Water, Joan Wilterdink, and Deana Palladino, "all of who placed in the league last yea r , " commented Patnott . Hope's women will probably be contending with powerhouses Kalamazoo and Albion, the teams to beat this season.

In the team's efforts toward victory, a freestyler 's tandem of Leslie, Scholten, Vande Water, and f reshman Ann Stone will be strong points. Also figuring in on

the scoring will be the diving coups, led by Bufe, who will be trying to repeat as conference champion on the one-meter board.

Newcomers to the team a r e Beth Bischoff, Kathy Breyfogle, Corey DeWitt, Lisa Gidday, Claire Jelensberger, and Fern Palma.

Their counterparts, the men, will also begin their season with the MIAA relays this Saturday at 2 p.m. in the Dow Center. Unlike last year, the men's team will be entering competition with a full boat. Returning from last year a r e Craig Anderson, Tim Jasperse , and Dave Moored. A new member of the team to watch is be Pa t Nelis, a junior t ransfer from Kalamazoo, who will be freestyling with Jasperse and Moored. Along with the freestyle, the breaststroke will be a favorable advantage for the squad. The f reshman trio of breaststrokers includes Jack Huisingh, Mike Schumaker, and Mark Trudell.

The varsity men's swim team also includes potential newcomers Roy Davis (a converted trampolinist), Tim Davis, Darryl Elzinga, Beck Green, and Billy Lydens.

Patnott summed up his season forecast as optimistic for both men's and women's swim teams.

Let us not get overconfident, however, just because it is the customary position to see our four-letter word at the top since we have the strongest fall sports program in the MIAA. Combined with the solid spring sports program, an acceptable winter program should enable us to take the title out of the hands of the Albion Britons, who have had it for the last two years.

Finally to the purpose of this column. I 'm sure that all of these athletes would a.) kill, b.) beg, c.) do many assorted favors, d.)all of the above to see you cheering them on. And who knows, maybe your encouragement could bring home the All-Sports title to Holland.
