Hope College draws notice Hope College has been selected one of

six schools nationwide for a book about why those six colleges are succeeding in these hard economic times.

The book will be written by Harvard sociologist David Riesman and his research assistant, Sharon Elliott.

Elliot, 27, of Berkley, Calif., said that such things as curriculum, finances, faculty and students are aspects which will be covered in the book. But she in-dicated the emphasis will be "on the presidency of the, college...on leader-ship."

She said that presidents of small, four-year, private colleges face "a lot of ex-pectations" and are especially pressured to succeed in fund raising.

Elliott first visited Hope last year to look at the school as one of 20 preliminary colleges for the study. She was back on campus this year from October 11-23 to conduct an in-depth study of Hope, the on-ly Michigan college examined. She used a "combination of informal and formal In-terviewing" to understand Hope, which included talks with President Van Wylen, top administrators, members of the

board of trustees, faculty and students. Van Wylen said he gave Elliot

"complete freedom" while she was here. Elliot would not identify the other

schools involved in the study and said, "we feel strongly that we want to protect our sources." She did say that when the book is published, tentatively Jan., 1984, that there will be enough unique informa-tion about each school so that the book

as a detective process." Edward E. Jones of Princeton University calls it "the best written and most involving text in social psychology 1 have ever read."

Myers started work on the book in January, 1979 and in that first year signed a contract with McGraw-Hill and com-pleted chapter one. The book's progres-sion involved 546 hours during the sum-mer of 1980 for the drafting of chapters five-seven. He revised chapters one-sixteen in the fall, 1981 and delivered the manuscript for production on December 31, 1981. The last year (1982) Involved final revisions, editing and production.

Myers has signed a contract with Worth Publishers to write an introduction to psychology textbook. Worth Publisher^ will pay Hope College "a rather large sum of money to cover the project ex-penses", which will Include most of

The Social Responsibility Internship has four openings for next semester.

Tony Mulderman, coordinator of the program and professor of business ad-ministration, said there are positions available in England, India, Bahrain (a neighbor of Saudi Arabia) and Utah. The program is designed to "provide ex-perience for students...who want to use t h e i r s k i l l s for the b e n e f i t of others...especially those facing human need."

The economics and business ad-ministration department started the pro-gram five years ago and It Is ad-ministered directly by Hope. Mulderman said students Involved pay tuition to Hope and their room and board during the semester, but the program provides travel expenses from the students' homes to their Internships and back home.

Most students Involved are economics or business administration majors, but the program Is structured to allow recreation, math or education majors an opportunity to apply their skills. In the

past, students have worked improving ac-counting, payroll, and cashier systems. Mulderman said that in most situations students are placed where the "business end has been neglected."

In Utah, students work at a century-old prep school where opportunities are available for a recreation major to coach and a math or education major to teach.

Credit hours will vary according to a student's structure for the semester. Mulderman indicated hours can vary from nine to sixteen.

The program maintains a fund separate from others In the economics and business administration department, and In 1980 the Reformed Church of America took over fund raising. RCA had to postpone Involvement In the program In April, 1982 due to budget cutbacks. Recently, Mulderman located a group In New York to back the program.

Mulderman can be contacted In the Sllgh Building, 11th Street west of Colum-bia Ave., or at ext. 3045.

A News Analysis by Craig Sinclair and Michael Southwell

The VanZoeren Library was presented to Hope College as a gift by alumnus Dr. G. John VanZoeren and has served as the resource center of the college for many years. Including the branch libraries in

§ the Peale Science Center and the music g building, a collection of 190,000 volumes,

approximately 1,500 current periodical subscriptions, 1,200 cassette tapes, and over 25,000 reels and cards of microtext are available for use. The reference department contains works which locate millions of books and periodicals available from other institutions through interlibrary loans.

The library has served the college well over the years as a resource center but

What are the problems with the library? iir and '

has lately been experiencing a number of problems. Dr. Harry Boonstra, director of libraries, headed a committee one-and-a-half years ago which identified many of the problems. Boonstra stated that some of the problems named by the committee have been resolved while others remain and new ones have developed. The old study is now considered obsolete and a new strategic planning committee will be convening over the next few months to br-ing the study up to date and to suggest necessary changes in the library.

Several students contacted in telephone interviews feel the library has problems which include overcrowding, noise, and a lack of immediately available reference

material. Problems of overcrowding and noise were attributed to the design of the building and are especially troublesome this year due to the library serving a social function in place of DeWitt, which was closed for renovation. Randy War-ren, a junior from Niles, Mich, said that "those who work at the library have recognized the problem of overcrowding for quite some time," yet the problem has been largely Ignored by the administra-tion. Some of the students contacted refuse to study In the library because of the noise problem. Gale Easton of Spring Arbor, Mich., a 1979 graduate of Hope and a special student today, said that "The design of the building as far as Its open In-terior promotes noise. Even someone whispering on the first floor can be heard upstairs." The difficulty of studying in the library was best stated by Kathy Troupe, a sophomore from Grand Haven, Mich. She felt that "If you really want to study you can find a place in the corners, the stairwell, or the basement." Signifi-cant changes are necessary when a stu-dent has to search for a secluded area of the library in order to study. The lack of

i m m e d i a t e l y a v a i l a b l e r e f e r e n c e material has caused some students to wait several days for loans from other libraries.

The problem of noise in the library could be alleviated by an addition to the building which would offer smaller, more segmented study areas. A simpler solu-tion would be the observation of the respect and privacy each student deserves while studying. The problem of overcrowding merits Immediate atten-tion. Only an addition to the library or the construction of a larger library could relieve the crowding, and although students are offered other areas on cam-pus to study, the necessity of quick access to sources must be recognized. The reference section of the library is ade-quate for a college of Hope's size, but it cannot satisfy the calibre of students and faculty here. The need for expanding the reference section will be felt more acute-ly with each passing year. The need for an expanded pr new VanZoeren Library is now recognized as a priority project by the administration.

Global problems and the future

Dr. Lamont Dirkse, professor of educa-tion at Hope College, has been elected president of the Michigan Association of Colleges for Teacher Education.

Most colleges and universities which train prospective teachers are members of the association.

A member of the Hope faculty since 1964 and for many years chairman of the education department, Dirkse has served as the college's representative to the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education the past 14 years.

by Renze Hoeksema The following is the conclusion to last

week's article Global Problems and the Future.

In India and China the village people can be educated, taught child care, sanitation and fed government propagan-da. It is the cheapest way to upgrade developing countries through medical ad-vances and self help opportunities. With all of these attributes, television has brought changes In the family, education, diplomacy and protest that have sometimes been hard to deal with. TV has the capacity In the years ahead, however, to bring all of the diversification in our world together. Linking together those who think alike. We have recently seen this In the nuclear protest movement. If people really want peace In the world the TV screen is there for exploitation.

Today we are confronting the Soviet Union. The zero-sum game, which we are now playlng-where any advance for the Soviets is a sum for them and a zero for us and vice versa-seems Irreversable. If we and they must match every weapon, weapon for weapon, there is bound to be an escalating arms race the end of which can only be war.

There are a few gleams of light in this bleak picture. Hawks rise to the top in periods of confrontatlon-now within the United States as well as in the Soviet Unkm-because doves are always accused of being traitorous. Only hawks can make peace-if the doves try they are traitors. Eisenhower stopped the war In Korea when Truman and Stevenson could not do i t DeGaulle made peace and withdrew from Vietnam and Algeria. President Nixon went to China when Johnson, Hum-phrey and Eugene MacCarthy could not have done it. The other side always wants to deal with a country's strongest demands. If the strongest demands of the other country can be dealt with the resul-tant peace is more stable. I consider the Reagan administration's efforts at arms control exceedingly clumsy to date but I still have a little hope that because Reagan is a hawk he may be able to pro-mote peace.

If Europe refuses to go along with our defense efforts this might limit the arms build-up. If the Third World refuses to go along this might change things. If there is

a dramatic break through In space this might change thlngsTor a while. If there Is a nuclear exchange by two small powers or if there is a nuclear accident and we or some other state loses a city the devastation and loss of life might shock us into reality. If there Is a famine of massive proportions we might see that we have to make peace with our environment and between nations. Or If those depen-dent on social services across the world refuse to spend on arms there might be a slowing of the arms build up. This un-fortunately, might not happen in a coun-try like the Soviet Union where the leadership has a monopoly of arms and the people have little to say about policy.

With our present nuclear armament de t e r r ance s t r a t e g y - w i t h nuc lea r weapons hopefully deterring another country from attackihg-Congressmen vote for weapons which they think will not be used but they also vote for the nuclear freeze. They use both votes to benefit segments of their constituency, and the arms race continues.

We do have some insights into what might be necessary if we are to have a long run sustainable society. They are In-sights if not just extrapolations from where we now are.

1. There must be an end to national state sovereignty over certain global pro-blems. I want to look at the Federalist Papers, which were used by Hamilton, Madison, and Jay to sell the U.S. constitu-tion to the states In the United States. I see four key points in the Federalist Papers:

a. Any system of government set up, national or International, must be workable. The people must control the government, with feedback against various system failures, such as treason, malfeasance in office, etc. Represen-tatives must be given short terms of of-fice, like 2 years In our House of Representatives, so that they can be changed quickly if they don't work out. The Executive must be given power to act quickly and then get approval. The Presi-dent must not be limited to one term, or even two terms, so that he would seek td do well and win another term. These are a simple set of niles that might be used to design a world order-perhaps after we

are shocked into recognizing that we can destroy the whole world, including the United States.

b. The system set up under the United States Constitution had a minimum of bad features and any world order would pro-bably have the same. The U.S. accepted slavery, the Import of slaves for a number of years and the return of slaves for 70 years. This was recognized as not good but It was the minimum required to get approval of the U.S. constitution.

c. There must be an "All win situation" In the new world order constitution as there Is In the U.S. Constitution. Everyone must benefit.

d. There has to be a way to modify the new constitution as there is in our own Constitution. An ideal is not a goal, but a process.

The world must accept these in the next 10 to 15 years If peace Is to be maintalned-1989 plus or minus five years. Global management will be needed for peace keeping, to maintain food and mineral resources, and environmental well being.

By now I am sure that you are thinking that I am a Utopian, a cockeyed optimist or a subversive. Let us see how much of national sovereignty Is already gone. The prosperity of the Midwest grain farmer is controlled by grain sales to the Soviet Union or the Peoples Republic of China. Auto makers prosperity is controlled by competition from Japan and Germany. OH prices are determined by the sheikhs of the Persian Gulf. The value of the dollar Is determined by the nomes of Zurich. Unemployment and inflation are worldwide and cannot be completely curbed by one government. Television links one half the world. Computers stretch across borders. There is an inter-national bank with special drawing rights for countries In difficult financial straits. Our oceans and our weather is effected by a British Columbia forest fire or a volcano explosion. Acid rain drifts across borders. The Great Lakes cannot be cleaned up by just the United States. The terror, hopes and fear of people in their hamlets is determined by worldwide trends. We are far down the road towards systems mechanisms that spread around the world:- The president of the United

Global problems (continued from p. 2)

States makes very little difference on the items 1 have mentioned. We need to think and act in world terms.

Little changes can make a big dif-ference. A few changes in a charter on how the U.N. collects money can make a vast difference. If people must give money for international purposes the in-ternational organizations would not be

Fundraising efforts begin

The annual Hope College Holland-Zeeland community campaign began Thursday, December 2 under the leader-ship of Marvin DeWitt, chairman of BU-Mar Foods, Inc. of Zeeland.

The campaign is part of an annual ef-fort by business people in Holland and Zeeland to raise funds for the current operations of Hope College. DeWitt said that $50,000 of the $220,000 goal has been raised, and he plans on "going over the top" by next June, the scheduled conclu-sion of the campaign.

"Hope College is an important asset to the Holland-Zeeland area in terms of its economic, cultural, intellectual and spiritual impact on our community," said DeWitt.

Over 60 teams of business people and Hope faculty and staff called on 375 area businesses • last Thursday. DeWitt in-dicated that the campaign has received support this year from a few businesses that had never pledged before.

dependent on countries and could operate more effectively everywhere. We should probably begin by seeking an interna-tional "feed back democracy" with little direct voting. We might move to more in-ternational response to crises. We might have an international omsbudsman who would try to solve problems. We would not vote. Just go to an omsbudsman who would bring the problem to public atten-tion through television and other means and try to solve the problem peacefully. We should adjust the international organization and adjust the democracy of the organization steadily, as possible. Voting might be rare and only on great issues because country leaders might be the last to agree and turn around.

Then there might be a change to real time economics. Indexing for inflation has been proposed and already used in many countries. With indexing comes the realization that you are not getting in-come but getting a share of the Gross Na-tional Product. Real time economics would call for a flat income tax of perhaps 12 percent with an 8 percent value added tax in a much more automatic fashion.

Taxes would be taken out all of the time by use of the computer. This would enable government to spend more on the public good. This is needed because our roads, our inner cities, our schools, and our en-vironment must not be allowed to deteriorate. We have too much invested in the Infrastructure to allow it to deteriorate. The instant computer tax policy will insure that money is available to finance what is necessary, and that doesn't mean only more arms. With the

History prof chairs pane Dr. Neal W. Sobania, assistant pro-

fessor of history and the Director of the International Education Center at Hope College, recently chaired a panel and read a paper at the 25th annual meetings of the African Studies Association in Washington, D.C.

Sobania's paper, "Colonial Policy of Desertification: the Evidence from Nor-thern Kenya" used an historical ap-proach to show that during the colonial era in East Africa, a number of policy decisions Implemented by the British government began a process by which desert areas have greatly expanded. He further demonstrated the detrimental ef-fect that short-term solutions without an overall long-term policy have had on the lives of the region's peoples.

The panel which Sobania chaired was titled "Pastoralists: Environment or Development" and also included papers

presented by anthropologists and historians from Swarthmore College, UCLA and the State University of New York at Cortland. A member of the United Nations Secretariat in New York from Somalia in East Africa was the discussant for the panel.

The research in which Sobania Is engaged Is based upon two periods of ex-tensive field work in northern Kenya and southern Ethiopia. During that time he lived and traveled in these desert regions with seminomadic cattle and camel herders and served as a consultant to the United Nations education, scientific, and cultural organization research program studying the advance of dese r t s worldwide. Sobania is a 1968 graduate of Hope College and holds the Ph.D. degree from the University of London. This is his second year on the Hope faculty.

...help girls learn and grow by becoming a Girl Scout volunteer. You will be work-ing with the world's largest voluntary organization for girls ages six through seventeen. We are growing in over 90 countries around the world as well as right here in Holland.

Pianist Arlene Warners will present her Hope College senior recital Saturday, December 11, at 8 p.m. in Dlmnent Chapel.

The program will include works by Scarlatti, Beethoven, Chopin, Prokofiev, and of particular interest, a set of Seven Pieces for Piano by Hungarian composer, Zontal Kodaly.

Mrs. Warners, a student of Joan Con-way, returned to her studies to pursue a Bachelor of Music degree at Hope College after raising a family of three children.:

There are all kinds of volunteer posi-tions in Girl Scouting. You can work directly with the girls in their troops or work indirectly for girls through com-munity and resource development. No matter which you choose, it's most impor-tant to share your ideas, special talents, and time.

Volunteering with Girl Scouts helps you develop your potential, gain practical ex-perience, and sharpen leadership skills. Through Girl Scouting you will have the opportunity to participate In trainings, seminars, and even national events.

No matter how you decide to become in-volved...it's your chance to be a positive Influence In girls' lives...you'll help them to become women of today's and tomor-row's world.

Instant computer tax we won't always be thinking of taxes and what It is going to cost us. We won't have a tax time at which to sit and complain, and the public good will be served. Of course, there must be watchdogs to Insure that we are not over taxed and also we mut Insure that money is spent wisely at home and abroad, and that programs are run well. But, we have got to get away from com-plaining and refusal to spend for vital pro-grams. We are told to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and somehow we have got to do that with less complaining, less sinning, and with more efficiency and fairness.

We are going to have to change some of our beliefs if we want a sustainable global society. Our organized religions are a danger. Vietnam had a Buddhist-Catholic aspect India has had wars over the Hindu-Muslim problem. In the Middle East we have a Sunnl-Shia conflict. In Lebanon there is a Christian-Shia-Sunnl-Jewish aspect. In Cyprus there was a Greek Orthodox-Muslim contest. In Ireland there is a Catholic-Protestant conflict. Ideological rigidity, along with nationalism, mix like matches and gasoline. There has been change, but ideas like the Mormans excluding all blacks because they were the descen-dants of Ham have no place in the think-ing of a sustainable society. Excluding women from the priesthood or ministry

, will ruin the church but will not reconcile mankind to God or m a n to man. Failure of Protestants and Catholics to get along In Ireland will fuel a war and ruin coun-tries but will not prove which side is cor-rec t

We must, if we are to have a sus-tainable society, come up with a set of beliefs, which need not be far from the teachings expounded by Christ, but may override the views of some in the established church. I would say that some of the tenants are:

1. An ecological. ethic- all men and women are brothers and sisters and are to be protected in that spirit. The earth belongs to the Lord and is to be treated that way. We must side with Saint Fran-cis when he said that this is God's world and we have a biological need to care for it rather than with Saint Barnard who said we could take what we wanted from the earth and dominate it.

2.We must insure the development of human potential to the limit. We must In-sure health, growth, education, cherish the family, love our neighbors, love our work as respectable, fulfilling, and creative for society.

3. We must be tolerant of diversity and be careful that we do not destroy some

N part or show contempt for some people or nation. We are told not to judge In the Bi-ble and our role is not to consign someone who believes differently than we do to hell or to fight them.

4. We must reassess our concept of justice. Jeremy Betham and John Stewart Mill, the utilitarians, talked of the greatest good for the greatest number. We must go beyond that if we are to have a sustainable society. John Rawls has written a book entitled A Theory of Justice. Justice to Rawls is "fair play". If you have been thrown a good roll of the dice and have been born white and wealthy, you should do something for the person or nation that has gotten a bad roll of the dice. Those with the maxi give to the mini. We should help the poor nations of the Third and Fourth World.

See how far we have already come. Many states around the world give more per capita to help 99untries abroad than we do. We are number 13 in official development assistance and 5th in private D. A. (development assistance).

The U.S. affirmative action program has helped women and minorities up the ladder. In our families we do the same thing. One who needs help gets more of the family income. We pour it out to the one that is hurting, in love.

If we pursue the lifeboat ethic as in-dividuals and as natlons-I've got mine and I will not help you or that nation--we ourselves will eventually lack resources and insure that we are going down in 30 to 50 years.

5. We must act with a sense of respon-sibility. We choose the father that we serve. We can sit on our hands and say it is Inevitable that man will wipe himself off the face of the earth. Armageddon is coming! We can stand under the sign of the cross-reconciling man to man and man to God-and praying Thy Klndom come on earth as it is in heaven, or we can sit in our lifeboat and say if I give you food or let you in the lifeboat I will go down.

6. Finally we must work for a feed back, goal directed, readjustment revolutioo-the goal being a sustainable society. We must insist that our leaders look to the future for the underrepresented future generation-our children and our grand-children.

Hope(less) deficiency On any college campus, theoretically, the two most important

academic environments should be the classroom and the library. Regardless of observations by library workers that they constant-ly receive queries from juniors and seniors that know next to nothing about the library, this is probably true on the Hope Col-lege campus as well. Whether or not the library is conducive to an academic environment is a different story.

In fact, many students have been driven away from the library because of the situation that they have discovered: noisiness, overcrowding and lack of Isolated study space. This is caused by the negligence of two different parties.

First, and most notable is the portion of the student body that regularly uses the library as a social haven. Basically, we see this as a function of immaturity and some of its componants, namely lack of discipline, selfishness and lack of respect for others. Regular 'study groups' nightly sojourn religiously to the library to perform rigorous study. Unfortunately, this study includes flir-ting. catching up on the greek news, and basic social scheduling.

The obvious solution for this first problem would be for these people to grow up. Doubting the realities of this, stringent disciplinarian measures should be authorized and taken by the library staff. This, of course, will be difficult with such a per-vasive problem, but it Is certainly a necessary first step in eliminating the problem.

The students, however, are not solely to blame for this form of campus blight. The physical structure of Van Zoeren is not con-ducive to quiet study. The open stadium design allows for active participation, communication, and observation within the social scene. It was also built when Hope's student body had over 1000 fewer students and the collection was about half the size of to-day's. Thus, the jamming In effect wasn't nearly as severe.

Of course the present administration cannot be blamed for something that was the brainchild of the engineers of the late 1950's and early 1960's. However, the tremendous Inactivity that has taken place regarding the library structure relative to the rest of the campus is Inexcusable. Committees and reports are not suf-ficient. Given the importance of a library to a college education, we implore the administration to accelerate the process so that the current student body will not have to be appeased with pro-mises of a new library in five years.

In keeping with the spirit of the season all concerned should take note.

First, the social mongers should ask Santa for some nice, warm, kelly green muzzles. Second, the administration should ask the jolly round man for a stocking full of generous new donars, with all of the bucks received to be designated for a newly competative

National polls say U.S. citizens feel that nuclear stockpiling has "gone too fa r" and there is "nothing to do but wait for the end." Our children are scared, the drug culture ouilds, and the poor are starved.

The people speaking out now in

A M E R I C A : F R O M H I T L E R TO REAGAN tell the history and real story behind Washington's great hoax. This is an expose of the top men and their in-terest in developing a mounting arms race and "f irs t strike" weapons which could mean the annihilation of humanity.

AMERICA: FROM H I T L E R TO REAGAN speaks out to international au-diences with a solution and the facts form scientists in England, Germany, and the U.S. military advisers in NATO and the U.S. workers and union leadership.

A need for modesty To the Editor I would like to call attention to a pro-

blem that has been on my mind lately. Although it occurs outside the realms of our beloved campus, it is a phenomenon prevalent among the students of Hope and, as such, one that I feel called upon to point out. Call me a psychologist before a preacher; a gadfly before an angel. Or call me a jester-even the wisest of kings needed fools to keep them sane.

The problem Is (brace yourself) exhibi-tionism (gasp!). Everybody Is doing I t -especially In the way they wear their clothes. Before I go on I should warn you that I don't mean to cause a further polarization of the prep and anit-prep fac-tions, being fully conscious of the fact that even the "anti-preps" proudly display their outfits. Whatever happened to a warm shirt on a cold day?

The concept of exhibitionism need not be confined through prudery to only denote public nakedness. Even that venerated father of human (sexual) understanding, Slgmund Freud, may have had something useful to say about matters as simple as this one. A person who demands recognition on the basis of his or her exterior characteristics Is ob-viously suffer ing f rom a lack of something Interior; they want attention that they don't necessarily deserve. Perhaps It Is something spiritual that we should be working on; but on the other hand, perhaps the interior thing Is dif-ferent for each of us.

Nothing is as misguided as indentifying one ' s i n t e r i o r self wi th e x t e r i o r organizations-be they sings or pulls, fraternities or sororities, national armies or Crusaders for Chrlst-and nothing as exhibitionist as identifying with those uniforms.

It could be that no one person is exhibi-tionist in a complete way, but that we all share such feelings. What good are earr-ings? Why own six different hats? Why wear shoes without socks on a rainy day? Why spend an hour every morning shap-ing your hair when you could be sleeping In? Why worry what people think of you?

Now many of you will say that you dress the way you do In order to express yourself, but don't tell m e this; because something inside me would like to believe that you're not all Identical. Do you all feel the same things? Feelings of plaid and dock-siders without socks on Tuesdays, sweat-shirts and sneake r s^n Fridays, and page 33 of Gen t l emgfs Quarterly on Sunday mornings aren't all that stimulating. If you must t4express yourself", be original (please).

I believe that the whole phenomenon is symptomatic of the destruction being caused to us by those arch-enemies of mankind: Advertisers. How many people do you know who wear nothing but clothes with brand-names printed on them? Such messages serve no interior-benefltting purpose unless the person owns stock in each company. Fur thermore (If you'll pardon my train of thought), delicate rib-bons tied around the frilly collars of those sweet young (liberated) things serve no purpose other than to be untied (Come on ladies, the day of chllvalry Is gone!). As long as I 'm talking about messages I'd like to add one last thought: It 's difficult to read them when they are printed sideways on a sleeve.

A new thought comes to me just now, sitting In the Kletz and watching a woman strut by outside In (short) shorts. Hmm.. . the legs a re quite tanned. December is fast approaching, but ob-viously she wishes to admire herself yet a little longer. Oh well, I'd give the same advice to anyone that I'd give to a king (or queen); Pour yourself a drink (if your palace is off-campus), sit back in a com-fortable chair, and close your eyes -Whatever you do, don't look around you!

Primal Scream The final prima

by Annie Brown Oh shed a tear. The time has come to

say, "Adios, Papingas," because I'm leaving Nouveau U. and going off to Sin City to participate in the Washington Semester. Yes, Holland just isn't corrupt enough for me anymore so I'm moving on to bigger and better things. For example my first internship will involve writing the script for the sequel to "Bedtime for Bonzo." In the second six-week internship I'll be proofreading the propaganda for that non-profit organization Spam For the World.

But before I turn ^ut the last light in the Halls of Academe I will leave you with some advice. I could be oh so mundane and regurgitate age old advice that's a l ready been given by old age philosophers such as: ' i f the heat gets hot let sleeping dogs lie," but I won't.

All I'll say is be liberal artsy, or else. Milk this knowledge filled udder for everything it's worth. You see, the most important goal for a liberal arts college is to create students who can carry on in-teresting and intelligent conversations at cocktail parties.

Did you hear about the man in Hull, Iowa who drowned in his own martini? He was at a cocktail party listening to a col-lege student drone on about the national deficit, the Laffer curve, and supply-side economics. Well, the man dozed off, his nose dropped in the martini, he inhaled the olive and that was that. Obviously that boring student did not attend a liberal arts college.

The way to prevent people from dropp-ing off into dream world or into a tray of caviar and crackers is to take a wide

variety of classes that have the potential for adding much to a scintillating chit-chat. Take moi, for example, a political science major who took genetics. The reason I took that class is two-fold. First of all I want to be a Pulitzer Prize Jour-nalist and figured that since genetics is such a hot topic these days (almost as hot as disco roller skating) I should know something about it in case my boss asks me to write an article about genetic engineering or designer genes.

Secondly, I realized that I needed some other career option in case I didn't get a job as a journalist. By taking genetics I felt I would be qualified to open my own Primal Scream Genetic Counseling Center complete with posh waiting room and Muzak that played the songs "If You See A Chance Take It" and "Having Your Baby." And of course I'll know what I'm talking about when I use words like meiosis and mitosis at cocktail parties. So there's my advice.

Now I'd like to thank all the important people in my life, my uncle Vito "Brian" Giacalone for somehow coming up with all the money to pay my way through school, my parents for not using birth control, and Tim Young, feature editor of this rag, for holding a gun at my head un-til I promised that I would write this col-umn. And finally I'd like to thank all those people, especially my raucous room-mates and the virile young bucks of Parkview A-2 for literary advice, morale, and Inspiration when the proverbial creative ]uices were low. Ciao, Babies, and pass the hors d'oerves, please?!

Hope vs. Reality Aren't we lucky?

by Ben Vonk and Beth Cooper Last week Ben used a rather interesting

phrase in retort to "For Which It Stands". We live. It seems. In "one of the strongest fortresses of freedom In the world". Aren't we lucky?

I'm not so suve, for a fortress serves two purposes. The first, obviously. Is pro-tection. The second Is Isolation and by limiting external Influence we minimize Internal differentiation. Opinions vary In degree, not In substance. Our "fortress" Is quite homogeneous; overall, we are liberal, prosperous (though not as pro-sperous as Mr. Vonk may think). Chris-tian capitalists whose only Impetus to self-crltlclsm Is an extreme disruption of the status quo. Unfortunately, the very nature of our society tends to repress any po t en t i a l i t y for d i s r u p t i o n . The philosopher Herbert Marcuse comes to mind with his criticism of our "one-d i m e n s i o n a l s o c i e t y " , and one-dimensional we are. We live In a smooth, efficient, democratic "unfreedom" in which apathy has becorfffe a by-word for happiness. This macrocosmic com-placency Is seen in our social, political, and religious lives. But lest we think this phenomenon is conf ined to the macrocosm, examine the microcosm also.

Hope is a microcosm of reality; It Is continuous with it rather than in opposi-tion to it. When Hope vs. Reality was chosen as the title of this column, it was to

have been a bit sarcastic. Unfortunately, It seems to have been a bit descriptlve-at least from the Hope College perspective. We are a part of the "outside" world, but we need to be a functional part thereof.

Looking back over the subjects we've covered, one must realize that they all af-fect us, and yet the overall response has been minimal. Have we isolated ourselves in our own little fortress? It would seem so.

Hopefully, the impending vacation will allow us to get back In touch with reality : to catch up on the news and views that are shaping our lives. And hopefully, we'll re-main a little more concerned. Think about it.--B.C.

New career guide for men

The radical changes in the job market and lifestyles that have already blurred the traditional roles of men and women now confront American males with un-p r e c e d e n t e d c h a l l e n g e s — a n d opportunities-in defining career goals for the 1980s and beyond.

seven times during their working life. So says Joyce Slayton Mitchell in a

first-of-its-kind career guide for men published by the College Board. Mitchell, author of 14 educational books including a definitive career guide for women, sug-gests that the rapidly changing job market and generally discouraging employment outlook make it more impor-tant than ever for men to be aware of their options when considering initial career choices-as well as the changes they may make during their working life.

From her interviews she found that the phenomenon of multiple mini-careers is so widespread that many men still in their twenties are already in their second or third different jobs. And Mitchell cites a new phenomenon in the job market : the fact that over one-third of the working population makes a career change every year, most of them between the ages of 30 and 59, with an average age of 38.

She also suggests that we are coming into a "new age" for young men in this country, in which many men would like to integrate family responsibilities, in-cluding child care, with their ambitions and their career development in a part-nership with their wives. Her book. Choices and Changes: A Career Guide for Men, encourages men of all ages to rethink their work priorities and shows them how to integrate today's changing life values with career choices.

Choices and Changes provides up-to-date and detailed descriptions of nearly 100 careers, including growing fields like accounting, health and computer science, and is based on extensive personal inter-

For each career profile, the author provides a candid look at what the work is really like, as well as important information on education and skills need-ed, how many men are employed in the field and where they work, what the salaries and future prospects are, related career fields, and sources of further in-formation.

I Can Be Anything: A Career Book for Women is a completely new and up-to-date edition of Mitchell's definitive career guide for women first published by the College Board in 1975.

I Can Be Anything profiles the same ca ree r s discussed in Choices and Changes, but it is written specifically for and about women in the working world. The author discusses the expanding range of careers open to women today and the special problems faced by women as they pursue their career goals. A list of women's colleges in the United States is also included. Both books include prac-tical advice on going to college, choosing a major, transferable and saleable skills, the basic steps in career development, the current oversupply of college graduates, and what to do to get a job that is really interesting.

PAGE? A treatise on osmosis

1

by W. H. Rees Note: The article referred to In the follow-ing Is J im Elckhoff and Heather Decker's "Why Osmosis" In the October 21, 1982 Issue of the Hope College anchor.

A recent small college paper carried an article on education via osmosis. (Educa-tion is falsely employed as a replacement for enlightenment). The authors stated that education comes to a student by osmosis, a phenomenon by which diffu-sion occurs by passage through a semipermeable membrane. Allegedly, by placing one's derriere on a tome or if a heavy dissertation is pasted inside a linesman's helmet the participant can depart an idiot's 90 to a genius I Q. of say 165 Well, hardly.

We can hardly quarrel with the state-ment that many college students have changed their majors to B.O. (Bach, of Osmosis) or B.O.S.A. (Bach. Osmosis, Smart A-) from other more demanding disciplines. There is overwhelming evidence about us in this modern age of permissiveness to support the findings of Ms. Decker and Mr. Eickhoff. Alas! (An aside here; B.O. as a degree or as a human state is equally obnoxious to the genteel and learned).

Diffusion is possible through a semipermeable membrane; in fact, it is a fact not a theory. But. enlightenment is

impossible by osmosis through a lamebrain of which there are many in the real world AG. (After graduation). Erudition by means of a heavy theme im-planted Inside a linesman's helmet is as Impossible as a camel passing through the eye of a needle as Scripture says.

Acquisition of mental or physical skills by osmosis via the derriere is likewise a fallacious premise. Now, without excep-tion, a derriere is composed of two parts (technical name, cheeks) of equal dimen-sions. Unlike the brain, both sides per-form the same function when they act as a unit; when one side is called upon to do more than 50 percent of the work it will complain in a loud voice demanding relief. (Another aside-Corpulent people, both male and female, have much greater tolerance for windbags than do those who are slight of frame-especially in cases where folding chairs or oak church pews are employed). But, well rounded or bony, posteriors have the same osmotic valence, specifically "zilch".

Critics of B.O.S.A. alumni have found many common characteristics. First of all, S.A.s of the backside persuasion are known to be "cheeky" regardless of dimensions. Yet, and still unknown to researchers, is their ability to name the V.P. candidate in 1847, astronauts names

Hope football fares well Hope College quarterback Greg Heeres

was the nation's second most efficient g passer this past season according to Divi-^ sion III statistics released this week by X the National Collegiate Athletic Associa-W tion (NCAA). jg In addition, teammates Todd Holstege W and John VanderStarre were among the w nation's leaders in other categories and Q the Dutchmen as a team finished high in

several categories. Hope won its second straight MIAA

championship enroute to posting an 8-1 season record and being ranked 11th in the nation among Division III schools.

Heeres, a sophomore fiom Grand Rapids, set a new Hope single season passing yardage record as he completed 88 of 157 passes (56 percent) for 1,328 yards and 13 touchdowns. He was in-tercepted only six times.

He finished with a pass efficiency rating of 146.7. The rating, established by the NCAA, considers 100 to be the "average" quarterback. The national leader was Mike Bennet of Cornell Col-lege of Iowa with a rating of 158.1.

Holstege, a senior tailback from Grand Rapids (GR Christian HS) who was voted the most valuable player in the MIAA, finished as the nation's 13th leading rusher with an average of 111.5 yards per game. He g a i n ^ 892 yards in 146 carries

for a school record average of 6.1 yards per rush.

Leading the nation was Scott Reppert of Lawrence, Wisconsin, with an average of 165.4 yards per game.

Junior fullback John VanderStarre of Kentwood finished in a seven-way tie for 19th place in scoring with 12 touchdowns. Rick Bell of St. John's, Minn., led the na-tion with 21 touchdowns.

Hope was ranked in both scoring of-fense and defense. The Dutchmen were

12th in offense with 32.3 points per game and 11th in defense, allowing just 8.7 points per outing. West Georgia led the nation in both categories averaging 42.1 points per game while allowing just 4.6.

The Dutchmen were ninth in total of-fense (400.6 yards per game) and 26th in rushing offense (214.2 yards per game). Hope set a new MIAA total offense record this fall. West Georgia led the country in total offense (470.6 yards per game) and rushing (319.6 yards per game).

ALL ABOU BOO

For most collGge freshmen, the end a the Fall Semester Is the first experience they wil l have v ^ h book buy-back at the bookstore. Many students come from high schools where books were either loaned free or rented for a small fee and they have become accustomed to retur-ning all of their books at the end of each semester. This is not the case in college, where books are purchased outright by the student, and resale values are determined by a variety of market condi-tions, (for the uninit iated this can sometimes be a rude realization).

What follows are some of the typical questions we get every year about book buy-back with some answers that we hope wil l increase your understanding of how the system works. WHAT is book buy-BACK? Book buy-back (as opposed to book refunds) is an op-portunity for students to recover some of the money they have spent for course books which they do not wish to keep in their personal libraries. Book buy-back Is held during the last two weeks of each semester and at that time books are pur-chased by the bookstore for the fol lowing semester. This process recycles books from those wishing to sell to those who wishing to buy and

allows the bookstore to offer used books as wel l as new ones. HOW DOES BOOK BUY-BACK

. WORK? There are t w o possibilities for selling books at the Bookstore. The first in-volves books being used at Hope in the next semester (For these we must have a WRITTEN order from the pro-fessor). These books are bought at 60% of the pur-chase price for hardcovers and 50% for paperbacks. The quantities are sometimes limited by projected class enrollments and the number of books the bookstore already has on hand.

The second option for sell-ing is through the Follett Us-ed Book Co. The bookstore is an agent for Follett and is authorized to pay the prices quoted In their Blue Book'. These prices average about 25% of the current retail price but can vary widely depending on the demand for that tit le. Some books bring $8 or $10 while others are listed at as low as 25c and 50c. In general we do not en-courage students to sell books through Follett unless it appears, that the books have litt le chance of being us-

WHY WON'T THE BOOKSTORE BUY ALL MY BOOKS? The most frequent answer to this question is that the book has gone into a new edition. Most

popular college texts are up-dated every 3 to 5 years, resulting in new editions. These new editions usually come Into immediate use, rendering the old editions ob-solete. Old editions are rare-ly purchased by either the Bookstore or the Follett Used Book Co. There are also some books discontinued ay Hope which have no national resale value and therefore are not even listed In the Follett buying

,guide. (These books tend to be SMALL PAPERBACKS OR RELIGIOUS TITLES). PLEASE REMEMBER there is never a guarantee that textbooks purchased by students wi l l ever be used again by any in-structor anywhere in the country.Students should not buy books with the expecta-tion of reselling every one-that happens in very few cases.

Sports Men's basketball accumulates two big wins

The Hope men's basketball team showed conclusively last week what a relatively easy schedule can do for a team early In the season as they trounced two outclassed opponants. The first vic-tory was a 93-66 mercy killing of Goshen, and the second was a 91-68 victory over Concordia, 111.

The first victory against Goshen (0-5 after the defeat) was never really a con-test as Hope jumped off to an 18-5 lead on the strength of five straight baskets by junior guard Todd Schuillng. The margin didn't decrease any as the Flying Dut-chmen held the half time advantage 48-33.

The wide margin allowed coach Glenn Van Wleren to give each of his players ex-tensive action as the entire team got in the scorebook. Sophomore forward Chip Henry led Hope with 16 points while Schuillng and sophomore Dan Gustad each recorded 14. Sophomore guard Jeff Dills was also In double figures with 10 points. Henry also led the Flying Dut-chmen In rebounds with 12.

The defeat of Concordia (1-6 after the contest) didn't prove to be quite as easy from the beginning as the teams were tied at a very low 6-6 with almost five minutes gone In the contest.

Van Wleren then decided to switch to a man-to-man defense and Hope scored 11 unanswered points over the next four

minutes of the contest. The defense wasn't the only factor In the lead as Hope shot 78 percent In the half from the floor to pull away to a 46-24 at the intermission.

Again, the Hope bench proved itself to be a noteworthy entity as It was given ex-tensive play In the second half only to In-crease the lead over the Cougers to the final margin of victory.

Sophomore guard Dave Beckman led the Flying Dutchmen with a career high 16 points while Schuillng and junior Jeff Heerdt added 14 and 13 respectively. Henry chipped In with 10 points and a team high eight rebounds. Heerdt added seven rebounds.

The two games have raised the record of Hope to 3-2 on the season. Besides that, the five games have allowed Van Wleren to give his young bench experience as all 12 players have played in at least three games and nine of them have played In all five.

For the season Henry leads the team in both scoring and rebounding with averages of 17.2 and 8.4 respectively. Heerdt Is second in both with averages of 13.6 and 7.0. Schuillng Is third on the team In scoring with an average of 13.0 points per game. He also leads the team In assists with 22 for the season. For his ef-forts last week Schuillng became the first MIAA player of the week in this young

The 1500-yard relay team of Tim Dykema, Terry Berens and Jay Little provided the best finish of the day for Hope as they captured second place.

I Wrestlers do well in tourney g W a

by Rainjy Warren The Hope wrestling team did very well

in their own tournament last Saturday when they placed eight men into the finals. The ^Dutchmen came away with three first place winners: Keith DeVries at 167 pounds, Glen Blumer at 177 pounds, and Blaine Newhouse at 190 pounds. Hope completely dominated the 167 pound weight class, with team captain Jeff Machlela and Keith DeVries destroying all of their opponents until only the two of them were left. Jeff had pinned his first two victims in only 1:37 and 2:29 proving to all that he deserved his first seed rating. Keith DeVries, Hope's other 167 pound wrestler, also decked both of his challengers in times of 1:55 and 3:37. In the final, where these two powerhouses met, it was DeVries who triumphed, this time in a very close 1-0 battle.

Blumer had no trouble with his 177 pound opponents. He won 3-0 to get himself into the finals and then stopped his challenger by pinning him in only 3:54. Blaine Newhouse surprised many people by totally dominating the 190 pound weight class. Newhouse pinned both of the men that he faced in only 3:03 and won the championship with a decisive

pin in 3:5f. Newhouse so impressed the other coaches that they voted him the Most Valuable Wrestler for the day.

Paul Holtrop was the Dutchmen's only third place finisher. At heavyweight, Holtrop pinned two wrestlers in 2:47 and 2:55. This set Holtrop up for his 10-4 win for the third place medal.

Four men took fourth places for Hope: Doug Lehman at 118 pounds, Will Walker at 134 pounds, Tom Hicks at 150 pounds and Mike Sturm at 177 pounds. Walker won a match by criteria after fighting to a 2-2 tie. Hicks had a tough day, winning three matches but only coming away with a fourth place finish. Hicks won two mat-ches by pin, 3:16 and 3:23, and one by descision, 8-1. Sturm won a match by placing his opponent's shoulders to the mat in 2:38.

Kevin McCollough also won a match 12-0 before suffering an injury to his shoulder.

Hope took third over-all finishing Just behind a tough Southwestern Michigan team. The super-tough Alma squad finished first. The team's next action will be at Muskegon for their tournament.

Women's basketball looks tough by Steve Underwood Hope women's basketball coach MarJ

Snyder feels the 1982-83 edition of the team has "more potential" than any team she has coached here. And after compiling a 3-1 record at the GLCA tour-nament at Depauw College (Ind.) last weekend, who can argue with her?

The Dutchwomen enter this campaign with defense as their main strength. Through pressure defense, executed with quickness, Hope hopes to hold the opposi-tion under 60 points per game. Through 4 games, they've given up 57.8 a game.

Last season, Hope surrendered 62.2 points per game in compiling a 10-14 record (4-8 in MIAA).

Offensively, the Dutch will try to utilize quickness and strong rebounding to run an effective fast break. Balanced scoring is expected to be another asset.

Snyder looks for leadership from Co-Captains Robin Pfelffer (Jr.,Grand Haven)and Annette Groenink (sr., Zeeland). Pfelffer led the team in scoring last season with 11.4 points per game, and set a Hope season record for field goals with 61. She also ranked 2nd In the MIAA in assists. .

Hope returns four other players from last year^ all of whom should give the team strength inside. Mary Schaap leads those returnees. The Junior from Holland set a new single season field goal percen-tage record, hitting at a .519 clip, which also ranked 2nd In the MIAA. Schaap also led the team In rebounds, with the fifth best total in the league, and is the second highest returning scorer.

The other three returnees are Lynn Beelen (Jr., Holland), Taml Japenga (so., Grand Haven), and Sue Nell (so., Hastings).

The Dutchwomen varsity Is graced with four freshmen, who all look ready to make immediate contributions to the team: Karen Glngras (Lansing), Beth Beachum (Lowell), Karen Brower (Zeeland), and Annette VanEngen (Mat-tawan).

In Friday's opening round of play, the Dutch started off with a 51-48 win over Denison (Ohio) College. Pfelffer scored 19 points, 14 in the second hall to rally the

Dutch from a 10-polnt deficit. Pheiffer scored the tying points, and Groenink the winners.

Glngras added 12 points and 9 rebounds for Hope, which trailed, 20-18 at the Inter-mission. Beachum had 8 points and 7 re-bounds, while Brower snared 8 of the lat-ter.

Later in the day, Hope was dropped to the losers' bracket aftar a 72-53 loss to Wooster, last year 's tourney champs. Ac-cording to Snyder, it was the club's tur-novers (31) and lack of defensive re-bounds that hurt the most. The Dutch fell behind, 34-18 at the half and never got closer than about 15 In the 2nd half. Pfelf-fer and Glngras led the scoring and re-bounding with 13 and 8 respectively.

Hope won Its first outing Saturday over Oberlln, 68-45. Pfelffer led 4 players in double figures (with 14 points). Including Schaap who notched 10 points and 8 boards. Brower added 11 rebounds. The Dutch only committed 3 turnovers In the second half as they outscored Oberlln, 37-17. .. . '

Then the Dutch closed out the tourney with a 69-66 win over host Depauw. Glngras broke a tie late in the game with a free throw, then had a missed freebie tipped in by Beelin to give the Dutch a 3-point lead. Pfleffer had 20 points and Glngras scored 13 with 10 rebounds. The Dutch offset a 46-23 deficit on the boards with 45 percent shooting, their best of the weekend.

Synder was pleased with 1) the team's poise under pressure, 2) bench strength, and 3) the play of her frosh.

The Dutchwomen host North Park (111.) tonight at 7 p.m. at the Dow Center. They'll travel to Grand Valley State on Saturday for a contest, their last before the holiday break. The next Dutch action will be In a pair of MIAA games on the road followed by the Calvin game on Tuesday, January 18.

, Looking ahead, Snyder sees Alma as the team to beat In the MIAA, with Al-bion, Calvin, and Adrian following. But she warns that the young Dutch, too, will have a say in things.
