NANCY DICKERSON India Program Vistors Describe Lawrence As Straighter, Friendlier than Home Schools If the impressions of Carleton, Grinnell, and Beloit students who have spent their last term in Appleton preparing for the ACM India Studies Program (a program, incidentally, which may be canceled because of international tension) are ac curate, there are noticeable differences among the colleges of the conference. Lawrentians are straighter, more friendly, more structured in their social lives, the visitors feel, and the education they receive is less hased on classroom discussion, than in the sister colleges of the Midwest Conference. All the students interviewed warned, of course, that their contacts with the university have been from a very unusual angle, and not representative in many respects of what might be ex perienced by a full-time student. Socially, noted Starr Strong, who has attended Beloit off and on in the past, Lawrence, appears to support an attitude of more structured relationships, in cluding stronger fraternities and sororities, than her home school. She felt that there was more pressure here to be “straight,” whereas at Beloit the pressure was to "be freaky, wear funny clothes.” Similar opinions were voiced by Grinnellian Laura Snook, who noticed several things at Lawrence which were alien to her past experience. “I hadn’t seen a girl in a skirt for, like 150 years!” Both girls commented on the unfamiliar campus type of “leather faced sun goddesses dressed to the hilt and wearing make-up.” They noted, however, that boys seemed to like the change. They were also somewhat amazed at the amount of formal dating that takes place. “They’re still at the stage where the guys ask the girls,” said Starr. Still another difference noted by Laura was that Lawrentians seem to go to church more often. However, Laura felt that because of the "straightness” of the I^awrence community, it was noticeably more friendly. Both Starr and Deb Westcott of Carleton felt the same way. Deb mentioned that just walking across campus she felt a frien dlier attitude. The composition of the student body in terms of georgraphical background, was noticeably different, the girls felt. To them Lawrence appeared to be more midwest-centered, with fewer students from the East and the far West. The Appleton environment is similar to Beloit’s, but quite different from that of Carleton and Grinnell, both of which are situated in extremely small towns. This means that key cards were foreign devices to Laura and Deb, but not to Starr. At Beloit there have been problems with locals infiltrating the dorms. However, as far as en tertainment goes, G r i n n e l l ’s Moine West said. Appleton offers little more than the small towns of Iowa. One aspect of en tertainment at Lawrence found universally shocking was the entrance charge for university functions. This was judged anywhere from disappointing to outrageous. At the other schools, films are free (and more frequent) and so are most other campus events. They are financed from the s c h o o l ’s comprehensive fee. Another difference between the smalltown and large-town schools, although not necessarily as a result of the town size, was the amount of political activism. At Grinnell, for example, war protests over the past year have been both better attended and more prolonged than those here. However, at Beloit, Starr reported an experience, similar to that of many at Lawrence, of frustration after the enthusiasm of the late 60’s. Perhaps the only issue on which the visiting students were greatly divided was the food service. Laura and Starr both liked the atmosphere in Downer’s small rooms much better than the large “cowpens" at Grinnell and Beloit, where the two lines tended to represent consciously different social groups. At many of the other schools the food service is run by an outside company, SAGA, which, it was felt, provides less versatile and varied courses. “All the food here is better except for anything to do with steak,” one said. Vegetarians, on the other hand (of whom there are several in the India group) were greatly dissatisfied with the Lawrence service. According to John Owens, Carleton allows veg etarians to cook their own meals without charge, and Starr reported that this practice was used at Beloit, too, as well as a special vegetarian line, although the latter was not as successful. At Lawrence the vegetarians have had to subsist on simply the non-meat protions of the regular meals. Progress on minority problems has progressed farther at Grinnell and Carleton, than at Lawrence the students felt, but they remarked upon another difference which may seem somewhat surprising. At Lawrence, blacks were much more friendly and less self- isolating. In other schools, the local equivalent of the Association of African Amer icans applies considerable social pressure on its members to avoid making contact with whites. As far as hiring faculty, however, the other schools have made more progress: they have black faculty, administrators, and one black chaplain. The position ot chaplain, in cidentally, which no longer exists at Lawrence, was rated useful at Beloit by Starr, but not too helpful at Grinnell by Laura. Chaplains provide informal counseling and “organize peace rallies.” The visitors’ views of Lawrence academics were sometimes surprising. On one hand, they felt there was less student participation in classes (although whether this was the result of student lassitude or faculty rigidity it would be hard to say), and on the other they felt that classes at Lawrence were not as difficult in some respects. John Owens said that Lawrence was a place of “Information rather than inquiry,” and was somewhat unhappy with the classroom situation he had ex perienced. Deb felt that Lawrence students were perhaps less academically oriented that those at Carleton, but the other girls doubted that their impressions on such a subject would be very valid. Deb felt that her course in Modernization from Professor Hah was not as difficult as she had been told by Lawrentians to expect. A more difficult course, she felt, would be one in which there was more demand on individuals to take part in analytical discussion. This was echoed by Starr, who said, “We hardly ever get into a discussion where we really think and get to use our minds.” The Lawrence library was disappointing to Laura, who estimated that G r i n n e l l ’s was more than twice as large. In general, how happy are ACM The Lawrence University Athletic Department recently announced the winners of a series of awards given to those athletes who excelled both on and off the athletic field. Each year the athletic department presents awards to the senior man who excelled in the classroom as well as the athletic field throughout his Lawrence career. The award is known as the Iden Charles Champion Cup and this year’s winner is senior John Stroemer. Another award presented by the department annually is the Charles A. Pond Sports Award. This award goes to the senior who has demonstrated the greatest all-around athletic ability in two students with their schools? At Grinnell, Laura said, students seemed fairly satisfied; there was little of the transfer-itis which afflicts many Lawrence freshmen. Instead, she said, “Everybody drops out after a few years.” Carleton students seem relatively happy in their northern nook, according to Deb, but at Beloit, Starr said, many have an attitude of “I’ll come here and give it a chance, but I bet I won’t stay.” There is some question at this time as to whether this particular attempt to get away from mid west America will be successful The ACM India program has yet to be approved by the Indian government, which is using pressure on American school groups in retaliation for U.S. policy toward Pakistan and Bangla Desh. Several programs from other institutions have already been canceled. The g r o u p ’s departure, or iginally scheduled for late June, will now take place in July if the program is accepted The students will live with families in Poona, India, for six months. or more sports while combining this atheltic prowess with ex cellence in academics.

that classes at Lawrence were not as difficult in some respects. John Owens said that Lawrence was a place of “ Information ra ther than inquiry,” and was so m ew h a t u n hap py w ith th e classroom situation he had ex­perienced.

Deb felt th a t L a w re n c e s tu d e n ts w ere p e rh a p s less academically oriented that those at Carleton. but the other girls doubted that their impressions on such a subject would be very valid Deb felt that her course in Modernization from Professor Hah was not as difficult as she had been told by Lawrentians to expect.

A more difficult course, she felt, would be one in which there was m ore demand on individuals to ta k e p a r t in a n a ly t ic a l discussion. This was echoed by Starr, who said. “ We hardly ever get into a discussion where we really think and get to use our minds.”

The Lawrence library was d is ap p o in t in g to L a u ra , who estimated that Grinnell’s was more than twice as large.

In general, how happy a re ACM

The L a w re n c e U n iv e rs i ty A th le t ic D e p a r tm e n t r e c e n t ly announced the winners of a series of aw ards given to those athletes who excelled both on and off the athletic field.

E a c h y e a r th e a th le t i c departm ent presents aw ards to the senior man who excelled in the classroom as well as the a th le t i c field th ro u g h o u t his Lawrence career . The aw ard is known a s th e Iden C h a r le s Champion Cup and this y e a r ’s winner is senior John Stroemer.

Another aw ard presented by the department annually is the Charles A Pond Sports Award. This aw ard goes to the senior who has demonstrated the greatest all-around athletic ability in two

students with their schools? At Grinnell, Laura said, students seemed fairly satisfied; there was little of the transfer-it is which afflicts many Lawrence f r e s h m e n . In s te a d , she s a id , “ Everybody drops out after a few ye a rs .” Carleton students seem relatively happy in their northern nook, according to Deb, but at Beloit, S ta r r said, many have an attitude of “ I ’ll come here and give it a chance, but I bet I won’t s tay .”

There is some question at this time as to whether this particular a ttempt to get away from m id­west America will be successful. The ACM India program has yet to be approved by the Indian g o v e rn m e n t , w hich is using pressure on American school groups in retaliation for U.S. policy to w a rd P a k i s ta n and Bangla Desh Several p rogram s from o th e r in s t i tu t io n s h av e already been canceled.

The group’s departure , o r ­ig ina lly s c h e d u le d for la te June, will now take place in July if the program is accepted. The students will live with families in Poona, India, for six months.

Help Me Become An Optimist

New Editors!The Lawrentian is happy to see that new editors have now

been appointed for all three heretofore orphaned publications: Ariel, Tropos, and In the Shade. The newly named editors have all d isplayed an enthusiasm that it is refreshing to see.

Barb Carney has been nam ed Ariel editor for the next y e a r ; she brings with her a wealth of training in yearbook production that has not been available here for m any years, having transferred this year from a large school where the subject w as taught

Mob Kckley, Tom Ehlinger, and Jay Lam brecht are next y ea r’s T ro p o s editors, and they prom ise som e innovations. Recognizing that publicity is a m ajor problem, they are going to try to put out two issues rather than just one next year, and m ake m ore effort to solicit subm issions.

(.jail Thompson, whose collection of poem s just cam e out this week, is the editor of what she hopes will be a greatly changed In th e S h a d e . She hopes to print the work of som e Lawrentian literatus perhaps as often as once a month, and furtherm ore plans to start a literary c irc le in which the public can m eet the authors and critical d iscussions of their work can be held Both of these appear to be excellen t ideas.

Several w eeks ago, when budgets w ere subm itted, LUCC allowed a greatly reduced amount for the “creative” publications (a label w e som ew hat r e se n t) because there were no editors Now that the positions have been filled, and all three show considerable prom ise, we urge LUCC to be generous in supporting them financially.

To the Editor

A Senior Reflectsby WALTER NORTH

It is spring and the university assumes that I will graduate. Tney have assessed me ten dollars for an exit permit and even sent me a pair of tickets for the commencement ceremony. Commencement - not an end but a beginning. Commencemenl - an admission that what has been has not been a beginning but an abortion.

Given the last chance at a swipe at an institution which I alternately admire and defile I can ’t resist the urge to be blunt. This university needs to be

ravaged. Only an unwanted birth can save her If taken by surprise something fine might be born here. But the chastity belt of elitist a rrogance and egocen- tricity must be violated if we are to see life.

I^awrence is, has been, and continues to be a mediocre in­stitution She has been used by am b i t io u s a d m i n i s t r a t o r s and ibused by disinterested trustees ind an all-too self interested facu lty .

An amazingly pleasingly large group of over forty students actually showed up for an “ex ­p o su re t a l k ” May 29th in Riverview Lounge and what is even more shocking was that the group was largely white. I say “amazingly pleasing" because it was a genuinely nice thing to see that many Lawrentians could actually put their books, frisbees and beers aside long enough to learn about the American rape of Africa At the conclusion of the talk most of the students gave their names and money to sup­port a telegram to the Senate en d o rs in g the M cG ee am - m en d m e n t to r e a f f i r m and reimpose the U.S. commitment to ob se rv e the U N .

masochistic roles. When the sun shines and spring returns our senses need to be rejuvenated, not repressed.

A liberal art curriculum which fails to develop sensibilities in its students is obsolete. Goethe, to whom we owe our motto - “ light, more light,” could never see it again because he was losing his sight as he died. This university which looks to the future and parrots about quality education must find the light or we too will vanish. Our sleep of reason has p ro du ced a m o n s te r . In an amoral age it behooves us all to recover moral sensibilities. As nature is threatened we must cherish and preserve our senses of joy. An education which ex ­tinguishes ra the r than ignites indicts us all It is time to research our human resources and stop exploiting them No student should leave Lawrence feeling c h e a te d We canno t continue as a cog in a modern Coketown

I resist commenting on specific aspects of the curriculum here because our real problem is not the results of policies but of a t ­t i tudes . L ibe ra l polic ies will inevitably be frustrated if the administration of them stays in old hands We need a change in the men not the management. The problem with my approach is that those who agree will read this and fill in between the lines from their own experiences The rest of you will continue to talk in your sleep until you a re shocked into awareness Bv then it will be too late For many it already is.

Security Council embargo pact and finances and supports the colonial domination of Portugal over Angola and Mozambique and the white minority oligarchy over the Kaffirs of South Africa.

As Congressman Charles Diggs said to us. the hope of the African L i b e r a t i o n D e m o n s t r a t i o n organizers was that each of the 10.000 of us would return to our homes arm ed with facts and en e rg y to s t im u la t e s e v e r a l hundreds of Americans to help stop the gross injustice of the U .S. I thank the forty students who showed up at Riverview for helping me live up to the re sp o n s ib i l i ty C o n g re s s m a n Diggs transmitted to us, and hope that more of you will join our effort.

Response Favorable To Continuous Food Service

Student mem bers of the food service committee released the r e su l ts today of the LUCC referenda concerning the free exchange of diners between the two dining rooms and the con­tinuous food service plan which has been in effect since March of this year. Students expressed their opinion on the referenda during the recent LUCC election.

An overwhelming majority of the 435 students who returned the questionnaire expressed a desire to maintain the continuous food service free exchange program. Eight students, four of whom were seniors, disapproved of the program.

The most popular aspect of the new service, according to those voting on the referenda, was the fact that cafeteria lines are open longer. Over 60 per cent of those responding said they took a d ­vantage of being able to eat at either the Colman dining room or the D owner d in ing roo m ; however, continuous service was cited as being more desirable than the free exchange plan. A total of 359 students said they actually used the continuous service, while 304 said that they have actually used the free ex­change.

The closing of Colman on

w eek end s w as c i ted as the primary disadvantage of the new service by 280 of the respondents, with 184 of the students citing the carrying of meal cards as being bothersome.

A majority of those students who were Conservatory students and-or juniors were irrita ted equally by carry ing meal cards and the closing of Colman on w eekends . Those who w ere sc ien ce hall m a j o r s a n d -o r sophomores felt that carry ing meal cards was the g rea te r nuisance. F reshm en and-or those who a r e m a jo r in g in the humanities believed that the closing of Colman on weekends was objectionable.

Seventy-six of those responding indicated that the quality of the food had improved under the new arrangements .

Mrs. Lilian B. Chapin, acting director of university food s e r ­vices, said that she found the survey to be both encouraging and enlightening. “ The results of the s u rv e y d ispe l som e misconceptions and also indicate a general acceptance of the new service. We hope that by working through the student food services committee, we can continue to improve and provide the kind of service our students w an t .”

Then I shall discuss it with you, but not in groups of five and ten.The solutions to the problems of a castrated world are not for them.Impotent people play violent gamesblood sports on green fields and hard wood floors Mastication. Mastication Mastication, Mastication It sounds amazingly like Masturbation

Don’t ask any questions,I have my own suggestions

I am no chick pea.Nor was meant to be.

The weight of years have burdened me with more that my twenty-one years should show.But no more but moreI’ll drink coffee at ten, two and four.And you will say how I have betrayed you.How I have destroyed your nation.While on a two week paid vacation.In a bucolic rage.

But how strong could our union have been if my whim were its defense.How long could Alfred P acker live with only rocky mountain oysters for nourishment.

Grateful Nation Celebrates Lawrence Sesquicentennial

Lawrentians from around the world cam e to Appleton this week to help celebrate their a lm a m a te r ’s 150th anniversary, in a week of gala events capped by an unve il ing of s t a tu e s of the U n iv e r s i ty ’s m os t fam ous presidents. The ceremonies were directed by current president John Nissen, and linked by molecular transporter to similar g a th e r in g s in N eenah and Kaukauna.

The s t a tu e s of fo rm e r p re s id e n ts P u sey , W riston , Knight, and Smith a re made by the Walt Disney corporation of skin-like plastic material and can be directed to move about by remote control. "I think this is an e x t r e m e ly re le v a n t d i s p la y ,” said President Nissen in pressing the button which caused the group to unveil themselves. The event was enlivened by what was at first taken to be an extra statue fallen on its side, but was discovered to be an overin­toxicated alum who had fallen asleep under the tarpaulin.

The statues are all voiceless except for that of Pusey, which says “ Light, more Light!” and that of Smith, which utters his famous dictum “ Let me go where men reason ,’’ spoken when he left Lawrence in 1978 to take charge of the Wisconsin penal system.

It's About Time

Also unveiled was a panorama of Lawrence history, depicting all the exciting events of the school’s 150 years ; stretching a full five feet, it covers an ugly crack in the Brokaw study lounge.

After the unveiling of the statues, the festivities moved to the site of the old tennis courts, where an unusual art display was presented made entirely of tennis balls dredged out of Green Bay. The statues included one of a Lawrence athlete serving, one of a Lawrence athlete returning a shot, and one of a Lawrence a th l e te leap in g the net to congratulate his opponent.

At th e conc lud ing d in n e r meeting that evening, the guest of honor was Appleton mayor Joseph McCarthy Houdini, who said that “ Us Appleton people a re real proud to have a fine in­stitution such as Lawrence in our city, most of the t im e,” before d e l iv e r in g an a d d re s s which ended with the qu ip “ The greatest escape I ever made was from Appleton, which is the home of Joe McCarthy.” The crowd burst into appreciative applause at the deft combination of cliches.

His speech was to be followed by a discourse by President N issen on “ What the S e s ­quicentennial Means,” but it was cut short when the president

Shor Announces Beer to Be Sold in the Librarybv CORNELIUS WARMERDAM

In a long anticipated move, Viking Room m anager Toots Shor announced that beer will now be sold in the Memorial Library.

“ At long last,” Shor said with a grin, “We'll be able to drink in the social center of the campus. Now, those three or four students who actually use the library for studying should not feel like t h e y ’re being pushed out. Seminar Room number 101 will be used for that purpose.”

When reminded that there a re two sem inar rooms in the library, Shor said that 102 will be used for storage. “ We’ll have to put the beer someplace,” Shor said.

However, Shor also warned that fraternities and sororities will no longer be able to hold their a c t iv e m ee t in g s in the old reading room “They got away with it before, but not anym ore ,” Shor said. “ Meetings will be allowed on the back steps only if they ask nicely, and only if everyone drinks at least five rounds.”

Shor also reported that all first and second floor carre ls will be removed to make room for pinball machines. “We could probably put pool tables in both the main floor and downstairs lobbies,” he added.

When asked what was to be done with the third floor carrels, Shor sounded surprised. “They’ll stay there, of course. If we let them sit for a couple more years, we can get good prices for them from an antique dealer "

In other developments. Head L ib ra r ia n Ju l ie E isen h o w er reported a new shipment of

books. “This will increase our present amount of volumes to nearly 250,” Mrs. Eisenhower said. “ My Daddy always e m ­phasized the importance of an informed public,” she continued. “ He always wanted to make that very c lea r .”

Downer Center Hears Complaint

Housing Tents in

by JO E SZCZESNIAKIEWICZ

Once again, housing appears to p re se n t a p ro b lem to the university, as another school year approaches. Dean Richard Daley announced Friday that only ju n io rs who h av e run errands for the President in the past three weeks a re assured of a room next year.

“ We ju s t h a te to le av e everybody up in the a i r ,” Dean Daley said, “ but when you leave room for 900 f r e sh m e n , someone's going to be out of luck.”

In order to facili tate those students not housed in dorms, the University is for the first time allowing apartm en ts to be rented south of Fond du Lac. “T here’s room out there somewhere.” Dean Daley said. “ If by chance you don’t have a car, take some tutorials.”

Emergency housing is also being prepared for next year. The fraternity house quotas will be temporarily raised to 52. This will mean that in addition to the ten beds put in each attic last year, there will be three doubles in each of the boiler rooms.

Dean Daley didn’t think that such a move would d isadvantage those students living in this situation. “ Of course, we’ll be d is t r ib u t in g one sho tg un p e r double to take care of the rats. If you should feel something nib­bling on your toes when you’re in bed, just let him have it ,” the dean chuckled “That is, unless your room mate knows yoga and gets carr ied away after biting his toenails.

“ We’ve used the s am e policy in Brokaw for the last ten years , and it’s worked just fine,” the dean assured “ Funny, though, it’s resulted in increased ex ­penditures for wall repa irs .”

When asked who in the world would want to live in such a situation. Dean Daley said that surprisingly enough, he had been deluged with applications. Were th e re an y d is t in g u ish in g

PR E SID E N T NISSEN

Panic On Again; Quad9 Anyone?

c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s about those students who had applied? “Well, yes,” the dean replied. "Nearly all of those applicants have had ra ther long names ending in s k i I just c a n ’t explain it.”

In o th e r housing m oves , students will be forced to move in with faculty members. “ We’ve decided to do it by m a jo rs ,” Dean Daley said “ It will be the u l t im a te tes t of the honor pledge.”

With these moves, Dean Daley said that all students should be situated in their rooms by the

seventh week of second term. “This is going to take a little t i m e ,” the d ean w a rn e d . “There’s lots of paper work in­volved in this m a t te r .”

Several students a re a lready making plans to house them ­selves next fall The most popular plan is pitching tents in the quad One student said he was looking forward to the adventure. "Gee, I just c a n ’t wait to wake up to the delightful fragrance of the paper mills,” he said. “ But I think I ’ll run into some problems when I t ry to use my e le c t r ic typewriter .”

Rrokaw’s Renovation Rescheduled ... Again

Director Emeritus of Living Quarters for Interested Students, Arel H a in ze , p ro c la im e d at a sp ec ia l news c o n fe ren ce yesterday that the renovation of Brokaw Hall has been tentatively rescheduled for the 1998 school year, pending extensive repairs on Kohler and Trever Halls.

When questioned about the p r a c t ic a l i ty of sa lv a g in g the oldest building crumbling in the midwest, Hainze replied that the hall’s resistance to complete deterioration thus far is worth at l eas t a foo tno te in R ip le y ’s Believe It Or Not.

In addition, the school profits from the periodic mass visitation of the E a g e r A rch i te c ts of A m erica’s tour groups who just last week contributed to the local color by creating Appleton’s only .147 death automobile fatality as they a ttem pted to take pictures of the ruins from the street below during the tri weekly practice of the c i t y ’s a m b u la n c e dri l l squads

Hainze assured the skeptical that the wooden braces sup porting the lower floors would be t r e a t e d with an ti t e r m i te

preparations as a precaution against last y e a r ’s tragedy when an e n t i r e f r e s h m a n sec t ion succombed to them after the wood ran out.

The skyline will still be graced with four 7 ton steel cranes a t ­tempting to keep the upper floors in tem porary suspension. Just as an a d d ed p re c a u t io n , a rrangem ents have been made so that no one with asthm a will be allowed to room in the hall next year.

For those wondering about the urgent nature of the repairs to be made at Kohler and Trever, Hainze stated that each cell needs additional padding and that the external facades have not been sandblasted for fifteen years.

Hainze rem arked in conclusion that Brokaw, if renovated, could stand for another century if curiosity seekers would stop the annoying habit of appropriating specimens of the rubble still supporting the rem ainder of the building as souvenirs of their visit to the sole surviving r e m ­nant of the prelivable type of dormitory.

by BUNGALOW BILL What was most significant

about the 1996-97 sports year at L a w re n c e w as the e x t r e m e disappointment suffered by the baseball team. After tying St. Olaf for N o r th e rn Divis ion honors, the Vikes were not voted into the playoffs, despite the fact that Lawrence defeated St. Olaf in their only meeting, 17-3.

Somehow, St. Olaf talked Ripon and Carleton into voting for it. The St. Olaf coach rationalized the situation this way: “ Well, Lawrence was halfway to North- field a couple of weeks ago, when they were informed that there probably wouldn’t be a game, because there was a foot of snow on the ground. So what did they do? They had the audacity to turn around and drive back, without even putting foot on our soil. I mean, for P e te ’s sake, when you just take someone’s word for it, th a t’s going a little too fa r .”

The Oles’ mentor also had harsh words for what he called “ underhanded tac t ics” when his team played Lawrence at the la t te r ’s home field. “ We were going to pitch our best hurler

The age old scandal of im ­moderate sunbathing has again reared its ugly head. Various a s s o r te d s tu d e n ts h av e been caught taking obscene pride in (he depth, extent, and degree that they can temporarily discolor the pigmentation of their epidermis.

Dr. I no I tall of the school’s H ealth an d W e lfa re C en te r cautions that over-exposure to the sun’s intensive rays can cause irremediable dam age to a student’s cumulative grade point.

To repeat words of wisdom from the far distant past, the following excerpt from the May 2, 1952 issue of the Lawrentian is usurped: ‘‘How far one goes with sunbathing or necking is his own business. Either way the burn is his own.”

In this modern age of 1997, the technological advances in the art of sunbathing exceed acceptable moral and aesthetic s tandards. Now. for only $99.99, one can p u rc h a s e the U -R o ta te body rotisserie which turns the user 360 d e g re e s in a ho r izo n ta l position every hour on the hour while basting him in U-Burn Oil ( a v a i la b le in O live, P e a c h , Cream, Chocolate, and others for every complexion and ethnic group).

1998-1999 school year have been announced. They include a new one term program for two space science majors in the ACM or lilting lab The program will give three credits in advanced s ta r plotting and one in in terstellar observation.

All of last yea rs ' program s will be in operation, except for the Pollution Study Center at the bottom of the Fox River. Once again the program is held up by technical difficulties. Director Morton Schwartz, J r . said, "The dome has been eaten to an unsafe thinness by the river water, which will make it impossible for anyone weighing over 78 pounds to be down there .”

against Lawrence, but he got sick on those hot dogs they sell at the park. They knew he liked hotdogs!”

The St. Olaf coach didn’t seem too worried about the effects this would have on the conference, however. “ Heck, i t ’s only the 28th time in a row that w e’ve won this thing; the conference should balance out pretty soon.”

Probably L awrence’s bit terest defeat in all sports cam e at the hands of Monmouth last fall, when the Vikes were nipped at the wire, 64-0. A number of outside factors were suggested as contributing to the defeat, but head coach and athletic director Ronald Roberts, J r . , denied that these had anything to do with the loss.

“ No, I doubt if the fact that we were outweighed by fifty pounds per man had anything to do with our perform ance,” Roberts said. When a sk e d why M onm outh seems to have such big players every year, the Viking mentor replied, “T h a t’s simple. When you give full scholarships to 75 football players per year, you’re gonna get a few biggies.”

It was pointed out, however.

revelations which have been frequent now that mid-January and -1-4 degree tem peratures a re upon us once again.

This admonition has been of­fe red to s t a v e off f u tu re epidemics of sunbathing mania such as the one that occured in 1973 when the most deeply tanned girls from Kohler, Sage, and Colman were found boiled in their own baby oil as their competitors were not content with chaining them to the periodical stacks in the l ib ra ry ’s basement.

Lawrence University has come a long way since its humble beginning in Main Hall 150 years ago now it extends all the way across College Avenue. And the 1997 Anniversary Celebrations have illustrated this, as well as other marked improvements and innovations in L.U.’s continuing crawl forward This y e a r ’s 150th A n n iv e r s a ry C e leb ra t io n , in addition to merely demonstrating L awrence’s ever-so deep roots in the p a s t , h as a lso shown L a w r e n c e ’s con ce rn for the future. So here a re some of the revolutionary changes due to come in 1998 at the “ Carleton of Wisconsin,” for the sake of progressive education, of course:

The Freshm an (’ore P rogram will be re-evaluated, probably spelling doom for F reshm an Studies, which is more than most f reshmen can spell after taking the course.

Professors will embark upon a new method of teaching, e m ­phasizing discussion and student initiative instead of lecture kind of like sw itch ing b ra n d s of sleeping pills when what you really need is a laxative.

The Admissions Office has p ro m ise d to ad m i t m o re minority-group students as a result of the recent takeover of the I^awe Street mailbox; earl ier mail pickups have also been guaranteed

The faculty will once again reassess comprehensives before they a re continued again next year; students have assured the faculty that they will conduct another unsuccessful l>oycott ofIII*' tests

T he a d m in is t r a t io n is op

that no other school in the con­ference gave out scholarships. “ Yeah, 1 know,” Roberts sighed. “ But for some places, being gung-ho on sports is all th a t ’s important to a school. But th a t ’s all right, just so long as the myth that there is a constant balance of power in the league continues to be believed.”

S w itch ing to o th e r top ics , R o b e r ts ann ou n ced tha t the athletic budget took a cut for next year; sports will now have $53.28 to spend. “T h a t’s not as bad as it s o u n d s ,” R o b e r ts sa id op ­timistically. “ We can still have m ilk an d cookies a f t e r the Homecoming game, and I can get bubble gum at cut-rate prices to chew on road tr ips .”

Roberts can still find nothing b a s ic a l ly w rong with the uniforms which the varsity team s have been wearing the last 25 years. “ After you get rid of all the moths, they’re really not so bad. The numbers may be a little faded, but that will make the fans look a little h a rd e r .”

D u ring the c o n v e rs a t io n , b a sk e tb a l l coach A.A. T y re brought an optimistic note into an otherwise disappointing season. “ At least a new attendance record was set in basketball ,” Tyre said gleefully. “ Why, just listening to all 83 of those people scream their heads off made chills run up my sp ine!”

Tyre looked forward to next, year with optimism as well. “ 1 think we'll have as many as eight or ten people coming out. Just think of the things we could do; we could hold a fu l lcourt sc r im m ag e !”

Roberts ended the interview with a firm statement on where the athletic department stood: “exactly where everybody wants us to be. After all, w e’re per­forming our required role in a liberal institution, aren 't w e?”

timistic that the City Council will close off College Avenue next year to turn Lawrence into a pedestrian cam pus—the Deans a re confident that the Fox River can be paved to handle the traffic.

Brokaw Hall is slated to be torn down soon to make room for the new ro l le r de rb y r in k ; the Housing C o m m it te e ’s s u b ­committee on Renovation and Delay says that this will not c a u se any inconv en ience in housing because Sage Hall should be opened in the fall now that r e n o v a t io n s h av e been c o m ­pleted.

L a w r e n c e ’s S o c i o l o g y D e p a r tm e n t will beco m e a reality next yea r—if professors a r e ap p o in ted to s ta f f the department.

Professor William Chaney will soon leave Lawrence to become chairman of the history depart­ment at the “ Lawrence of the E ast .”

The fraternity houses will be used as language houses next yea r—this is, as soon as the fraternities fold, now that only one third of the campus is Greek.

The President has assured parents that tuition costs will not rise again next year; however, laundry charges have been in­creased to $842. This move should complete the university’s 25 year plan to get the college out of the red. parents out of the green, and students into the white.

Finally, it seems certain that these long awaited submissions to progressive education will m ak e The L aw ren tian very popular next year—it won’t be published. . .

On [Note ofLUCC this week acted to ban

e le c tro n ic n o is em ak e rs from bicycles, and then moved to abolish itself.

The d e b a te on b icycle noisemakers was rather lively a n d h ea te d . The issue was ultimately resolved in favor of the large number of students who had complained that peace and quiet was being violated. A substitute motion which would have banned the use of baseball c a rd s as n o is em ak e rs w as defeated 10 to 6.

In the afternoon’s only other action, LUCC moved to abolish itself. Council president Lyndon Johnson said. “ I campaigned on the promise that LUCC does still have a function, and now that I’m convinced otherwise, I don’t see any rea so n to con tinue it. Besides, I ’ve got a lab report due in two weeks, and I just won’t have any t im e.”

Reaction to the proposal was mixed; several members spoke out in favor of continuing LUCC. Dean of Illicit Affairs Cotton Mather said, “We all know that you didn't expect to live up to that campaign promise, and we won’t hold you to it.”

Later, in an unusual burst of c a n d o r , he sa id th a t such promises “ Are just Lawrence traditions, and like the rest of our t r ad i t io n s , they don 't m ean anything.”

Also defending LUCC was Dean of Nocturnal Emissions Max von Ribbentrop, who said that “ I find

these meetings very in teresting.” Ted Gurr, representing the

Brokaw-Colman district, said “ I think i t ’s about time we abolished it. The last time we ever passed anything was in 1975, and I b e l iev e i n t e r e s t is declin ing . After all, I won my seat by a vote of 3 to 1.”

LUCC Pres ident Johnson said, “ I know just what you mean. As you all know, I am now in office only because ballots for “Tom Sm ith’’ w eren’t counted. And he isn’t even connected with the University any any m ore .”

Dean Mather then moved that the proposal to be tabled, but he was ruled out of order, under the special LUCC provision that any m e m b er’s speech which takes less than three minutes and appears to come to a point will be disregarded.

Razzle Dazzleyew IV, rep­re s e n t a t i v e of the c o h a b ­itation quad, s ta ted that the entire question should be decided through a battle of fisticuffs since the rules of the Marquis de Queensburough predate those of Robert’s Rules of order. He suggested that the winner of this confrontation would decide the fate of the LUCC and be given the coveted Don DuMont God and Country award.

This motion was carr ied by a vote of 2 to 7. One member p o in ted out th a t it was nearing 6:15 and his tum my was grumbling. The meeting was immediately adjourned.

Subconscious Conditioning Causes "Illness’ of Racism

by (iAIL A. THOMPSONAs an Afro-Japanese woman at

Lawrence, I have been extremely aw are of raeism in subtle and in blatant forms, and that racism which I have encountered is not only directed against Blacks, but all non-whites. In repeated in­stances, on both an institutional and an ind iv idua l level, Lawrentian students, faculty and a d m i n i s t r a t o r s h a v e c le a r ly demonstrated attitudes of white su p r e m a c y and a snobb ish disdain for that which is not Occidental.

A Mental IllnessRacism is not just wearing a

KKK sheet, burning crosses, bombing Negro churches, carting Japanese off to relocation camps, cheering for George Wallace, or moving out to the suburbs to get away from the colored people. Racism is a kind of mental illness which severely distrots one’s

perception of reality Racism is a complex range of beliefs and superstitions which affect one’s judgements and dictate one’s actions and reactions.

Like most mental illnesses, racism is manifested in varying degrees, but it’s latent presence is as significantly detrimental as its more overt and conspicuous forms. As in the case of other mental illnesses, the presence of r a c i s m a f fec ts the s e c u r i ty , t r an q u i l i ty and em o tion a l stability of the patient and all those with whom he interacts. All m en ta l i l ln esses deve lop gradually and are the products of numerous experiences and im ­pressions on both a conscious and subliminal plane, and racism is no exception Just as one cannot say to himself, “Today I will cease to have claustrophobia” and thereby cure himself im ­mediately, today’s most vocal

liberal is still fundamentally racist.

Racist ConditioningDismissing the metaphor, the

conditioning of racism into the minds and hearts of everyone is a long process which goes on throughout one’s life everyday. E ven in se em ing ly innocent sayings like “Get your clothes really white, all the way to b r ight” , “Try not to look on the dark side of things” , The Black sheep of the family” , and yes, even the awe-inspiring aspiring motto of this institution, “Light, more ligh t!” I challenge you to show me one person who can honestly say that his mind is e n t i re ly void of s te re o ty p e s , p re ju d ic e s , b ia s e s and fe a r s about non-whites

1 am non-white, but I know that my mind has been twisted like a p re tze l into p re ju d ic e s and s t e r e o ty p e s about non-w hites because I was “educated” by white teachers who (sometimes unconsciously and sometimes not so unconsciously) filled my head with Kipling’s doctrine of the White M an’s Burden I wasted many hours in front of a television looking at the Frito Bandito, Tonto (the obsequious, monosyllabic comrade of the hero who wore white clothes and rode a white horse) Rochester (the dumb darkie servant) Julia (thesweet girl treated so warmly by her paternalistic boss) and

Chinese actors filling in scenes in the so -ca l led J a p a n e s e w a r movies. (It is no wonder that most white Americans cannot d is t in g u ish J a p a n e s e from Chinese or Koreans.)

Bananas and OreosI find the lack of awareness of

the Oriental student who made his naive comm ent in Riverview and the m em bers of the OOOS upsetting. The OOOS letter which appeared in the April 7th issue of the Lawrentian is demonstrative of an acquired distaste for con­frontation of the issue of racism and a desire to slip into the quiet security of assimilation Un­fortunately. the Oriental co m ­munity has an element of banana thinking (yellow on the outside, white on the inside) just as one occasionally encounters the Afro- American oreo cookie (black exterior, white interior).

Both of these phenomena a re manifestations of the racism in our society and indicate an un­natural sham e of ethnic culture and heritage. There is indeed, racism against Orientals on this campus. I have heard students refer to Professor Hah as “ the little Nip” , though the Profes­sor is Korean, not Japanese. Lawrence is a university which prides itself on the fact that it offers courses in a ra re dialect of Russian, Georgian, but for some reason Lawrence does not offer courses in Japanese or even the

most common dialects of Chinese languages. Although the Orient co n ta in s the w o r ld ’s oldes civilizations, there a re only a few courses offered which even begin to consider Asian culture and history.

Just because White students a re not blatantly hostile to one’s face is no indication that one is u nd e rs to o d or a c c e p te d for oneself. To be accepted on white terms, in white standards is to be denied one’s individual identity.

Purgation of LiesRacism is my enemy, not only

because it causes disunity among Black people (creating hang ups about being “ too light” or “ too d a rk ” ), not only because it m a k e s A s i a n - A m e r i c a n s ashamed of a beautiful heritage and culture, not only because it denies me opportunities to basic individual liberties and rights, but because it denies me an identity as a human being. Much of Black ideology today is based on an effort to purge me of all those lies planted in my head by this racist society. Thank God someone has finally spilled the truth that Naomi Simms doesn't have to try to look like Raquel, because Naomi is devastatingly beautiful just the way nature made her.

No, I ’m not going to come sit next to a w h ite s tu d e n t , so she can go back to her room and write her parents about “my colored fr iend” (like My Friend Flicka) and for that she will think I am a racist. Well, sh e ’s right. I won’t sit next to her because there is racism, but don’t just point your finger at me, B aby !

RelevancyTo the Lawrentian:

L e t’s talk about relevancy . . . Is it found in “culminating

e x p e r i e n c e s ” ca l led d e p a r t ­mental exam s which end up being a coitus interruptus for 35 per cent of the history depa r t­m en t a n d c o u n t le ss o th e r seniors?

Is it in n u m e ro u s honors projects which failed because the class of ’72 is the worst class in the history of Lawrence?

Is it in a proposed college catalogue which analyzes the comedy values of many of the professors, ignores the academic achievements of many others, and describes the P aris seminar as a chance for students to learn for themselves the meaning of words like le pain?

Is it in a cam pus legislative body which is largely powerless now that open-dorms a re a reality?

Is it in a picnic for a ‘‘small circle of fr iends” on the Trever lawn at which Cat Stevens, Peter, Paul, and Mary, and Laura Nyro a re played three times each and one of L aw rence’s administrative adolescents is heard as saying, “ Hey John, where a re the m a r sh ­mallows” ?

Nope—there is no relevancy here or anywhere. What am I and a lot of other m em bers of the class of ’72 going to be doing when we gradua te? Be a janitor, truck driver, or grounds keeper, in short, something they could have done right out of high school

Neckl More NecklEditor, Lawrentian:

A thought on the “ Education” issue of the Lawrentian: “Of the myriad species that inhabit the earth , m an is unique in the complexity of his institutions and the extent of his m astery of the in a n im a te a nd a n im a te e n ­vironments. Anthropologists and other social scientists agree that this is due to a uniquely human mode of a d a p ta t io n , the culturals. Man has grown taller than the giraffe and tunneled more deeply in the earth than the mole, not by evolving a longer neck or a more efficient snout, either of which would probably take him many thousands of y e a r s , but th ro ug h an a c ­cumulation of knowledge and skills.” (J. H. Greenberg, An­thropological Linguistics, 1968)

I would like to offer my con­

tribution to the move tow’ard more student-designed courses. In order that the university ex­pand its horizons and offer more alternative “world views,” I sug g es t a s e m in a r in Neck Stretching and Snout Watering. Of course this may take a government grant or a tuition hike to sustain itself for the first hundred years or so . . .

Grad Visits SaigonTo the Editor:

With th e now u n d e b a ta b le conclusion that the sophistry of “ Vietnamization” means nothing but continued and escalated war with massive American p a r­ticipation, we should also realize what “Vietnamization” means internally within the society of souther Vietnam.

Last sum m er I was one of seven s tu d e n t r e p r e s e n ta t iv e s who t r a v e le d to Saigon re p r e s e n t in g the four m a jo r national student organizations and the International Student Movement for the United Nations (ISMUN) which has affiliates in 41 co u n t r ie s th ro u g h o u t the world. The prime reason for our tr ip was to renew the contract m ade the year before by the N ationa l S tuden t A ssocia tion with the s tu d e n t le a d e r s of V ie tn am a nd to a s s e s s the po li t ica l cond it ions in the country.

Over 100,000 political prisoners a re in Thieu’s jails and at least 2,000 students activists a re in unknown prisons. The Saigon police a re everywhere. Meetings of more than three persons are forbidden. In fact, the very first day we met with Vietnamese students two of them were beaten by the police and told not to meet with Americans while at the sam e time our scheduled meeting place was barricaded. By the time we left Saigon, all the Universities at which we met had been closed by the Saigon police and our student friends were either in prison or in hiding.

Yet the spirit and the will of the Vietnamese people and their determination to free themselves from US domination and the puppet g o v e rn m e n t of Thie r e m a in s an d even grow s stronger. Constantly the students gave us their message to bring back to the students in America— they seek only peace and their own independence, and surely if we would only tell this to Americans the w ar would be brought to an end.
