Board fails to find president by Gerald Swieringa

"Unless the unexpec ted hap-pens, Hope College will not have a president in S e p t e m b e r , " stated President of the Board of Trus tees Hugh DePree following the board ' s May 7 meeting.

THE PRESIDENTIAL Search C o m m i t t e e was unable to present the board with the ant ic ipated five or six names which the board desired. According to board mem-ber Dr. Bernard Brunsting, several names were submi t t ed , and one " s tood head and shoulders above the res t . " The board decided, however, to con t inue its investiga-tion rather than accept this r ecommenda t ion , Brunst ing ac-knowledged.

Dr. Paul Fried, chairman of the history d e p a r t m e n t and PSC fac-ulty representat ive, stated that the commi t t ee ' s investigation would cont inue th roughout the summer and into the fall term. He added that Mrs. Norman Vincent Peale, chairman of the PSC, may step down f rom that posi t ion because of responsibilities elsewhere.

THE COMMITTEE is planning to meet today to out l ine fu r the r investigation procedures .

In o the r action the board discussed possibilities of bolster-

ing the college's p lacement capa-bilities. Dr. Willard Wickers, Secre-tary of the board , observed that the job p lacement probabil i t ies for graduat ing senior are ext remely low.

TO ASSIST the 1971 graduat-ing class in f inding jobs , the board plans to con tac t business men and Hope alumni. In addi t ion , the board investigated the possibility of hiring a p lacement off icer to handle this responsibil i ty in the fu tu re . Wickers s ta ted. The board author ized the executive council to s tudy the machinery of such a plan.

Presently, the responsibili ty of job p lacement is concent ra ted in the individual depa r tmen t s of the college. Wickers s ta ted. Brunst ing added that this year ' s p lacement squeeze is most acute in the educat ion d e p a r t m e n t .

"OUT OF approximate ly 150 s tudents graduat ing with teacher ' s cert if icates, 10 have so far been placed in pos i t ions ," Brunst ing said.

The budget of the college was also presented to the board , and a prel iminary approval was granted with the s t ipula t ion that a $50 ,000 reduct ion be made. College Trea-surer and Business Manager Clar-

ence Handlogten said he had no idea of what would be cut to satisfy the board ' s demands .

WICKERS STATED tha t the reduct ion was necessary in order to present a balanced budget to the government and banks in loan bargaining conf ron ta t ions . "A bal-anced budget impresses the gov-ernment and banks , so the board decided to take a little ou t of the budget and set it up as a cont ingency f u n d , " Wickers said.

T h e board also studied the possibilities of match ing the Kresge Grant of $500 ,000 before the Sep tember deadline. Wickers stated that board members and Michigan classis churches were being solicitied to meet the grant. Current ly , the college needs approximate ly $250 ,000 to match the grant .

Finally, the board elected one new member and re-elected t w o others to two-year terms on the board.

by Bob Roos The Campus Life Board com-

pleted action on the revision of guest policies at its meet ing May 5.

THE FINAL result was a slight liberalization of the policy in terms of the number of hours during which guests will be permi t ted , and a new procedure for de termining the part icular schedule in each living uni t . Barring a faculty or Board of Trustees veto, the revised policy will take ef fec t in the fall.

The new procedure for set t ing schedules in individual units was passed by the CLB at its April 30 meeting. It s t ipulates that , at the beginning of the fall semester , each uni t will decide by vote on a schedule that fits within the limits of the present policy. Called "p lan A," this schedule will remain in effect for a min imum of four weeks. Each unit will then vote on a new p o l i c y - "p lan B " - t h e max imum limits of which were determined by the CLB at the May 5 meeting.

UNDER PLAN B, units will be allowed a m a x i m u m weekend schedule of 1 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Friday and Saturday and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday . During the week, all men 's units will be allowed guest hours for two even ings -p robab ly Monday and W e d n e s d a y - a n d all w o m e n ' s units will have hours on the evenings when the men ' s uni t s are closed. The opening and closing times will be 7 p.m. and 11 p .m.

The decision on the precise regulations under plan B was reached a f te r extensive debate on certain points left undecided by the CLB's ad hoc c o m m i t t e e for guest policy revision. Particular controversy was aroused by the quest ion whether doors should be " a j a r " or " u n l o c k e d " while guests are being en ter ta ined , and the problem of the opening t imes for weekday hours.

THE BOARD finally voted that doors must remain " a j a r , " and the 7 p.m. s tar t ing t ime on weekdays was retained following the defea t of a mo t ion that it be replaced by 1 p.m.

Opinion on b o t h of these quest ions was polarized be tween

the s tudent board members on one hand and the facul ty and administrat ion members on the other. The s tudents ' posi t ion was weakened by the absence of three of the six s tudent CLB members .

ASSOCIATE DEAN of Stu-dents Michael Gerrie, w h o at tend-ed the meeting as a guest , opened the debate over the " a j a r " ques-tion by contending that a door which remains ajar acts as an " inhibi tant for the behavior no-body wants to talk a b o u t - d r u g s , alcohol and p romiscu i ty . " He said also that a rule permi t t ing doors to be "closed, but no t locked" would in effect be unenforceable , because it would necessitate the RA checking each d o o r by hand.

S tudents Blake Prichard and Ron Sanford , who authored the original proposal to revise guest policy, answered Gerr ie 's argu-ments. Sanford maintained that " the degree of inhibi t ion (of indiscreet behavior) doesn ' t change much be tween having doors " a j a r " and "closed but not locked ."

REPLYING to the charge that a "closed but not l o c k e d " rule would be unenforceable , Prichard said, "If the evidence warrants a check on a room, the RA can use a key, whether the door is unlocked or n o t . " He went on to say that an " a j a r " rule would cause noise problems that would be avoided by a policy allowing doors to be closed.

The debate eventually came to center on the quest ion of how far the college should assume respons-ibility for s tudents ' social and moral growth. There emerged a consensus that the college is accountable t o at least some extent . Referr ing to a rule that would allow doors t o remain closed, CLB Chairman David Marker said, "We're not being responsible by just ignoring things." The vote endorsing the " a j a r " rule fol lowed.

THE BOARD passed the ad hoc commi t t ee ' s r ecommenda t ion that for the final exam periods, semester break amd Thanksgiving vacation, "each unit will vote one week before these begin to deter-mine the specific plans to be fo l lowed ' "

" T h e t radi t ional semester , the calendar system . . . with the in-famous ' January rump session, ' is experiencing rapid dec l ine . "

THUS READS a report dis-t r ibuted to all facul ty members by Jon Huisken, registrar of the college, regarding nat ional t rends in calendar revision and statistics on the 4-1-4 academic calendar .

For the past eight months , the Administrat ive Affairs Board has been considering a proposal to replace the present t radi t ional two-semester calendar with the 4-1-4.

HUISKEN'S summary of na-tional trends in calendar revision reports that prior to the 1970-71 academic year, 1753 ins t i tu t ions in the U. S. employed the tradit ional semester system, but by the fall of 1971 there will be only 602, a decline of 1151 in one academic year.

Most of these inst i tut ions , Huisken notes, have adopted one of three academic calendars: the "early semes te r" system in which the first semester ends before Christmas, the quar te r system or the 4-1-4. Presently 232 colleges employ the 4-1-4 and an addi-tional 195 schools are considering its adop t ion , Huisken reveals.

IN ITS ATTEMPT t o reach a conclusion on the 4-1-4 calendar reform proposal , the AdAB has held a hearing, considered the responses of the various academic depar tments to the proposal and polled the facul ty . At its meet ing last Monday the board decided to poll the s tudents by dis t r ibut ing quest ionnaires in the s o p h o m o r e world l i terature classes.

Dr. Cot te r Thar in , chai rman of the geology d e p a r t m e n t , s ta ted,

"We now have some idea of what the facul ty thinks. I would love to know what the s tudents t h i n k . "

PRIMARILY, the AdAB is concerned with s tudent response to what it considers the only three feasible opt ions for an academic calendar at Hope: the present system, the 4-1-4 and the "early semes te r" system with the first semester ending be fo re Christmas.

Dean for Academic Affairs Morret te Rider voiced object ions to the quar te r system because of the extra cost involved in any program over t w o semesters. "The re is also ano the r built-in oppo r tun i t y for s tudents to with-draw f rom the college," Rider noted. The 4-1-4 involves the min imum addi t ional cost of any of the proposals, he added.

DR. DAVID Myers, associate professor of psychology, pre-sented to the AdAB the results of a ques t ionnai re dis t r ibuted to the facul ty regarding the proposed academic calendar re form. The most significant facul ty responses, Myers indicated, dealt with an overall reaction to several alterna-tive academic calendar systems.

Of 92 responses, only eight reacted positively to the present calendar system, while 61 reacted either negatively or very nega-tively, Myers repor ted . F i f t y - fou r reacted positively to the proposed 4-1-4. Sixty-one reacted positively to the "early semes te r " plan.

RESPONSES TO ano ther ques-tion regarding preference be tween the 4-1-4 and the "ear ly semes te r " system showed tha t 38 facul ty members preferred the 4-1-4, while 46 prefer red the "early semes te r" plan and eight were unsure.

Bob Scott , president of the Student Congress, expressed what he felt to be general s tudent opinion that "everyone wants to get done before Chris tmas." Tharin suppor ted Scot t ' s state-ment . "We must get the first semester over before Christmas. I think this is foremost in every-one 's mind , " he said.

THE BOARD then discussed the possibility of employing an early semester system with the first semester ending just before Christmas. Classes would begin the first of September , dismiss in mid-May and Chris tmas vacation would be ex tended a week in January .

Several members voiced their approval of this plan. Scott commented that most s tudents would rather get ou t earlier in the spring than they do now. He also suggested that such a system could be a "ha l fway s t e p " toward implementa t ion of the 4-1-4.

HUISKEN STATES in his report on nat ional trends in calendar reform, "Whether we adopt the early semester or the 4-1-4 at Hope, we certainly will not jeopardize the possibility of s tudents t ransferr ing to us in Feb rua ry . " While only two schools in Michigan employ the 4-1-4, all bu t 16 have a calendar o ther than the t radi t ional semes-ter. Any of the o ther systems will mesh with ei ther the 4-1-4 or the early semester, Huisken says.

Rider said the main object ions to the early semester system would probably be the early start ing date and the absence of any vacation break other than Thanksgiving during the first semester.

Last look How to look One seldom lives his life as a logical

progression of cause and effect relation-ships. One does not build his Babel, tier upon tier, stone upon stone, w i thout making radical engineering accomodations, wi thout casting out many useful bricks for others sculpted less f inely.

Neither do the blocks of one's exper-ience f i t so precisely that it is possible to praise the ediface wi thout condemning the foundation. In Theodore Roethke's words, life is a "sequence, sometimes metaphysi-cal," more often incongruous.

Stil l, the assessment must be made, the levels applied, the plumb lines dropped. It is the faculty of education that it serves both as the cornerstone of the structure and provides the tools whereby the structure is judged. It is in this way that I should like to examine four years of the Hope College educational experience: first, as to its value in and of itself, and second, as to its value as a crit ic concerned wi th the edifaces of the day.

As an experience in and of itself, the most cogent value of education as it is administered by Hope College lies in the access it offers to a variety of disciplines. Challenge, at Hope, is defined broadly; its terms spanning the confines of interest, ability and persuasion. The student has no recourse but to confront not only the acceptable, but the objectionable. He is made aware early that the only distinguish-ing faculty he possesses is that of critical judgment, and that that faculty, if he is to satisfactorily proceed through his chosen course of study, must be refined in a smelt so remotely associative that the transfer of the skills acquired in one subject to those demanded of another is, at best, negligible. Usefulness has never been the boast of liberal education, but I know of no other form of education so well adapted to the sharpening of one's critical objectivity.

I cannot so acknowledge the value of liberal education at Hope College wi thout voicing what I f ind to be the most

imposing threat to it. That being, a complacent tolerance of the unacceptable in the name of "acceptance." I see this tolerance exposed in a rising number of courses where " feel ing" has replaced intellectual inquiry. I see it exposed in the uncriticized rise of campus crime, and I fear to see it exposed in a lessening of the college's academic standards. To remain objectively critical in its disciplines, a college must remain objectively critical of its fetishes. I see Hope being charmed into complacency.

A strong liberal arts t radi t ion invariably lends its owner a guise distinctive, but not altogether unique. Uniqueness demands a further dimension, and this dimension is offered by the Christian tradit ion which Hope maintains. When one speaks of a Christian tradit ion, one speaks of a moral tradit ion, a tradit ion which answers the demands of judgment beyond i tse l f -of fer-ing a scale, a rule whereby all other judgements are ul t imately judged.

In maintaining its Christian tradit ion, Hope maintains the only justif iably moral tradit ion accepted by the Western world. In that l imited sphere, it is a constant, a universal whose value is as striking in its severity as it is in its rewards. By participating in that tradit ion, Hope participates in the judgments made at Calvary, at Nuremburg, in Vietnam and indeed everywhere that the morals of Western culture have been employed to

justify the actions of Western culture. Christianity at Hope is not so much in

danger of secularization as it is of becoming a narrow, personalized identi ty bracelet. Its scope is being minimized, its dimensions and functions as a moral standard are being lost behind the facade of a "personal commitment to Jesus."

There is something very threatening in this joyous embrace of Aquarius' latest deity, something that diminishes the profound magnitude of human suffering, something that denies even the possibility that Christ could weep. Christianity is no longer a demanding moral standard, it is become a prerequisite to f r ivo l i ty .

It seems to me then, that the college fs

approaching a period of academic and moral cr is is- and education being what it i s - the threat is poised before both the institution and the individual wi th in it. Traditions are not sacred, but I would regret to see them destroyed by perf idy.

Gerald Swieringa

The academic year that is now coming to an end has been a disappointing one in many ways to anyone concerned for the future of Hope College. It has not been so because evils have befallen the school, but rather largely because expectations for progress have not been ful f i l led. This failure to achieve what seemed realistic goals can not be blamed on any one section of the college communi ty ; it is the result of a nearly campus-wide absence of determin-ed drive to reach the goals foreseen at the beginning of the year.

Foremost, of course, is the failure of the presidential search committee to f ind a new president for Hope College after nearly one ful l year of searching. From all outside appearances, this search has been distinguished only by footdragging and quite carefully guarded secrecy, the latter perhaps intended to not expose the former.

Secondly, has been the failure to achieve any meaningful curr iculum reform. The slight reduction in the total number of required hours and the liberalization of the foreign language requirement are a step in the right direction, but nonetheless seem of l i t t le import in the light of the major redesign of the curriculum requirements proposed by the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and his cohorts on the ad hoc curr iculum revision committee. Presently the more significant sections of this proposal are grounded in the Academic Affairs Board, wi th what some faculty members consider objectionable sections holding up passage of the best. These would provide students w i th greater freedom and yet maintain the college's high academic standards.

Thi rd ly , the much needed calendar reform may yet suffer a fate similar to that of the curr iculum revision proposal. The proposed 4 -14 still stands some chance of approval this year, though disagreement over the wor th of the one-month interim might delay calendar reform for another year.

Besides the disappointment accruing from the failure to achieve any of the above, the campus communi ty has witnes-sed a growing disillusionment wi th the efficacy and power of the so-called policy-making boards as the administra-t ion, wielding the power of the purse, has proven that it can effectively circumscribe them.

The chief cause of this disil lusionment was a poorly wr i t ten proposal for the restructuring of committees dealing w i th extra-curricular activities. This proposal is in itself another manifestation of the slip-shod handling of many policy propos-

als this year. The cause of all this inefficiency and

carelessness is not easy to pinpoint. It has been said that it resides in many faculty members' feeling that wi th the recent changes in chapel regulations and housing rules it is now time to see where Hope College is before attempting further chang-es. It has also been attr ibuted to the lack of a president providing strong leadership. And it has been explained by saying that the faculty are less wi l l ing to accept changes which strike home; that is, changes in the curr iculum.

But these seem only partially satisfac-tory. There seems to be a general avoidance on campus of putt ing one's nose to the grindstone; it is as if the introspective, hedonistic, love-everybody philosophy of the Pine Grove frisbee flippers has infected much of the faculty and administration producing widespread disinterest in things corporate, including Hope College.

Already the apathy of students has been seen in the election of student body officers and board memberships, when less than one-third of the student body voted. The conservative leaning of both the students running for off ice and those elected reveal that what could be called the radical-liberals have already opted out of the system. The fates of the curr iculum revision show that the conservative faculty are doing more homework than their

liberal colleagues. For Hope College to work well, and for

it to grow, not as a physical plant, but as a communi ty of scholars, it wi l l take much hard work w i th in the corporate structure; neither students nor faculty can choose to opt out and not pay in terms of the qual i ty of their college.

WASPs In the mess by Ar t Buchwald ^

There was so much publici ty a t t ached to the a n n o u n c e m e n t last week when the U.S. Navy p r o m o t e d its first black of f ice r to rear admiral that little a t t en t ion was paid t o ano the r b reak th rough in rigid Navy t rad i t ion . With no little pride the Navy announced that it had appo in ted its first whi te Anglo-Saxon Protes tant waiter to serve in a U.S. Navy of f icers ' mess.

The lucky seaman was J o h n Paul Jones VII of Akron , Ohio.

UP UNTIL SEAMAN Jones ' appo in t -men t as mess boy , only Fil ipino and black sailors were permi t ted to serve naval off icers . But a f t e r a secret Defense Depar tment race relat ions repor t , it was decided that if the Navy was going to have black admirals it would have to have whi te mess boys to even things ou t .

Al though the U.S. Army, Air Force and Marine Corps all use WASP mess a t t end-ants , the Navy, according to the repor t , had been dragging its feet . The Navy kept saying that it couldn ' t find any qual i f ied WASP seamen to wait on of f ice rs ' tables but the report found that mess b o y s in the Navy were not being selected according to qual i f icat ions , but according to race.

"THERE ARE MANY whi te sailors w h o are as good at serving off icers as blacks and Fi l ip inos ," the report s ta ted. " T h e y have just not been given the o p p o r t u n i t y to prove it. It is our op in ion that if the U.S. Navy hopes to recruit more members of the Anglo-Saxon race, it had be t t e r open up its ki tchen and pantr ies to Caucasian servicemen."

S tung by the repor t , the Navy denied tha t John Paul J o n e s VII had been appoin ted to serve in an of f ice rs ' mess because he was white .

"JONES," A NAVY spokesman said, " w a s selected because he was the most qual i f ied waiter we could f i n d . "

The public in fo rma t ion of f ice r was ques t ioned about the fact tha t Jones ' a p p o i n t m e n t came only one week a f te r the

Defense D e p a r t m e n t repor t was leaked to the press.

"I ' l l a d m i t , " he said, " i t sounds like a coincidence, but the U.S. Navy, and you are going t o have to t ake my word for this, has been looking for qual i f ied WASP mess boys for the last 192 years.

"I WOULD LIKE TO add, gent lemen, that J o h n Paul Jones VII will not be the last WASP mess b o y to make it in the Navy. It is our policy to see that our off icers ' galleys are s t a f f ed by the best men available, regardless of race, creed or co lo r . "

The publ ic i n fo rma t ion off icer then in t roduced Seaman Jones to the press. Jones read a s t a t e m e n t : "I am very proud to be the first one of my race to be selected by the U.S. Navy to serve in an off icers ' mess. For many years WASP seamen were only allowed to work in gunnery, engines, aviat ion, navigation and radar. We were not permi t ted to work in the pan t ry . I believe this policy, which has now been changed, will benef i t not only my b ro the r WASPs, bu t the U.S. Navy as well ."

Seaman Jones was asked if he expected to find any hosti l i ty a m o n g the o ther mess boys.

"PERHAPS AT FIRST but I 'm going t o prove that WASPs can do anything Filipinos can. I feel I represent every white Anglo-Saxon Pro tes tan t whose dream it has been for 192 years to serve in Navy off icers ' messes on land as well as on sea. This is a golden o p p o r t u n i t y , and I plan to make the most of i t . "

Af te r the press con fe rence Seaman John Paul Jones VII was t aken to the White House, where President Nixon presented him with a whi te mess jacket and an a luminum t ray . Witnessing the scene was Jones ' f a the r , a ret i red U.S. Navy admiral, who at t he end of the c e r e m o n y broke into tears.

Tango: a humorous, horrifying glimpse at life Editor's Note: This week's aA7c/7or review is wr i t ten by critiques editor Kay Hubbard. She reviews

Vthe theatre department produc-t ion of Tango, playing this week Wednesday through Saturday in the Li t t le Theatre. (Admission:

$1.50)

"If you 'd lived in those days, you 'd know how much we've done for you. You have no idea what the world was like then . Can you imagine how much courage it took to dance the tango? Do you realize that in those days there were hardly any fallen w o m e n ? That the only recognized s tyle of painting was natural ism? T h a t the theater was u t te r ly bourgeois? Stifling. Insuf fe rab le . . . "

" D O N T YOU see that you 've deprived me of every last chance to revolt? You've been n o n c o n -formists so long that there aren ' t any convent ions left t o rebel against. You've left no th ing for me... nothing! Your only no rm is the absence of all norms . T h e only thing left for me to rebel against is you... you and y o u r i m m o r a l i t y . "

This exchange be tween Stomil , an eccentric artist a lways dressed in u n b u t t o n e d pajamas and con-ducting theatr ical exper imen t s , and his straight son Ar thu r , a serious, fanat ic young man search-ing for some kind of o rder in the universe, established the s i tua t ion that is the focus of Mrozek ' s study of the na tu re and e f f ec t s of revolution. A r t h u r ' s need t o rebel drives him to seek the re-estab-lishment of the old mora l code

and the securi ty of the conven-t ions that his pa ren t s have fought so hard t o des t roy . He enlists the aid of his weak and pi t i ful great-uncle, Eugene, and his at trac-tive cousin, Ala, to force his family to revere t radi t ion (ep i tomized in the whi te , church wedding of Ala and Ar thur ) .

BUT ARTHUR f inds that he canno t , in all hones ty , re turn to a moral code that is no longer viable. He searches for a new idea to jus t i fy his revolt , concluding that power over life and death is his u l t imate jus t i f i ca t ion . If society has no th ing else, it will have order , and b ru t e force precludes the shape that order will assume. Ar thu r discovers t oo late that if b ru t e force is to be al l -powerful , it is the b ru tes w h o will con t ro l the order . A r t h u r is finally des t royed by the incarnat ion of his ideal.

Al though it is admi t t ed ly a play of ideas, Tango never be-comes a mere phi losophical trea-tise. T h e absurd i ty of human exis tence is revealed when an ironic twist of the plot keeps the characters f rom ever taking them-selves too seriously. When Ar thu r announces his in t en t ion of becom-ing a doc to r , Eleanor screams, " W h a t ? " A disgrace to the whole family! I've always d reamed of his becoming an art ist . When I was carrying him in my w o m b , I ran th rough the w o o d s stark naked singing Bach. All for n o t h i n g ! " T o which A r t h u r replies, "Maybe you sang out of t u n e . "

THE HOPE College p roduc t ion of Tango is somewha t uneven

and rough, but finally, en joyable and thought -provoking .

T h e l imi ta t ions of the Little Thea te r have been dealt with effect ively. The demands of the script make this a d i f f icul t set to design for a small stage, bu t there are n o m a j o r problems that Michael Gr inds ta f f has not taken care of . The lighting is somewha t dis turbing as it is nei ther subtle nor clear, and several e f f ec t s are dis tract ing rather than interpre-tive.

THE SMALL act ing area causes d i f f icul ty in movement , especially in the many chase sequences. J o h n T a m m i ' s direc-tion is s m o o t h with only occa-sional m o m e n t s when the audi-ence's credul i ty is s trained. Espec-ially well d o n e is the long scene be tween A r t h u r and Stomil as they discuss the possibility for t ragedy in m o d e r n life. The scene, when read, is stat ic and rhetorical , but George Ralph as Stomil and David Oost ing as A r t h u r build to the illogical, absurd climax in one of the most exci t ing scenes of the play.

Genera l ly , the acting pe r fo rm-ances are adequa te , bu t somet imes two-dimensional and inconsis tent . The audience is not really pre-pared for m a n y of the character changes that happen , expecially in the third act.

OOSTING DOES except ional ly well as Ar thur , cap tur ing the f rant ic , intense spirit of the charac ter . The re is some lack of variety in the in te rp re ta t ion , bu t Oost ing 's fl ights of genuine emo-tional response carry him th rough .

Ralph as Stomil and Edward Whi t taker as Uncle Eugene handle their par ts well. Paul Bach's in t e rp re t a t ion of Eddie is disap-point ing; s o m e h o w Bach never qui te achieves the s t rength neces-sary to make the end of the play believable.

SUE ELLEN WISE'S por t raya l of Eleanor is consis tent and clear, a l though s t e reo typed . The diff i-cult act ing problem of playing an old w o m a n wi thou t the temper-ment of an old woman is a t t empt -ed by Arlene Van Steveninck. Eugenia emerges as a somet imes

spritely old lady, somet imes t roublesome young woman . Bar-bara Wat t ' s in te rpre ta t ion of Ala lacks the emot iona l depth of the character , but has some good m o m e n t s ( f o r example , when she hides under Uncle Eugene 's derby and pouts) .

Tango has been called a parable of Western culture, a twent ie th-century Hamlet and an expose of 'power ' s savage parody of logic." Certainly it is not a simple play; it is h u m o r o u s and horr i fying. You'll want to talk about it.

Greening of America: a revolutionist's naivete Editor's Note: This week's aA7c/7or review is wr i t ten by sophomore philosophy major, Neal Freed-man. He reviews The Greening of America by Charles Reich (Ran-dom House, $8.95).

There is no be t t e r p roof that all h is tory is the his tory of repet i t ion , that new t h o u g h t s are really old t hough t s dressed up in

con t empora ry language, than the cyclic recurrence of those who

deny this very process, who believe in the per fec tab i l i ty of man and the inevitabil i ty of progress. A fu r the r proof is that standing direct ly next to these great opt imis ts of his tory are unavoidably those who cynically discount them as wishful th inkers , fools of a grand sort , m y t h makers who have only to look at history to see that the only t rue enlight-enment is that which denies the possibility of en l igh t enmen t .

NOW, SINCE THE fact that history inevitably and identical ly repeats itself has been i r re fu tab ly established, it is a mere m a t t e r of deduc t ion to conc lude tha t Char-les Reich, a u t h o r of The Greening of Ameierica, is the historical re incarnat ion of A n t o i n e Nicolas de Condorce t , au tho r of The Progress of the Human Mind. Condorce t , a c o n t r i b u t o r to the French En l igh tenmen t , strongly opposed the Old Regime: Reich opposes an old regime called the Corpora te Sta te . C o n d o r c e t was a mode ra t e in regard to the means of the Revolu t ion and fo r this

reason he was imprisoned by the more radical Reign of Ter ror in 1794. Reich, t oo believes that the Revolut ion in this c o u n t r y will succeed wi thou t violence (so we already k n o w his fa te) .

Condorce t t h o u g h t he s tood on the threshold of the t en th and final stage of h u m a n his tory, the cl imax of man ' s progress, his l iberat ion th rough Reason and Science (En l igh t enmen t I: of the Mind); Reich believes that we in the United States s tand on the threshold of the Age of Aquarius, the l iberat ion of man from Tech-nology and the Technocra t i c S ta te , through Love, Innocence and Bel l -Bottom Pants (Enlight-e n m e n t II: of the Heart) . It 's as self-evident as my natural rights! Condorce t , disguised as a Yale Law Professor and wri t ing under an assumed name, has re turned to correct his mistakes.

REICH PROCEEDS, just as his previous self d id , historically to show the t ru th of his p rophecy . Since Science and Reason have failed as the w e a p o n s of Libera-t ion , they have been replaced by what Reich calls Consciousness . Consciousness is a pa t te rn of measured responses which charac-terize an age. T h u s Consciousness I is the old Amer ican ideal of the rugged individual , t he inner-directed moralist sacrificing him-self in his personal ba t t l e with na ture . He is the p ioneer of the West and the robber ba ron of the East .

Consciousness II, ep i tomized by the New Deal, is the spirit of the Organiza t ion Man (a la Whyte)

whose e f fo r t s in life are for what he th inks to be the c o m m o n good. He is obsessed with the principles of e f f i c iency , cont ro l and order. Consciousness I failed in its vision, which explains Consciousness H. Still, r emnan t s of Consciousness I have survived, and these die-hards of bygone days struggle with Consciousness H. This is what we usually call politics.

REICH SEES T H E flaw in Condorce t ' s predic t ions . Man's spirit of scientif ic inquiry com-bined with his t r e m e n d o u s prow-ess fo r ac t ions which p r o m o t e the good of all has produced a "mind less j u g g e r n a u t " which, far f rom liberating man f rom injus-tice, ignorance and pover ty , has made him in to a powerless, o f t e n willing, slave to all three . The Corpora t e S ta te , a highly effect ive and s t ruc tured social machine developed through the merger of Big Business and Big Gove rnmen t (unt i l one canno t be dist inguished f rom the o ther ) , is dedicated to the pe rpe tua t i on of the f reedom of u n f r e e d o m . It insures this th rough repressive violence and th rough more subtle , though no less violent , means.

T h e most a f f luen t cit izens of the Corpo ra t e Sta te are its most impoverished souls. They lead rou t ine , s tandardized existences. T h e y buy color televisions and d e o d o r a n t soap. Blindly hedon-istic and material is t ic , they have lost the sensibilities and values which character ize real h u m a n beings. Consciousness II: t he spirit of a u t o m a t i o n and c o n s u m p t i o n .

So, where lies l iberat ion?

YOU G U E S S E D IT. Where there is a Consciousness II, there is a Consciousness HI wait ing to be developed . Consciousness 111 is "chi ld l ike , breathless, reverent , i n n o c e n t , " anti-material ist ic , hon-est, loving, j oy fu l , opt imis t ic , etc. , all those qualit ies we associ-ate wi th the new hippie genera-tion (Tha t ' s you and I, b ro thers ! Sing a song of yourself! )

Consciousness 111 has develop-ed because someth ing has gone wrong with the machine . The circuits are being overloaded with con t rad ic t ions . Middle-class fa thers work hard at a tedious, meaning-less exis tence to provide their chi ldren with color televisions which expose the Vie tnam war and the u rban ghe t to . The system is jus t beginning to self-destruct . Art i f ic ial i ty , steril i ty, exp lo i ta t ion and death-deal ing are being ex-posed!

T H E MIDDLE-CLASS you th of this coun t ry have received the divine i l luminat ion. Rock bands , drugs, free love, tie-dyed shirts and be l l -bo t tom pants (Reich says the last make you want to dance in the s t reets! ) are showing the way. T h e Revolut ion is here! A new f r eedom is growing! This will be a new na t ion , a new example for mank ind to fol low!

Poor , poor Mr. Reich. He looked at his smiling, long-haired (r ich) s tuden t s at Yale and got all exci ted . He got so exci ted that he forgot all abou t Janis Jopl in , J imi Hendrix , A l t a m o n t , heroince add-icts, the violent New Left and so on. Poor Mr. Reich, he has been taken in.

U N C O M P R E H E N D I N G Mr. Reich. He sympath izes with Her-bert Marcuse, but fails to under-stand Marcuse's stress on the ability of the Sta te to incorpora te sub-cul tures into the system and thus negating sub-cultures as sub-versive threats . Reich fails to unders tand that the news on television is in te f r rup ted period-ically by commercia ls showing bosomy broads in bubble baths. This makes the " e x p o s e d " murder of Vie tnamese villagers much more palatable.

Naive Mr. Reich. He is naive to believe that Consciousness III is so very genuine and pure. More o f t en than not Consciousness III is negative consc iousness -consc ious -ness of escapism and retreat . And, even if this is not so; if Conscious-ness III is truly a revolut ionary consciousness (which 1 d o u b t ) , Reich is naive enough to believe that rebell ion will be successful through consciousness alone. He is wrong. Revolut ion in this coun t ry will require a radical force. The conversion of Consciousness I and Consciousness II will not happen peaceful ly , if at all.

Condorce t has re turned to haunt us. He is again popular izing the old m y t h of progress. The Greening of America, " t h e Estab-l ishment version of revo lu t ion" (Marcuse), has a t t rac ted much a t t en t ion as an enlightened work . En l igh tenment II, however , will prove as successful as Enlighten-ment 1. I am regretfully recalci-t rant . But no amoun t of wishful th inking can hide the t ru th .

1970-71: the ''Year of the Great Nothingness' by Drew Hinderer

Last Sep tember I wrote an essay about the "Yea r of the Great Mora to r iums" and our re-sponse to it, which I called " T h e Protest Exper ience . " 1 claimed then that we 'd drif ted in to a certain way of living that d idn ' t depend upon actually solving moral and political problems, but upon making our little cry of outrage and going on placidly with a life grown comfor tab le and familiar with bruta l i ty , cruel ty and violence.

INSTEAD OF dealing with real political and social problems, I said, we dealt with ourselves, translating our political and social gestures into existential gestures, turning inward to self-examina-tions and personal " g r o w i n g " experiences. We lived our aliena-tion as a sense of fu l f i l lment , adjust ing to the concrete moral evils and actual violence benea th our society by our adeptness with the appropr ia te cliche; grumbl ing righteously we did nothing.

The year now ending has not proven me mis taken: if it was a notable year, it must be called the "Year of the Great Noth ingness"

in which we learned to subs t i tu te silence for our outcr ies and protes ta t ions . It has not been fo r lack of issues: the war has taken a new and ugly shape, widening in scope and narrowing in American par t ic ipat ion s imultaneously, and events closer t o home have th rown the legal system and our own educat ional purposes up for view. But we have not responded.

POLITICALLY, is our non-response a recognit ion that we are a group wi thout status, wi thout power in the face of the American amiabil i ty? Is it because our causes have been watered down and usurped by the masses? Is it because we have lost a view of anyth ing bet ter , t ruer , more hon-est?

Certainly what we cried out for last year, when we cried ou t for it, has become inst i tut ional ized, or discredited. We saw that last mon th in Washington. The veter-ans' march was moving and influential ( to the extent that any protest can be inf luent ial) ; the s tudents ' march was disgusting and t i resome; or worse, it was boring. The veterans are an

Garrett DeGraff selected to edit

'anchor;' Farrar to head Vpus' Garret t DeGraff was named

edi tor of the Hope College anchor for the 1971-72 academic year by the S tuden t Commun ica t i ons Media C o m m i t t e e Tuesday.

The c o m m i t t e e also selected Steve Farrar to edit the Opus, Lynda Wiff to edit the Milestone and named Doug Levine General Manager of WTAS.

DeGraff , a senior, will be returning to Hope to comple t e work on his English major . The Schenec tady , New York resident has been a m e m b e r of the anchor since his f reshman year when he worked as a reporter . The next year he served as news edi tor and as a jun ior he was assistant edi tor .

The first semester of the current year DeGraff s tudied at the University of Novi Sad,

Yugoslavia, and this semester he has worked as associate ed i tor under edi tor Gerald Swieringa.

Farrar , who will be a senior next fall, has wri t ten for the Opus for several years. The English major is being published this spring in an anthology of modern poe t ry .

The new edi tor of the Mile-stone, Lynda Wiff, is a sopho-more. She is current ly assistant edi tor .

Doug Levine, a jun ior , has served for two years as music di rector of WTAS.

DeGraff announced tha t jun io r Bob Roos will assist him next year as associate edi tor . The s taffs of the Opus, Milestone and WTAS have no t yet been announced .

expression of the inst i tut ionaliza-tion of our previous outrage; the s tudents are an expression of the discreditat ion of con f ron t a t i on methods , and of us by implica-tion. But few of us are conscious of this development . It is not this consciousness that has brought on our non-responsiveness.

WE HAVE FACED a crisis in law, even here. The f t has gone on to r idiculous lengths. And we have complied with it, we have partici-pated in it because we perceive our legal system as capricious when it deals with us. We have of ten known when a criminal action was about to happen , yet we have steadily refused to s top it, for we know that to invoke the police is to deny that a s i tuat ion that spawns crime exists, that it must be dealt with, and to suggest that it is only particular o f fender s that must be punished. We know that the situation involves more than part icular of fenders . We are all guil ty, and we know it.

To invoke the law is to establish hypocrisy and give up any hope that the base problem might be dealt with. We know our guilt and we revel in it; it is a mark of our ident i ty as s tudents , it is our character . Is it then this guilt that prevents us f rom acting in legally responsible ways? Or is it our percept ion that the legal system will move swift ly only to punish, never to alter social wrongs?

SOME O F US have reached the end of our educat ional exper ience at Hope . It is a f rus t ra t ing end: we find that we are worthless . Meas-ured like all Americans as com-modit ies , we find that we are unwan ted and unneeded , even the best of us as we rank ourselves, in a society that calls its intelligensia a peripheral luxury . Some of us, myself included, will go on to pos tpone our reject ion to a later

t ime. But the rest of us - where are the jobs for we that have dreamed the great dream, who have worked hard and got ten o u r degree? Is there a place in our society for us? Is there a place in our society where we can make a significant cont r ibu t ion?

Again, to the extent that we respond, we turn inward. We are told that we have value, but society rejects us as commodi t ies . Doesn ' t this suggest that the college that seemed to be socie ty ' s training ground has been wrong in molding us, that we ought to have our personal wor th recognized in courses per se? And we have begun to walk this road. We call i t"exper ient ia l learning," where credits are given for our presence, for what we might con t r ibu te f rom our experience, and for what we do together . Three hours for painting theatrical sets, three hours for debunking what scholars do, sixteen hours for watching psychiatrists work in hospitals. Why not three hours for marching in Washington, three hours for walking the dog, sixteen hours for having a love affair .

THE COLLEGE has unknow-ingly acquiesed in this; we still have no un i form educat ional phil-osophy , though it must be said that "exper ient ia l learning" is yet the except ion rather than the rule - that is a credit to some of the very faculty we have cursed for their implacable irrelevancy.

There is a second mani fes ta t ion of this inward turning in our educat ional experience: to an unusually enlarged degree, we have ceased to d i f fe ren t ia te be-tween what used to be called "academic specula t ion" and per-sonal examinat ion. It seems no longer possible to consider hypo-thet ical cases: when we talk about G o d , for example , it is no longer possible to do theology apart

f rom threats to sundry personal rocks of faith. The approach is pervasive; it ex tends to every conceivable quest ion about values, any conceivable quest ion about which one might have an opinion not directly a mat ter of fact . When this happens , inquiry stops.

SO WE have turned inward. We live our guilt, our distrust and our willing ignorance as fu l f i l lment , and are absolved f rom acting by our very sense of fu l f i l lment . The subst i tu t ion of ourselves in the place of every other possible value, the search for knowledge, social or political issues or what-ever, has turned the educat ional process into a search for heal th. One easily gets the feeling that what most of us have in mind by a relevant college experience is mere acceptance.

HDICC warns

II-S deferments

may be ended The Holland Draft In format ion

and Counseling Center has ac-knowledged that new II-S s tudent under-graduate defe rments may not be granted beyond July 1, 1971.

However, it is possible that those defe rments now held by s tudents may be renewable next fall, stated Martin Wessendorf, s tudent advisor to the HDICC.

Because of impending changes in the draf t law, the II-S defer-ment may become obsolete , Wes-sendorf pointed out . He urged s tudents who do not now have a II-S to apply for the defe rment before the end of the current academic year. Only s tudents current ly holding a II-S de fe rment will be eligible for a renewal next year, Wessendorf s tated.

Ralph elected recipient of 71 H.O.P.E. award

Assistant Professor of Thea t r e and chairman of the depa r tmen t George Ralph has been named the 1971 recipient of the H.O.P.E. Award, it was announced Thurs-day.

THE AWARD, which has been presented annually for the last four years, is given at the discretion of members of the graduating class who vote fo r Hope's Outs tanding Professor-Educator , the faculty m e m b e r who best typif ies the dist inctive qualities of the Hope college educator .

He en joys acting, and has part icipated extensively in many Little Thea t re p roduc t ions in this capaci ty. Ralph 's phi losophy is that any teacher who is teaching acting should bi acting himself . Current ly, he s appear ing in Tango.

RALPH IS also known for his "Religion and Drama" course, which bears the dis t inct ion of being " t h e only senior seminar course that is so popu la r tha t they 've had to open t w o sec-t ions ," according to j un io r thea t re major Kay Hubbard .

When asked how he felt when he heard about the honor , Ralph said s imply, "1 was very sur-pr ised."

"He ' s just a fine m a n - a really fine m a n , " commented one senior woman. "He doesn ' t f launt his intell igence."

Neckers named

Sloan Res. fellow

Dr. Douglas C. Neckers, associ-ate professor of chemist ry , has been named a Sloan Research Fellow by the Alfred P. Sloan Fou nda t ion .

NECKERS WAS one of 77 young scientists selected f rom 500 nominees for their research poten-tial on the basis of nomina t ions by senior colleagues.

Neckers is the only winner f rom a Michigan college or univer-sity and is one of just two fellows f rom private liberal arts colleges in the United States.

NECKERS AND the o the r Sloan Fellows will receive an average of $8 ,750 a year over a two year period beginning in Sep tember . Neckers said he will use a high propor t ion of his grant for s t ipends for s tudent research assistants.

The Sloan Fel lowship program is designed to allow research la t i tude to its recipients. T h e Fel lowship may be used for the purchase of equ ipment and sup-plies, s tudent stipends, suppor t of technical and scientific assistance, professional travel, summer sup-port and other purposes.
