You can't move on unless you change; you stay where you are and

you die. Life is change; it's the law of nature.

We dedicate the 1972 Peddler to the necessity

for change.

Olie: When I was going here the school was about the size of the

present freshman class; a little bigger, maybe.

Hall: Must have been a nice little family group.

Olie: In a sense it was, but in a sense it was a cold, unfriendly

place; this was the impression I got.

Olie: It was a very sterile place, with a very sterife atmosphere. Ofcourse I was at a disadvantage. I was a commuter, and I didn't live

in a dorm or belong to a fraternity, so I didn't know what wasgoing on after classes stopped.

r'S

Olie: I think one of the best things the school ever did was to go

coed. It's made a very marked change on the campus. It may not

look it all the time, but I think the students are a little more

careful of what they do or say.

Olie: _When I was here the percentage of students in fraternities was about 89%.

Dion: Did your attitudes change in going from being a student to

being a teacher?

Olie: Oh, am I a teacher now? You've got to realize that when I

was going here I was sort of the typical Tech turkey. My attitudes

have changed, but then my attitudes are continually changing.

Things that I consider perfectly fine now, four years ago when I

was also a teacher I might have frowned upon a bit. One's

attitudes are bound to change. If one's attitudes don't change with

time then one has just died; one is dead if one isn't willing to

accept new ideas, new social mores.

Hall: What do you think a good teacher is?

Olie: A good teacher is somebody who arouses the interests of a

student and sort of makes him want to go on to learn more on his

own, and gets him so he does. He's not going to baby a student.

He's not going to force anyone to learn. If the student wants to

learn he'll find out about it.

Hall: What do you think the student-teacher relationship at Tech

is, or what do you think it should be?

Olie: It's a mediocre to fair relationship for, I'd say, a good part of

the faculty. For about half the faculty now it's improving a great

deal, due mostly to newer faculty. I think it should be a fairly

open relationship. Each should recognize the other as being a

human being.

Olie: I've been very close with a lot of students, and I've had some

of them in class. But I've never seen a student here expect me to

do him any favors because I was friendly with him or went

drinking with him.

Olie: I think that as soon as anyone becomes content with himself

that he should quit, because he's not going to be any good from

then on. I'm not content.

Olie: I'm becoming more and more disillusioned with classroom

tests. You only have so much time. . .and the danger is you try to

get sort of cute little questions, trick questions I guess the students

call them, which can be done rapidly if you're lucky. I guess the

teacher likes to say that you can do them if you really understand

the material. Maybe there's too much luck involved. I prefer to go

to oral exams or take-home exams, talk to the students and just

try to find out subjectively how good a grasp he has of the

material.

Hall: How do you think the goals of the students of today have

changed from the students of your day?

Olie: Probably not too much.

Hall: Do you think the student still looks for a job with a lot of

money?

Olie: A lot of them. Perhaps in the last few years the emphasis has

started to decline on the money aspect. There are probably more

students interested in, or paying lip service to, doing 'good works'.

Tech now has about one or two students a year going into the

Peace Corp. That's a big step forward.

Hall: Do you think Tech stimulates that interest?

Olie: No, I think the emphasis at Tech is on what kind of salary

you get when you graduate. That's what the kids talk about: the

job that gets the biggest salary. If things suddenly got good, I'm

afraid we'd see a lot of articles in the Worcester newspapers about

what the average starting salary for a Tech graduate was. I think

this is a horrendous misplacement of values.

It changed somewhat last year because people didn't have jobs.

Whether it's a permanent change or not I don't know. But I would

hate to hand this alternative to most of the graduates of this place:

I'll start you off at $12,000 a year or let you join the Peace Corp.

Hall: How many people, do you think, who are graduating from

here now, would turn down a job simply because they don't feel

they're ready to go into the job world of fifty weeks of work and

two of vacation?

Olie: I know a few who have done it last year. I wouldn't say a

high percentage. Most of the kids who get out of here are going to

fit immediately into that groove. They're going to get their job

then get married then settle down and build their little box houses

and try to work their way up the ladder.

Hall: Outside of Tech would you say the trend is away from jobs

and doing more of what you want to do?

Olie: I don't have that much contact outside of Tech, but I doubt

it. I think that a lot of these liberal arts colleges are filled with a

bunch of phonies. I'd say a big percentage of them are phonies.

And there are phonies around here, but, my own personal opinion

of a Tech student is that he's honest. At least he will admit that

he's going out to make money.

Hall: Is Worcester Tech 'real life'?

Olie: No. They're all staged problems. The big thing about the

Plan is to make it more real life. It's a controlled community. It

can't be real.

Dion: Is Worcester Tech any less real than other colleges?

Olie: No, it's more real. As I said, the students here are much moreopen and honest.

Dion: Can any of you possibly tell us how you think you have

changed since coming to Worcester Tech.

Podolny: In four years I have changed an incredible amount.

When I first came here I had decided I was going to be an engineer.

Studying the sciences and making a lot of money. Upon careful

reconsideration and evaluation I decided that this wasn't quite

what I wanted to do. I no longer feel that engineering is a good

way to help people. Now it's about 50-50, with engineering, either

you help keep people alive or you help destroy them. I think that

my biggest change has come upon realizing that science, engineer-

ing, liberal arts and humanities are pretty meaningless.

Mooradian: When I was in high school I was interested in science

and Worcester Tech was a good place to go, they had what I

wanted. Over the past three years I have learned a lot about what

science is and what it means to major in a science. I have learned a

lot about what science has done in the past and what it can do and

as a result I have become a bit disgusted. I am more mixed up nowthan I was when I came here. I really don't know what I am going

to do but I feel that I have learned some important things

especially about myself.

Andreozzi: In coming to Worcester Tech, my goals, I thought at

that time, were very well defined. I knew I would study science

and I wanted to study science at an engineering school so I could

communicate with engineers. It turned out to be a meaningless

construct. I thought I would get my B.S. and go on to a Ph.D.

program somewhere else. A lot of things besides school changed

this. The job market for Ph.D.'s has changed. I also saw what was

ahead for a Ph.D. in the academic life. These people were muchmore human beings than I thought they were. They fight and they

struggle and stab each other in the back just as anybody would. I

was very disillusioned. I felt that the school and the faculty

believed it was more important to get the grade than to learn

something. I was very disappointed by this. I ran into a dead end.

Podolny: When I came to Worcester Tech I wasn't disillusioned at

all. I didn't expect any great social situation which we don't have

here at Tech, I didn't expect any academic stockpile at Tech

(everyone in unison: which we don't have here at Tech). I really

expected when I came here to learn how to learn and by not going

to classes I did. I don't think that college is necessary, if that's the

point in college.

Mooradian: One of my disappointments with college is that theyteach you a skill. This is what you want to be and this is what youmust do to be that, this is how I found college. There is a liberal

education, if that is worth anything, studying English and historyand philosophy and learning what other people have said aboutlife is about, and there is this type of education which is training.

Andreozzi: They train you to get a job. It is a vocational school.

A four year Voc Tech. I would say that a majority of the kids

came here because college is the place to go after graduating high

school. It keeps you out of the army and you don't have to work.

You can have four years of enjoying yourself and you don't have

to live at home. You can also make money when you get out.

Podolny: If you take 99% of the students at Worcester Tech

you'll find they are always thinking past or future and they don't

think about what they are doing now. That's one reason whymany can't study. It's either that chick who really screwed me up

again, or I'm going to get really totalled Saturday night.

Podolny: If you want to straighten yourself out school is as good

a place as any. It's safe here. It's also very free here. It will be a lot

easier to straighten yourself out here than at home.

Dion: Isn't school a big part of your life now?

Podolny: School is a womb to me. It's safe, no hassles. But school

gives you a chance to think.

Dion: Who feels free? How about you Bruce you've been here for

less than a year, do you feel freer?

Charette: A lot freer. I live in Worcester and I wanted to go to

college for free and stay in Worcester and that is why I am here. I

am not in college for the purpose of graduating and making

money. I am the only one rather than my parents who can restrict

myself. I have to make the decisions for myself and it's different.

You learn a lot about yourself under those circumstances. I think I

have matured. I also have discovered that my parents have made

the same mistakes I am making now. Classes in school are really

strange, alien. The whole process of going to class to learn how to

make money seems totally useless. My goals, I don't want to make

lots of money I just want to live, live so I can . . . I just want to be

able to live.

Andreozzi: The vast majority of seniors and juniors I knew as a

freshman had come in to get the job training, to prepare

themselves for the "American Dream". I saw them, and I've seen

five years of students since. My freshman class was possibly right

on the border in the transition from the straights to the freaks.

The people who were sophomores when I was a freshman were,

for the majority, straight — fraternity men; have a good time; and

study enough to get a good job. The year after my class a

tremendous wave of freaks came in. I don't mean that word in a

derogatory sense. The attitudes have changed in a way I can't

explain.

Lexier: What does a humane technologist mean to you?

Podolny: Kransberg when he spoke here mentioned a different

kind of efficiency; when an engineer is performing an engineering

function he should take in the variable of social conscience. I

thought he had a good idea except for the fact that this

automatically assumes that there is a set value system which

engineers should follow. Yet there are 200-odd million people in

the United States and 200-odd million value systems.

Mooradian: I think in place of humane technologist you could put

'common sense technologist', because there are a lot of things that

are just common sense, like pollution, overpopulation.

Mooradian: Most of us right now would just like to see what

happens with the Plan. It's not only the Plan, it's what's going to

happen to students in general, which is going to affect what

happens to students here. I think that's what this apathy is;

everybody's waiting. I'm just waiting to see what happens —slightly optimistic — and just waiting to see what happens.

Horn: My feeling is that each person teaches what's on his mind.

This is at least how I feel. I mean I teach me. I teach what I'm

interested in, in a particular time of my life. It basically reflects

the level of the knowledge I have accumulated at that particular

moment. I find myself constantly adjusting, changing my own

interests and therefore it's reflected on what goes on in class. So

that of course I hope I will continually change.

Horn: I hope that I will never reach a position where I'm teaching

the exact same thing or even anything close to the thing I taught

the semester before. The general subject area, the general area of

emphasis, which for me is the evolution of human consciousness is

always going to be my principal concern, since I think it is the

"highest" question that one can ask.

Dion: What kind of goals do you have for your classes? What are

you trying to get across to your students?

Horn: Well, I think that I would like the students to basically

recognize what the significant questions in life are, and perhaps

where to look for the answers to those questions. That's

fundamentally, I think the function of a teacher. Ultimately I

would like to hope that . . . the student would see that wisdom is

the ultimate quest for man, and that wisdom is something that

cannot be transmitted from one man to another, but it's

something that each of us has to work out. So, the function of the

teacher is to help the novice along the path. And I think this is

what I meant in the earlier part. That the best way to do this is to

demonstrate in your own life the validity of the body of

knowledge that you're offering to students.

Horn: I find every student a challenge, I don't like to see students

as a "technical" student, as a "humanities" student, whatever,

we're people, you know? And I think a technologist, if he's honest

with himself, is going to recognize that he has the exact same

problems, the same hangups a guy majoring in say philosophy has.

And he has to work out some kind of relationship with his ownself, he has to work out some kind of relationship with a woman,he has to work out the kind of problems he has with his own fears,

his own insecurities, he has to concern himself with the kinds of

pressures that society is placing upon him. That is, whether he is

an engineer, a satirist, or a philosopher, is irrelevant,

ultimately he's a man.

Horn: I find that you put yourself into a very small box, a limit

to your potential when you consider yourself an engineer rather

than a man. And therefore it doesn't matter whether it's a

technologist, or a philosopher, I'm concerned with having the

individual confront himself and if he confronts himself as an

engineer, well, that's what he's doing, making a living. That's

something else. I'm not here to train somebody so they can makea living. I'm here to present students with some questions that

have been presented in my lifetime and I have found helpful to

me, and I would like them to consider these questions and perhaps

apply them to their own life and see whether it would help them

get by.

L

Horn: Life is a very difficult thing to deal with, and learning how

to build a bridge isn't going to help you learn about life; to teach

you how to build a bridge, or lay a foundation, isn't what life is all

about. There are questions of love, hate, fear, death, peace and

freedom. I don't mean political. I mean inner peace and inner

freedom. These are questions that each of us have to deal with. I

see my function, whether it's addressing technologists or

addressing philosophers to get to the student, to get to the young

man, that's what you are; you're young men who are going to have

to resolve these questions some day in your life. All I can do is tell

you how / have sought to resolve these questions. And that body

of knowledge I have used to help resolve these . . . questions. And

then demonstrate the validity of this body of knowledge by myown life.

Dion: So you want your students to be aware of themselves and

the body of knowledge around them.

Horn: Yes. This is ultimately the quest of man, to discover whohe is or what he is, what is his relationship to the environment he

finds himself in.

Dion: Well obviously, you know, you need some guidance to

enhance this awareness part of education.

Horn: Sure. It comes in two ways. You learn from experience. Aman can't learn engineering, a man can't learn history until he goes

out and becomes an historian, until he practices history. What I'm

suggesting is that . . . you want to know what it's like to be an

engineer, perhaps the best thing to do is to experience "an

engineer." To absolutely live and breathe and live closely with a

man who considers himself an engineer, and understand what it

really means to be an engineer. Not engineering theory, not

engineering problems, what it really means to be an engineer.

Likewise, if you really want to know what it's like to be a man,

then ultimately, you're going to have to discover someone who is a

man and learn from him, what manhood is about. That's one way.

But it's very difficult to find the wise man, they don't seem to be

around. So, what you have, the second best thing is to find the

record of these men. The sort of teachings that they've left behind

so that others who haven't had the opportunity to experience

them directly at least can experience their teachings or their

vibrations through their language, through the symbols they have

left behind. A man's symbol is in fact a transferral of his psychic

energy, into an outer reality. And by experiencing these symbols

what you are doing is somehow communicating with that man's

psyche, the symbol maker.

Horn: History is the study of man, of civilized man. If you're

going to study the history of man's life or the history of man's

experience of the last ten thousand years, you're going to consider

that from a vantage point of what man is. And if you're going to

study man, his historical manifestation: you're going to have to

study psychology, sociology, literature, art, in fact all his symbols.

And history to me includes everything. You're studying the life

and experiences of man in history.

Horn: As a matter of fact I discovered that whether you call it

psychology, or whether you call it history, is really irrelevant, youknow, when it really comes down to it, in essence, what you're

really studying is man. And for me, history seems to help us with

all of it. I'm studying the history of man, and that means, if I'm

going to address myself to that problem, what do I have to knowto understand the history of man. Well, I have to understand the

way man functions, what is man, how does he live his life? Whatmotivates him, and in so doing ultimately, and in essence, I'm

trying to discover who / am. Because I am part of this category

called man, and in order to learn about myself I can study this

larger category of which I am a part. To discover something about

myself. Because that is what I am concerned about, me! I want to

know who / am! And I know that in one case I am part of this

larger collective, called man. And the history of that is impressed

upon my psyche. This is what evolution teaches me. That I ampart of this larger historical force called man. And whatever it's

history has been, ... I possess. And to understand myself I must

understand evolution. To me that's why I study history.

Dion: At Worcester Tech the past . . . well, since I've been here,

the past three years, we've been concerned with change. Thechanging role of the engineer in society, changing the aims and the

entire make-up of the school. One of the problems has been, not

that people are saying they're reluctant to change, but afraid that

other people would be reluctant to change. Do you find that

engineers-scientists, are reluctant to change?

Horn: I don't know, I don't really think so. This seems to be a

human problem. We get trapped by habit, as Herman Hesse says.

Habit . . . life is change. And yet, there are elements within ourlife, within our society, within our psyche which tend to prevent

us from moving on. We get caught in some kind of thing we feel

comfortable in, the thought of leaving that comfortable

environment, whether it's psychical or societal, and starting all

over again with a new challenge, is a frightening experience

because here . . . you might consider yourself successful in whatyou've done or you might feel comfortable in what you can do,

and therefore don't find it a hassle. And then suggest that youpick yourself up and change the whole thing with the possibility

that you won't be successful in trying to do it or the possibility

that it won't be as easy and there may be some hassles. It's a very

difficult thing to do. It's not only the scientist, the technologist or

the engineer who finds himself in that bag, it's man.

Horn: To define ourselves as an engineer is to become a machine.

Because an engineer is a thing. It's a thing you do. It's an

operational definition. It destroys the inner being. That's what we

are. We are human beings. We are not engineers. A man whodefines himself as an engineer has lost his soul.

K",

^ *^»^ -3f?

Dion: What's your view of the humane technologist?

Horn: I don't know what that means. I don't know what a

humane technologist means. Does it mean that the man is

humane . . . the student who leaves here is a humane being and

that no matter what he does he's going to breathe this humanity

into his creation? We all try to become humane, but I prefer to

talk about the education of the whole man. That's what in fact

they're saying. They are trying to make a human being a person

who will become a technologist, as a profession and will also be a

man. And by that I mean a human ... I don't know what it means

to make a humane technologist, I don't like the expression, I don't

think anybody understands exactly what it means, and I think it's

a reflection of a confused attitude, about what we're trying to dohere.

Dion: Yes, it goes back to what you said earlier about engineering

being only one aspect of man's life.

Horn: There is a thing that you learn to do in order to make a

living. But ultimately there's the human involved . . . the subject,

the being who is the engineer, or the being who is doing

engineering. And this is the man, the man we must educate.

Horn: Just because you know English doesn't mean you're

humane. I mean, to think that just because you have a training in

humanistic studies you are therefore humane, is nonsense. This is

incredible nonsense. One only has to look at a host of people whohave majored in English, who have majored in History, who have

become some of the most evil men in history, the most inhumane

people in the history of the planet ... It isn't built into the

humanities that you will develop a conscience, for example, that's

what you're really talking about. However, the function of the

humanities is to offer the student that body of knowledge he isn't

able to get in the sciences. Which, in fact deals with the more

humane questions. And in this sense, in order to educate the

whole man, this body of knowledge must be made available to

him. That's what I think, I hope, the WPI Plan has this in mind. If

it hasn't, then it will collapse, and you will just be calling

yourselves humane technologists or humanistic technologists ... If

you're thinking of merely producing a technologist who has taken

courses in the humanities, I think that you're missing the point

completely. It doesn't work that way.

Dion: Yes, I think that one of the reasons that they came up with

this catch-phrase of humane-technologist is ... a concern, or a fear

that people we're producing were not filling the larger role, that

they would act without fear of consequence.

Horn: Yes, I think it's much more important for a scientist and a

technologist to be humane, only because he has such an influence

in our daily life. He builds a machine and then ... we are all

suffocating because of it. He discovers a technique and we're using

it to exterminate a variety of people. The thought that an

engineer's function is merely to produce as many technical gadgets

or scientific gadgets as he can without the responsibility of . . . not

having the responsibility for what he created, it is a very

dehumanizing concept to think about. To think that a man could

even see things in those terms! As merely a production machine,

that he doesn't have an obligation to himself. To not ask himself

whether his creation is a valid one or worthwhile, whether

humanity should have it, I think is a terrible thing to do to

oneself. To limit oneself in that way, to see oneself merely as a

machine that produces so that someone else can decide what to

do

Dion: This brings up the problem of progress for progress' sake.

Do you consider this a viable problem today?

Horn: This gets back to the question, what is progress? If you

think going faster or building things bigger or making more of

whatever it is you have, is progress, I think you've missed the

point again. Progress has nothing to do with those things. Progress

seems to be again, concentrated on the evolution of the humanpsyche. When man begins to progress, then you will notice the

way he treats other men will differ. In the last three or four

thousand years we have made hardly any progress. Again, if you

define progress by that we have more things, more material things,

or we can go to point A or point B faster, or we can go to point Cwhich we were never able to go to before and you think that's

progress, or that we can build things 70 stories tall rather than

four stories tall, if you define progress, well, you know, that's

your hangup. That to me isn't progress. And to talk about progress

for progress' sake, that makes no sense. I haven't the slightest idea

what that means.

eschatological (es ke te loj ekel) adj. 1. describing the

doctrines of the last or final things, as death, the

judgment, the future state, etc. . .

Dion: What's your view of progress then?

Horn: Progress is measured by the evolution of human conscious-

ness. Simply that. When man becomes more conscious of who he

is and what he is, that's progress.

,»*»»r

"

-•^i^X i-

Dion: But a lot of people look at progress in this respect: the

machine, the means rather than the end.

Horn: Well, then that's an indication that we don't have progress.

The mere fact that people look at it that way is an indication that

there hasn't been very much progress. You know, what's the

difference between Julius Caesar and Richard Nixon, or Lyndon

Baines Johnson, or Kosygin, or DeGaulle —I mean, what's the

difference between them. One can kill men faster because he has

the technical know-how, or one is able to enslave more individuals

because they have mastered the art of government bureaucracy. Is

that progress?

Dion: Well, how does an engineer enact that progress? . . . Howdoes an engineer fit into this progress?

Horn: He's a man . . . not that he's an engineer. He has to deal

with the questions that all men have to deal with. He has to

become conscious. He has to wake up. He has to find out what he

really is. He has to face himself. And when he begins to face

himself and . . . what he is, he's on the path. Then move further,

seek to understand the unconscious nature of the being, and unity

with the Self. The closer you come to unity with the Self . . . this

is progress.

Horn: You can't move on unless you change; you stay where you

are and you die. Life is change; it's the law of nature. The problem

with our society is that we get hung-up on childhood, and

although we seem to change physically we don't change spiritual-

ly, so that we discover when we are fifty or sixty years old we're

doing the very thing we were doing when we were ten years

old: playing. We were playing cops and robbers, playing bad guys

and good guys when we were nine years, and playing king of the

mountain. And we seem to be doing the same thing now that we

are forty or fifty, except that now we play with real guns instead

of little cap pistols. Men haven't grown up; there has been little

progress. When men grow up there will no no war. Human beings,

men, don't kill each other.

through

ENVIRONMENTALENGINEERING

Pollution of our environment is a continuing

threat to our health, safety, economic welfare and

aesthetic enjoyment. Survival dictates that our

environmental resources must be protected from

any acts which unreasonably lessen their qualities

and adversely affect their level of usefulness.

While considerable progress has been made

in pollution control, our resources will be further

impaired by population growth, commercial expan-

sion, chemical usages and other technological

advancements.

As a member of the Water Pollution Control

Federation, the American Water Works Associa-

tion, and the New England Water Works Associa-

tion. NORTON COMPANY is pledged to support

sound pollution control measures and contribute

its efforts to develop economical and effective

means of control.

And we mean just that. Whether it be land,

water, or air. NORTON COMPANY helps environ-

mental engineers keep it clean. NORTON abrasives

are employed in systems which reduce solid wastes

to facilitate disposal, incineration, or reclamation.

NORTON porous ceramic filtration products dif-

fuse the air which purifies billions of gallons of

sewage daily in many metropolitan cities. NORTONfume scrubbers keep dust vapor, and noxious fumes

from polluting the air near industrial plants.

But most importantly. NORTON COMPANYsalutes the environmental engineering fraternity

everywhere for whatever part they play in this

profound program. Norton Company. Worcester,

Massachusetts.

',£> s>< "..;

What should a yearbook be? It can be as the word says, a book about that past

year. A yearbook can be a big descriptive catalogue of clubs, sports, fraternities,

faculty members, and of course, seniors. Should a yearbook be designed so that

it benefits the reader most after he has graduated? The 1972 Peddler staff

believes that a yearbook should in fact be all of these things and more.

What's wrong with a yearbook that is designed to benefit the reader right

now? Like the bird in Huxley's Island always chanting, "Attention. Attention.

Here and now, boys.", the purpose of the 1972 Peddler, in part, is to make the

reader aware of his own psyche.

Through copy and pictures we have tried to portray a student's fantasies,

goals, his motivations and social pressures. More importantly, we have tried to

stress the importance of change, the theme of the 1972 Peddler. Everyone has

seen the change in dress and in hair length but what about changing goals,

attitudes about the 9-5 job and in the meaning of our very existence?

The 1972 Peddler is divided into two books. Volume One contains all the

material that a yearbook wouldn't be a yearbook without. Volume Two is

where we have tried to tell all that has been previously described. Because of

soaring publication costs a hard bound book may not be possible again. We

hope that this type of soft cover format meets with your approval. Although

only a handful of people have put the 1972 Peddler together, we have never

lost sight of the fact that this book belongs to the students.

I would like to thank the staff for having the patience to wait until I found

out how to be an editor. Thanks, as always, to Dean Van Alstyne for being a

silent but a.lways-there-when-needed faculty advisor. Special thanks to his

secretary, Susan Plante, for helping us with our advertising material.

I hope that you live your life in such a way that when you bring the 1972

Peddler down from the shelf to show your friends, your children or just to look

back you don't get more pleasure from escaping into your days at Worcester

Tech than you do from the nowness of that time in your life.

Attention. Attention. Here and now, boys.
