LEFT: Bringing a captivating lecture style and her own unique personality to North, noted anthropologist Margaret Mead conveyed her definitive judgements about changing sexual mores. BELOW LEFT: Following Mrs. Mead, Dr. Aaron Stem, a local psychiatrist, frankly discussed sex and youth. Senior Values Students have always demanded a more rele- vant education. Originated by Mr. Noyes, the senior Values Seminar provided a new brand of supplementary program, offering a more mean- ingful second semester for seniors. After months of hard work and planning, seminars were finally presented to the public. Topics and format were carefully arranged by a group of four teachers, thirteen students and five parents, headed by Dr. Paul E. Rupff, Co- 16 ordinator of Secondary Instruction for the Great Neck Public Schools. Dealing with twelve major topics, one per week, the seminars included such guest speakers as anthropologist Margaret Mead, black power advocate Irving Davis, New York City Police Commissioner Howard Leary, athlete Jackie Rob- inson, and psychiatrists, lawyers, rabbis and priests. Topics encompassed Changing Sex Mores, Alienation, Black Power,” The Draft.' Education, Dissention, and Preju- dice. The program, launched on February 13, ran through to May, culminating in an all-day work- shop session. The overwhelming response to the plan made it difficult and almost unfair to ex- clude juniors and sophomores from the sessions.

BELOW: Zack Brauer moderates dis- cussion on racial and religious preju- dice among three local clergymen Father Mooney, Rev. Walker and Rab- bi Davidson. Seminar For seniors, the seminar provided a relief from the academic pressures of high school. In a re- laxed atmosphere, students were exposed to varied ideas and given the chance to examine them in discussions. Several topics seemed more relevant to seniors than some of the regular course ma- terial. But most important, seminars made students think deeply about themselves and their role in society. Discussion did not end in the auditorium or the small cafeteria, but was carried into the classrooms and beyond the bounds of school. Perhaps the most progressive educational pro- gram ever to come to North, the Values Seminar will be continued next year and might possibly become part of the regular educational program for sophomores and juniors. Students on the planning board included Alan Berkowitz, Zack Brauer. Peter Chaikin, Bruce Ferguson, Debbie Friend, Terry Garfinkle, Neal Goldsmith, Donald Kollisch, David Merens, Richard Powell, Mimi Saltzman, Wendy Schul- hof, and Harriet Weinmann. Cooperating with them were faculty members Mr. Charles Butera, Mrs. Dorothy Heilman, Dr. Martin Propper, and Mrs. Florence Rapoport.
