I was born bright eyed and innocent in the 1 946th year of our Lord. To be more exact, the date was September 16; the place was Stuttgart. Germany. After an uneventful childhood that was spoiled by the absence of authentic GI Joe soldier dolls and kill ' em death, everybody-in-the- neighborhood-has-one tommy-guns, television, and Daniel Boone skunk caps, my parents moved to America in 1954, and three years later we had a re-union in Hatboro, Pennsylvania. I started school one month afterwards, attending third grade for one day, fourth grade for two days, and subsequently being placed in the fifth grade and there forgotten. During my three year stay in junior high school, I played football, participated in wrestling, ran for the track team, made friends and enemies (a practice that has continued until today), wore black leather jackets and suites with white socks to dances. In high school the same pattern was true, but then we wore black socks, black raincoats, and button-down collar shirts to look more collegiate. I went back to Germany for three months after my senior year in high school. and then came to Bloomsburg because I wanted to wrestle. My freshman year I studied, read subversive books, carried my home-made Get Out of Vietnam sign at Bloomsburg ' s protest to the Vietnam protest movement, grew long hair, and wrote poetry. After an unsuccessful attempt to enroll at U of P. my second year before the Sun was the year of change at Bloomsburg. Old North was torn down, and other buildings sprung up all over the campus. In early spring it was like marching through World War I trenches in the rain. My Junior year was the surrealistic time of Slack, the Gadfly. M G resignation, protest (?) march outside of Andruss Library in support of free press and speech, and continuing student awareness. Benyo took over the M G. Slack put it to the administration. as did the ACLU and the State Attorney General . . . and Schulz wrote articles of protest about the college in his column for the M G. I had run for CGA representative twice before and twice defeated. But I still thought about correcting the wrongs instead of writing about them. Sic, Don Quixote. So, Pletcher. Slack, Capello. and Schulz started SURGE, a student party united to reform something — but exactly what has been long since forgotten. We had our day of victory, felt jubilant, and then made ready for the onslaught. It was not long before many of us knew that we were engaged in an exercise of futility. Fund-raising events, approval of certain club constitutions, money requests to buy new caps and gowns, money for ARM and ARW to buy new TV ' s, such is the stuff of which CGA meetings are made. The dragons have not been slain, wrongs not righted, and fair maidens not rescued. It was a wonderful, inaudible year or four. when teacups floated by, carrying the ashes of burned BA diplomas, spilled over the river winding, and floating out to sea. ron schulz
