EW VISTAS Expanding its services on all fronts, BCC enters an unprecedented growth period. To describe the dynamic changes, Silver Sands invited as guest writer Dr. Clinton Hamilton, Vice President and Dean of Academic Affairs. Amidst a rapidly increasing enrollment, Broward Com- munity College is preparing for further dramatic increases. Rather than viewing this situation as frustrating, members of the faculty, staff, and administration see this as a tremen- dously exciting challenge which should be viewed from a whol- ly positive standpoint. On September 15, 1970, the Board of Trustees changed the name from Broward junior to Broward Community Col- lege. This was made possible by legislation passed by the 1970 Florida Legislature that makes junior and community inter- changeable in reference to two-year colleges. Since, among other things, the word community really conveys the compre- hensive nature of the College's mission and programs, the Board made the name change, Within a two-year span the College has thus had three names. However, the current name will probably be permanent. The national trend is toward the use of the word community for designations of the two-year comprehensive public college. The Open-Door Colleges, a spe- cial report and recommendations by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education, issued in lune, 1970, adopts the designa- tion of community colleges for these institutions. Special short courses, seminars, and in-service courses are offered throughout the year as occasions and needs occur. A full complement of courses in both liberal arts and technical areas is offered by the College. Many different programs have been planned to meet the diverse objectives and goals of the students. Long range plans for the College call for three campuses, several centers in urban, high density population areas, and off-campus offerings as needed. The campuses will be geogra- phically distributed through the District- Broward County. The central campus in Davie will serve the population belt between Oakland Park Boulevard and the Dania-Cut-off Canal, the north campus in Coconut Creek will serve the population north of Oakland Park Boulevard north to the Palm Beach County line, the south campus, the site of which is yet to be selected, will serve the population from the Dania Cut-off Ca- nal south to the Dade County line. However, any student may enroll for courses at any campus or at all the campuses. Regis- tration will be accomplished through a central computer with satellite operations at the various campuses and centers. Em- phasis is being placed on serving people. The central campus is now experiencing a face lifting that should make it a really beautiful one. A few buildings are planned for it in order for it to be complete and adequate to serve approximately 9,000 full-time equivalent students in 1978-79. The north campus will be approximately the same size and the south campus will serve 4,000 for the same date. Currently, facilities are being built on the north campus. A Hollywood Center adjoins the Hollywood Memorial Hospital on johnson Street in Hollywood. This facility was made available by the Hospital Board and was renovated by the College. lt is a very fine facility and can serve several hundred students enrolled in both specialized allied health and general courses. Classes are also being conducted in Pompano Beach and Margate in facilities leased from St. Martin in the Fields Episcopal Church, Temple Sholom, and the First Baptist Church of Margate. Likewise, classes are being taught at North- east High School, Fire Station on Sunrise Boulevard, and the City Hall Annex in Fort Lauderdale. An additional several hundred students in banking courses are taught in various bank buildings through the county. Almost 1,700 students are served in these locations. VI IO ED Emphasis is being placed on serving the needs of the listrict's population and at locations which are convenient 1d accessible. At the same time that people are being served, ,arious committees, faculty personnel, administrators and staff l'e studying, analyzing and planning to meet needs not yet izrved. l A mobile unit is now fully staffed and will be at various lmcations throughout the District in order to serve in various r . ,. f l U Af lt l . s 4 3 .Q s u-Lg-1 - capacities: counseling, advising, registering, and providing in- formation. Broward Community College is in a dynamic period of development with incredible opportunities and possibilities. Both the students and the faculty, staff, and administration approach new vistas with enthusiastic exhilaration because of the service possibilities in sound educational experiences which can be made available to the community. 2 5 i 1' Broward Community P, College is in a dynamic I period of development - with incredible oppor- ' tunities and possibili- ' ties. 1 l if -W ..v' qu SH:-x 5' -:- 3:5325 51555 5:2251 -: : al 5.1.1-, 11:-:gl F'-Fw 4-si -.-.xx 1515, 2:19.31 ...,.,:, 355553 .

Classes Start, Construction nderway Well, l'm saving on gas. lt's very convenient. I don't have to spend an hour and half just driving to and from college. Instead I can leave later nd get there earlier. Because l'm saving time, that's why! I These are just a couple of typical answers to the ques- lion, Why are you attending BCC North classes this year. -.ittle do these students know that as the first registered North ,ampus students, they are the pioneer students for a new cam- jus which is projected to have a student enrollment of nearly -000 in just five years. Presently the campus itself is non- 'xistent, having just recently begun construction, however, a jwakeshift North Campus, somewhat spread out over North ilroward County, does exist. From the looks of the North campus classroom loca- ons, certainly no one can say that BCC has any religious rejudices or favoritism for any one belief, since the three ocations are a Baptist Church, an Episcopalean Church and a jewish Temple. Actually the First Baptist Church of Margate, t. Martin-in-the-Field Episcopal Church and Temple Shalom .fere selected as classroom sites because each has a reasonably rge classroom complex. In Term Two both Temple Shalom d First Baptist Church of Margate will offer a wide variety if courses. Some fifty classes have been offered including purses in business education, real estate, biology, economics, lnglish, history, mathematics, psychology, sociology, Spanish hd speech. Some teachers scheduled to teach these classes hclude Neda Hill, Maxine Schenks, Hamilton Crowell and jewis Warwick. About 50 percent of the classes are night llasses, offered from 7 to I0 p.m., resulting in a large number Hi working students enrolled in the classes. As of yet, student opinion toward BCC expansion ranges om indifference to lt's about time. Because most of the -:udents will be long gone by the time construction is com- lete, they feel land plausibly soj that the new campus has efinitely come along at the right time, but there is no excite- ment or overwhelming delight over the prospect of a sparkling new campus. I suppose most of us jincluding a certain author of a new campus story who happens to live less than five miles from the proposed new campus location, but has to drive al- most thirty miles to get to the current Central Campusj feel a twinge of envy for those lucky souls who will attend BCC- North. Nevertheless, BCC expansion is imperative. An enroll- ment of 7500 students, an increase of 1500 from last year, indicates this need quite explicitly. Broward will join Miami- Dade junior College, St. Petersburg junior College and Brevard junior College as the only junior colleges in Florida with more than a single branch. The third proposed BCC Campus has been selected, but its site will be in Hollywood, making it BCC-South. Its expected completion date has been set in I974 and in Term Two a number of South Campus courses have been offered. The site for the north campus is located at Hammon-ville Road and the Florida State Turnpike in the growing commun- ity of Coconut Creek. Directly south and west of the proposed location are residential areas built in a series of interconnecting waterways. One of these canals, Coconut Creek Canal, cuts across the campus site forming an island with the Palmetto Waterway upon which a portion of the II4 acre campus prop- erty is located. Admittance to the campus during the initial phase of development will be from Hammond-ville Road, al- though later routes for access to the college are also being constructed. Upon completion, the campuses acres will be sub- divided thuslyg 40 acres for roads and parking facilities to accommodate 4000 vehicles, 40 acres for physical education, six and one half acres for the buildings, four acres will simply be canal and 23 acres of attractive landscape, pedestrian walk- way and courtyards, as well as any other required facilities. Directly in the center of the campus will be the building com- plex, while the physical education fields will border the east- ern perimeter of the campus, facing a line of attractive pine trees bounding the turnpike. lr i i l 4 l l is la I To improve drainage in the area, a new canal will be dug around the proposed site for the building which will create a small lake on one side, and will convert the building site into an island. A series of automobile and pedestrian bridges will be constructed for students to reach the classrooms from the parking area or the physical education fields. ln mid-October the first permanent building was begun at the north edge of the campus site, by the Ray-Cliff Con- struction Company. This structure is the interim classroom building which will serve as a temporary classroom location when completed April, 1971. Hopefully, the the fall of 1971, the first central classroom complex will be completed provid- ing occupancy for another five hundred students. The 1972-73 year should bring 1500 students to BCC north as the campus development continues until the culmination of the construc- tion and 6000 students are enrolled. The Perkins and Will Corporation was the architectural corporation that designed the modern and picturesque north campus. O I LQ. l AI K ' .w. . '. ,rj 4 MFT! Ii M If ff .

Some people might tend to feel they are violations of their human rights. However, I think the drug prob- lem is serious enough that sometimes you have to do things because of the problems. During the war we took jap- anese and put them in camps. Whether it was right or wrong, it's history now. We did it because we were afraid of a problem or thought it was a problem. The drug problem is very serious, and one reason it has grown as big as it has is because we've had so many pit- falls, so many errors where someone using drugs can get away with it, legal loopholes we call them. Mr. Donald O. Schultz, a police- man in Orange, California for five years and an award winner of the Cert- ificate of Recognition by the Police Conference of New York, Certificate of Commendation from the National Police Officers Association of Amer- ica, Merit Award winner from the U. S. Federation of Police, and the Out- standing Achievement Award from the Orange County Peace Officers Association is a new instructor of Po- lice Science at BCC. We've gone through 20 to 25 years of listening to liberal idiots tell us we can stop racial problems by giv- ing them money and stop school prob- Iems by letting the kids do what they want to do, said Schultz. He went on to say that liberals have said for some 20 to 25 years that permissiveness is my right as an indivi- dual. I don't care what one million people suffer because of what I may do but this is my personal right. Schultz feels searching houses without warrants is a step in the right direction. Many times I couldn't go into a place where we knew drugs were being used. We'd go through the long legal process of getting a warrant and by the time we got it the parties were over. The new law is a benefit for our society. Donald Schultz feels that the gov- ernment is finally realizing that it is their job to protect the majority of people from the minority of criminals. For years we have said it is better to let a thousand criminals go than to prosecute one man and maybe this is right, but the majority must be pro- tected, he said. The National Policeman Award was given to Schultz after he cleaned up his city of Orange. I found the biggest crooks in my city to be in the administration. After I received my Masters Degree l did a lot of research- ' Q' Q' Q 0 s ' . s , o :Aff 0,-,nov .fg -:nga 00 1 . .-. . 9. ,O . .- . .. D o - 4' 99 'lp' .'.l Q' .'.3'. fuk' 'Q -. u' - Q .

The City Manager of I8 years was forced to resign along with the Chief of Police, Assistant Chief of Police, some Lieutenants, a Captain, the traf- fic sergeant, etc ...... l found them to be fencing stolen merchandise and the biggest thing I had on them was ticket fixing, because I had documents to establish what they had done. They had fixed over 4,800 citations in less than three years. Some of the transactions were political pull and others cash. After Schultz corrected the wrong in Orange he took over a personnel job under Wells Fargo. This was really a stepping stone for my teaching ca- reer, said Schultz. My goal has al- ways been teaching and I wanted to work in a top security program where I would personally know about it in- stead of reading about it out of some book. Wells Fargo has top securities. They have everything from bank guards to undercover people. While on the police force in Or- ange County, Schultz attended a pop festival. Approximately 5,000 kids vvere staging a sleep in at a pop festival mvernight. I let my beard grow for 2 days and I and my friend picked up a guitar and a bottle of wine and were :vidently accepted by the kids. We vere able to secure a position right in he middle of the group and saw that lrugs were being openly sold there. There was nothing we could do iecause you just don't arrest 5,000 ' H ids. lt's got to the point now where nolicemen can't do that much about lnarijuana smokers, but worry more :bout hard drugs like Heroin and Co- 1aine. l Schultz feels the new laws on peo- jle caught with a marijuana cigarette lre more appropriate. llf you are .aught with a joint on your person lnd you're just a user, it's usually lrased from your record after a year.j Q lt's pretty hard to condemn the lids using marijuana when some top eople in the cities are fronts for the tu afar. l When questioned on his views of lfire tapping, Schultz had this to say, rWe're in a dilemma in our country lfhere one individual's personal free- rom violates the freedom and ability o have safety of the home for thou- lands. l Take out and out communists yho spend every waking minute plan- ling the overthrow of our government. ihis crime far over rides his personal teedom of using his phone without omeone listening in. Now as far as tapping wires to et the warrant for petty theft or lbmething along those lines, l don't :el it's right. But for treason and mur- er I would say it's more than accept- ble. , Shultz explained the Chicago riots i this way, Newspapers are out to iell their papers. lf they can show a H7ylL'l'L' ll.'tlN llfjlflllltj wc' tould do bctuzm' you jus! dfllllf tlnusl 5, OOO kids. student throwing a brick this isn't news because he's a citizen, and no matter what the student does he's still a citizen. But if they can show a po- liceman with a baton up in the air like he's going to hit or does hit someone then this is news because he sup- posedly is a representative of the Law. Newspapers are notorious for being anti-police. This is how they sell news and magazines. They look direct- ly at what the police are doing and not too many of them show the other side, of why the policemen did what they did ln Chicago a legal body wanted to have a convention and the protest- ors were preventing this. The police re- ceived orders to protect the confer- ence against those that would cause problems. Now the police were there to protect and maintain the safety of all those involved and this included the protestors. The protestors set the way things are going to be. The police do nothing but hold a certain line. The students judge whether there's going to be a conflict or protest by breaking those lines . . . l feel Mayor Daly handled the sit- uation right and again,l lay fault in the news media who, weeks ahead of time, practically advertized and invited the people who wanted to throw bricks to come. Mr, Schultz spoke strongly on the SDS and Black Panther Movement. The Black Panthers, and SDS are ene- mies of the student. They want the complete destruction of the American system of schools. There's not a shad- ow of doubt in my mind that Com- munists are behind these movements lending their complete support. There is little difference between the Red Book lCommunist Mani- festol and the goals set forth in the platform of the Black Panthers. These kids are being led astray because racial prejudice in Russia makes ours look like nothing. SDS and Black Panthers are ad- versaries of the American system of government and we should infiltrate them attaining information and indi- vidual arrests as soon as possible. Mr. Schultz found his job as a po- liceman most rewarding. It was won- derful to come home at night and be able to say l've done something to help someone today. Whether it was solving quarrels between neighbors, giving directions or medical aid, or counseling marital problems. By the way, our professor of Police Science also delivered a baby boy all by him- self. Oh the woes of a policeman. Psychiatry is the branch of med- icine concerned with investigating and treating mental illness. Statistics show mental patients occupy about 1l2 of the hospital beds in the U. S. Doctors estimate that 10 of every 100 adults will seek psychiatric help at some time. Edith West, head of the Nursing department, comes to BCC with many years of experience behind her. Mrs. West received her Masters in Psychi- atric Nursing from Boston University, taught Nursing Education at the Uni- versity of Miami for eight years, and worked as Director of Nursing at the South Florida State Hospital since 1967. While Director of Nursing at the State Hospital, Mrs. West directed some 500 to 600 Nursing employees. This was quite a job since nurses were on duty round the clock. The South Florida State Hospital houses about 1700 patients, said Mrs. West. The patients come to us through various ways though usually through the courts. We have a few who voluntarily enter though not many. Some patients are sent by the criminal courts and these patients have committed some crime, lsuch as writ- ing bad checks, rape, murderl against society. These patients have to be guarded and more security precautions taken for them, said Mrs. West. A great deal of effort goes into patrolling the whereabouts of these particular patients since the grounds are spread out and many have to be transported from one area to another. This can tie up a lot of people. There are no cut and dry rules to psychiatry. it is what you experience in Contact with the patient and how you can help him communicate. +5 ing L- Some patients, identified by blue cards, can come and go around the ground unescorted, and some are al- lowed to leave the grounds. This is not a jail, said Mrs. West. The hospital is not fenced in, we don't have guards, or carry any fire- arms. lf the patient wants to escape he can. Now of course we have locked areas and everybody has assigned keys and are responsible for these areas. However, in transporting the patients to the dining room and different ther- apies, they could run away from the grounds. We, of course, have had son escapes but these are usually returnt rapidly by police. The State Hospitals are paid f by the government and the majority patients do not pay. Those who a finacially able pay approximate S325 a month for their care. There a four State Hospitals in Florida: one Arcade, jacksonville, Chattahooch and Broward. Before Kirk cut the hospi' funds, supplies were needed and n available. We wanted air conditio ing for the patients, said Mrs. We and we didn't have adequate funds repair the buildings. After Kirk cut the State Hospi' funds, they don't have any extra that is for sure, said Mrs. West. Thirteen psychiatrists are a pointed at the S.F.S.H. because only Limited number of positions a opened for hire, as set by the Divisii of Health. Mrs. West had patient conta while at the State Hospital, though n on a consistent basis. She was involv with patients more as an instructor the University of Miami. Working with patients is quite rewarding experience, replied M West. There are no cut and dry ru to psychiatry. lt's what you expe ence in contact with the patient a how you can help him communica A nurse's job is to help the patie find helpful way to relate to his env onment.

H .-- Q s... -s .n -545.0 s 'gn-' When questioned on the percent- age of patients returning to the Institu- ltion, Mrs. West replied, Many of our laatients do come back. But mental ill- l ess is like a cardiac problem. You go n for an immediate cardiac attack, nd you may return to your home. j But if you're placed in another stressful situation you may have to re- turn to the hospital on an emergency basis. So we don't look at a patient as being forever cured. They get better and regroup, so to speak, and then go back and function in the community. 1 lf the community is a stressful situation and it doesn't provide for ltheir needs, they will return to the hospital. This doesn't disturb me. I don't believe it disturbs too many peo- ple. The state hospital is like a first aid station where the patient can come back and receive support and kreatment and then go back to the community again. After being in a mental institution the patients records clearly show it. Some places will not accept former patients of mental institutions, said Mrs. West. 'LMany patients feel they cannot be truthful about their former illness or the job will be turned down, and this is often true. These people, depending on what job it is, can function quite well and should be given the opportunity by the community. lf you don't give them a chance they are always going to be in the State Hospital. And of course the more they are in the hospi- tal the more they are on the taxpayers role. There are many different signs of an emotional breakdown in a person. According to Mrs. West a person may become very withdrawn and isolated. He may perform in a bizarre fashion or stay in his room all day. The person may be extremely nervous and afraid. Or to the people around him there might seem to be a sudden change in behaviour, though the process has been going on over a period of time. There are two types of patients, replied Mrs. West. There are those that withdraw and refuse to communi- cate, and those that seem to confront you and want to talk to you about everything. I don't feel uncomfortable around those that don't communicate because there are other ways to ex- press yourself than verbally. A nurse working with the mentally ill should not be overly anxious, but wait for a response from the patient. Most patients are not actively but subtly hostile, said Mrs. West. Those that are actively hostile are controlled by medication. Getting to know the patient and how he will react to you is the most important thing. You have to know when you're causing too much anxiety and making the patient uncomfort- able, and why the anxiety is being caused. l li I 'urn 'LII K... , 0 Q 5 Q ' a'0 .Q . ug- A. a X 'J' 'J ' ef-'f f':'. 0 e.. no., .

The Panama Canal fulfilled man's dreams of a short route to the Pacific ports from the Atlantic Ocean. Richard Keigly, a native of Pan- ama, fulfilled BCC's need for a Geoli ogy teacher when he responded to their calling. We have only one major store, one high school, and one college in the Panama Canal, said Keigly. Every- thing there is government operated. The canal is run by the Panama City Company and 10011 of the stock is owned by the Secretary of Army who supposedly operates it. The Panama Canal is a ten by fifty mile strip, and a territory of the U. S. The treaty between the two countries, gives the Panamanians sovereignty and perpetuity. However there is a lot of controversy going on in Panama over whether the U. S. should have the right to sovereignty over land belong- ing to another country forever, said Keigly. Richard Keigly was born in the Canal Zone but left there after high school because, the college was not known for its high academic standing but tended toward vocational appren- ticeshipf' He attended Stetson, Flor- ida State and University of Wyoming. I find life in the U. S. far more hectic than in the Panama Canal. Since the Canal is government controlled you don't have to worry about prices because everything is lower. The medi- cal expenses are so cheap, they might as well be free. Once l broke my hand and had to have it reset and it cost me all of l3l7.00. Mr. Keigly finds the wall to I 'iii I if i Q O Oli!!! Iii!! D Q if U ICQ!!! wall people in the U. S. rather unpleas ant at times in comparison with the 50,000 population in Panama. Panama is completely differen from the U. S., said Keigly. lt is: socialist country and has a few ricl people and a whole lot of poor people The people who are poor usually farm earning anywhere from 30 to 40 cent a day. The people in the Republic art very different being culturally Blacl Latin Americans. The Panamanians art far more emotional than American and this can be refreshing but some times carried away. Before coming to BCC, Keigly wa interning at Tallahassee lr. Collegl when his advisor, a parachute jumper broke his hip and Keigly had to tak over the class for the remaining quar 3 ST ........... ter. ln Geology l try to teach my stu- lents to understand our earth, to under- tand what they see and how beautiful :all is so perhaps they'll become more onservative minded, said Keigly. This is especially important in South 'lorida where a lot of people are con- erned about the future water supply. 'he destroying of the Everglades and ll the newly constructed canals could xtremely damage Florida's water sup- ly. H Keigly feels the biggest danger of ollution is in people's reliance on fechnology to pull them out of the lroblems they cause. There's going to we a time, and it may not be too far in fie future that man will go past the loint that our present technology can Ive, said Keigly. I think the problem is getting lretty bad when Los Angeles has llarms in the schools that ring when he pollution level gets too high and he students must run to the class- boms and remain inside. I think the problem's getting pretty bad when Los Angeles has alarms in the schools that ring when the pollution level gets too high, and the students must run to the classrooms and remain inside. l i Q 0 Q Q Q Q I O I 0 0 U Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q 0 Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q 0 O O O O O 0 Q O Q Q Q Q Q 0 Q 0 Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q 0 Q g.g.g.g.q.g i.l.l.l.i'l Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q l O 0 l ECOLOGY NOW!

New Mexico, land of the lace mantillas, corn meal tortillas, bright hued pottery and the bullfights. Land of excitement where the Indian, Mexi- can, and Anglo Saxon live peacefully, looking ever ahead to the progressive future and lingering gently on a past age known to the ancient ways. Luther I. Henderson, a native of Florida and new lvlath instructor, at- tended the University of New Mexico. I wanted to explore and see what dif- ferent schools were like, he said. The school was small and ap- proximately l200 attended. The stu- dents seemed more conscientious than at other schools l'd attended and I be- lieve it was because they were very se- lective of the students admitted. Henderson felt the variety of for- eigners on the faculty was also an as- set. We had teachers from Germany, Switzerland, japan and China, said Henderson. The Atomic Testing Center was near the University of New Mexico where recruitments finishing comple- tion of their projects often came to teach. ln New Mexico they have a dual language: American and Spanish, spoke Henderson. They have predom- inantly Spanish speaking schools and predominantly American speaking schools. They try to divide it up so students might go to the Spanish school perhaps ninth and tenth grades and the English speaking school eleventh and twelth grades. The first atomic bomb testing was made in New Mexico during the l940's. Henderson worked on a Botany project that was continued yearly through a university project. The students studied the effects on plant life caused by the force of the atomic bomb. Back then of course the atomic bomb was considerably less forceful than it is today. At the time of its test- ing in the l940's, it pulverized the rocks in a circle radius of about 100 yards from the center of the blast, said Henderson. ln Botany we compared the ef- fects of radiation on different plant life. The general consensus is that the plantlife is growing back. lt's not like it was before the blast, but the cover- ing is growing back . . . .gifti- -fk 5335: rf?-1 .- -5- .g '35 Q ?tS?235?33r. 4'2L,.j.', ' 31f.g.:gSjS7 0 nt- -,.:.

Kempton, French teacher and head of Modern Languages Department. Kempton feels it is not easy to be of one's time: This would mean one would have to be well-versed in the changes that are occurring, in terms of geography, economic or international relations. Movement from life itself as a self-sufficient individual to that of an interdependent relationship, is not easy in a highly complex and industri- alized civilization, where man per- forms more as part of a team, or as a cog in the total operation. Kempton has been teaching since 1936 with interludes in which he en- gaged in social work abroad and in this country. He is a charter member of the teaching staff at Broward Community College, which started in the barracks of the naval training station at the in- ternational airport. He was deep in a plumbing project at Green Tops, his summer home in New Hampshire, when he received a call from Dr. Rush- ing asking him to teach at the new junior College in Fort Lauderdale. From that time to the present, he feels, has been a very satisfactory and satisfying experience. Growing up in a farming area, it is his belief that life would not have been rounded out in a way that would have been satisfactory to him had he not had a place to work with his hands, in a climate that was native to him A New Hampshire. , 1 :J l ' l Perhaps this goes back to some ex- tent to the old saying, Those who can, do and those that cannr-t, teach. Kempton never accepted that edict but it remained as a sort of burr which alternately puzzled and bothered him. He is now convinced that One can teach and do. A person may not do as well or as efficiently the first time but, still, by doing he can get better. There is another axiom that Kempton abides by and that is that one cannot do everything. lt is a wise man that realizes if he has a compli- cated electrical problem not to try sol- ving it himself but to get a specialist in the field, just as a plumber would not be expected to solve the orthograph- ical peculiarities of the first conjug- ation ofa French verb. To be a man of his time and yet retain old world courtesy and charm comes easily to Will Kempton. In the classroom the iron hand in the velvet glove maintains order and improves French accents in a friendly and re- laxed atmosphere. his summer Kempton decided to return to France, his first trip since 1958, to renew old acquantainces there and to return to school to keep that flawless French accent perfected. He visited the town of Corcieux where he stayed for a few days visiting friends. He had not been there since the town was completely levelled by the Germans in the fall of 194-4, per- haps because it was the regional head- quarters of the French Resistance Movement. The church is now restored and rebuilt and the bells were playing while he was there. Corcieux was adopted by American Aid to France which helped to rebuild the town, as well as other bombed-out commun- ities. Next camc a railroad trip around France. The French railroads have a circular ticket for about S60 which al- lows one to travel all around the pe- rimeter of France, about 3000 Km. He visited Nice, Marseilles, Biarritz and Bordeaux. A walking tour of Paris for about three days was next and he thoroughly enjoyed becoming re- acquainted with the city. Kempton had decided to take a summer course in the French language and accordingly made his way down to the lnstitut de Touraine at Tours. This lnstitut, part of the Universite de Poitiers, has no entrance requirements whatsoever for entering and is entirely for the study of the French language and literature. They seem to be partic- ularly pleased to have foreigners at- tend as there were students there from japan, Sweden and Germany. Anyone planning on spending a summer in France would do well to make the trip to Tours and check on the French courses available at the ln- stitut. One can enter at anytime for as short a period as two weeks, four weeks, a semester, a year, with the ex- ception of the very beginning level. These students must start at the begin- ning of a sequence but may continue through as long as they want to. For the beginning students they use the Mauger book that we use here at Broward Community College. To en- roll in the lnstitut de Touraine for four weeks would cost l45 francs, for two weeks about 90 francs. That would be just under S30 in American currency. lt is possible for vacationers with plenty of time and a desire to improve their French, just to drop in and enroll at the lnstitut without prior notice. However, to ensure reasonable living accommodations, possible in the gov- ernment subsidized housing, it is wise to make reservations. Student meals cost about one franc-60 centimes per meal, which is about 301 American. Meal tickets are purchased ahead of time and are punched on admittance to a dining hall, which are part of the city's devel- opment plan. After getting your ticket punched, you take a seat at tables laid for eight and you are served as part of a group. A large plate of thick chunks of crusty French bread is placed on the table, then a tureen of soup, a plateau of vegetables or beef stew for the main dish and an apple, orange or banana for dessert. When Kempton visisted a dining hall he noticed that his compan- ions, all medical students, were drink- ing water with ice cubes instead of the usual wine. Instead of mineral water it was water from the robinet ifaucetl, so there goes the myth about drinking French water. There are five or six levels of courses at the Institut de Touraine, one for beginning beginners, then a second course for them, the Cours- Mauger and the Cours Mauger de Francais. Kempton decided to take the Cour Superieur which is very advanced and the most challenging. From Monday to Saturday Kempton's mornings were filled with dictees, taking dictation in French and lectures called Hexplicetion du- texte, which included a careful ana-, lysis of the material of the text underl consideration. Another activity was French grammatical structures, cover-l ing the political scene and winding up the week with folk singing on Satur-i days, with perhaps a trip to Paris on Sunday. Kempton found the whole exper- ience at Tours very rewarding. One ofj the rich parts of the program was the: city itself, the old and the new. Great' skyscrapers coming out over the pe- rimeter of the city and inside a nest oft medieval structures. Tours is very cos- mopolitan with about 30,000 students in attendance. There was also the Academie d'Orlean and the Academie de Pointiers, both with facilities in Tours. The whole city and surrounding countryside is a laboratory, one moves from the classroom, not amy from the language, but right back into it. ny American who might want to attend school but uncertain of his French, would first go to the Alliance Francais on the Boulevard Raspail in Paris or similar school, to study French for a semester or so before at- tending the lectures at the lnstitut. Older students attend in increas- ing numbers and there is some indi- cation that the community college concept is becoming more popular in France. Traditionally it has been pos- sible for any citizen to go on to a igher education with or without 'edit. The University of Paris is al- ays open for lectures. Kempton and his wife, Mary, have iree children, Chris 17, Martha 15, id Laurie ll. Chris travelled with his mily to France when he was three onths old. He was there for five :ars and attended Ecole Maternelle 're-kindergartenl dressed in a little blier lapronl over a blue uniform. wris was there all day with a lun- ieon served at school. He became rite French, in fact he spoke very Jent French. y Suggesting that Chris is not so flu- pt today, Kempton explained the rea- ln for this, especially among children hose parents are attached to the con- lar service, diplomatic corps or who e with major companies overseas. A Jung child is very resilent about larning a language and he will adopt e new language with great facility, lore so than adults. However, the Iiild is very susceptible to his own lvironment and when he returns to lrnerica, he does not want anything to iparate him from his peers. He is ,ling to conform and he will drop the ireign language because it makes him lfferentf' This is true, with some rare lceptions, of all the cases Kempton is noticed. i Nlartha Kempton was actually wrn in Nice, which makes her a icoise. She could elect at 21 to be- lme a French citizen or remain an lnerican. She was nationalized at the fnerican consulate in Nice. While the .pmptons were in France, the French ivernment was very much interested l her health program, periodic in- iections, check-ups and shots. There la rule in France that if a child does lit appear for the health check, they All come for him. This rule applied giether you were French, German, bttentot-Bushman or American. l Kempton feels that perhaps too any false claims have been made for l study of foreign languages. All too ,en students will say their only aim to become a rapid translator at the wited Nations or similar employ- ent. The skills for these jobs must be '!

An interpretor, a linguist with very rapid delivery, talented in two or three languages, is usually born into that language environment. However, there are many more reasons for studying a foreign language including enrichment to one's life. One would be not necessarily how much money you are going to make out of it but what kind of framework for life it gives you. In social contacts a know- ledge of a foreign language is most helpful. Then too, communications have become tremendously advanced for a couple of generations, particu- larly in the last decade. We can have dinner in New York and in a few hours find ourselves in France, Germany or Italy. More and more the national gov- ernment, the State Department in par- ticular, recognizes the need for lan- guage fluency on the part of our repre- sentatives abroad. All too often an American is mute in the presence of the foreigner, or if he is not under- stood, simply raises his voice louder or angrily in English, with no better re- sults. lf there ever was a time for study- ing and acquiring skills in a foreign lan- guage, Kempton feels it is now. He mentioned that it is strange just as our communications gap shortens up, the requirements are being lowered at the university level for the study of for- eign languages. He foresees the return of stricter language facility require- ments for university entrance. The Humanities, among which one must in- clude a foreign langauge, are coming back into their own, where they have always played an important part dat- ing from the Renaissance. As part of his final examination at the Institut de Touraine, Kempton had to write an essay defending the state- ment, ll faut etre de son temps, - one must be of his time. There was also a corollary essay, How have you been able to be of your time? lt is possible Will Kempton picked up an A on this one, for he has made the transition easily. Whether it is moving quickly around the classroom with his hand cupped behind his ear, waiting for even the faintest resemblance of a French vowel sound to reach itg or dis- cipling a student, whose fractured French lands him in the Kempton of- fice, he will truly remain a man of his time. One of the newest courses offered in the Fine Arts department is the Commercial Illustration class taught by Mr. john Boase. Mr. Boase ex- plained that a commercial art program was needed because of the increasing number of printers, publishers and new industries in our rapidly- developing area. A professional artist for eighteen years, Mr. Boase is well aware of the problems of both the Commerical Art- ist and the student. He stresses discip- line and hard work as well as talent, and makes no bones about the diffi- culty of the course: Most students want A's, he said, But they'll have to work like heck to get them. How well they do in the class depends on their ability and how much time they devote to it. And look at any current magazine - imagination is the big thing. ,VS There are eight students enrolled in the class, and the atmosphere is re- laxed and informal. A coffee pot sits in a corner, and the students sip coffee as they work. There is no real competi- tion in the class, and they work at their own pace. There are people who tend to un derestimate the Commercial Artist- Mr. Boase says, Anyone that is inter- ested in becoming an illustrator or a commercial artist must have a very strong drive. It's a demanding art form and requires disciplines that are fast disappearing from our society. Many 1 is relaxed and informal. . . ' . . The atmosphere of the class . .

Long be- fore there was a legitimate theatre or language sophisticated enough for dialogue, man's ancestors might have re-enacted the events of the day, per- haps a successful hunt, through panto- mime. Pantomime, the art of acting without spoken dialogue, depends on the actor's bodily movements, ges- tures, and facial expressions to express thoughts and emotions. It isn't as easy as it sounds, there are thousands of subtle shadings of human expression that can be expressed visually . . .and the skilled pantomimist has no dia- logue to bail him out. Pantomime does teach skill in acting, however, and Miss Mullikin is considering making it a pre- requisite to the acting course. -his th- ' a 6 ii' 'll l i l l , pin. , ,-if f S 5. A ST v xlulk ' lf, -Y . XX Miss Mullikin's amateur panto- mimists meet every Monday and Wed- nesday from two to four. Here, they absorb, rather than learn the art of pantomime, for how can one stereo- type an emotion so subtle as love, or one with as many variations as hate? The students learn by doing, and ob- serving. To help develop their observance skills, the ETSI three assignments were animals. The first, an animal as small or smaller than an insect, the second larger than an insect or smaller than a dog, the third larger than a dog, but smaller than a horse. The students ob- served their insects and dogs, and what- ever, and came forth with some un- usual and imaginative results. They ranged from an ameba, to praying mantises, cockroaches, rabbits, chip- munks, kangaroos, horses, and even a clam! Jkt N4 Y. X 'la I W . Each session starts with some limbering and relaxing exercises, and a few games for practice. For ex- ample, at a recent session, the students portrayed different letters of the al- phabet, and even colors. Later, at this same session, some portrayed a person from birth, through childhood, through adulthood, old age, and death. During this semester, students will present two pantomime programs: one for the children of a migrant labor camp, and one for adults. Miss Mul- likin chose the migrant labor camp be- cause the children do not have the opportunities to experience plays, and movies that other children have. The migrant mother and father do not have the time or the money to take their children to see plays, or if they can, they are usually isolated many miles from a theatre or moviehouse. iss:-.iisx .

BCC's Fire Science teacher, Mr. Redmon is quick to point out that Fire-related occupations are not limited to the classic red engines and hoses. Knowledge of potential fire dangers and their prevention is used daily by special investigators for in- surance agencies. Industrial Safety Engineers must plan around inflamma- tory materials and devise the most efficient exit routes according to the type of fire most likely to break out. There are special tactics for forest rangers and fire-spotters, for the smallest town and the largest city. According to Mr. Redmond, a retired Lt. from the New York Fire Dept., BCC started its first class during term ll of 1969, and began its full time operation last year. There are twenty-seven Fire majors going after degrees, awarded after the usual 64 hours. A certificate, however is award- ed after the completion of 30 hours of study. A total of over 80 students meet over the week, coming from as far north as Boca to take part in the train- ing. These men are all professionals, trying to learn as much about their jobs as they can. The Fire-program works to their advantage when promo- tions are being offered in the depart- ments. The courses are divided up into several sections, but everything is taught according to theory rather than a vocational level. After all, Mr. Red- mond says, these men work with the basics everyday. They know what a ladder is, and how to use it. Mr. Red- mond therefore concentrates on pre- ventions, and the applications of knowledge, rescue procedures, acci- dents, and what to do in case of build- ing collapse lwhere the weight of water putting out a top floor will cruch the entire structure. Fire Administration involves Fire Department procedures, the methods of Leadership, ways of upholding morale, and the use of motivation. The courses also teach Arson Investigation and the deadly roles that hazardous chemicals can play. Each city is rated by insurance companies, where, for example, a beginning total of 5000 points is given, and insurance rates are reflected by deficiency points that come from too small a department, too little water, etc. Fires in the south Florida area occur most often during the dry season, when the grass fires start spreading, but there's always the con- stant danger of a cigarette that some- one forgets to put out, or a careless match. The course sometimes concerns itself with more than textbooks, last May the Fire Science Department sponsored a demonstration of explo- sive and arson devices. All the campus buildings were left standing although a bit shaken. The highpoint of the demonstration fan atomic blast simula- tion made from four barrels of explod- ing high-grade petroleumi had to be called off, due to complaints from a mobile park across from the campus. They weren't fired up over the idea. 71:7 t P l mf f 54 few. .. Seminar Seeks Answers if SJ ,..,f' I pi My e A-6 Ni ' I 1 if Who am I? What is the concern of humanity? Why is man here? How will man continue to exist? These are the profound questions explored by the students and teachers participating in BCC's stimulating Social Science Seminar. When asked what the purpose of the seminar is, one would have to say that it is purely for the intellectual enrichment of those who participate, all students and all teachers alike. Perhaps the most interesting as- pect of the seminar is the interaction and relationship of students and teach- ers. No one has final answers. Students and teachers are exploring ideas to- gether on topics ranging anywhere from sex in society to God in the uni- verse. How did it all begin? The semi- nar's existence should be attributed primarily to all of the concerned and inspired teachers in our social science department. But it truly began with the nagging of a few interested psychology students in the fall of last year. Through the efforts of Dr. Paul Cauftield and Mr. Frank Branca the seminar was born. The organization now meets once a week for two hours with no credits, no grades, no brownie points, nothing except the experience of sharing pro- found ideas. The students began by naggingg not rioting, but just asking. 55 QS! '+ 'xxxW s. XX1 f' Nun 1 iii Qbx' :ss mil! I. pug BROS. BCC f .

The Detective Story officially opened the Fall '70 dramatic season. The new addition was sorely need- ed. Before the addition, for example, sets and flats had to be stored in various and inaccessible places under and around the lecture theater. And the cos- tume room was reached only by minor gymnastics and the risk of a fractured skull. Included in the new facility are offices for the dramatic department, a new costume room, two dressing rooms lequipped not only with lights and clos- ets, but lavatories and showersl and an enlarged backstage area. A shop, prop room and storage areas are also included. l l l mfwif Y We M t---. Mm I 34 O ,X I Y F . J LQ Ni N fs' E -H iw' 77 M!!

John Pawlowski, BCC's AAUP President spoke briefly, introducing the distinguished B.C.C. representation which included Dr. Adams and Dr. Ashmore and commen- ding S.G.A. President Joe Grove for his success in obtaining Christian for the forum. He then introduced lVlr. Christian himself, outlining his educa- tional background and many outstand- ing contributions to education in a short, yet impressive synopsis. Alabama-born Christian began his educational career as a athletic direc- tor in Clearwater, Florida. His work brought him to St. Petersburg Junior College, the first junior college in the state. ln 1965 he became Superinten- dent of Public Education in Florida. lHis title has since been changed to State Commissionenl When ques- tioned as to why he is running, Chris- tian gave an appraisal of the numerous achievements Florida has attained in the field of education since he first took office and he proceeded to ex- plain that he desires to continue the various programs he initiated. These program encompass an extensive range in education and include the expan- sion of the state's kindergarten system to all elementary schools lthere were only three in the state previous to his termj. ln the area of junior colleges, Christian's work has resulted in the ad- dition of three new centers. When fur- ther questioned about junior colleges, he explained, Educationwise, l honestly think we have accomplished more in the area of junior colleges than in any other area. He felt that the junior college system in Florida has been recognized as the top in the nation. He backed this up with an im- pressive enrollment figure of 120,000 students. His other accomplishments comprise the construction of a senior university in Orlando, and the building of vocational centers in high schools throughout Florida which turned an optimistic experiment into a successful one. Christian has been especially praised for his expansion of education- al opportunities for exceptional chil- dren. Christian stated the significance of the Commissioner's post by poini out that he works with 900 mill dollars in educational appropriatic and that he is in charge of all the p lic schools in the state. The Comi sioner must work successfully with school board, the state legislators 1 other state officials. He considered 17 years of practical experience education as more than adequate the office. He complimented his ponent, Dr. Fromke, on his fine complishments, but disclosed his I of educational experience failed make him an adequate for the C4 missioner's position. Dr. Christian was accompanied two education officials, Bill C general consultant on the South E ern region in education and E Hason, another educational con: tant. After Christian concluded talk and answered a few prepa questions, the forum floor was opel to the audience. Christian believed that the roli the classroom instructor should not of total domination, but rather he that they should strive to set a od example and should use their in- ence in keeping student behavior thin socially acceptable limitations. felt emphatically that the teacher es have a moral responsibility to the lung, and that truly dedicated chers would never turn their backs itheir students. Christian has four ildren of his own who are currently lching. Although a deeply religious man, l'istian stated, l don't believe l ht to tell a teacher what to be- e, when someone inquired ther he believed teachers should be lliated with some religion. He added that most teachers are religious and do go to church anyway. As far as SDS activities on junior colleges campuses went, Christian re- ported that he had not received any information that would indicate that there was any, but he did not rule out the possibility. ln answer to another question, Christian said that the teachers' salaries in Florida were not yet on the level that would compare with the national consensusj however, Florida was in good standing in the south. When queried on his position on the eighteen-year-old vote he replied, l'm on the record favoring the eighteen-year-old vote. If we can ask 'Nw We fi 1 5' . Q.. 'IX -- lip' 'NT sz xy Vi' them to fight we can ask them to vote. Maturity certainly deserve consider- ation. ln consideration of the sex education controversy, Christian be- lieved that we must face the problem realistically. Such a delicate subiect should be treated with good taste, and he suggested perhaps referring to such courses as health education. Undoubtedly the high point of the entire presentation came when an unsuspecting soul proposed the follow- ing question: What is your opinion of the Kirk administration . Knowing of the rather sticky relationship that Kirk and Christian have had in previous years, everyone was naturally tickled, including lVlr. Christian. He replied smiling, The governor and I have had our problems. On a more serious note he pointed out the fact that Kirk had vetoed more education bills than any other Florida governor. He also point- ed out that when 2500 teachers walk- ed out of their jobs during the teachers' strike, Kirk said, Let 'em go, while he lChristianl had to take the responsibility of finding new teachers to replace them. Taking everything into consider- ation, the first Meet The Candidates Forum was a true success. lt is hoped that the forum idea will be employed in the future by new college students and with new political candidates. l'm on the record favoring the eighteen-year-old vote.

Strikingly different from straight drama, Reader's Theater is group reading of materials in such a way that the general focus is not on the visual presentation but rather on the imagination of the audience. This is mainly because the visual dramatics are played down, allowing less distrac' tion and more attention on the presen- tation. The communication is more di- rect. The first public oral interpreta- tions began in ancient Greece as early as the sixth century B.C. During the Middle Ages, Reader's Theater, as did numerous other art forms, died out. However, it experienced a slow revival, until 1951, when the first Reader's Theater production on Broadway, Don Juan in Hell, came out. Now Reader's Theater is again recognized as an im- portant addition to the creative arts. lt is expanding on a national scale at an impressive rate with South Florida par- ticipating in the expansion. With the departure of BCC's Reader's Theater director, Donald Sunnquist, a youthful new addition to the Speech Department was acquired. Mrs. Julie Wood fthe Mrs. is also a new additionl first became interested in oral reading productions while she was an undergraduate at the Universi- ties of Minnesota and South Dakota. She continued her graduate work at the University of Nebraska, where she wrote her thesis on Fieader's Theater production. Mrs. Wood made the move from Sioux City, Iowa to South Florida to fill the vacant position for an Oral ln- terpretations teacher and Reader's Theater Director here at Broward. This year's Reader's Theater got off to a great start with the production Spoon River Anthology lbased on E. L. Masters' workl which was per- formed here on campus. The following production was an original script called John Doe, P.F.C. . Several other productions are planned for the school year. Reader's Theater is open to everyone. If interested in writing a script or performing in a production, contact Mrs. Wood in the Speech De- partment. ff 4' -.1 4. in N is R F . E . A . 'iv ,A 's 12 xx if ..

No where in the field thletics can there be found such a variety of movements activities within one sport as can be found in gymnas- There are six events in men's competition. The all- gymnast must master free exercise, side horse, still long horse, parallel bars and horizontal bar. Physical attributes required of an all-around gymnast flexibility, strength, endurance, balance, coordina- timing courage and kinesthetic sense. To compete in a man must master all six events. A man who, is a specialist on the side horse could not make olympic team unless he were also very good on the events. Gymnastics got its start last year at B.C.C. through the efforts of Ruth-Ann Hutcheson, John Moulds, Wayne May, Coach John Rumpf and Athletic Director, Rex Brumley. The team consists of nine members at the present time. Wayne Nlay, Dean Gregory and Steve Mellies are all around gymnasts and are on gymnastics scholarships. Other mem- bers of the team are Ken Johnson, David Cefkin, Jim Porter, Paul Gesemeyer, Ralph Gruber and Rich Peters. The first year of competition will be interesting as the first two meets are against National Champion Miami Dade-North. No one on the team has very much competi- tive experience but all have come along well and hope to surprise a few people. ' .

It appears that BCC has 2 of the finest potential and talent in the State of da. Co-Captains for this year are Jerry Ringi, President of lub last year, and Pete Collins, co-captain of the ahan High School team which came in third last year e State Tournament. They should provide the neces- ileadership essential for a truly great team effort and a ling season. Last year with only five men entered, BCC took fourth in the State Tournament at Florida University.

Ierry had a very successful career in the Air Force ling the Freestyle and Greco-Roman Championships at 5 pounds from 1967-69 for the Air Force and was the lSenfice champion in 1969 in both styles. Jerry was the outstanding wrestler of the Sunshine Open tourna- I and the State Collegiate champion at 118 pounds last lThis summer he also set a new National and American h Press record for the 123.5 pounds class of 278.5 ids while placing fourth at that National Tournament. lfete had a fine scholastic year of wrestling in 1969-70 i season placing third in the State Tournament for the second straight year. Pete lost a very close match in the Regional Tournament to Tom Lewis, who later won the title. Derald was another outstanding wrestler for Stranahan High School last season also placing third in the state. Derald, who was co-captain along with Pete, was second in the state tournament in his junior year. John and Bob were both successful wrestlers for Fort Lauderdale High School and add needed strength to the upper weight classes. Other members of the team are: Brad Fox, David Zeion, Joe lVliranti, Fred Lewis, Darrell Piner, Gary Frasier, Jeff Beiffer, Mike Casey and Dennis Caffrey. Competition for the season will be hard and a big chal- lenge as they will meet Florida University, Florida State, Florida A gl lVl, Tampa University, Miami Dade North and South, University of Alabama and Westchester Jr. College from New York State to name a few. The first meet was on November 20th against Tampa University followed by the Georgia Tech. Tournament December 5-6, and the first home meet on December 11 against Florida Tech. After the Christmas break and the Sunshine Open Tournament, the squad will begin the harder duel meets of the season aiming for the State Championship and a trip to the Nationals.

They are confident of a good eason but even more they are optimistic on their chances 1 compete at the Nationals in Hutchinson Kansas. The Seahorses seem to have a well balanced and ex- emely potent team this year, even after their top perform- Greg Samules graduated last year, with eight returning layers, three transfers, some strong junior varsity con- inders and several high school players all looking for a spot h the squad. l Among the top performers for the cagers are, Graham l tson a 6'8 center forward who has quick hands and a ent for sticking close to his opponents. George the l oop Pratt, seems to be able to trap his opponents shot lainst the back boards while Bill Fellows, sometimes known as the Iceman, will break down the opponents defence by his smooth ball handling and playmaking. This then allows Pat Jarvis and Mike Stump to hit with their long shots. Alternating in the forward center spots with Hutson, Stump and Pratt will be Steve Downing, Alex Widmer, Coleman Taylor, and Tony Marion. Alternating with Fel- lows and Jarvis will be Freeman Allen, sometimes known as the Magician, and Art lthe Pistoll Porep. Other prospects working hard for a chance to prove themselves are: John Franzese, Ray Taylor, Ed Rokas, Tom Grajko, Joe Elbrect, Wally Seaman, and Felix Roberts. The Seahorses opened their season on November 10th against Florida Bible College in Miami. After the Christmas Tournament on December 18-19, at Miami Dade North they will be taking their second breath for the second half of the season. HH an HH 311 311 an an an Feb. Feb.

P RELIGION IN I J CATI-IOLICISM . . . H1971 Synod to Probe Priest- hood. This headline was taken from a Catholic newspaper read by millions of Roman Catholics weekly. It is merely a mild indication of the tumultous rev- olution that has steadily rolled through the Catholic Church in the past few years with astounding speed and astounding results. Institutions with the Church, generations old, have undergone change that seems charac- teristic of these contemporary times. Torrid issues of today are bandied about like rash words in a heated argu- ment. One can be a conservative or lib- eral within the Church structure. Needless to say the Catholic Church has been a popular bullseye of crit- icism as well as a subject of consider- able praise for its extensive modifica- tions to the Church framework Con fusion reigns in the process And I am a confused Catholic I am fairly certain that there would be general agreement that prevl ous to the conversion of the Mass from Latin to English Mass was pretty meaningless to most parishoners be cause it was simply not understand able Unless ont proved to be a Latin scholar Mass lotked the relevance and interest required to fully commit one self to a total involvement in ones Q 37 X 1 I I eelasz Iamen trapped wzthm a lzve hand renade and somebody s just pulled the pm by Eugene Spacloni faith. With an English Mass, Catholics could not only comprehend, but they could also participate in a more mean- ingful service. The Roman Catholic Church has always been an institution of durable tradition. Some of this solid tradition has been discarded, although the sur- face scratches are not too deep. Fas- ting rules have been altered, so that individuals can abstain in various ways. The diversity of the changes being in- stituted can be seen in numerous facets that have been touched upon. Even fashion-wise, with the introduc- tion of more comfortable and shorter nun's habits have changes occurred. Truly the past ten years have produced a structural metamorphosis updating the somewhat antiquated organization of the Church resulting in an apropos scheme m the make up of the Church more or less tends to get it all to gether As I have sat inert and watched the multltudinous reforms flash into being I realize that there has been one constant through all of this change It is the most important aspect of any religion whether it be Buddhist Islam or Chr1st1a.n Science it is behef or rather faith not only in the existence of God but faith also in the love of God To say that these are troubled I . . - - I . . . 4' f H ' . l n . . ,, 1 3 , , , A - ' U . . . ! .

When I llok at the ethical debauchery in our livemment and other respected busi- 'iss establishments, as well as the wunt hypocrisy of other world govern- fents, I feel as if I am entrapped with- T a live hand grenade, and somebody's jst pulled the pin. It is during times fe this, when I am down that I doubt Qmt only the existence of God, on the lsis that no God of love would per- lit such widespread corruption, but so I doubt the very sanity of civilized Ian. But ironically I have found that fese troubled times have tended to rengthen my faith in that I clutch to rod in a hopeful sense that all is not cfutile as it seems. Quite recently the Church has Eken strong stands on various pertin- it issues that seem to plague the very uatorny of our society. One such is- le of which the Church has been liite outspoken on, is abortion. I can lpport the Church, on this question mt only as a Catholic but also as a liman being with a vulnerable con- fience. To sever the existence of a po- ,ntial human being seems grossly un- fir. Every human being whether he be ltby, banker or bank robber has that ltural right to a life and to deny that ie, that survival on any grounds is wrong in my view. fl must take into consideration, though, that I am a male therefore I can never know the pressures, ostracism and so on, individ- uals in such a situation do experience. Human beings on the whole, are com- patible to their surroundings. If this were not true the suicide rate would be in the 90th percentile.l The Catholic Church is also great- ly opposed to birth control. Five years ago I might have also countered the concept of birth control, however to- day with a thorough enlightenment of the uncontrolled growth of the masses, I can only question the rationality of such a stand. Perhaps the Church would do better in maintaining a more or less neutral position, not forbidding the use of birth control, but con- versely not openly advocating usage. Thus it would be left up to the discre- tion of the individual. Interdenominational marriages are frowned upon by the Church. How- ever I would not have the slightest qualm about entering into a marriage as such. I feel I possess an accessible, open-minded attitude, and I do not wish to dictate my beliefs to my wife or my child, prison-style. Some of the modernizations of the Church are simply great. Women are becoming a more integral part of the Mass service, for they can now lead the congregation in hymns and read- ings, except for the Gospel and can serve as usherettes. They are still baned from serving as acolytes, even in convents or womenis chapels. One of the best reforms is the greater emphasis on music, which in- cludes the sanctioning of such musical modernization as jazz, rock and soul Masses. Such services have already been experimentally performed with tremendous success. I personally have heard one such Mass and it was quite an experience. One Catholic Church in our community has implemented with excellent response from both young and old church-goers. With guitar- playing sisters, yet! Freedom in the Church is charac- terized by numerous things including changes in the Mass and changes in feelings about celibacy, un-sainting saints. I suppose the most unusual ex- ample of freedom in the Church oc- curred in Massachusetts this past No- vember, when Father Robert F. Orinan, a strong opponent of the war, was elected to the House of Represent- atives, making him the first priest ever elected to Congress. Oh well, Our Father, who art in Congress. . . JUDAISM . . . Judaism has undergone vast changes in the past century. Today, the Jews have one of the newest, and yet oldest of the three Great Reli- gions . With the establishment of the state of Israel, Judaism has been given a vitamin shot comparable to the Pro- phetic Revolution and the writing of the Talmud. Judaism is a religion based on its law, and to a Jew, the Law is his life. There are different degrees of obser- vanceg from the strict Orthodox, who tries to follow each and every ruling, from the greatest to the leastg through Conservatives, who follow those 'laws that are relevent to themg to Reform, the more loose and liberal of the three. However, whether Orthodox, Conser- vative, or Reform, all are bound to- gether by their belief in One God, their love of the Jewish People, and their respect for the Law. The Jewish Concept of salvation, AS I UNDERSTAND IT, is based on charity, brother love, and a firm belief in God. Since it is impossible to do these things only one day a week, Judaism, by necessity is a daily reli- gion. It's ordinances reach every aspect As for my children, I spent many years of my lzfe searching for a relzlgion, so 1 feel I don 't have the right to force my children to be jewish, just because I am. by Jim Mitchell of ones daily life, from waking to sleeping. It is impossible to be half Jewish. fl am not a strict observer of the Law and I still find it a full time thing. I have the greatest admiration and respect for the Orthodox., As for my children, I spent many years of my life searching for a reli- gion, so I feel I don't have the right to force my children to be Jewish, just because I am. I hope they decide in favor of Judaism, but it is up to them. The only restrictions I feel I have the right to are charity, brother love, and a belief in God. I am not the same reli- gion as my parents fmy father is Roman Catholic and my mother is Jewish by belief but not by practice. You might call her Reformj and since they didn't force me, I won't force my children. It wouldn't be Kosher! As for a future, unlimited. We have a habit of tearing the religion down every few centuries, airing it out, improving it, then rebuilding it on the same foundations. The Giving of the Law, The Prophetic Revolution, The Babylonian Exile, Jesus of Naz- arith, the writing of the Talmud,and the Zionist movementg all have con- tributed to the improvement of Judaism. F l I-IRISTIANITY. . . V The up and down of church, reli- ion, philosophy had me so tuckered lut, I gave up. I wasn't the extreme ftheistic existentialist las Shawn, lor the agnostic las Tedj, nor a be- gever las Beccaj. I was removed- grooving on a moment of time, and gever clearly understanding whether hat moment was present, past, or Lltl.ll'C - or just a glomeration of all hree. But through it all I found the iiswerg for you see I was simple gnoughg religion has no place in my mind - Christianity does. Let me ex- llain. 1 Being a Christian without being leligious almost sounds like a contra- 'liction in terms. Christianity is called me of the world's great religions, is it iot? l According to Webster, a religion is ,system of faith and of worship . . . Christianity is certainly that. Q According to Webster, a religion is he service to and adoration of God gxpressed in forms of worship . . . P g Christianity is certainly that, too. , X According to Webster, religion is devotion, fidelity, conscientiousness, ,in awareness or conviction of the exis- tence of a supreme being, which 1 1 i I 3 E 254,311 - D . R- , . ,I : f 5 --9 Many pcoplc have a God, but they keep him small -small cnouglz to fit in the relzgious 'box' they call tlzcir brand of Chris- tianity. by Doloorah Dixon arouses reverence, love, gratitude, the will to obey and serve . . . Christianity is certainly that . . . and more. It is the more that is behind the Book, His Book. The more I was seeking and found. Christianity is more than a reli- gion, because every religion has one basic characteristic. Its followers are trying to reach God, find God, please God through their owm efforts. Reli- gions reach up toward God. Christian- ity is God reaching down to man. Christianity claims that men have not found God, but that God has found them. To some this is a crushing blow, They prefer religious effort - dealing with God on their own terms. This puts them in control. They feel good about being religiousf' Christianity, however, is not reli- gious striving. To practice Christianity is to re- spond to what God has done for you. The Christian life is a relationship with God, not a religious treadmill. Many Christians, however, behave like they really don't believe this. With form, formalish, ritual, legalism, rules, sys- tems and formulas we attempt to re- duce Christianity to a religion-a system of some kind where works are really substituted for faith and trust, where law takes precedence over grace. We will not necessarily adrnit this, but it's true nonetheless. Instead of re- sponding to God's love we reach out for it- and neatly keep God at arms length while we do so. But God will not stay at arms length. When He comes into your life, He demands all of it. Away with reli- gious pretense and pontificating. Away with your religious game called church that you play so well every Sunday. God wants all of you - your heart, your soul, your body - as a living sacrifice to Him. Alrightg some of you may think you already have this, some may think you have one better. Okay, so let me pose one question. Where do we put our faith? Is it dead or alive. An odd question . . . or is it? Lets define terms. A person's faith is what he believes: the guiding principles and I hope for his life. Dead faith is the kind that rests on little more than an intellectual system, dry and dusty credos, meaningless dogmas that have little to do with life as it really is. A live faith is just the opposite. To have a living faith means more than mental assent to a statement of beliefs. A living faith puts you in touch with God. A living faith has power. ln the book of Romans Paul wasted no time in getting around to why Christianity is a living faith. For I am not ashamed of the gos- pel of Christ: for it is the power of God into salvation to everyone that believethg to the jew first, and also to the Greek. Paul was ready to share the gospel A the Good News - because he knew that here was power. The gospel gives meaning to life. It can deliver the goods. In Paul's day, men constantly sought salvation - peace of mind and heart, peace for their souls. Men still seek salvation today, but somehow they miss the real message of the gos- pel. In far too many circles Christian- ity has been reduced to another reli- gion, complete with rituals, rules, and all necessary accounterments to reach up to God. But this is not the gospel. There are several things the gospel is not. The gospel is not laws and bur- dens. lt is not a religious list of you can't do this . . . you can't do that . . . hands off . . . mustn't touch . . . do this or die. Nor is the gospel man-made ideas. Many people have a God, but they keep him small- small enough to fit in the religious box they call their brand of Christianity. And the gospel is not anti- intellectual, another claim made by some who prefer a sophisticated reli- gion that is worthy of one's intelli- gence. You don't have to assassinate your brains to be a Christian. The gospel is good news from God in jesus Christ. Through Christ, God the creator, involved himself with man, His creation. In the gospel, God is saying to man I love youg the bur- den if off your back. I have reached down to do something for you. Christ died for your sin, your guilt, your inadequacy. And Christ rose again. He lives and if your personal faith is in Him, you live also. One more point: The gospel is for undeserving sinners Qsee Romans 1:51. That is what makes it such good news. It's for those who know they can't reach up to God on their religious own, for those who are even a little bit desperate. The gospel is not religion The gospel is Christianity -faith i and commitment to a Person -Jesu Christ. For l am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God into salvation to everyone that believeth. . THEISM . . .

For in me are the answers lto all the questions I could ever ask. I lean find the answers simply by apply- ling my situation to my philosophy. telligent theories on the creation of the universe have been proposed, how- ever until one of them has been proven I shall withhold my judgement. My feelings on the subject of life after death are on the same lines. I have never talked to anyone who has come back from the dead, nor do I know anyone who has. Therefore, I will limit my beliefs to more observ- able phenomena. I will state right now that I am completely prepared to ac- cept the possibility that I just might rot, , es l There seem to be more atheists around these days. I ran across one the other day, he and I began discussing the reasons for the new-found popular- ity of atheism. We decided that the fact that many years ago people were executed or ostracised for their individ- ualism, might have had some effect on the number of people who chose to become publicly involved in anything so controversial. Therefore, any count of atheists before the twentieth cen- tury would be inaccurate due to the number of people who would have lied. It is very interesting to note that our society has promulgated the num- ber of atheists. First, we have grown more willing to accept the ideas of others. You will notice that although our society could be more open- minded, it is still the most liberal in the history of the world. Secondly, in the complex social structure that one finds in this world it becomes increas- ingly difficult to accept traditional be- liefs of what is right and what is wrong, and what you should and should not live for. Our world is in a state of flux, and at this time, the man who can say he knows just what is going on in this mess we live in, is either lying or insane. just as banish- ment and execution did not complete- ly eliminate atheism, neither does tol- erance encourage it. Atheism is a state of mind, the influence comes from within. I have been asked how I would raise my children, and what basis would I give them for strength of character. Again, I state that the basis of character is in the mind, it comes from within. My children will have the opportunity to experience religion, when they are old enough to reason out what is going on. I shall answer their questions pertaining to death and why people believe in God and why people go to church: whether God exists or not I shall leave up to them. My children will be free to pick and choose, because once they reach this age they will be old enough to decide which religion, if any, will have value to them. Most of you were brought up, from the time of birth, to believe in your particular religion. I would esti- mate that as many as half of the people reading this article have never questioned their beliefs, I am not saying deny them. These beliefs were instilled in your brains before you were old enough to question them or to fight back. You were conditioned, indoctrinated, and brainwashed, to hold these beliefs. It seems that none escape and few survive this childhood tragedy. This is in all probability, what you will do, or are doing to your chil- dren now. I hold that it is wrong to tamper with the mind of a human being. If you ever feel it necessary to have someone who will echo your be- liefs and ideas, don't have a child . . . get a parrot. I do not eat little children, or kill defenseless animals. I am not the bogey-man. Yet, from the look of ab- solute horror on the faces of some people after being informed of my reli- gious convictions, you would think that I had burned the Pope and Billy Graham on one stake, for national television. It is my opinion that I have the responsibility to enjoy my life. I can make it anything I want it to be through the use of my mind. My mind is my greatest asset, I feel it is my obli- gation to use it to it's greatest advan- tage. I can be anything and anyone I want, if I fail it will be my fault, and I alone will face the consequences. My atheism comes from a strength or stub- bornness tif you willl of character. I live. Do I sound heathen and savage to you? Do you wonder why your God has not struck me down? Do you won- der howl can be happy without a God to lean on? just think about it. If this article has intrigued you, or incensed you, and you would like to discuss the subject with me further, I can be reached almost any day of the week in the Publications Office. I will be happy to discuss my ideas or yours. However, I am leaving after this term, so if you have decided now that you hate me, and you want me to know it, please see me before the end of term I. BA HM The Balzaz' faith teaches that there zs only one God, and that the prophets ofall the major world relzgions were messengers from that same God. by Richard Leicht The three eyed Blipians, on re- turning to their home planet, turned in their report on the planet Earth to the head blip. His girts wavered heavily as he read, but suddenly all but one stop- ped, beaming with interest as he came to the section on Earthly superstitions. According to the report the earth creatures worshiped some several thou- sand deities. The make-up of each band of worshippers depended on their ethnic and racial groups, and sometimes on their class status. Each group thought that their god and form of worship was the only true one, and t at all non believers of other iups were doomed to an uncharted ion, sometimes called Hell, and :ignated as down, perhaps under :ir planet's surface, a fiery pit. The part that the head Blip found interesting was that these groups d so much in common. They all be- ved that there was only one true rd, their own. They all believed that s god communicated with them 'ough a messenger, sometimes called prophet, and curiously their religious tories agreed on many basic facts, rld-engulfing floods for instance. me even admitted that they were ts of other religions, but disagree on 'nor points. And yet they persecuted each ter, and fought wars with each ter. The head Blip could not under- nd so he tumed to other reports rm other planets in other galaxies. vkfklkvk The report to the head Blip would lost be funny if it weren't true and ve weren't living in the middle of it. are living in a highly advanced rld, materially, but religion has rn reduced to superstition. I, personally, do not believe the ristians will burn in Hell for accept- a messiah, or that jews will burn not accepting one. I can not be- lve that Buddhists, Zoroastrians, idus or Mohammedans will burn for tcrilege that was conceived alone by man-made ego of religion. As a matter of fact, I don't even ieve in Hell. Not as a physical place, a spiritual level attained by sinful, .d souls. I think that Hell is a state mind, a condition. And from the on report, you can see that the ld is in that Hell of a condition. I am a Bahai. I believe that reli- n was meant to be mankinds' unify- element. As a Bahai, I am working world peace and unity. The Bahai faith teaches that there mly one God, and that the prophets all the major world religions were ssengers from that same God. Each these prophets, Abraham, Moses, . hna, Buddha, Zoroaster,Christ, and Mohammad, taught the same religious faith. They only developed and adap- ted it to meet the words of the people for the time in which they were living. This concept is called progressive revel- ation. The word bahai means a fol- lower of Ba.ha'u' llah. Baha u' llah was the prophetffounder of the Bahai faith. His name means the Glory of God. Some of the points which Baha u llah emphasized as the means of bring- ing about world unity were: Men must seek for truth in spite of custom, prejudice, and tradition. Men and women must have equal opportunities, rights, and privileges. The nations must choose an international language to be used along with the mother tongue. All children must receive a basic education. Men must make a systematic ef- fort to wipe out all those prejudices which divide people. Men must recognize that religion should go hand-in-hand with science. Men must work to abolish ex- treme wealth and extreme poverty. The Bahai Faith originated in Persia gimp in 1844 with Mirza Ali- Muhammed, Who called Himself the Bab fmeaning Gatej. He taught His fol- lowers that God would soon send a manifestation Who would unite man- kind and bring about world peace. During the following six years He gathered so many followers that the Persian government and the Islamic clergy persecuted Him and publicly ex- ecuted Him. After His death, more than twenty thousand of followers were slaughtered. ln 1863 Mirza Husayn-Ali took the title Baha u llah and publicly de- clared that he was the one foretold by the Bab and by all the holy books. To people of the Christian background, He is the return of Christg to Hindus, the Reincarnation of Krishna: to Zoro- astrians, the promised Shah Bahram: to Shi'th Islam, the return of the Imam Husayng to Israel, the Everlast- ing Father g and to Buddhists, the fifth Buddha. Baha u' llah was not accepted by the Islamic clergy. Persccuting Him, as they had done the Bab, they took His possessions and sent him into exile f first to Baghdad, then to Constan- tinople, to Adrianople, and finally to Akka fAcrel, Palestine, where He died in 1892, still a prisoner in exile. Baha 'u' llah has broken away from the oral tradition of religion. His mes- sage is written in His own hand, and can not be altered or changed. In a little over one hundred years since Bahafu' llah declared His mission, the Bahai Faith has spread around the world. Bahais everywhere are working to bring world peace and unity to the planet. This is being done by moral, self-improvement, and by educating the people of the world in the moral and social teachings for His day, brought by Bahau' llah. In one of His tablets, Bahau llah has said, This is the Day in which God's most excellent favors have been poured out upon men, the Day in which His most mighty grace hath been infused into all created things. It is incumbent upon all the peoples of the world to reconcile their differ- ences, and, with perfect unity, and peace, abide beneath the shadow of the Tree of His care and loving- kindness. I invite you to investigate the truth for yourself. Any member of the Bahai Council of Broward Community College would be glad to answer any questions you may have. Questions and comments on this article may be dropped in the Bahai Council mail box in the Student Activity Office in the Hospitality Center. You are also welcome to attend a Bahai Fireside. They are informal gatherings where the Bahai Faith is dis- cussed and questions answered. In Fort Lauderdale there is a Fireside every night of the week.

A5 .ga .,.- 0.i?- -1 '.5 if - Odgssesg Oceanographic Summer can mean ma.ny different things to different people. For some it means travel and a type of education found only rarely within the hallowed halls of BCC. For a large majority of college students, it means work. Most students that work through the summer do so in the hope that they will be able to earn enough money to see them through the coming school year for the past school year plusinterestl. A few, usually with more specific ideas about their eventual area of endeavor, donate their time and effort to an organization in the hope of gaining valuable experience in their chosen field. But it is a rare and fortunate student indeed who can achieve both of these goals at oncc. Last summer, primarily through the efforts of Mr. was Thomason, head of BCC's Cooperative Education Dept was fortunate enough to get a job which provided bc money and educational experience. I had applied to t CO-OP office early in Term I of 1969 for a job ini I anticipated major area of Marine Biology. L Mr. Thomason made inquiries throughout the state,a-I during the winter had several promising conversations wiri- Dr. William S. Richardson and Prof. Charles Yentsch, boi then from Nova University's Institute of Research and Ail vanced Technology. Dr. Richardson is director of Ndil Oceanographic Lab, and Prof. Yentsch, though he has sinnl left, was then head ofthe Lab's biological research group. I Early in April I was interviewed by Prof. Yentsch, HIIC-li few weeks later he made a positivejob offer, which I grall' fully accepted. I began work on May 4. Since I had described nil eventual major as marine biology, it had been supposed tha ii would work in some capacity for Professor Yentsch. BNI when I arrived he had gone to a food for the people of tll world conference in India. As a result, I was made assistahl to British microbiologist Dr. P. leb Williams. He was Ci leave from the University of Southhampton in England, anll was researching the metabolic rates and preferences of salt, water algae and bacteria. l My work consisted of preparing solutions, cleaning glasi: ware and instruments, and various other manual etceterasm prepared for and carried out many experiments and assistc-I with many others. Most of our experimentation was done with water takeli from the surf at Ft. Lauderdale beach. We would cate! .ii + 1. - 5 5 f' A rn-- l. n -af' --b gr,- ' 4 Al .aa M' l . P ' Q I ia., l 1- 6 g 2' N1 iawater in buckets, transfer it to large plastic jugs, and Trdely filter it through plankton netting. It would then be placed in small glass bottles, where a dioactive nutrient such as C14 glucose would be added. The Jttles would be incubated, and at predetermined intervals laura be sampled. Generally, the idea was for the microorganisms in the awater to ingest the radioactive nutrients as they would ,eir normal foods fthe nutrients radioactive properties have J special effectsj. The organisms metabolic processes break J the organic composition of the nutrients, but do not affect re radioactivity of the carbon molecules, whose final chem- ial destinations in the system can be anticipated. X When the biological processes are over, the radioactive olecules can then be chemically removed. They are even- ally converted, through various processes to a carbonate 'ecipitate on a filter. The filters are placed in a machine called a thin window 'oportional counter which works somewhat like a geiger xunter. The radioactive carbonate emits Beta particles lectronsl which complete a circuit and send an impulse rn a corder. The samples are counted for various intervals and the aunts per minute QCPMJ established. From the CPM many inclusions about the organism's uptake, respiration, pro- rction, and excretion can be dravm. For practicality's sake most of the experiments were run l Nova's Lab in Ft. Lauderdale. Twice during the summer owever, we were afforded the scientific luxury of making xuises to the island of Bimini, located in the Gulf Stream bout 45 miles east of Ft. Lauderdale. I .4 2.1 Bimini is an ideal base for this type of oceanographic work, because its harbor is only a few minutes trip from the deep ocean characteristics of the Gulf Stream, probably one of the most consistent marine environments in the world. The purpose of each cruise was to do in situ experiments fi.e. on location, under natural conditionsl. Where before we had taken beach water and incubated it on dry land in a temperature and light controlled incubator, we were now able to take uncontaminated ocean water from specific depths, innoculate it with our radioactive nutrients, and immediately return it to its natural depth, letting it incubate under natural pressure temperature, and light condi- tions. The experiments at sea were performed over a continu- ous 24 hour period to discover day and night difference and all proved to be highly successful. The completion of analysis of the second cruise's samples brought the end of active work. Professor Yentsch and the Biology group left Septem- ber 1 to establish a Marine Lab for the University of Massachussets, and Dr. Williams left a short time later to continue his work at Scripp Institute in Califomia. Looking back now, I cannot place a value on my ex- perience. I was privileged to participate in something that l would normally have been able to observe for at least another 2-4 years. by Dennis Gibson Student Travels ., MARTH ' Young America is on the move, traveling, exploring. . .seeking out new sights and sounds. In the spring months, when col- leges open their gates with a yawn, thousands of blinking students are re- leased into the sunlight with the univer- sal question, Where to now? Unfortunately there is no universal answer. Your direction is your own de- cision. Many, if finances allow them will be lured to the mystique of foreign lands. Others will turn lazy and go no- where. The distant and the redundant are fine for others, but I'll take Martha's Vineyard. The Vineyard, as visitors and islan- ders lovingly refer to it, is an island off Cape Cod's historic coast. It is not for those who crave glamour and excite- ment, but rather for those who seek a sanctuary away from the enclosing jungle of high rise civilizations. My vacation began when I joined a throng of jubilant people waiting for the ferry at Wood's Hole, an unobtrusive fishing town on the heel of the Cape. The nippy sea breezes coming off the Atlantic charges everyone with liveliness. Children scamper about the wharf and beach finding treasures only children value. Long hair youths carry- ing knapsacks and sleeping bags wonder if they'll be allowed to camp and if they'll be able to findjobs. Adults stand by patiently, worrying if their cars will get across without reservations or if their summer cottage has withstood the brunt of the island's devastating winters. It is like the beginning of a Tolkien adventure. Finally the mammoth white ferry, Islander , loads its human cargo, gives a blast from its fog horn, and steams out into Vineyard Sound like a mechanized Moby Dick. Up on the top deck a strong salty wind greet the voyagers who line the rails watching the approaching land- fall. SVIEY The cries of seagulls herald the approaching vessel as it lumbers into Vineyard Haven harbor and docks with all the grace of a zeppelin performing an intricate ballet step. Disembarking, you begin to won- der if you have traversed time instead of distance. The chant of coin-divers at the dock fades as you walk into the town. No glaring billboards with printed sug- gestions and no green and red orders to walk and not to walk are found here. This town, like the rest of the island is preserved in the past. The citizens keep up a constant battle against moderni- zation. They fought against such issues as jets landing at the airport and lost. But regained their stamina and fought to ban big busses and succeeded. They strived to preserve the beautiful deso- late Wasque Point on Chappaquidick and were victorious. No change is too small for them to protest. They even resisted a slight road improvement by denouncing the removal of a substan- dard bump on one of the roads leading up-island. Noted columnist Art Buchwald once suggested as a joke to build a bridge from the mainland to the island and was immediately besieged by angry letters from irate natives who dis- like such things even injest. First time visitors usually start the season with sightseeing. Most head up- island, where winding roads are shaded by spreading oaks and the air is scented by scrub pine, until the hilly terrain of Chilmark is reached. Here the elevation of the island is highest and the pano- rama of this end of the island can be seen with a sweeping gaze. The sur- rounding hills are covered with wild raspberries, strawberries, and blue- berries and criss-crossed by miles of rus- tic stone walls. Farther off are the miles of un- blemished white beaches contrasted by the dark blue-green waters of the At- RD bg Fred Thurber lantic. The sea breaks into uniformed lines of surf as they charge the shore. With sundown only a short time off, the newcomer hurries to Gay Head and the spectacle of the cliffs. The cliffs, carved by nature out of multi- colored clay stand hundreds of feet high. They overlook the turmoil of the Atlantic, that is characteristic to this tip of the island. Erosion created the cliffs and now, despite efforts of conserva- tionists including the Army Engineer Corps, threatens to destroy this magnif- icent wonder. Gay Head is populated predomi- nently by Indians, whose ancestors greeted the first white settlers of the new world. In the summer they stand in proud splendor, bedecked in their feathers and beads, keeping watch over their land. They have played an import- ant part in the is1and's history. They taught early settlers to fish and plant, they became great harpooners in the whaling era, and they are responsible for some of the exotic island names such as Tashmoo, Squibneckett, and Menemsha ponds. Today they still live in the land of their forefathers . . . a powerful lesson for the rest of the na- tion. With nightfall, the activity centers in the towns of Edgartown and Oak Bluffs. Edgartown, once a great whaling port, second only to New Bedford, has changed little since its boom days. The streets, narrow and wind past the tall white houses of whaling captains, domm to the dockside restaurants that look out over Edgartown harbor. The decor of these restaurants is traditional, dis- playing such artifacts of the past as fish nets, delicate glass floats, and gaily painted lobster buoys. The view of the harbor is breathtaking as tiny lights from boats and nearby Chappaquidick flicker and dance over the water. The food is exquisite whether you like aked stuffed lobster or broiled in but- er swordfish, and the island air always 'ves you an appetite. An after-dinner stroll along the har- or is one of enchantment. You can most imagine seeing the Pequod sail- g in and Ahab on deck shouting rders. For brighter lights and the activity f the now generation Oak Bluffs is the Eigh spot. The young congregate here, leither walking up and down the side- Nalks of Circuit Avenue, or in one of few bars drinking and talking in shouts over the music of thejukebox. ' Oak Bluffs was originally a city of 'ents, which stood in a congested circle ound a large tabernacle. Slowly, tiny ouses with stylish gables and intricate race trim replaced the tents, but the l ea, even today is known as the camp- ounds. 1 Until last year, when vandals dis- fupted the ceremony, residents held an nual event called Illumination night. uring this night thousands of colorful apenese lanterns were hung out on X orches and the park surrounding the abernacle. No one can understand why such a sight would provoke anyone to ruin it by stealing and destroying those lgentle lights. Drawn by the past, some people venture into the Flying Horses , also found in Oak Bluffs. This is the oldest operating merry-go-round in the coun- try. Here you can buy sweet, sticky cotton candy, ride an antique, and have a Cl'lEl.IlCC to catch the gold ring. Its not often you get an offer like that any- more. The summer seems to pass all too quickly, while you spend your time at one of the many beaches, swimming and exploring. Occasionally, you might try your luck at one of the island skills such as clamming, quahogging, or crabbing. Watching an islander qua- hogging is somewhat surprising. What appears to be someone knee-deep in water, doing the twist, is actually an islander quahogging. He digs into the mud with his feet and feels for the qua- hog, which is a hard-shelled clam used to make the famous New England chowder. The summer's closing weeks are highlighted by the annual County Fair sponsored by the island Grange. The site is the old Grange Hall in agrarian West Tisbury, where each year the island's home and farm crafts are dis- played in a competitive air. The fair lasts for three fun-packed days, beginning with the indoor con- tests. Baking, gardening, sewing, and knitting endeavors are judged with as much scrutiny as the pieces of art work on exhibit. Almost everyone receives an honorable mention, but the notability comes with the coveted blue ribbon. The second day is devoted to judging the livestock in the pens at the lower end of the fairgrounds. At times you'll see an adventurous lad or two hopping the fence at this end of the field to avoid the front gate admission fee. The looks they receive are permis- sive, for everyone is more interested in the champion cows, bulls, sheep, goats, chickens and ducks and their proud owners, young 4-H members and old wizened farmers. The last day is the most dramatic for islanders. This is the day for the Horse Show, where the rival farms dis- play their best horseflesh and riders. Each riding event is taken as serious as a World series baseball game. When the last yellow, red, and blue ribbons are handed out, there are tears of joy for the winners and just tears and the thought of next year for the losers. The night tums the fair into a carni- val, complete with thrilling rides and a midway featuring games of chance. The memory of losing a daytime contest is forgotten when you pitch a dime and win a teddybear. With the end of the fair comes the last week of vacation. People revisit their favorite spots of solitude. ln the evening they sit on porches and listen to the song of the island being sung by a chorus of pinkletinks. It is a melodic chirping of marsh creatures unique only to the island. The day of departure unites the swarm of people that dispersed at the beginning of summer, as they line up to board the ferry. As the boat leaves the landing, giving its fog horn the expected shrill blast, the passengers line the rail again. This time they look back at an unspoiled land that fights to remain as it was . . .

It all began when a representative from World Academy, in Cincinnati, Ohio, came to the BCC campus trying to interest people in its foreign study and travel program. Charles Brogdon, an English in- structor, was asked to be a group advis- or and to publicize the opportunity in classes and with notices around the campus. Through an agreement with the college, students were to receive three hours credit. Nine students signed up for the trip: john Bojanowski, john Buyers, Helen Bradley, Patti DeFel.ice, Bob Flinn, Carol Goold, Tom Kubler, Ken Springer, and Don Zion. The plan was to take a 39-day trip to seven countries, studying contempo- rary European civilization, at a cost of S895 per student. The itinerary included Rome and Milan, Italyg St. Cergue and Geneva, Switzerlandg Paris, Franceg Brussels, Belgium, Cologne, Germanyg Amster- dam, the Netherlands, and London, England. The group of ten gathered at the tour terminal of Kennedy Airport in New York on june 25 at 8:30 p.m. At 11:00 p.m. they boarded the plane, only to wait another three hours on the runway. At one time, Brogdon said, bg Ellie Randolph they were 33rd in line for take-off. At 2:00 a.m., the plane dashed down the runway, began its climb, tucked in its wheels, and set its sights and probably its autopilot for La Bella Roma. Brimming with excitement and anticipation, the 250 students and their advisors spent the eight hour nip on Capitol Airlines talking and eating. Because of the five hour difference in time, they arrived in Rome at 3:00 the next aftemoon. After going through customs, they proceeded on to their accommodations in an abandoned boys' school near the center of town. Aside from being a bit cramped, Brogdon said, it was fine. With some difficulty he folded his six foot three inch frame into a bed four feet long. Patti DeFelice said that the girls had to kneel down to wash their hair in the low basins. They were in Rome for five days as planned. For their group of 250, there were five professors who taught classes from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. A pro- fessor irom the University of Rome gave one lecture on the history of the Italian government from Garibaldi to the present time. After classes time was spent sight- seeing. They went to the Colosseum, in the daytime to be admired as an archi- Af 76 tcctural masterpiece of elliptical form and at night to be avoided as thc gather- ing place of Rome's assorted degenerate characters. ln spite of its questionable reputation - or maybe because of it - they did go to the Colosseum one night with a boy who worked at the school as a guide. The group, huddled together for protection, took a quick look and departed for healthier areas. A sound and light show among the ruins of the Forum outlined its place in history as the center of legal and public affairs in ancient Rome. A three hour wall, through the Vatican ended with a visit to the Sistine Chapel, its ceiling covcred with Michaclangelo's incom- parable frescocs, the result of four and a half years work. They saw the beautiful, vaulted Pantheon, where Raphael is buried: the Basilica of St. Peter in Chainsg and the Trevi Fountains, which unfortunately were turned off for cleaning. Busses took them to the Cata- combs, and three of the group, Ken Springer, Don Zion, and Bob Flinn, took a side trip to Pompeii. Five days slipped away, leav 'lg the students with a treasure of feell .gs, impressions, in- sights, and knowledge of the essence of Rome. They left the abandoned school at noon and waited four hours for busses to be brought in from Switzerland Finally they were aboard, settled i their seats, Spewing fumes along th way, their trusty mechanical steed were off for Florence, where the stu dents were to spend the night on the way to St. Cergue, Switzerland. The next day's trip included one of the great experiences for any traveler, crossing of the Alps. We went from summer to winter in an hour, said Patti DeFelice. From the warmth of Italy, the caravan passed by magnificent peaks and valleys climbing to an am- bience of clouds, snow, eerie fog and cold. At the border Swiss guards were wearing fur coats. St. Cergue is a ski resort, 20 miles up a mountain road from Geneva. The food, the view, and the climate were fabulous, Brogdon said. Majestic Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps, for centuries a lure for mountain climbers, soared in the background. During the four days in St. Cergue, they went to classes as scheduled, shop- ped in the village, and went sightseeing. On a day trip to Geneva, Helen Bradley said, We saw the United Nations build- ing, the rose gardens, and the fountain in Lake Geneva. On july 4, there was a great cele- bration going on in the ski lodge. The students were rather surprised when, at 3157312 U' O l i 2:00 a.m., busses pulled up outside and disgorged 250 more students. They crowded into the lodge with their mountain of luggage, and 500 slept that night in space allotted for half that number. They slept in the lobby, in halls, in bedrooms, in any unoccupied space, and in the morning boarded the busses again to move on to Paris. One fateful day, Bob Flinn, Don Zion, Carol Goold, and Ken Springer decided to take the ski lift up the moun- tain to see the magnificent view. Flinn dropped his ticket on the way and, walking down the hill to pick it up, slipped and broke his leg. This resulted in an operation and a two week stayin a hospital in Nyon. In spite of the mishaps, the confu- sion, and the interminable waiting, the students were having a fantastic time. Then, a phone call from the States brought their castle of plans down in a tinkling heap. World Academy was bankrupt. The remainder of the trip was cancelled. Students were told that they had to return to the United States immedi- ately. Plucked from their classes, they were given an hour and a half to pack and be ready to go. Disappointment settled over the lodge like a shroud. Many of the students had worked and saved for months to make the trip. s . Some, who wanted to stay and pay their own way for the rest of the trip, were not allowed to. They were told that the United States government was ordering. them back. This, it was discov- ered later, was not true. World Acad- emy, being responsible for them as long as they were out of the states, wanted them back as soon as possible. Though thwarted in their original plans the students didn't let their spirit of adventure die. After returning, most of the group continued their travel. Helen Bradley, Patti DeFelice, and Carol Goold, with a group of girls from the trip, went to Long lsland and then back to Ft. Lauderdale. One of the best things about the trip was the friends we made from all over the United States, Patti said. john Buyers went to Mexico with friends: Ken Springer went to Pittsburg: Tom Kubler went to North Carolina. Charles Brogdon spent a week in New York and then went to Atlanta and Tampa. All the students agreed that the 10 days they did have were fantastic. They liked Switzerland much better than Italy and stressed that one of the greatest things about the trip was the wonderful friends they made. Would they do it again? The answer was a unanimous Yes!

Q' lhn .Qt s I Q A no 3 Man of o Tomorrow dam Seated at a round early-American style table in his comfortable paneled office, President Hugh Adams discus- sed what the next 10 years will mean for Broward Com- munity College. This decade could be the most significant, ever, for this college, in that we're gearing up to respond to the needs of the country's fastest-growing area. We will evolve from an institution located some distance from the center of population to a multi-campus, multiple location college district at the end of this decade. By 1980, the number of students will approach 25,000. There will be three layers of service available: three campuses, multiple centers, and a number of scatter-shot COIIISCS. In this way, the college will approach its goal of taking the community college to the community. to I. by Ellie Randolph .4 'A 'r --M f . Ground has already been broken for the first building on the north campus. By 1980 it should be complete to accomodate 6,000 full-time students. Building of the south campus is scheduled to begin in 1974. Due to the growth of the area, the campuses, by the end of the decade, will be located in the traditional campus location, the center of the population belt. The second layer of service, the centers, will offer more specialized programs for those who are unable to come to the campus. One, now in existence, is located at the old City Hall Annex, where a person working in city govem- ment can take a lunch over and take college English during the lunch hour. My guess would be that there will be half a dozen of these in addition to the campuses, Adams said. The third layer, or scattereshot courses, will be offered to any group that cannot take advantage of a campus or a center. If a group can't come to the college, the college, in effect, will go to the group. There are some of these courses now, in industry. People who want college improvement can take a course during their lunch hour right in the plant where they work. Registration will be continuous and vastly simplified for the student in the years to come. Our ultimate goal is to register anyone within the district to attend at any loca- tion or combination of locations, Adams said. A mobile unit will visit high schools, industry, and shopping centers, and be able to offer advisement and registration on the spot. High schools will be visited twice, once in the fall to offer information and again in the spring to register students. Transferring to an upper division university from a community college will be no problem for students in the future. An articulation agreement among the colleges has established mandatory proceedures for all institutions in- volved. For example, an Associate of Arts degree will be accepted throughout the system. Adams envisions the adop- tion of uniform admission forms and joint scholarships which will continue through the four years. The Broward Community College district will be ad- ministered from an office in downtown Ft. Lauderdale. Adams plans to move his staff to divorce ourselves from any single location per se. There will be a well-rounded program in inter-collegiate athletics. However, there will be no inter-collegiate football as it is not permitted at community colleges. The SPANS program will continue to grow. I want to see us reach out a helping hand when we can, Adams said. Another goal is the extension of cultural and enlighten' ment aspects of the college to the community. A good beginning will be made in February, 1971, when the college will sponsor the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. President Adams would like to see an advisory group established to assist in promotion and organization of programs. Perhaps during the next 10 years some nationally or internationally known figures will be lecturers in residence at the college. Adams' enthusiasm for the coming decade can be summed up in his statement that Broward Community College has the greatest promise and greatest potential of any institution in Florida.

And, seemingly , ofa num- ber ol other xerx commercittl phrases. Perh.1ps I should explain the premise ol' this article. lPe1'haps I NIIULIILIITII, but I'll talse the chance.l Several months ago the story brolse that there are .1 stirprisingh large numf ber ot people holding doctorate de- grees who .tie out ot xxorls. About tl1e same time, .1 magazine ptiblished .1 list ot the thirst p1'o111ising C1ll'CCI'5 for the nest decade. Heading that list were computer Dl'Ugl'.tl1lll'lIllt1 .ind hotel- motel and lood adntinistixttion, the reasoning being th.1t more people are .ittending colleges .ind universities and that these talents .ne needed by those institutions. Considering these Iaets collec- tively, one can loresee .1 time when we will have .tn educated, but unem' pI11yed,popul.1ti1111. The tiuestion then arises: In 11 so- ciety den1.1nding tecl1nic.1l slsills, what is the role ofthe Fine Arts ITTtlIttl'? I suppose this is as good a place .is any to insert this pttragrttpli. It is here that I .innotince th.1t,11ndexpl.1in why, I will .ixoid the use ol the work tt1I' IUICII.

An now, b.1cls tothe stittt .... According to the Student Slttlistl- cal Anah sis lor Term I ol the years l967-l970, the percentage ol art and music lTT.tIttl'S, including music educa- tion Fttttitmrs, has risen in .tpproximate proportion to the total enrollrnent. The one exception is between l9t19 and l97U,btittht1tisbec.1t1sethe num- ber of students enrolled only in night courses increased greatly in that peri- od. There was insufficient data on the number of drama majors to form a comparison. Although the initial respose as to why one is majoring in either of these three fields was invariably, Oh, wow .., well, er , . . I've always liked it, it became evident that, in the case of music, most students come from mu- sical families. Dr. Thomas Cavendish, instructor in voice and director of the Chamber Choir, said, in addition, that .. 2 I I 1 I l I W- 1 1 it is almost impossible to start one musical education at the college lev- and that one must have a music. background. The majority of the students cu rently enrolled in the Pre-Music prc gram are seelsinga bachelor's degreei Music Education. Celia Bagwe pointed out that you can do anythin with an Applied Music degree, incluc ing set up your own studio and giv lessons, that you can with a Music Ec ucation degree --except teach in I ,ci yi v one art leads than 71 school system . Mark Sorrells, another music edu- cation major, simply called it security Dr. Cavendish agrees that most students, if they stay in music, will end up teaching, unless they go into musical therapy or music in industry. Lowell Little, director of the jazz Ensemble, said Tapes and records have done a tremendous ill in teaching people to ignore music rather than en- ioy it. He noted specifically the con- stant stream of music being played in sv' a .K-9' stores. He added that the mechanical mass reproduction of songs has put the budding amateur at a disadvantage, forcing him to use gimmicks and strive for the top or attain nothing. Miss Betty McMillon, who teaches theory and Music Appreciation, noted that there are many frustrated perfor- mers teaching at all levels today. lShe does not include herself among that group.l While it is true that most of the students l spoke with expressed both the desire to perform and the probability of their teaching, two stu- dents, Barbara Roper and Ben Ford, said that their ambition was to educate others in the aspects of music. Barbara Roper hopes to teach at the iunior high school level because there is a demand for good teachers for this age group since the more quali- fied instructors usually go into high school or college education. She stressed the importance of pride in one's performance and the necessity of performing musically, rather than mechanically. A confession of stage fright enter- ed into Ben Forcl's explanation of why he prefers to teach. iln all fairness, Ben's exact words were that he is au- dience shy. l've iust realized that there may be slightly different mean- ings attached to those phrasesg I should have thought of that sooneixl ln addition, he said that he would probably be a better musician if there were more competition. He is the only French horn player at BCC. 'w J On the future of music, several points were made. Miss McMillion observed that con- temporary music, in whatever period, has been generally frowned upon. De- fining dissonance as something not heard before, and therefore not under- stood, she looks for the eventual blending of western and eastern music. She added that all music is based on what has gone before, and noted that the Beatles were the first rock group to compose in the style of the early church humns and that certain sec- tions from Bach, with slight modifica- tions, could provide the bass founda- tion for a iazz band. Dr. Caxendish has seen neither an increase nor a decrease in choral mu- sic, yet feels that proper techniques should be taught in high schools, in- stead of merely preparing a group for contests. He blames this weakness on the conservatixe nature of edu- cation . Dr. Cavendish also cites that cur- rent trends ot' folk, electronic, and aleactoric music, among others, as gaining possible acceptance in the fu- ture. The last refers to music that is pieces together at random, with no set pattern and no predestined end. But, after all this, a iustification is still needed. Why is music important? Monica Wilson, an applied music maior hoping to perform with a local opera companx, beliexes that it is a re- flection of the times and the people, in that it is an integral part of such things as requiem masses to moxie scores. fi 'DY' l P5 Barbara Roper f Music E dacation Major 1 From left, jan Krzyzamski - Mum Education Majorg Monica Wilson - Voice Major, and Wayne Carr - Mus Education Major. Mary Couture, who plans to teac elementary school, calls music a emotional release . She added, hov ever, that even professional musiciar need such an outlet. Active in dram before becoming seriously intereste in music, Mary said that they bot have the capacity to make peopl happy . jan Krzyzanski, earning a musi education degree that he expects wi be only the first of four, each in a di' ferent field, emphasized the emotio that is expressed by a composer, 2 times even in spite of a terrible perfol mance. lan sited Hank Williams asa example on both counts. Wayne Carr, however, spoke c the communication between a mus cian and his audience and the impol tance of the passing on of a particula mood through a well-performed work Wayne has seven piano students at thi time and hopes to eventually teacl college. judy Nichols, studying music edu cation, was quick to point out that thi understanding, and therfore the com munication, of the emotional messagi of a song comes only after much ex perience and study of musical works By comparison, I found the stu dents that l talked to who are follow ing the Pre-Art curriculum were, ir some cases, less willing to be inter viewed than those in the music an: drama departments. lt may be notec to the fact that art is a part of the total man-made environment . jamie Heinz,who plans to bee come a high school art teacher, called the future of art unpredictable, but said she would emphasize the expres- sive elements to her students. She noted that in Broward county there is an abundance of social science and English teachers, yet art instructors are in short supply. As an architecture major, Ray Manning believes that architecture is an art in its own way . He feels, also, that there is the need to get away from square structures, but thinks the cur- rently-popular wings are too contrived and impractical. jeff Nieddu, also studying archi- tecture, said that he would rather de- sign around nature than destroy it in order to build a house. He pointed out that Franlglin Lloyd Wright, in the first quarter ol the century, was designing buildings that incorporated waterfalls and other aspects of nature in the plans, so that the rigidness of the rec- tangular shape was eliminated. jeff Conceded that Wright was thinking far beyond his own time, but believes that architecture is moving in that di- rection. Still another student following the Pre-Architecture curriculum, Pablo Picaso, lr. lHonestll, expressed the opinion that the required Life Drawing class really doesn't tie in with his field, but added that all art leads into other art , He concluded by saying that what he put down on paper was how he felt about that subject. QS l 5 fl ,uf Q Y 4' A prospective commercial artist, who prefers to remain anonymous, said that she hopes to go into fashion advertising, for it is something real that people can see and form an opin- ion on. Preferring natural beauty to cubism and other abstract forms, she feels that too many artists follow the now thing, and expects that the trend will return to the appreciation of natural representation. When asked why she had decided on art as a career, this student an- swered, l feel like l've failed at every- thing else. Truthfully, everybody's got to have their top thing. Mrs. Wallace said that we are cur- rently in a period of transition, siting the neo-realism and experimentation in different media taking place. Anonymous termed today's visual art scene a step back to the cavedays . Another art maior, who also wishes to remain anonymous, defined art as anything that invokes and emotional response and added that it entails bending feeling and thought into expression . These comments were made concerning the importance of art. Anonymous ll also mentioned that the earliest record we have of man is his artwork. Both Anonymous l and ll l?l expressed the desire to become profes- sional artists, if possible. The latter is primarily interested in crafts and ce- ramics, for she feels there is more ofa challenge in turning a glob of nothing into something , but she believes she will probably teach at the elementary school level because children are the most creative people . Soctt Currie decided to go into in- terior design when he realized he could not only enjoy building things, but get credit for it in college. He believes that all the arts compliment each other and enjoys the challenge of doing some- thing with space . lt is for this reason that he would prefer to design residen- tial interiors, for there is more free- dom in that field than there is in the commercial areas. Currently popular furnishings are split about SOM either way between practical concepts and pure art, ac- cording to Scott but he believes that good design and comfort can coexist in furniture. And too, he mentions the possibility of constantly changing rooms, complete with moving walls, etc. George Cavanagh, acting instruc- tor and director of most of BCC's theatre productions, has been writing and directing plays since he was ten years old. ln fact, there is the general opinion that, as children, many people show traits that could be signs of the- atre potential, yet these traits are often discouraged. Drama student, Thea Katopody believes that everyone, at one time or another, has had the desire to be on stage, but that it is either the nervey or the very shy who usually enter into a career as a performer. She hopes to teach drama, emphasizing the book form, the elements of playwriting, and why a work was written, because, she said, l'm a Greek . Theatre is more influential than even music, offered Richard Rose, stagecraft instructor, stating that a the- atre production incorporates all the arts. Rose taught English for a year be- fore switching to drama because he considered English passive com- pared to theatre. Bob Slavinski, who plans to work as a set designer or possibly stage man- ager in professional theatre, spoke of the rewards of working in Ill? ICChHi- cal areas. For example, he stated that there is great satisfaction in hearing an audience applaud a set one has de- signed and built, as happened during The King and l . Marc Paonessa said that entertain- ment is a different type of art, while defining art as anything you're inter- ested in . Having studied for a career in business, he called the people in that field plastic and added that the most interesting people he has ever met were in theatre. He believes that he will probably teach drama in the fu- ture, but says that he has no prefer- ence as to what level or age group since the interest and desire of the stu- dents is all that he feels is important. The chance to use her special tal- 1 6 ents, which lie in costume designi appeals to Kay Ring. She explain, that through the fabric, color, and c of a costume a character can take new dimensions. There is also the challenge, fun, involved in designing period tumes. Costuming can help to malid the timeless and universal theme ofa play more obvious. For example, Thea Katopody visualizes the classical Greeli play, Antigone, performed in space suits. mi Connie Scott, who has ambitions of becoming a professional stage ao tress, feels there is more of a rapport between a performer and a live audi- ence. Kay Ring, however, carried tha' a step further, and stated that tele vision is perhaps the greatest cause ol the destruction a person's imagination Connie also said that the way thi written work is interpreted and stage! by the entire crew will bring a play life. Adding that actors don't cut anyone down for getting a part be cause it raises the level of the perfor mance, she later conceeded that actini is like playing 'King of the Mountain for your whole life . Clarissa Lega noted that on filrr all the action is exposed to the viewer whereas a stage play will show only the cause and the result of some ac tion. Drama's most important functior is to stimulate and drain the audience of emotion, according to Clarissa. Shi is currently a psychology major ant drama minor, seriously considering reversing those areas of study. Miss Mildred Mullikin was unavail able for comment, working not only with her own classes, but with Open Workshop, in preparation for its per formance, and with the cast of Cin derella, the BCC Children's Theatrt production for Term ll. At this point, l can only offeri brief conclusion. The spoken or written word alont is a sometimes inefficient means Q sharing emotion or some aspect ot one's personality. lf the Fine Art exist for a specific reason, perhaps it if to fill this void. ,S fW ?1ap,..t i J xgk To one used to the ear-racking blatting of Acid-rock that blares from the radio twenty-five hours a day, the harmony and grandeur of the Detroit Symphony was a welcome and sooth- ing change, Mr. Ehrling, the conductor, con- ducted the symphony through such pieces as Firebird by Igor Stravinsky and Brazilian lmpressions by Respighi, as well as some more well- known pieces such as Beethoven's Symphony No. 8 and Rossini's Overture to Semiride . The music wasn't really spoiled by the War Memorial Auditorium's bad acoustics, although during some of the softer numbers the woodwinds tended to drown out the strings, whether because of where we were sitting or because the War Memorial lacks a proper proscenium to conduct the sound to the audience, I really don't know. The effect was something like listening to a stereo with the balance turned all the way over to Bass. The technical flawlessness of the Symphony was little short of amazing when one consideres the difficulty in mastering a musical instrument, and the many hours of arduous practice and training it must have took each musician to master his or her respec- tive instrument to attain such a higl- P level of competence. During Inter- mission I heard many people remark- ing and marveling over how all the bows went up and down at the same time. It wasn't as crowded as I expected it to be, but there were still a number of people there, and I noticed many BCC students. Strangely, there seemed to be nearly all old or very young people there, not really many in the 35-45 age bracket. As to the music itself, Semira- mide was lovely, lilting, and tripping. Beethoven's No. 8 was a dissap- pointment after hearing some of his greater symphonies, lby greater, I mean more powerfull symphonies, but it was nice, and I could easily visualize peaceful valleys and gently flowing strams. Brazilian Impressions was a lovely pieces, with an ethereal, dream- like quality of drifting down some amazonian river through placid sunlit waters with bright, colorful birds swooping low over the water. My cinema-television trained mind ruined my enioyment somewhat, how- ever. I kept getting visions of Dorthy Lamour in a sarong being persued by Clark Gable through some tropical moonlit pool. I had the same problem with other pieces. I had the horrible suspicion that one particular number 8 had accompanied a Chevy ll spor coupe through scenic mountains, ar another a cold cuts commercial. Oi wonders about our children's cultur exposure. I was a little worried abou my reaction, but my investigatic proved that quite a few people had fe the same way. By far the favorite piece, iudgingl the way the audience reacted, wi Firebird . . it was powerful and sur ing, and in it one could visualize tl wings and soarings of a great, magnil cent bird. After this, the last numbe the Symphony received a standir ovation, and IVIr. Ehrling had to tal three bows and an encore. The audience, and I, left tl symphony contented and relaxed. gave a kind of relaxation and enjo' ment that one can't get very ofte nowdays with the new-wave movie and the bitterness and cynicism th: surrounds them. The Detroit Symphi ny was a well worth seeing, and wort bringing down. 6 Detroit Symphony L 9 1 h mbe hair A look at the activities calendar for Term ll in the Student Handbook can be misleading. It lists only one perfor- mance for the Chamber Choir and that, in the Lecture Theatre. In fact, it is believed by the con- ductor that there is a general lack of knowledge among students concerning the group largely because the great bulk of their activities are conducted oll campus. Members of the choir are chosen through competitive auditions by the director, Dr, Thomas Cavendish. That they are highly disciplined singers can be demonstrated by the fact that during both rehearsals and perfor- mances the group is not arranged by sections. That is, there are no clusters of sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses. Rather, the members are placed so as to produce .1 total blend of voices. The choir was featured in an Horizons of Faith program, aired March 28 on WCKT, which included worlss by Brahms, Handel, and Schutz, and the following day performed for the Broward Music Educators Associa- tion. Though Dr. Cavendish termec these two appearances very gooc opportunities , he regretted that they fell within two days of each other. The Chamber Choir began their state tour with an April 17 concert on campus. The itinerary for the four-day trip included performances in Porl Charlotte, Sarasota, Winter Haven, Cape Kennedy, and West Palm Beach.

Because the repertoire of the choir is rather large, the program for each performance varied somewhat. The exactness of Bach, as presented in his Magnificat , was performed along with The Girl From Ipanema , By The Time I Get to Phoenix , and the score from Funny Girl. Song of Mary , And With His Stripes We Shall Be Healed , and Frostiana were among other works included in the recitals. The last was a collection of seven poems by Robert Frost set to music by Randall Thomason. lorja Taylor, Monica Wilson, Charles Lyons, and David Thomas formed the ensemble performing Woman, Why Weepest Thou? by Heinrich Schutz. Also, Miss Taylor and Miss Wilson each handled the solo in Menotti's Under the Willow Tree on ll Qi 5, X, X gl l Linda Schmaltz, Celia Bagwell different occasions. The aforemention- ed MagniHcat included several solo sections. The soprano solos in the Poulenc Gloria were all performed by Linda Schmaltz, while Lisa Grond- zik was the featured soprano in the performance of Funny Girl. Every tenor sang the male solo from this play in at least one concert during the term. Although the members of the Chamber Choir are all extremely tal- ented, the role of the conductor can- not be deemphasized, for it is he who is ultimately responsible for the tech- nical perfection and aesthetic quality' of the performance. Dr. Cavendish's calls of Diction! Too many missed entrances! You're flat! can some- times be heard over the singing of the group during rehearsals, but it is he who conducts them into crescendos of anguish, or joy, or any one of many personal emotions. And that's what it's all about. .

True, opera and the prospect of 'forming it does not attract a great ny people, but for those who wish broaden their vocal experience, the av music activity, Opera Workshop, ords this opportunity. Term ll of the 1970-1971 school ir was the first time such a course J been offered at BCC. Originally ieduled for an autumn debut, it was stponed due to lack of student re- Jnse and previous commitments on 1 part of the faculty to the musical :duction for that term, The Sound Music. Members are chosen on the basis audition by the director, Thomas j. Ie. Byron E. Franklin, credited by . Cole as a man without whom era workshop could not function , ves as accompanist. The small enrollment lthere were ein the class in Term Ill can be at- Juted not only to the limited inter- among students, but to the prob- 1 of finding voices mature enough withstand the strain of opera. The emphasis is primarily on the 'formance of one-act operas and se- ted scenes from the standard works, ' again the director stressed the im- rtance of Not,straning young on m oneflzolbn voices. He consideres Mozart as ideal for singers at this stage of their development and the initial group did, in fact, study a scene from The Mar- riage of Figaro as part of the learning process. Through actual performances, the members of the class are intro- duced to acting techniques, including the blocking of movements, and to costuming, lighting, and the other numerous aspects that, combined, make opera perhaps the most com- plete art form. On April 2, the group made its de- but with a performance of A Game of Chance by Seymour Barab. It is the story of three young women lplayed by Linda Schmaltz, Celia Bag- well, and josephine Adragnal who, while they knit in a garden, voice their secret desires. One wishes for fame, the second, money, and the third, love. The final scene sees them as older Women, each having acquired her de- sire, each realizing she should have asked for more. Ben Ford portrays the representative who brings them news of their respective acquisitions, while Camille Milazzo is understudy. On the advent of the Rock Opera, Mr. Cole commented that he has heard jesus Christ, Superstar and believes that the form will find acceptance among those interested in rock music, citing the rock sound from beginning to end. However, he does not foresee a performance by the Opera Workshop of a work in that genre. Q 'if- 13 'SD' not all ceramics is pottery Ceramics has come into an art from all its own and has taken its place in the creative art of self expression Broward Community rs fortunate to have a very fine ceramic studio and a class taught by Mr. Tobe. This term ing looking mess Considering such limitations, it was a wonder that anything got done at all The students not only had to mix their own clays from powdered clay but also their own glazes using raw miner- als like iron and tin oxides feldspars trically rotated turntablej to mold th piece The name is probably derive from the first step in using a wheel slamming down the wad of clay on th turntable to make it stick lt takes good deal of practice to gain . degree of competence on the wheel ru Q. 0 . from Pug to Po Although all pottery is Ceramics, lovely translucent red and a disgust- just using a wheel ia manually or ele , ll there were fifteen students enrolled. There, in the dusty, dirty, cluttered ruoni, crammed with scuopture and scrap metal from the sculpture class, canvasses and drawings from the De- sign and Painting classes, and wheels, tables, and unlired greenware, they delved deep lsometimes quite literallyl into clays, glazes. Firing temperatures, cone numbers, cantankerous pug mills, and wet plaster bats were all problems that had to be coped with, and some- how be made into an expressive art form. The Ceramic art is restricted, but extremely challenging. For examples, it is a challenge to a ceramicist to find an expressive art form that won't blow up in the kiln, or break the first time it is lifted, or crack while it is drying. And unlike drawing, which has only two dimensions to contend with, the ceramic artist has four---time becomes a very important element. lt takes so much time for a piece to be construct- ed, for the clay hardens the longer it stands, so much time for it to dry ltoo much moisture will cause the piece to blow up in the kiln ...uneven drying causes it to crackj, and once the piece is dried, firing times are very impor- tant. Clay takes on different proper- ties, depending on which temperature it's fired at. Red clay will take on a bright orange color when fired at a low temperature. But if fired a few hun- dred degrees higher, it will come a brick-reddish shade. lf fired higher, it will take on a deep, chocolate hue. And if fired higher, it melts into a pile of molten silica. Glazes, too are fin- icky about proper temperature. A glaze that will mature lfirel into a beautiful translucent blue at a low temperature will turn into an opaque black if fired higher. And some colors are terribly hard to get---red and oranges for example. There is only a narrow leeway in temperature from a colbalts and others. How does the ceramicist construct a piece? There are two main methods-- hand-molding, and throwing. When the ceramicist does not have a wheel, or when he needs a special kind of effect a wheel can't give, he uses three methods of construction: Coil, Slab, and Pinch, or the Thumb Pot method. Coil construction is just that--- Iumps of clay are rolled out into long snakes which are coiled on top one another till the desired shape and size are reached. The slab method con- sists of clay being rolled into sheets , Then, the ceramitist uses a sharp knife in the same way a seamstress cuts out the pattern of a dress, or a carpenter parts of a cabinent, he cuts shapes, which are then joined together to form the desired pot. The third method, pinch, is just that. A babl of clay is pinched into a desired form. Throwing, unlike the name implies, is not throwing wads of clay on the floor or something to make a pot. It is many ameteur ceramitists found their great sorrow. One skip, ond wrong move, and involuntary move-l ment, and a lovely symetrical pot canl be utterly destroyed. But the students got along quitg well, despite the difficulties. The dis-' advantages challenged, rather than dis couraged. 3 Their work became a little easier towards the middle of the term, after the new Pug Mill was installed. This is a machine that looks much like a cross between a meat grinder and a cement mixer with a toothpast tube thrown in. lt's purpose is to mix the powdered clay plus clay scraps into a homo- genius workable clay, thereby doing away with the wearisome task of mixing the clay by hand, which does away with the nessesity of plaster bats, shortens the clay preparation time, and generally makes things easier. Now, if someone could only convince Mr. Tobe of the merit of commercial glazes ....... 14 , I -4 sm 1 -T. a it-. N, - X 1, if Z- .1 Q A Lit: 5, 1 , JK: 'HY A - ,-,fi : V a 5.. ,, V K yn I -l ' f- - .

U - . x .of Long belore man had pigments to paint with, or tools to sculpt with, he must have lelt the urge to express his leelings and emotions through some lorm ol sell-expression. And he did so, using the only tool for self-expression he possessed--his body. From this need came dance, and from dance, theatre. Ry thyms grew into music, and musical instruments to accompany dancers. Man learned about form and space from watching dancers. Dance was a very important part of ancient classical civilizations ...,. Roman senators would use dancing as a highly respected form of mass communication. And no one needs to be told of the importance of dance in the Greek civilization: lsadora Duncan got her Tenagra Figures la series of harmonius and expressive movementsl from the ligures from the vases ol' Tenegra, Greece, which was well- known lor its line clays and exquisite pottery. Today, dance has lost much of its importance as a means of entertain- ment to the theatre and cinematic art. But with the coming ol Modern dance, it is slowly but surely regaining its importance as a means of self-expres- sltlfl. Modern dance as we know it was pioneered by lsadora Duncan, lt was she who freed the dancer from the restraints ol traditional classical dance, and made it a lorm ol personal self- espression. lsadora made it so a dancer can dance music as it moves him to dance it, tttil because Popiekta wrote the steps lor the music that way. Says Mis. Schwart7, who teaches the Intermediate lVlodern Dance class at the college, lsaclora was a little unrestrained herself. She believed in lree love, or rather, she didn't believe in marriage. Her theory was that if a man fathered her children, ite would be nice enough to support them, This theory seemed to work pretty well, lor she had two children that she loved very dearly, but who both died in an automobile accident. She didn't possess a tech- nique--rather she had her own style, utilizing natural body line. While she ODER was still perfecting her style, she would stand in front of a mirror for hours on end, trying to find the most expressive movements. lsadora was by no means the bohemian uncultured ninny that most people believed her to be: Why, lsadora practically teethed on the Rubiyatf' Mrs. Schwartz said, 'fHer mother was very culturedg she, Isa- dora, and her sister would tour the countryside, giving little performances of Greek tragedies, and Shakespearean classics. Thanks to her and other pioneers of dance, dance became a personal self- expressive experience. EVERYONE CAN DANCE! lVlrs. Schwartz was very emphatic on this point, Everyone can dance, because everyone can move. Not everyone can be a ballerina, the degree to which you perfect the art is up to the individual, his personal strength, their dedication, even his location--- there are very few dance studios in the Fiji lslands! And she added, Primi- tive cultures, if there was a person with a physical defect like a clubfoot, or if they were lame or crippled, the rest of the tribe would make a dance around that defect. lVlodern man would consider this sick, but it was just another form ol'expression. Ballet is a trully brilliant art. The amount of dedication it takes to be- come competent is astounding... they're like priests and priestesses. They must be willing to give up every- thing to their art, to take on a art which requires so much painful dedica- tion. A master musician may possess a line violin . . .a Stradivarius. But he I6 will only bring it out, perfectly tune and polished for performances. H l .Q it li' il, may have another violin to practical with, and still another to entertain hi, friends with. But a dancer has onlyll one instrument, his body, and it musf always be in perfect tune. I But Modern Dance teaches yot, about yourself. . . in an esthetic way' with rhythym and movement. And il' teaches you about other people too, ill much the way pantomime does. It becomes a jumping off spot foil examining other people, for you be come increasingly aware of othe people and their emotions. ' In her dance class, Mrs. Schwartaif stresses the Duncan approach lSh6 studied Duncan for thirteen yearsji, along with the methods of othelt dancers. But for the most part sh guides rather than teachers. She judge, each student according to their own capabilities . . . I know when Shirley, isn't doing her best, and when Deb-ti orah is trying as hard as she can. Theygt may look the same, but I try to know my students .... There were around eighteen studentll in lVlrs. Schwartz's Intermediate classi- They met every Tuesday from seven to, nine, the number of students varying with flucuateing auditors and visitors., The students ranged from a profession? al belly dancer to a Kindergarten: l teacher, and one boy. He didn't seem! to mind the feminine atmosphere,t though. ' Each class began with an hour-lorigi warm up session where the studentsl jumped, twisted, turned, rolled, andl stretched their bodies into maxiumi l r limberness. Next, there was usually a i itort run-through of locomotive move- tents, and sometimes Mrs. Schwartz nad her students improvise dances rom a record. Other times, there were ndividual dances, like, a short dance o a spoken piece, utilizing the 'hythyms of the words and syllables. Another dance was inspired by an nantimate object. They finished up the term by and performing for the individual dances. ,7- in e I ll if .J if he Samara' gf Qsiiiliitl lil llusfl is much like the tx pit.ll goxelness story.

A retired captain, the loss of his wife has made him bitter and cold. He pays little attention to his seven children except to discipline them. He treats them not like children, but like sailors aboard a ship, and the household staff llsarry lones and Thea Katopodyl like the crew. The Captain's seven children resent their guverness lthey have gotten rid ol several before lVlaria.l, but Maria refuses to be intimidated, and manages to win the children's conhdence dur- ing a thunder-storm, when she come forts them by singing The Lonely Go.ltherd . She wins the Captain's grudging respect, if not his heart las of yetl by refusing to be whistled for on the Bo'sun's pipe like the rest of the staff, and also by refusing to use a whistle to call the children. Complications arise in the form of Captain Von Trapp's fiancee, Else Scraecler lLis.l Ann Grondzikl, a suave, sophisticated business woman. The Captain announces their engagement, the children begin turning towards l LM, bu 'v, Elsa, showing her the gardens and sci, forth. Maria, feeling left out, realizingtil she is in love with the Captain, ancti thinking that the children don't need: her any more, returns to the Abbeyj But she isn't happy at the Abbey, andl the Mother Abbess advises her toi return to the Von Trapp home. A ln the meantime, the Nazi invasion' of Austria has taken place. The Cap-il tain, a staunch patriot, refuses to showll the invaders the slightest courtesy. But' his financee and his friend, Maxi Detweiller lBiII Boswelll try to con- vince him of the virtues of compro- mise in No Way to Stop lt, But the Captain refuses, the engagement is broken off. Maria returns, the Captain asks her to marry him. She agrees, and they sing of their future in An Ordi- nary Couple. They are married two weeks later in' Nonnberg Abbey. The Captain and Maria go off ont their honeymoon. They return a, month later, and the Captain is visited: by a Nazi Admiral lleffCaminitilwho1 orders the Captain to return to service-l IS as a Naval Captain for the third Reich. Luckily, Max has registered the child- ren in a Music festival, and Maria and the Captain both have to sing. The Admiral agrees to let them sing. The music festival takes place three days later. The Von Trapps slip away during their song, So Long,farewell , in which each singer exits individually. They make it back to the Abbey safely, and the Mother Abbess hides them in the garden, They are discover- ed by Rolf lSteve Riderl Leisl's boy- friend who has turned Nazi, but he d0esn't give them away. The Nazi's leave, but they surround the area, The Von Trapp's know they have only one hope of escaping, to go ffl back over the mountains. The Mother Abbess and the Nuns choir sing the Finale Ultimo, Climb Every Moun- tain , and that's the end of the play, as the Von Trapp's leave. It is, of course a true story, roman- ticized and rearranged a bit because of the demands of the musical stage. lt is the story of the Trapp Family Singers, who were quite well known through- out Europe andthe United States. The musical involved many diffi- culties forthe BCC drama department. For one thing, it had to be preformed at the Parker Playhouse, because the Lecture Theatre is much too small for a musical. lt has no 'place for an orchestra lunless the sixteen inch tag, r - i wk .

This meant that the entire sixty member cast plus scenery and cos- tumes and makeeup had to be moved from BCC to Parker Playhouse. Some- how this was accomplished with not even a mascara brush lost. Parker Playhouse meant that the entire cast had to get used to the larger stage and the unfamiliar exits and entrances. Also, they had to get used to working with the sets, as there had been none while they were rehearsing at BCC. Costumes for the leads weren't too much of a problem, but there were thirty nuns who needed habits. And the habits!!!!! Each one had thirteen pieces and it took each nun around twenty minutes to get securely pinned into her costume. And all this for only fifteen minutes on stage! Casting was a problem too. It was a very large cast las casts gol what with the thirty nuns, seven children, dancers, soldiers, guests at the party and such. Seven talented children of the right ages, sexes and sizes were needed. But Leslie Carbia, lLeisell, Gar Hogan llfriedrichl, Mary Stewart Brogley lLouisal, Bobby Summers lKurtl, Nancy Horn lBrigittal, Carol Snyder lhflartal, and Diane Woodle lGretll met the requirements. It was a difficult musical to per- form, all things considered, but it more that lived up to the tradition of dramatic excellence demanded by Miss Nlullikin of her preformers.

Mama Younger, played by Betty Robinson, is a woman, an older wom- an, with a lifetime of heartaches anc experience behind her. She has not had an easy life. She is worn and tired but she has an insurmountable dignity and pride. Her husband, Big Walter has died, leaving the family with a ter thousand dollar insurance check. She wishes to invest the money in a nevi house, she has lived all her married life in a tiny tenement apartment, anc now she wants a nice, quiet little house where her grandson, Travis, car play, and she can raise a little garden Her son, Walter Lee, played by Charlet Rawls, wants to better their lot too but he can't see how buying a nevi house is going to do that. A friend ha: convinced him to invest the money ir a liquor store. He wants to do the best for himself and for his family, and tc do it, he gambles. And he loses. His wife Ruth, played by Barbara james and Freddie DeGral'fenreidt, isa young woman, who will someday be much like Mama Younger. She too has had a hard life, which she has acceptec with a quiet resignation. She isn'l quite sure what she wants. She'll havc to do what Walter does, but she woule like a new house . .. Her sister-in-law Beneatha, playec by Marquetta Lewis, is not quite sc patient. Whereas her mother, lvlama Younger and her sister-in-law Ruth typify the old negro, Beneatha if the new negro, the educated negro with a fierce pride in her race and her culture. She wants everything, and shi wants it NOW. Her eternal question it WHY??? She is in a constant state ol turmoil and rebelliong like every young person she is searching for herself, her role in life, her identity as a humar being. Her interest in the insurance check is that it will help put het If I in the Sunv hrough college. Beneatha has accept- :d her life too...but she's decided .he doesn't like it, and is doing her 'god-awful best to change it, and the ,vorld too if she has to. The check finally arrives after .veeks of waiting. Mama Younger :nows her son Walter is deeply trou- led . . . he has found out that Ruth is regnant and has tried to get an abor- ion. His mother has still refused to ive him the money to invest in the iquor store, and he as far as he is con- erned, the liquor store-deal is his tick- t to a better life, to respectability and life free of poverty. He goes out and ets drunk. . .his mother makes a de- jcision. She takes the insurance money rand makes a thirty five hundred down lpayment on a house.. .a nice little house where she and, her family can have the kind of peaceful, secure life jshe has always dreamed about. The :rest she gives to Walter . . .she tells jhim to put three thousand aside for lBeneatha's education, the rest in a jchecking account for himself and jRuth. j Complications arise. Mama 'Younger's nice little house is in iClyborne Park, an all-white communi- 'ty. She has done this because it seems fthat houses for negros cost twice as fmuch and aren't half as nice. A repre- sentative from the Clyborne Park im- Iprovement society shows up with a ,polite preposition: forget about mov- ling into the house, and the Improve- jment Society will pay them back jeverything they put into the down jpayment and then some. Walter orders lhim out of the house. I Then, while they are bustling about, getting everything ready to move into the new house, they find out: instead of putting the money into the bank like he was supposed to do, Walter has given it to his friend to invest in the liquor store. The friend absconds not only with Walter's cash, but another man's savings. It is a great temptation to Walter not to take Mr. Lindner's offer. . .for- get about moving into the house, and l i get all that money back. But in a last moment of pride and dignity he over- comes the temptation. The new house in their new life, a new hope. A new chance. The play ends there, but you feel somehow, that the story will go on. The Youngers have a reason to struggle. You feel that they'lI make it . . . that everything will eventually, work out. lt's underlying theme is racial. But its all people too. Its realistic ...it doesn't gloss over, it doesn't exagger- ate. You can remember meeting peo- ple like the Younger's. l have never considered myself actively prejudiced . , . but in the last scene, I realized with something of a jolt, that I had been sitting there, so involved with the play, that l had not even been noticing that these people were black. And, the fact that they were black didn't matter. They were peopleg not good, not bad, just people. Raisin in the Sun was some- thing of an experiment in that it was BCC's first all-black cast lexcluding Mr. Lindner, the representative from Clyborne park, which was played by joseph Hamilton.j So that more of BCC's black actors and actresses could perform, Mr. Cavanaugh had a double cast, Ruth was played by Barbara james and Freddie DeGraffenreidtg Travis, Ruth's son, was played by Anthony jones and joseph Carter, Walter was played by Charlie Rawls, Beneatha by Marquetta Lewisg Mama by Betty Robinsong Asagai by Norris Barrg George by Dwelly Sapp, jr., Mr. Lindner by joseph Hamilton and Marc Paonessa, Bc-bo by Michael Burney and Nathaniel Bowen.

Holograms are a startling new invention as well as an art form. They are three-dimensional reproductions created with the lazer. Unlike the faked three-D of the early fifties, Holograms require no special viewing glasses, and enable one to see the subject matter from all angles. Outside the art world, holography is already being used in such fields as cancer research, where three dimen- sional, full colour microscopy might provide new answers, testing devices, advertising, identifications, and in- formation storage. lVlr. George Bolge, Director of the Museum, predicts that: Holograms could be utilized to creat elaborate stage settings for drama or opera which could be The Holographic Camera changed in a flash of light. One could create environmental art with holograms-a holographic labyrith with three-dimensional images in motion, united with sound. lt is feasible to create holographic sculpture which can present visual images in unique ways, put- ting seemingly solid objects into the same space. By embedding circular holograms in the walls of a room, an interior decorator could give his client the visual reality of being within Notre Dame Cathedral one moment, stop the Himalayas the next, and in a moving abstract art work later. The storage capabilities of the hologram are of increasing interest to art historians and museum curat- ors and directors. As the technolo- gy and skills associated with holography develop, great quanti- ties of information may be stored in a single hologram and recona structed for use at will. Coupled with computors for rapid scanning and retrieval, the hologram be- comes an excellent storage medium for visual reference information. Nlr. Bolge feels, however, that holo- graphy is not quite ready for applica- tion to the television. Three-dimen- sional television will come, but not until it is economically feasible to project giant-screen holographic images, otherwise, on the current-sized screen the viewing would be similar to watching a puppet show. At the present times, the creation of a hologram is expensive, tedious, and requires extensive training by the operator. The same, of course, could be said about photography almost one hundred years ago. The field is open, and only time will reveal its full po- tential. In the mean while, the Museum let us in on a glimpse of the future. The beam emitted from the laser is split into two parts by the beam splitter. Each part then passes through a lens which spreads the beam. The reference beam goes directly to the photographic plate. The object beam illuminates the object and its light scatters off the object onto the photographic plate where it interferes with the reference beam. This interference of the two beams causes the pattern which stores the information about the object.

With restless energy he moves from the lecturn to the chalkboard 'outlining the lecture and illustrating it with superb drawings. Webster paints Iwith water colors, oils, and is now us- ' ing acrylic on canvas. He has been - -known to arise at dawn to paint a sun- rise. I Difficult scientil7c names are chan- lnelled into the students vocabulary swiftly and smoothly. He carefully oronounces each unfamiliar name and -points out how easy it is to say and re- lmember them. lsn 't Phasalia so much easier to say than Portuguese-man-of jwar? he reasons. Or, heres a good cocktail party word for you-strongyl- ocentrotus, lsea urchini try that one out on your friends. Like the ocean lwaves, he pounds away until he neaches port. Webster is much at home on the deck of a boat as he is in the class- room. He has been around boats most of his life, taught himself to sail while -still a youngster in Big Walnut Creek, ohio. Over a period of one and half years he and his wife, Pat, spent their week- ends building the sioop they now own f Webster 's eleventh boatj. Five-year- old jib Webster, who helps his father ,on the boat, is learning to sail, has his I own skin diving gear. Webster feels that the social prob- y lems we are seeing all around us. . . Q racial. . . campus unrest. . . pollution , of air, water, wilderness, are merely a lmanifestation or result of man 's at- 1 tempts to adjust to a new kind ofenvi- I ronment. . . largely of his own mak- j ing, Not just biological environment ...birds, trees, but includes man's I laws, social roles, and values. To get some hones answers about teaching bi- ology and to learn a little more about Webster, we cornered him in the labo- ratory and began the interview. Marine Science at BCC: n Interview with Mr. Webster by Mary Eding SS: Could you tell us a little about the marine biology class? What the course of study will entail? Websterg We use a seminar approach interspersed with lectures and plenty of field and laboratory work. Each stu- dent does an independent study, a sub- ject of his or her own choosing, then reports to the class. The report should last about fifteen minutes, followed by a question answer period concerning their subject material. I had one class that I appreciated very much and had a great time with. The subjects seem to come up spontaneously right out of the classroom. At times I would begin a lecture and then a disussion would get started. Sometimes there would be an argument. Once we all ran out of the classroom and down to a lagoon to make an observation to settle an argu- ment. During a marine biology class, I do not stick so closely to a lecture, it's a more casual atmosphere than that of general Zoology. On several occasions I've started lectures in class and then we would go off on a tangent discuss- ing some unscheduled facet of the science. These discussions were very fruitful--a lot of fun--and an awful lot of knowledge came out of them. SS: What are some of the activities of the marine biology class? Webster: We study marine specimens in jars, as well as living beasts in tanks. Many students bring specimens in buckets that they pick up out of the canals and ocean. At one time we had about fifteen to twenty feet of books in the laboratoryg references from the libraries and personal books that stu- dents brought in for the enjoyment of the whole class. Sometimes there would be a scramble for a reference book to settle a difference of opinion. We went on many field trips to study the organisms in their natural habitats. 29 SS: Tell us about these field trips, where did you go? Webster: I remember one sectiong we had field trips every other weekend. We made a few Held trips into the mud flat areas of the Florida Keys, which are rich in nutrients and harbor a vari- ety of animals. We also went to large inner reef areas and isolated coral areas on open 5-and. One class made two dif- ferent neid trips to outer reefs. l am also thinking of some very successful trips taken into the mangrove areas. We studied the development ofa man- grove. SS: How many students can be accom- modated in the class? Webster: The maximum I could take in the class would be thirty, which is an overload so far as availability of laboratory facilities and held equip- ment are concerned. SS: We note that you are the sponsor of the Marine Science Club. What type of student belongs and what do you do there? Webster: lt is an open, interest-groupg anyone may join any of the field trips. Last year, and this year too, the nu- cleus of what you might call mem- bers . . .a rather informal arrange- ment . ..would get an idea of what area in South Florida they wished to explore, and then they would work out the plans. It is relatively easy when the Club has someone around who has already been there, knows the terri- tory and can advise on what is avail- able, what to look out for, suggested routes and stopping places, and even what supplies are available in the vari- ous out-of-the-way places. Also if they want to camp, where it would be advisable to do so, where it is not ad- visable, what kind of insect problems to expect, etc. The members decide where they want to go and lay down a plan. After decisions have been made, they put up notices around campus. You may have seen the yellow bulletins with red wording, Marine Science Club Infor- mational Meeting. They state where the group proposes to go. Interested people sign up: they make up car pools, boat pools or tent pools and food groups. This is all laid out before departure time. If the group is plan- ning a trip in which a student has no interest, he stays away .... Perhaps the next trip will be of interest to him. The dues are two cents. The in- tent ofthe Club is not to raise money but to get out in the wilderness... .to feel and study nature. Some stu- dents come out for very serious study . . . .they might be looking for specif- ic birds, sea shells or certain plants. Others just want to come along to see what it is like out there. Some have never been on the edges of the open sea or in the Everglades, or even in a mangrove creek. Many young people are seeking, today .... if this avenue is not available, then perhaps many will not discover whatever it is they are seeking. Perhaps they have no in- terest in the snails that climb up and down mangrove roots .... they may not be interested in the lizard fish or the coon oysters, they just want to look, to fill aneed or satisfy acuriosity. SS: Do you get paid for this extra work?students who go on these trips say a lot of work and planning goes into them. Webster: My pay is a feeling of really being.. .a higher sense of living. Dr. Tom Dooley said something to this effect . . .he said it better than I ever could, but I have at least a hint of what he must have felt. I get plenty from my students in the classroom too. If I were able to have five uninter- rupted years with young people in the classroom, laboratory and field, I would probably burn myself out. One more thing, I do not consider it work. I get a good feeling when I make someone happy or get a student really interested in a subject. SS: Did you get your first introduc- tion to the marine sciences in the Navy? Did you then become aware of the ocean and its denizens? Webster: To answer your first ques- tion, Yes, I was stationed aboard Ship in San Diego, California. The answer to your second question: No, I dream- ed of sailing the seas when I was a small boy in land-locked Ohio. While in San Diego I went on a seashore picnic at La lolla Cove. The tide went out leaving tide pools. I was amazed at how clear the water was and the vari- ety of strange creatures trapped in the tide pools. That week in San Diego I bought a face plate and on the follow- ing weekend l had another look at the tide pool. It all started there. SS: Then when you were discharged from the Navy, you entered Ohio State University to study biology? Webster: Yes, I earned a degree with a biological science major and a chemis- try minor in the College of Education. I also studied some psychology and sociology. SS: When did you first think of be- coming a teacher? Webster: I wanted to be a teacher when I was a sophomore in high school. SS: Which do you like best: teaching or research? Some animals, at final examination . . . . . . . become extinct. Webster: I have done both teaching and research. The research that I did was really aimed at making a better teacher of myself When I was gradu- ated from Ohio State with an educa- tion degree I did substitute teaching, taught for awhile, then went into research. SS: What are some of the things you have done in the research laboratory? Webster: Well, I assisted Wolfgang Zeiman, a neurosurgeon, suturing mouse scalps after we had opened them and bombarded their brains with cyclotron-accelerated deuterons. This was at Brookhaven National Labora- tory on Long Island. At that time I was studying the uptake and storage of tritiated norepinephrine. We were us- ing a tracer technique to locate the norepinephrine. For three years I was involved in a variety of research projects. SS: Did you do any other biological research? Webster: In the early sixties I studied organisms in Lake Erie., At that time the lake was degenerating rapidly as a result of pollution. I studied under Dr. N, Wilson Britt, of Ohio State Univers- ity, who was involved in limnological- 30 biological research of the shallow we end of Lake Erie. He discovered th the large population of mayfly larv in the lake had been exterminate These larvae were an important part 1 the food web which supported t one-great fish population. These ma fly larvae were killed due to a com nation of several types of pollutio Agricultural pollutants such as ferti izer were entering the rivers an streams from the farms. These poll tants caused an algae bloom--essent ally a population explosion of th algae. The dying algae soon exhauste the supply of oxygen. When the lake oxygen content went down to zer mayfly larvae and many other animal including fish consequently died. Afte that year mayflies were practicall non-existent. I spent six boating sea sons on the lake and did my master' thesis research on a DDT pollutio problem in Sandusky Bay, a part ol Lake Erie oxygen content went down to zero mayfly larvae and many other animal that year mayflies were practicall non-existant. I spend six boatin seasons on the lake and did my mas ter's thesis research on a DDT pollu tion problem in Sandusky By, a parli of Lake Erie SS: Mr. Webster, you did some re search in the arctic region, could you elaborate a little on this and cite some of your experiences there? Webster: I was involved in the third Sukkertoppen expedition to Arctici Greenland as a Iimnological research assistant. The first Sukkertoppen expedition was conducted by the team of scientists back in i937 fromi Osford, England. The second was a survey group from Ohio State Univer sity, who ran through the Sukkertop-i pen ice cap area in 1962. I was on the' third expedition in l964. The most interesting part of the trip for me was that we were involved in a limnologicali study of lakes that were very young lakes that were just uncovered froml the ice and had not long been exposed to OUY atmosphere SS: How were you able to determinei the age of these lakes? Webster: Glaciological and geologicall data reveal their approximate age. Wel would see water lines which shown when big dams had been created by' moraines as well as when they had including fish consequently died. I I later broken, allowing the water level to drop. We could then line-up these events on a calendar, so to SPCHK- SS: Your students are certainly enthu- siastic about your classes. Would you share with us some of your thoughts on teaching? Webster: First of all, I am genuinely interested in people . . . students. I present to them the things I am in- terested in along with the regular course work. I may be a bit biased in what I offer, but I feel that interest is catching and they will learn more on their own if I can get them stimulated. I also try not to kill interest a student already has. I don't consider students working for me, I work for students. l don't believe anyone can fool a student. I am honest with them. Another thing--teaching is an art, and it is my belief that one has to have a talent to teach, just as a painter or an actor has to be talented. By golly! if you don't have the talent you simply cannot learn to teach. A person who wants to teach can gain a lot from a college of education experience for it can refine their innate talent. Also there, one can learn some tricks of the trade, so to speak. I think we can always continue to learng none of us are so perfect that we are ever ready to quit studying. Teaching teaches the teacher. SS: Do you think the junior college is a good place to start the study of the biological sciences--rather than, say, a four-year college? Webster: Yes. Many of the four-year schools are trying to eliminate the beginning courses. The senior institu- tions would rather deal with upper level courses. Certain four-year institu- tions are setting up branches to take care of the freshman and sophomore years. A branch campus of a four-year college is similar to a junior college. These regional campuses are located in the community just as are the junior colleges. SS: The growth of community-orient- ed colleges could lead the communities in turn to expect more from their col- leges. But how about today's student? ls he or she expecting more, not only from the college, but from the teacher? Webster: A student today wants to know what is real. Once in a while a student will ask: What application does that have today? What good is that information to me now? In order to keep the material pertinant I ask myself that question before pre- senting it to the class. When I present material in which l feel they may not see any relevance, I justify by explain- ing some applications. Often an in- structor will fail to communicate the rationale for information to students. This is unfortunate. SS: Mr. Webster, you have remarked in class that seamanship is an asset for marine biologist. As an ex-navy man and the owner of a I9-foot sloop, you probably know how to handle a boat well. Could you tell us a little bit about your boat and some of the trips you have taken. Webster: About ten years ago my wife, Pat, and I built this auxiliary sloop 'T I ' Ti! ,. .!. . hamas I studied the way the people live, their plants, animals and the sur- rounding waters. These Bahamians live close to the earth ...they are beauti- ful people. They are the kind of people that will survive if something really bad happens to our earth. SS: In most high schools and colleges, biology is a required subject, but should a reluctant student be forced to study biology? Webster: l'm biased perhaps. I believe everyone should have an exposure to biology. Our lives and society might depend upon it. It was Konrad Lorenz who said: Expert teaching of biology is the one and only foundation on which really sound opinion about mankind and his relation to the uni- .gq vpwzwv-W. tw - x s'v that we still have in Key Largo. We call her Moku Makai. The name is Poly- nesian for little sturdy craft that sails to the big sea. My son, lib, loves the boat and we all try to spend as much time as possible aboard her. When we moved from 0hio to Key West, we trailered the Moku to Biloxi, Mississip- pi, where she was launched and brought down the Intracoastal Water- way. At Apalachicola we crossed a hundred miles of open water between Dog Island and Cedar Key. We keep the boat at Key Largo at the present time since my family en- joys sailing in that area. Last summer I sailed with the help of one other fel- low to Crooked-Acklin's in the Ba- hamas. I was gone seven weeks and logged over i300 miles. While the Ba- 31 at . Q.: L! Ni! 1 1 ii -. X verse can be built. Philosophical an- thropology of a type neglecting biological fact has done its worse by imbuing humanity with that sort of pride which not only comes before but causes a fall. SS: In closing would you care to express any thoughts as a biologist about man's future? Webster: Man must keep in mind when viewing his highly mechanized, auto- mated, homogenized, reconstituted humanoid society that he is really viewing a biological ecosystem which is subject to final examination and judgment, just as any other biological ecosystem. Natures laws will not be disobeyed. Some animals at final ex- amination . . .become extinct. I . X '. , x ' 'si ' , wg. 1 . .1 ,I .x f .-1 . 'O X 3 'C 7 I 4 Q S g 5:5 QQ' ' K IA , H I Q- .

' ' - 'J on Lindberg, oted Ecologist, ive Warning The earth is 3M billion years old. Life began in the sea and today man must take things from the sea in order to maintain his standard of living. We cannot live without exploitation. We cannot exploit without conservation. To survive we are going to have to learn to live with the two, Thus the theme of the talk in the Lecture Theatre by john Lindbergh, noted ecologist and son of American hero, Charles Lindbergh, was summed up. Lindbergh spoke to a packed house on March 25. Speaking with a rhythmic yet somewhat abrupt delivery, he proved to be an interesting speaker, emphasizing points with his entire body. He was com- posed at all times, answering all questions thoroughly. He related his experiences working on a government project sea farming on the west coast, He brought out some little known facts about our petroleum re- sources, dam production and oil spills. Perhaps most important points brought out were the examples given of how man's own greediness has upset the delicate balance nature has developed over millions of years. He pointed to the near extinction of the blue and white whales and the brown pelicans. Because of the extensive use of pesticides brown pelican egg shells become so fragile that they break before hatching. A major Calif fornia hatchery reported only one egg hatched the past season. Lindbergh worked at on ocean out fall in San Diego's not too long ago, Be- cause of the sewage problem, he had to get all sorts of shots before he could set one foot in the water. San Diego passed an ordinance declaring that sewage was to be put out one mile from the bay, into very deep cold water. The bay improved immediately and very soon afterward marine life had moved back in to the bay In all his particular narrations a gen- eral feeling of optimism pewaded. It was this optimism that especially characteriz- ed the man better than anything. AAUP The how and why of U16 AIl1CI'iC3I1ASSOCi3l1i0Il of University Professors by Donna Rayner The men and women who make up the ,American ,Association of Uni- versity Professors are not a profes- sional caste who care only about immiediate personal interests. Their basic commitment is to the cause of higher education, and to the develop- ment and maintenance of standards of excellence. If students are to be taught effectively, and if knowledge is to be expanded, then all who are involved in the educational enterprise must be free from individual controls. This is the central meaning of our Association. We know that if the life of the mind if to flourish, then it must be free. The above remarks were delivered by Professor David Fellman at the fifty -second annual meeting of the American Association of University Professors QAAUPJ in Atlanta, Georgia, April 29, l966. Professor Fellman stated clearly the purpose of the American Association of Uni- versity Professors: lo give teachers the guarantee ol academic freedom in the cl.tssl'iiti!'T'l. Broward Community College's chapter ol the American Association of University Professors was establish ed in l966. lts first president was lim Kilmer, and its current president, Nlr. lohn Pawlowski, is a teacher ol' Span- ish whose term as President of the AAUP expired April l, l97l. The broward Community Colleges AAUP has been and continues to be a mOst.1Cllt.c'riDC. Among many accomplishments, Broward Community Colleges chapter has been the initial sponser til a pro- posal to establish a faculty senate. The chapter has supported legislation strengthening the quality ofeducation in Florida community colleges. Also, as Mr. Pawlowski says, speakers representing a wide variety of interests have been brought to this campus under the AAUP auspices. The Broward Community College's chapter of the AAUP has provided many services. Members and non- members have from time ti time called upon the local chapter for advice and assistance concerning their academic status and possible violation of aca- demic freedom and tenure. ls the AAUP a militant organiza- tion? Although, as its record on this campus indicated, the AAUP has never hesitated to speak and to act in behalff of academic freeson and tenure, itsl, basic view of the college community is-l heavily commited to the principle ofil shared responsibility. lnstructorS,' administrators, students, and the pub-l lic are seen as partners in the cause ofii quality education for all, not as ad-ri versaries pursuing diverse goals. Re-i marked Mr. Pawlowski. l In sum, Broward Community'si chapter of the AAUP is an active orga-.1 nization dedicated to maintaining thei instructors academic freedom in ther classroom. The Association will flour-i ish if administrators, instructors, and: students give it their support. K 3-l Opposite page, topz Mr. john Pdwlowski.

'slim- ,f ,tv K - K i A 0 0 0 I by Effie Randolph Learning how to learn is the most important lesson one can teach and helping .1 person to help himself is the most important contribution that one individual can give to another, This is the basic pholosphy of the Student Program to Achieve New Spheres jSPANSl which started at Broward Community College in September, l970 . The program, designed to help high school graduates with academic prob- Iems succeed at BCC, opened with 80 students. The college waived registra- tion and tuition fees. This is a way of reaching out the hands of this institution to brighten the lives of other people, President Hugh Adams said. lt would be real easy to operate as an isolated liberal arts institution but quite another to serve the entire community which is what we're trying to do here. Students are recruited from outside agencies, such as the Economic Oppor- tunity Coordinating Group IEOCGI, VISTA, Vocational REhabilitation and the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The program is intended to assist the graduate to develop and improve his skills in order to have a better life, Theodore Taylor, director of SPANS, received his bachelors and masters degrees from Florida A EQ M. He has worked with EOCG setting up a neighborhood youth corp and with Marymount College and EOCG he directed project self-help for under- achievers. From Pompano Beach Senior High School where he was Administrative Dean, Taylor came to BCC in july of I970. Ted Taylor has done an excellent job, President Adams commented. Mr. Taylor is a superior individual, said Elvira Dun- levy, a speech instructor. He under- stands the students, the faculty , and is interested in everything. Seen on her way to class one day, Daphne Lucy jones, a SPANS student during Term I, became very enthusias- tic when asked about the program. The instructors really care about you, which way you're going, your whole life. l went to regular college classes and just couIdn't keep up. Nobody cared, but in SPANS the teachers are really behind you and take you slow. l've always wanted to be an elemen- tary school teacher. Miss jones is now in regular college classes and doing fine. Volunteer teachers from the regular college staff participate in the pro- gram. Before Term I began, Taylor held a three week concentrated work- shop to prepare the staff for the new challenge. Now they meet once a week to discuss problems and share suc- cesses. Mercy Brown, an English in- structor, said, We have a wonderful rapport. We feel free to criticize each other and can discuss anything, Elvira Dunlevy commented, Our weekly meetings are very meaningful. Wherever a student's needs are, we start and do as much individual in- struction as possible, Taylor said. We have classwork, counseling, growth groups, anything we can think of that will help. We want students to feel that teachers are human and that they can sit down and talk. The volunteer teachers are Mercy Brown and julie Koenig, English, Margaret Dunne and Luther Hender- son, Math, Elvira Dunlevy, Speech, Robert Livermon and Stuwart Brown, Social Science, Carol Call, Reading, Frank Sivik, Science, Lawrence Tobe, Art, Frank Branca, PsychoIOgYi Oscar Schmerler, Consumer Education, and Dr. Ronald Narel, Counseling. The faculty is what makes the pro- gram go, said President Adams. They take time to give attention and show concern for the students. The best Christmas present I had was when Ted Taylor brought some SPANS students to a cabinet meeting and each told in his own way how this had made a dif- ference in his life. Teaching in the SPANS program has been a rewarding experience for Mercy Brown. l'm very excited about it, she said. I learned things last 36 term l'm able to use this term. Stu dents appreciate a teacher who makes them work. Also, they've gotten toa point where they're not ashamed of the things they don't know. The pro gram could be improved, she feels, by having all the students taking reading Dr. Ronald Narel feels that SPANS is definitely meeting a need-it is more of a success than some ex pected. He is working with a growth group with emphasis on know thyself and others. l'm very enthusiastic about the group, He said. SPANS has al ready proven its worth and this will be another dimension. l'm grateful for the opportunity I jj .I - gl Q P -,I ri i 5 'i E I - if I to participate and share somethingl have with these students, said Luther Henderson. I haven't talked with any who haven't profited from the pro- gram. SPANS is a great beginning to a solution of one of the major problems of our time, said Margaret Dunne. It is very hard work and I enjoy every minute of it. Considering what could be done with time and facilities to meet this great need, however, I feel there is room for improvement. The response of the students gives great encouragement. She would like to see a well-equipped mathematics labora- tory where students could feel free to come to get help at anytime. She would also like to see students have more time outside of classes. Most are on workships and free time for study is at a minimum. lt's really, really fun, said Elvira Dunlevy. I love them. I don't thinkl could sleep at night if I were not in- volved in this program. To see a pack of scared bunnies who are afraid to express themselves in the beginning and then see them tackle in-depth subjects at the end of the semester is really something. On a Sunday afternoon at the be- ginning of Term ll, Mrs. Dunlevy and six students went to the Church of God in Deerfield Beach. The students presented an informal discussion ex- Il I. I I I I i I i lj I i gl i ii ' Ll I i I I I I 4 l r F I ,essing their thoughts about SPANS, w and why they got involved and I w it helped them to find their ident- y. They were wonderful, said Mrs. unlevy. It's a good way to recruit thers because they can really relate to iie students. I She feels that the program needs .lore financial support, wherever it in be obtained-local, state, andlor ijederal. She also agrees with Mercy frown that all students should take leading and that teachers should be 'lore demanding. Courses are offered in language llcills freading, writing, listening and lieakingj, mathematics, and human '-elations. A class in personal and social ilanning is designed to help the stu- gent acquire functional data about imself in order for him to make more :alistic self-appraisals and to deter- iine attainable goals and specific goal ,irection. The world is competitive 1d one of the goals of SPANS is to dequately prepare students to bmpete. l Seated at a long table in a con- :rence room in the Student Services uilding, some former SPANS stu- 4ents expressed their feelings about ie program. Before coming to BCC .ose Ferrer, who had worked in a epartment store, was in the Voca- fonal Rehabilitation Program. I al- 'ays wanted to go to college, she said, and SPANS opened the door for me. The encouragement of the teachers gave me the push to go on. Mrs. Brown and Mr, Henderson really helped. I didn't think the program would be that fulfilling. She is in reg- ular classes now and will major in Spanish and minor in French and looks forward to going on to the Uni- versity of Miami or Columbia Uni- versity in New York. She plans to work in the foreign service or translat- ing. I took all business courses in high school, Dottie Hickey explained. I wanted to continue my education but not in business. My problems were mostly in math and SPANS really heIped. She is majoring in psychol- ogy, plans to go to the University of Connecticut, eventually get a master's degree and work in counselling. Betty Franks smiled and said, HSPANS helped me understand what college is really about. I didn't know if I could pass. I had taken a business course but I wanted to go to college and do something else. She is major- ing in social welfare and plans to be a social worker. Helen Hardge hadn't planned to go to college. She had taken a business course and had been out of school about five years before coming to BCC. I wish everyone had a chance to go through SPANS first, she said, her brown eyes sparkling. I was out a long time and it got me back in the habit of studying. I like the close rela- tionship of teachers and students. She is majoring in English and wants to teach in junior high school. SPANS is very nice and very help- ful, said Sherrick Thomas, My mother and sister told me about it. I was planning to go to junior college in Los Angeles but decided to come to BCC. I am enjoying the program more the second term than the first. I was just getting used to it. He plans to major in police science and would like to be an agent for the FBI. Of the 80 who started in SPANS, 4l are continuing their college training and I5 are in the program for another term. Some have gone back to work, some are taking vocational training, and a few withdrew. Term ll began with 85 students and by the middle of February all were still participating. For the future Taylor hopes to ex- pand these services beyond the limit of I00 students as set forth in the pro- posal. We recognize the need for dif- ferent materials, supplies, and approaches in order to work with this kind of student. Staff awareness of their learning styles is a vital necessity.

The 520.00 for my first lesson will it be worth it? With my luck I'll probably crash. I turned right and fol- lowed the long four laned road to the airport. Switching off the ignition, slamming the door to my sports car, I went toward the southeast corner of the vast airport. Reaching the south- east corner, I stopped inside a small reddish-brick building to be greeted by Nlr. Olbert, my instructor. Mr. Olbert was cheerful, classically dressed and very articulate. Well, young man, are your ready for your fjrgr lesson? I guess, guess, I am, Nlr. Olbert. He pointed See that blue little flying machine, that's the plane we are going to use, explained Mr. Olbert. Yeah, you're kidding me, I said with surprise. No young man, I start all novice students with that little buzzing grasshopperf' After introductions, Nlr. Olbert and I discussed schedules, requirements and other phenomena. After a hour long conversation, we decided that we would get down to business in the next hour session. Somewhat scared, proud, nervous and eager, I waited four long days for my next meeting with Mr. Olbert. Monday morning finally came for my first airborne lesson. He led me through a preflight inspection, where we checked the fuel and oil, kicked the tires, inspected the wings, radio antennae and rudder and looked the propeller over. I climbed into the piIot's seat, my heart automatically gaining double beats. It was so quiet in the cockpit I was certain Mr. Olbert could hear it. But he was routinely radioing the tower: Ground control, Cessna IOI4, ready for taxi instruc- tion, leaving the pattern. I was afraid to touch anything. I just sat there with a blank smile and listened and watched Mr. Olbert calm- ly and with much ease taxi the plane down the runway. Cessna IOI4 clear for take off ' said air traffic ground control. All instruments go, enormous fuel jets shot exploding ignited fuel rapidly into the two huge combusting ram engines, and the high pitched scream- ing howl of power-packed engines thrust the light craft forward in con- tinous accelerating velocities driving us back into our individual seats. We went like a bat out of hell down the runway while landing lights flashed instantanously by like Roman Candles and once segmented painted runway lines rushed by continously . . .glance out the left side window, once clear image now a total blur, feeling a pull against gravity and partial weightless- ness, the tips of both wings bending a fraction of a degree upward. Two seconds later, the nose was off the concrete surface, a slight lift and we were airborne. As we ascended with great speed we entered various cloud layers. Some layers simulated huge masses of soft white fluffy cotton floating endlessly without direction or destination in the indefinite blue skies. Other layers looked like smoke stacks bellowing dark gray fog vertically into the sur- rounding area. Every where I looked were clouds of different patterns and colors. Each cloud conducted its own pattern for- mation of converting itself into another undesignated shape, mysti- cally rolling and floating beautiful heaven. With beautiful clouds and beautiful skylines. Everything was beautiful. My momentairly relaxation ended abruptly when Mr. Olbert said, take the wheel to the left and push on the left rudder pedal, I did it! I did it! I straightened it out with the horizon. Now balance it out. Get the nose up. That's a little too far. Nose down. Not too far. That's fine. Learning to co-ordinate my feet with my left steering hand was diffi- cult. We headed back to the airport, 40 by Ivan Kruse L j in I and Mr. Olbert made a perfect landin I wondered will I ever be able tod that? ' The hanger was full of laughte when we walked in - a fellow studen. had just finished his first solo flight and was smiling laughing, swingin and waving his arms as if he had just struck his first oil well. l'Il always re member that first lesson -it was a beautiful exhilerating experience. The next few lessons passed quicklyg as we practiced and practiced I became more confident of my turns acents decents touch and goes, prac-i ticing takeoffs and landings and learn-4 ing to keep a safe distance from other aircraft in the area. It was a big start and it was great. By my sixth lesson I was more than just confident. I had acquired skill for touch and goes, takeoffs and landings. Of course the landing wasi the most difficult. There were so many things to remember: carburetor heat on as you fly past the intersection for the runways: power off when the run-I way is at your shoulder: don t forget the trim tab which I often forgot . But with each additional lesson, landings and takeoffs were a little easier. I could pick out traffic pretty well, I knew when to turn the carbu retor heat on and shut off the power. I sometimes even heard the tower. It wasn't so much, Can I ever do this alone? as it was When will I do this alone? Lesson after lesson passed by and there wasn't a sign of any kind for an opportunity to solo. Every les son was the same routine-practice and practice. One day Mr. Olbert slid in beside me and we taxied out.Mr. Olbert calm ly said. Pull over to the side of the runway. I pulled over, he opened the door, hopped out, asked me if I had any questions. I said, about what? Young man, you're going to solo. He picked up the radio and said, Ground control, I'm sending this young man on his first solo. Ques tions? I thought ofa million, but noth- ing came out except, Do I use the same runway? Nlr. Olbert smiled again, assured me about the runway, reminded me to call ground control for taxi instructions back to the run- way and waved toobye. I was alone. My voice quivered as I called ground control and started to taxi to position. I then lined the plane up, pushed in the throttle, gasped as I went tearing down the runway and lifted the nose. I was in the air alone. There was no fear: I knew I wasn't going to crash, but I was as tense and nervous as I had been the very first day -more so, I was hot . . . beads formed on my brow but I didn't care or think of anything as simple as opening an air vent. I just kept looking for traffic and listening to the radio and doing my routine manipulations. The planes in front of me were flying much wider patterns than usual and I found myself too close to the plane directly ahead of me. I came closer and closer, gaining more speed, but why? Yes, let off on power, pull the nose up and pray. Slowly it worked. Now my spacing between traffic was fine, and so I heard IOI4 cleared for landing. I pre- pared for landing don't forget the tab, I let up power at the shoulder of the runway descending, descending more now, almost to the tree tops: I touched the runway, I balloned, I came in high, I balloned because of it and landed hard. But I had made it and I was proud. I taxied to the hangar and was greeted by Don, who was holding a solo certificate. Here! Con- gratulations, you earned it. I floated all day. I wanted to tell the world what I had just accom- plished. I fumbled for words to de- scribe my exhilaration, the triumph, the beauty, the freedom on a small scale. I must have felt like appollo - - that same week. Then the realization came, I had fallen in love with the skies. Transportation is our nations largest industry and involves one dollar out of every five dollars in the U.S. economy. lt is anticipated in the next 20 years transporation in the U.S. will double its present size. For those looking for aviation ca- reer opportunities the field is wide open, but the job applicant must have the required technical and educational backgrounds. There is a fast growing need for pilots, mechanics, sales per- sonnel, flight instructors, dispatchers, linemen, production, engineering, specialists and managers in all aviation fields. With this in mind, BCC offers a two-year course in commericial avia- tion leading to an Associate of Science Degree. The student has the choice of two programs: career pilot and avia- tion management. Recently on February 27th, BCC flight team performed extremely well at the National intercollegiate Flying Association Southeast Regional Air Meet at Tamamania Airport. Gary Gratton, Captain of the BCC took ist place in spot landing. The landing con- test involved student pilots landing through precision and accuracy on a painted line placed on the airstrip. BCC also placed in a flour bag drop contest. The bag's ingredients were a mixture of flour and sand, dropped from an altitude of 200 feet to a target on the ground. The BCC students ol aviation re- cieve the desires and rewards of avia- tion. Being a pilot of a plane involves many exciting and thrilling experi- ences, Flying requires skill, achieve- ment and confidence. The pleasures and rewards are numerous and they should be touched: they should be touched by you. lfyou are at all moti- vated by the though of flying, then the experiences are for you to earn.

Although the initial reaction was less than satisfactory, there was a definite reason behind the change. Broward Iunior College land other iunior collegesl had reached a point where a maiority of the students and members of the community had come to accept Broward only as a junior college by delinitionp a stepping stone for students who wished to pursue a four-year education in a senior college. Although Broward does serve this function quite well, it is not the only purpose behind or alternative Broward has to olfer. Ready to shuck this stereotype BIC became BCC, a community college. Broward also provides educational opportunities for students who do not plan to complete a four-year degree program, but who can wish to profit from the pursuit of a single or two-year program of health, technical, semiprofes- sional or occupational education which is beyond the high school level. The offerings to students are not often realized to their fullest extent. And believe me, BCC has an incredi- bly wide variety of programs for students in many fields. All are taught by competent instructors, many of whom devote their lives to teaching and others who work in the community, but take time to teach their applicable knowl- ALLIED HEALTH TECHNOLOGY One of the least known, yet one ofthe most important divisions at Broward is Allied Health Technology. At first glance one does not know if the allied modifies health or technology, Let me assure you, technology is the word and there are five areas or technologies involved. john Brett is the chairman. The Medical Assisting Program is one of the live areas offered to the student. With new advances in medicine and more people with less doctors to care lor them, the role ol the medical assistant is becoming increasingly important and more varied. Her responsibilities may encompass either an administrative clinical or technological facet. It is important that she be knowledgable in all three. For this purpose Broward offers a number ol medical assisting courses enabling the interested student to obtain an Associ- ate ol Science Degree in medical assisting. Equally important lor the same reasons above is the role ol the veterinary medical assistant. A number' of paral- lel courses with the medical assisting program are offered to those who wish to enter this lield. The nursing program is designed to prepare both men and women lor careers in the nursing lield. One may enter' the associate degree program or the pre-nursing program. Graduate nurses are also given opportunity to continue their education through seminars, workshops, and special educational programs. edge to students who also wish to enter that particul field. Because our college is committed to the ideal of ini vidual worth and the dignity one must possess to realize ones full potential, there is an underlying philosophy in which both young and old are provided with educational opportunities that will tend to develop them into people with a purpose, useful satisfied individuals able to cope with the stresses and responsibilities of our society. Broward also provides programs for students who wish to enrich their cultural background . ..Courses in litera- ture, art, music and others are taught in different depart- ments ofthe college. Students who wish to enter a field in mathematics or science have innumerable classes to choose from. Comparatively Broward is a very well-stocked institu- tion with enough equipment in each department to provide an excellent education and working experience which in many cases is equally as important as written knowledge. Because students so often lack familiarity with their school for one reason or another, Silver Sands has briefly prepared some information on a number of the various divisions and departments at Broward and simply explains what is offered to the interested, maybe indecisive student. it w Radiologic Technology prepares an individual to be- come an X-ray technologist. Clinical work is done in various local hospitals while the student can take certain courses in radiological science at BCC. lt takes 28 months of hard study and actual hospital work before the technologist is prepared for employment. This includes 2,000 hours of internship. A new X-ray machine has been purchased this past year to enable students in advanced technology an ample opportunity for study. Respiratory therapy is the final technology offered at Broward. It involves the treatment of respiratory diseases and disorders employing the usage of various types of equipment such as respirators and generators. l BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION I believe it was Shakespeare for was it Ethel lVlerman?l who said, There are in business three things necessary knowledge, temper, and time. Broward's Business Administration division cannot supply the last two, but if it is knowledge you are searching for, then you came to the right place. Broward offers courses in five different areas for students who want a four-year degree, or for students who wish only an associate degree. There are also courses for employees who wish to update their existing skills. Philip Trees serves as chairman of the division. Business Administratin is a rapidly growing area as more and more specialized courses of study are being offer- ed every year. Courses in accounting, business administra- tion, economics, mid-management and secretarial sciences are offered. just this past year 40 new classes were offered. Many new specialists have been hired to teach the courses of study which have been added or expanded. These cover a gamut of different areas including real estate, traffic management, banking career opportunities and fashion merchandising. Approximately 30 individuals have SECRETARIAL SCIENCE Ahhh, yes! I can see her now! A shapely blond, hair pulled back, hornerimmed glasses, and a nice paid of legs. Take a letter, Miss jones. Of course, my qualifications for a secretary are not quite up to par in today's world of super-business. The truth is, BCC's Secretarial Science Department will provide the aspiring, young hopelul with an excellent educational background in secretarial knowl- edge, in order to meet the fast pace ofthe modern world of busines. Doris Horton serves as department head. A dictionary definition of science is: Hsystemized knowledge derived from observation, study and experimen- tation carried on in order to determine the nature or principles of what is being studied. As a science, secretarial science involves a definite systematic course of study for students who hope to earn a bachelors degree. An Associate of Arts degree can be achieved under BCC's pre-Secretarial Science program. The Associate of Science degree can be earned in Broward's numerous two-year secretarial programs. If you have ever thought of becoming a medical secretary, or a legal or executive secretary, then BCC's two-year secretarial programs are for you. given up much of their time to teach students part time in their various fields, A great deal of new equipment had been added to the division. Stenotype and keyboard equipment, electronic calculators and cassette players are just part of the ine creased mechanization of Business Administration. Another program in which a student can receive an Associate of Science Degree is Broward! Airline Careers program. It has been planned for students who wisla to pursue a career with an airline as a stewardess, secretary or some other office position. It serves a special purpose in that it encourages aspiring highfschool girls interested in a job as a stewardess to continue in college until they are old enough to qualify while equipping them with a strong liberal arts background giving them a greater chance to qualify. Other courses open for secretary hopeluls are the one- year secretarial programs. The stcretarial certificiaate and the clerical typist certificate programs are oflered. It you belonged to Vocations Office Education in high school, Broward otfers a one-vear program designed for the conv tinuation of education and training ot VOE students who had average or better grades. The Associate degree in Secretarial Teachers Aide Education was designed to prepare school secretaries and teacher aides for working. The courses are directed tow ard the improvement ol communication skills as xxell as the development of understanding the nature of our form ot government and the nature and role of public education in our democratic society. COMMUNICATIONS I' Iva, ,lamp The Communications function is not a Department, but a Division. A Division is a grouping of compatible De- partments into a single organization designed to best sup- port the various departmental disciplines and faculty members. Under the Communications Division is English, Speech, Modern Foreign Languages, Reading and journal- ism. This division, under the leadership of Bernard Campbell who serves as division chairman, is the largest academic division on camptis. The main objective of Communications is to provide an organization for the various language communications skills while assuring their administrative, personnel and materiel support. The English, Speech and Reading Departments, which are discussed below and on the opposite page are regular departments, while journalism and Developmental Reading are areas, the differences being in the overall scope of the course ol study and the number of courses offered. The Area of journalism offers a number of different courses including those in writing, editing, and photograph- ic journalism. A journalism lab course is also offered for students who wish to work on the staff of the Phoenix in some capacity. It is not a class one can breeze through, but it is rewarding and beneficial to students who wish to enter the field of journalism, Through the journalism area the student publications, Phoenix, P'an Ku and Silver Sands, have an academic sponsor. It furnishes the equipment and materials used in preparing the publications for printing, and the sponsors who work with them in all of the worry, the detail and the sheer ellort that is inherent in the final product. The division does not supply the money for the actual printing. That comes from student activities lunds. The Area of Deveopmental Reading is offered only to students who have achieved an overall reading level at the 60 percentile or better on a national college reading test. The development ol analytical reading and thinking, and continued growth rate as well as critical reading ability are some of the things stressed. ENGLISH X The main objective of the English department is to assist students to express themselves logically and coherent- ly in writing, and, in the case of literature, to serve as a foundation in the Humanities. It was not until I read this that I understood why the English department comes under the division of Communications. Mr. Rigg is the head of the English department. There are thirteen course offerings in the English department. Six of these courses are literature courses and the other seven are in basic skills, composition and tech- nical and creative writing. However, the specific objectives of each course are constantly being modified to bring more relevance into each course. Basic Communication courses, 094 and 094 in English have been instituted this past year for local credit only. Students who do not qualify for English lOl will be placed in O94 or 094. O94's main objectives are to assist the stu- dent in identifying grammatical and sytactical functions and to produce specified grammatical constructions at sentence level. The main objectives of O95 are to provide training in writing short expository compositions using the skills learned in O94 supplemented by training in library and dictionary use. The literature courses offered are varied. American, World, and English literature courses can be taken as well as cultural-literature courses that are a part of the foreign language department. One of the most innovative of the English courses is English IO4. lt combines writing, individual speaking, and group discussion experiences utilizing as basic subject material man's relation to his environment. This particular method of organization encourages student approach to the fundamental aspects of ecology from the viewpoint of whatever field he happens to be interested in fwhether it be medicence, law, business science, education, etc.j Emphasis is placed on abstracting and research, often of a primary nature. lt is hoped this course will stimulate student interest and conversly, outside interest.

However, not many individuals are too well-versed in all three languages. But if you are a student at Broward, it is not beyond possibility to become so, BCC's Modern Foreign Language department offers courses in all three language areas. lVlr. Kempton is department head of the lVlodern Foreign Languages department. During the period in which students register for courses, all students who have had at least a year and half of a foreign language in high school are required to take a special placement test if they wish to continue in their particular language. The placement test determine the suitable level of study for the particular student. If a student transfers from another college he should continue with the next equivalent sequential course he intends to take, If a student is interested in a particular country he need not be restricted to studying only the language. Literature and culture courses are also offered to students who wish to delve into a particular national heritage that interests 'hem. This coming year BCC will institute a new language course, Russian. lVlr. Curry, new staff member this year will teach the course which will hopefully be the first of many Russian language and culture courses to be offered. One of the most rewarding programs Broward's language department established is the lO4 program. Stu- dents are given the opportunity to travel to foreign countries and learn the language and culture of the countries visited for credit hours. This summer groups are planning to go to France and Spain. The credits vary from one hour to three depending upon the length of stay in the country. Next summer it is hoped that a group will go to Germany as part of the German lO4 course. The International Foreign Language Organization is an organization open to students of foreign languages as well as other interested students. SPEECH The packed-in audience comes to a hushed silence as the stage lights are slowly brighten. The podium is venterecl in the middle of the stage and the microphone is working fine. The stage manager comes up to you and says, Youre on! Gasp! What can you do? Well, if you had enrolled in one of BCC's speech courses, the chances are you would have everything in control. The division of speech actually involves four areasg speech, whose extracurricular offshoot is forensics and Debate, Oral lnterpetations, whose offshot is Reader's Theatre, speech correction and radio and television. Don Nichols, coach of the Forensics team, is department head of speech, ln the introductory speech course, the student prepares various types ol speeches over the course of the term, evaluating speech habits, platform behavior and critical listening as well. The student becomes aware of feedback and learns how to combat stage fright, Students who wish to continue in speech possiblx as a major also take argumentation and debate courses, as xxell as courses in voice and diction, ll' interested in participating in intercollegiate forensic competition there is a lab for which a student may get one hour of credit. Oral interpetation is the oral analysis and interpetation of various forms ol' literarute. This course is not only excellant for speech maiors but English nraiors as well. A Reader's Theatre Lab is offered serving the same purpose as the Forensics lab. Speech correction involves the reasons behind speech problems of pre-school and elementary school children. lt offers an excellent oppourtunity for education maiors to understand the speaking problems of youngsters. Broward's radio and television courses bring the student right into the studio where he is able to applx oratical principles in setting, lighting, sound, direction, preforming, and camera operation. Students may also learn phonetics of the English Language in another' interesting course offered.

This is just some of the complicated information you might pick-up if you were enrolled in one of the many courses offered by Bro- ward's Mathematics and Physics department. It has a fine department head in Mr. Rhodes. The mathematics curriculum has course offerings that cover a variety of needs. Prerequisite courses in physics and engineering are offered to students. Graduation require- ments for transfer students generally specify at least one three hour course in mathematics so for the most part the Math and Physics department serves the needs of most of the school's students, ln deciding what math course is best suited for you, high school records, scores on placement tests and individual goals are generally taken into considera- lion. Courses cover an extensive area. They begin with basic study courses for students who had difficulties with mathe- matics in high school. These courses are specially designed to correct whatever deficiencies in mathematical back- ground that a student carried over to college from his high school days. BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE Perhaps dissecting assorted frogs, pigs, maybe an occ- asional lriend is high on your list of fun things to do. lfso, then we have iust the department for you---Biological Sci- ence. Seriously, Biological Science offers a variety of differ- ent courses of instruction. The department is headed by an enthusiastic Mr. Harner. The department itself falls under the Division of lNlathematics and Science. Not all students are interested in totally immersing themselves in biology, but many wish to talse a biology course to either meet their science requirements or simply because they have a particular interest in the scienctilic principles which esplaine some ol the things we talse for granted, such as breathing, eating and growing. For these students, Nlrrclein Principles in Biology and the Biology Lab that goes with it is what is oflered to meet these needs. For students who wish to continues their study in bio- logy or those who are maioring in biology, courses in gener- al botany and general foology are offered. Another course, Marine Biology, dillerentitates to an even degree, offering study of marine lile. This course, taught by Mr. Webster, involves a good deal ol outside laboratory study and col- lection trips to various parts of south Florida land and sea- side, which is a marine biologists paradise. .usa AQ? wr Math IOO, a general education course in mathematics teaching basic algebraic principles, is generally recommend- ed for students who only need a single semester of mathe- matics. Other college mathematics courses include college alge- bra, computer mathematics in which the student works in a lab with computers and slide rule mathematics. The mathe- matics carry through to Calculus and Differential Equa- tions. In the physics field, the courses are designed specially to meet the needs of students majoring in practically any Held. Physics courses have been aimed at the needs of the pre-medical student, engineering student, physical science student as well as the technical science student. I x J.: .- ' .il '-ffff, i ' 3 .- U- '91 E . Q . '- if .- -ll Elementary biology courses are also offered which were designed to add to the skills of the student. There are two paramedical courses for those entering the medical field, It combines physical science and chemistry with the biological principles introducing microbiology and physiol- ogy. Biological Science is in the process of developing new curriculum in cooperation with technical education in the lield ofenvironmental conservation, air pollution and water pollution. Also in the planning stages is a program of au- dio-tutorial self instruction. It is hoped that by january i972 a biological labora- tory will be in use at the North campus in Pompano. PHYSICAL SCIENCE Imagine yourself stranded on a strange planet in outer space. You have a fully equipped laboratory on a small but attractive lake and seeds to grow crops, but you do not know where you are, whether the seeds will grow or if you can drink the water. Stuck? Not if you had been enrolled in BCC's Physical Science courses.Astronomy, Chemistry, En- gineering and Geology are all offered at Broward to the student interested in physical science. William Bailey is de- partment head. And of course one never knows when one will be stranded on a strange planet. Maybe next week. Astronomy students at Broward are more fortunate than astronomy students elsewhere, because Broward's Buehler Planetarium is one of the finest in South Florida. Two fine instructors round off the course of study. If rocks happen to be your thing, then BCC's Geology courses are for you. Physical Geology deals mainly with the study of rocks, minerals, land forms and geologic agents. In Historical Geology, the follow-up course, students go into detailed study of the geologic record and some elementary field work is done. General chemistry courses are offered to students inter- ested in obtaining a background in fundamentals. There is also a paramedical science course, quantitative analysis course and an organic chemistry course offered. The organ- MUSIC There was once a time when BCC possessed very little in the way of a music departmentg what little we did have was located on the bottom floor of the gym, and consisted of a twenty-five member choir and three instructors includ- ing a division chairman, no musical instruments to speak of lexcept a pianoj, very, very few music courses, and NO MUSIC STANDS!! Today, BCC's music department is one of the largest in the state's junior-Community College system. In fact, Mr. Woodle spoke confidently of BCC's having the largest music department in the Community College system within the next ycar or so. Instead of the twenty-five member choir they once had, there is now the seventy-member College Singers, and the Chamber Choir, which number twenty singers, plus the new Opera Workshop lsee storyj. And you might say the musical curriculum had improv- ed somewhat, with the Symphonic Band, the Symphony Orchestra, and the jazz Ensemble. BCC now had l0O music majors lstudents actually go- ing into music as a professional careerj, not to speak of the non-music majors enrolled in music classes. Most of this drastic improvement is due to Mr. Woodle himself. He came to BCC in l963, after teaching a short time at Newman College in Tennessee, and has been here ever since. Besides all his other duties, Mr. Woodle has also been Choir and orchestra and the voice coach in many of the musicals the Drama Department has performed. Those who ic chemistry lab has been using Beckmann Recording lnfra- red lor the first time this year. Also a spectrex spectro- photometer, which is a fascinating instrument which can compare two light spectrums to determine their intensities, is being used in geology and chemistry labs. Two Engineering courses are offered at Broward. Engl' neering drawing involves the use of drafting instruments. You need a background in algebra before you can take the course. Descriptive geometry is interesting in that it in- volves visualifation in studying problems of the point, line and plane in order to aid the student in his ability to think in three dimensions. NN 3' attended the Sound of Music will remember the fine Nun's choirg many of these girls and women had had no formal musical training, could not sight-read music, and had never sung in a group. Plus, Mr. Woodle coached the lead singers. But what of Mr. Woodle himself? Mr. Woodle's taste in music, understandably, lean to- wards the classical. Oddly enough, he has no faxorite classi- cal composer, only preferences. Thex all have their good points. He admitted. l-le enjoys all types of music, he likes many of the modern composers such as Bert Bacarach. If there is a tx pe of music he doesn't enjoy, it's the Acid Rock ...... l try to listen to it. He said, But sometimes, it's hard. There is some that has an emotional or contemporarx merit, but musically, much of it is just one or txxo major chords with a strong beat, Not what I would consider har- moniusly pleasing. ENGINEERIN TECHNOLOGY PUBLIC SERVICES X ,-r-..n. as' The Public Services division encompasses four com- plete and diverse programs of study. james McGowan serves as division chairman. The programs include Fire Science Technology, Hotel-Restaurant-lnstitution Administration Technology, Landscape Technology, and Police Science Technology. At one time or another in our youth most of us har- bored a burning desire to become a fireman generally because of the excitement involved. Nevertheless, Fire Sci- ence at BCC is quite exciting although a bit more involved than our youthful fantasies generally depict. Students tak- ing the courses delve into all areas involved including fire administration, rescue practice and procedure and even the detection of arson. Although there is no lab involved, sem- inars are conducted by prominent persons in the fire sci- ence field. Fact: About 22,500,000 visitors spend approximately 56.2 million annually in the Sunshine State. Now with those kind ol figures it is only sensible to assume that Bro- ward's Hotel-RestaurantInstitution program is one of con- siderable importance to this area. The truth of the matter is the program is important and inwardly much more complex than it may appear. Among the various aspects covered by the course are food service, business math, salesmanship and hotel law. By the way, did you know that BCC also has its own expertise Hot-mot team las they are referred in cul- inarv circlesl. Another area ol considerable relevance, expecially in the South lflorida area, is Landscape Technology. In an area ideally suited for the growth ol natural beauty, this pro- gram can be sell-satislyingand downright interesting. Horti- cultural botany, pest control and landscape design are iust three of many areas one may study. Did you know that before a Broward County police- man can pin a badge to his chest, he has to have a minimum ol 500 hours ol study. With that kind of a background be- hind him those dumh cops do not seem quite so dumb. BCC's Police Science program is one of the fastest growing on campus. Courses ollered vary from criminal law right on down to traffic problems. Police ollicers who have already completed their knowledge of police science. Plans for a Criminal lustice institute have been worked out and it's only a matter ol time heloi e construction of the building begins. lt is hoped that there will be a coordination of study of police, prosecution, courts, corrections, probation and parole. The division of Engineering Technology is dividedifm five departments, Aerospace Technology,Contract and Civi Engineering, Data Processing, Drafting and Design, arte Electronics. Ormand Whipple is the chairman of this divi sion. Aerospace Technology provides opportunities for stu dents to enter a career in the aviation industry, whetheri be in an administrative capactiy or as a pilot or air traffic controller. This department also boasts an l8 member fligh team that has placed well in local meets. The Contracting and Civil Engineering departmen teaches the student basic fundamentals of engineering tech nology and surveying. A mechanical engineering progran has also been added, as well as a new soil test lab. Data processing permits the student to work with 40 IBM computers, while faining knowledge of the concepts, ftinda mentals, and techniques involved in the electronic processini of data. Architectural Drafting and Tool and Design are the divisions of BCC's drafting program, which teaches the stu- dent a prohciency in both the terminology and skills. If building and testing electrical devices and electronic systems is your interest, Browards electronics department is for you. A T. V. analyst and microwave equipment have been added to the department in order to expand the total amount of courses offered. The prevailing purpose behind the Engineering Tech- nology department is providing the interest student with enough basics and fundamentals in his particular field to enable him to obtain a iob readily upon completion of his course of study.

K ah! il Gibran With today's ever complex world of expanding goals and introspective dis- coveries, the Counseling and Develop- mental Services Department concerns itself with serving in a supporting role to the college community. Broken into the areas of advisement and counsel- ing, the department strives to assist each individual as he pursues areas of growth in personality development. To fully use the potential and talents of the Counseling and Developmental Services staff, the department has de- veloped an advisement corps to ex- pressly handle academic advisement. This area is handled by professional a- cademic advisors. Presently this staff of four llanet Krop, Linda Pinheiro, Lynda Waldron, and loan lVlcLeanl deals with advisement, schedule changes, program planning and detail- ed explanations of degree, certificate and non-degree programs. Each advisor works with students on an individual basis guiding him in choosing classes for each of the four individual terms making up the academic year. In dis- cussing academic plans, the advisor and student enter into areas which may affect the students academic per- formance. Long range educational ob- iectives, work schedules, extra-curricu- la involvement, test scores, previous grades, career aims and other influen- cing factors all enter into the decision made by the advisor and student advis- or is to offer quality information on all phases of academic courses and pro- grams. It is also the responsibiligy of the advisor to refer students to avail- able written material on needed infor- mation and to introduce the student to services available from contact with members ofthe department's counsel- ing staff. Counseling encompasses a wide range of responsibilities and functions. Re- moved from the mechanics of advise- ment, the counselors lRon Narel, Phyllis Rhodes, Doris Sams, Tom Park- er, Gib Cameron, Ray Gover, Leon Watts, Bunny Wagner and Ted Taylorl have expanded their services to include both individual and group experiences for members of the College Commun- ity. The counselors are now also in- volved with meeting students in the in- formal atmosphere of the hospitality center as well as in their individual of- fices. A counseling interaction be- 49 1 tween student and counselor may deal with a variety of personal concerns Drugs and the draft, abortions and family problems, grades and careers, accomplishments and iobs are only a few of the ideas presently being dis- cussed by counselors and their stu- dents. Test results and occupational in- formation are also important features of counseling discussions. Information giving, problem discussing and genuine helping relationships are serxices strix- ed for by each ofthe counselors. Fur- ther discussion of the counseling ser- vices is presented in the following comments by Dave Cox, Director of the Counseling and Dexelopmental Services department. One of my maior personal-pro fessional goals is to diminish role- playing and stereotyping in hu- man interaction. More often than not, these tend to get in the was of human relationships, and, to may thinking, exposure of oneself as a human being can make a vital contribution to the enhance- ment of learning and individual development. o I J I ,I Mr. Cameron, also travels with the BCC Caravan as representative of the counseling area. lli'l7at l represent as tl f7Lll7IClI7 being is as Important as what I do Us Cl Director of Counsel- ing. .. Dave Cox What I represent as a human being, in the eyes of those around me, is as important as what I do as a Director of Counseling. Fur- thermore, I prefer not to regard a young person as a student, but as, like myself, a developing hu- man being. I would like to see stu- dents, faculty, counselors and ad- ministrators Isometimes one has to use labels to communicatel come to know one another as per- sons. For me, both The Good Life and an enriched educational experience are found in man's re- lationships with his fellow man. As a Director of Counseling, Hu- man Development is my academ- ic discipline. My classroom is the campus community as a whole. My goal is actualization of human potential. My subject matter is people and a growth process. Human development may be viewed as a continual re-creation of one's self-image in the light of beliefs concerning the best that all of manking can become. From fleeting, qualitative epi- sodes of personal development, what might a glimpse of momen- tary, relative high-quality being actually look like? Essentially, such a profile would reflect flexi- bility, creativity, responsibility, competency, commitment, integ- rity, autonomy, openness, curio- sity, spontaneity, control, inti- macy, detachment, and a wealth of knowledge and values--all sub- sumed under an aura of human complexity. Underlying these in- tricate qualities of human charact- er of life-style rests a keen emo- tional sensitivity to self and others in a concomitant relationship to a positive, accepting, trusting view of self and a feeling of personal Identification with all of man- kind's joys and sufferings. ln terms of societal implications, active participation, from an in- formed and responsible citizen, in a democratic society and a world community would be readily ob- servable. Such a person would also display IIWC necessary qualities for 50 a self-fulfilling life in a complex' changing world. But most of all untold numbers of us would standi in awe of the almost overwhelm- ing richness of life itself. 3 While counseling is a special kind of human, or helping, relation- ship, it is obviously not confined to the second floor of the Student Services Building. Broward Com- munity College is extremely fortu- nate to have an outstanding num-5 ber of faculty who, by their very nature and life-style, personalize learning and facilitate human de- velopment. These faculty are car- ing human beings to whom stu- dents often turn for understand- ing support. I want students to know more of these kinds of peo- ple exist on this campus in the form of counselors. Everything about students le.g. concerns, strengths, potentialsl is extremely important to us. We have devoted our personal and professional lives to understanding ourselves and others, and to grow- ing and helping others grow. Nothing students might wish to talk over with us will ever be taken lightly. Why? Because we care about people. I don't think we became counsel- ors and now we care. I think we are caring individuals who went into counseling as a profession. Who could ask for a better way to spend his of her professional life than as a partner of students working with them in a joint ex- ploration of personal meanings and toward individual develop- ment. How does one measure the effective- ness of a service such as the one de- scribed in this article? One valuable measurement is in the student's experi- encing a true helping relationship when exposed to the services. And, members of the Department of Coun- seling and Developmental Services firmly believe that human relation- ships become helping relationships when individuals take time to learn from, share with, and enjoy one an- other. i v I g, I The BCC Caravan is the less for- mal sounding name of the Mobile Unit that serves as a public relations center for the college. Headed by lVlr. Robert Livermon, the Caravan periodically sets up various displays and distributes information at different high schools. At times, the Caravan may feature the Chamber Choir, or BCC's jazz En- semble in a strictly musical program, art shows, presentations, of the nation- ally ranked Debate Team, or Bro' ward's state champion Reader's The- atre. Science is not neglected in Cara- van displays, and some days might find both BCC faculty and students ex' plaining the different departments of Biology, Physics, Astronomy, Nursing and Radiologic Technology. academic side, and the Caravan reflects this by bringing Athletic, sororities', fraternities', SGA, and student publi- cations students to meet and talk with prospective or interested high-school- ers. Campus counselors and advisers also accompany the Caravan. Mrs. Shirlee Seay is always on hand to an- swer questions and to hand out litera- ture and brochures to the high schools. The most important thing, though, isn't the display, or perform- ances, but the inter-actions of the peo- ple themselves, so that the college isn't seen as a cold, impersonal institution, but as a vital and growing body of in- dividuals who really care about others. That's its true purpose. Allll llllll MllNlTY IULLEHE . BCC Caravan TT' '--..

We all sat in a homely room filled with the odors and expression of education. We were only a few undetermined feet apart, but our difference separated us. They made us unique. As we sat there, as we laughed and contended points of view, we became aware of one an- other. We became more and distances became less. Each individual was a fragment of cul- ture, radiating his experiences, im- pressions, environment. We were a tiny cross-section of humanity from differ- ent countries, The countries represent- ed were The Bahamas, Cuba, Hon- duras, Iran, lndia, Venezuela. Each added a unique flair to the meeting. It was almost like an hour's sojourn in these countries simultaneously. The re- presentative students are presently stu- dying at BCC on a student's visa. They are maioring in business, nursing, and technology. It seems that the United States is known to train people well in these lields ol endeavor. However, a foreign student would probably choose a European school il' he were maioring in the humanities. The school systems in other countries vary. However, of those represented at the meeting, the differences did not seem as great as the similarities. Secon- dary education is composed of approx- imately eleven to twelve years. How- ever, lhe subiects studied in the equiv- alent of high school are greater in number. Instead ol six subiects per' year, the norm is twelve to thirteen subiects. The general consensus is that high school in the United States is a wasted length oi time. So much more could be learned in that time which presently is not even attempted. What were some ol the first impress- ions ol these people upon reaching the 52 l Norton , li United States? The majority said thatii the United States held no great sur-i' prrses for them. It was, more or less,r- what they had expected it to be. Ther' Bahamians were impressed by the act-'r ual, physical size of the United Statespl The pace of life in the United States was unbelievable to them. In the Baha- mas, the people have not forgotten. how to play and relax. There is kind of free-spirit atmosphere that leisurely drapes itself about the bright sands be- l witching the electric-blue waters. The same hectic life pace, nevertheless, is what malses the United States one of the most enterprizing countries in the world. Anil lain, a native of India, was hrst impressed by the attitude of 'it may be impossible, but let's try it any- way'. India is a country gorged with ideas and a long elaborate history. its culture is, probably, one of the most I complex and interesting cultures in the . world. It is a country making gigantic efforts to solve immediate problems but it is, also, a country whose tradi- tions and religions charm the present. It has about it an aura of mystery and mysticism In all of this, the impact of Indian ideas and culture on American society in the realms of philosophy and literature still has not been men- tioned. To Maria T. Fernandez, the friendli- ness of the American people them- selves was a revelation. Cuba is a part of the West Indies or' the Antilles. Pre- sently, it is under the domination of Castro, who is decidedly friendly to- wards Red China. At one point in the meeting, a point was made by Hassan Toloo, a native of lran, concerning the American press. lt l r l ll E l Nas his contention that the press in the United States is biased. While this nay not be astonding in its format, :he unsettling part is the manner un which the press is biased. Iran conjures p shades of Lawrence of Arabia in e mind of anyone who hears the ord. That was his point. Iran has ities, a varies climate, and a varied eople. It is making huge strides to- ward integrating into the technology ,of the Western World. The American press, however, editorializes on that which is not the norm, but, that which is peculiar to a given country. Why? The public finds no fascination in that which is familiar or common. They want to read about that which is uni- que, different, unusual. The result, the public has a rather stilted view of for- -eign peoples and their customs. Ah, you may say, but what of dat- ing customs? ln Honduras and Vene- zuela, according to Fatima Pereira and Olga Auffant, the young people are either allowed to date on their own or they are chaperoned. It is up to the in- dividual parents involved. In Iran, the customs of dating are comparable to those of the United States. However, lndia has an interesting custom. The men and women advertizc for marriage partners in the newspaper. This, of course, is not the custom of all peoples of India. However, it is the traditional mode. Language, it has been said, is the great- est manisfestation of culture. A person is so close to a language that it is diffi- cult to ascertain at what particular point, if there be such a point, that the language ends and the person begins. The foreign students found it interest- ing that the people of the United States feel no apparent urge to learn another's language. Mention was also made of the difficulties which present themselves in the mastering of the En- glish language whose written form and spoken form at times do not seem to relate. ln English, the alphabet is used in visually representing the language. In some languages, the writing system may be of a different form. For in- stance, a single character may be em- ployed for a syllable instead of a sound as in the alphabetical system, or, the writing might be a stylized pic- ture symbol of the obiect itself. Of course, if your native language is not alphabetical, it is much harder to learn English. ln order to really understand someone, you must first speak that person's language. The session we had together was rele- vant. Through its influence, we all left the meeting with a more complete knowledge of each other, and hence, of ourselves. It is greatly desirable that this type of communication and pro- motion of understanding of one an- other should continue. lust remember, Silver Sands is Shen 'ji 'inf' rfvf.

FURENSICS In this day and age of revolution, one of the lost arts seems to be com- munication. Although man can speak, there appears to be a lack of under- standing. lt becomes refreshing, then, to realize that this all-important art is still alive and one of the reasons is the efforts of the National Collegiate For- ensics Program. Broward Community College has participated in forensics competition for a number of years now and al- though they have always managed to field a respectable team, this year, they've gone even further. In addition to winning some seventy-odd trophiesg they have also won the State Cham- pionship, something no other Broward forensics team could accomplish. Many factors are incorporated in this win, the most significant being preparation. lt began in August with the announcement of this year's topic: Resolve that the Federal Government should gain a general knowledge of the topic, a large portion of which pertains to economics. Mark Rowe, captain of this year's team said that Anytime you're dealing with a subject as com- plex as economics, it requires a great deal of research. Research seems to be one of Bro- ward's strongpoints. The debate team members spend close to fifteen hours a week just reading books and typing quotes from them, but even though this is an integral part of debate it still requires the ability to combine this re- search with speaking ability, logic, an- alysis, and reasoning. Much of this is inborn, but some of these attributes must be taught, and this is another area in which Broward's team excels. Broward has the services of two highly capable debate coaches. Head coach Don Nichols graduated from Westmar College in Iowa and did grad- uate work at the University of South Dakota and received his masters degree from Temple University. He is assisted by William Strickland who graduated from the University of Arkansas and recieved his masters from the same in- stitution. Together these men have combined to formulate one of the most powerful debate teams in the south. Broward has an advantage over most other junior College teams in that they also compete on a varsity level. The varsity squad is composed of Mark Rowe and Elliot Pood. These two sophomores have attended such tournaments as Harvard, University of Texas, Stanford, Citadel, Stetson, Val- dosta, Wichita, Florida, and Florida State. The remarkable thing about hav- ing attended this quality of competi- tion is that Mark and Elliot have man- aged to maintain an 8096 win-loss re- cord. Coach Nichols said that This ability to win 80fZn of the time must ig: Q59 Winners of the National Phi Ro Pi tournament: Don Nichols, Mark Rowe, Nino Cohen and Elliot Pood. 55 Above: Nichols gives away trophy to one of the high school winners at a BCC sponsored I ournanien t. rank these two boys among the top de- bators in the nation. ln addition to man, Broward also squad of junior Headed by Al Rosa, jeff Hoffman, Cathy jackson, and Gary Foreman, BCC's junior Varsity squad has also managed an exceptional record, win- ning about 7095 of all their debates. Broward Community's Varsity de- baters also compete in varsity competi- tion. Luke Cermola, another member of the freshman team, said that The great thing about debating at Broward is that even though you are an inexper- ienced freshman, the other squad is so good that it forces you to excell. And therefore enables you to debate on a varsity level. Recently at the State tournament, Mark and Eliott won first place in a two man debateg Mark took second place speaker while Wlliott took third. ln four man debate, Al Rosa, jerry Hoffman, Cathy jackson, and Gary these two gentle- maintains a great Varsity debators. U Foreman took first placeg Al Rosa was named top debator in the tournament, and jerry Hoffman earned third. April l2 found the BCC debators at the Phi Ro Pi fthe national honor society for forensics in junior Col- legesj National Tournament in St. Louis, Missouri. Mark and Elliot Hnished up as the second top debators in the nation, with jerry Hoffman and Al Orosa in ifth place. An honor greeting committee of BCC students, Dr. Hamilton and Dr. Young met the forensics team as they got off the plane in Fort Lauderdale. Mark also won second place in extemporaneous speaking, and fourth in both Speaking, and Rhetorical Analysis, thus placing in every individual event he entered. All in all, the Forensics Program spells a winning formula. The combi- nation of desire, work and coaching pays off again and again, as exempli- fied by their trophies, but more im- portantly, the experience and educa- tion it offers to students. 56 Al Orosa, Mark Rowe, Elliot Pood, Terry Tafoya, Kathy Gibson, Mrs. julie Wood, Don Nichols, present State Trophies to President Hugh Adams Elliot Pood ileftj during televised de bale at the State Tournament. .ug ij O Sigma Mu Gamma ight, members on trip to Winn-Df.x'ie Wareliouse. ?!0w, Roy Rofllns and David flltnphy 'low right, observation of professional!

You've heard that belore, right? For example, in public relations literature ol' most organiza- tions? Well, the record ol' this group's activities lor the past year is witness enough that the members have served their community. Terry Silverman acted as president and worked with vice president Cathy Mangeney, Tammy Gambill, who was secretary, and treasurer Rochelle Dur- kalski to coordinate projects. Mrs. Bernadine English ol' the psychology department served as advisor lor the group which meets on Sunday even- ings in C building. ln addition to decorating for the Icebreaker Dances in both Terms l and ll, Christmas caroling at a home for the elderly, helping with the Elks Club carnival .ind sponsoring a little league lonlball team, the girls ot K-ettes par- ticipated in several ol Circle K's service activities. By the way, members of the K- ettes, with the Elks Lodge 32273 of Plantation co-sponsored the Fourth Annual Spring Trip for over one hun- dred boys, including members of the Southwest Boys Club, Northwest Boys Club, and St. Gregory's school, all in Fort Lauderdale. St. Gregory's Raid- ers, the Broward County junior Cham- pion basketball players, were among those that participated in the outing to Pirates World. Admission fees for the boys were supplied by the K-ettes and the BCC Student Government Association, while the Elks Lodge provided the food. The two buses that served as transportation for the entourage came via the Community Relations Depart- ment ofthe Fort Lauderdale Police. The K-ettes are continuing their work with children at an orphanage in Hollywood and weekly visits to work with blind children at the Hollywood YMCA. Plans to make tapes for use by blind students are currently being con- sidered. The members ofthe K-ettes have served their community, and in doing so have certainly built character. -L-' Fr .Q R 58 l' 8 l r l l l r i llathy Mangeney, Vice-Presil lien! is ETTES, UNDER THE PPONSORSHIP OF BER- l,rlADlNE ENGLISH, Has rf'ROVEN ITSEEE ONE ZQE THE HARDEST fivorerowc BCC SERVICE iituss.

The first fieldtrip took them to the everglades and flood con- trol canals lo see the transition from the Everglades wilderness to the man' grove wilderness. Traveling by boat, they ventured into some ol' the man- grove areas of Barnes Sound, northeast of Key Largo, where they observed such birds as cormorants, pelicans, her- ons, and an eagle. During the next fieldtrip, they viewed the mangroves 6l ofthe Everglades bordering the pioitct canal from Barnes Sound to the engine testfsite near the Everglades National Park, Their final trip took them to Old Rhodes Key, north of lies Largo, then to Anglefish Creek, a mangroxe creek. They camped overnight and studied animals and plants near the sea. Three hauls of night dredging brought in many mud flat organisms, including shrimp, lobster, crabs, sea urchins, sea- weed lalgael, and tropical fish linclud' ing pipefish, related to the seahorsel.

The problem of Greek Council jurisdiction, which involves one-sixth ol the student body, versus student government jurisdiction, which in- volves all students including the Greeks, had been brewing for several years. The problem was virtually dump- ed from one lap into another for near- ly two months until the Greek Consti- tution was passed. Dean of Student Affairs George Young brought the issue before the Student Personnel Services Commit- tee. The Student Government took up the proposed constitution from there, but due to the inability ol the SGA to act officially with no quorum, filibust- ering, and general chaos, a special com- mittee was lormed to change the con- troversial points in the constitution. From the committee, the constitution came back to the SGA, was tabled and delayed tor two regular meetings, but finally passed by special session. The original problem centered a- round the Greek Council not having a constitution to define its powers and its subsequent operating independent- ly ol SGA. Young brought the controversy to the attention ofthe Student Personnel Services Committee, which serves in an advisory capacity to the Dean of Stu- dent Affairs, late in September. Greek Council President Dave Peck and Director of Student Activi- ties William Vaught defended the Greek position to SGA President joe Grove before the committee and Dr. Young so that committee could have some insight into the problem. The debate became slightly agita- ted with both sides remaining steadfast in their positions. Grove said, however, that he wanted to get away from the head-hunting between SGA and Greeks in the past. A separation would imply tha Greeks are not subject to the SGA constitution in the same way as an in- dependent, Grove continued. He fear- ed problems would arise over attend- ance at SGA sponsored events, voting in SGA elections, and trial by the SGA Supreme Court if the Greeks were to become separated from SGA. The Greek defenders stated that the SGA, composed mostly of inde- pendent students, could not compre- hend problems esoteric to the Greeks. DSA Vaught was a little more forceful. I don't know why this col- lege has to be different from other col- leges that have independent Greek powers not under jurisdiction of , , ,,, I J, 1 ?' lb i t .I B .-- . J l i ..

Also brought before the attentio of the committee was the fact th T four knit-picking SGA senates o the past refused to approve four diffe ent proposed Greek Council constituf tions without proper consideration. T Grove mentioned that last year'i SGA President Scott johnson, wh was also a member of a fraternityj asked Grove to vote against the pro-gb posed Greek Constitution last year. i Grove added that he would like tor see the Greeks have a constitution and l it was then suggested that a new one bel submitted by the Greek Council to the present senate which he considered not to be anti-Greek. The proposed constitution was first considered by a special SGA ses- sion at which there was no quorum, forcing the senator's changes in the constitution to be only suggested - changes. Since SGA could not act offi- cially, the debating between the Sen- ate and Peck and sometimes between the senate members themselves was termed just a lot of rhetoric by Dr. Young. The idealogy discussion lasted for nearly two hours before ad- journing, with the senate deciding that no other special session should be called to consider the Greek Constitu- tion unless attendance was mandatory. At the regular meeting two days later confusion reigned, since SGA- Vice President Larry Brannon, who or- dinarily conducts the meetings was not present. Of the one hour allotted for dis- cussion, Senator Don Anthony held the floor for forty minutes with Sena- tors joe Boone and joe Hamilton fili- bustering during the remaining time in retalliation. From this meeting, however, aj new committee composed of senators, Greeks, and administrators was formed to iron out the controversial issues in E the Constitution so it could be read to the senate and be approved at one meeting. This committee made several changes including a more inclusive de- finition of Greek social organizations, a specific definition of Greek Council jurisdiction, and stricter appeal rights. ' At long last the revised proposed f constitution was brought before the 1ate. It seemed as though it would .ss when Senator Tom CAmp, Sena- r loe Boone, and senators complain- ii that they had not had an opportu- iity to read the constitution in its en- tlety. Senator Campo suggested that 1 e issue be tabled at that meeting and i the following one. A With the Thanksgiving holiday itnceling out the next senate meeting, 'esident Grove called a special session .ri act on the proposed constitution. lr. Young briefly addressed the Sen- le, informing it that he would not 'Ilerride the SGA unless he thought it 'lere stalling. The Senate then went through the institution, revising as it went along. lack objected to several of the revi- ons, but was informed by Dr. Young itat it appeared that the Greeks would ,ther have a revised constitution or no anstitution at all. The motion was passed to accept ,ie Greek Council constitution as writ- in and amended and to record the fte by roll call. The constitution was ssed with Senators lVliller, Cilone, looney, Cutler, DeStout, Gonzalea, lecskemety, Saunders, and Pereira oting yes. A A6 C, . .4-sa..n.mS, Greek l Senators Hamilton, Boone, Fahey, ind Lucia abstained, while Senator inthony alone voted no. With the constitution finally pass- fd by the SGA and on it's way to Dr. Young for approval, the leaders of the lreviously opposing forces, Dave Peck nd joe Grove, left the meeting to- ether. vy Nancy Schubert ,v l.

Boh Sandritlge Greek Life on the BCC campus finds ac- tivity in money-male ing projects, volunteer proiects, parties, trips and dances, as well as participation in the Fall and Spring Festi- vals. 6-1 PORT Philosophy The idea behind the Community College is to meet the educational needs of the Community. The athletics department at BCC follows this con- cept by using athletes from the local area. There are only five out-of-state athletes on the varsity teams at this time. At BCC the local athlete is given the opportunity to further his educa- tion as well as his athletic ability. BCC currently offers a total of 56 athletic scholarships. Baseball receives 18, basketball 12, tennis 12, breaking down to six for men and six for wo- men, golf has six, gymnastics and wrestling have three each and two scholarships for baseball and basket- ball managers. For those athletes not on scholarships but in need of finan- cial aid, federal workships are avail- able. These workships pay 81.65 an hour for 15 hours a week of work, either on campus or off campus. Books which are kept from previous scholarships are lent out to the other athletes who are not on scholarships to help keep the college costs down. For those students not interested in competing at the varsity level, both intramural and extramural competi- tions are offered in a variety of activi- ties such as football, softball, basket- DD ball, weightlifting, cross-country, bowling, golf, archery, tennis, paddle and handball, ping-pong, and a sports program for women. The philosophy of BCC seems to be that mental fitness works hand in hand with physical fitness. BCC at- tempts to introduce the students to in dividual activities instead of the team competition which most have had in high school. The question which is raised oc- casionally is, What good does a physi- cal education program or a varsity competition accomplish? BCC feels that having athletes competing at any level increases school spirit and allows students to be exposed to different people which in itself is an important lesson. Competitions also allow the school to become better known and this helps it to grow. To sum up the main idea behind the athletic program at BCC, or for that matter any college, it can be said that Education is the main concern. The exceptional student, whether in the classroom or in sports should be given the chance to excel. At BCC the student can only blame himself if he doesn't. AJEBBY BINGI - GYMNASTICS. The Broward Community College gymnastics team began its first season over with an impressive second place win in the Florida State AAU Cham- pionship gymnastics meet held in Mia- mi. Miami Dade North won the meet with a score o 79.00 points, followed by Broward with 65.7l points. Fort Meyers placed third with 40.15 points. High points of the meet for Broward included Dean Gregory's first place win on the long horse. Dean used a giant handspring to score 8.lO and de- leat the top Miami Dade vaulter in the event who had a score of 8.05. Dean also took second place in free exer- cise. Wayne May competed in the All Around event and placed fifth out ol' a field of twentyelour, Others scoring lor Broward included Ken johnson, Rich Peters, David Cefkin, jim Porter and Peter Wessels. None of these men had ever competed in a gymnastics 66 meet prior to the State meet at Miami. Our two all-around men, Waynef May and Dean Gregory, left school af- ter completing term l. This put the allvaround burden on Ken johnson who has come on strong with some very line performances. In the last meet of the year against the University of Florida, Ken placed second in free exercise, still rings, and horizontal bar. Ken amassed 29.2 points in that meet for his highest all around total of the season. Ken johnson, David Cefkin, Rich Peters, David Miles, and joe Axinn traveled to Orlando for the Mid-Flor- ida Gymnastics Championship Meet. Broward's finest performance was turned in by David Cefkin in free exer- cise. David scored 5.7 for his top score of the year. Prospects for next year appear good as Ken johnson, David Cefkin, P lim Porter, and joe Axinn are return- ing. David Miles and Wayne lvlay are also expected to return. Two top high school gymnasts have expressed an in- terest in coming to Broward next year also. Hopefully, several more high school gymnasts will decide to come our way, This past season there were three scholarships available for gymnastics. Next year Coach Rumpf hopes to have five scholarships available. Nest year's schedule will include Miami Dade North, University ol' Flor- ida, Florida State University, and sev- eral invitational championships meets. tam-f-N U 0 WUMENS SPURTS Women's Sports at BCC are divi- ded IDIO two main categories: intra- mural sports and intercollegiate sports. Women's intramural sports are intend- ed for all BCC women desiring to com- pete against one another in such activi- tres as volleyball, basketball, powder puff football, softball, archery, table tennis, tennis, handball and paddleball. Sororities at BCC can gain points to- ward a yearly Intramural Trophy by entering and competing in these intra- mural activities. This years trophy went to Alpha Delta 'l94'A, second place to Delta Gamma Pheta l92'4 and third place to BE Preta 178. A women's intercollegiate sports program also is available at BCC. At the present time, there are varsity men's teams in Tennis, Volleyball, Softball. ln 1971-72, additional men's varsity teams in Basketball Badminton will be included, T wo- and wo- and hese Varsity teams schedule games and tournaments with other junior and senior college teams. There are also state championships tournaments held for the college women's varsity teams in each of the above mentioned sports. This year the Volleyball team con- sisted of the following girls: Linda Lighthill, Lauren Scott, Lil Vllise, Kris Detivder, Barbara Nuenckler, Debbie Ackley, Gail Verplancke and Debbie Winters.

One of the outstanding girls on the team throughout the entire season was Debbie Vllinters. Debbie was Vol- leyball captain and is a Sophomore at Broward. She is majoring in Physical Education and after graduation she plans on attending the University of South Florida. Debbie is a local high school graduate from Plantation where she was active in various school activi- ties. Due to a lack of time and poor publicity, many sororities were unable to compete in many of the sports that were offered at BCC in intramural sports. Coach Judy Blucker stated that most ofthe girls that did showan interest in the games could not compete be- r r cause they worked. Others, she added,i were unaware of the intramural sched-i ule. Posters listing the game schedulingii were displayed only in the gymn. lt isi hoped that next year these publicity' problems will be overcome by Iistingri the complete intramural schedule ini the newspaper. This would give more time for unaffiliated groups to get to- gether and join the sororities in the- competition. Each year a trophy is presented to- the team that wins the most points in the intramural competition. One point is given to the team winner of each in- dividual sport. At the end of intramu- rals a total is taken and the appropri- ate team is presented the award. - Judith Blucker and Sharon lVlurphy - ATHLETIC EllUAlITY 68 lHutson, a Nova High School graduate. i Another year of basketball has i assed, and the season of '70-71 is 1ow a memory.

When asked the main objectives of the basketball program at Broward, Coach IVlorris replied, to get a young man to finish college and to win games. At lot of time, energy, and co- operation by the athletic director, coaches, trainer, manager, and players are needed to have an excellent basket ball program, says A. D. Rex Brum- ley. lVlr. Brumley also believes that no basketball program can be successful without the understanding, hard vvork, and cooperation that the cheerleaders put in to help support the team and to capture the interest of the student body to support the team. According to Coach Al Kirk, irestling is the fastest growing collegi- e sport in the southeast today. BCC s made a home for the relatively w sport in Florida and the team has ined recognition in the state as one the top teams.

Three of the losses coming from we University of Florida i2j, and Ala- ama ill. lf things go as expected, lext season could prove to be a very lateresting and fruitful year.

Five men went to the state meet 1 Gainesville and emerged with two tate champions, jerry Ringi at ll8 bs. and Stan McDonald at l67 lbs., me 3rd place winner, Bryant Reich- gott, and two 4th place winners, Mike 'ratt and Bob Hartwig. After the return of 3 men from l st year and new talent from the com- unity Broward boasts such wrestlers erry Ringi ll8, Pete Collins l26, joe iranti l34, Derald Pierce l-12, Mike asey l50, Bob Simac l58, Brad Fox ESS, john Szerdi l67, Buster Pinner uf WRESTLING l77, john jones l90 and Bob fthe an- chor manj johnston in the unlimited weight class who all did a spectacular job this season. Some of the men have compiled outstanding records this season and competed in State, Regional records are: jerry Ringi 9-O-l duel meet re- cord, suffered a knee injury at the re- gionals and had to default the bout. Pete Collins I3-l-0 duel meet record his one loss was when he moved up to the l35 pound weight class. john Se- zerdi I5-5, Bob johnston with a I3-2-l . Since the State championships and the National championships were both held on the same weekend, the wrestlers had to decide which one to attend. The State championships were held at the Miami-Dade North Gym February 26th and 27th where Derald Pierce placed 2nd at l4'2 lbs. , Bob Simac placed -lth at l50 and Mike Casey placed Sth at ISO. jerry Ringi , Pete Collins, john Szerdi and Bob johnston represented Broward at the l9th District qualify- ing meet held on February 26th and 27th at Camden New jersey. john Szerdi placed 2nd in the l67 lb. weight division and went on to Worth- ington Minnesota and the National jr. College meet on March 4th to 6th. At that meet john had to default his bout because he reiniured his shoulder and couIdn't move it. Coach Al Kirk had only three scholarships available this past year and now has five available for next sea- son. He is currently looking at recent graduates from the community high schools to join the Broward team. lOl lb. State champion Larry Wright, jim Seldonridge who placed 3rd in the state and Rick Mosch who placed 3rd in the Nation, will be joining the squad along with Pierce, Casey, Szerdi, and Pinner who will be returning to keep Broward's program growing. After the season was over, the wrestlers held their First Annual Awards Banquet where each member of the team received an individual tio- phy lor their achievements. Special awards were given to Bob johnston for the Outstanding Wrestler oi the Year and to Mike Casey for the Most Improved Wrestler . Congratulations team. Next year, with all the support ot the stu- dents and faculty, we'lI see the team at the State Championships. Lots Ofluckf' jOE MIR.-NNT 7l my, nf ,. .., , . '7' tv ' ag -' - .I ' '-'sf-f ' ha iq 0 MENS TENNIS This year the Broward Commun- ity College tennis team, coached by Malcolm McGehee, has played the most competent schools in the area, and has a 7-6 record in competition, Each year the tennis team offers six scholarships supported by student activity fees. These are the only funds available since no admission is ever charged for any sport activity at BCC. Next year there will be three returning players on scholarship, which will leave three scholarships available. Unfortunately, recruiting players has posed a problem. The good players in the county high schools go to school out of state, while out of state players are hard to recruit because there is no money for room and board. 4 - Along with the recruitment pro- blem, the team has to contend with virtually unusable tennis courts. Their surface is impractical for competitive games because the balls will not last. Because of this the team must travel one hour out to Hollywood Lakes. New courts have been proposed but as of this date no action has been taken. Also, a proposal for resurfacing the present courts has yet to be acted upon. This year's number one player at BCC is freshman, Rick Reynolds, who graduated from Newport Harbor High School in 1966. He has played two years of recreational tennis, two years in junior high, four years in high school and three and a half years in the U.S. Army where he placed first in the singles and doubles tournaments. ln competition Rick plays second or third. Rick is one of the team's six scholarship players. Another scholarship student is number two player Hunter Mattocks, a freshman who graduated from Miami Military Academy in 1970. He has played two Years of junior high tennis and four years of high school tennis. Hunter's achievements include a 1966 thirty-eight ranking for sixteen year olds and under and a 1967 number seven placement in the Canadian Lawn Tennis Association lOntariol. Hunter's other tournament wins include the North Miami Shores lnvitation, South Miami Invitational and the Southern Ontario Open. Hunter plays number one in competition. Number three player, John Fiorio, a sophomore and scholarship player, 72 graduated in 1969 from Washington- Lee High School, Arlington Virginia. John has played three years of high school tennis and one year in college. John's various achievements include top ten high school ranking in the state of Virginia, Arlington, Northern Virginia and Montgomery County Championships. Also, in 1969, John received the best player award in ten- nis in Northern Virginia which was given by outstanding football players on the Washington Redskins. Other players comprising the team are number four player Pitti Fiorio, freshman on scholarship who gradu- ated from Washington-Lee High in Ar- lington where he was captain of the 1970 varsity team. Gary Benoit num- ber five player is a freshman on schol- arship who graduated from Central Bucks East High School in New York. Number Six player, Arnold Letendre is a sophomore who graduated from South Broward High in 1965. Arnold competed in the U.S. Army 7th Bri- gade Tournament where he placed second. Coach McGehee's outlook for next year is confident, providing he can recruit players from the area's high schools. Three scholarships will be a- vailable encouraging good players to remain in the community instead of going out of state. Tennis, like golf, is an entre to meeting people, whether for social or business purposes. Tennis skills for re- creational rather than competitive ends can benefit the average person seeking an entertaining form of exer- cise. i l i l v i. i I i l l 4 CRUSS CUUNTRY If you see a band of young men running across the open fields, through the orange groves, down the beaches, and along the roads, do not report them as fugitives. These young men are members of the newly formed cross country team of Broward Com' munity College. Coach Will Gifford is looking forward to next fall and the competitive season which begins a- round the second week of September and goes through the National Junior College Cross Country Meet which is the second week in November. Coach Gifford has two men re- turning from this past year's team, which was started about half way through the season. John Finnegan and George Sands are continuing to work hard and by next fall should be top contenders on the junior college cross country circuit. Cross country training involves year round condition- ing and l doubt if any athletes train as hard and as long as cross country run- ners. Pre-season conditioning might in- volve running 100 miles a week and then during the competitive, distance running is replaced by more speed work. Obviously, cross country run- ners have to be dedicated men. A man must undergo some physical pain to reach top physical condition and cross country runners are willing to pay the price to be among this physically supe- rior group. The Broward County high school teams are among the best in the state and Coach Gifford is looking forward to having the outstanding seniors each - Qiytl if it ,A Q - .

Seven run- ners actually compete in a meet and five of those seven can score. A runner scores the same number of points as the place he finishes, so the low team score wins the meet. We are looking forward to having a successful year next season. One that would take us to the Florida Junior College Athletic Association Cross Country Championship. With some good fortune in recruiting top high school boys, this goal can be attained. At this time we have been trying to obtain scholarships to aid some of the athletes. WILBUR GlFFORDf What does baseball mean at Bro- ward Community College? The ob- vious answer ls everything in many ways. Ihe question is viewed by me lirim xarious aspects since I was lortu- nate enough to be chosen to write this article, These areas ol discussion con- tern the school, the scholarship itself, the baseball program .ind how it rates, and, ol course, my own personal leel- ing since I was a ballplay er here. First ol all, lel Us consider the scholarship and the school. The schol- arship that is given by Broward Com- munity College covers tuition, books, and other expenses the school might require one to pay. l speak lrom per- sonal expenses when I say these items can really add up to a good sum. I was on sehiilarsliip lot three semesters at Biiiwaitl, The liist semester I had to try out lor the team but the lollnwing three semesters I received my scholar- ship. What I received lor those three semesters saved me a great deal in school expenses. Even il the athlete does not receive .t scholarship to begin with, it does not cost him trio much Ii- naneially to try out lor the team while iii scltiiiil. -Ns lar as the school itsell is con- cerned, it is rated xery high academic- alli, among iunioi colleges, BCC ollers .1 wide range ol courses in many Iields ol study lor the liist two xears, The laallplayets who Wlslt l.llCI' ltr ttlleltcl a lout year college will be well prepared.

The iunior college baseball conference in which BCC plays is one ol the best in the nation. Baseball scouts comb this area, proles- sional and college alike, ,AX baseball play er is on display everytime he talees the field, because someone Is always out scouting. Coach Wheat's program has grown tremendously, with the BASEBALL grant ol' more funds from the college he could top some of the better base- ball programs at four year colleges. He has already exceeded many four year institutions. The program attracts many players even from out of state because of its status, and because of the possibility of signing a professional baseball contract at BCC is great be- cause the scouts look more to the jun- ior colleges than the four year schools. In addition, the moderate climate of south Florida enables the playing of baseball year round. This provides a player with more playing possibilities with the great number of games that have been scheduled in the program. From my own personal stand- point I owe Coach Wheat and BCC everything in whatever I have achieved up to the present time, Coach Wheat gave me the chance to play ball and s vc-xg ...i T4 I 4 i r ii I 4 rv '... gh- rr ii I' Q ig, 4 I I I I i I I iBroward gave me the chance to attain lacademieally what I needed to be ae- tceptable and further my education to- rwards securing a degree from a Iour year college.

Be- cause Coaeh Wheat helped me, and had confidence in me, and gave me the opportunity to perlorm as part ol' the team at Broward, l was able to sign a professional contract with the Chicago Cubs and attend the University ol Nliami during the oll season.

This is the only chance for a girl to obtain financial aid through ath- letics. Next year there will be at least two scholarships open for the local high school talent to work for. The coach of the tennis team is Miss Gavigin and she feels that there is a problem getting skilled girls in tennis to come out for the team. She also hopes to get some of the high school girls who are developing into good ten- nis players out to BCC. There is a pro- blem, however, in keeping the better girls in the state since most of them go out of state or to a four year school. Last year the team was 6 and 4 and came in third in the state meet. This season started on February 9th, and ran until April 25th. The two main tournaments are State Jr. College Tournament and the Florida State Op- en Tournament. This year girls had a duel meet re- cord of 3-4 and placed 3rd in the Jr. College State Tournament. The following are the members of the BCC tennis team for 1971. Therese Lambert playing the num- ber one place. Therese is on scholar- ship and has a 3.1 grade point average. She attended Pompano Senior High and played the number one and two position. Siri E. Rudd holds the second po- sition on the women's tennis team. Siri graduated from Stranahan High School and is majoring in either Physical Edu- cation or Recreation. After she turns 21 she would like to work for Delta Airlines. Siri, who has been playing tennis now for four years, is looking forward to a successful season. Ann E. Troxell holds the number three position and is also on scholar- ship. Ann attended Fort Lauderdale High School but did not play on the tennis team. The number four player is Debbie Ackley, also on scholarship. Debbie who comes from West Hempstead High in New York, has a 3.3 grade point average. Also on scholarship is the number five player, Julie Castello. Julie is a 3.7 student who graduated from Nova High School. Tonia Padova is on scholarship and graduated from Escambia High School where she played fifth posi- tion. Currently she plays in the num- ber sixth position, Elaine Yost graduated from Fort Lauderdale High School and is current- ly holding down the number seven po- sition onthe team. Rounding out the team in the eighth position is Kris Detwiler who graduated from North East High School. Kris was team captain of the swimming team while in high school.

Additional team depth was anticipated with six fresh- men and transfer prospects. However, three of the five returnees enrolled in four-year schools including number one player Dale Welker. He is attend- ing Columbus College, Columbus, Georgia, on a golf scholarship. In addi- tion, four of the six new prospects have dropped from school or are schol- astically ineligible. The current squad of seven work- ed hard to improve and become more consistent. They would hit several hundred practice balls on Monday and Tuesday. The remaining days the team was fortunate to be able to play at Bonaventure Country Club of Fort Lauderdale and Emerald Hill Country Club in Hollywood, two of the finest and most challenging courses any- where. With this program it was hoped that the team would play to their indi- vidual capabilities. Returning from last year are Frank Coughanour and Jack Manzi, both of whom are expected to have good seasons. Coughanour finished sixth in the state tournament and is ranked as one of the top junior college players in the state. Coughanour is from Nova High School and Manzi 77 X from Cardinal Gibbons. The top new player is Bruce Wallace from Planta- tion High School who was 1970 Bro- ward Junior Bunner-up, Mike Maier from South Broward High School showed potential during the fall prac- tice season and a new player is Bill Wright from Stranahan High School, returning to school after four years in the service. Two other new players from out of the area are Chad Smith of Houston, Texas, and Jim Finn of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Junior College golf in Florida is challenging and has greatly improved in the past few years. Five of the top seven teams in the national tourna- ment the past two years were from Florida with St. Petersburg champions in 1969 and Miami Dade North in 1970. From pre-season play it looks as if Dade North, lndian River, Brevard, St. Petersburg, and Chipola will be contenders again this year as they have most of their players returning. Edison and Dade South look strong with their players returning from last year. With the improvement of junior golf and high school competition in Broward County, the future of the golf program at Broward Community College looks bright. BCC will have five of their six scholarships open for the new crop of players next season. - B. MABSEE - Q 1 ,sa Q lv, r N I ,x V 4f x K - N 1 o 1 7, A 1 - x 1 l U o I x G F. -0 l 5 I Y ix 1' 1-1? As in the past, this year's cheering quad has come up with the necessary rray of personalities needed to cheer Broward on to victory. They have rawn talent from such states as New jersey, Ohio, and Massachusetts as well as Florida. Although the girls ome from many and varied back- rounds, the squad is close knit with many lasting friendships extending from cheerleading. There are Physical Education Majors, Fashion Majors, En- glish Majors, and Political science Ma- jors, all mingling together, a well rounded representation of nearly every campus department. Even though the girls have many differences, they all have a few similar desires. Every girl wishes to further her education at a four year institution, re- alizing the need for a well rounded Lillian Wise Physical Education ilflajor.

CHEERLEADERS physical and mental being, All ofthe cheerleaders express a great desire to continue cheerleading, meeting people, and spreading the warmth and friendli- ness they possessto all of mankind. Many of the cheerleaders feel there is a tremendous amount of apathy on cam- pus, while choosing cheerleading as an act of involvement needed to over- come it. Linda Lighthills' statement may best exemplify the whole squad's feelings, I wanted to become involved with Broward as a school, not just a student who came to class and went home. This article would not be com- plete without mentioning the sponsor, Mrs. Michael Maclxlamara, to whom the girls credit most of their success. She has acted as choreographer and chaperone for the past seven years, giv- ing the cheerleaders the guidance need- ed and the benefit ol her experience. They all feel she has been an intricate factor in the success ol this years cheerleading squad. Next year Mrs. MacNamara will turn the job over to another teacher yet to be named, She feels that her time spent with these girls has been a unique experience and one which she'll treasure in the years ahead. At least six girls will be leaving BCC this year so there is a need for girls to try out for the team for next year. Both Sharon and Kathy, co-cap- tains this year, feel that most girls hate the idea that it is too hard to make the squad and just do not try out. This is a loss to both the girls and the college. -- ROY TAYLOR f i ,L qv-.-we . .....,,. n - 'dm . Q 2 11- E i - ra IisS'sl' t 'fes. E. -. .fra 'ef ' s .

All male stu- dents are eligible to enter the competi- tion and are encouraged to do so. As an incentive for various teams to com- pete in all the sports during the two terms a President's Intramural Tro- phy is given to the organization which has the highest total. If they win this title three years in a row they get to keep the large trophy. lf they do not win three years in a row they receive a smaller replica of the trophy. The 1968-69 winner of this tro- phy was Sigma Tau Sigma, however, in 1969-70, Omega Chi took the trophy with Theta Kappa Gamma second and Phi Delta Sigma third. After the first term of the 1970-71 season, Omega Chi was in sec- ond place behind Theta Kappa Gamma by three points. In third place, twenty points behind Omega Chi, was the 1969 winner Sigma Tau Sigma, so it seemed like a tough second term fight. And a tough fight it was as the three top teams poured out a lot of sweat and energy to be number one. As the second term came to an end, En Garde! BCC is now in its sixth year of the fencing world. Each trimes- ter, three or four sections are offered and over 1,000 students have snapped up this opportunity. HPR 108 covers the basic tech- nique of Foil Fencing through judging, directing and scoring a bout.

The best fencing masters in the world today range in age from 20-75. Dr. Miguel Gonzalez, an outstand- ing international fencer, has been working with the advanced fencers from BCC. He is a surgical resident at 80 Broward General Medical Center and native of Madrid, Spain. Just before leaving his country, he was ranked No. 1 in Central Spain - a title he held for two years. Dr. Gonzalez began fencing nine years ago when he was a medical student in Madrid. He helped to teach the actors in the movie El Cid how to fence. Our fencers are presently brushing up on their skill for a spring tourna- ment. - :M 5' l g,gi...,.ffr2fi1J:1f ,, i .,.:gi41 .l TFT ' ::s- '-..f '- ' . hm ifgg li gg-- 1 us. T iuifiii RAINER i l l I By Rudy Miranda l l Athletic training is the care and prevention of athletic injuries. At BCC, Rudy Miranda serves as trainer for the Basketball team, and is respon- jsible for the training room where the 'daily treatment of athletes is perform- ed. This treatment includes certain routines, such as taping the basketball players' ankles to prevent injuries on the court, and checking with the play- ers for any injury from the previous day. Rudy is always available during practices in case of an accident. He is also responsible for the care of the training equipment and supplies and to see that they are clean, sanitary, and always ready. These supplies aid all the atheletes as well as the Physical Educa- tion students who might have need of them. The more frequent injuries are cuts and different types of sprains which the trainer must take care of until a doctor can be seen. As you can understand, the trainer has a very im- portant job as far as the safety and welfare of the athletes on the team. He should be serious and willing to take on the responsibility of his job. Rudy Miranda has been a trainer ever since Nova High. This is his sec- ond year as head trainer at BCC, and he feels that it is a very satisfying job with great chances to continue learn- ing as you work. Next year he will be leaving and the basketball team will need a new trainer. lt is a rewarding job, and offers a scholarship to the stu- dent. The only pre-requisite is that you be able to tape ankles and be fam- iliar with training procedures. If you are interested, contact Coach Morris, Rudy Miranda, or lVlr. Brumley at the Physical Education Department on campus. Dr. Miguel Gonzales is an outstanding inter- national fencer, and was ranked first in Central Spain just before arriving in this country. l-le has been working with the advanced fencers from BCC. an. df' ,- - ex: ..,-3 ff:::. lf ' -- W :FW ...- 2- ...- We-QMQ-fmt v. - ww Sl N ,.,.,-- ,,.,-'M' s TUDENT GO VERNMENT ASSOCIA TloN The name of this organization shall be the Student Government Asso- ciation of Broward Community Col' lege. All registered students of Bro- ward Community College shall be sub- iect to this constitution and its by- laws. The Student Government Associf ation shall be the official voice and re- presentative between the student body and the administration of Broward Community College. These are the first three sentences of the SGA Con- stitution stating the general purpose of the organization. However, there is more to the SGA than a constitution, there are people working to carry out the ideals of an organization The SGA in l970-7l was working under the watchful eye of the Senate President joe Grove, Senate Vice-presi- dent Larry Brannon, Secretary Peggy Lehn, and Treasurer Larry Hart. These four, along with a Senate of about 35 sturdy representatives and 21 Supreme Court, were responsible for the govern- ing of the student body.

Disregarding these facts, there are students who leel that the SGA does not do its iob, that it shuns the indivi' dual student and only pretends to voice the opinions ol the student body. This view would represent a farce, an opinion that has little or no facts to back it up, lt can be easily said that the stu- dent government does not affect each student personally and that the stu- dent government is not a true reprea sentation of each students' thoughts.

Perhaps he would see ho-1 he is affected by the SGA and l, would see how the SGA has tried 'l reach him. The Gripe-in is one examp where the student was invited to voir his opinions openly, and ask questiorj freely. ln some cases it was the firi time a student knew about the SGI, The SGA Nlailout was sent to all stir dents in an effort to let them knot what SGA is and what it has been df ing for them. Lastly, the Student Go- ernment Associations Election wasii final effort to give the student a me bile force of the vote. A little moiil than one tenth of the student bodi voted and less than that number knei why they were voting or what the were voting for. 5 What students do not realize that the SGA directs a vital part ci BCC's social and academic life. Pei haps half of the students are aware c the social events that are open and fre to them as a result of the SGA. Earl in the year, a rock concert was give. by the Rhodes Brothers in the Ho- pitality Centre. Later on in the semen ter a concert was given by the Assoc ation in the gym. There were a nurr ber of students protesting the limitini qualities of the gym as a concert arez The SGA contracted the AlImar Brothers and Clarence Carter to giv an outdoor concert. The concert was' success and there were few catastrc' phies to mar the night.

The atmosphere is informal and relaxing and the quality performers are easily enjoyable. to life the desires of the students. julian Bond was contracted ex- pressing a radical view of education. john Tower lectured on world and government affairs. john Lindberg lec- tured on ecology. Each of these was a result of the Student Government's ef- forts. If none of this interests the stu- dent, if he cannot find this entertain- ment relevant, the SGA has more. Next year there will be a series of rela- tively small, but not insignificant events sponsored by the SGA, lf the student is fascinated by watching a championship chess tournament, or by watching a professional bullfrog race or challenging the national tiddly-wink champion, the SGA will be his vehicle next year. The SGA is there to please the students as far as entertainment is concerned. This startling record of social ac- complishments does not make up for the list of academic endeavors which are affected by the SGA. The 3.0 cut system for sophomores which is now a school policy was introduced by the past student government. Recently the SGA has tried to establish a cut system for second term freshment with a 3.0 average. As a result of the election re- ferendum this question is being pur- sued, although the administration is strongly against it. Grace Camberari -36 .au Barbara DeStout Barb Minto l if if w 83 Ecology is a popular subject now and maybe students should know more about it other than what is printed in the newspapers. The SGA will be the source ol motion for this new course that will be offered at BCC. For more solid evidence ol' SGA's relevance to the student, the untortu- nate victim ol the draft will receive a IOO percent refund of tuition fees. The faculty will be fined equally with students for oncampus traffic regula- tions and for additional parking decals. The SGA is involved with establishing an oncampus day care center which would affect every student on campus with young children. The SGA has also voiced its opinions on the I8 vear-old vote, the Vietnam POW's, and police harrassment on Ft. Lauderdale beaches. A solution to the problem of the unconcerned SGA is within everv student. The SGA obviously is not the source of the problem nor is it the an- swerg but, a student vvho is curious, a- ware and responsible will not find the SGA a farce. The student government is only as good as the individuals in- volved and no one can claim to be per- fect. The nevvlv elected officers and senators will have a problem on their hands. It vvon't be anv thing nevv to them because most of them are experi- enced in governing a student bodv that is hard to reach. The new officers have new ideas, nevv methods. Under the leadership of Larrv Brannon as Presi- dent, Barbara DeStout as Vice-Presr dent, Donna Lucia as Treasurer, and Grace Cam berari as Secretaiv, the SGA will have another chance to face the accusations of being unconcerned. Maybe the students will see this time that they are the ansvver. 6 fr lv pe Tl Sr as-ng Left, Ray Maresse, lady Shank, john Stevens, john King, S leve Siegel The lticlfcral Branch of the Student Cor ernment ,4ssocit1ti'on of Broward Conzmtuiitji' College rs established to arte the student gtifdance, and where need exists, correction, so that he may bet ome a better member ot' this college t'oni1ntuirI,i'. The above is the Preamble to the bylaws tor the Student Supreme Court ol the Student Government Associa- tion KSGAJ of Broward Community College. The Preamble exemplifies the role in which the Supreme Court works within the SGA. Composing, the Student Supreme Court on the Broward campus are four associate justices and the chief justice. The members for the l970-7l school term were Chief justice Steve Siegel, Senior Associate justice john Stevens, Associate justices Ray lvlaresse, judy Shank, and john King. The justices are appointed to the Supreme Court by the President of the SGA, pending, approval ot the Senate. These justices serve a three year term or until graduation, whichever comes lirst, The Chiel justice is chosen by a plurality poll ol the senate. All justices prior to their appoint- ment must obtain and continue to maintain during their tenure in office a 2.0 average. The Supreme Court lttts .1 two-Iold duty: the first is to adjudicate on slu- dent cases in violation ol college laws or regulations. The second duty is to interpret the Constitution bylaws and amendments to the Constitution of the SGA. The Chief justice, in concurrence with the Dean of Student Affairs, has the right to deem a case inappropri- ate and refuse to have the case come before the Supreme Court. The disci- plinary docket for the l97O-7l school year was filled, so that the Supreme Court was constantly hearing and re- viewing cases. The court also heard inperpretive cases where students had petitioned the court into action. Here again, the court has the right to reject the hear- ing of any case at its discretion. Two of the major problems that the Court contended with during the year were the numerous cases concern- ing stolen books and plagarism on campus. Various disciplinary prece- dents were set that will be kept on the court files to be used for reference by future Supreme Courts. The Supreme Court under Chief justice Siegel! methodical direction was active constantly during the school term. The year of court deci- sions was greatly enhanced by the wis- dom ot the Senior Associate justices, john Stevens and Ray lvlaresse. The re- maining two justices, judy Shank and john King, were appointed in October and were apprenticed by the experi- enced justices. During the 1970-7l year, the stu- dent Supreme Court tried to be repre- sentative ol an impartial, objective ju- dicial body acting for the betterment ol the student body. The selective quality of the justices acted as a cohe- sive unit to administer and accomplish this end. by lady Shank 84 CC Supreme Court THE SUPREME COURT HAS A TWO-FOLD DUTY: THE FIRST IS TO ADJUDICATE ON STUDENT CASES IN VIOLATION OF COLLEGES LAWS OR REGULATIONS. THE SECOND DUTY IS TO INTERPRET THE CONSTITUTION BYLAWS AND AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE SGA. , Student Investigation Bureau THE STUDENT INVESTIGATIONS BUREAU RECEIVED A COMPLAINT THAT SILVER SANDS WAS CONTROLLED BY THE BCC DRAMA DEPARTMENT. The Student Investigation Bureau is a standing committee of the Student Government Association. It investi- gates comlaints made by students con- cerning all aspects ofthe college, Mem- bers Bette lean Gould fchairmanl, Chris Bauer lsecretaryl, lack johnson, Byron Saunders, and Terry Cleveland have received some thirty-eight com- plaints this year. Some of the complaints received included: Cigarette machines wanted on campus. The Bureau discovered that the bookstore and Hospitality Centre would be glad to have cigarette machines, but state law prohibits such a machine on a campus when the majority of the students are under twenty-one. Bookstore prices too high: The re- sults of investigation showed that all students get twenty percent off on all Bette lean Gould and Terry Clevefancl books sold. The Bookstore buys these books for twenty percent discount from the publishers and this is the a- mount at which the new books are sold. They do make money from used books bought and re-sold at the book- store, l Cafeteria prices too high: The cafeteria is now selling food at the lowest prices it can afford. The cost of food has been rising over the past few months and could be considered part of the reason. Another reason is the regular disappearance of utensils from the Hospitality Centre. The Food Commission must make up the cost of this loss and it must be reflected in the price of the food and beverages. Yearbook: A complaint was made that the Silver Sands was being con- trolled by the Drama Department, since some organizations were not cov- ered, and the plays and productions were given adequate coverage. The Bureau found that since Silver Sands comes out twice a year, different stress is laid upon the organizations accord- ing to the term. Since Drama combines both education and student activities, and extends throughout the school year, it receives more space in the mag- azine than social organizations. Forms were sent to the sponsor of every stu- dent activity-supported club, team, staff and group. The organizations that answered the forms were covered in Silver Sands. The ones that did not reply were sent second notices, asking for appointments for pictures. The ones that did not answer either form are not in the magazine, 85 The remaining topics were: Parking Decals Interest clubs Tissue paper Telephones loss of money Trucks on sidewalks Passing twenty dollar bills luke box Validity of tickets Language lab Nova students in Hospitality Centre Trees on campus Water fountains water pressure too low Bookstore and library hours SGA Public newspapers wanted on campus Hiring of bands Benches in halls Hiring of faculty Music practice rooms wanted Ducks around the Hospitality Centre Using faculty bathrooms. Any student, staff, or faculty member is invited to go through the files of the SIB, located in the SGA of- fice. Interested students are urged to participate as a member of SIB, The duties of an investigator are to discuss the particular complaint with an auth- orityg to find out why a particular situ- ation is as it is, and to find out how the situation can be remedied. If the problem can not be solved directly by the authority, Student Government can appeal to the administration to change the problem. Any further information can be obtained by calling the SIB at exten- sion 309. Bon When I was first asked to write this article on the Student Activities Board I had mixed emotions, Being in both Student Government and a board member I've seen the Board both from the outside as well as the inside. I also saw last year's S. A. B. at work as wll as this year's Board so that my evalua- tion of this year's Board is perhaps not as obiective as it could be. I have heard from others how the great three- headed S. A. B. sea-serpent makes ar- bitrary and irrational decisions. I have seen the near-reverence lor irreverence, depending on your position on a ques- tionl with which the S. A. B.'s deci- sions are received. The truth of the matter is that the S. A. B. is one of the most overexposed, over-rated, overemphasized, misunderstood organ- izations on this campus. Overexposedi It seems that with- out fail every S. A. B. meeting is duly reported on by our campus newspaper on page one. lt seems that every year this publication also has an article on the S. A. B. This is not to say that the business done by the S. A. B. is not important but aren't there other student-faculty committees on cam- pus? Don't they meet to discuss col- lege-wide questions also? And if the answer is no, shouldn't this fact be publicized also? Over-rated: Throughout the year organizations come before the S. A. B. to request funds to make-up a dehcit, finance some new idea or go on a con- vention. While the Student Activities budget for this year totals SI27,25O. the S. A. B. has control of S9,078., or only TZ of this figure. From this the S. A. B. must finance state and national tournament for athletics and forensicsfeach of which may cost several thousands of dollars - besides the many varied requests which come before it. The Student Activities Board does not have an unlimited source of funds and to find their refusal to fi- nance a proiect an irrational act is of- ten to overlook this basic fact of fiscal life and overrate S. A. B.'s resources. Overemphasized: Until the prepar- ation of budget for the fiscal year be- ginning luly I, l97I the Student Ac- tivities Board has had an approximate maximum sum which would be alloca- ted to Student Activities budgets lin this year's target figure was SI 26,500l. As of this year this is no longer the case. Instead the board must blindly build a Student4Activities budget with no rough estimate as to what the hnal total figure should be. This lack of a total sum within which the S. A. B. must work has led to a very serious consequence. With one exception all the budget proposals to come before this year's S. A. B. have been approved in toto. The Stu- dent Activities Board has not accom- plished its most important taskg that of constructing a Student Activities budget. l noticed it has served as a rub- ber stamp for the various budgets to come before it. It should also be point- ed out that the S, A. B.'s approval of a budget is not the final word but only a recommendation to the President who then makes up the Student Activ- ities budget which the Board of Trust- ees votes on. Both the responsibility and the influence of this year's Stu- dent Activities Board have been over- emphasized. Misunderstood: For some unex- plicable reason those individuals who sit on the Student Activities Board are expected to be clairvoyant Solomans. They are expected to justify the Board's actions to any person whi doesn't agree with the Board's decisio regardless of whether or not he hz ever attended any portion of any Board meeting, much less the meeti at which that particular issue was dir cussed and stayed to hear and listen t the full discussion. Board members ar expected to do this calmly, in detai and in depth. I Board members are also suppose- to be fair, unbiased, courteous ani ego-less. This is nonsense. The Studerfi Activities Board is an agravating, baci- -biting, bias-filled board whose merry bers are there many times to inflatil their own egos. The ethics of making the preceeding statement may be quesl tionable but many former Board merrl bers will agree with this evaluation li only in privatel of the Student Activw ties Board and it is something that feel should be a matterof public recor for all prospective S. A. B. member, to know. The Board's personality i something that is easily misunder stood. As I stated when I began this art: cle my emotions were mixed about writing on the S. A. B. I could hav, written the usual platitudes about th' difficulty in constructing a Studeni Activities budget. I could have laudei the Board's wisdom in its handlin 5I27.25O. I could have described th- many wonderful and worthy things fo which that SI27,250 was spent. could have further enhanced the image of the great three-headed S. A. B sea-serpent. Instead l feel it is neces sary to talk about the other side of thi coin. I feel it is necessary to put the Student Activities Board back in it proper perspectiveg to bring the S. A. B.'s sea-serpent back into the realm o reality: to see the Student Activitier Board deflated. I fSteve Stiegel- 86 i l Pro Editors Note The purpose ofthe Student Activ- ities Board is to determine budget al- lotments for student organizations and activities. lf you glance at the inside cover of Silver Sands, you will notice it too is under SAB jurisdiction. De- bate, plays, musical tours, athletics, SGA, Phoenix, Pan Ku, Readers Theatre, and other groups are among SABB concern. The SAB's word is not Hnal, but must be approved by Dr. Young, Dean of Student Affairs, and Dr. Adams, the college president. The suggested budget for the 71-72 terms totaled almost 5 l 73, 000, an increase of about 3096 over this year's total. With the projected stu- dent enrollment, this worles out to an increase of a dollar a term per student. The administration felt this figure was too high, considering the tight money situation, so the budget was sent bacle to the SAB with a request to cut it by 7096. The Board refused to do this, feeling that the increase was justified. The outcome is still in question. Both Young and Adams have the power to cut the budget themselves, but whet- her they will exercise this power is a different matter. The membership of the Board has changed throughout the year, but as of April, consisted of: Miss julie Koenig, Mr. llflax Hall, Mr, Thomas Harrell, Mr. Robert Livermon, Mr. W. Hall Whaley, Dr. Young, Mr. William Vaught, Paul- ette Robles, Carl Turnbull, Bill E ather- ly, Terry Tafoya, Bob Goodwin, and Steve Siegel. joan McLean served as SAB Chairman. The Student Activities Board is a big spender on campus. Toward the end of the school year they meet once or twice a week, to allocate a budget in excess of Sl50,000. This money fi- nances a variety of things, ranging from rock concerts to sports to publi- cations and many other activities. The SAB consists of six students, six faculty members, a chairman who votes only in case of a tie, and two ex- officio members, Mr. Vaught and Dr. Young. But most important, the board spends your money. The board members take their business seriously. They have to allo- cate the entire student activities bud- get, and they are concerned that mon- ey is spent soley to benefit the major- ity of BCC students. Divisions or Departments, such as HPR, submit budgets to the SAB, that will use student activities funds. This year, as a matter of fact, they ran the HPR budget through the wringer twice, before approval. But mostly, they approve. And approve and approve. There has been some criticism of the SAB in this re- spect, with the student newspaper charging them with being a rubber stamp operation. ls the SAB a rubber stamp outfzt, serving the selfish interests of sly and sinister requesters of funds? Are ther, charlatans or criminals? llell no, if the SAB gives any ltind of hard time to someone like honest Rex Brumley, it is hopefully just symptomatic of their desire to serve the student body that they represent. One of the faculty- staff members has observed that it is the only organization he has seen where the student members are the conservatives, and the faculty mem- bers are the liberals. Where the faculty tends to routinely approve various re- quests lor funds by student organiza- tions, the students are inclined to chal- lenge such situations. lt is pretty much a matter of agreement upon mutual interests by the SAB and the various Departments. The Departments and the SAB both have the obiectives ol' the College and its students in mind. The planning and experienced expertise that the Depart- ments put into their requests does lead to what seems like routine approval by the SAB. - BOB GOODWIN f 1 2952 - was t Ll , in f al, s N evra s af: .bvi f Y is u t -s 'sI nas K 55 as M t f xt 87 Above, foe Registrato, Editor of Phoenix during '70-77.

BEST N EWSPAPER ON CAMPUS J l I ho by Party Loftus 5 Overloaded ashtrays, walls plaster- ed with graffiti, a coating ofold news- papers covering the indistinguishable floor, desks cluttered with odds and ends and a couple of typewriters almost worn out with overuse. Add to these several determined writers, and you get a vague idea of what the Phoenix is all about. Operated completely by students, the Phoenix is the weekly campus newspaper of Broward Community College. Under the advisement of Max Hall, journalism Area Leader, the Phoenix remains totally uncensored. From the legend of the phoenix rising from its own ashes, the news- paper got its name. The original news- paper, The Venetian Crier, was one of the first junior college newspapers to go weekly, with an average of six pages, During Term l of T967, the de- mise of the Venetian Crier heralded the start of two competing news- papers. The Paladin was to be the lib- eral, undomesticated paper, and the Guardian coupled a conservative lay- out with a liberal, student-orientated editorial policy. The fall of l969 saw still another change in the BCC news media. It was decided that one newspaper could pre- sent all the news of the college by combining the conservative, liberal, and middle-of-the-road points of view. It had come from the ashes of the old' campus newspapers, and was to be- called the Phoenix. One of the many familiar faces tor be found in the publications building,i which is located directly behind ther bookstore, is that of joe Registrato,, editor of the Phoenix. joe, along with' Managing Editor Bob Greene, is re- sponsible for most of the lay out work- on the newspaper. Also to be included in the editori- al staff is News Editor Tom Norris, and Sports Editor Ralph Lloyd. The Phoenix photographers are Bob Lutz and Dick Marley. The position of En- tertainment Editor has been shared by Ruben Betancourt, Fred Thurber, and more recently, by joleen Morgan. No less important to the paper are the staffers who contribute the major- ity ofthe news and features. They are: jay Rees, Nancy Schubert, Mike Burn- ey, joyce Hartman, Ron Digennaro, Cindy Thuma, judy Shank, and Patty Loftus. The Phoenix is financed by the student activities fund. Opinions ex- pressed in the paper are those of the editor and staff, and in no way reflect the attitude of the BCC staff or facul- ty.

We are steadily on ground wish- ing for the unfoldment of the sky when the awakening comes. Step by step we begin dropping the weights so that the balloons may take us higher towards our destination. Often the weights are heavy and are lifted again and again until they find their home midst the earthly land and sea. Sometimes they are too heavy and must stay on board unrelinquishing in their silent demand. As the balloons carry us upward the unreality of hu- man Gods reach out, and we touch their hands slipping almost dazed into the reality of their true existence. As entertainment writers for the Phoenix, it is our job to cover the most interesting events happening in the community. This often includes special featured interviews like that of George Harrison, Marlene Dietrich, and Arlo Guthrie. There are many obstacles when at- tempting to get interviews among them getting past the 'little wigs' and up with the 'big wigs' where our re- qifest can be heard. This can be real frustrating and we instill perseverence foremost in our character or we're doomed before we start. Take for instance Ruben Betan- court who tracked down George Harri- son when all the newspaper reporters in Miami couIdn't do it. ln getting the Marlene Dietrich and Arlo Guthrie in- terview it took talking to many differ- ent people, propositioning them with publicity angles and literally pestering them to death. Sometimes this works and many ARLO times it doesn't. For instance I tried for two weeks, calling three times a day trying to get an interview with Sammy Davis lr., but no dice. I called again and again in hopes of getting a few minutes with loan Crawford but she was loo busy, I as- sumed drinking her Pepsi-Cola. I tried Betancourt's tactics by tracking down Ann Bancroft when I found out she was in town, but to F10 avail. So you see the successes are weighed heavily by failures. However the success's are mind expanding often throwing you togeth- er with obstacles that are relentlessly nerve shattering. I worried lor days over one quest- ion I wanted to ask Arlo Guthrie. The question was concerning the IParkin- son's Diseasel which his father Woody Guthrie died from. lt is often heredi- tary. Come time for the interview I was still debating my question and then Arlo decided it for me, I wouldn't ask him. A reporter must deal with an eye for news and foremost his own individ- ual principles. intruding upon the privacy of an individual and to what extent is our own judgement. This can be a big hangup especially since the maiority of younger entertainers are taking a stand for recognition in their profession and privacy in their lives. They're a new breed of stars, unlike the elders of the past. Marlene Detrich handled the press with a strong hand, refusing to utter anything she didn't wish too, but with that strong hand was a leniency for the press and her life as an actress, Interviewing Arlo was like looking in the mirror and asking myself quest- ions, the last question being, is this for real?

Objective discussions concerning the relative merit of any given work occur fre- quently. During one of these discuss- ions the past semester, a staff member burned a poem and almost asphyxi- ated the entire staff with fumes. Despite episodes such as these, which will naturally occur in the course of any creative, cooperative en- terprise, somehow the final choices are selected.

The con- vention was held at Columbia Univer- sity in New York City on March 11, 12, and 13. The Columbia Scholastic Press As- sociation was organized at Columbia University in the fall of 1924. lt grew out of several annual gatherings of edi- tors and staff members from various prep schools in the greater New York area. Since that time, over 54,000 newspapers and magazines have been entered in the annual contests sponsor- ed by the association and nearly 150,000 students have attended. Those who attended the conven- tion were Bob Greene PHOENIX man- aging editor, Tom Norris PHOENIX news editor, Vicki Ballentine P'AN KU editor, Steve jacobs P'AN KU art and photography editor, Chylene Cor- bett and, myself, Gene Spadoni SIL- VER SANDS' associate editors, and Dennis Gibson of P'AN KU. The convention played host to over 4000 high school and college re- presentatives. It was geared basically for the newspaper, although there were numerous magazine and year- book seminars. The topics of discus- sion were diverse and for the most part aimed at teaching the typical student on a newspaper or magazine staff to produce a publication of exceptional quality. Professional journalists, many noted in their particular field, gave prepared talks at set hours. Max Hall was one ofthe speakers at the conven- tion. His topic was Photography and lts Relationship to Newspaper Usage. Among the speakers present were lud- ith Crist, film critic for the Today Show, New York Magazine and T.V. Guide, and Clive Davis, President of Columbia Records. Among the nation- al publications and organizations re- presented at Columbia were the New York Times, the Associated Press, Newsweek, Seventeen, Boy's Life, The New Yorker, the Overseas Press Club, Wall Street journal, McCalls and the Christian Science Monitor. Doctor Stanley Einstein, Execu- tive Director of the Institute for the study of drug addiction presented one Seven students from Broward an ,.v, l in 1- I S IA. by Gene Spadoni' of the highlights of the convention, a special two part program. The focus of this presentation was an over-view of the misuse of drugs and how this re- lates to the responsibilities in writing of the student reporter. Dr. Einstein a leading psychologist in the New York Metropolitan area throughout the six- ties is the founder of the ISDA, and has been associated with many organi- zations and institutions dealing with drug addiction. New York is our nation's largest and most awesome city and free time was spent by the students packing as many sites into three days as was pos- sible. Included on the busy agenda were the United Nations, the Guggen- heim Museun, the Statue of Liberty, Rockerfeller Center, and the Empire State Building. lt was difficult to be- lieve that such a beautiful Central Park existed in the midst of a concrete Man- hattan. It may seem equally difficult to imagine a spectacular church, but St. Patrick's Cathedral was simply spectacular. Chinatown proved to be a remarkable city within a city and of course there were the Broadway plays. Taxies, hot pretzels, subways and people. But it was the people that was the most outstanding feature of New York City. They were the city and with the exception of surprisingly 91 very few individuals, they were all fantastic folks. They were always wil- ling to offer assistance land Heaven knows we needed help when riding on the subwaysll One morning around 7 a.m., Chylene Corbett and l were photographing St. Patrick's Cathedral from around the corner, A sweet little old lady of about 60 approached us. She grabbed my arm and smiled. Ya know ya kin go right inside and take pitchahs, sweety. She seemed terribly reminiscent of Ruth Gordon in Rose- mary 's Baby. RealQy? Oh yeah, honey ' she purred. lust go on in. There's another church down the street, St. john the Divine's. lt ain't Catholic, but its soooo pretty. Ya gotta see that too, honey! With that she released my arm, smiled and was on her way. That sweet, little old lady made my whole trip. The three days events were culmi- nated in a luncheon at the New York Hilton. Dr. William l. McGill, Presi- dent of Columbia University, spoke. lt was with mixed feelings that seven students and one teacher left New York. However, the knowledge gained was of great benefit to their re- spective publications and especiallx to themselves and their outlook on life.

The convention also supplied many interesting programs on theatre, lor instance, Dialogue in Lighting by Abe Federg a discussion on Rheto' ric Acting along with a panel of profes- sors Irom dillerent universities discuss- ing the program alterward. There was tl lecture on Understanding Shake- spe.rr'e. 'l he convention also supplied the- atrical entertainment, as perI'ormers lrom universities put on shows. Flor- ida State University performed cl Cliilclrc-n's Theatre production of Han- sel and Gretel. The University ol Flor- ida presented a program in mime,with their mime troupe doing various slsits. The Springer Opera House also, presented entertainment, the Effects of Gamma Rays on the lVlan-In-The- lVl0on's Marigolds, a moving drama and winner ol the New Yorls Critics Circle Award in l97ll.

A member of that group of honored few which comprises of those who have attained a high average in their school work. There are many benefits reserved for members of Phi Theta Kappa. One of them, and the most coveted one, is special recognition at graduation. There are scholarships which are of- fered only to Phi Theta Kappa mem- bers. The members can also get recom- mendation to any school of their choice. Yellow roses! Yellow candles! Hush! Faces blending into each other! The long walk!

Phi Theta Kappa also sponsors a Thanksgiving Food Drive which benefits needy people. Phi Theta Kappa is not all work and no play. Last February l went to the State Convention in Tallahassee. Although there was a lot of business to attend to, there were also parties and a banquet, not to mention the dance on the last night we were there. I think that the most enjoyable activity of the 95 convention was meeting Phi Theta Kappa members from all oxer the state of Florida. Another highlight of the State Convention was the nomination of Steve Humphries lone of BCC's Phi Theta Kappansl for the Phi Theta Kappa National Presidency.

' ' 52 , 4 -qwrs3,6,g: ln an age such as ours, it seems that misunderstanding is the pedestal on which we place knowledge. People become con- fused and find themselves resenting organi- zations and beliefs about which they have no true comprehension. This is a problem which has reduced significantly the value of young but rapidly expanding service-draft counseling. A popular misconception is that draft counselors are trying to help possible military service inductees flee the country or to find ways for them to evade the draft. Legal draft counseling however, is about as far as one can be from these tactics. Accord- ing to the Peace Center of Miami's Newslet- ters printed in November 1970: We do not offer registrants 'loopholes' or easy ways to avoid the draft. lt is only by scrupulously complying with his duties and obligations under the Selective Service Law that a regis- trant enhances his chances of securing the classification he deserves. Draft counseling is a public service to which every young man approaching draft age should be exposed. Too many of us are unaware of the purposes of this counseling. A basic purpose of the centers is informa- tion. Registrants are informed of their du- ties, their alternatives, and their privileges under the law. How doesa counselor work? He finds out through interview what the applicant wants to do, what information he is seeking and why. He advises him of his alternatives and what they involve and require. A counselor may also question an applicant concerning his personal beliefs and values. The counselor will leave the ultimate decision up to him. A counselor will not tell him what he should dog rather, he will en- courage the applicant to follow his own con- science and make his own decisions. Mr. Arlo Tatum, a prominent counselor and authority on draft, has said: Counselors only advocate that you get the fullest possi- ble information, consider your choices care- fully in terms of your own values, and make your own decisions. lf you don't, chance and your draft board will decide for you. ln another issue of the Peace Center of Miami's Newsletter the author found an in- teresting opinion: ... ignorance which fosters blind cooperation is not in the best interests of the traditions of a democracy and bears no resemblance to patriotism. lf counseling is done according to the law it can be of great benefit to the draft Boards as well as the registrants. Many young men go to draft centers seeking infor- mation and find themselves relegated to sec- retaries who are not equipped to handle them. There are approximately 4,100 draft boards in the United States but very few of them offer adequate printed information or counseling to the draft registrant. If a regis- trant is interested in such information or counseling he must find some other means of getting it. In too many casss men wait until they have received their induction notice before seriously considering what is going to happen to them. Not everyone at this time is fortunate enough to be located in an area which has already established a By Dennis Foster , as told to .raft counseling counseling service. By this time it is usually too late to write counseling agencies in other parts of the country. These men de- velop a sense of frustration and bewilder- ment and are forced to make a choice on a subject about which they have not been educated. This information gap has been recognized and concerned citizens have begun to set up more draft counseling cen- ters in every part of the United States. The counseling services could save the government millions of dollars every year. Many are probably not aware that there are more than 10,000 medical reasons which may keep a young man from being in- ducted. This figure is taken from the Army manual Regulations Medical Service Stan- dards of Fitness. ln this publication one may find every possible medical condition that would make a registrant ineligible for the draft. A few examples are acne, exces- sive tattos, dental braces, and even ugliness. A counselor can not encourage any of these conditions, but he can make you aware of Their existence. In this area the author found that in 1969 there were 16,271 men inducted who later had to be discharged for medical difficulties that should have been uncovered during their physicals. These fig- ures, released by the United States General Accounting Office, also reveal that as the result of this oversight American taxpayers shelled out 17.9 million dollars to pay for the training and equipment of these men, as well as all the benefits they receive upon dis- charge. These benefits include medical care and the G.l. Bill. At this time a draft counseling service has just opened its doors on this campus. A young man by the name of Dennis Foster has organized this counseling service. He is an extremely capable counselor and one who has taken the time and energy involved in setting up a service which will be free to anyone interested. Dennis was trained at the Peace Center of Miami and has been coun- seling for several months at a Hallandale draft counseling service sponsored by a local peace organization. 102 Right now the major problem is under- standing. Bad publicity and prejudice have given draft counselors and registrants who seek their advice a bad name. In an effort to find out how counseling on this campus would be received several veterans in the Hospitality Center were interviewed. The overwhelming position of these gentlemen was that they were definitely in favor of this counseling. Tom Bohn said, The counseling I received before entering the service was in adequate. An unbiased individual could have done a much better job. Mr. Robert Parr best expressed the feelings of the veterans interviewed when he stated: I would want to be damn sure of what I was getting into before it happened. The decision could very easily mean my life. If after reading this article you are interested in obtaining draft counseling, you may contact Dennis Foster in the Hospitali- ty Center or call him at his home - 581-2167. Another choice would be to call the Broward People for Peace draft counsel- ing service at 925-6097.
