events A Student Board of Governors committee was started to investigate the scheduling of student events. Arts senior John Kern, chairman of the committee, said the entire events situation in terms of scheduling, fi- nancing and student diversity of interests was at least five years behind the times. In trouble financially, the Board tried to duplicate last year ' s schedule starting with $13,000 less. One duty of the committee was to determine the amount of participation in scheduled events by the professional students. There is popular dissent among professional students against the mandatory $25 activity fee. The Byrds and their audience met for a short time during the first concert of the year. The majority of the audience came to hear songs like Mr. Tambourine Man and Turn, Turn, Turn, million dollar sellers for the Byrds in 1965. But their music has been chang- ing since then, to the present country-rock, and many dissatisfied students left the concert. During the past couple years the popularity of mixers has died considerably and few were held this year. Parties, small group activities and bars have taken over the once-reserved spot of the Friday night mixer. A four-part lecture series, the Institute on Human Values, began its second year. This year ' s theme was New Directions for Social Science in Higher Educa- tion, bringing to Creighton specialists in the field of history, sociology and economics. Charles Evers was the first all-university lecturer this year. Evers, the first Black mayor of Fayette, Miss., talked on What it Means to Care. Folk-singer Cyril Paul held a two hour concert empha- sizing reflections on war and race problems in song. Soul Week in November was a concentrated effort to offer the students maximum exposure to what it means to be black in this country. It was sponsored by United Power. Activities included a soul dinner, a lecture on the Negro Spiritual and an Afro-American style show. Arts senior John Sullivan wrote a Christmas Nativity scene play for midnight Mass on Christmas Eve. The five minute play was written in modern dialogue, but had an archaic sentence structure. 20
