The year 1940 was a troubled one. Students released fears and anxie- ties through frivolous fun, gold-hsh swallowing and campus-wide boosting. The year 1971 has also been a troubled one. Students are faced with a war in Vietnam, unrest at home, and a search for peace within themselves. Henderson has not ex- perienced violent protests common to many larger colleges. However, Henderson students share with other collegians the hope for world wide peace. On the birth of this new decade students realize .... ALL TOMORROWS WILL BE BETTER THAN TODAY . . .

Ron Mazzia. and Tom Greening Progress! The academic year 1970-71 was a year of new awareness on the Henderson Campus. Attempts were made to improve student-to-student and facul- ty-to-student communications. Early in the year a group of students organized to make the two year mandatory ROTC program into a voluntary one. After considerable peaceful action by the group. the issue was presented to the Board of Trustees. The Board voted to drop the two year mandatory ROTC program at Henderson. A black-white student workshop. utilizing consul- tants from several out-of-state institutions. seemed to be a good starting point for better communication and understanding. Hopefully this type of activity will be continued and expanded to-touch more stu- dents. Beginning in the Fall the Council of Deans will implement a new policy regarding courses that are repeated. A student who repeats any D or F grade during his first 60 attempted hours. prior to his 90th attempted hour. will have only the last grade and credits used in figuring the cumulative grade point average. There was some talk of a student judicial board to be established in mens' residence halls. Significant student interest was not apparent but there is hope that the idea will be developed. It would appear that if discipline is to be an educational experience then students must be given. and be willing to accept. the responsibility for operating a judicial system. A student tutoring program was established by the Division of Student Affairs. Student and faculty tutors offered the free service to all students who indicated they needed assistance. The Student Senate spent more of its time this year bringing entertainment to the campus than trying to provide student government. Recognizing the prob- lem. the Senate is studying some form of Union Board that would administer all entertainment activ- ities, and free the Senate for governmental improve- ment. Basically the discussion centers on eliminating the out-dated class structure for elective oflice and replacing it with more relevant interest groups on the campus.
