A few minutes later the bus rolls down a hill at 45 m.p.h., the first of 80 trips it will complete that day. Aboard it are 14 of the 20,000 students enrolled on the Kent campus of KSU fall quarter. Behind the bus the sun gains height in the sky, burning away the mist in the low spots of the terrain. The story of one day at KSU has begun. Wednesday, Oct. 8, 1975 more than two dozen photographers set out to capture the essence of that day on film for the Chestnut Burr. Forty-six of the 7,200 photographs they took are presented here. These photographs are personal glimpses of moments which occurred. We feel it is moments such as these which made that day different from, yet similar to, every other day at KSU. .-4 M. Li .1 7 .' .

None of these phantoms from Kent's past would believe the changes that have occurred. lt's been a long road. 21 YQ-- I 1 'f -'N-ss Franklin Mills, named for the township and the flour and sawmills built along the Cuyahoga Fiiver, was just a few scattered houses along the Ravenna-Stow road in the early 1800's. The village anxiously awaited a financial boom when plans for the establishment of a silk mill became reality. Mills were built and mulberry trees for feeding the silkworms were planted. But the uncooperative little caterpillars who were supposed to munch those mulberry leaves and produce silk fiber instead died, ending the village's first attempt at industry. 22 So Zenas Kent's grand brick block on the corner of Main and North Water streets was left vacant, except for a few cows who occasionally took refuge from the rain in the hotel. The village got another chance at commerce when the Pennsylvania and Ohio Canal was built parallel to the river around 1836. Farmers could ship out goods and merchants could bring in goods via the Akron to Cleveland to Pittsburgh route. Travellers stayed overnight at Franklin Mills' inns or the hotel - cowless now - or guzzled a drink at a Water Street saloon while their canal boat waited its turn at the 54-,,,,-,H 5 C- V c an . f ,,..

During the Civil War, Marvin Kent took the reins of leadership from his Father Zenas and persuaded the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad to run a trunk line through the village in 1863. Marvin even instigated building the line's repair shops here, which created a large and lasting employer for residents. Growth of business and industry spurted and a grateful citizenry named the town in honor of Zenas four years later. By the 1870's and 80's the town began to modernize.

Two street lights were installed in the covered wooden Main Street bridge, which was replaced by the present stone structure in 1877. Professor Leon, a travelling showman, treated residents to a death-defying tightrope walk across the Cuyahoga as part of one July 4th celebration. The wandering cow ordinance of 1880, also applicable to horses and swine, effectively kept untended stock from the streets. The first electric lights flickered on here in 1887, with telephone service beginning shortly after. A trolley ride to Ravenna cost 10 cents, to Akron, 20 cents. 24 i' i l l At the turn of the century Kent was well on its way to becoming a city. In 1901, P. N. Eigner took a drive in the town's first car. I. D. Tuttle brought in the second car and almost immediately drove into a ditch - Kent's first auto wreck. More horseless carriages prompted Kent's first speed ordinance: an 8 mile per hour limit in the business section, and 15 mph allowed in residential areas. North Water was paved in 1903.

He landed nearby and his stopover here on his attempted first transcontinental flight made national news. So did his demise a year later when his engine stopped cold 250 feet over a field. But perhaps the greatest impact on the community was the state's choice of Kent as the site for a teacher training school. The town fathers, realizing the potential benefits of such an institution, did some politicking and steered the site selection committee away from Flavenna, a competitor, with a This page, top, skaters sweep snow off Blackbird Lake Cwhere Wills Gym standsj, a frog pond in summer and the school skating rink in winter, bottom, parking is no problem, as Professor Van Oeusen, one of KSU's first faculty members, stops his buggy in front of Kent Hall. fUniversity Archivesj hot meal and a hard sell. Kent won over 19 other sites, and Kent Normal School came into existence in 1910. Classes were offered at 20 extension centers almost immediately while Lowry and Merrill Halls were under construction on the 54-acre, tree-choked tract donated by William S. Kent, son of Marvin. President John McGilvrey had his hands full when the infant school opened its doors for summer training in 1913. The first student arrived a day early, the plaster in the dormitory wasn't dry, nor was the furniture unpacked. The QC C.-J -L. hr. , ,LL . - l xl' .tal . -'P ' sf-5. - ..f. T. . -'T ' .

The next morning arriving students flocked to the dining hall, where they were served breakfast on dishes borrowed from the Congregational Church. No equipment for classes had arrived, no book lists were available, crates littered the lawns. Faculty and students alike searched for lodgings. President McGiIvrey was ill with typhoid. His assistant, Dean John T. Johnson, somehow managed to get the 47 students of that first summer session registered and assembled for classes. 26 Growth of the school was at once phenomenal. The second summer session 290 students were enrolled. The following autumn 130 women and 6 men, who lived in town, began their year of teacher training. The next summer a huge tent for classes and assemblies was erected at the bottom of the hill, when this proved insufficient to assemble 1,400 students four circus tents went up on the hill.

Soon two other buildings, Kent Hall and the Administration Building, stood beside Lowry and Merrill Halls on 'Normal Hill.' Lowry housed 70 women and Merrill was the first classroom building. Kent Hall was used for agriculture and teacher training classes. And the Administration Building, besides the auditorium and library, contained a large room used as a gym. Between 1915 and 1926, the heating plant, Rockwell Library, an addition to the Administration Building and the Moulton dorm were built to accomodate the influx of students attracted to Kent Normal by the school's low cost. There were no instructional fees. A student could attend both summer sessions for about 360. The dorm offered room and board at S4 a week.

No, Christian Cackler would never believe it. Story by Laura Nagy 31 Making it home, off campus or on A large university can be impersonal. Overcoming the computerized anonymity can take a lot of effort. Some students find or create unusual home environments, others are thrown into bizarre situations. Gabe Laubacher lives in an apartment above Tinker Funeral Home. He said it's not as morbid as it sounds. Guys often think it's strange. The girls usually don't think anything of it. Gabe works part time making burial vaults with his father, so he is no stranger to the funeral business. Sometimes I help the Tinkers by picking up bodies or by driving cars in funerals. But other than that it's no different living here than in other places, except it's quieter. My room is right over the embalming room, but I never give it a second thought. Dan Goldfarb lives in a cupola at 508 Fairchild Ave. At one end he's built a wooden platform which divides the room into two levels. He said he's put a lot of work into creating an environment in which he can feel at home. I like my space. More people are beginning to realize that's what's important. They're beginning to appreciate their living environment. The day of the tie-dyes and the peace posters is gone. It's up to the individual now to make choices when putting together a place. lt becomes harder, but everybody's personality really comes out. Amy Burt and Nellie Conway live at 311 Franklin Ave. -in a house with no right angles. The rooms are trapezoidal, the floors and ceilings are slanted and the door frames are crooked. 32 44-Qi! I think it was built without a plan. We had to build crooked bookcases and had trouble fitting square carpet in the living room, Amy said. The high cost of living in Kent has driven many students to outlying towns where rent is lower. Two students and two former students live with five dogs, a bird and a cat in what used to be Brady Lake Fire House. Dan Burt said the siren still goes off in their house every night at 9 p.m. and every time there is a fire, even though the Brady Lake Volunteer Fire Department moved to a new station two months ago. Two or three times a year the firemen practice putting out burning cars in our parking lot. They run around the building a couple times and put them out. The Captain Brady Day parade starts in our parking lot every year. Eight o'clock in the morning, drums and cymbals outside our window. Linda Lazarri and Maggie Stouthammer, who live outside Brady Lake, do not have running water but pay only S25 rent per month. lt's an inconvenience. We have 75-pound water jugs we fill at gas stations and friends' houses, Linda said, but it's worth it because the rent is so cheap.

Photos by Lee Ball 35 Dorm decor SN 4 i if One of the most dismal places on campus is a dorm room in which no one lives. The bare walls, clean but dirty-brown linoleum and stripped bunks create an institutionalized atmosphere. There is little to distinguish the room from a hospital room until students move in. Then the room comes alive with sounds from a stereo, the colors of flowered or patchwork quilts thrown across the beds, pictures and posters hung on the walls, swinging bead curtains and plants in hanging planters by the window. Homey touches are added - beer bottles line the windowsill, a shaggy foot-shaped rug is thrown on the floor, an extra arm chair and a footstool make the room a comfortable place to study or watch TV. Students escape through diversity in home decor. Two Allyn Hall students, Marla Giudice and Lynn Schumacher, Iivened their room by painting a huge sun mural on one wall, Bill Vokovick and Jeff Flockor, architecture students in Koonce Hall, creatively used wood by flanking their walls with modular shelves made from ammo boxes. Some of the boxes date to the Korean War. 36 One student, Mike Giovannone, a sophomore public relations major, brought a strange friend to Clark Hall with him. He has a coffin in his room. He says it is his travelling companion and makes a dandy footlocker. At present the coffin serves as a convenient shelf for bottles, candles and another old friend - a skull named Fred. Giovannone's roommate, Reed Schnittker, said the coffin was at first a shock, but it no longer intimidates him or the pair's neighbors. A group of friends gathers there every afternoon, but not to participate in any macabre ritual -they come to watch TV. Story by Mary Mullin This page, left, two Allyn Hall residents.

Three freshmen You can learn a lot just from your environment. You can't learn everything from books. FK 3 : Dona Syroski's class schedule illustrates a typical student problem. The original gave her English, biology, chemistry, introduction to nursing and ice skating - everything she requested, but at the wrong times. They had me scheduled to commute on Thursdays for just one class, she recalled, and one day they had me starting at 8:50 and staying all day just for an evening class. Dona went through drop and add and found no other classes suited her scheduling plans. She was told to wait. Ten minutes later, she was handed a new schedule which gave her the same classes at the times for which she had preregistered. I don't understand this system at all. Why couldn't they have just done it that way in the first place? Pam Mojzer lives in Olson Hall, Tom Donovan in Johnson Hall. They enjoy living on campus, although both dislike the mandatory 2-year on-campus housing plan. l'd live off-campus if l had a choice, Pam said. lt would be nice to have the choice, Tom agreed, but it really isn't all that bad. I live here with my best friend and we've met a lot of people just by leaving our door open. lf there is an already-been-here tone to the above scenes it is because Dona, Pam and Tom are freshmen, the state that is a gateway to familiarity with KSU. Whether or not their ,, Mx J 5- ff Qllllli l,.: Q i ' ' B ' 'il - :LI F I i 1 A l ,, las I j - . Nr x impressions change awaits the seasoning of a few quarters here. Pam, an art major from nearby Munroe Falls, was familiar with Kent before coming to KSU. She lived close enough to commute, but decided her life had been too sheltered after attending an all-girls high school. l like living away from home, she said. There's a lot more freedom. l think you can learn a lot just from your environment. You can't learn everything from books. Tom, a marketing major from Cleveland, agreed with Pam. But with that freedom, he said, comes a sense of responsibility. It makes you want to do something instead of having to do it. Commuting is practical for Dona, a nursing major. She drives about 20 miles to Kent four days a week from Walton Hills. I have a horse at home and l'm in a lot of shows, so it wouldn't be practical for me to live here, she said. Still, l'd like to see some of the things that go on here at night. Exactly what does go on at night? The bars are downtown, if that's what you want to do, Tom said. We can play ping-pong or pool or just stay in the dorm. uni!! vi' It can get noisy, though, and that gets to be a bother, he added. Pam wasn't impressed by the downtown night life. Nothing about Kent really surprised me, she said, except that there really are a lot of high people around here. I just didn't expect that. All three seem to enjoy their classes and think their instructors are doing a good job. There's always someone ready to help out. The profs seem interested in what they're doing, observed Tom. Dona thinks the profs occasionally expect too much of students, but she is enjoying the classes. Of course, she added, l haven't gotten any grades yet. Do freshmen really get picked on as much as some people believe? Freshmen get put down by upperclassmen and the administration really pushes us around, said Pam. She said that when she requested a double room she was assigned to a triple. There's just not enough space for three people, she said. The school gets the biggest dorm turnout in years, so they shut down cafeterias. It just doesn't make sense. Q 'A I- if .ggi STA ,tj ,X R ,-gQw, -A, 2-. . Alf'-.f'1.'. . ' ' , .i 0 4 . saw A X .

I have to meet people in my classes, since I don't have much time between classes, said Dona. The people I've met so far seem to want to work. They're here to learn. I enjoy meeting them. Any embarassing moments so far? Just one. I was in the wrong building for my English class on the first day of school, Dona recalled. I walked into the wrong room after class had started. I felt strange walking back out, knowing all those people were staring. Story by Al Pfenninger.

Tom Donovan discusses KSU from a freshman's viewpoint. Last impressions Seniors Much of the time l've spent in the classroom has been wasted. N Three different people presumably would have three different views of college life. Especially at the senior level. By then, one would think future plans would be somewhat crystallized or mapped out to fit distinct personalities. That is not necessarily so. Cal Temple was an introvert when he entered KSU as a freshman in 1969. As a senior, he is no longer inward- looking. I view the university as a steppingstone to my future. More than actual class time, I value the personal contacts l have made - the knowledge I have gained about people and myself. Senior Kathy Smith concurred.

It's the long run, the next 20 years, that count. Another senior, Molly Wagner, once was walking past Bowman Hall when a man grabbed her by the arm and helped her down the stairs into the main entrance. The only trouble was that Molly did not want to go into Bowman Hall, but she runs into problems of that nature constantly. Molly Wagner is blind. She has learned in her three years here that people are not totally honest with me. People try to shelter me. One thing l've had to learn is to get people to treat me as a person. Period. People are basically concerned, she said, but do not know how to treat someone who is blind.

I am more aware of myself, and I think I know people much better than I did before coming to school, she said. l've been blind all my life.

Story by Al Richardson Photos by Matt Bulvony 41 A voice of alienation . The dropout It was in April 1973 that Dave Voelker wrote in a Daily Kent Stater Guest Column . .. There are very few people on this campus who don't feel in some vague and and indefinable way, that something is wrong with KSU . . . Everywhere I walk on this campus, the words spoken by Thoreau over a century ago echo ominously through my mind: 'The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation , . . ' lsn't that a perfect description of the silent panic that can be seen on the faces of practically every member of the university community as they rush back and forth between classes and appointments? Where are they going? Oh, they can tell you the building and room number, but does that answer the question? Never in my life have I seen an institution so lacking in purpose and direction. Where is this university going? It was the voice of alienation, but not despair. lt was also the voice of a KSU dropout, frustrated by an administration he thought uncommitted to providing direction and whose every statement he found filled with empty rhetoric, a faculty he thought was uncommitted to helping students resolve their intellectual confusion and a student body lacking in goals and evading reality through drug use. Only five hours short of graduation, Dave Voelker left the university after winter quarter 1973, never to return to earn his diploma. His words were articulate and his thoughts, though not all novel, were strikingly expressed. His ideas spurred a desire in this writer's mind to know what has become of Dave Voelker and his attitudes three years later. A university was a great place to go if you didn't know what the hell you wanted to do and you weren't interested in finding out. The university encourages directionlessness. lt's a great place to flounder because it allows for it. But at the same time, I really enjoyed the years I spent at Kent. Dave Voelker spoke as he sat in his living room in a big double home in Cleveland Heights last October. These days Dave puts in 40 hours a week in his father's restaurant appliance repair business. His free time is spent most often in reading, record-listening and at work on a satiric novel about universities. Intelligent and possessed of a mind more penetrating than most, he is an expansive individual and was glad to talk about his problems with KSU. ln doing so, he revealed his intellectual embrace of the fiercely rationalistic philosophy of Ayn Rand, which colored his reaction to KSU. Rand, something of a cult figure primarily as a result of her two novels, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead , espouses a philosophy of objectivism, holding that man must be guided exclusively by reason and his own happiness, that government's only function is to protect individual rights and that truth and ethics are not relative and subjective but can be known absolutely and objectively. Fortunately Voelker lacked the oft-mentioned self-righteousness of his philosophical mentor, he admitted he didn't have all the answers. As Voelker sipped a beer and dredged up the past, he appeared happy and content. He admitted no regret over premature departure from Kent. his He recalled his early hopes of finding KSU a university serious about providing direction for its students. Instead he found it to be a big jellyfish lacking, he said, a framework and philosophical standards, an institution that had lost sight of its primary purpose: to teach. Voelker admits the university's lack of purpose and goals resembled his own personal situation when he entered school. He studied little his first year but earned a 3.97 average. 19,4 ' 4 r After that, he said, I knew the university was bulIshit. His reaction to the university grew increasingly troubled. I didn't have direction but I wanted it, Voelker recalled, and the university was supposed to give it. Maybe I was mad because the university let me get away with all the things I got away with. The experience that led to VoeIker's dicision to drop out was his failing a five-hour pass-fail course in geography during the 1973 winter quarter. Although his test scores were passing, Voelker says the instructor told him he was failed because of his lack of attendance. The loss of those five hours precluded his receiving a diploma, more importantly, it crystallized his criticisms of the university by making him see what was, to him, the absurdity of earning five more hours in an education he considered meaningless. Truth, he said, was up for grabs in cIasses. He objected to professors declaring a college education should take high school students and make them confused and insecure since confusion is the first step to knowledge. You'd go into philosophy classes, Voelker said, and all they'd do is overwhelm you with 'this guy believes this and this guy believes that.' And you say 'What should I believe? Which one of those guys is right?' Voelker was a member of the KSU Student Senate at a time when it involved itself in social issues and controversies. On several occasions Voelker clashed with the predominant opinion of the Senate, he saw what he regarded as an inability of students to be objective and see both sides of an issue. He pointed to their reaction following the 1972 shootings of two students at Southern University in Louisiana following a police-student confrontation. Student government wanted to condemn the action only 24 hours after the event when there were still many rumors , i IlI going around, he said. Because four were killed at Kent State, they were ready to draw conclusions between the two shootings. I was amazed and astounded that people are so quick to call policemen 'rednecks' and judge them on the basis of no evidence. They were not interested in finding out the evidence because they didn't want to hear that the students were at fault, if that turned out to be the case. Voelker said he found the majority of students lacked goals and too easily conformed to prevailing liberal sentiments, while often evading reality through drugs. Being in college gives the illusion of progress with all the books and papers, he said. But the ultimate test of higher education's worth must be the success of its pupils in meeting the challenges of their lives. What better proof of its dismal failure than the incredible incidence of drug use on campus - they're not embracing reality, they're escaping from it. Looking ahead, Voelker says he would eventually like to move to California and, if possible, make his living as a writer. The novel he is currently writing is called Universe City and will depict a university that does everything but teach. His departing Guest Column leaves past, present and future KSU students with a rather chilling metaphor . . . These are the questions I leave you with. How you answer them is no longer of any concern to me. If I may borrow an analogy from one of my favorite writers, KSU is a huge jetliner streaking through the stratosphere at tremendous speed, upon which you are all passengers. It won't be too much longer before you discover that the cockpit is empty. I'm bailing out now. Story by Ron Kovach, Photos by Matt Bulvony.

He said he was sold on the beauty of the campus the minute he saw it. lt looked like a good place to get your head into studying, he recalled. A Cleveland native, Daryl said he was also impressed by the easy-going nature of the community. Daryl majored in special education and elementary education and is still taking classed to keep up with advancements in- his field. He was active in many professional organizations but said he recently left them to devote more time to his family and his new pastime, flying. He is also remodeling his home. Katherine Bencze, a 1975 KSU graduate, teaches elementary school in Streetsboro. She attended high school in Cleveland and said she came to Kent to be away from home, yet close enough to visit without a lengthy drive. Katherine was a KSU student for two years, then transferred to Akron University and became a part-time student. Going to school part time wasn't getting me any place, she said, so she returned to KSU to finish her degree in elementary education. l really can't pinpoint it, said Katherine, discussing why she chose to stay in town. We had the apartment here, so why bother to move? But we are freer to do a lot more, just because it's less busy here. Katherine and her husband plan to move as soon as money will permit, but said they had found there is a better understanding of problems here than in other nearby towns. It is also easier to form casual friendships here, said Katherine. A lifelong resident of Kent calls it the greatest town in the world. I probably know 80 per cent of the town, said Ed Kordinak.

Y ' 3 fQ I N I l'm sure today's students have the same goals and philoso- phies that we had, but they're much better prepared and have more opportunities, said Dr. Arthur Tuuri, who re- ceived the 1975 KSU Outstanding Alumnus Award at the annual Alumni Day luncheon. Tuuri, a 1942 KSU graduate with a B.S. in Education, has been president of the Mott Children's Health Center in Flint, Mich. for 27 years. l'm going to make an effort to come back more often. The last time l've been on campus was 12 years ago, he said. Tuuri recalled the days he lived on High Street. Six of us cooked our own meals in a basement apartment, he recalled. When I was here, there were 2,700 students enrolled. You lose personal involvement and identity when you have a campus expand to this size, he said as he scanned the Student Center. I guess this is one of the things you lose when you have progress, he added. The training l had at KSU prepared me extremely well. I was as well prepared as any student. My training in biochemistry embryology and zoology was excellent, he noted. Tuuri's wife vividly recalled her days at KSU. Also a 1942 graduate, she remembers her days at Engleman Hall. I used to come out of Engleman - it was new at that time - and there was a swamp with trees. The baby snakes used to come out and sun themseIves, she said. We knew practically everybody. Everybody bought the Chestnut Burr, she recalled. She compared students of her era to present-day collegians. I think the people coming out now are more dedicated and live in a more real world. The job markets back then were not so bad, she said. War was there and the students went and no one questioned it. Maybe it took our generation longer to find our problems, she reflected. I think basically students stay the same. There are those .X . - fix gfxrxrf-4 ' x C I..-. K, qv Ci ,. 'Nrfdf who have concern for other people and there are those who don't see beyond themselves, she said. Perhaps the KSU alumnus travelling farthest to attend the festivities was Len Foglesong of San Diego. A 1949 liberal arts graduate, he is an engineer at General Atomic Company. This is the second one l've been to. l was here last year, he said. Students have changed, he said, comparing students of the 1940's to the students of the 1970's. Things seemed more conservative in our day. Everything's changed. The students are more independent, but this follows through in all walks of life, he said. We had big rallies before all the football games. The spirit was always good. After every game we all ran down on the field, he said. Six of us cooked meals in a basement apartment - Tuuri By Engleman, a swamp, and baby snakes sunbathing Students have changed for the better - They're conforming more. - Pathis Constantine Pathis and his wife Rose walked into the Student Center with their son, Stellios, making Alumni Day a family affair. Ftose Pathis received a masters in 1968 in business education. Things have really changed. When I was there here there were a lot of beatniks. Now I don't notice any. lt's gotten classier. l'd say students have changed for the better. They're conforming more, said the Campell resident. Dr. Charles Kegley, chairman of Allied Health Sciences here, was a 1956 KSU graduate and received his masters here in 1959. Yeah, students have changed. They're much more like they were in the early 1960's, rather than the early 1970's. I think young people today are tuned into parental values, such as alcohol abuse. Alcohol is a parental drug, he said. Students have more of an interest in athletics and are turning spiritually inward more than in the late 1960's, he said. Story by Paul Grant. Photos by Lee Ball.

'Twas a thrill for me to climb the October-chilled stadium steps to the glass-enclosed president's box, which sits atop the press quarters and towers above Dix Stadium. Everyone was there for Homecoming '75, with the Chippewas of Central Michigan pitted against our own Golden Flashes. Everyone. President and Mrs. Olds . . . if I recall correctly, all KSU's vice-presidents . . . the fund-raising Alumni Association . . . the president of the Cleveland Crusaders hockey team . . . the box was packed. The day was brisk with autumn winds. Rain no longer threatened. Across the field, where our boys were beginning to get soundly shellacked by the superior Central Michigan squad, a few thousand KSU students sat in their designated bleachers. The student stands weren't filled. Attendance for the game was recorded at 8,68O. I hung up my jacket, downed a piece of pumpkin pie and proceeded to hobnob with some congenial highbrows. I don't think today's kids have as much fun as when I went to school here, said a past president 119605 of the Alumni Association. Did you ever work on a float? he asked me. I shook my head and shoveled in another fork-load. You can't imagine the good times involved in working together with other people on a Homecoming float, he continued. lt seems kids are just so heavy today. I headed for another piece of pie.

Miss Ohio is studying opera, dislikes New York City and enjoys AM radio. I smiled, wished her luck and resumed my journey to the alluring spread of desserts and fruits. As I debated between an apple or more pie, I struck up a conversation with Dr. Fay Biles, vice president for public affairs and development. Dr. Biles is a nice lady and enjoys explaining her job, her philosophies on life and education and her thoughts about Homecoming. Contributions, she told me. Homecoming is the only time when the directors of the KSU Foundation and Alumni Association Clargely volunteers and nearly all KSU alumnij get together, she said. The purpose of the Alumni Association and the KSU Foundation is friend and fund raising, Dr. Biles said. I sipped coffee and settled down to watch the game. Gadzooks!! The game was over! A forlorn President Olds approached me. Kent had lost the game. The hand-held Harpo Marx-type horn that he'd been honking with glee whenever our boys did something right hung Iimply in his hand. Gosh, he said. I hate to see our students leave before the game is over. President Olds was quite right. Our bleachers were nearly empty at the final gun. Oh well. I guess Homecoming, like the times, has changed somewhat. Story by Steve Luttner Photos by Matt Bulvony 51 What do they do all day? Edward Crosby, director of the Institute for African American Affairs Because IAAA's Uumbaji Hall is a student center, Crosby and his staff usually spend 12 hours a day during the week and several hours on weekends keeping the hall open for student use. Crosby estimates he advises as many as sixteen students per day, Crosby attends one or two meetings per week. He is, in his words, desk-bound , unable to get away from his office because of the problems that arise when tl amy trying to figure out ways to spend the money that the department doesn't have. Crosby teaches in KSU's Black Studies program and frequently does guest lectures in other departments. He is also president of the Consortium of Black Studies Programs in northeastern Ohio. Richard Buttlar, dean of the college of Arts and Sciences Buttlar spends very little time in direct contact with students. Most of his time is occupied with meetings on faculty and university problems, budget discussions, policy making and curriculum planning. Buttlar refers to himself as a referee, a catalyst and a convener whose expertise is in organization rather than in direct application of programs. He works with others, seldom relying totally on his own ideas for program and curriculum development. Buttlar sees at least six faculty members a day and deals with tenure, salary and promotion problems. He usually attends three meetings a day to attempt to piece together money for new programs, and attends three or four Iuncheons, dinners, and receptions per week. Buttlar says he has trouble finding time to prepare for the many speeches he is asked to deliver. The traffic through this office is just too much to allow time for the creative work that is expected of me. The creative stuff just has to wait for evenings and weekends. Herbert Chereck, registrar There is no typical day in Chereck's office. Each day brings a different set of circumstances and problems, Chereck says. Chereck attends only one regularly scheduled meeting: a weekly staff meeting where we set aside one hour to touch bases with each other, work out whatever problems have occurred during the week and discuss potential problems for the upcoming week. Chereck estimates he is in direct contact with students 20 to 25 times daily. He says his main objective is to be available for counseling and assistance as often as possible, so he tries to spend most of his day in or near his office. Problems arise because students who come to me are anxious, frustrated, ready to drop out of school, said Chereck. They wait until they reach the end of the road. If these students would present their problems early enough, we might be able to help them find a solution. Chereck works more than a 40-hour week. He estimates he spends at least two nights a week and nearly every Saturday in his office, handling things which cannot fit into his scheduled working hours. Paul Bud Clark, director of Food Services Clark attempts to plan his day but, more often than not, he is interrupted by student complaints, administrative meetings and the unceasing problems which accompany the job of feeding 17,000 + students three meals a day. Clark begins his day in one of the campus' dining halls. The best way to deal with student and staff complaints is to work out a solution on the scene of the problem, he said. After breakfast, Clark goes to his office in Tri-Towers where he handles complaints, answers correspondence, orders food and supplies, and reads the Daily Kent Stater, which he considers a valuable source of customer feedback. Clark deals with student and staff complaints again in the afternoon, at lunch in yet another cafeteria. Working from the customer's perspective is easiest where the customer is, says Clark. Clark says he is always on call and personally attends special functions catered by the university food services. You put in the extra hours until you can deal with problems within the scheduled working day, he says. Clark usually attends three meetings per week: one with Kent lnterhall Council, one with Sheldon Westman, director of residence halls, and one with his staff, to discuss current programs and problems. Kathleen Schotzinger, assistant director of Advising and Orientation Schotzinger wears two hats. She is assistant director of advising and orientation and director of Project DOVE, a program she originated which encourages older women to return to college. ln her advisory capacity, Schotzinger deals with problems peer advisers have in counseling fellow students, and also helps them refresh techniques. She herself counsels seven or eight students per day. As director of orientation, Schotzinger guides new students through the tedious processes of registering, seeking financial aid and finding housing. During the summer orientation program for incoming freshmen, she spends 12 hours a day helping students unfamiliar with college life adjust to their initial encounter with KSU. Schotzinger also teaches afternoon classes at KSU's Stark County branch and attends at least one class in career planning per quarter, Because part of her job is to help students choose careers, Schotzinger is designing new classes for incoming freshmen and students returning after several years. The classes will help evaluate previous learning and make career selection easier. Glenn Olds, KSU president A typical day for President Olds runs from 6 a.m. until 3 a.m. Olds says his strict schedule of meetings and appointments leaves him little time to deal with unexpected emergencies. A typical day's schedule looks like this: 8:00 Briefing for a presentation to be given later in the evening, 9:00 Work on events for the coming week. 10:30 Appointment with Burr reporter. 11:00 Meeting with a vice-president. 12:00 Lunch with Bill Nash. 1:30 Meeting with Bill Osborn, president of Faculty Senate. 2:00 Meeting with former student. 2:30 Meeting with members of the Faculty Appeals Board. 3:15 Faculty Senate meeting. 4:30 Drive to Cleveland for meeting with chairman of Collective Bargaining Board. Olds explained he normally tries to keep Monday mornings free to handle events for the coming week. KSU president is a seven-day-a-week, 24-hour-a-day job, according to Olds, Everybody who gets in to see me is here because the system has broken down somewhere along the line, he adds. qv x lff in- Yf. , , V - Olds is obligated to attend university functions, evening meetings, and dinners at which he is often the featured speaker Qand for which he must spend hours in preparationj. He also speaks to high school students, encouraging them to attend KSU. Despite his long working hours, Olds takes timeto teach a four-hour philosophy course. lf l get to the point where I can no longer do the job with joy, then l'll go back to teaching, because that's what l really love, he says. Mike Lude, athletic director I am not what I envision an athletic director to be, says Lude, because my time is spent on too much paper work. The 'paper lion' is becoming greater all the time. Lude says his day is structured weeks in advance. His rigid schedule of appointments, meetings and correspondence seldom even approaches completion because we work on a crisis basis, says Lude. Lude and his staff of 40 schedule athletic events Kas far ahead as 19943, make policy, raise funds, do public relations work, hold organizational meetings, coordinate inter- departmental matters and, of course, face budget problems. Although his door technically is not open to people without appointments, Lude says he has never failed to spend time talking with students and he enjoys being of help. He counsels students, mostly athletes, on school-related problems. Lude's schedule includes about 12 meetings per day and frequent luncheon and evening meetings. Richard Bredemeier, dean for Student Group Affairs Bredemeier spends most of his time in meetings. He attends daily meetings with student group representatives and weekly meetings with his staff, the executive secretary of the student body, Student Caucus and Stater reporters. He also serves ex-officio on the Student Affairs Council, and unofficially sits on the Student Life Policy Committee and the Student Publications Policy Committee. Bredemeier explained that much of his unscheduled time is taken up with hiring and maintaining a counseling and office staff, university policy administration, and his position on the Educational Administration faculty. He explained that he leaves direct program delivery to his staff of seven, which also handles accounting, fund-raising drives, and student counseling.

IF x 5 M x Upbringing tells us Halloween is the evening celebration before the feast day of the second resurrection, when the dead walk the earth once again. But the theosophists, notably Dr. A. B.

The remembrance of the soul's need to be attached to a material body in order to become completely liberated. However one views the night, it is more than just a big party. The masks let all sorts of hair come falling down. The different strokes are rampant, and good-natured toleration is the byword.

Ayn- ' Battles, tournaments, feasts and wars. Ladies-in-waiting and knights in shining armor. The medieval days are re-enacted by the Society for Creative Anachronism. We recreate certain historical times as they ideally should be, said Tom Moldvay, a member. We want to make people aware that a history exists behind the human race. For all its events, the members of the group dress in medieval fashion. Each has adopted the character and dress of a person from the Middle Ages. The group gathers at least once a month to stage a medieval battle, tournament or Pensic War. The weapons are not real. The swords are of light metal covered with silver tape, the shields are of light-weight wood or metal, the helmets are made from gasoline cans. 55 The battles are serious matters. All are fought face to face, according to the rules of chivalry. It's against the rules to strike someone on the hands or below the shins. The battle is really a sport in itself. It has a lot of the elements of football. You have a plang you launch it. There's a flurry of activity and then it's all over until the next plan, said Moldvay. The fighting is real enough that if you get hit, it hurts, but not badly, he added. A battle is to the death. The dead person lies prone until a marshal picks him up or the battle is over. You die if you think a blow is hard enough to kill or a sword thrust is strong enough to penetrate a typical medieval war garment, Moldvay explained. A tournament involves more pageantry and ritual than a battle. Twenty to 40 individual matches are held, and the victorious knight wins the Queen of Love and Beauty. The ab tournament is followed by a craft fair, medieval entertainment and a feast with duck, goose, stuffed pig and meat pies. A Pensic War is a more complex event. Two kingdoms maneuver for a full weekend to capture the flag, king and X or prince. To keep the group's standards high, knights are trained for battle from one week to several years, depending on the person's strengths and previous sports involvement. A beginner must complete novice and shire training before qualifying as a knight. The codes of chivalry are strictly enforced. You don't wear steel. You don't lose your temper in battle. All ladies are beautiful. All men are handsome. Everyone commands respect even if you hate a person, said Moldvay. Moldvay explained that a person who disregards the codes or becomes too wild or dangerous in battle may be banished from the group. Q i i l fftzff' s-i ,-4 I J Ah! The Kent Society for Creative Anachronism was formed in January 1975 and is one of six in Ohio. It is part of a network of societies which began as a costume party 10 years ago in Berkeley, California. Nationwide, the society numbers about 4,000. There also are societies in Canada, England and Germany. The group divides the United States into four kingdoms: East, West, Middle fof which Kent is a party and Atenveldt. Kent is in the shire of Gwyntarian, which means white shield. People are lured into the society because of its showiness. said Moldvay. Many people like the fancy parties. The costumes are so authentic that at the first tournament I attended, I went outside several times to reassure myself this was the twentieth century. I was relieved when I saw a traffic light, he said. iv Story by JoAnne Sturiale Photos by Thom Warren 1 They say cut back, we say fight back! The Beyclutioriary Student Brigade CBSBJ began four years ago The Attica Brigade became a national organization and formed the Revolutionary Communist Party, which developed a student arm -the BSB. Since its formation, the party and the BSB have been active in a wide variety of movements which Larry Kieffer, a 17- year-old freshman BSB member, said the Brigade referred to as the hippity-hop. Kieffer said the party felt this hopping around was too confusing. The Brigade is beginning a new phase, with the fight against educational cutbacks of staff and quality as its main theme. To carry out this fight, the BSB has begun a new national organization, the Students for a Decent Education tSDEj. The only goal of the SDE, Kieffer said, is the ending of the cutbacks. He added the BSB will support this one cause until it succeeds or until a re-evaluation of strategy seems necessary. The Brigade sees itself as the backbone of the SDE, according to BSB member Mark Kaprow, an 18-year-old A freshman. This means the BSB will back SDE's positions and push their ideology, but the SDE and the Brigade are not the same organization. The immediate goal of the BSB is to build a student movement as a part of the revolutionary movement, an ally of the working class, said Kaprow. The final goal of the BS'B and the party is a socialist revolution and the establishment of the dictatorship of the proletariat. according to Kaprow. Kaprow is a sociology major who explained his involvement in the BSB: l've always been a radicaI. Kieffer joined the Brigade three years ago when his brother formed a chapter in Cincinnati. The two said there are 12 BSB members at KSU. Six of these were members during 1974-75 and the others are new recruits. For security reasons Cthey asked this reporter if he were a ClA agentb, they would not reveal the names or number of party members in Kent. 157 '.5T!I?'i '51 ax 5 S -L, .t,, f- lz-iz: 1 ' ' f Q F as l 7' i Ei lid T' -'wg . yr 1' i 5 The SDE has attracted about 80 people to its rallies. Kaprow said this figure is misleading because only two people in all those he talked to said they were against the SDE. Fear of police and possible repression accounted for the light turnout, he said. Kaprow assessed the campus' mood towards the Brigade and the SDE as positive. People want to fight but are afraid they can't win, he concluded We tell them we can win.

The big thing for me is that Hatha Yoga helps me deal with the here and now - living for the moment, she said with a smile that seemed to touch. lf you enjoy the present, you're not always looking ahead. It takes away the struggling. l'm more willing to rely on my intuition, to follow my heart rather than my head, not trying to reason it out. The laws are the beautiful part, not an obstacle. i l-I A f Keeping Kosher, for Aaron Handler, does not mean a lot of unnecessary hassles. For him it is the key to a beautiful life. Keeping Kosher means eating only meats and dairy products which have been certified by the Union of Orthodox Rabbis. lt means using two sets of dishes and two towels for every meal. It means eating no dairy products for six hours after eating meat. lt means 12 years in the Hebrew Academy in Cleveland learning the laws. It means going to the Temple in Cleveland to celebrate the Sabbath properly. It means working through red tape to become exempt from the dorm residency requirements for freshmen. And so far, for Aaron Handler, it has meant living alone. Most people don't understand, he said in reference to the law. I go back to Cleveland when I can to celebrate the Sabbath tsundown Friday to sundown Saturdayl. It means you can't use electricity. You can't drive. It gets so involved there are books written on it. You have services once on Friday and three times on Saturday. They are a close time for family and friends. They are beautiful times when you can forget work and school. lt's one day during the week when you feel closer to God. The whole Sabbath is dedicated to Him. lt's the most important time for a Jew, he said. The laws are the beautiful part, not an obstacle. They are what makes the Sabbath. l've found beauty in them. I couldn't see going without them. Until you really get into it, it's impossible to realize what a great thing it is. lt's not a part of your lifeg it is your life. First you have religion, then you work everything else into it. Below, at Hillel with friends, bagels and lox. I ff Aaron entered the Academy in kindergarten and was graduated with a male class of 14. Sexes are separated after the first grade. Coming to Kent required an adjustment for Aaron. It was now his responsibility to Keep Kosher. The family was no longer around to help, and he hasn't been able to find a Kosher roommate. When I first came here I got into what was happening. I was loosing what was religious. Then I talked to a lot of my friends who had been away at college for three years. A lot of them don't worry about anything. They say 'Don't worry. I'm strong,' he said. For the past few weeks I've been trying to get it all back together, what I believe, what I believe about myself. I hope I never try to live that style of life without the law. As long as I'm here I can't see myself getting any better. S.. lt's hard when there's no one else. lt's easier to be what you are when you are with people who understand, he said. lt's difficult to really relate with someone unless you have a somewhat similar background. I'm not a fanatic, I'm a normal guy. I like to do crazy stuff. I like to swim, play tennis and have a social life. But people . . . He drifted off. I fear God. I love God at the same time. My whole life is somehow connected to my religious feelings. I don't dislike anyone else in another religion, as long as they are religious in whatever they believe.

Rituals, then, contain the innermost secrets of the chapters, and cannot be revealed to anyone except members. A pledge period of five weeks to five months is followed by an inspiration week designed to test an initiate's knowledge of what he has learned during his pledge period and to further acquaint him with his would-be fraternity brothers. The chapter secrets are revealed at the pledge's initiation ceremony. He is now a brother for life. Story by Ron Seuflert 1 . him lv fi ' K .

You actually feel it when someone hits your brother. The inner workings of fraternities and sororities are secret. Society doors are closed to the outsider and the Burr encountered many obstacles attempting to open them. Predominantly black fraternities were, like other Greeks, reluctant to tell of their rites and rituals. For example, one Burr photographer, Leon Williams, a former pledge, would not divulge information in any but the most enticing and vague manner. When pressed for more information, Leon would only say: l'd compare pledging to boot camp. The difference between pledging a white frat and a black frat is like the difference between Air Force boot camp and Marine boot camp. Marine boot camp is hell. Other sources were more open as long as they were not identified. They provided additional insights about what happens when a man pledges a black fraternity. One described the pledge period as a mind game. They play with your head, trying to make you feel low, like you're not worth shit. lf you're a weak person and you believe this, you're going to drop out. Only the strong survive, he ' explained. Most who talked indicated pledging involves a tremendously trying physical ordeal. They told of being taken to a rural area and ordered to do calisthenics, followed by races the pledges were told to win or eIse, although no particular punishment awaited those who lost. Others told of having been punched repeatedly all over the body, except in the head and groin. One pledge explained: Once we were stood up against a wall on a cold day. We were told to take our shirts off. Then our big brothers took turns punching us on the chest. They hit us, always in one spot, until we were so tender and bruised all they had to do was touch us and we'd cry. The group was taken to a house where they were forced to drink wine until they got sick-drunk. 72 Pledges are not allowed to partake fully of the fraternity's social life until they have crossed the line, that is, have passed the pledge period during which they are given daily assignments by their older brothers. A man might be detailed to clean a big brother's house or to tune another's car. No one may dispute a big brother. lf a big brother say 'Jump!', you jump, said one pledge. Black fraternities contacted said full-fledged members are voluntarily skin-branded, for instance, with a Greek letter of the fraternity. Branding is not required of any member. But I don't know of anyone who hasn't been branded, one man said. Why the physical ordeal? lt's supposed to create a physical and spiritual bond, a sense of brotherhood, one man explained. lf someone is not entirely together fproper mental attitudej, his ass won't be kicked, but the other pledges will get beat for not getting the first guy together. You reach the point where you actually feel it when someone hits your brother, and your instinctive reaction is to fight back. Fraternity representatives who were initially asked if physical tests occur and if so, their purpose, refused to comment. Some pledges said such tests are practiced by predominately black fraternities but their pledges and members either denied this or would not comment. Although the College Fraternity Secretaries Association has labeled hazing an unproductive, ridiculous and hazardous custom fwhichl has no rightful place in the fraternity system, many pledges who were asked said they believed - hazing is still a prevalent custom. Many pledges drop out because they cannot cope with the physical abuse. It would seem those who cross the line are accepted into the fraternity as having passed a very tough test of manhood indeed.

Why? I needed some security, some support in my life. You can always trust and count on your sisters. No girl here has ever let me down. You develop leadership qualities and friendships. You do what you want to do and know that your friends will stick behind you. You join a sorority for friends away from home, for nil., sisterhood, a new family. There's never a feeling that you're alone. Aspiring Greeks initially attend a pledge ceremony to learn what is asked of them to attain membership and what they can gain from the sorority, explained Fawn Stager of Alpha Xi Delta. Rush week, the party week, follows the pledge ceremony. When it's over pledges are selected and invited into the sorority. The week ends with a party which Stager says is to help convince the chosen that you aren't just one person anymore. You're part of a bod' and you're part of thousands of people nationwide. You attain an image that has to be kept up. Hell week has been replaced with inspiration week. Hazing - playing cruel and practical jokes - is discouraged, said Peggy DeChant of Alpha Phi. ......g-Q. 741 It-ffl' Opposite page, after the new pledges were on line, the atmosphere was relaxed and Paula Eicker did an impersonation of Liza Minnelli.

The pledges are not supposed to feel lower than low, she explained Instead of being chastised and ridiculed, the pledges are required to recite important data such as founders, dates. sorority colors and sisters' names. They must pull pranks and sneak away on a weekend ditch, an excursion to another chapter within the state. They return with a song describing the experience. At required meetings inspired pledges receive more information about the sorority through songs, poems and skits. These encourage the pledges to feel a part of the group. Big Sis, Little Sis is one of the most important practices. Each pledge chooses three active members each would like to have as a Big Sis. A pledge trainer advises which should pair up and, after accepting, the Big Sis spends the next week sending anonymous gifts and cards to the Little Sis. The pairs are revealed only at the end of the mystery week. Deeper, tighter sisterly bonds are formed. Although you love all the sisters, there's this one person who is really special to you, explained Pat Gallagher, president of Alpha Phi. When one of the sisters joyfully announces she has been pinned, lavaliered or engaged, a candlelight ceremony is held. All the lights are turned out and a single candle is lit. It solemnly passes from hand to hand until it reaches the newly betrothed sister, who blows it out. lt's like Barb Ager, president of Sigma Sigma Sigma said: Sorority life isn't for everyone, but for those of us who have pledged, we wouldn't live without it.

Commuter and Off-Campus Student Organization QCOSOJ serves as a mother to the commuter family. One of its goals is enhance the total college experience, primarily for commuters and off-campus students. COSO tries to achieve this by improving physical facilities here, by promoting, developing and expanding social atmosphere and by dealing with commuters' problems with family life and independence. To commuters, these goals and plans sound good, but impossible. Commuters have survived by learning to adapt to whatever situation arises. Some have tried to avoid the daily grind by spending winter quarter in a Wright Hall quad, paying S460 to S515 for the quarter. 80 Nancie Kossove, 22, adviser of the winter-in-residence program, said most of the commuters enjoy their vacation. Quite a few of them said they were glad they were here when the snow came. This year's 22 commuters live on the eighth floor of Wright Hall. At our first floor meeting they wanted beer, said Kossove. They aren't having any major problems but they are upset because there isn't a kitchen on the floor. Most of them have refrigerators, but now it's not like home where they can have hamburger anytime. Story by Scott Carr Above. a cold winter sunrise over the stadium parking lot. Weekend exodus Are we a suitcase college? The pilgrimage begins every Friday. Phone calls are made. Rides are lined up, bus tickets purchased, hitchhiking routes planned. Suitcases, duffel bags and paper sacks are packed with two or three days' worth of essentials. It's called getting out of Kent for the weekend. Week after week, thousands of KSU students suitcase it out of town. With throaty declarations of there's nothing to do in Kent on weekends, the student heads for the familiar surroundings of home or catches a ride to another university for a couple days of partying with long-lost friends or a rendezvous with a sensual lover. The benefits reaped from such excursions depend on the individual. Some go home to escape loneliness and to enjoy the security of a family Qincluding hot meals and free laundry servicej. Others cannot wait to visit the back home girlfriend or boyfriend. On the less frivolous side, some students look forward only to a weekend of hard work at part-time jobs, which help ease the burden of financing an education. Driven by wanderlust, loneliness, sexual needs, lack of cash and a myriad of individual quirks, students pack up and head out. The Friday evening exodus is repeated weekend after weekend. The dorms stand partially deserted, the campus is quieter and KSU's reputation as a suitcase college lives on. Story by Jeffrey Bell Photo by Matt Bulvony ue,-sem:-wn'l'lUW0' ,,. 4. 2 .

By the time you get deeply involved it's too late to get out. The average undergraduate spends four years at college. Time is free, of course - probably because no one has found an economic way to put meters on clocks - but once it's gone, one can't go to the corner drugstore and get a refill. A KSU undergraduate will pay a minimum of 310,000 for four years' worth of tuition, fees, books, room and board. And every time the Board of Trustees raises tuition 315, this amounts to S180 over a four-year period. An undergraduate also must consider potential income that will be lost while attending college. Assuming a full-time job might pay 58,000 per year, 332,000 is lost and the cost of an education becomes well over 340,000 The question remains: Is college worth all this time and expense? I am a veteran attending KSU on the G.I. Bill. Looking back on my military career - I was a hospital corpsman with the Navy and Marines - I see striking similarities between college and military life. The things that most upset me about military life were the incompetence of the clowns running the show and the . endless red tape. For four years I fought regulations, more regulations, regulations governing regulations. After four long years of organized confusion I decided to go to college. Ah, Academe! To hobnob with intelligentsia. To engage in scholarly discourse with rational minds. To discover the wonders of the universe - and to graduate and earn enough to keep off welfare, since the plumbers already had the best jobs. And what did I find upon my arrival at these ivy-covered for is it mildew-covered'?J halls? Lines. More lines. Lines to stand 88 in in order to stand in other lines. For four years I have fought with lines. Like the service KSU has a chain of command. The unqualified order the unwilling to do the unnecessary. The left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing, but what's worse is that quite often both hands are kept in pockets, not doing much of anything! And what has all this to do with the value of a college education? Just this. What happens here happens out there on a much larger scale. The arguments we make, the discussions we hold, the incompetence we see, the frustrations we suffer and the things we learn here are merely small reflections of what is happening out in the real world. What we make of our college experiences has a great deal to do with what we make of our lives. We see hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in intercollegiate athletics at the same time we see a Snyder Plan for faculty cutbacks. Yet, while the stadium can't be filled for a football game, or the gym for basketball, students are being closed out of classes. We see Rockwell Hall being remodeled at the same time Franklin Hall sits on the verge of being condemned. We see a tall, modern library half filled with books. And, we also see students - people. Some who care and some who don't. Some who protest without offering any alternatives. Some who offer alternatives, but who cannot be heard because of all the shouting. Life in microcosm. For me, KSU has been a rewarding, albeit painful, experience. But, what worries me is that now l've got to go through it all over again out there, and this time - it's for keeps. , Story by Arthur Stafford Photos by Matt Bulvony bu- W N.

This theory has been the basis of many KSU internship programs in which students received credit for professional experience, usually off campus for a quarter, in the student's major field, Rob Garrett and Jim Ramey, aerospace management seniors, worked seven and four months respectively as junior industrial engineers with the Grumman American Aviation Corp. in Cleveland, For starters Rob was assigned to redesign the company's organizational chart, then both scheduled production and worked in departmental budgeting, manpower and capital equipment transfer to another Grumman plant. The job was a challenge, said Ftob. At first we were just college kids to the foremen. Establishing repertoire took time, patience and a few beers, he said. What I learned in three years at Kent, l could apply at Grumman, said Jim. When I finished there I could better apply my classwork here. It was a reciprocal relationship. Rob added, We put theory into practice and we learned how to get along with people. lt's hard to motivate more technology students to have internships because only two to 12 hours credit can be given for such work. The weeks away from campus prolong a college career and cut into the student's pocketbook, explained Dr. Pedar Otterson, assistant director of the school of technology. Thus the problem is not finding cooperative industries, but cooperative students. Student interns are more valuable to the industry than those who haven't participated, he said. Many times a company will hire the person into a junior management position. Training is cheaper and the employe may move up the salary scale faster, said Otterson. In addition, he said the student can determine through an internship if the occupation is really satisfying.

Steve dresses Gene. He bathes Gene. He covers him before sleeping and makes sure he's out of bed in time for his first class. But most important, Steve is Gene's closest friend and employe, and Steve is constantly reminded of that dual relationship. Steve Jones began taking care of Gene Rodgers one year ago through the Handicapped Student Services. Steve is a handi-aide. Gene is a quadraplegic, paralyzed from the neck down after a fall from a cliff four years ago. After his accident, Gene had the choice of life in a nursing home or an education in an area recommended by the government. Gene chose college and the government chose chemistry. After two years at Cuyahoga Community College, Gene transferred to Kent and has lived in Stopher Hall, where he and Steve met. The pair started working together in winter 1975. The relationship started as a contractual agreement that required R931 N 45 o- i i .1 Steve to do anything for Gene that he could not do himself. This ranged from answering phones to Gene's sanitary and personal needs. Working together closely for a year has caused the friendship to grow into two levels, said Steve. Gene is a very good friend, almost to the point at which l love him. But l'm constantly reminded, both by myself and Gene, that l'm being paid for what I do, he said. lt's a paradox I haven't worked out, said Steve. Gene has become such a part of my life that I'd help him even without the payment. Steve had studied no medical courses before taking the job. Learning to take care of Gene was not technically difficult, said Steve. It was a matter of Gene explaining and Steve making mistakes before catching on. lt took me four years to learn to be a cripple, said Gene, But it took two weeks for Steve to learn the job. The usual handi-aide becomes discouraged and quits after the first quarter, said Gene. He has had six in two years at Kent. Fully aware of the possible difficulties, Steve said: I took the job partly because ofthe money and partly because I was starving for a deep personal relationship. I was a freshman trying to get adjusted to the university and I really needed to talk with someone on an intellectual leveI. The two discussed their beliefs in the metaphysical life. We sometimes think alike and other times totally different, said Gene. Sometimes we're almost like a unit, a cloud. We come together for a period of time, then pull apart and go our ways. Gene is as independent as possible. He takes the thanks, but no thanks attitude when people try to be overly helpful. By wearing a cuff and bending a fork, Gene can feed himself. Steve respects Gene's independence. When Gene shifts his electric wheel chair in reverse to get situated in a room, Steve does not jump up and help. It took time to get adjusted to each other's habits, like drying out ears after a shower, said Steve. I've gotten to the point where I pick out the sound of his - rt' ' wheel chair over all the other wheel chairs in Stopher HaIl, Steve said. Our close friendship has really expanded my mind, said Steve. Many times we talk about changes that have been imperative to our lives. By knowing Gene, said Steve, I've grown to know myself better. I've grown through the friends he's introduced me to and I've formed a better idea of how it is to be handicapped. I have a basic belief that man is here to benefit man and I'm only doing a small part by helping Gene. I'm concerned that I'm not doing enough, Steve said. Gene is very negative towards the world. I'm trying to change that, he said. Steve predicted Gene's opinion of his influence on Steve. I'd have to say I've given Steve financial security, Gene said.

The campus microcosm can limit the variety of reporting for journalism and telecommunications majors, but it also can provide a nest from which to fly. As part of extended classwork, two news students were able to bring a Washington, D.C. rally, the Kentucky Derby, Freedom Train and the Kent State civil suit to students via the campus radio and television stations. The pair went to Washington, D.C. by bus with a Cleveland labor union local to cover the April 26 Jobs Now labor rally. Leaving Friday afternoon, they arrived Saturday to watch the organized rally disintegrate into protest before the eyes of Sen. Hubert Humphrey, D-Minn., Rep.

Q if Reversing roles H698 l'lOl 3 tf8dltIOl'lal FIUFSG. During a stint in the U.S. Army Ken Smolinski concluded that much of what people do during their lives seemed irrelevant. In order to put some relevance into his own life, he decided to become a nurse. Smolinski explained that by becoming a nurse he could help other people while getting satisfaction from a profession that requires study and skill. Smolinski also plans to use his training to lobby legislation that will change current medical programs and initiate new ones. Smolinski, a junior, said when he made his career choice the most common reaction among family and friends was, Why not become a doctor? , or, A nurse? Why Ken, you've never been effeminate! Smolinski's stock answer was land isj that he is not entering the medical profession because of the money he could make, but for the satisfaction he will get from being able to help others when they most need it. ' When asked if there are prejudices against male nurses, Smolinski explained that so far most of the discrepancies have been to his advantage. Within the school of nursing he feels that many times he gets better treatment than the women students because professionals are happy to see the sexual barriers broken down and so welcome him into the feminine career of nursing. The prejudices will be most obvious after graduation when he starts to look for a job in a hospital, said Smolinski. Male nurses traditionally are put on duty in the operating room or are encouraged to become anesthesiologists, he said. These areas allow the nurse to be more masculine because there is less intimate contact with the patient, Smolinski said. As a professional I must be person-oriented, I must be loving and giving to the people for whom I am caring. As a male nurse in an operating room, my job would be like any other 8-to-5 job - I would leave everything behind me when l went home. For this reason more than any other he said he would like to work on the floor and personally attend to patients' needs, but is not sure he will get the opportunity. Smolinski said the reason more men do not pursue a career in nursing it that, obviously, it is stereotyped as a woman's roIe. 100 But he feels there are definite advantages to being one of the few males among many females. Perhaps the greatest advantage is that because of women's socialization, they have trouble being assertive and questioning authority. Smolinski said because of this he naturally assumes leadership in the classroom and at the hospitaI. Smolinski said patients' reactions to him vary with age and the patient's sex. Older women, who wouldn't react to a male doctor's presence at all, are very reluctant to be assisted by a male nurse, and are somewhat embarrassed. Men, after the initial disappointment of not seeing the 'pretty nurse,' tend to think l'm queer. With the men, I just talk about the latest ball games - that kind of thing - and they eventually come around with jokes about how pretty the nurses on the floor are getting.Younger patients,of either sex, just think it's cute. I'ffTf:f'.'S 'ffl I , x N. x,,.,w rf Q As a coach she expects people to look at her work, not her sex. Nancy Battista sees no barriers to her pursuit of a career in coaching and athletic training. A woman can do the same job as a man -there are no sexual barriers. lf a person can do the job and do it well, he or she will get the job. I expect people to look at my work, not my sex, she explains. Battista has played sports since junior high school and has taught tennis professionally for four years. Now a junior, she is majoring in physical education with a concentration in coaching, and will graduate with a B.S. in physical education. She will be qualified to coach, but says she will return for a masters in athletic training. Battista explained that the field of athletic training is wide I I open to men and women because many high schools are '- ' beginning to hire trainers, Q P i .'f The opportunities are there and I am bound and determined 11 to get a job, she said. Battista said she would prefer coaching and training men v because their facilities are much more extensive than those provided for women's sports. The job is easier and the training more effective when 2. you're working with good equipment. For example, in the --' women's training room at KSU we have just a few benches ' .f and some tape, while in the men's training room they have Q whirlpools and ultrasons Cheat lampsJ, said Battista. , - The reaction of her parents to her career choice has been one of total support said Battista. They told me whatever career I wanted to pursue was fine with them but I have to accept the responsibility for the outcome. lf a man and a woman are of equal ability, the man always will get the job. A woman simply has to play better than a man. Chris Dolce, a graduate student in the school of music, is pursuing a career in full-time, professional, free-lance trumpet playing, covering the gamut from jazz to classical. How did Dolce become interested in the trumpet? She said her start was nothing exceptional. The music teacher asked her fourth grade class what instrument each would like to play and her first choice was drums, which her mother vetoed. Her second choice was trumpet. After music classes at school, Dolce began private lessons and now, 17 years later, has a seat with the KSU Faculty Brass Quintet, the Lab Band, has soloed with the Medina Orchestra, plays with dance bands whenever she can, teaches KSU music students and gives private lessons in her Lakewood home. Barriers for a female trumpet player exist, but Dolce explained: In the classical area women traditionally have been accepted. lf you play well, you are given a chance. In jazz l find a little more resistance. They're not so ready to accept a i Q ' woman. One thing that is true and very relevant is that if a man and a woman are of equal ability, the man always will get the job. A woman simply has to play better than a man. Dolce said she is going to freelance because she does not want to lock herself into any one style. I enjoy all types of music and I think a musician in these times must be able to perform all types of music to survive. For example, how many times does somebody want a baroque trumpet soloist and how many times does somebody call up and say, 'Hey, I need a trumpet to play this . ,,,,, gig . Because Dolce only has been studying jazz for two years, she does not feel her style is polished enough to be individual. But one of her desires is to get a position playing the show circuit. In order to do that she makes herself available for fill-ins and hopes to publicize her name and talents. I enjoy my femininity, l'm not playing trumpet because of a 'women's lib' type thing. As a matter of fact, my views on women's lib are quite conservative. But I do believe in equality in a job situation. I think it's very important.

Gray has been provoking people for the past eight years by posing as a white bigot. In fact, he is neither a bigot nor white, nor is his real name John Gray - he merely uses it to strengthen his presentation, Sociologists call people like Gray marginal that is, they are able to pass as a member of another race. Gray is impossible to identify as a black, even though his parents, grandparents, wife and children are all black. Growing up in the 1940's was especially tough for Gray. Because of his fair skin and racial heritage, he felt comfortable with neither his white nor black classmates. He experienced extreme prejudice from both sides. Gray said he did not become bitter because he had a chance to see the attitudes of both races from a personal viewpoint. I was also able to see both sides of individuals - the way someone would treat a black person as opposed to the way he would treat a white person, said Gray. Gray feels experience is the greatest educator. Following the urgings of Dr. Milton E.

The result is the unique Look at John Gray presentation. Gray is announced as a former member of the Ku Klux Klan who has been invited to speak. He begins by attacking black people as inferior and then insults Jews, Orientals and women. At this point, the typical audience is up in arms, taunting and jeering him. Then Gray springs his surprise. He reveals his true race to the listeners and tries to stimulate their thinking about prejudice. I try to bring the audience through three stages of learning: feeling, experience and intellectualization. I usually get very little immediate feedback, he said. Most of my audience is in a state of shock. From his office at KSU's Center for Human Relations, Gray talked about his hopes and theories about his presentation. The object is to facilitate a readiness to receive new thoughts about racial stereotyping. In other words, I use my physical appearance to jolt you into thinking about race. I hope the program shows people how ridiculous all if prejudices are, whether regarding color, sex, religion or whatever. Gray sees limited progress in overcoming prejudice. I do see the attitude of students changing, he said. They seem to be challenging more of the traditional stereotypes. But he said real progress would occur when people in power positions represent the entire mosaic of American cultures. Gray's lectures are not billed in advance because he feels publicity would ruin his effect. He said it is sometimes difficult to convince groups to allow him to speak because he is relatively unknown. Gray has no definite plans. He has been keeping a hectic schedule, speaking across the country and at military bases around the world. Physically it's impossible for me to keep this up much Ionger, he said. He will, however, keep up his activities in some form. You know, a lot of people don't believe me, he reflects. They ask me to prove l'm black. I always decline. I know who I am.

At the same time, the instructors gain an insight into the management and operation of an educational program. They are required to maintain perfect class attendance, prepare lesson plans for classes based on material covered the previous week, take weekly quizzes, participate in a crafts- recreation program, prepare projects and work on various organizational committees. Gary Haynes, a junior pre-law student and instructor, described a typical Saturday with the school.

We're going to try to bridge that gap between Skeels and Windham and then grow. She added she hoped the advisory committee can promote more community involvement in the program. Jackson feels the program is worthwhile because pupils keep coming back. Most of them return because it's a novelty and something to do on Saturday, said Linda Jones, an instructor and senior journalism major. lt's not rigidly structured like a public school and in my classes, the students help one another.

Robert Treichler, professor of psychology, is aware of his reputation as a lenient grader. Treichler said he feels a screening process already has occurred by the time students reach his upper division psychology courses. He allows class performance to determine grade percentages, based on the natural cut-off point in score distribution. I try to look for natural gaps in distribution of scores rather than make an arbitrary cut-off point where a student may be a point or two from a higher letter grade, he said. He also compares class performance to that during previous quarters, avoiding a preconceived grading schedule based upon strict percentages. Treichler feels his effectiveness in presenting classroom i x ll, 112 material and the usefulness of a new textbook are reflected by quarterly fluctuations in grades. One of his student noted the class was not overburdened with work. I think he's a good teacher in that he concentrates on thoroughly covering a few topics rather than minimally covering many topics, he said. His tests were on the notes, not on the outside reading which was just for reference. He took the classes slow and was receptive to questions, the student said. The student said Treichler's tests were somewhat difficult. They required a lot of synthesis and extrapolation. Below: Dr. F. Robert Treichler ,- I like to be thought of as a tough grader, because the university demands the transcendence of past efforts, said Dr. Lewis Fried, an assistant professor in the English department. Fried considers his teaching successful if students leave his courses with an approach to literature and can take the social background of a novel more seriously. He requires students in his upper division literature courses to read as many as fifteen novels per quarter. Fried does not feel this is excessive because novels are not written in textbook style. His students have varied reactions to his book list. The graduate students are pleased they've discovered the way to read for instance, the 20th century novel. I think after the initial shock, most of them discover that the list really isn't that difficult, he said. Fried has encountered problems because of his high classroom standards. When he was first eligible for tenure it was intimated tenure might be denied because of the amount of reading he required and the resulting high drop rate from his classes. I took the information under advisement. I did cut some. I took two or three books off the reading list. It was suggested the students just couldn't read that many books and that it was counter-productive, he recalled. I didn't want to lose my job. If you don't get tenure, it's euphemistic for saying, 'you're fired', he said. Many professors use evaluation sheets at the end of each quarter. Fried feels they are fairly useless. For one thing, the students already know through the grapevine who's good and who's bad. I think a professor can be served best, if an evaluation is necessary, by a peer evaluation. Fried said his educational background has played a major role in formulating his present teaching policies. I think every teacher, in a sense, is emulative. He absorbs the values of previous schooling, he said. Fried was graduated by Queens College of New York, where he also received his M.A. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Massachusetts.

As far as I know, there are only a few others doing this work in physics departments in this country, said Susan Hale, research assistant of professor Dr. Wilbur Franklin. Duke, New Mexico and Arizona are the only other ones l know of carrying out this work in physics departments, she said. The physics department here has studied clairvoyancy and premonition, both under the area of parapsychology, the study of strange phenomena, both human and nonhuman. Psychic researchers here last year explored interaction of faith healers with water to see if such religious persons could change the structure of water. This was done because the human body is 98 per cent water and the water's molecular structure was studied for changes. Holy water, long a Catholic sacramental, also was studied. Were still analyzing these results. An infra-red spectroscope is being used to analyze the water structure, Hale said. 114 VS 1 1 ' Q D ,gs Xt Av f 'ku Q51 . We had a woman, supposedly a local medium, try to pick a marble hidden in a sealed can among nine other cans which had steel balls in them. She predicted three time in a row where the marble was, Hale said. lt's very hard to come up with conclusive results. There is much testing and retesting involved to prove findings aren't just quirks. We try to examine all the probabilities, which is difficult. There are so many variables. We have to check, for instance, a person's relationship with another person in an experiment especially if they're related or friends, she said. Another research assistant of Franklin's, Elan Moritz, agreed with Hale. We have to do extensive research, otherwise all groups would shoot holes in our findings. Moritz warns against attaching too much importance to the word phenomenon. Some things can be explained only in terms of physical actions, forces, masses, elements and tangible objects. Phenomenon means 'not occurring very often.'

This page, left, a teIefIasher takes polaroid snapshots of students in the back of the classroom - one talks and one sits at the teleflasher and tries to communicate mentally with those whose images flash on the screen, Fiight, the man with a unique use for his retinoscope, Dr. Frederick Davidson. who has never seen a sunset perceives a phenomenon when he sees it for the first time, he said. Phenomenon means having a low probability of occurrence in nature. The question is, can we change the probability of occurrence through interaction? Psychic research is still exploring this, Moritz said. Psychic research grants are scarce. One reason is the suspicion between physics and psychology establishments. Physics people don't regard psychology as a hard science, and are wary of natural scientists investigating humans. The psychology foundations also look unfavorably on their people who deal with natural science, he said. Psychic research also investigates various forms of matter interaction, from human relationships with matter to matter relationships with matter, Moritz said. For instance, it's why beer is stored in barrels rather than rectangles, which would be more economical, he chuckled. lt was found beer tasted worse in rectangles. Linking mind and body . . . A man with a unique use for his retinoscope, a common device used by physicians to examine eyes, is Dr. Frederick Davidson, assistant professor of psychology. He does not look upon his retinoscope research as true psychic research. People interested in psychic research think I have some special power, he said, shining his retinoscope, which looks like a strange flashlight, into my eyes. I am not really doing the same thing they are, he said in his cramped Kent Hall office. When you connect physiological activities with human activities, it is sometimes called psychic research. Also, they're looking for something to fill gaps in their knowledge, which is understandabIe, he said. Davidson said he discovered the retina changes hue, from white to pink to bright red. Red indicates a strong emotional change. By noting changes while asking a series of questions, then recording and cross checking information, it is possible to detect if somebody is Iying, he explained. You know, he said while leaning back in his chair, back in 1941, one of my professors at Temple University said the next scientific breakthrough will come when someone can tie physiological functions with mental functions. He said matter-of-factly, I think I've done it. Stories by Paul Grant Photos by Dan Young 115 Professing the future Will colleges turn into vocational schools? Dr. Sandra J. Hornick, assistant professor, elementary education My answer would be a qualified yes, although vocational would not be used in the common definition of the term. There are still many pressures upon universities to provide each student with the educational program that will lead to a job. Many universities are revamping old programs, developing new programs to meet demands in new occupational areas and developing better career guidance programs. To this extent, colleges are rapidly becoming more vocationally oriented if not vocational schools per se. The case in point at KSU might be the slogan thirty-two ways to learn a living. Dr. Richard D. Hawthorne, associate professor, elementary education Colleges are already viewed by students and parents as having as their central purpose the preparation of persons for a given range of vocational opportunities. This does not mean the liberating function of education is lost. It is not an either! or proposition. Vocational preparation is premised on basic life skills. lt is not done in a vacuum with disregard for nontask learnings. In a work-oriented society it is difficult to imagine support for colleges that do not provide access to the world of work. Dr. Naomi Simms, associate professor, elementary education Ever since Plato's Academy the major purpose of higher education has been vocational, ie. to prepare a person for satisfactory living. The changes in higher education have not been so much in its purpose but in the academic structure of the institutions. The most recent structural change has been the introduction of the innovative field-based programs offered by several of the colleges, for example, nursing and education. Such programs have been criticized as promoting vocational training rather than vocational education. In reality, they promote professionalism. Wit What effect will collective bargaining have Dr. John A. Fridy, acting chairperson, Department of Mathematics The effect of collective bargaining will not be felt immediately in the undergraduate classrooms. Although some top personnel will leave, the system will coast on its current momentum for a year or two. As time passes, it will become more difficult to get faculty members to undertake the extra student services. These duties include advising, directing individual study projects, writing letters of recommendation and teaching classes for ill colleagues. Such things will be negotiated in a master contract, and even after agreement is reached, the student-faculty relationship can never be the same as it is now. l hope and believe that the experiment of collective bargaining will be abandoned within a few years. Dr. Thomas M. Davis, English professor The educational process will be adversely affected. lf the union achieves the support of a substantial majority of the faculty, then I suspect it wil become a major part of our future life. The role of the Faculty Senate will be severely limited, the flexibility which the faculty now has will be subsumed by union rigidity and students will pay - by being further excluded from any significant role in the way the university is run, by higher tuition and by the university's difficulties in attracting first-rate teachers and scholars. Dr. Richard S. Varga mathematics professor The faculty is split on the question of bargaining. ln any future bargaining sessions, UFPA will at best represent one-half the faculty, and from this weak position I see no effective change for education at KSU for the short term. For the long term, if one postulates that UFPA will represent a greater portion of the faculty, l feel the impact would be felt in terms of raising faculty salaries at the expense of cutting back on quality programs. In this way, education would suffer. But, my guess is that the postulate is not valid. 117 I - , I ' d H WE' 2:'c ZECZWE EQEWZE ' H, - 1-H H 2 1 '31 - , C 'Z 222 2'2 f.'C'EEEC' 2' 'E 1.32-E Eff: ES E .2' Z' 2 2 ' 2'2' .2 , 22'22'.2' .2 LC ' CE 2222 2 : EQ SETS' 22 '21 '2'2222 2 E212 222 z2'2' 2' 2' -E'E ' 2 22 2i2'-f-'2 'Lf'g 22 - . -'2'2 '2 2'2 22' 1. 22 '2': 2'2', 22 CE 2: ' 2'2 2' T'2 S..Z'ECf- ' -2 2f.222 2'2g22'2' 2 '2 '2 2'2 222 'Q - 2'2 2 ' '2'2 EQ'EE E - f'2 Q'E'J-E 222' '2 z2f2' 2f 2 2',-2'2 Z E'EEE Z2 2' 22'22 2 CT?.'ES T'2t 22 'e 22 '2 3 32 3 232: 2' ':- 3' jE'E.' 2'-2 59' 'Q 5-3SfE'CES E21 S'O.

Dr. Dorothy M. Zakrajsek, chairperson, Department of Women's Physical Education No. I don't believe professional women's sports will ever attain the commercial magnitude or popularity characteristic of men's sports. Admittedly, women have achieved a relatively comparable professional status in tennis and golf. However, I do not foresee other sports as capable of capturing a significant share of the spectator's interest and enthusiasm. There is no doubt that women's sports will achieve greater visibility through increased support, recognition and interest which in turn will result in more organized sport programs at every level. Judith K. Devine, assistant professor, women's physical education I personally do not see the same future for professional women's sports as has been evidenced in professional men's sports. The public seems to have reached a saturation point in professional team sports, as evidenced by the recent collapse of the World Football League. The successful, professional woman athlete in the individual sport will be the exception, not the rule. ln any class competition, the public wants to see the best, and the physiological and mechanical deficiencies inherent in the female will continue to relegate her to a second-class competitor. Dr. Michael C. Malmisur, associate professor, men's physical education Men's sports have certainly been successful in addressing themselves to indirect consumers. Sportwatching is certainly an indication of popularity, and our addiction will in all probability extend to the women's arena. Women can point with pride to recent accomplishments, and ultimately will hurdle their second-sex status. This will be affirmed by growing numbers of spectators and an increase in material rewards to the participant. 120 91. 'EW .

Ftinier, geography professor The effect on the United States' lifestyle will be mainly higher costs of transportation, heating fuel and heating for all types of manufacturing. The most important effect will be a slowdown of the rates of economic growth. The major effect on the university lifestyle will be a re-ordering of priorities with respect to the necessity of money needed for building maintenance and heating and electric costs. Some of these costs could be offset by a change to a semester system with a longer winter season break. Air conditioning, except for specialized laboratories and computer program facilities, should not be utilized if alternate ventilation facilities are available. Better-located parking decks and commuter facilities expedite access to classes and save on transportation costs. Dr. Herbert L. Zobel, associate professor, geography Persons can use less electricity, fuel for vehicles, heat for homes, and reduce nonessential uses of energy. Many appliances are unnecessary. Clothing can be selected to conform to natural climate rather than air-conditioning or heat. Housing can be constructed to reduce heating and cooling costs significantly. We must strive to find alternatives to fossil fuels and even nuclear energy, and use our remaining energy supplies wisely until the sun can be utilized more directly. At the university, lights in halls could be reduced and those unused in classrooms turned off when the last person exits. Each person must conserve energy if lifestyles are not to change radically in a negative direction. Dr. Surinder M. Bhardwaj, chairperson, Department of Geography In an automobile-oriented society, depending on the rise in the cost of petroleum products such as gasoline, individuals at the lower end of the economic scale will be much more adversely affected because their cost to reach the place of work from the residence will mount sharply. It may lead to an increase in carpools, change in residence and increased emphasis on mass transit. Students might gravitate toward more easily accessible institutions. Shutting off heat except for essential areas at the university during the holidays may save some money, but it will also adversely affect professors who normally find holidays the time for class preparations and for catching up on research and reading. 121 Making it spending it I am troubled that people believe I am preoccupied with money. 5.

C X 5 X This page, above, Glenn Olds' presidential lifestyle includes periodic trips to the statehouse in Columbus to lobby university interestsg below, on board a university-owned plane to Columbus. Opposite page. left, Olds' day is filled with meetings, right, Olds practices in the martial arts, a discipline far-removed from his boyhood boxing career 122 As a youngster, Glenn Olds helped support his poverty- stricken family by boxing in curtain-raisers on the west coast Today, at age 55, Olds uses much of his 351,500 salary as KSU president to help support his mother, send his two children to college and help people in need. Olds was raised on a farm in Sherwin, Ore., during the Depression. His father worked odd jobs for S1 a day, and Glenn and his brothers also were expected to work. The elder Olds was an expert prizefighter, and taught his sons to box at an early age. Olds remembers being given a pair of boxing gloves at the age of 6. Olds would box his brother in curtain-ralsers, and at the end of four rounds would wrestle him for pennies which the crowd would throw. Young Glenn worked a variety of jobs, ranging from woodcutter to berry picker. He worked during high school on a dairy near the farmhouse, milking and caring for some 23 cows each day. As president of KSU, Olds no longer has to wrestle for money. His 351,500 is complemented by a car donated by a local Oldsmobile dealer and a home provided by the university. ironically, as a youngster, Olds never intended to go to college. We had no contact whatsoever with anyone with means, he recalled. My father's theory was that colleges just taught you how to get something for nothing. If you didn't earn your living by the sweat of your brow, somehow you were cheating. That point was very deep with me, so much that to my knowledge, I have never negotiated for salaries in my Iife. Olds changed his mind about college after being offered a scholarship to Willamette University. Scholarships, friends and a job as a dish washer helped Olds to earn his doctorate in philosophy from Yale in 1948. Olds has not raised his two children with their grandfather's philosophy about college. A hefty amount of Olds' salary fmore than S1 0,0003 is used to help his son and daughter through college. Linda, 29, is pursuing a doctorate in clinical psychology at the University of Cincinnati. Richard, 25, is in his fourth year of medical school at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. We have tried to encourage the kids, Olds said. l'm just grateful they could have the experience. If their attitude was 'My old man owes me this' it would by different. But they're very humble kids, and they're gratified. Olds' wife, Eva, is also pursuing a doctorate in theatre and speech at KSU. Olds said many persons at the university do not appreciate the services of two persons for one salary. Eva works full time for the university and she doesn't even get a 'thank you, ' he said. His wife is charged tuition for the courses in which she is enrolled. Money is to be judged by what you do with it, Olds said. I have always had the feeling that you ought to make the most of what you have for others. Nothing thrills me more than .,,.. - ,1 4 -0.4,-I making that investment. That's what life is all about. Occasionally he gets burned. Last year he loaned a woman S5,ooo. She left town, leaving a long string of debts behind. But Olds prides himself on giving much of his salary to others. He still supports his mother, 76, who lives in Oregon. He also lends money to friends and family members in need. I was literally saved by people who believed in me, Olds said, so that is what l've tried to do with my life. Finding people, betting on people, supporting people. Unlike many persons with high salaries, Olds does not list his contributions to individuals on his income tax return. That makes me an old-fashioned conservative in regard to those matters, but I believe no service comes free. I don't like the distribution of that tax dollar by Uncle Sam, but I do not protest trying to give more to provide the essential services that are required. Olds said he is sometimes troubled by persons who complain about his high salary. I believe that on a comparable basis l'm not overpaid, compared to other universities of this size, he said. I have turned down jobs that pay double this. I am troubled that people believe I am preoccupied with money, but I judge it by what I do with it. I couIdn't justify it if it wasn't multiplying my effectiveness to serve. I believe that Mrs. Olds and I are the kind of people that would be happy if we didn't have to have a concern for money at all.

Cathy Murphy, a member of Chi Omega sorority, receives her college funds from four different sources. Cathy's parents pay S360 per quarter for her room and board at the sorority house, where she lives with 18 other girls. Cathy is a junior business major. Her parents also pay her tuition fees. Cathy works five days a week in the sorority kitchen for 57.50 per week. She also makes S50 at the beginning of each quarter by working three days at drop and add. The remainder of Cathy's funds comes from a cashier job. She works during the summer and at Christmas for S115 per week. It totaled S1200 last summer. Cathy says she decides how much of her summer earnings she will need for each quarter and puts that amount in her savings account.

She also spends about S8 per week at parties and regular visits to the Krazy Horse Lounge, and about S30 per month on clothes, especially shirts and tops. Cathy says money isn't her biggest worry.

Sophomore John Flank lives in a super-single in Koonce Hall. He is an architecture student and his college funds come from his parents. Besides his S380 per quarter room fee, John also receives about S40 per week for food, bars and materials for his architecture projects, on which he spends about S70 per quarter. John buys his food and prepares his own meals. I buy a lot of hamburger, chicken, salads and ham. I love to cook and to do it all from scratch. Usually I make a big batch of something and eat it for a week, he said. John says his favorite restaurants, however, are Burger Chef, and when he is in an expensive mood, Arby's. He usually eats out five or six times a week. John earns S15 a night working occasionally at the Krazy Horse Lounge. During the summer he works in landscaping, earning about S2,500. WWW With that money and a loan from his parents he bought a 33,500 Audi, a four-door sedan. John pays S60 per quarter membership dues to Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, but says he makes up the cost in fringes, especially beer. During the winter he spends his money at Peak 'N' Peek, and during the summer he water-skies, swims, goes scuba diving and plays golf. I hate to sit on my butt, he said. I don't buy much clothing, he said. I don't like the idea of going shopping. I usually wait until the clothes fall off me and then go buy a bunch of shirts and pants.

Larry and Caribou live in a semi-rundown yet cozy white house on South Willow Street. The green trim around the windows is in need of a touch-up. It costs Larry S70 per quarter to live there. lt's not quite the Ritz, said Larry, but he likes to call it home. ln that two-story house, Larry lives with six other guys who share the expense of purchasing food and split the rent and utility bills. When schedules permit, the housemates eat together. lt's cheaper that way, Larry said. The kitchen in Larry's house is distinctly quaint. An open, rickety, wooden shelf, which holds almost every kind of canned food imaginable, dominates one wall. Opposite the shelf sit two venerable refrigerators that appear to date to the Depression. A pitcher of luke-warm cherry Kool-aid rests on a tired-looking kitchen table. A couple of sugar-streaked glasses flank the pitcher. Larry drives a 1967 Chevy. He has owned a car since he was a senior in high school. All have been priced in the S125-S200 range, he said, and he does his own repairs. Larry's dress is anything but extravagant. He said he owns six work shirts, three pairs of jeans and a pair of tennis shoes. To maintain this glamorous lifestyle during the past two and one-half years, Larry has had to struggle. Until his father paid his tuition fall quarter, Larry had paid his own way through two years at KSU. Summer jobs, part-time work and food stamps enabled him to maintain his independence. My old man hasn't been able to help me much because he's got eight kids and just doesn't have the money, Larry explained. I don't regret that l've had to pay my way. You know, my old man bred independence in all of us since we were old enough to push a lawn mower. I wouldn't want things given to me. 1.26 I saved S2,30O through my life to pay for my first year of schooI, he added, a touch of pride in his voice. After his freshman year, Larry lived with his parents in Euclid during the summer and made real good money working in a factory. When he returned to KSU in fall 1974, he worked part time at a gas station in Streetsboro. He worked 18-20 hours weekly from October through May. Last summer when Larry returned to Euclid to look for work again, he found only a low-paying job at the same gas station at which he worked when he was in high school. I couldn't find work anywhere else -the economic situation, I guess. The job really sucked. I worked 51 hours a week and only took home about S97 a week. Larry receives S48 a month in food stamps. I get them ffood stampsj legally. My parents don't claim me on their taxes and I don't have to lie about how much money I make, he said. Where does Larry spend his money? I spend it going out, on gas, buying booze and smokes once in awhile, he said. I never spend money on clothes. They're too expensive. Larry, an industrial arts major, said a combination of lack of money and dwindling interest in classwork resulted in a tentative decision to quit school at the end of fall quarter. I like living here but I need a break from schooI, he said. l'm trying to line up a job back home. l'll spend some time up there and some down here. l'm even thinking about going to Atlanta with some friends and finding a job down there.

University land was offered free to students, faculty and townspeople to help fight a 12.5 per cent cost-of-living increase by growing their own vegetables. Originally 17 plots were plannedg more than 300 persons responded They weren't turned down. An area behind Allerton Apartments was plowed and disked by the university grounds department. Once farmland, the .jf W ground was donated to KSU by the William S. Kent family and was last tilled in 1961 to grow corn to feed campus squirrels. To educate the gardeners who would be recouping the long dormant land, a new organization formed, Plant Lovers United of Kent QPLUKJ. It held seminars at which speakers provided information on soil and weather conditions, care and maintenance and tips on the crops best-suited for northeastern Ohio. Gardeners went to work, supplying their own seeds, tools and fertilizers.

Culture Creative Arts Festival: Luring artists with peanuts ls the KSU Creative Arts Festival dead? Although Tom DeNapoli, festival arts committee chairperson. doesn't exactly say so, it is evident he is disappointed in the direction it's heading. The week-long condensed artist-lecture series, as DeNapoli describes it, is suffering from the same highly contagious disease that plagues all of Kent State University - budget cuts. They fthe universityj expect me to beg top-name artists to appear here for peanuts, says DeNapoli. Peanuts, in this case is a 85,000 budget, he says. While that may not seem like peanuts, it is when compared to its past allocations. The nine-year-old event once had a budget of 315,000 or better. Just two years ago the figure was 89,000 and the 1975 festival had 86,000 A top-name artist will charge 51,200 plus expenses for an appearance. Some artists are contracted to conduct at least one workshop, and the committee hopes interested students will have access to the artist. 130 5--0 'I 4? . Q' ul-I 'I 4 1'.i,Q ' no 1 'H Z' lv ,,. -'Q l 'WV C i -. 7 DeNapoli laments that while his committees budget declines costs such as air fare, room and board and publicity rise. Dr. Robert J. Bertholf, an assistant professor of English who has assisted at some past festivals, is also upset about insufficient funds. The creative artistic community has always had the least political influence when it comes to budget matters, says Bertholf, That's why they are the easiest to cut. DeNapoli says he tries to get as much variety as possible in the artists selected. I cover as many of the arts as l'm financially able, says the senior journalism major. The bulk of my festivals have revolved around filmmaking and the visual arts because that's where my interests lie and I felt that these areas had been overlooked in the past. The 1975 festival included three persons involved in visual art. Phil Leonian, a commercial photographerg Scott Bartlett, an IIIIWW ' Y - xiii-4 --in K , .. experimental filmmaker,and Jim Bridges, a Hollywood film director and screen-writer visited KSU. For musical interests, the committee brought Dialogue, a group DeNapoli says is unique, combining music, theatre and comedy. Their festival appearance included an outdoor concert in the Student Center plaza. Another music feature was the National Black Theatre Company, whose show traced black music history in America. The other festival performers were the improvisational theatre group The Boston Tea Party, and the Kent Acting and Touring Company's Godspell production. Last year's festival had attendance problems that DeNapoli partially blames on the Daily Kent Stater. We couldn't fit the workshop times and places on our posters, so we said to see the DKS. They printed some Opposite page, left, the National Theatre Company presented Feelin' Good, an historical review of the black man's influence on American music right, experimental filmmaker Scott Bartlett, this page, top, a member of Dialogue, experimental musicians, bottom, members of The Boston Tea Party, an improvisational group, and right, Prairie Fire, a revolutionary singing duo, sings of the struggles and experiences of working class people, DeNapoli doesn't blame the DKS entirely for the festival's poor attendance. A majority of students aren't interested in creative or performing arts, he says. Then he gets angry, and says bitterly, l'm doing this festival for those who do care and who'll show up. DeNapoli is to graduate in June 1976 or soon after. What does he think will be the fate ofthe Creative Arts Festival? It's a rare bird and probably will be extinct in a few years, he says. And money is the main reason. But the fact that it's free is one of the things that makes it so worthwhile. He harbors one last hope for the festival.

Summer is a time to get away from books and studying for most students, but some, if they qualify, can study under experts in their field through the Blossom Festival School. Art, music, theatre and dance students participate in the program which was begun in 1967 to promote greater student involvement in the arts. Music students play in ensembles and study under Cleveland Orchestra musicians at Blossom Music Center, summer home of the orchestra. More than 400 participated last year, including a select group of high school graduates who could attend because of a 335,000 grant from Ford Foundation.

Students gained experience in everything from lighting to acting to 132 -1 'ern L ticket selling. Dance students participated in the program through the theatre department. An art gallery opened on the Blossom grounds this summer as a showcase for the works of KSU students, faculty and visiting artists in the program. Inflation is taking its toll on many of the programs because although funding has not been slashed, costs have risen. A three-year grant from the Ford Foundation Venture Fund was exhausted in 1975. Student scholarships and grants were the first to feel the pinch. Still, Blossom School administrators hope to obtain more university funds to make the program a year-round offering.

Artist-Lecture Series: A change of program In the attic apartment of an old house, a young man puts his pen down and walks across the kitchen to the wooden cupboard. Tea bags, peanut butter, bread, flour. He scratches his belly and checks the refrigerator. Mayonnaise, ice cubes, water, a can of pork and beans. He takes the beans. He shuffles back to the table and rearranges the rejection slips from the morning's mail. CScene fadesj The picture changes to an obscure office on the fourth floor of the Administration Building. A slim woman, her hair in a braided knot atop her head, discusses the Artist-Lecture Series. The woman is Joanna Harley, director of the Artist-Lecture Series. She makes phone calls to contract people of cultural note, coping with a budget that has been cut by two-thirds since 1970. Artists'fees have jumped by as much as 125 per cent in the last year. We've had to reduce the number of performers and change the character of the entire program, trying to maintain the quality, Harley said. Artists no longer are hired for a single performance, but for an extended period of time which includes classes and workshops as well as performances. The Bella Lewitzki Dance Company was in residence in November. Actor Kevin McCarthy and soprano Phyllis Curtin of the Metropolitan Opera were to visit winter quarter. Also on the program were cellist Janos Starker, art historian H. W Janson, comedian Lily Tomlin and jazz musician Cat Anderson. Allotted university funds and grants used for meeting contracts have not been sufficient to meet the past year's needs and the program has had to dip into its financial reserves, she said. The reserves are almost gone. Even if we get the same allocation from the university next year, we're in trouble. We're wondering how we're going to program, said Harley.

C 5 5 Five weeks of rehearsal, two weekends of performances and your normal university theatre show is finished. The student actors return to the everyday business of sociology and English, exams and term papers. Professional theatre is different. Last summer the members of the Kent Acting and Touring Company QKATCJ ate, drank and slept theatre, in short, lived the lives of on-the-road professionals. Fourteen persons, all but one a KSU student or former student, traveled in an old, remodeled school bus and a van. They performed 65 times in 21 southern Ohio cities and hamlets. All in nine weeks. It was the first time l had ever toured and it was an incredible, incredible, learning experience, says James Thornton, director of the company. KATC's touring show was GodspeIl, the rock musical version of the gospel according to St. Matthew. The talent 134 was picked by the director after spring auditions. Thornton rebuts criticism that he is competing with the educational theatre for talent. This is a different kind of theatre, for a different purpose, he says. I think it's like a town with more than one newspaper. I believe the more theatres you have, the better the theatre is. Touring with a show, performing in a different theatre every night, is a difficult undertaking. Godspell played in churches, in sanctuaries that were anything but stages, and adaptations had to be made. lt's fantastic, an incredible trainer, says Thornton, who feels the group adapted like professionals. Actors are used to doing a show where the lamp is always in the same place or a dance is always done in the same area. Junior theatre major Carl Benton, the show's choreographer and the man whom Thornton calls the key to the show's aesthetic conception, describes his impressions of the A I Kent Acting and Touring Company performs Godspell on the steps of the Student Center, Opposite page, standing, cast members Jackie Noll, Marci Maullar, Chip Norwood, John Hicks, front row, Dan Boggess, Eve Obirlin, Sheila Crowley, Denise Christy, Gary McCann, not pictured, David Pritty.

For those involved in university theatre, however, it was another in a series of frustrating events that began in 1960. For like the Greek tragic hero Odysseus, these theatresare having a hard time making their way home. Originally, plans had called for the Music and Speech Building to house all the university theatres. But money grew scarce and construction was halted after the E. Turner Stump Theatre was built. Stump Theatre became university theatre's showcase. Shows produced there were fairly well known, faculty directed and given prime budget consideration. Student-directed or experimental productions were relegated to a basement dungeon known as the Cellar Theatre. They told us back in 1960 that the building would be completed in a few years, says Dr. William H. Zucchero, head of the theatre department. The university's promises, promises have yet to be fulfilled. By spring 1971, the university realized the inadequacy of the Cellar Theatre and space was donated in Rockwell Hall. Although no money was allocated for the move, three theatres eventually were improvised on the second floor. For five years, students had to cope with old, crowded and leaky facilities, hallways which were an eyesore and poor acoustics. lt didnt really upset us, says Zucchero. I recognized the move as being only temporary. The important thing, he says, is that there was a laboratory for student productions. But when the university dealt with its own space problems by 136 1 3 ii' iz? ! I., Q-' w - . .I .5 4 consolidating offices in Rockwell, the theatres were once again homeless. The basement of Franklin Hall, a building as old as Rockwell and having similar structural problems, was offered as a substitute. Zucchero says it is adequate as a temporary facility. What can you do? he says. lf we say we're not going to carry on at all, it's going to hurt the program. But if we make do with what we have, the university might think our facilities are satisfactory. Alan W. Benson, director of the Franklin Theatre Workshop, is not happy about the move but is consoled by the few improvements, such as a more permanent lighting system. He says student productions have improved. We now look at the shows done here as major productions, just as great as Stump, says Benson. Budget cuts have been accepted in the theatre community as a fact of life, but they obviously have hurt. Zucchero quotes a five-year budget reduction from a healthy 320,000 to 53,600 The university insists the addition to Music and Speech is within the top three items on its lists of priorities. You just have to look at it all with a sense of humor, says Benson. I believe the workshop theatres are fulfilling their function. The most important thing is that it's been educational. But we won't be satisfied till we're back in Music anc Speech. Story by Harry Zimmerman Photos by Jack Radgowski Top left, The Return of Sgt.

Tuesday Cinema for five years has been showing a kind of expanded cinema, the result of the use of film by poets and artists as a vehicle of expression. Tuesday Cinema received a grant winter quarter 1976 from the National Endowment for the Arts that allowed it to present filmworks, a broad-based program of experimental and independently made films, free of charge. Themes for each evening ranged from classic experimental works to women's films. The intent was to reach an audience that until now has been exposed mostly to Hollywood-style movies, as well as to provide an intensive study for student filmmakers. Six filmmakers were to visit the campus to present, discuss and explain their films. Their work might be avant-garde, such as that of Tony Conrad, who boils and bakes film, or documentaries by Albert Maysels, who films a subject objectively, allowing a powerful personality study to be exposed.

To the tune of African drumbeats, a breakfast of banana pancakes began the day's activities. Mini language workshops were held in Swahili and Yoruba, poetry was read and Dr. Ftobert Stull of Ohio State University spoke of the survival of black art. The African Arts Workshop presented a modern dance with exotic costumes designed by the class, and the KSU Gospel Choir gave a soul-stirring concert. Fashion shows and art exhibits were held while traditional African games were played. The festival ended with an evening family-style meal of African and West Indian dishes.

Jazz Lab Band: Swinging with the best The KSU Jazz Lab Band keeps some pretty fancy company in the music world -just ask Sammy Davis Jr., Buddy Rich, Henry Mancini, Maureen McGovern or the O'Jays. All of them have used or are using musicians who have played with the lab band. Dr. Walter Watson, a codirector, says the band has produced more good professional musicians than any school with a comparable jazz program. The band has performed at a number of Midwest collegiate jazz festivals, recorded four albums and played with musicians like Dizzy Gillespie, Clark Terry and Joe Williams. Its peak of success, Watson believes, came in 1969-1970 when the band performed at the internationally known Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland. Often with bands, you'lI have many players who have only a passing interest in music with no burning desire to excell, he said. But in this year's band, we have a lot of fine players and quite a few individuals who have a desire to play music professionally whether on the road with a band, or as arrangers or studio musicians. lllllllll' Hilti jllll FQ The band includes individuals like trumpeter Jeff Wilson, who also plays for the musical production at the Coliseum, tenor sax Bernard Watt, who left the band in February to play with the O'Jays and John Orsini, who became the lab band's codirector in the fall after a five-month tour with the Glenn Miller orchestra. Orsini also plays for musical acts at the Front Row Theatre. Big band jazz, such as the lab band plays, is always vibrant and musically stimulating. It needs good musicians, good charts and good improvisers. The swing and intensity created by the 22 musicians, the punch provided by its horn section and the solid backing of its rythm section gave the lab band's performances a great potential. The band plays everything from modern Buddy Rich or Maynard Ferguson arrangements available commercially, to old jazz standards arranged by band members. The band averages only a couple of university concerts a year because of its desire not to wear out its welcome.

By 9 p.m. Johnson and many others had lost their jobs. The fire destroyed the Water Street Saloon, where Johnson played bass guitar with the band Good Company. Johnson and Mary DuShane, Good Company's fiddler, had just finished a rehearsal when they noticed smoke seeping up from the basement Kove. Fire officials said an electrical short near a gas heater caused the blaze, which gutted the Saloon and the Kove and damaged Pirates Alley, also in the building. Fifty firemen battled until noon the next day to put the fire out No one was injured but the losses ran more than 3270.000 and one band. All three bars were owned by Robert Petrie and were not insured. Petrie estimated the damages at more than 5250.000 140 r- Good Company and 15-60-75, which played in the Kove, lost most of their equipment in the fire. The two bands estimated losses of 320,000 Good Company disbanded as a result of the fire and personality conflicts, 15-60-75 now plays at J.B.'s. The loss of the bars is perhaps greater than the monetary loss. The Kove, the Saloon, Pirate's Alley and the whole Water Street strip attracted people from Cleveland, Akron and Youngstown. Doormen estimated an average Friday and Saturday night crowd to be 600 at the Saloon, 700 at the Kove. Also lost was the only place in Kent that donated space for free community dinners. Although the town will carry on and the crowds will drink, dance and party elsewhere, the fires mark the end of an era of good time and good company.

On the podium: A gathering of antiwar activities and a reunion of Kent State's seemingly ageless radicals. Red, blue and gold -the banner of the National Liberation Front- hung limp but proud in the still spring air, punctuating the small group of the faithful, the curious and the media surrounding the speakers' stand.

The crowd of about 200 came to attention only during the keynote address of Jesuit peace activist of Flev. Daniel Berrigan. During nearly a dozen other speeches, the audience chatted, socialized, toyed with their flags and dodged roaming photographers. Berrigan said he hoped May 4 commemoration activities would talk of the future - not just burying the dead. The futures of the United States and Southeast Asia have been reborn with South Vietnam's surrender, he said. Six hours later in the Prentice Hall parking lot, about 700 gathered to witness dedication of the replacement memorial marker, purchased through faculty donations. The original memorial plaque was stolen May 3, 1974 and was found Mayl 2, 1975 pierced with bullet holes. Before the traditional candlelight march preceding the vigil on sports where the four students died, the Rev. Ogden White of the Presbyterian Church and Rabbi Gerald Turk of Hillel House offered prayers of dedication. White asked the audience to meditate on our hopes, our hurts, our angers, our fears and our lives. Others brought these same things to this place at another time. I We fear remembering and returning. May God strengthen what we brought to this place tonight. Led by Arthur Krause, father of slain student Allison, Michelle Klein, graduate counselor at the Center for Peaceful Change, Peter Davies, author of The Truth About Kent State and Dr. Jerry Lewis, sociology professor, the march across the muddy Commons began. As about 4,000 candle-bearers wound a path around Front Campus, the solemn mood was threatenedg for some, it was destroyed. Motorists on Man Street - some visitors to Kent for the Eagles rock concert earlier that evening - taunted marchers with voices and horns, ln a fiery display, torch- bearing Yippies ran through the crowd and down the hillside amidst Yip, yip, Yippies! whoops until they were restrained and order was restored by marshals. Back at the Prentice Hall lot, march leaders reached their destinations and began the vigil. The television lights clicked on, strobes flashed in the darkness - catching a tear here, a prayer there. The night sky was a chilling blanket, thinning the crowd to a core of silence and candle flames. Memories. Meditations. Emotions. The past. The future. The present. Memories. The past. The future. The present. Sunday morning, May 4, 1975, was rainy and cold. Few campers remained on the Commons when the first university- sponsored interdenominational church service in honor of the four dead students began in a Taylor Hall classroom. The service focused on reasons for the gathering and read in part: The questions and answers are worth remembering. We memorialize the event to bring those questions and answers to our minds again. And today, on the same day, in the same place, we look again at man and at ourselves in the presence of God. Keynote speaker at the May 4 Memorial Committees noon gathering in the Ballroom was Eugene McCarthy, presidential candidate and former senator from Minnesota. The white-haired '76 hopeful tackled problems of the economy and unemployment during his speech, but struck home with the crowd of about 1,000 when he said the righteous and arrogant attitude of United States involvement in Vietnam was carried over into handling of students. Also on the podium, former nun Elizabeth McAllister said , 4. -x lgltlgl-,,,ff ' . ef 'lc bib:--nu ' May 4 thas already been forgotten by most people in this country, as well as by most students at Kent State. The only hope for America is in remembering Vietnam. We're entering into an era of forgetfulness, actually intensifying a process that began with World War ll, he said. Calling the United States a country that idolizes death, the wife of activist and former priest Phillip Berrigan said, Our society is so committed to death that it killed some of its own citizens because they wouldn't join in its idolatry. Dr. Michael Lunine condemned the use of violence to end violence and called the KSU Center for Peaceful Change a precious, living, fertile memorial to the dead and wounded. The former dean of the Honors and Experimental College cited KSU as a microcosm of the real world, and said campus people are the most valuable individuals in society. The whole university and world should by a place for the study of peaceful change, he said. Receiving the most mixed reaction was Tom Grace, one of the nine wounded students. Some in the crowd waved NLF flags in support, others shouted disapproval and some walked out when Grace labeled the victims of May 4 martyrs for the Cambodian people. Denouncing gun control as a governmental method to remove weapons from the hands of the people, Grace emphasized anti-imperialism, bring the war home philosophy. Follow-up speakers from the Revolutionary Student Brigade and Vietnam Veterans Against the War saw the crowd dwindle as heckling increased. Story by Keith Sinzinger Left, former Sen.

The questions and answers are worth remembering. An acquittal and an appeal lt was a bitter day for Arthur Krause. The trial was over. They have just destroyed the most wonderful document ever made by man. Thanks to them murder by the state is correct. The Constitution does not protect anyone against armed barbarians. The jury ruled against Krause. lt was not the first time. But it may have been the last. More than five years after Allison Krause and three other students were slain on the Kent campus, the courtroom drama had reached its peak. The jury found Ohio National Guardsmen and state officials not liable for the May 4 shootings. As the jurors entered the Cleveland courtroom on Aug. 27, 1975, one wept openly. As the nine to three decision was read, the chambers were filled with sobs and shouts. lt's still murderl yelled Tom Grace, one of the nine wounded who, with parents of the dead students, were plaintiffs in the S46 million civil damage suit. This is an outrage. There is no justice. Others wept bitterly. Chief counsel Joseph Kelner lashed out at Judge Don J. Young and called the verdict a mockery . . . a travesty which must not be allowed to stand. On the other side, comments were tempered. l think this supports the system of jurisprudence and law enforcement across the nation, said retired Adj. Gen.

James Rhodes: Right, Dean Kahler, wounded May 4, 1970 Defense attorney Charles Brown of Columbus, an aggressive interrogator on the courtroom floor, ignored the prospect of an appeal, telling the media, Gentlemen, you have now heard the last word on Kent State. Brown was incorrect. After 14 weeks of testimony from 101 witnesses, the last word remains to be spoken. An appeal filed by plaintiffs was expected to reach court in May. Conducted by the American Civil Liberties Union, the appeal was expected to center on questionable rulings by Young concerning introduction of evidence, Young's instructions to the jury and the possible perjury of some defendants. As of publication, chief appellate attorney Sanford Rosen was poring over details of the 13,000 page trial transcript. Contradictions between the testimony of Rhodes and Del Corso concerning a phone call to then-Vice President Spiro Agnew held little significance during the trial. ln September, the Cleveland Plain Dealer published DelCorso's secret grand jury testimony which detailed a Rhodes call to Agnew, Rhodes still denies making the call. Other grand jury testimony, which Judge Young would not allow the jury to hear, was read into the record by Kelner for appeal purposes. The courtroom drama is over, the five years have been hard on Arthur Krause, the other parents, the students - and the guardsmen. The appeal may bring a different decision, but like the one on Aug. 27, it will be joyless, bitter . . . and a long time coming.

Arrested in June 1974, he was initially charged with misusing S350 in university funds. He pleaded guilty in October 1974. He could have faced six months to five years in prison but Portage County Judge Edwin Jones in August 1975 suspended the prison sentence on certain conditions, which included a 60-day jail term. In addition to the jail term, Ashley's probation required his repaying the university and staying on probation for three years or until the money is paid back, 158 Officer John Peach of the KSU Police Department said Ashley fled to New York following his arrest. Persuaded to return to Kent, Ashley eventually changed his plea to guilty. Peach refused to disclose Ashley's methods, but said the theft was very easy to dog since then, he said, the university has tightened its accounting procedures of student organizations. Peach said police investigation showed some of Ashley's money was attained through the manipulation of concert checks sent to musical groups. Ashley said what he did was legally but not morally wrong. He refused to say how he spent the BUS money but said it was on neither himself nor BUS. Moreover, he added, if BUS 1 members had known what he was doing they would have approved. fOfficer Peach said evidence shows Ashley spent some of the money on his rent.J Ashley said his only real regrets were not telling his BUS constituency what he was doing with its money and pleading ' guilty to the charge of theft of funds. I should have told my Q ll ,. l constituents who put their faith in me. This was my basic wrong, he said. He said he did not inform them and pled guilty to avoid bringing a lot of people into the proceedings if something happened. Nor, he said, did he want the resulting publicity. l knew the sentence would have an impact on my life and goals but I didn't feel bitter. I never felt bitter, said Ashley. He plans to pay back the money at the rate of about S100 per month. In a letter in the Daily Kent Stater written in November 1974, Ashley addressed himself to the higher echelon of the Kent State community and the economic class of which it was a part. That class, he said, has from the start been involved in deceit, lies, murder, theft and scandal. I learned in psychology 162 and sociology 150, he wrote, that is a proven fact that association brings about assimilation. I can say from my personal experience with you that this is definitely true. The upper echelon, Ashley said last October, breaks laws every day and gets away with it because they have backing, that's the way it is everywhere and the way it always will be. The CIA is one example . . . People do the same things every day that I did. As a campus figure, I got caught up in the way they ran things . . . it was a gigantic mistake . . . You get caught up in it but you forget one important thing - you don't have the backing they do if you get caught. Ashley said he is going back to New York City to drive a cab, something he has done in the past. He also plans to study law although not necessarily to become a lawyer. Eventually, he said, he will run his own business with a group of friends. Ashley said half-jokingly that he should have received the Manchester Cup since it had been voted for him before the selection committee knew of his misuse of funds. The cup was awarded to no one after it was withheld from Ashley. Story by Ron Kovach 159 'My roorfrffate couldnt understand that rape nas nothing to do with sex. Ann Gabriel was raped.

She was a very passive, feminine woman, Gabriel said She could not understand that rape has nothing to do with sex or making loveg it is sexual male aggression against a female. She was really destroyed by the whole thing. Gabriel said a cultural inhibition against talking about sex often leads women to equate the act of making love with the crime of rape. I have no guilt feelings about it myself because it wasn't me, it was an aggressor. QL-Q-5 16 ,-X ...Ao ,nv Y . H.---....--.., ---......, I , .... 399-g....,,p .. A. Y -.

Security -H the night patrol The hours aren't the best in the world, yet they don't seem to mind. While most of the campus sleeps, they remain awake. They are the student night security aides who patrol the dorms every night from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. securing the doors, checking for unescorted males on female floors, checking fire alarms and equipment, keeping a lookout for vandals and robberies and escorting women who have to walk across campus alone at night. The 35 aides workin pairs and cover six areas on campus. The group is mainly criminal justice majors, many of whom work to pay their way through school. 162 I make S241 an hour doing this, plus experience and a reference for the future, said Tony Barker, one such major. The job was inconvenient at first, he said. He had to adjust his sleeping habits to his work schedule, which averages from 12 to 24 hours per week. l've got my class schedule fixed so now l don't have any classes before 11 a.m., so I can sleep after l'm through working. Barker says he's never caught anyone committing a crime. lt's usually fairly quiet around here, he said.

In the theatre wing of the Music and Speech Building a stage lighting class meets one week per quarter from 11 p.m. to 3 am. Students set up and adjust stage lights for theatre productions. Dan McCown, a class member, said the group meets late because rehearsals and set construction keep the lighting crew from working during the day. McCown said he dabated about registering for the class but, somebody has to do it tlightingb and this is one good method of getting people to do it. ,gg Other nightly work in the theatre includes the sweat shop atmosphere of the costume design room.

On the first floor, journalism students work in the photo lab and slave to produce publications.

He said the only way to obtain returns from the long hours invested would be to purchase stock in Martin Vending, the firm which owns and services the coffee machine on the first floor. Sometimes you wonder if you're free to think or if it's just muscles reacting, said Mead late at night in the photo-lab as he prepared prints for classes. One early morning Susan Murcko, co-editor of the Chestnut Burr, was asked why she keeps late-night hours at the Burr office. Come back in an hour, she said, l've got to take a nap now from being up all night. Burr editors plan stories, print pictures and draw layouts throughout many long nights.

The high cost of living takes on a different meaning on any given Friday night in downtown Kent. Then, the party people hit the streets looking for relaxation after a hard week of classes. Money flows as quick as liquor in the bars. According to owners' and bartenders' estimates, more than 4,000 people will enter bars close to 7,000 times and will drink over 1,560 gallons of beer and 4,900 ounces of whiskey before the night is over. Another 5,000 - plus bottles and cans of beer will be consumed. Draft beer is the big seller over 64 kegs, or 11,634 glasses. Beer figures may be slightly higher because beer is sold in carry-out stores and entertainment centers like bowling lanes. According to estimates, including cover charges for various places, bars realize a gross of over 516,000 before the night finally ends. ' These figures do not pertain completely to college students, but bar owners agree that students account for 60 to 78 per cent of their business. Owners, bartenders and patrons all say individual preferences determine which bar a person enters, and for how long. If you want a quick drink or two, don't mind feeling like a sardine and want to see a lot of people, Chuck Thomas, manager of the Loft, says his bar is the place to come. We get a lot of traffic, he said. Around 800 to 1,000 come in on Friday night for a couple drinks, then move on. Friday is our busiest night. I guess it has something to do with Saturday being a traditional date night. The dating bar in Kent, according to one of its managers, is the Dome. We have a dance band - you know - Top 40 stuff, she said. lf you want a good mixed drink, go the the Town House Lounge. If you like a disco atmosphere, light show and want a computer to mix your drinks, the Krazy Horse is the place. If Tequilla Sunrise is your favorite drink, hit the Blind Owl and ask for BZ, lf you have the money for a S125 cover charge, like live music and want to see the beer flow heavier than it does anywhere else in Kent, Filthy McNasty's is your bar. i Opposite page liquor flows abundantly In bars this page top IH carry out stores bottom left from wlnesklnsg botiom rlght at a f '34-xvw-1. . K E Money flows as quick as liquor. Filthy's has taken the lead in cover charge, people coming and going and beer drinking. The succession of leaders over the last two or three years, according to owners, was from the Dome to the Krazy Horse, and now to Filthy's. The assistant manager of FiIthy's, Terry Knezevic, says the reason for his success is good entertainment and beer at popular prices. Being a new bar does not hurt, he says, because people always are looking for something new. There is a discrepancy between Terry's figures and those of the bartender who fills the coolers. The owner says 10 kegs and 15 cases of beer are sold on a Friday night, and 12 bottles of liquor. The bartender says 15 kegs and 25 cases are sold. Using either estimate, Filthy's is in on about one- fifth of the Kent action. Surprisingly, the Flathskeller is second to Filthy's. It sells about seven kegs of beer on a Friday night. Another kind of action can be found on Water Street, where six bars line the street. Joe, the bartender of the Ren-de-vou, says his bar is for older people. We get seniors, grad students and professors who are trying to get away from the teeny-boppers on the street, he said. Some students don't wait until the weekend to unwind. John Coffee, a freshman from North Canton, is a regular. He drinks about six to eight beers every night of the week, which he says is not a lot compared to other regulars he sees. I like the Kove, he said. There is more of a relaxed atmosphere there. The people are more into entertainment than drinking. The Horse fKrazy Horsey used to be good until the jocks took it over. Coffee said, The place is always packed. They must bring in a lot of money. Owner of the Kove and Water Street Saloon, Robert Petrie, refused to comment on sales. Neither would owners of J.B.'s the Deck, Pirates Alley, Walter's Eastway Recreation Center and the Schwebel Ftoom Lounge. 316,000 is really only part of the story of how much money is spent in Kent on one Friday night.

Almost anything goes at KSU. And the fashions stress individuality or functionalism or freedom or flair. F. Scott Fitzgerald said, Begin with an individual, and before you know it you find that you have created a typeg begin with a type, and you find that you have created - nothing. So we shall begin. With individuals. We could find few men wearing the S85 jacket suggested by Playboy for college wear. Or women wearing Mademoiselle's choice - a S62 cardigan. But we did notice last fall that variety was making a comeback. The KSU T-shirts were packed away with summer clothes. The plaid flannel Iumberjack shirts were saved for only the coldest winter days. Instead there were dressier tops on men and women. No one went as far as to burn his or her jeans. A more practical garment has never been created. Jeans are for all seasons. Sturdy. Durable. Rugged. Need no ironing. Have pockets. You can ride down snow-covered Blanket Hill on a cafeteria tray in jeans. You can sit in jeans at a desk where someone recently has been resting feet. You can sit on the floor in jeans if you cannot find a place to sit at all. Denim is the greatest fabric to hit the world since cotton replaced linsey-woolsey. lt will be with us interminably. lf the students we talked to could buy just one new garment to bring to school, it would be a pair of well-fitting, sexy jeans. But on campus they were paired with: gauzey man-styled l78 shirts in heathery colors. Leotards. Kabuki shirts. Men and women were wearing denim shirts with patchwork and embroidery trims. Long, belted sweater-jackets with cowl collars. Silky printed shirts. Even a gored velvet jacket. And on a fair day, a campus fashion-watcher could catch a glimpse of some striking looks Tall women with masses of frizzy hair, juicy red lips, midl- length skirts and platform shoes. Or fragile-looking child-women in long calico dresses with little puff sleeves and scoop necklines. Occasionally a woman in jeans whizzed by on her bicycle, a gypsy scarf flapping jauntily in the breeze. When winter came knitted hockey caps and sheltering hoods hid beautiful afros and long silky manes alike. Functional became fashionable. Navy pea coats. Nylon parkas. Heavy sweaters. Corduroy pants that rustled when the wearer walked. Scratchy wool socks. Heavy-duty shoes. Students made their mothers happy and themselves thopefullyb pneumonia-proof by donning mittens and long knitted scarves. They quickly adopted all the kinds of clothes that really work for hauling themselves around when the snow is piled high. But in the spring the campus became a rainbow of pastel halter-tops. Feet, legs, backs, midriffs, shoulders would all hang out. Shorts. Cut-offs. Tank tops. Freedom. Freedom. Functionalism. Flair. individuality. Fashion at KSU.

The bicycle club was originated by Murphy during spring 1975 to provide an opportunity for socializing, education and exercise. The club rents tandem bicycles noon till dark on weekends and sponsors 20-mile group rides on Sundays. These rides average 15 participants, who usually ride three- or 10-speed cycles. The club also sponsors long-range tours, one of which was a tour of the Scioto River Valley. The bicycle boom has seen its day, said Murphy. Its -. 1.. ':! J FS.. - 1:-N ' , . - r ,- - CY1 ,V 41, . i f 1 faq 5 height was two years ago. Those now buying bikes are making return sales and buying their second 10-speeds, he said. Unlike Europe, the car-oriented United States has been slow to take interest in bicycle racing, which Murphy thinks is a good way to build up interest in the sport. After all, he said, before the big money purses were available to tennis players, you didn't see as many people interested in tennis. Story by Debbie Heisman Photos by William Green, 185 The million-dollar difference Sports On a good day at the golf course, Mike Lude can honestly says he feels like a million. l-le can point to all the charts he has in his office around the back and up the stairs at the KSU golf course. He can flip through all the black books of figures he's been collecting since he became athletic director in the fall of 1970 and he can show you just what intercollegiate athletics here is worth in terms of dollars. A million dollars. Roughly 1,000 men and women compete intercollegiately on 20 different teams, to the tune of 120 grants-in-aid, each of which pays for tuition, a double occupancy room, food and books. A projected S366,000 for the 1975-76 fiscal year. ln addition to the grants-in-aid, the projected million-dollar budget includes S404,000 for salaries and S411,000 for operations, which includes things like putting the tarp on the football field. Where does the money come from? I don't know, Mike Lude says, then turns to his charts and books and tries to tell you. Half of that million-dollar budget is wiped out by what Mike Lude calls hard income - gate receipts, ticket sales, facilities rentals, away-game guarantees and fund raising. As for the other half million, Mike Lude says it's from the right pocket to the left pocket, which is allocation from the treasurer's office - university-provided funds, fees and state funds. Student attendance at 1975 home football games totaled about 14,000 which included a peak of 4,500 at the Miami match Student attendance at 1974-75 home intercollegiate basketball games totaled about 6,000 with a high of 1 800 fans at one contest isa At the end of a long hall in Memorial Gym, late in the fall, just inside of a door marked Intramurals, Dave Straub rests his tennis shoes on his metal desk and talks about people. About 60 programs and 10,000 people a year Cabout one- third of which participate each quarterj and the very idea of running around a gym for the joy and satisfaction of being able to do it. He points to a sheet on his desk which shows that in the last five years, the number of people involved in intramurals has doubled. It also shows the budget has stayed the same, about S35,000. The money is allocated from student activities fees and no funds are provided through general university revenues. He talks about the new allocations procedure which allows each student to decide where his S9 for the year will go, how intramurals could go down the drain if students forget about running around the gym, swimming in the pool, participating in a bicycle race or a chess tournament or co-recreational activity. Without saying it, Dave Straub talks about the difference a million dollars makes. iEditor's note: We decided it would be more representative to ishow as many of KSU's 10,000 intramural buffs as we could. However, we could not justifiably ignore intercollegiates, so lthere are as many action and group shots of those men and women as we could assemble for their fans. As for the above figures, while we see tremendous advantages to both programs, we feel there is an urgent need for serious inonpolitical evaluation of funding for both areas. l Story by T. J.
