(Lnimaginuhle. you say? Shut up. there more . . .) Kneeling, the teacher rattles off a phrase, in a foreign language no less, then with a brisk finger snap, points in your direc- tion, then whirls around and looks up directly into your eyes for a response. Somewhul surprised, but not in- timidated, you repeal the phrase without a stutter. With a look of pleasure and pride (and perhaps a tinge of relief), your teacher embraces you momentarily, then snaps, points, and looks to another. Not your typical classroom ex- perience? Well, incredible as it sounds, the above scene is actually typical, as of this year. It’ called the Kenyon In- tensive Language Model (KILM) and, by virtue of a sizeable grant from the Gund Foundation, was implemented for the 1980-81 school year in French, German. Italian, and Spanish intensive courses. KILM is Kenyon’s version of the Hassias Method of language learning, first developed by Dr. John Kussias at Dartmouth University. Its main features are fast-paced action, dramatization, and constant use of the “target language in class. Including daily sessions with a Master Teacher, in drill sessions, and in the language lab, the program calls for roughly twelve hours per week of language im- mersion. but requires very little addi- tional work. The result, as standardiz- ed testing here and elsewhere has prov- ed, is a program which enables students lo attain in a single year the proficiency of two years' study by con- ventional methods. An important part of the method, in fact, what KILM director Peter Seymour calls “the backbone of the program,” is the AT (Assistant Teacher), who lends the drill sessions. In this second hour of class each day, the student is subjected lo rapid-fire repetition drills, grammar exercises and games by his AT, in order to prac- tice what he has been taught in his Master Glass. For maximum effect, AT sessions are limited to eight to ten students. The student tutors are chosen after a training workshop held here each semester. A major objective in all teaching ses- sions is to keep the students interested, thinking, nnd ready lo respond quickly when called upon. To do this. MTs and AT often engage in some rather ex- hausting histrionics to drumalize dialogues and lead drills. A one AT lamented, “After a full day of classes, the only thing tougher than getting yourself psyched lo teach them is gel- ling psyched to listen. “It's a great way for me to review,” remarked another AT, “and it really is fun, too — I’ll never be able to work food ser- vice ngain. 17 ■.ML J1 i V11 I Group housing provides community service and alternative I housing for students -1 Group housing, which started v� ith the Spanish wing two years ago and involved only three organizations last year, has rapidly multiplied to include eight co-ops in 1980-81. An alterna- tive to the housing lottery, these inter- est groups not only live together hut also add variety to life on the Hill. The current housing groups include the Spanish wing, the French wing. Mather fourth floor co-op. the Creative Con- servation co-op. the Uppercluss Sisters. I.AKK. the Tri Phi , and the P.S. Living Group. The Spanish wing initialed interest housing because of their fascination with Spanish language and culture illicit still flourishes today. Through their activities, slide shows, and enthu- siasm. members of the Spanish wing, according to Jim Archer, “keep up with conversation in the language and extend their learning outside of the classroom. Rased on a principle similar to the Spanish wing, the French wing in Copies uses informal discussions more than group activities to enhance their group living. The fourth floor Mather co-op is in its second year of existence. Founded on the idea of remaining a self-con- tained unit on campus responsible for cleaning and living quarters as well as many of Kenyon's social events, the group has initiated several new activi- ties this year, including a student art gallery. Involved in promoting the arts as well as environmental concerns, the Creative Conservation Co-op in Man- ning sponsors a recycling center, helps run the craft center, and publishes a campus-wide newsletter. Working especially hard to get the cn.irc com- munity involved with their activities, they try to he more than just a self-con- tained group. A group of sophomore women who felt a need to help freshman women become integrated into Kenyon's lifes- tyle. founded the I pperclass Sisters. Striving to fill a gap they experienced their freshman year, each member “adopted eleven or twelve little sis- ters. The group as a whole sponsors many activities, ranging from wine and cheese parties to a women's coalition, held with the sup|Mirl of Kenyon's other women's organizations. The l.ihcrnl Aesthetic Kenyon expe- rience. known as I.AKK. has empha- sized the intellectual and aesthetic in their group living. Kach member plans a community-wide project or sympo- sium ranging from first aid and Sicily to reincarnation and wilderness sur- vival. The group has also sponsored some coffeehouses this year and is well known for its impromptu jam sessions. I nlike the housing group, the Tri Phi's did not pass through the housing committee, hut received the chance to live together from Dean «calling in order that they could function as a resi- dential women's organization. Despite the opposition they faced in the Ken- yon community because of their soror- ity-type association, this group has stuck together and has emphasized aspects of the Kenyon community through its work with the local elderly and other community organizations. The P.S. living group, organized to develop a sense of community, achieved its purpose both inside the group and with the Gamhicr commu- nity. P.S. drew front people active in several aspect� of the college: debate, music clubs, student council, and sport� . Gelling started proved difficult due to the combination of strong per- sonalities. “We visualized ourselves a� a circle w ith everyone on the perimeter: we all had a lot of energy pulling out. «rent Clark explained. One thing which did pull the group together was the P.S. — sponsored Handicap warcncss Week in Novem- ber. This week not only made a valua- ble contribution to Kenyon life, hut also gave the members of P.S. a focal point for their diverse energies. Mlliough they did raise Kenyon's con- sciousiiess of the problem of the hand- icapped. they feel their efforts amount to merely a drop in the bucket. Almost everyone in the group would agree that to really get to know someone is a sacrifice: you've got to In- willing to get hurt. «rent said. I.aurie «rown. another group member added. “You have to he willing to pul lot� of time in.” Mlliough several of the mem- bers formed strong friendships, they realized that expecting everyone on the hall to he close to everyone else was impossible. All of these co-ops. through their variety of purposes and function have offered an alternative to Kenyon's housing possibilities. Members of the group� have benefitted greatly from the added closeness. Most important, every one of them has in some way hel|H-d dispell some of the all too prevalent Kenyon apathy. -Maurern (,nllugher In a pcrform- aniT that • mii rcvii-wcr culled breath- taking.

The K«k« s. although entertaining last year, really burst into life by adding chore- ogrnphy to many of their songs. Several new members added to the depth and richness of their sound. The Creckers released an album this winter that dis- played their close harmonies to advau- tap-. In addition, their parody of Washing Dishes complete with dish- cloths and Custom smock� delighted listeners. Peppy new members helped to spice up the old favorite� „f « rocker � repertoire. All in all. both group� had a successful season. -The Kenyon (allege Choir — 1 choir presented two programs this yr It rah m's Requiem, and Handel’ f Alexander-Fesl with “Let Cod ri I nder the direction of Daniel Robin and Dr. Graydon Reek� , the choir p strong interpretations of all t-i works.

After losing most of it- member- last year, a crop of fre-hmen and one new sophomore brought in fresh lilood. Hopping through “Java Jive and doo-dooing enough to make Simon and Garfunkel -mirk, the group performed several limes at Kenyon and gave concerts in Zanesville and the (Country Court Nurs- ing Home in Mount Vernon. -Continuum — This unusual group fea- tured provocative late I'lth and early 20lh century instrumental and vocal music. It was certainly one of the most distinctive concerts within recent mem- ory. -(hamber .Singer — The a capella group, led by Mr. Daniel Robinson, had an extremely active year. They gave three concerts at Kenyon, featuring the music of Itach, Barber, and Kick Sowash. In addition, the group per- formed on tour in Chicago, the Ken- nedy Center in Washington, and local churches. -Paul Potnak — This Kenyon faculty member demonstrated his prowess on the keyboard in two recitals. The first featured early american jazz: demand- ing music which I’osnak controls skill- fully. Hi- second recital wtjis marked by the same strong technique, hut this time featured classical music. Po-uak played the same program in a London recital in March . •Allegory The Gamekeeper — The first of the many student-written senior theses. Allegory revealed the last days of a hoy's life through the letters he had written to his fiance. Clara Church, who developed the script, gave a touch- ing portrayal of the fiance making a la-t visit to her former father-in-law to he, played by Kvan Jones. ‘Gamek- eeper, written and directed by l.oree Friedman re-constructed the cosmos with God being controlled by Gamek- eeper, a mafia-type thug. ? i -Itum,-s for [)er ember— Vidi ling Artist •sally llowden !• 1 Kenyon's dancers in their I i!l ••«� : eri.

Beer, movies, parlies, and din- ners enhanced the warm sunny weather and a good time was had by all. Perhaps the most interesting time was dinner, for a sizeuble number of underclassmen still on cumpus “adopted” a senior's name to eat. The phrase. ‘‘How could 1 have eaten if I haven't been here yet?” was often heard in Peirce. Though ftir some the week was a mere celebration, for others it was a time for reflection, as they realized graduation was coming all too soon. The realization that many friends and familiar faces would soon he gone fostered a true sense of elass unity. As the words of CSNY permeated the night air at the Hohinson's, the real meaning of Senior Week became clear, “we are for each other . . . s I I I I 1 J t Beautiful weathrr and one of thc largest crowds ever earmarked the 153 rd Commence men l.

Kmdergarien students can no longer count high enough to keep up with the Conference tally now sported by the men's team, and the Swimmin' Women have now won five OAC Champion- ships in five tries; a feat which has mov- ed them well out of the men's shadow and into a position of respect in their own right. But this year's season was successful from another standpoint: for the first time, the men’s season overlapped with the women's. This meant that the two teams had to alternate practice hours on a weekly basis, had to share the training facilities in Florida, and had to show patience with Coach Jim Steen, whose job it was to somehow co- ordinate the crowding of two quality teams into the confines of Shaffer Pool. ,VS That everything went smoothly as silk, that the women won Number Five and and the men Number Twenty-Eight, was indicative of what will no doubt be remembered as the finest year yet for Kenyon Swimming However, this year will be best remembered as the year that the men, after having lost badly to Johns Hopkins in the last great dual meet to be swum in Shaffer, came back to life to literally destroy Hopkins at the NCAA meet held at Oberlin, garnering their se- cond straight National Championship in the process. Kenyon Coach Jim Steen was named Coach of the Year for the third straight year, and fourteen of.the Lords established themselves as All- Americans by finishing in the top twelve in their respective events. As a whole, it was the Lord's phenomenal depth that produced their second straight NCAA victory; one that in many respects was more satisfying than the first. For the Ladies, the same sort of come from behind'' victory was achieved at the OAC meet, as they pooled their talents to crush a strong Wooster squad that had dominated much of the dual meet season. Eight of the Ladies traveled to the National Championships in Iowa, and all eight achieved All-American status as Kenyon finished a respectable twenty-sixth in the first real attempt at competing at the National level. The time-honored tradition of Shaffer Pool was expressed throughout the season by way of signs proclaiming Witness the Greenhouse Effect, an effect which will inevitably be lost as the Kenyon Swimming teams make their move to the new pool contained within the ARC. From a training standpoint, the new facility will no doubt enhance the continued upward movement of the Kenyon Swimming program. But it was in Shaffer Pool where it all began, and if swimming performances are any way of saying goodbye, Kenyon's swimmers said goodbye rather well. rTTTTTTFTTTT INDIAN SUMMER AND COLD RAINY DAYS ... Cross Country is that rare sport with few participants and even fewer spec- tators, an activity whose best moments are determined by the capricious fall weather; when a cold rain which most people are avoiding inside sets the stage for an enduring five mile slog, or when Indian Summer brings a gold specked beauty to a forest trail which runners suddenly crash rudely along, oblivious of everything but the opponent behind and the next turn ahead. The 1980 Kenyon Cross Country season began with an in- conspicuousness suitable for the sport's usual role of anonymity on this campus or any other. Several team members spent a week at Coach Nick Houston's house before school began, running five miles in the morning through fog lingering from the night before, and then ten miles in the afternoon in the humidity and heat of late summer in Ohio. This training as well as the return of five members of last year's 11-1 var- sity squad, clearly pointed to new plateaus for the team. The biggest asset for the men was the return to the team of senior Bob Stan- dard, school record holder in the 5000 from the spring before, whose 120 miles a week over the summer promis- ed great things. Five sophomores, Mike Helme, |im Parmele, Andrew Huggins, Mike Vanderlinden, and Marty Goldman, were back, joining seniors Dan Dewitt (Co-Captain) and Fritz Goodman, and juniors leff Cahn (1979 MVP) and Ed Corcoran. Freshmen Mike Glaser and Eric Lausch rounded out the squad. The team finished its season with two strong performances in a row. The Saturday before Conference the team ran at the Denison Invitational, where they avenged their earlier loss to Wooster by beating the Scots, and everyone else but Otterbein. to finish 2nd of 8 teams. 62 At Conference the following week the team experienced only a minor let- down as it failed to qualify for the Regional meet, finishing 6th of the 14 OAC teams. However, it was still the best Kenyon finish ever, and both Stan- dard and Helme put in outstanding per- formances and qualified for Regionals as individuals. Under Coach Houston's patient hand and endless optimism, the team turned in performances this season which were highly indicative of Cross Country at its best; competitive, immensely en- joyable, and of course obscure. The team is ready for next year, and will be back out in that Ohio heat come September, eagerly awaiting both In- dian Summer, or perhaps cold rainy days too. The mention of the sport Cross Country conjures up images of lone runners loping across hilly courses. However, for the women's Cross Country team the year was marked not only by individual triumphs, but by an incredible team spirit. The closeness of the team was made possible by the generosity of its members. During a meet, every runner was concerned for «he others, as well as herself. This con- cern was fostered by workouts that were almost identical for each team member. The encouragement of her ieilow team members during these workouts made each runner want to do the best not only for herself, but for the team The enthusiasm was well reward- ed the team was undefeated in season meets, and placed second in the con- ference meet, earning a trip to Madison. Wisconsin and the regional meet The trip to Madison epitomized the spirit of tne team. To get there they all had to run well, and once they got there they had fun The team wore Halloween masks on the van to and from the meet. This would, in the words of one team member, freak out peo- ple at gas stations. Mealtimes were another opportunity for togetherness. The women would eat off each other s plates, split portions, and play games. The race itself was a low pressure situa- tion for most of the runners Some ran for the sheer joy of running, with good results: the team had placed seventh out of fourteen teams in the first regional it had entered. Perhaps the team's attitude was best summed up by one member: Whenever I was in pain, I smiled. RUNNING WILD ... THE ROAD TO WISCONSIN R. ■i FOOTBALL While traversing the highlands of Gambier one brisk autumn day. I hap- pened upon a peculiar sight: on a field below me was a group of uniformed in- dividuals running about a great field, chasing an odd leather ball. On one side of this field was massed a group of 30 or so men. clad in blue and white garb Some of their comrades were engaged in battle upon the striped field with an equal number of opponents. The blue and white men, referred to by a vociferous bunch of citizens standing nearby as the “Lords, were out- numbered and outsized by their opposi- tion. Yet, despite their lesser number, they seemed to be behaving in a man- ner quite disturbing to their opponents, for whom the nearby citizens nad a pro- fusion of colorful appellations. Eventual- ly. the competition came to a halt and the units dispersed. I was left alone to ponder that extraordinary group of men. who overcame lack of size and number with intensity and spirit to fare admirably on the field of competition. wmmmgBBm—------------- Bottom Row.

Too many injuries, a few embar- rassing mistakes, but the progress and the improvement made was great An integral part of every game this year was the van rides. Who could forget the luxurious comfort of the school vans? Players with more ... refined tastes were relegated to the “Disco Van,” the other van left its choice of station to its exalted driver. Tony Elkis. Complaints ran high though, when the station switched every time Queen “Bit the Dust.” or whenever else Tony got the urge ... the games, of course, had their memorable aspects too. Bladwin- Wallace was one of the best played, with Tim Truitt giving us the win in dou- ble overtime, and tne team getting a total of SO shots at goal ... the first game was memorable in its way, the only ones who scored were freshmen What were they trying to do? impress the coach?

Then there were the sundae sprees with Wanda - van rides on uncharted backroads - last minute (second) wins, usually in double overtime - Cricket, our loudest fan - Wanda in her softball uniform - french braids - The Office - the disco van - never enough Tab - Anne's ever present camera - the parents who came to Tournaments - Mr. Eld's green pants and movie camera at na- tionals - having to have two parties so that we could finally see the films - Ex- cessive Mouth, Elbows, and Green Cards - The W.

It was a very good year. StfiErw I 1 I I I '■Stars' In what one team member called a dress rehearsal lor the outdoor sea- son, the men’s and women’s indoor track team grew together while running in what the team called the quaint old barn a.k.a. Wertheimer Fieldhouse. Mr Pete Peterson, in his first year of coaching, put the team through intense workouts that often lasted late into the night The team missed dinner many times because of these late sessions. Thse efforts produced at least one nota- ble achievement: Bob Standard broke the school record in the one and two mile races. The women, coached by Bill Heiser, accomplished the same team spirit and unity during their season as well Said one runner, Meets were truly secondary to practices, which really brought us together. IX ft A New Era... ARC — The Ernst Center Foe some. that giant new buikkng called the ARC was forgotten almost before the tirst ground was broken If you didn't play a sport and never got down below Bolton Theater, the ARC and its construction was a kind of campus white elephant which nonetheless you never really | ayed atten- tion to Penodtcaly you wouki catch sight of it. after a gap of a month or so. and be ge- nuinely amazed at how far aking it was lor others, the ARC svas a daily sight, whose construction stuck so close to the proposed schedule that new additions coukl Ik sfxed regularly For Kenyon s athletes and coaches and spec tators (some ol whom, like the tootlwB team, would barely use the facility at all) its presence was always felt, in a healthy sense, if only because I Ming down there everyday you coukln't help at least to see It. CoOegun articles through the year sided with the administration s viewpoint and of- fered only to answer the ostensil le campus question of What is the ARC?” The more pressing question to many however, was ac- tually Why the ARC? In order of campus construe bon. the ARC came before a much needed acklifion to the Library Why did the Coftege. people asked, which attracts students almost solely on its academic reputation, forego book shelves for locker rooms?

Amidst these varying college opinions, the main question of athletics over academics still continues Although many people have a variety of answers, the best one probably is that Kenyon finally has the tacities which it desperately needed for at least the past eleven years - if not longer. Ideally, the ARC was meant as a campus, and not just athk tic center, and with healthy campus participation, another Kenyon tradition, it will become such a thing The lil rary Annex rs scheduled next, and so perhaps the only important c|ues(ion remaining five years hence will be why one before the other' But by then well have lM fh. and only their places in line will have been ditferent ■JW BASKETBALL - VOLLEYBALL i i I There is an undetinable element, an indefatigable energy source that keeps a team with a losing record competitive There is a sense ot achievement trom effort and enthusiasm that marked the 1980-81 version of the women s basket- ball team Unlike so many teams whose numbers dwindle when the bright light ot victory flickers and grows dim. the Ladies stuck together as a group ot ath- letes determined to grow and work against the formidable odds ot superior programs as other schools The Ladies were bona tide proof that success can- not always be measured in terms of vie - tones gained, but must necessarily be assessed according to the degree ot ful- fillment that each individual achieved To them goes perhaps the greatest compliment that can ever Ih bestowed upon «i group ot athletes you were competitors in the truest sense ot the word You could kind of guess what kind of team this was the minute it boarded the van for another trip to some far away enemy court See. sometimes teams can get sort of lackadaisical and nonchalant once they start winning. Well the Ladies didn't run into that problem They net- ted a dandy 13-15 record and led the league in singing They had this rowdy Captain, see. this Karen Stevenson, and whenever she wasn't whaling on the opposition she and tier buddy Lauren Weiner would just start whaling on their guitars. They'd sit there picking and plucking and singing real tine, ami pretty soon everlxxly'd lx? joining in So you kind of got the feeling you were watching something special here - a bunch of good friends who got together to jam a little and play some volleyball and win a lot That's a pretty damn good combina- tion BASKETBALL An era in the history of Kenyon has- ketball tame to a close with the finish of the 198081 season. Next year the Lords will dribble out of the dusty confines of Wertheimer fieldhouse and into the newly-constructed ARC. The old air- force hangar will long be remembered as the home of past teams, and the proving ground for former All-Ameri- can's lohn Rinka and Scott Rogers. This year's squad posted a 10 If� record and extended their season into the second round of the Ohio Athletic League playoffs before losing a hotly contested battle to Ohio Northern (� I- 55.

WOMEN’S AND MEN’S LACROSSE What can be said about the Women's LaCrosse team that hasn't already been said? We finally beat Denison. We only lost one - our first against Denison. We had a good time, even though it rained a lot. But - what stands out? Mr. Vennell - who came to work one day, and didn't get home until after he had taken three van loads of girls to our first game, and his first as a Women's LaCrosse coach, in Wooster ... Cricket - who never could find a comfortable place to lay in the vans ... losing two-thirds of the team around every corner... Coach Burke ... great clays ... BEATING DENISON ... the team. I I I WOMEN’S AND MEN’S TRACK This year was a year of changes and new experiences for the Women's Out- door track team: six of its eleven members were freshmen; even the track and field were new. The team's core was the indoor track team, who after getting dizzy running on the small track inside all winter, appreciated the new surroundings. The team made great strides in warmups, when frisbee tossing was a common pastime. But they paid off: Megan O'Donnell and Ann Batchelder set records in the discus and two track events respectively. The team performed well as a whole, plac- ing fourth at the Kenyon relays, and seventh at Divisionals. The team ex- pects more good results next year, since this year's members will all be returning. Ideal spring running weather and a good dose of the old college try gave the small but versatile 1981 men's track team a real boost this season. Especially boosted was team captain Bob Stan- dard, who drew on a strong training base and raced in distances from the 800 meters to the 5000m: by the time the season was over he had firmly established himself as Kenyon's finest distance runner ever, holding the 800, mile, 1500, two mile, 5000, and 10,000 records. With five other seniors, Chet Baker (discus), .Mark Daily (400, 800), co- captain Dave Thomas (Long and Triple lump) and Kyle Hickok and Pete Dolan (pole vault), the team was well led both indoors and out Sophomores Fred Barends (400, 200), Andrew Huggins (Steeplechase), Mike Helme (1500, 5000, 10,000), Ross Miller and Joe Moore (Shot, Discus), Marty Goldman (800, 1500), Garth Rose (110, 400 hurdles), and Ian Lane (middle-distance) filled out the remainder of the team WOMEN’S AND MEN’S TENNIS 84 The Women's Tennis team had a suc- cessful year. They won the Satellite Tournament and placed seventh out of 32 teams at Conference with the doubles team Kathy lameson and Linda McLaughlin reaching the final round. The ladies were very excited and proud over their performance this year, as was their coach, Sandy .Martin. They look forward to more fun and success next year. Both teams went to Florida to relax from Kenyon (and to get their games in shape) The Men's team came back very tanned, but a little too relaxed. They placed third in conference behind Denison and Ohio Wesleyan, and tied for Second in the GLCA Tournament. They look forward to a better year next year although they will lose captain Kerry Hall, their number one singles player. They won't, however, lose their strong camaraderie and those great Florida tans. CLUBS i In early September, on a humid Sun- day afternoon, a large group gathered at the Cambier Community Center field in a desire to play the fast, exciting game of women's soccer. The coaches, Tom Robinson and Stewart Wiley scrutinized the team. Little did they know what they were in for. How many of you played soccer last year? they asked the group. Six hands went up. How many of you played soccer in high school? Several more hands rose into the air. How many of you have never played before? Five or six more crept into the air. Hmm, the coaches nodded smiling. Run three laps. Since that first day our hardy group has progressed from being a scattering of individuals of varying abilities to one unified team all quite learned in the art of soccer. This transformation was due very much to the coaches and their assortment of semi-sadistic exercises, such as sprints, suicides and variations on suicides. Soccer was for us a club only in name We had three practices a week when the field was available and played games against other schools, such as: Ohio Wesleyan, Wooster, and Denison. Much has changed since our first game of the season against O.W.U. when we were unable to even call to a team mate, not knowing her name Slowly but surely through the past months our team has become more unified, more aggressive, and more knowledgeable by our coaches' determination, captain Anne Thomas' bubblegum handouts, and the general enthusiasm Perhaps in terms of victories, ours was not an outstanding season In terms of skills learned and friendships made, however, it was a winning one 85 HELD HOCKEY WOMEN'S BASKETBALL MENS SWMMNC FOR THE RECORD FOOTBALL Kenyon Opponent 0 DePauw 23 37 Case Western 7 T7 Ohio Wesleyan 34 14 Oberbn 7 7 Heidefcerg 35 17 Marietta 6 20 Otter bein 26 0 Bakfwm-Wallace 37 0 Mount Union 20 R BakU.

We wanted to open up stu- dent government and ensure that policy would not be set in a cloistered atmosphere. — Dan Mechem ARTICLE I. Members of Government and Qualifications for Office President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Dan Mechem '82 Brent Clark '83 Joe Caperna ’84 Keith Krusz ’82 Everyone was qualified. ARTICLE II. The Senate Section 1. Handicap Accessibility Brent Clark, representing the P.S. Living Group, initiated a campus in- vestigation into handicap accessibili- ty. The study found two departments entirely inaccessible, and prompted the school to begin renovations by in- stalling ramps. Section 2. Common Hour Dan Mechem proposed that the col- lege block off a Tues-Thurs class period so that all students and pro- fessors would be free at that time. This Common Hour could be used for campus meetings, department plan- ning sessions, lectures, appointments with faculty, and many other things. Its purpose would be to promote communication between all areas of the college. Section 3. National Affiliation The Senate established a procedure to be followed by any group wishing to affiliate itself with a national or local organization. Daniel B.

This change allows a smoother transition between administrations, gives committees like Social Board a chance to plan first semester events, and gives the new administration an extra month to develop a feel for the job. Section 2. Unfair Housing Council, In conjunction with the hous- ing committee, opened one meeting to hear concerns over housing. Not intending to rectify the situation, Council hoped to define the sources of the problem. Section 3. Food Service Committee Galbraith M. Crump English Hamilton College Robert W. Daniel English University of the South Clark Dougan History Kenyon College Suzanne P. Dougan Drama Vassar College This was perhaps the year’s toughest problem area. Mechem applauded Steve Coenen for his efforts to establish a working relationship with Custom, and for improvements in the dining room. Clark, however, felt the committee should have responded more quickly to students, In par- ticular to Council’s recommendation that a new food service be found for next year. Looking toward the future, the committee developed a question- naire to be used every year to allow students to evaluate their food service. Section 4. Drug Use In response to the administration’s concern over what they perceived as heightened use of drugs, Mechem called an all-campus assembly to determine if there is a need for a new drug policy. No one was impeached. Artists learn to tell stories with puppets, quilts, and sculpture Kenyon’s diverse Art Department has included some very interesting parts in their program this year. Two studio art courses — printmaking and sculpture — have proved especially captivating for students. Printmaking, according to Terry Schupbach. professor of the course, “is like trying to draw with a vacuum cleaner. Copper, the medium used, has a mind of its own. Not only must the students reflect their own creativity, but they must meld with the medium itself. One image in print- making can be used and manipulated in a variety of ways to create the ut- most for the effort expended. Sculpture also envelops a unique feeling for the artist. Its three dimen- sional form creates for many artists a reality unobtainable in other art forms. Another special event was Schup- bach’s animated lecture on the history and lore of puppets. Not only are puppets created to evoke children’s laughter, but they have held various roles throughout history. Schupbach, who designs most of her own puppets, demonstrated to us that the puppeteer is truly an artist. Though most puppet shows are rehearsed and traditional, an element of spontaneous creativity is vital to keep the unpredictable young au- dience transfixed by the show. Another unique exhibit was Joyce Parr's contemporary quilt show. The stunning quilts displayed color, vitali- ty, and a history behind each quilt. The growing popularity of quilts in- dicates that they are slowly being thought of as art form, and not merely handicraft. These three special pro- grams have shown different ways art can tell a story. Karen L. Edwards English Brown University Kirk R Emmert Political Science Williams College Kathryn L.

Raymond Heithaus Biology Kenyon College Oavid Hommendingcr Philosophy Harvard Univorsdy Richard F. Hettlinger Religion lPHS Cambridge University Bonna Wescoat-Holtzman Art History Smith College The Integrated Program in Human Studies, a continuously evolving series of courses, has undergone a major curriculum change this year. The sophomores and juniors now par- ticipating in the program spent the final month of second semester read- ing books by. for, and about women in history. According to Dr. Richard Hett- linger, director of the program, IPHS had been looking for ways to incorpo- rate more books by women authors to compensate for its neglect of a major component of society and history. Women are in a crucial period of change and challenge, Hettlinger said. The faculty decided to trace this process of change by reading four books by authors who wrote in the first wave of the women’s movement at the turn of the century, and two more by modern feminists. Besides reading works by women, this year saw another first for IPHS. Ms. Maryanne Ward participated in the program on a part-time basis, lec- turing on several books. “It’s vital to the program to have a woman in it, Hettlinger stated. Being the only woman in a program which was presenting its first section on women did have some disadvan- tages. It is difficult to be part of what you're talking about.” Ms. Ward com- mented, because it's difficult for both faculty and students to keep a pleasant, safe distance from these texts.” The section on women gave IPHS students a chance to become more truly liberally educated. It allowed men and women to explore the wom- en's movement, and its implications for this campus, together rather than in segregated social groups.

Hecht German Ohio University 95 1 Okefenokee Swamp introduces students to nature and each other On the seventh day of March, eight members of the Kenyon community left Gambier in an over-packed van for an experience they would not forget. Most of the cohorts, seven students and one professor, were un- familiar with each other. None knew quite what to expect from this diverse group, ranging from environmen- talists to fraternity members, to feminists and to simply biology ma- jors. All had one similar intention: to explore the beauty of the southeastern United States. It was my first trip south of Maryland and I will never forget my first sight of live oaks, palmettos and the eerieness of a southern forest with vines and Spanish moss dan- gling from the trees. On the ninth day after two days of travel, we managed to find our first southern character on a boat ride to an island off the south of Georgia. None of us will forget his southern drawl as we were gawking at a por- poise swimming by our boat. “Yu’all Yankees thought ya had everythin’.” We spent three days exploring with binoculars, bird. tree, and wildflower books, attempting to identify any and all that we could. We all lent a hand cooking our meals on a Coleman stove. We were alone on our island enjoying the ten mile beach where water fowl was so abundant we felt we were in bird paradise. We spent the next leg of our trip canoeing in Okefenokee Swamp. With lunch on back, we set out for a full day of paddling through the winding waterways surrounded by Cypresses and alligators. The following day we drove south to the Gulf coast of Florida, spending two days canoeing in another Richard B.

We would paddle only a few strokes before having to put the paddle down and gaze through our binoculars as coots and pelicans dove around us. Weaving around the waterways, we would pad- dle to above-ground hammocks, or small islands, that we would claim ours and name and then continue on our adventures. At night we sat around the fire, attempting to use our liberal arts edu- cations discussing such things as the meaning of the word “natural. We cooked marshmallows, sang songs, or wrote letters. But most of our time around the campfire was spent eat- ing; quantity not quality was our motto, but our food was nevertheless not bad! We spent the following day at the marine biological station of the Uni- versity of Florida, walking around the island somewhat glad we didn’t have to paddle through rivers and channels with rough winds going against us no matter where we turned. Packing the van, we headed north to Tennessee and the Smokies. It was a radical change from shorts and sun- block to the falling snow we had to set up our tents in. We cooked in the snow, and despite the freezing condi- tion we could only laugh at our ridicu- lous position. The next day we hiked in the snow despite warnings that it would be two or three feet deep at the top of our climb. Under the super leadership of Nick Brokaw. thought of as more companion than leader, we ended our trip, feeling luck to have been a part of it. We hoped that it was a new trend at Kenyon, where other nature buffs like ourselves could explore the envi- ronment as we had. But it was not so much where we went that made our trip so special, it was whom we were with. Our diverse group became more than homogenous, and this spring we are the most together team in the co- rec softball league. 99 ftiftttttttttttftftftttttmittmtmimiiBW� Community unites to explore creativity In mid-February, spurred by the common interest of several faculty creative process to the process at work in art, physics, poetry, and drama. Creation, it seems, requires much more than inspiration, it demands hard work. Creativity need not limit itself to the arts, rather, it should be a way of approaching life. On Saturday afternoon, Terry Schupbach directed a print-making workshop. The blank copper plate confronted each participant with his or her many partially answered ques- tions concerning the meaning of art. beauty and creativity. Everyone ex- perienced the decisions, the pa- tience, the dissatisfaction and frustration, the hard work and the pleasure involved in creating something original and beautiful. Acts of Creation was exciting; thought-provoking. Ever-more in- sightful thoughts seemed to float around the biology auditorium that weekend, like inspiration itself. And those present realized that the hard work of an artist must proceed from the inspiration, or else It will float away and be wasted. The colloquium dared all present to be creative par- ticipants rather than passive learners, and to carry this attitude into every discipline and every part of life. Cathy Paine Dance University of Wisconsin Charles A. Piano MFLL members, the college joined in a four-day pursuit of the meaning of creativity. This unique colloquium, called Acts of Creation , brought faculty, students, administrators and guests together in the true spirit of that often-talked-about Kenyon Ex- perience, to try to discover the essence of that creativity which is so central to the vitality of academic pursuit. Panelists presented a broad inter- disciplinary look at the topic — from the psychology and history of the Franklin Miller. Jr. Physics Swarthmore College Jefirey L.

Sharp English Kalamazoo College On the first spring weekend of 1981. the Chaplain, the Association for Cultural Exchange, and the GLCA Latin American Program sponsored a successful conference on “The Church and Social Change in Latin America. For many of those who followed any of the events, the con- ference was a most educational ex- perience, much more than a mere academic exercise; they provided a deep and insightful view of Latin America today, a perspective filled with compassion and understanding coming from personal experience. Penny Lernoux, a free-lance jour- nalist who lives in Columbia, and is the only full-time investigative reporter on Latin American Affairs to- day, joined Roy Bourgeois, a Maryknoll missioner expelled from Bolivia, and Dr. Joel Gajardo, a Chilean theologian now living in exile. Together these people gave the other side of the story in Chile, the one that does not usually get published by the media. Among the topics discussed were the role of the church in social change, the impact of the presence of the multinationals in the Third World and the alternative development paths that Latin American nations would have to choose from. On these discussions, the main lecturers were joined by Professors James Weekly and Stephen Hills from Indiana University and Ohio State. Ms. Ler- noux debated with these men on their presentations. The many people attending the conference proved its importance to the Kenyon community. Even more indicative of its impact, however, is the Support Group for Latin America (El Salvador) recently formed by students, faculty, and staff. — L_ PACC probes into many sides of current questions in politics The Public Affairs Conference Center, under the guidance of new director Fred Baumann, presented much that was stimulating and worthwhile to the Kenyon Community this year. In fact, a conservative estimate (the only kind, some would say, that a Kenyon political scientist could make) tallies over 50 hours of PACC sponsored events. The first 15 or so of those hours constituted the Conference on Soviet-American Relations. This two-day, 30 participant conference was the culmination of the previous year's PACC seminar on that topic, organized by Dick Melanson. Nine essayists, including Brookings In- stitute Fellow Seyom Browm and Soviet exile Alexander Yanov, offered their views on the nature of Soviet politics and the relations between this nation and the U.S.S.R. The discussion and debate of various points offered participants a balanced and informed perspective and the chance to reflect carefully on this timely subject. With the partisanship and prop- aganda of the November presidential election threatening to descend on even the academic grove of Gambier, the PACC saw fit to continue en- couraging careful reflection. Its four part “Election Series. explored the issues of the campaign and critiqued the candidates' individual platforms. The series included a panel discus- sion between Profs. Singleton, Gregorian, and Emmert on the economic, foreign, and domestic policy issues; an assessment by Prof. John Elliott of the progress of the campaigns, and a post-election presentation by Prof. Kirk Emmert discussing what we might expect from our new President.

Yow Biology Western Carolina College But by far the most popular event of the series was a mock Anderson-Car- ter-Reagan debate held in Rosse Hall immediately prior to the nationally tel- evised Carter-Reagan debate. It was generally agreed that the PACC’s ren- dition of the debate was more edify- ing and more adeptly represented the candidates that did the event it imi- tated. The Kenyon version was also quite entertaining, although admit- tedly. not as funny as the real thing. The climax of the PACC’s 1980-81 calendar was its Conference on Human Rights. Baumann planned and organized this conference as a survey of the questions of human rights pol- icy. its legitimacy on moral and practi- cal grounds. Essayists included U.N. Ambassador Jeanne Kirkpatrick; Car- ter’s head of human rights concerns. Patricia Derian; Marxist Edward Greenburg; and former Vale profes- sor Charles Fairbanks, currently working for the State Department. Although many were disappointed by Jeane Kirkpatrick’s necessary with- drawal from the symposium, the remaining six interlocutors suc- ceeded in a comprehensive explora- tion of the topic. One final event was a discussion- co-lecture by Nelson Polsby and Geoffrey Smith, co-authors of the book British Government and its Dis- contents, on the subject of current British politics. As with every PACC presentation, all in attendance were welcome to ask questions and offer comment. In fact, a major goal of the PACC is to stimulate consideration and dis- cussion of political topics in the Ken- yon community. By bringing capable political scientists and politicians to the campus, it has facilitated the study of those topics and encouraged political awareness and philosophic reflection. And that, even by the most con- servative estimate, is a liberal contrib- ution. Maryanne C Ward Russian lPHS Marymount Manhattan Clifford W Weber Classic� Harvard University Jon L.

SENIOR ESSAY How to Describe the “Goodly Race?” I.ast November. The New York Time , compiling a guide to American college and universities, sent out surveys to 250 college newspaper editors. They asked a great many questions, and requested several essays about Kenyon. I accom- modated them as best I could, although I was always hesitant to speak as the voice of the school, “on the record. so to speak. But I did answer. I told them four years at Kenyon pro- duces as many views of the college and students as there are classes to be taken or friends to be made. Perhaps that was the crux of it right there: from the very beginning, our views on almost everything are changing and developing. I was honest: sometimes the rural college scene can be a bore, especially in the winter when there’s no place to go. And as Kenyon is almost exclusively white. I said we are limited in the cultural perspective we offer. But I answered positively. I couldn't help it. Many people have said that because of our isolated location, we are inclined toward an academic way of life, and I believe that’s true. It’s easy to fall into the trap of getting down on Kenyon; too many of us do it. I can remember during the first semester of this year writing editorials for The Collegian, which chided us for our inward-looking ways for our lack of flex- ibility. Maybe Kenyon is a little inflexi- ble — a touch insular. But it has its own low key. but none the less dynamic quali- ty to it. For example, no doubt all of us would feel uncomfortable at the mere sugges- tion that Kenyon is a jock school. We are avowedly academic. Still, we have fielded teams that have competed in national championships during my time here. Similarly, although many of our students come from the Northeast, many do not. In fact. I would be willing to suggest that if unvthing. our attitudes and outlooks are distinctly Southern in character. A Southern gentleman established a literary journal here some forty years ago. The slow paced, easy-going atmosphere of Kenyon is more Southern than Nor- thern in flavor. The Appalachian foothills into which Kenyon is nestled, taste more of the South than of Northern rural Ohio. To my mind, that’s what's best about Kenyon. Because academic pressure ex- ists but is not inhibiting, because we are low key and thoughtful, because our various backgrounds mix well with our semi-Southern location, we are a distinct group proud but never loud, strong but never sweaty, sensitive but never flakey. This is not to imply bland or mediocre; we are unique. It is impossible, for exam- ple, to escape the sense of tradition here, and what tradition means. Actors, authors, businessmen and politician. of the highest order, are part of our tradi tion. It provides us with a backdrop, scenery if you will, around which we can work, and from which we can gain in- spiration. More than 150 years of tradi- tion, and thousands of graduates, give heritage from which we can get the footing to ascend. We must be careful, lest we be typecast as preppy because of our clothing and conservative attitudes. The same in- telligence which keeps us from being jock school should keep us from being snob school as well. By now our class is spread across the country, either trying to find a place to earn an honest dollar or perhaps doing so already. Some will do it in Nebraska- others on Wall Street. Amid that diversi- ty is our common link of being part « Kenyon’s goodly race which. I am win- ing to wager, we all view not only fondly, but with respect for all those whose race we share. — Parker Monroe. 108 109 •i Heather Peck History-Philosophy Sandy DiRocco English One of (he nicest things you can give another per- son m yourself is a sm e Kathy Kondo Psychology_________________ Rondo Kyokes “Shortie and of course “Mom Jane Wamshuis Psychology Inside: Kim Willitts Math Elizabeth Ann Tracy Art 111 Although the earth's technology is hopelessly primitive, at least I can metabobe the local toocJ. - XMan Ronald James Assaf English And if that wasn't funny There were a k t of things That weren't even funnier. - Joseph Heller Catch-22 Thomas Shehan English David L.

We made it through four years at Kenyon! Amazing!?! When we arrived four years ago, some things were different: the English professors' of- fices were on the third floor of Ascension, all plays were presented in the Hill Theater, fraternities were the special housing groups, and there was room for students to sit down at all swimming meets. And yet when we arrived four years ago, some things were the same: Spring in Gambier was wonderful, February was miserable, the post office was the central meeting place, and Middle Path expand- ed every year (by itself). That special blend of old and new has made Kenyon a very special place for most of us. It is a rare place indeed, where people feel equally at home in the tradi- tional ceremonies at Rosse Hall, full of pomp and circumstance, and the Ultimate Kris bee games on Ascension Lawn, full of pump and circumference (and an even rarer place which allows such levity in an otherwise serious essay.) The real beauty of Kenyon does not come in any one specific moment; it comes rather in the accumulation of sim- ple moments. Classes held in a professor's home or outdoors were a rare treat, allow- ing students to enjoy the double luxury of intellectual challenges and comfortable settings. Actually getting mail on the dai- ly trip to the post office, getting a good grade on a test, or enjoying one of the film society's weekend selections were occur- rences which could be appreciated either in solitude or in the company of others. We are not the first class to relish the experiences of the liberal arts education on the Hill, and we will not be the last either. No class has been composed of that unique mixture of men and women that have formed the Class of 81; no class will be composed of this mixture again (we hope, for the professors at least). Some things will change and some things will remain the same. We hope that we have carved a niche for ourselves at Ke- nyon and yet hope that we have left room for future classes to do the same. We began our Kenyon ‘careers’ with the Freshman sing; we close them with the Senior Sing. Kenyon links past and future in each of the songs which are traditionally sung on these occasions. But for one moment allow us to honor the pre- sent. Congratulations (to us)! — .Jim Archer.

Heyssel, Jr. History Patrick K. Schlemmer English Amy Flint English Michele Palmer English SENIOR ESSAY Kenyon Reviewed I can not write a retrospective account of my four years at Kenyon. I thought about it. but the visible fact of the vitality of the place confounds me and tells me that what I experienced is not something alien to myself, but an enduring process that gives Kenyon a life of its own quite apart from my limited conception of it. Let me clarify somewhat by explaining how I arrived at this conclusion. It all began one night at dinner as I stood in line at Peirce Hall with no more exciting prospect confronting me than the idea — and will it ever he more than an idea — of another institutional meal. (I chose the word “institutional particularly to eliminate the natural tendency to con- tinue saying SAGA.) It is a problem com- mon to upperclassmen, and one of the on- ly we make which freshmen can, and will, invariably correct. One of my long-time friends walked by and my roommate sug- gested a certain appellation for this par- ticular good-hearted creature Mr. Congeniality. I believe it was. I agreed unconditionally, the subject being a par- ticularly amiable fral-man who has never been known to utter a harsh word to anybody, and I began to joke with my roommate, making up similar senior superlatives to grace our particular favorites. Such raillery naturally led | to reminiscing about the occurrences and aqunintances of our Kenyon year This put me in an introspective mood, and I began to consider that Kenyon would never again house a class exactly like ours — that, in fact, the times are changing and Kenyon must change as well. However, the scene before me refuted such melancholy predictions before they had quite jelled into utternble premoni- tions. Here were freshmen, still entering Peirce as if it were unknown territory full of intimidating old hands ready to pounce on the first greenhorn who looked quizzically about for somewhere to deposit his or her tray after the meal. Here were the sophomores, ready to fully enjoy this scene of discomfort, resplendent in the confidence that they now knew the lay of the land. Here were juniors, cunning and cocky as only those who rest confident in the certainty that they can discourse equally well on metaphysics or the latest weekend gossip. Finally here we were. Seniors, recognizing all these stages so well because we'd been through them and they'd shaped us into what we are just as surely as all our books and courses have done. Oh, Kenyon will change and, as alumni, we may grumble and think back to what was good enough for us. but its essence will remain. Kenyon's essence lies in its totality it is a full experience that shapes and matures people now and forever. — Anonymous. Clay Capule History Tod Colbert Psychology vr. Mark Robinson Religion vV.

JUST ONE MORE Oner upon u lime there � u a magic staff. It was made of | gold and jewels und other precious things. It sprang from the ground in front of a castle numed IVirce. One «lay two ld«md witches — they were goo«l witches — flew « ver the castle lawn and saw the staff. They picked it up and took it to their workroom. They had stocked th« room with typewriters, fun- ny rulers, file cabinets, tables, and custom-made plates and cups. it Ogre had given them the room «m tin- condition that they write a Ixxtk for him about his -country, but so far they had found no one l«i help them. The witches decided to cast a spell on the room and th staff. They carried it « ut on the roof, tip- I toeing so that no one would catch them, and whispered “Reveille! (That means wake up in niugic talk.) The staff burst forth with all sorts of Ix-autiful flowers, out of which hopped fairies and nymphs. The nymphs sat down at the tables and used the funny rulers to draw sketches of squares and rectangles. The fairies flew all over the country, watching what was going on and writing ulxtut what they had seen. At- tracted by the noise, a big green frog with a moustache and a I Nikon camera around his neck hopped through the doorway.
