Raymond BARRE KABBAZ -.ycee frangais de LOS ANGELES .venue I MESSAGE OU While for many of our students, June is merely the end of just another year, it marks the end of an era for those who are graduating and going on to colleges and universities all over the world. Simply having an education is no longer enough in this world, and as more and more college graduates flood the job market, the basic bachelor ' s degree has become almost meaningless. Now, it seems apparent that graduate degrees are becoming absolute requirements — soon even a master ' s degree may be commonplace! The point is that you never have enough education, and the moral is one of motivation: continue the educational process throughout your life for life is education. At Le Lycee, we make the strong distinction bet- ween having an education and being an educated person. And there is a major difference. As the world changes faster and faster, simply knowing things is not enough. The world demands leaders who are capable of logical and humanistic thought; those who can cope with challenges as yet unfaced; leaders who can apply the process to the problem to yield a solution. Our 1978 graduates join a growing number of graduates throughout the world -- many already involved in the diverse and complex worlds of business, the arts and public service. These graduates are continuing to reflect great credit upon Le Lycee and our new graduates will hope- fully follow in their footsteps. It has been a fascinating year for us all — new challenges and new adventures. Plans are under way for yet new expansions. Our classes are full — new inquiries about Le Lycee are received daily -- and our many Friends of Le Lycee have given unselfishly of themselves in sup- porting a never-ending list of special events, projects and activities. This support is both appreciated and necessary. But at the same time, we can never lose sight of the fact that we are here for one single pur- pose — educating young men and women in an ever changing world.

Discours d ' usage a 1 ' occasion de la distribution solennelle des prix Juin 1977 There is a custom in graduation speeches to exhort graduation classes to continue their education, to strive for success in a world that is highly competitive. You will forgive me if I break tradition a second time and not only not speak in French, but also avoid the typical outlining of a career which, if pursued, will lead to health, wealth and happiness. Instead of telling you what you ought to do to get advanced education or find a job, I would like to offer some reflections on what is going on around us and how I react to it. For the last three years, public opinion polls have been telling us that people think things were better in the past than they are now and that things are better now than they will be in the future. This pessimism is not surprising. In the last decade, we have had Viet-Nam and Watergate. We have had inflation and high unemployment. We have become conscious that we are running out of oil and natural gas and we wonder if we will find substitutes which will enable us to keep our standard of living. We have found that the wastes from nuclear plants cannot be 100 percent safely stored and in fact, could be used by international outlaws to make atomic bombs. We have seen the health of the world ' s population threatened by the pollution of the rivers, the sea, the air and our foods. We have witnessed war and revolution in the Middle East, South Africa and Asia. Americans have lost their innocence and some of their confidence and they don ' t like it. Political, social and economic institutions are under attack. It used to be that doctors and lawyers were highly respected — now less than a majority of people have esteem for these professionals. Congressmen weigh in with 12 percent popular approval — just above used car salesmen. In some quarters, the free enterprise system is scorned as a means of economic exploitation and profit is equated with rip off. Even the institution of parenthood is under attack, although I somehow have a feeling this is one institution that will survive. Amongst many young people today, there is a coolness and detachment which covers up rage and insecurity. Numbers is one way to avoid the consequences of emotion. Another is to perform and not to feel — to acquire sensory experiences without emotional involvement. The lack of emotional commitment has many manifestations. In friendship and romance, it can be the covering up of feelings — an attitude that life is controlled by the invisible hand of fate. It really doesn ' t make any difference what one does in life as long as one protects oneself from getting hurt. Therefore, never let your friend or your loved one get too close — protect yourself from being ravaged. Avoid the ego wounds of a highly competitive culture by taking drugs or drinking or side-stepping work in school or out. If you never give yourself emotionally to another person, or if the things you do in life have no emotional attachment, you are free, spaced out, above it all. Kurt N ' onnegut, Jr. mirrors this detachment so prevalent in our culture in his books. In SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE, Billy Pilgrim is the innocent hero who says. The most important thing I learned on Tralfamadore was that when a person dies, he only appears to die . . . when a Tralfamadorian sees a corpse, all he thinks is that the dead person is in bad condition in that particular moment, but that the same person is just fine in plenty of other moments. Now when I myself hear that somebody is dead, I simply shrug and say what the Tralfamadorians say about dead people, which is So it goes. At another point in the same book, V ' onnegut writes, Some days we Tralfamadorians have wars as horrible as any you have seen or read about. There isn ' t anything we can do about them, so we simply don ' t look at them. We ignore them. We spend eternity looking at pleasant moments — like today at the zoo. Isn ' t this a nice moment. The unwillingness that so many people in our society have to confront their emotions — to love, and to hate, to laugh and to cry, to face reality — has led to a thirst for sensation as an antidote to pleasurelessness and deadness. Experience for the sake of experience is the gospel for these persons. The means of getting the sensation varies. It can c? a car, a motorcycle, a bottle of booze, drugs, sex, T.V ' ., or whatever. Reality becomes fantasy and fantasy is the only ' .-. ' iiity I SIP not saying that experience is equal to deadness. The point that I am trying to make is that when the sensation .-■ trie exDenence is an escape from genuine emotion, it represents an unwillingness to make a real commitment to • cr ideal. A lot of people cannot believe in anything today except what is in it for themselves. Success is getting ahead even if one has to cheat, lie and steal to do so. What really counts is making it. They say everyone knows politicians are dishonest, businessmen greedy and auto mechanics rip off artists. If you can take care of yourself, the devil can take the hindmost. I submit this type of thinking is highly destructive and dead wrong. I have been convinced for a long time that the process of living life is what gives meaning to life itself. It is the investment of emotional energy in another person or in an ideal that gives value to that person or ideal. When you commit yourself, you are risking a lot. You can be hurt if the other person rejects you, or if your ideal for human behavior is unreachable because people are not perfect. Without the commitment, however, you cannot truly live. I would rather reach for the stars and fail than keep my eves on my feet. At least when you are reaching, you can hope and when you are hoping, you have a chance to be fulfilled. I remember the night I won my senate seat six and one half years ago. Two years of extreme effort paid off. I had worked sixteen hours a day, seven days a week and I had stated my goals and ideals during the campaign and they were accepted by the poeple. I couldn ' t wait to translate my beliefs into action in the senate. I also remember the night I lost my senate seat six months ago. I was crushed. I felt rejected, but as the days passed and the smarting wound became a dull ache, I began to realize that I was richly rewarded. I was living because I was feeling. The true test of me as a person was to take the blows to my pride and fight back and overcome. I thought, I want to live and to laugh. I want to listen to life ' s music and see the foolishness in myself and the world around me. I want through my own will to grasp my destiny. A man called William Hazelitt after spending a lot of time reflecting on the human condition wrote, Man is the only animal that laughs and weeps because man is the only animal that knows the difference between what things are and what they ought to be. If we become emotional zombies we have lost our ability to tell the difference between what things are and what they ought to be. Life is then without meaning. Friends are replaceable and sex is stripped of romance and tenderness. I went the other night to see the movie STAR WARS. As I was preparing my remarks for today, I reflected on the immense popularity of the film and why I liked it so much myself. Aside from the fact that is a wonderful fantasy that totally captures the imagination, if is the story of how good triumphs over evil. The mindless, unemotional brutality of the empire, a brutality that can wipe out a planet and all its inhabitants without a speck of remorse, is defeated by human beings and human-like animals and machines that care about freedom, friendship and love. When the film first started, I found myself attaching very little emotional value to the robots and computers that were serving and in some instances controlling the humans. But in the end the machines had lifelike qualities. I identified with them because of their courage, loyalty, honor and compassion. The film makers executed a brilliant switch from that story line to which we are accustomed. Instead of making people appear like cool, detached machines, they made machines act like involved, committed human beings. There is a craving amongst people to realize what emotional possibilities they have — to let it all hang out. Each of you is going to have to make a decision for yourself. As you arrange the thousands of pieces in the jigsaw puzzle of your life, will you share yourself with others or will you withdraw? Will you feel or will you hide your emotions? Will you seek self-knowledge or will you keep shifting your self-image and keep playing different roles as a defense against self-knowledge? I hope that no matter what else you do for the rest of your lives, you will glory in your humanity and welcome the risks that are a necessary part of being human. Connect emotionally with others and yourselves because the currents of energy you release will play back through the system of your being, illuminating your self-worth and worthiness.

Le parent francais veut comprendre la correspondance exacte entre les notes en lettres de A F et de a 20 . Le parent americain ne saisit pas bien la precision qui lui parait parfois ridicule des notes chiffrees et se de- mande comment certains professeurs arrivent des notes telles que 7 2 8 ou 6 3 4. D ' autres notes leur paraissent absurdes et illogiques: I ' eleve americain qui recoit le commentaire suivant en composition francaise: excellent devoir, brillamment traite, etc. . . . s ' etonne que la note du profes- seur de litterature francaise ne depasse pas 12 sur 20. Que lui repondre? Si le devoir est reellement excellent, il merite 20 sur 20, a la grande indi- gnation du professeur de Francais qui s ' ecrit: Mais on ne met jamais 20 sur 20 en litterature francaise! Pourquoi pas puisque les devoirs sont notes de a 20, repond le parent sacrilege? Ce 12 (et c ' est tres bien paye, dit le professeur de Francais) correspond dans le systeme americain a un B- ou un qui n ' est pas du tout la marque de 1 ' excellence pour 1 ' ordinateur ame- ricain pret d traduire sans pitie les notes chiffrees en lettres, et a compro- mettre ainsi le passage de notre eleve a 1 ' Universite . Autres differences marquees entre les deux syst mes de notation: le professeur americain est tres genereux lorsqu ' il note, et 1 ' eleve a souvent des A (soit 20 sur 20); le professeur francais est bien plus difficile; apres avoir ete et eleve et professeur dans le systeme francais, je suis personnel- lement parvenue a 1 ' analyse suivante: le professeur francais raisonne ainsi - A est pour le bon Dieu, B pour le professeur et C pour le meilleur eleve de la classe ! Comment repondre a la fameuse question: quelle importance attribuer aux notes? Je pourrais m ' en tirer en repondant une banalite: ce sont les notes dans la vie qui comptent. Beaucoup d ' eleves brillants deviennent des adultes mediocres: 20 sur 20 a 1 ' ecole et sur 20 dans la vie. Le contraire est parfois vrai: nul en classe, fort dans 1 ' ecole de la vie. Mais quitte a me faire malmener et par les professeurs et par les parents que je soumets au carnet de notes mensuelles detaillees, et par les eleves au supplice d ' etre souvent mal payes pour leur travail, personnellement je n ' attribue pas une grande importance aux notes: elles ne sont pas plus qu ' un barometre, pas tres precis, qui nous donnerait une idee assez vague de la performance de 1 ' eleve a un moment donne dans une matiere donnee. Tant de facteurs entrent en ligne de compte ! Le professeur ne m ' aime pas, j ' ecris comme un chat, je fais trop de fautes d ' orthographe , je n ' ai pas pu etudier, je ne me sentais pas bien, le professeur etait mal lune; ou , j ' ai eu du pot , j ' avals relu le chapitre a la recre , j ' ai copie sur un tel, j ' avals mon bouquin ouvert dans mon pupitre , le professeur m ' aime bien . La note donnee par un etre humain, meme le plus integre, est sugges- tive; la note donnee par un ordinateur est froide , denuee de vie. Dans le film La guerre des etoiles, les ordinateurs sont humanises, ils ont une ame, un visage. Dans la vie, 1 ' ordinateur qui corrige un examen se moque de I ' eldve, 11 ne consid re que son travail fait d un moment precis, avec un crayon tres bien taille (no. 2 de preference) - et que le savoir soft avec r eleve. . . peu importe la force. Lorsque j ' etais eleve j ' avals un professeur de Latin qui commencait a nous noter a moins 60 sur 20. Apres deux annees de travail acharne, nous remontions lentement la pente negative de moins 60 a 0; enfin un jour nous arrivions a la note 1 sur 20; le professeur nous serrait la main ce jour-la, nous etions enfin devenus un element positif et 11 nous conside- rait a partir de ce moment- la avec un certain respect. Tous les espoirs nous etaient permis en Latin a condition de continuer a gravir lentement la pente de 1 a 12 ou 13. Au bachot, apres six annees de Latin, nous arrivions a avoir aisement entre 16 a 18 en version et nous etions des forts en theme. Sans tomber dans cet exces de severite, 11 faut s ' efforcer d ' adopter un juste milieu. II est criminel de mettre de mauvaises notes d 1 ' eleve qui fait des efforts et ainsi de le decourager. Les notes punitives sont un chati- ment injustement inflige aux enfants. Le professeur doit s ' assurer avant de noter qu ' il s ' est bien fait clairement comprendre de tous, II faut noter r enfant non pas par rapport aux autres, mais en reconnaissant 1 ' effort fourni et les progres obtenus. Je dirais qu ' il faut le noter par rapport a lui-meme . Quel que soit celui qui corrige 1 ' examen, humain ou mecanique, le plus grand danger a mon avis, s ' il faut qu ' il y ait des notes, c ' est de mettre trop de A. L ' enfant qui a trop de A (surtout s ' il ne les merite pas), s ' arrete de travailler s ' 11 est intelligent. Pourquoi continuer a travailler si de toutes facons il salt que son A lui est garanti? S ' il s ' arrete d ' etudier, il lui est impossible d ' entrer dans une bonne universite et d ' y poursuivre des etudes intelligentes . Get enfant part perdant dans la vie. C est un bien mauvais service que de mettre des A non merites a un eleve; 1 ' enfant doit lutter pour arriver un jour a avoir un A, il doit connaitre le travail acharne et 1 ' effort, L ' eleve qui n ' a que des A non merites non seulement s ' arrete de tra- vailler, mais il devient nul au bout d ' un temps - il se produit un renverse- ment de situation. L ' eleve mediocre devient bon, lui; 1 ' intelligent devient mauvais. C ' est un peu le cas des enfants souvent abandonnes a eux-memes dans des ecoles publiques surpeuplees, ou le cas des eleves trop suivis, trop epaules a la maison, qui ne peuvent rien faire sans I ' appui de leurs parents . Apres la guerre, piusieurs families japonaises vinrent s ' installer aux U.S.A.; las jeunes japonais qui ne connaissaient pas un mot d ' Anglais durent aller dans les ecoles publiques americaines et eurent ensuite, eux, a assumer la responsabilite d ' aider leurs parents alors qu ' ils n ' avaient souvent qu ' entre 15 et 18 ans — ces jeunes jouerent le role de parents pour leurs propres parents, les aidant a survivre dans un pays etranger. Ces jeunes sont aujourd ' hui des professeurs d ' universite et meme des sena- teurs . . . A ces jeunes gens immigrants sans ressources dans un pays etran- ger, qui n ' ont pas eu besoin de 1 ' aide de leurs parents pour reussir d 1 ' e- cole et dans la vie, a ceux-la je mets 20 sur 20 sans hesiter.

BKAM Vice President ;iiiJ Editorial Diivetoi- July 28, 1977 Suzy Hackel 2468 Banyan Drive Los Angeles, California 90049 Dear Suzy; Your letter made me curious as to the word that is used to describe using a yo yo. I looked up yo yo in a number of dictionaries, and the words they use are either spin , wind , or reel. For example, one dictionary describes the action of using a yo yo as spinning it out and reeling it in. Frankly, I ' m not all that happy with what I found. It ' s been many years since I ' ve performed v;ith a yo yo.(l might have written played instead of performed , but I was very serious about my yo yo.) As I remember, the action wasn ' t quite a spin — a top could be accurately described as spinning , but not a yo yo. Winding certainly is part of action in using a yo yo, but it ' s really the first thing you do, and its the preparation for the action, not the action itself. Reeling in the yo yo, to me, might describe the return-to- the-hand part of the movement, but it ' s not an accurate enough phrase to describe for me the entire movement from the time the yo yo leaves the hand to the time it returns, even if we use reeling out and reeling in. Now, that long paragraph above is my reason for concluding that you may have a very good point. Perhaps yo is a good choice as the verb to describe the act of using a yo yo. It might be more descriptive to use the terms yo in and yo out for the two basic moves, the yo yo leaving the hand and then returning. In any case, I must congratulate you on a very interesting letter. Language, after all, is created by people, and changes as the needs of people, and their circumstances, change. I ' m certain that your teachers at the Lycee are very pleased with your appreciation of words, and that your parents are equally proud.

( My Favorite Season Summer is my favorite season, for this I have a very good reason. The sun in the daytime shines ever so bright, And it warms up the sky for a beautiful night. Summer is a time for play. Or learning in a more pleasant way. At le Lycee there is summer school. At home there is a swimming pool. June is the month I like the best. School is out and I can rest. July is the month for celebration, and also a time to plan a vacation. August is the month for sun and sand. And taking a trip to Disneyland. September is the month of preparation, Enrolling in school, and no more vacation. So back to my studies, by books and my gear. And again I ' 11 look forward to summer next year. r m sure you ' 11 agree with my reason, Why summer is my favorite season. yy V a- t Jm i u v vi -,. nN TROISIEME A (de gauche a droite) Premier rang: Mme Dauge , Rene Arambula , Laura Dartnall, Moya Lear.
