The Seventies Crowing up in the seventies has certainly taught us that we live in an unpredictable world. The class of '80 will face many challenges and several difficult decisions will have to be made. Possibly, by looking back, we can learn from the past to help plan for the future. The two biggest events of the past decade were Viet- nam and Watergate. It must be agreed that the effects of the Vietnam experience still affects the country. Many lives were lost; from the 58,000 Americans who had to fight to the students killed at home. The undeclared war has brought division to our society, apathy, hesitancy, and a change in how we are perceived by ourselves and other nations. Watergate stunned the country. The corruption never seemed to end: Agnew, Connally, the Attorney General, and even the President. They were public servants whose job was to represent the citizenry. The distrust of the gov- ernment still remains. Maybe we have learned that we have to inform our- selves on future issues in order to make educated deci- sions. In this way, it may be possible to avoid similar tradgedies. And I get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again —The Who 1972 6
Meeting our energy demands is the most difficult prob- lem that must be faced. Our dependence on imported oil has led to crisis in the Mid-east, inflation, recession, and threaten peace. Perhaps the answer is demand less and conserve more. In a related issue, last March the nation's worst nuclear accident occurred at Three Mile Island near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. It has been leaking radioactive gas ever since. The accident has cast a shadow of doubt over the safety of nuclear power and the future of the nuclear in- dustry. On a brighter note, America celebrated it's bicentennial this decade. Above is a picture of the celebration in New York harbor July 4, 1976. 7
