on the wholes contribution to the part.„ Santa Clara is only a small part of the whole-the outer world, ' outside. Though it sometimes seems to be an ivory tower, the University is in reality a part of the whole and it takes a great deal of its substance, its identity, from the whole. Fall Quarter is the time that students, faculty, and administrators return, bringing new ideas from the outer world. It ' s also the time when freshmen come, the outer world ' s most tangible contribution to the University. And it ' s the time that the whole and the part, the outer world and Santa Clara, meld into each other: through orientation, through the events of the quarter, and through the planning which begins now-planning that results in controversial speakers such as Germaine Greer, Rusty Rhodes, and Moshe Dayan, who bring their insights on the outer world to Santa Clara, planning, both personal and communal, for the people within Santa Clara, and planning for new educational endeavors that will pave the way for the University ' s eventual contribution to the outer world.

ill donn Callaway Uear Mom and Dad: Just a brief note to let you know what has happened since you left me surrounded by 3 suit- cases and 7 boxes of junk on the seventh floor of Swig. Dur- ing the following days. I met a lot of people and started to find my way around. You know that guy who struggled with my lug- gage, he was my orientor. (One of 120 returning students who come back to campus early to help the new students.) On Saturday night, a group of us from the floor went to dinner to- gether in Benson Center--the food was barely edible. Later, I went down to Pipestage, a cof- fee shop in the basement of Graham 100, to hear the Plum Forest Traditional Jazz Band (a ragtime jazz combo)--my orientor tried to get me to join in, but 1 thought it was juvenile. How was Parent Orientation? I think you were as busy as I was. I got taken on a tour of campus, went to an open house in Ben- son Center, the Counseling Cen- ter, Orradre Library, and de Saisset Gallery--also met Dean of Students George Giacomini and Associate Dean Betsy Kovacevich. Remember the mass we attended before you left? They ' re all like that. Fr. Dan Germann, the chaplain, and a group of students coordinated this liturgy. It had such a mellow feeling and everybody really got with it, especially the singing and overall participa- tion. I guess even mass can be enjoyable. We had to wear a coat and tie to a candlelight dinner that night; the orientors seated us, then brought in the food. All the ad- ministrators were introduced by Betsy Kovacevich. Also, the coordinators were presented-- they were the designers of the program under the direction of co-chairpersons Donn Callaway and Greg Dowell with the associate dean as a moderator. Around 9 p.m., a dance got underway in Kennedy Mall. The group, California, was fantastic; halfway through the dance, huge trays of French bread and cheese were brought out for everybody. I
