c LOS ANGELES SAYS KHJ LITTLE ROCK SAYS KAAY CHICAGO SAYS WLS NEW YORK SAYS WABC 1490 Osh’-kosh ? a Letter From 7b_e j JTtor_ This is it-the transformation from yearbook to magazine. The change in format is new and different and we're one of the first schools to try it. And it's all for YOU. We welcome all suggestions, comments, criticisms, or anything else you’d like to say. We do ask that you sign your name and address (if you want it withheld, state so) so we know it’s authentic and sincere; and it’s our policy. We’ve been working on the NEW QUIVER all summer, and I mus: say the red tape was most despairing. With the merger of the state universities into the UW system, the red tape quadrupled. Depression set in. One day we were in business, the next we were not. Thanks to the backing of Mitchell, Dave Crusius, Dr. Gary Coll, and Dr. David Lippert some of the decisionmaking in Madison was accelerated. Finally in August, contract negociations began and things started to work out in our favor. We have no intention of competing with the Advance-Titan or the Wisconsin Review. That’s not our purpose. We want to blend some of the good ideas of yearbook basics with some of the new, creative journalistic techniques to make a meaningful publication. It’s something that you, as a student and an individual person, and the people of the community can relate to. That’s quite a feat to perform. I’d like to introduce an outstanding staff member. This month I have chosen Thomas Edward Davis. When I first met Tom, I was.suprised that such a creative writer was still in school. He could have been working anywhere, as he’s the type of person who is good at almost anyth n . This is because he always tries to do his best. Besides being editor of a poetry magazine, Tom has worked as a publisher consultant, has had his own radio series, worked at a television station, was co-author of a play, has written books, and has had his poetry published in magazines across the nation and in England. He has taught creative writing seminars and has spoken to conventions held by the Wisconsin Regional Writers Association. With this impressive and extensive background in media Tom still came back to school. He enjoys writing creatively and teaching others how U do it. How can an editor afford to pass someone like that? “Life can be very difficult,’’says Davis. “It hasn’t always been so good for me. I’ve worked as a clerk, driven a laundry truck, and have been a carry-out boy in a grocery store.’’ I’ll never forget the time I was fired from Chip’s Hamberger Joint for having a book of poetry on my desk. Can you imagine? Eventually I’d like to stay at home and write, but you 2 have to be an established, well-read author to be able to make a decent living at it,” he said. Tom knows the meaning of competition. His father was runner-up to the World’s Checker Championship, was a boxer, and a semi-profes- -sional baseball player. His younger brother is a chess whiz. This semester Tom is working on a new book entitled TALE OF A WHITE BUCK. He wrote a book of sonnets last semester. “Yes, life can be quite a struggle,” he says, but I also agree with Robert Frost’s poem Birches, that earth’s the right place for love.” P.J.B.

People rise up out of the mists of anonymity, and demand to be noticed, demand to possess the world even if they wear rags for clothes and and laughter for armor to wear in their endless battle with the world... They eat ice cream cones, drink their bottles of dark wine, pipe their individual tunes, stare outward with stoic faces at the world, and swirl off into individual dances inside of the great dance of life. 7 • « And then, suddenly finding themselves alone in the dark beneath a glowing moon on an empty pennisula, they spin out of the circle, and face eternity... photo by tom running 0 course, neither silence nor laughter is the anstfter to all ills, nad different people need different tonics; but the one thing that touches every individual is other people. The hip character wearing the Zodiac jacket, the old man, and the wild horseman with the broken leg are all a part of modern life, a part of the glory and the defeat, the sadness and the happiness; and they all add ingredients to our lives. If you’re feeling like a resident of Babe’s Joint as the year begins get out and look at the people. They are the spice of existence; they are life, m In the hectic frenzy of the beginning of a new year sometimes it’s wise to go down to Menominee Park, sit down, the lake waves as they slip up on the shor silence is sometimes beautiful; and long, vation of the soul... Sometimes too, laughter can act like a rude tonte breaking upon the e evening and making rejoicing } W public and private at the same time. It can reach down into the heart of self, and spread abroad like ripples from the force of a both ways it is ing and human, oym the midst of everyday grayness... to There is something special about the thunder of living. The driving, the intenseness, the humor, the joy surfaces again and again. Puppy's eat ice cream cones, bands try to fuse their music with lightning, and man continually strives to hear music beyond music, laughter beyond laughter, and joy beyond joy... 13 C An interview with Crusius, Mitchell and Guiles Mark Mitchell, O.S.A. President Is the Enemy Entrenched in Dempsey ? I don’t think of the Dempsey administration as the enemy. I think the administration has to be broken down into individuals. It’s wrong to accuse all the administration of being anti-student or anti-people. There are certain individuals, however, who could better serve in positions that would not relate to students or affect student lives. At the top you have Roger Guiles. Now I firmly believe that Dr. Guiles is not the bad guy that everyone makes him out to be. My limited contact with Dr. Guiles has been one of guarded friendship. He honestly tries to do what he thinks is best for students. Obviously what he thinks is best for students and what is really best for students is two different things; but I think you have to give him credit for attempting to do what he thinks is best. Then you get down to the second level with Dr. White, Dr. Picht, and Dr. Ramsden. Dr. White probably has more relation with students than any of the rest of them. He is not actually a bad guy; but I don’t think he’s the kind of guy you could really rely on to get things done for you. If you thought it was important enough to spend the time and effort to go and talk to him I think you would have to follow up on it to make sure it was done. It’s really hard to pass judgement on Dr. Picht because he is in his position as a man whose major concern is effi-cency and money. He doesn’t have a lot of contact with students, and when he does have contact he comes across as being impersonal which, considering his position, is not good. Anyone in his position should be of the caliber of person who could work with students. Dr. Ramsden is head of Academic Affairs which In large portion is what the university is all about. I am firmly of the opinion that he is just not aware of the needs of students. Not that he is purposely trying to get anyone. I think it’s just that he’s ignorant of the real facts, and of the requirements of students in terms of academic affairs. In terms of replacing Dr. Guiles I think one would have to take into consideration what the alternatives are. As of right now he has supported OSA rather enthusiastically. I would prefer to have someone who is younger, more energetic in his pursuit of student rights, and who is more suitable to working with students; but the problem is that the job itself limits the availability of such a person. The requirements of the job limit the position to people who are administrators, and not to people who are good at working with people. There is a difference. There doesn’t have to be, but generally there is. This will probably be the last year for Dr. Guiles, and I assume a committee will be set up during the year to search and screen applicants for the Chancellor position. I think their job will be a hard one in that Dr. Guiles, in his total years at Oshkosh, has been a relatively good Chancellor. He came here in 1959 and the student enrollment has grown tremendously under his leadership. Dr. Ramsden could be replaced rather easily. A man in his position has got to be responsible. I don’t think it is a question of: Can someone do a better job? The position of Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs by job title alone limits itself to a person who is aware of the academic needs and requirements of students. Things have changed a lot in the last twenty years. The whole educational process has changed, and I think Oshkosh is behind in terms of academic growth and programs. I think a lot of the confusion, a sort of lapse of time, has occurred because of Dr. Ramsden’s office. He should be replaced by someone who is more aware more responsible. I’m not aware of the makeup of the search and screen com-m ittee except that both faculty and students will be on the committee. Faculty will be chosen by the Faculty Senate, and students will be chosen by the Executive Board of OSA with the approval of the Senate. These people will in effect do the searching and screening; but the final decision rests with the Board of Regents. In as much as there has been a recent merger I would assume that the person preferred right now by the Board of Regents would be someone who has been an important member of the Old Chapter 37 institutions, the old Wisconsin State University system. The Board of Regents probably have a number of candidates they would like to see on the list of possible Chancellors for Oshkosh; but as of right now it is hard to say what effect the committee’s recommendation would have or how dictatorial the Board of Regents are likely to be. Obviously the type of man who is needed for this position should be a very strong leader, one who can make decisions, but who is not adamant that he make all the decisions. He has to be someone who can listen to the students and faculty, and he has to be able to understand what these people are talking about. I also think continued on page 59 16 Mark Mitchell, OSA president for this year, is beginning to look like one of the most controversial student presidents in Oshkosh history. He is outspoken, honest, and fluent, and he does-n’t seem to fear man or beast. One note on the interview is that he has told the New Quiver office several times since the interview was recorded on tape that he meant to deal more firmly with Dr. Ramsden and less harshly with Dr. White. He believes that Dr. White is the most cooperative administrator in Dempsey. Dave Crucius is a student, and also Oshkosh Common Councilman Many claim that he is the most powerful student on Surprisingly enough, in his conversation comes across as a cautious, thoughtful, and shy man. His emotions always seem close to the surface, and his manner 1s quiet and de-Sometimes he’ll make a shocking and the significance of the statement is lost because of the muted tone of his nature. Dave Crusius, Councilman War, Peace, and Crusius My Interest In politics came about because of my experience in Viet Nam. A lot of veterans and myself went over there putting a lot of trust in the government. I enlisted in the Marine Corps because I thought those “slanteyed bastards” ( I use the phrase in quotes. That was where I was at a couple of years back, sorrowfully enough) ought to be taught a lesson for playing games with the United States. I got over there and served with the third division up on the DMZ, and saw a lot of things that didn’t agree with me. I saw the indiscriminate bombing, the little Mai Lais, and it opened up my eyes. A civil war is going on over in Viet Nam, nothing more and nothing less. It ought to be determined by the Vietnamese. I felt that I was used by the country. Then I came back and saw a lot of things that I didn’t see before: the many inequities of our system. The ghettos, police brutality, and starvation; and I decided a lot of these things have to be changed. The way to change them is through either education, the slower method, or law and politics. Politics is the quickest way to facilitate change. Internationally I see the United States running around as a big, spoiled giant. It tries to protect its interests by following a lot of outmoded theories including the domino, the trip-wire, and containment theory. These all originated with the red scare back in the early fifties with Joe McCarthy. I can’t see Communism as the number one enemy. I wouldn’t want to see Communism in the U.S., but if it works in other countries, I think those countries ought to decide which way they are going. I don’t buy the idea that the two major powers have been following: a form of detante, a show -down competition with one another. I’d like to see countries live together, and throw out everything that has to do with war. I don’t think war is necessary. You cannot bring about change through war. There are things wrong with the Communistic system. The most obvious is its limitations on individual freedoms. Everything is for the whole. Everything is for the nation. That is a completely screwed up idea. Dike the idea of complete freedom of expression as guaranteed in the Constitution. Sometimes in the U.S. limitations are too drastic. There are a lot of limitations that are fascist in nature. Among them is the recent Supreme Court decision which allows radicals or the people in organized crime to be convicted with a simple majority of jurors instead of the full Iy twelve. That is a breakdown in our system The way the U.S. approaches many of its internal problems is completely wrong. The general attitude around the U.S. where people do not accept opinions that are contrary to the status quo is something that people ought to be concerned about. The U.S. is not an out and out fascist country in the sense that Germany or Italy was. Its fascism is more subtle. This society by its very nature represses anything, be it ideas or people, that is outside or not acceptable to the group norm— Middle America. It doesn’t have to use military and government. We don’t have to limit a person’s freedom. I should have the right to do what I want to do when I want to do it so long as I am not imposing on you. If I want to walk around the house in the nude, I should have the right to walk in the nude. I have the right to swing my hand at you as long as I stop right before your face. I have not really harmed you. This is where the only limitation ought to be: if I harmed you. There is a higher truth that has to be followed by the President, Senators, and Congressmen. The truth may be relative, but I feel there are universal truths. Among them is the love of mankind and the truth of justice--not just law and order, but justice. We should respect another person whether he is black or yellow or red or white. We’re all brothers and sisters. We’re human beings first, men or women second, and citizens of the United States or Russia third. We have to remember that we’re all the same. We’re really just one. In the Presidential race, the way it stands now, I think McGovern will be better than Nixon. At least he has a sense of humanity. I just hope he doesn’t do a lot of word-eating. I hope he remembers who got him the nomination, and doesn’t all of a sudden start playing politics. Deciding that we’ve got to have labor, industry, and party boss support is insane. McGovern can’t realistically discount these people, but I don’t think he has to draw them with compromises. Making concessions in order to get this group or that is something that ought to be gotten away from. If McGovern appeals to people on an individual basis, a small group basis, fine, but I can’t see anybody selling his soul. Politics on the whole is one hell of a struggle. There are so many groups that want to be represented that it is impossible to represent them all. What it comes down to on key issues is following your own conscience. In the final analysis you have to define what is right and wrong, which stands to take, and which ones not to. One thing that pretty much irritates me is that I see a lot of people sit on the fence, continued on page 58 Dr. Roger Guiles, Chancellor A University needs to be Sensitive . . . I graduated from Platteville (which at that time was a State Teacher’s College) after having had some work in pre-engineering at another school. Following that I taught math and science very briefly. Prior to going to Platteville in 1924 as a Dean I was involved in public school administration inSuper-ior. After having been at Platteville for 17 years, I was invited to accept the presidency of this university. Both my masters and doctorate are from the University of Wisconsin where my emphasis was on higher education. During my 17 years at Platteville I was given a special assignment which involved a study of higher education in Wisconsin for the Board of Regents, and which ultimately became a report to the legislature focusing on the role of state teacher colleges, and the direction in which they should be developing. When I started putting all the facts together I realized that Oshkosh was particularly well situated to develop into a strong university. This was true because of its population base, its location, and its strong liberal arts tradition. Also as a part of that report we made a number of rather important recommendations which were later implemented by acts of legislature in the sessions which followed. We recommended, for example, that these institutions become multipurpose institutions rather than single purpose institutions. We also recommended they become involved in student service programs like counseling, and provide housing and food services for students. I think an idea has to be inherently sound or it will never be brought to fruition. I don’t think an individual or a small group of individuals can create a strong institution until certain 20 elements are present. One of the important factors to keep in mind is that a strong multipurpose institution tends to add strength to each segment of that institution. In other words, our School of ’Education, which has been a strong institution in terms of Teacher Education over a period of many years, is today stronger because we have a strong School of Letters and Science. If you’re going to have a multi-purpose institution, this type of strength, you need to be able to offer students a great many different fields of study. This becomes practical only in a situation where you have a large enrollment. So one of the concerns I’ve had from the beginning, and one of the concerns that has been shared by many others on campus, is the desire to make this university responsive to the needs of the university’s growing population. There is one other very important factor in the building of a multi-purpose complex. An institution is no stronger than its faculty. But if you’re seeking strong, well-qualified people , especially in a time of strong competition as existed back in the fifties, it becomes necessary to offer such persons an opportunity to work in the field where they are well qualified. A strong faculty member has no desire to become a jack-of-all-trades, to teach subjects in which he or she has had little preparation. At Oshkosh we have been able to attract faculty members because we have been able to provide them with an opportunity to work in area specialization. All of this accrues to the benefit of the student because he in turn is able to have at his disposal persons who are well qualified. It’s been especially gratifying to me and many others to note that even the new schools, the School of Nursing and School of Business Administration, have won so much recognition. For example, the School of Business Administration, is only 7 years old. At the end of five years it was accredited by the National Collegiate School of Business. Normally a five year period is the very minimum amount of time required for consideration by the accrediting agency. This is rather good evidence that this university has genuine strength. Similarly, the School of Nursing, which is about the same age, has been accredited nationally and locally, and has won much recognition. I cite this because I believe it’s important for students to be assured they’re spending their time in a university program which has recognition in the marketplace. I believe very strongly that the university needs to be sensitive to the needs of students, and that all of us need to be concerned with the relevancy of the program we're offering. I also believe the university ought to be a place where students of limited economic ability may be able to advance themselves, and prepare for the demanding situations they’re almost certain to confront. My own experience with students has been very pleasant. This may seem a little strange to some people, but it’s true. As I look at students today I sense a very serious concern about life. This is not a result of a change in students, but a growing awareness of the world in which they live, and the kind of competition they are going to face. We’re bringing to the university a much broader spectrum of student abilities, interests, and career goals. continued on page 25 1959. Roger Guiles has been President and Chancellor of the University of Wisconsin- Oshkosh since His term of office has; been both exciting and controversial. Enrollments have skyrocketed, and new educational philosophies have gained popular acceptance. Usually Dr. Guiles is pictured as a dark and sinister conservative by students. No one would dare think of him in liberal terms. Still, this interview, while picturing a man who believes in the importance of details, reveals a side to Dr. Guiles that few people realize exists. A few of his ideas are certainly liberal, and some sound as if they could have come from either Mark Mitchell or Dave Crusius. Members : D. Carley N. Christianson R. Dahlstrom J. Dixon C. Gelatt O.

Marlent The a dm listrative structure of thv. merged state university and University of Wisconsin is complex and confusing. The following charts trace the flow of power downward from the President of the combined systems to the department chairmen of this university. The names of the individuals who partially control student livos are included down to the coordinators of the various academic schools. The general affect of the recent merger has sofar been a tremendous Increase in both paperwork and the Dean of Graduate School E. Pyle amount of time needed for requisition requests to be denied or approved. Requests which were at one time acied upon in a matter of weeks are now running into numerous complications. Madison has become the center of the whole system, as the charts point out, and sometimes up to eight or nine people are Involved in making one decision. When the decision is a highly Important one the number of people involved in the final approval or disapproval mushrooms. The jury must wait for more evidence before a Judgement can bo handed down on the merged system, but right now the mass of faceless names and tangle of lines tracing the structure of power appear to have complicated further the lives of those Involved with the UNIVERSITY SYSTEM. yumttzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz by elTen jvaTte Can bike thieves really pedal that fast ? The bicycle population on this campus is increasing every semester. This fall students have returned from the summer with brand new ten speeds, five speeds, and various other newfangled bikes. Needless to say, Schwinn and the other bike companies are making their mint off the students, but so are some other people, namely bicycle thieves. It does not upset me that bike companies are making so much money today. For years nobody .but grade school kids, factory workers and physical fitness fanatics rode the things. The local bike shop was not the place to visit unless you needed a tricycle for the kid. Today, people are more pollution conscious and fad conscious. Riding a bike is fun. A good one can get you anywhere in a relatively short length of time with little effort. A “beater can get you across the city, to the local bar, or to school. Bike thieves are spoiling the sport of biking with numerous thefts in the city. Lately they have been partial to ten-speeds of all makes, all ages. No place is sacred to a bicycle thief; no front porch, no door, no parking lot, no spot on campus will stop these deceitful, underhanded tricksters. A lock and chain, no matter what the manufacturers say, cannot stop the bolt cutters these people employ. A bike thief can be anybody--your best friend, your fraternity brother, the local freak. Three years ago, on a balmy spring night, I got hauled down to the police station with my boyfriend. He was a bike thief, and I did not even realize that the blue ten-speed he was riding was not his. The police gave both of us a real grilling, trying to find out if I was in on it, if he had stolen any more, and if we were just generally degenerate. He went to trial a few weeks later, and got thirty days in jail without the option of a fine; at the time I thought the sentence was too harsh; today after talking with all sorts of people who have had their bikes ripped off this summer, including me, I have to admit that bike thieves deserve a bit harsher treatment. How can these people get away with it? Most common thieves are caught within a week, maybe a month. Well, if any of you have had your bike stolen and reported it to the local police, you already know why they get away with it. The police know the problem exists, and that it exists way out of proportion to any other type of theft in the city. Because my bike was worth about $150, the person committed a felony when he stole it. This makes no difference to the force of blue men; they don’t even do a convincing job of sympathizing with you. The man I talked with said they thought a truck was picking up bikes in the city and transporting them to other 24 cities where they sell them. Do they do anything about this information they have? No! The problem is too big, they explained, which is precisely why they should do something. No contact is made with other cities, no man on the force is assigned into this special area. They just file a report in a cabinet that is never opened until the insurance men call for the information. Perhaps if the police would crack down on the bike thieves these people would not be so open and so cocky about their business. Have you ever noticed the thefts that the “Oshkosh Daily Northwestern reports in their daily issue? “Lady’s purse, with $45 stolen from car, “$25 baby stroller, “fishing tackle worth $100 stolen from three garages, are typical examples. Never, and I mean never are the thefts of bikes reported. Now I do not know if this is the fault of the paper, who does not think that the rash of thefts is very important since it centers on the student community, or the fault of the police department who bury the reports so deep that nobody can find them when reporters come around. Somebody is goofing it up, though. Publicity on this issue could do wonders for making people aware that this problem exists. I don’t think enough people realize there is this problem. The reason I don’t think people know this problem exists is evidenced in the careless manner that people lock their bikes here on campus. People, at least try to protect your bikes. Little eighth of an inch aluminum chains are not good protection for hundred doUar bikes. A chain-lock combination that is on the market which has hardened steel all the way through, is sLx feet long, and unbreakable by any bolt cutter, is the type of protection needed right now. Unfortunately this chain costs twenty dollars at the local hardware store. The chains that a bike shop sells are not good enough since they have hardened steel only on the outside; the insides are soft and easily cut. If you have a short chain lock the back tire around something stationary since this is the tire that the thieves want, if they can’t have the whole thing. I have heard rumors concerning a vigilante group that is forming or will be forming in the near future to try to get rid of these rats. I do not condone people taking the law into their own hands when an organized police force is able to handle community problems. However, the police have been ignoring this problem for too long now, and it Is time that something be done. People, this is a call to arms to become aware of the problem, to do something about it because nobody else is going to do it. Get off your bicycle seats! continued from page 20 As we do this we become less homogenous in terms of student interests, abilities, etc., and it becomes imperative that we provide a type of program which is good for the individual student. When I say this I am not talking about watering down the program. As I see it the most able student ought to be given apro-gram that starts where he is, however high that is, and which provides a genuine challenge for him. Hopefully the university will be able to provide a program which will be good for the individual. We talk a lot about mass education, but as far as Pm concerned that’s a misnomer. You don’t educate masses; you educate individuals. Of course, an institution or university does not move forward because of an individual. It moves forward because a great many people are willing to work together. In the past at Oshkosh the situation has been particularly favorable for progress. We’ve had good support from the legislature and the Board of Regents, enthusiastic support from faculty, and certainly the administrators have been dedicated. Along with all of this we have had a student body that wants to move ahead. After considering all the elements that have been involved , and the team work that has beer, necessary, I’m pleased we can say that this university is recognized as a strong institution by people outside of Oshkosh. When I came here we had no counseling department. We had one teacher who was giving some attention to counseling, but we had no counseling center. At the present time we have the largest counseling center in the former state university system. I think this is important because students who come to the campus need to be able to go to someone who is truly interested in helping them achieve their objectives. When I came here we had one physician who spent two hours a day on campus administering to emergency needs of students. As the student body is well aware, today we have a staff of five full-time M.D.s with supporting nurses and clerical help. Along with all this, in 1959 when I came here, we were completing the first section of the student union. Since that time the union has been expanded to three times its original size. Food service centers have been developed, and other related programs have been made available to students. Early in my presidency we also recognized that students sometimes have special learning needs or handicapping disabilities. Because of that realization a reading clinic has been developed during the last ten years. It is quite unique in the state, and as competently staffed as any you’d find in the Midwest. We could also mention the testing center which really is an adjunct to all the things we’ve been talking about. From that standpoint I believe we can say with all modesty that we have moved farther in this direction than most universities in the country and certainly farther than anyone else in our own state system. One erf the most unhappy experiences I’ve had in all of higher education is the experience of a few years ago when black students became involved in activities that led to disap-disappointments all around. I’m sure it was a disappointment to hem, and it led to great disappointment for us. Because I believe very strongly that higher education has to be for everybody, I think we must find ways and means of helping students who have special needs. I find it personally difficult to separate human beings in categories. As far as I’m concerned everyone is a human being, and everyone should have certain priveleges and opportunities. I believe that different groups may very well have special needs and problems, but this is true not only of the so-called minority, but also of those who in the past have been passed over and sluffed aside. I believe we must find ways of opening doors for any student who has special problems or a culture which ought to be preserved. We are basically a pluralistic society. The university experience should not make our society less pluralistic, but help each person become what he is capable of becoming. We are enriched by the multiplicity of cultures that we have the privilege to enjoy. This nation has become strong because people of all ethnic and national groups brought with them their hopes and aspirations. I suspect that if my philosophy has changed over the years, it has changed at a rate that has not been very percept able. However, I think that one’s interpretation of the situation does change. Going back to my early college days, things were seemingly very well settled. We had a feeling that if we developed certain skills and abilities there would be an assignment in life for us. We felt very comfortable pursuing the academic goals of the classroom. This was in a world that had not started to change as rapidly as it has since World War n. As a result of that change I have become aware that we cannot prepare today for something that will be adequate ten or twenty years from now. We are living in a world which makes changing demands upon the individual. So while my philosophy has not changed--I’ve always believed that education ought to serve the individual--the way in which education ought to serve the individual has changed greatly over the last few years. When I was appointed president in 1959 I had very little time to think about my new position. I was invited to a board meeting on June 10, and somewhat to my surprise, two hours later I was told that the public was being advised of my transfer to Oshkosh.

Thomas Davis MEMORY a memory of rain in a night when the wind filled and spread the sky a rain upon us and thru us, on sounds little known as feet of deer, a rain falling between us, upon two voices almost heard above the wind. by Ethel Davis 26 Business falling ... s Advertise in I The New Quiver Call for information: 424-1152 What Makes a Good Teacher ? To some students Watson Parker is an evil conservative who would prefer cleanliness and good sense to flashes of the most brilliant genius. He makes students in his classes work hard, and at first turns his more hip pupils off by wearing a bow tie and a crew cut in this day of unbuttoned shirts and long hair. In many ways he looks like a teacher from the dark ages, or at least the 1950’s, who will bore you with long lists of facts and a monotone voice. The facts are that he is conservative, he believes that “the most important thing in teaching is to get the students to master the substance and details of the subject before the y begin to theorize about it, and he is one of the best instructors on campus. His lectures are always filled with fire and wit, and though he often upsets students with his unabashed philosophy on life in general, a good portion of the time lie actually manages to teach something. The secret of his success seems to be a hard headed realism. He asks a lot from his students, and he believes that “teaching is like raising cabbages. Some of your vegetables just aren’t ever going to sprout, and a teacher has to learn to live with the fact that he can’t teach everything to everybody that finds his way into his classroom.” His art is one of gardening. He nurtures students that are learning, and gives them a chance to work on their own, but if the nurturing fails, he doesn’t act as if the world (either his or theirs) has ended. A typical semester in Parker’s class can include up to ten required one page papers, five or six classroom lectures, reading in eight to ten books, and a lot of discussion. The pace is hectic and a few students drop out along the way, but those who finish normally have the satisfied feeling of a- • omplishment. His lecturing style in courses like the ‘Trans-Mississippi West’ or his sophomore surveys of American history is flamboyant and entertaining. Usually the lecture material is not taken from the textbook, but deals instead with a subject that Parker feels competent enough in to handle with an extra dash of flair. He never tries to fool the students into believing that he knows something that he knows nothing about, and he always makes an effort to be pleasant, “and to suffer fools gladly.” Possibly the best thing to be learned from Parker is that good instructors cannot be stereotyped. Inevitably a good teacher has a personality that sets him apart from his fellows and makes him stand out. His demanding style may upset some students in his classes, but for the majority he is exciting and effective. Some of the best advice about teaching that he ever got, he likes to confide with a wry chuckle, came from the battle-scarred principal of a public school in the Bronx, advice which he tends to apply more metaphorically than literally. “Watson,’ said this old beldame, ‘never turn your back on the little bastards.” Wisconsin The Fall issue will be on sale in mid-October. Single issue .... 75 Annual Student Subscription Rate 4 issues .... $2.00 27 Isn’t it time for UW-0 to hire an Ombudsman? Isn’t it time for UW-O to hire an Ombudsman? The biggest problem that students face while attending the University is finding out how to solve program and teacher problems. There is no one on campus that has enough power and guts to cut through the red tape and attack the roots of the problem. Instead there are several administrators on campus whose official job is to help students with their problems, but whose real job is to fill out three or four dozen forms every week. Considering the amount of paper work required of Department Chairmen and Coordinators, it is a miracle that they manage to find time to talk to students at all. No one can blame them if they are sometimes short with students and unsympathetic. The pressures of the job are intense and complicated, and unfortunately, they are only human and not supermen. What this and other universities need is two Ombudsmen who have enough power and guts to cut through red tape, and who do not fill out forms. A few universities in the United States like Northern Illinois University have instituted an Ombudsman into their bureaucratic structure, but unfortunately their positions rarely fill the actual needs of students. The Ombudsman's job is to solve student problems and to intervene in conflicts that threaten the student’s college success. Ideally he should be able to investigate any faculty member, student, student organization, or administrator on campus and report his findings to the Chancellor of the university; or, if the Chancellor is being investigated, he should be required to report his findings to the Board of Regents. The major problem with the Ombudsman position as now instituted at these universities is that he is just another paper administrator deluged with forms to fill out. He has to justify his every action on paper and keep a running record of his dealings with students. Obviously, this makes most Ombudsmen glorified Coordinators. To be actually effective the Ombudsman has to be freed from all but the most basic paperwork. He has to be able to listen and talk to students during the morning or afternoon and investigate problems brought to him the rest of the time. The present Coordinators are doing an excellent job in their positions. We do not need more administrators. We need someone who is free from administrative tasks. Of course, the Ombudsman’s power should be limited. He should not be allowed to become the most important man on campus. However, he has to have enough power to be effective. In the original concept which was developed by Denmark, the Ombudsman was seen as a representative of the people. As the major representative of the people he was to have enough power to correct any problem within Denmark. The University Ombudsman should be a representative of students. Obviously students should not control the whole university. Therefore the Ombudsman should be an advisor rather than a dictator. His recommendations should be weighed carefully, but the Board of Regents should have the final say. Preferably working with the university, the Ombudsman should be an elected Student Ombudsman whose specific job would be to solve disputes between students and student organizations and government. Last year’s election is a specific example of the need for a student Ombudsman. He could have investigated the election irregularities, found out who was responsible for them, and then reported his findings to the Student Court so that they could hand down a judgement from a position of knowledge rather than from a position of assumption. He should investigate student-teacher disputes along with the University Ombudsman and make a separate report and recommendation. Both of these Ombudsmen should have a secretarial staff to fill out forms necessary for any university job and handle all other administrative problems. This is the key to the Ombudsman pro -posal. Without such help the offices are useless. The problem of red tape at Oshkosh has gotten out of hand. Dozens of students every year fail to graduate on time because of some minor problem that could easily have been solved. Also there are too many disputes and hassles that are not necessary. Hopefully a University and Student Ombudsman can be hired before next fall. Perhaps the University can then get down to the job of educating and get out of the business of argument and obstruction. “I really have no complaints about university students or the university itself. The neighbors are always complaining about the noise but I never hear any and we have five college students living right next door to us. I think some of them are resentful of the kids because they don't understand them or the need for higher education. Of course, if they aren’t griping about the kids, they’re screaming about the tax burden the university represents. “My husband has college kids working for him--they’re very dependable all the time. “My kids were petrified the day that the Black students caused trouble at the university because the police were in their school yard. The kids still get scared when they see college students now. “My only complaint is the noise on Friday nights; sometimes it gets pretty bad. “We participate in campus activities--we’re planning on seeing Johnny Cash if we can get “I can’t say anything about the university- tickets. it really hasn’t affected me. “I envy the kids today (and I’m not that old!). If I were going to college right now, I’d be the same way. “I don’t think they should have built the university within the city; they should have had enough foresight to build it on the edge of the city. “I’ve only lived in Oshkosh for three years, but the university and its students have never given me any cause for concern. I have always found the students as considerate and helpful as they can be. You might say they are even more considerate than a good portion of the local residents.” Is there a real problem between the university and the community? If so, how much of one? Is there a communication gap between city and university people for which anyone is to be blamed? What can be done to solve these problems and to bring university-community ties closer together? Read through this researched story to discover how various people, both of the university and the community, answer these questions. In the first part of the story are comments made by local housewives and laborers in in chance interviews. 30 by kay bloechel University-Cojnmunity Relations OPINION POLL OF 20 BUSINESSMEN QUESTION_______________________________________ANSWERS 1.

In addition to voicing feelings on the existing relations, the interviewees give some unique suggestions for improving relations between the university and the community. Dr. David Olson of the UW-Oshkosh English Department has taught in four or five other university communities and feels that the problem between the university and the community is no worse here than in any other community. In an interview with him he stated, There isn’t too much concrete evidence of tension between the university and the community, but I personally feel ill-at-ease occasionally in my role as a faculty meml er.” A common stereotype notion of the university people cited by Dr. Olson is that of alien characters” who draw suspicion from community members. He emphasized this idea as an over-simplification. Because he works in politics quite a bit, Dr. Olson tends to play down his university role to allay any suspicions that might interfere with his political work. Expounding further on the idea of community suspicion of university people, Dr. Olsontrledto articulate on that ill-at-ease feeling that he and many other university people occasionally have. As he sees the situation, the community views university people as shipped-in” people who come from all over the country when the university Is in session. Whereas the university people seem like newcomers In Oshkosh, the community, generally speaking, are ‘oldtimers,’ and, as Dr. Olson said, to the city people we are still serving an apprenticeship in the community.” He went on to say that because university people are easily organized, community members feel the university can too easily take over the community to make it as they feel it should be. Dr. Olson does not readily agree with this theory. He does not feel that a goal of the university is to re-make the community. Although Dr. Olson feels that the community benefits from university participation in community affairs, he thinks that an even greater participation in community-university affairs events. He said some general criticisms of university people are often Dr. David Olson warranted, and he sometimes gets annoyed with those students and professors who display laziness and a lack of responsibility and involvement. Activities which could use a greater student involvement, such as the Day Care Center, Boy Scouts, and 3lg Brothers, were cited by Dr. Olson. Additional suggestions given by Dr. Olson for improving relations between the university and commjnity include that of the university giving encouragement to community members to enroll in courses at the university. Dr. Olson feels that this is the best way for community people to see what the university situation really is. He thinks, too, that more events like Sawdust Daze,’’held this past summer for both the community and the university, would be effective in bringing the two together while the university is in session. A final idea for promoting interaction between the community and the university cited by Dr. Olson concerns a published resource list of faculty members who are willing to extend their services to the community. Since he seem o think that a resource sheet is a good idea if utilized, and because it seems ther .j is not wide knowledge of the resource sheet, it was investigated and substantiated. R was discovered that the flrsl booklet was published in May, 1972, upon the request of various community members. The booklet was published by the Office of Communications Services at the university, and is available in the Public Information Office in Dempsey Hall. Other locations from which the free booklet may be obtained by the public include the Oshkosh Area Chamber of Commerce, the Oshkosh Public Library, and the Oshkosh awl Lourdes High Schools. In essence, the People Resources” booklet is a listing of faculty personnel with specialized skills or knowledge available for service in the community on a civic or professional basis. The stated purpose of the booklet is “a venture in community-university relations and in the cross-utilization of available talents for the betterment of the community and the university.” Further stated is the hope that in the coarse of events a similar listing of community persons who can offer service to university projects and disciplines will be compiled.” Paine Art Center Director, Ralph Bufano was at one time president of the student body at Minnesota University. Because of his exposure to univorsity-cbmmunity relations, and of the understanding he gained of the problems in a universitytowm, he said that he does not know of any university town that is perfect. Generally, there is a greater influx of new people at a university where change can be initiated at a faster pace, whereas the locality is usually slower to change. The university tends to be more liberal than the community that it is in, and this causes friction between the two. However, Bufano feels the liberal university moves the community forward and that this is desirable and necessary. According to Bufano there is a lot that can be done tobringthc community and the university together and he cites the Paine Art Center as a prime example. As he views the Paine Art Center, it is a neutral ground for a meeting Ralph Bufano place between the university and the community. Both the university and community people feel at home coming here to see art shows,” he said. He explained that this is because the Paine Art Center and Arboretum are not connected to either the city or the university, but are privately endowed. The city of Oshkosh is fortunate to have the university here because of its contributions in the field of art,” Bufano stated. Between Reeve Memorial Union and the Prie'oe Art Gallery at the university, the community and the university can see contemporary art, whereas in the past this was impossible. In addition, the Paine Art Center works in cooperation with the university to present art programs such as the Centennial Fine Arts Symposium and Exhibitions in 1971. Las year the Paine Art Center offered the university art students their facilities for painting and drawing models during the day in an attempt to organize a class which was eventually to draw the university and the community together. However, no one took advantage of the opportunity, thus indicating a lack of Interest in, or necessity of, such a program, Bufano said. Mr. Bufano feels the Paine Art Center has found its role in the community and is filling cul-tura! need for both the university and the community. The Art Center is unique and fulfills a need that no one else can in the state. It brings historically impor’ant shows and decorative arts to the MUwest. Currently the Art Center Is trying to organize a monthly show with the university television station, and Bufano hopes also to bring music programs to the Art Center. Dr. John Check Dr. John F. Check is well known as a member of the Educational Psychology Department, and as a musician. He feels that Ills avocation of music (“John Check and the Wisconsin Dutchmen”) allows him a good cross-sectional view of the community because it allows him to interact with Individuals of all walks of life. He feels the com-mun'iy, in general, views the university in a favorable manner. He adds, however, that a portion of the townspeople see the university, its professional staff, and the students as an undos ir able element of “their city. Dr. Check sees the students as an interesting addition to the community. He feels that even the segment of the community which views the students as “outsiders is at least made a-ware, through the presence of the university, that there are people who have customs and mores different from their own. Dr. Check believes that a professional should make a major contribution to the community. In practice, he personally has delivered talks, conducted seminars, and lectured in his local church. He thinks that the uni-should extend a genuine welcome to the community with the idea that the university is here to help ami that it wants to cooperate with the members of the community. According to Dr. Chock, community-university relations would bo enhanced if a segment of the faculty rid themselves of their superior feelings and attitudes, and learn to communicate with persons of all levels of education and social status. In conclusion, he says “Until we respect others we should not expect cfhors to respect us. JoscrS H. Sayrs, City Editor of the Oshkosh Dally Northwestern, feels that the Oshkosh citizens are mellowing in their attitude toward the 11,000, sometimes long-haired college youths who annually Invade the community. According to Mr. Sayrs this chaige in attitude is due, in part, to the great economic boom which the students bring with them. The cultural benefits which the university offers the town are obviously underutilized, comments Mr. Sayrs. These cultural offerings, available to the general public at a minimal cost, are beginning to be appreciated. Commenting on the university’s addition to the City Council, Mr. Sayrs said Crusius is an “attractive, reasonable human being who really hasn’t hurt too much or helped too much. To summarize his feelings, Mr. Sayrs said that the path to understanding is difficult for both sides, and in order to reach a happy medium both the town and the university must give in a little bit. Joeseph Sayrs Because of her demanding positions as a teacher and as Chairman of the English Department at the new Oshkosh North High School, Mrs. Gladys Veide-manis feels that she can best Judge university-communltyre-lations by comparing relations between the high school and the university. Since this Is the first year that there will be two local high schools, most of the comments made by Mrs. Veidemanls refered to Oshkosh High School (now Oshkosh West High School) where she was Chairman of the English Department. Mrs. Veidemanls would like to sco the high schools and the university become a Joint enter- prise, one of systematic involvement in academic, communication. Generally, slw said, there has been a great willingness from the university faculty to donate their services for lecturing at the high school, ‘all too often, though, much off the cooperation between the high schools and the university de- Mrs Gladys Veidemanis pends on the Initiative of ooo or two people.’ She went on to say that she sometimes is a little hesitant to ask university people to lecture, feeling that often some faculty members will not contribute what they can unless asked. Because she senses a lack of articulation between the high school and the university, Mrs. Veidemanis believes that a resource list of faculty who are willing to extend their services to the high school would prove helpful. She continued, saying that ‘I wish, too, that there were more people who could talk up the positive ness of the university.’ Although Mrs. Veidemanis thinks that more interaction is needed between the high schools and the university, she noted that ‘there are some very beautiful people who have given, given, given to the high school.’ As examples she cited the UW-Oshkosh Theater Department, all members having been cooperative in lecturing and in play presentations, and Clifford Wood, of UW-Qshkosh Extended Services, who has been one of the major coordinators in the Summer Symposium series. She further cited those university faculty members who last year gave generously of their time In organizing and presenting the year-long World Rcllg-ous Seminar at Oshkosh High School. ‘I really miss community-university oriented activities In the summer; maybe the problem Is that pubUcations of activities aren't always effective, but the summers are astonishingly barren.’ During the school year she would like to see the high schools function more as a free laboratory experience for the university to experiment with. Overall public relations would improve if the university could share experimental productions In the art fields of movies, plays, films, and others with high school students and faculty. She added that a situation in which the high schools and university ‘co-Inform’ each other would be ideal. ‘More Interaction and communication Is essential,’ she concluded. ‘Institutions cannot remain Isolated enclaves. Dr. James Hoffman, a member of the geology department, sees no distinct line drawn between the university and the community. He feels that the majority of people in Oshkosh don’t see the university as something special; they see it as just there, a part of the community. As far as the issue of mistrust on the part of the townspeople, Dr. Hoffman thinks there Is mistrust when Dr. James Hoffman there Isn’t understanding. He believes that any mistrust that arises Is because people don’t understand the university; but he goes ontosaythatthoreareprob-ably as many people strongly in favor of the university as there are people strongly opposed to it. According to Dr. Hoffman, the university has a very positive beneficial affect on the community. As well as being a money source for the business community, Dr. Hoffman says the units also a desirable Industry. He emphasizes that the university offers a high-paying, high level of employment while it puts a low environmental cost on the city as it does not pollute, and Isn’t unpleasant to look at. Dr. Hoffman, who Is an active member of the Sierra Club, does most of his professional research on the local level. He feels that the city could greatly improve itself by drawing upon the trained professionals at UW-0 for information and advice in city matters such as sewage disposal and pollution control. He feels this could evolve into a system of mutual help between the city and the professionals on campus. John Kuony, Oshkosh Public Museum Director for the past 12 years, feels that “the city has come to accept the university as an asset, no longer viewing it as a threat.” He explained that historically there has been a tight little social group in the city, one that included a small group of faculty at one time. When the university expanded, many faculty members were no longer able to be a part of this small social group, thus giving rise to some hostilities between university and community members. Another problem of the past between the city and the university, which was cited by Kuony, was that of finding available space for an expanding campus. As Kuony put it, “At one time the city felt that the university was spoiling the city. It took the city a long time to realize the economic advantages of the university.” John Kuony The Museum uses many faculty members to lecture for it Kuony said. In addition, the Museum interchanges ar-chaelogical collections with the university for the university’s use as teaching tools. According to Kuony the Museum’s main contribution to the university students is its frequent contemporary art shows, especially of Wisconsin artists, and its monthly exhibits which are a great benefit to art students. Kuony noted that the Museum employs faculty members fulltime during the summers when they are not teaching. In ad- dition, there are usually between three and five WorkStudy students employed part-time during the school year, and some who work full-time during the summer. Kuony feels that one of the best ways to improve relations between the university and the city is to have those faculty men and women with a special rapport to extend their services to the community for the purpose of lecturing. If the university made sure that these peoples’ services and abilities were publicized and made available to the city, Kuony concluded, a greater interaction between the city and the university would be effected. Jim Buehner In an interview with Jim Buehner, a 25-year-old psychology teacher at Oshkosh North High School, he stated that “The majority of fairly intelligent people in Oshkosh look upon the university favorably.’ He went on to say that there are those people too, who have no interaction with the university, and therefore have an undue critical and 111-stereo-typed view of it. Because Buehner was born and raised in Oshkosh, attended UW-Oshkosh, and later taught at Perry Tipler Junior High School, he feels that he can view community-university relations rather objectively. Ashe said, “I have never really been away from the campus, since I have taken at least one course each semester since graduation. The young teacher feels that Oshkosh is lucky to have the university located within the city because of its economic contributions. Most important, however, are the cultural advantages that the university brings to the city, Buehner said. He continued by saying that “a town the size of Oshkosh probably wouldn’t have exposure to the type of art, music, and dramaevents that take place in Oshkosh without the university here.” Although Buehner feels that generally university-community relations are good, he said that if any poor relations are to be bettered, the responsibility lies with the college stihients. Since many townspeople feel that students made more attempts to be both more receptive and understanding of the situation, and to meet and interact more with community members. “Because college students can probably change their opinions more easily than can townspeople who are older and more permanently established in Oshkosh,” Buehner said, “any attempts to improve relations have to start with the the college kids. to students. He feels that there is some problem with shoplifting, but emphasizes that shoplifters aro not all college students. Mr. Gonyo said he would llk Bh to see the Universlty-Commu F nlty Rap Sessions, which were held last year, continued with more spirit. He envisions informal sessions being held on a weekly basis where anybody can come and talk to city officials. An important step toward good community-university relations is getting all factions of the community together to hash over problems according to Mr. Gonyo. Acting Police Chief William Gonyo sees himself as the liaison officer between the police department and the university. He tries to get to know administrative officers, deans, counselors, and officers of organizations including minority groups here at the university. Through his relations with both the community and the university, he feels he is able to say that the community, in a general sense, looks favorably upon the university. He says the univer- Chief William Gonyo s ity grew so fast for a while that it had an adverse impact in the community. According to Mr. Gonyo, the university expanded so rapidly that it could be thought of as a large city which, in a fourteen year period, moved right into the city of Oshkosh. He says that this was hard for people to accept. As time goes on, he sees the university becoming more accepted. Chief Gonyo makes it clear that the community cannot attribute its problems to the university. As example, he points out that vandalism and auto theft do not drop in the summer, and therefore cannot be attributed Dr. Clifford Larson Dr. Clifford E. Larson, Dean of the School of Business Administration, says he tries to involve himself in community as well as university activities. He is the secretary of the local BoyScouts Council ind is involved with church activities at this time. Dr. Larson feels that it is especially im]K rtant for someone in a dean's position to be an active member of the community. Through his experience with the community. Dr. Larson feels he is able to say that the comm unity has confidence in the teaching ability of the faculty. He states that any college or uui 'jrsity by definition is a distinct influence on a community, not only in Oshkosh but also in larger cities like Madison. He says that in any community with a university as large as UW-O it is inevitable that a portion of the community will feel apprehension towardthe students and university as a whole. He goes on to say that apprehension arises from lack of understanding. Dr. Larson feels the community has the confidence to place students in responsible positions. The School of Business Administration has a good relationship with the community according to Dr. Larson. He points out that many of the faculty members are involved with community affairs. Also, many local profit and non-profit organizations cooperate greatly in the business internship program. An objective of Improved university-community relations, Dr. Larson explains should lie to have the community come to understand that the university’s principle purpose is not to tear up Algoma Boulevard. Rather, the university is here to teach students to think, to reason, and to cope with the problems in our society. Students and faculty should also gain an appreciation of the fact that they are a part of the local community, and they should seek to Integrate rather than to segregate. Dr. Larson points out that segregation breeds alienation in almost any kind of setting. Oshkosh City Manager Gordon Jaeger says that the community in general views the university as an asset in many ways. He feels students are being recognized as part of the community. He also sees the university as having an overall good affect on the community. He points out that the university offers much to the community that the community would not have without it-from classes to cultural and sporting events. He feels a university makes a community much more interesting, and gives it a lot of life. Mr. Jaeger says that he has many contacts with the university administration, but not as many as he would like to have with the students. Most of his contacts now are through the president’s office, although he does anticipate doing more work with the new dean of students. In aiding community-university relations, Mr. Jaeger feels the city could take more advantage of the talents of professionals and services offered by various departments at the university. City Manager Gordon Jaeger He also feels the community should become more involved in events going on at the school. Personally City Manager Jaeger would like to spend more time on campus. He feels that he needs more and better contacts with students, and he intends to try to sain this. Robert Hallowln Robert Halloin has assumed the duties of Chairman of the UW-O Urban Affairs Department and Director of the University’s Bureau of Urban and Regional Research. He was formerly the Director of Community Development for the city of Oshkosh. He feels that the townspeople view the university with mixed feelings. Beni-fits of the university the townspeople recognize are cultural and athletic in nature. Also townspeople appreciate the business generated by having students and faculty as consumers; and educational opportunities offered to young townspeople! Most people in the community recognize the university for its good qualities, Halloin said. Mr. Halloin believes problems that arise between the city and university usually have a monetary basis. Taxpayers are reluctant to foot the bill for police and fire services when they see uncalled for disrespect and property damage. Students and faculty are viewed as transients that do not have the best interests of the community in mind. Many of the problems arise from fear and misunderstanding. At this time Mr. Halloin has more dealings with the city than he expects to have in the future. He does not intend to give up working with the city completely. Because of the nature of his Job, lie must remain in close contact with city government. Discussions in varied forms would holp solve some of the misunderstandings that arise, Halloin feels. The problem is that these are hard to organize when there are no pressing problems, though a structured forum could help. Halloin believes that the city should appoint students to serve on various boards, and the university should also look for ways to involve the townspeople. He feels there are no easy answers but that the problems could be much worse. continued from page 61 pie of psychic, spiritual, and intellectual enculturation” proferred to the student in an atmosphere of emotional interaction. Good God, what student worth his self-respect, to which he lias an Inalienable right, wants a teacher who’s a pal? -an “infromed, helpful, (sic) friend,” a “significant other,” messing around with his feelings as a formal part of the school curriculum. And what teacher worthy of the name wants a drooling relationship with his students? I remember Miss Anthropy, my high school algebra teacher. She really was unbelievably ugly, with a 200-pound body on a five-foot frame. But all the same, she knew algebra. She taught algebra. And we learned algebra. I don’t think she knew much, though, about being a “significant other,;; whatever that is; or about how to involve “feeling and action” with algebra; or about how to provide “option-rich environments” for her students with available “electronic technology.” Cer- tainly she did not Join us, nor we her, in a “circle of love.” Maybe she was inhuman. We at times thought so. But by the end of term we could do algebra passably well. And we had the dignity, the self-respect, generated by true accomplishment. We also had the freedom, having escaped the tyranny of Miss Anthropy, to go on to yet other accomplishments. Miss Anthropy didn’t know much, either, about how to “structure experiences which will modify the learner’s behavior in terms of what he has learned and he feels about it.” Which was all to the good, for I certainly didn’t know how I “felt”about algebra, or much of anything else for that matter, my feelings at the time like those of the ordinary adolescent undergoing chaotic and contradictory changes. One thing I knew, though. I knew I didn’t want anyone-including a “significant other”-messing around with my feelings, uninvited, as aformal part of the school curriculum so that I would be “enculturated” into the “ongoing culture.” I thought my feelings were my business, that I had a sort of constitutional right to them and their privacy. In retrospect, I think Miss Anthropy knew the same thing. And I think her knowledge of that along with her mastery of her discipline gave her, ugly as she was, a rare sort of beauty. I think she knew the limits of teaching and learning. And I think she knew the meaning of true freedom and personal dignity. ' i R adicals, Conservatives, Moderates and Other Beasts .«■ . mm « b - . A Political Satire by thomas davis There seems to be three types of students in the University world, and all three types are blatantly obvious as the school year starts. I was in the union the other day quietly sipping a glass of milk when the first type walked past me with his prophet’s beard and seer’s eyes. At first he did not bother to notice me, but then my glass of milk suddenly struck the heart of his soul. He sat down at my table after doing a sharp turn about and fastened his eyes on the beads of water around the glass rim. Since I refused to pay any attention to him he finally was forced to break his self imposed silence. ‘It’s white he said simply without any flair. I looked up startled from the depths of my glass. His eyes were blue. ‘What’s white? I asked filled with a strange foreboding. He looked over his shoulder at the room full of students and then put his hand over his mouth to mute his whisper. ‘The milk , man,’ he said. ‘It’s white. Can’t you see? I looked down at the milk. It was white! Then I looked back into his eyes which were beginning to burn with a slow anger. ‘Well, I must admit,’ I said. ‘It is white. Isn’t milk supposed to be white? His eyes flared open and encompassed the room. ‘What’s the matter you? he asked in a booming voice that turned several hundred eyes toward our table. ‘You a racist or somethin , a God damned bastard son-of-a-bitch Communist witch hunter? My eyes flared open and my heart began to beat. I started to explain that I was not even sure what he was talking about, but then another fellow from an adjoining table with a crew cut and a thin black tie got up and stared into the prophet’s eyes. ‘What in the world is the matter with you, sir,’ he asked my self righteous friend. ‘Are you baiting my very good friend here? I would advise you to quiet your voice before I call the police.’ The radical was properly mortified. He looked defiantly into the conservative’s eyes and spit on the table. ‘This SOB is drinking WHITE milk,’ he explained. ‘When he could just as easily have been drinking CHOCOLATE and showing support for our soul brothers.’ The conservative motioned to one of his friends and when the new fellow came up, bow-tie and all, he sneered at the radical and cursed under his breath. ‘This here COLLEGE student,’ he told his friend. ‘Is a NIGGER lover.’ At these edifying words the radical went insane. He cursed God, church and country and then ended up cursing life for allowing such horrible inequities to exist . He was just getting around to beginning a hymn to the glories of suicide when the two conservatives started to make disparaging remarks about the radical’s ancestry. About this time a big fellow with a booming voice and moderate clothes came over and bellowed for silence. Then, after the radical and the conservatives had shut up, he quieted his voice and smiled genially. ‘Now look here fellows,’ he said. ‘Why don’t you quiet down your voices and talk this matter over reasonably . There has to be a solution. We are human beings and human beings are REASONABLE.’ The radical got up from his chair and threw a round-house into the moderate’s face. The conservatives screamed in pain and jumped on the radical, trying to put his body through the cement floor. Then people from around the table jumped into the fray mouthing obscenities and cries of rage as the room boiled into a riot. I quietly finished my milk and then slipped out of the room. Once outside, Josh, a black friend, came up to me and we walked away from the union talking about truth and humanism. 37 p • I by dave kemper Sports r • i Intramurals Expand The University community must constantly be aware of popular trends to accommodate the interests of the student. In the past when such trends as eating live goldfish and stuffing as many people as possible into a phone booth were popular, campuses all across the nation held contests to fulfill these interests. Students today are no different. Throwing a round disc known as a frisbee or taking a pleasant canoe ride is considered a good time. The University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh is aware of these new trends and its Intramural department has planned a fantastic program to suit a wide range of interests. Among events planned by the Intramural office are: bicycle races, a golf jamboree, tennis tournaments, a hole-in-one golf tournament, a frisbee tournament, canoe races, pillow fights, gymnastic meets, wrestling meets, and a punt, pass and kick contest. All are new to the Oshkosh campus and will be a part of the total Intramural program including the traditional events of football, basketball, softball, volleyball, and swimming. The Intramural department has even expanded its co-recreational leagues to meet the demands of the new liberated women. Since the introduction of co-recreational sports in 1964, par- ticipation has been limited to the minor sports of volleyball, badminton, and swim meets. This year the women get to play right along side the men in the rough sports of football (touch), softball, and basketball. Warren Goehers and assistant Richard Schumacher are the masterminds behind the program. Their goal is to plan as many things as possible to fit in the seven day week. With the addition of R.M. Kolf Sports and Education Center to Albee Hall, the department is adequately equipped to meet this goal. Equipment can be checked out during most parts of the day. The schedule is as follows: kolf, 7:30 a.m. -11 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.-9 p.m. Saturday, and 1 p.m.-9 p.m. Sunday; at Albee, 7 p.m.-10 p.m. Monday through Friday and 1 p.m.-9 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The Intramural department has worked hard to give the student a full spectrum of zany and exciting events. As students of this community, show your appreciation. Turn off the television and don't go drinking for a few nights; get involved in campus life and enjoy as much of it as you can. (For a schedule of events, check with the Intramural department and the Quiver calendar on pp. 64-65). 39 The Spirit of 76 A primary purpose behind college sports is to further athletic competition between the more talented graduated high school athletes. Seldom does an individual succeed in collegiate sports without previous high school participation. Yet every now and then a student will enter the college ranks totally inexperienced and have tremendous success. A prime example of this type of athlete is Ron Leichtfuss, an offensive tackle for the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh football team. Being too small for high school sports, Ron spent most of his time swimming and weightlifting to strengthen his limbs and torso. By the time he enrolled as a freshman the Oshkosh native had built himself up to an impressive 225 pounds packed solidly over his 6 foot three inch frame. Equipped physically, and driven by a philosophy of try-as-much-as-you-can-before-its-too-late, Ron decided to give college football a whirl. He went to Russ Young, Head Coach of the Oshkosh football team, to see if he could have a tryout. Coach Young told Ron he was more than welcome to try, but he cautioned him not to expect much success unless he was ready to work extra hard. Ron accepted the challenge and began practicing with the football team. As Coach Young predicted, success was not immediate. Ron worked hard but his performance was anything but impressive. He became so disappointed that he considered quitting on numerous occasions. Only encouraging words by the coaching staff and a determined individual spirit kept him going through his initial year. Devoting his full time to learning game strategies along with actual game experience, Ron’s sophomore year ended with the hope of being a starter the next year: a hope he never would have dreamed after his disappointing first year. After his usual summer of weightlifting and swimming Ron began his junior season as an established member of the team. His performance in practices impressed the coaching staff enough to give him a starting berth at offensive tackle. After only three years of organized football Ron had beaten out players with as much as five and six years of experience. Adding to this Herculean feat he worked twenty-five hours in Fond du Lac and carried 15 credits as an economics major. With such a busy schedule his grades in the fall semester were 40 Tough number 76, Ron Leichtfuss clearly expresses the agony of college football. Dedication to the game is a quality many coaches search for. • i not impressive, but in the spring semester with no football to worry about, he brought his grades to a respectable 2.7 average. Ron lives by the philosophy of try-as-much-as-you-can-before-it’s-too-lale. He enjoys being constantly on the go, and his main interests center around keeping physically fit. A member of the Oshkosh YMCA, Ron goes there to weightlift and swim. He enjoys physical education. A letterman, Ron finds little time to participate in any other activities. Working, playing football, and going to school keep him busy. This is Ron’s final year of elegibility. The tall, well-built blond has one last chance to prove his football experience was worthwhile. I recently asked him if he felt any regrets starting football so late in life. He replied by saying, “football has taught me discipline and team work, every minute was worth it.” For the first time he has a total “feel of the game.” I for one think Ron Leichfuss will have a great year. Be sure to keep your eye on number 76 at the Titan football game. photos by mike shores Harriers Running Strong Crosscountry running is one of the most basic activities. It is a simple rivalry of one man a-gainst another. Once the runner steps to the starting line he is faced with a personal challenge that never lets up during the five mile race. At times the runner may gently move over the course, at other times he may labor through every step. No race is ever the same. Each race reveals to the runner new and mysterious capabilities of the human body. Adding to the beauty and mystery is the course itself. It is not run on a typical oval track, but on the natural terrain. The course slithers through woods, along streams, up hills, around ponds, across bridges, and over ancient, weathei beaten paths. Experiencing this spectacle gives one the feeling of watching the Olympiad of ancient Greece. Today’s society demands fast moving, contact sports like football and basketball. As a result the serene sport of crosscountry has been traditionally relegated a minor role. Crosscountry is finally gaining the recognition it deserves. On the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh campus the program is becoming stronger. Coached by Ron Akin the Oshkosh crosscountry team is comprised of a group of thirteen men dedicated to the sports. Daily these men run numerous miles to tune their bodies. Thebeautyofthis isthatthe runners enjoy every stride they advance. They’re constantly trying to extend into unknown regions of courage and strength. Steve Ross, a letterman originally from Trinidad, ran ten miles each day this summer to expand his perserverence. Once organized practices begin, the team members jog 12 miles daily. Later practices consist of running a series of one and two mile races in repetition, and practice the finishing touch in sprint work to enable the runner that final burst in a race. After all this the runner is ready to test his capabilities in an actual race. He can now see if he has conditioned his body better than his competitors. If he does well in the race he is deeply satisfied. If he does poorly he knows he has to push harder in the coming practices, run more miles, and atune his thought and muscles to the pain and lonliness known by the long distance runner. Steve Ross strains to excell. Spring i don’t like spring; except my bike (and your hair.) Debbie Rahn 42 Sailing in a Dream Oshkosh is ideally located for the sport of sailing. The city sits on the biggest inland lake in the Midwest, Lake Winnebago, and is sliced down the middle by the Fox River. Our university, for the past eight years, has taken advantage of these facilities by operating sailing classes and a sailing club. It has been supported and paid virtually by the students themselves without much trouble. The boats in the past were rented from a marina in Neenah. But during the past year the owner of the marina died, and the only way the club can continue is by buying the boats before the company in Neenah is liquidated. In June Sailing Club advisor Janest Moldenhaur , and former club member Chris Pinahs, presented the Allocations Committee a request for $21,000 to purchase the boats. The committee temporarily accepted the request, and sent it to Chancellor Roger Guiles for approval. Guiles denied the request because it was in conflict with the funding of instructional material. Moldenhaur was not Notified of the denial until four days before school started while the report was announced in Guiles office August 8. Anyone could have rented a boat if they had sailing ability and money from this rental would have been used to strengthen the program. According to Moldenhaur without the approval of the request, sailing at Oshkosh will have to fold. The only sailing Oshkosh students will do will be in their dreams. 43 Notes on Being from Dr. Thomas Shadwell, UW-O professor. Could he possibly mean all he says Since this is the first issue of the new Quiver, I thought this column ought to lecture upon the evils and goodnesses of the present University system and solve all of the University’s problems; but since up to this time I have been one of the more obscure faculty members, I feel compelled to into myself. My name is Thomas Shadwell, Phd., and I date back further than most faculty members can remember. My interests are various. In this column I will write about the state of the University, nation, and world. With luck I will get in a few metaphysical observations, a few concrete and realistic suggestions, and some items of mere interest. Hopefully my chief qualities will be pompousness, weightness, and flashin’ witfulness. This makes a short end to a long subject, but since I am short by nature brevity is of the essence. The problem I wish to deal with today is the one of boorishness. My thesis claims that most University problems are caused because most students and teachers are boors. The solution to the problem that I wish to advocate is very simple. Since boars are beasts of a nasty nature, they obviously need to be either penned in a compound or slaughtered without mercy. A boor according to the dictionary definition is a rude or insensitive person. He is an individual, in other words, who treads on other people while thinking about truth or some other lofty subject. If he is an instructor he scribbles on the blackboard all hour and then, after the class is over , walks off leaving his totally meaningless chalk marks for the next instructor to decipher and erase. If he is a student he yawns with glassy eyed abandon at the crucial point in a crucial lecture. Universally he is the fellow who talks incessantly about himself while trying to get his girl friend to make love. His problem is usually vanity; and his downfall pride. That boors are rampant upon this campus should be obvious. The other day I was walking down the stairs in Polk library when some blihd dolt of a well endowed woman nearly knocked me off my feet. I felt as if I were bouncing off two basketballs left on court. The lady did not even apologize. She seemed shocked that I did not enjoy the experience! A week ago I inadvertantly walked into a colleagues classroom while he was still lecturing and he acted like a volcano stuffed with hot air and fiery gasses. When I did not immeadiately tell him that I re-greted the intrusion he coldly asked me to PLEASE wait outside until he was finished. All of this is obviously boorlshness at its worst extreme, and no one can live three weeks on campus and fall to notice its grossness. In Reeve Union half drunk cups of coffee are left on the table even though they are cold as ice; in th e library, stale hot dogs are left on the seats warming themselves from the heat of absent behinds; and in the pit classrooms leaflets are scattered on both floor and seats like leavings from a tornado. Obviously there is only one solution to this horrible, inhumane problem. It is true that the Supreme Court has lately repealed the death penalty for man, but since boars are animals 44 instead of men, the ruling obviously does not apply. Therefore, in Swift’s vein, I would propose a grand hunt one week from tonight so that all the boors on campus can be rounded up and either penned or slaughtered. For their rooting habits they obviously deserve this punishment, and since such a punishment has all the rudiments of a football game (violence, action, etc.), the meting out of the punishment should be recreational and fun. All of those who are not boors themselves could meet on the lawn behind Reeve Union and hold a rally to build up their spirits, and then, with firebrands and ropes, they could start their hunt, burning down the houses of the offenders and raising a hymn to heaven every time one of the victims had been captured. After the hunt the non-boors could have a bacchanalian feast where lessons in hanging and torture could be given. For myself I have always been curious to see how a woman would look if her head were cut off and placed between her feet with the blood streaming into her eyeballs. Of course, a few on campus will object to my solution’s morality. They will say I have punished small infractions of etiquette with large punishments; but I have noticed one item of interest during my years on campus. Those who speak the most about morality are usually those who walk on the grass instead of on the sidewalk. Such a boorish action is obviously deserving of the most brutal punishment. Therefore, I would advise all those who oppose my position to beware. 45 Statement by Dr. A1 Ferguson The erosion of public esteem for higher education—for education generally—grows apace; and suddenly “accountability” is upon us, wrought by adverse public jugdement about teachers, and, the fruit of their labors, the general character and capabilities of students. As with all cultural phenomena the decay of the academic dogma and erosion of public trust in public educational institutions and their operatives is an effect with manifold causes, (“Public in this instance includes of course the students.) I suggest one of the principal causes of this alienation is the abandonment of the real objects of learning: the ability to think, speak, and write with logic, rationality and honest argument; the possession of a general historical perspective by which to judge the present, and to make provision for the future; the ability to see relationships and intuit analogies; the possession of a general cultural awareness. These objectives have been abandoned by “modern ’ in the main neo-romantic educational theory under various labels and guises, all tending totheproposition that the educational experience should be keenly participatory, personal (ego-centered), and emotive; but not highly rational or discursively interactive with the enviroment. The “conser- Statement by Dr. Ed Welsse I believe that the schooling process has two distinct functions, 1. to serve the individual student, and 2. to enculturate the student into the ongoing culture. Therefore, the only required classes in the schooling process should be those which deal with universals within a particular culture or those which serve the student with skills and knowledge to serve a positively re-forcing life within the culture. Schooling should offer an option rich environment for exploration of self in relation tothe world. The role of the teacher is to facilitate the learning process by being a significant other in the life of the learner. In order to be a significant other the teacher needs to be an informed, helpful, friend who is motivated in his or her search for truth so as to serve as a model in the learning environment. Schooling should be involved with feeling and action if the intellectualizing is to be meaningful in the life of the learner. To know without feeling and action is to be less than human. The electronic technology available today can provide option rich environments which powerfully expose knowledge to the learner while the teacher is free 1. to help the student clarify how he feels about what he learns and 2. to structure experiences which will modify the learner’s behavior in terms of what he has learned and how he feels about it. 46 vative” view of human nature has been replaced with a Rousseaugue perspective: respect for the self as a limited and potentially corrupt being, a respect for the authority of experience, respect for the freedom wrought by obedience to discipline and training--all these “archaic” truths liawn V: n traded at discount for “the infinitude of the private man,” as Emerson put it. I do not believe this notion and its corollary assertion, that freedom is an absolute, can be productive of the truly civilized community or truly civilized men and women the ultimate object of education. If experience has taught us anything, it has taught us the perniciousness of educational theory based on those dupious propositions. Reaction by Dr. Ed Weisse It seems that Dr. Ferguson sees the traditional classical education as the answer to the erosion of public esteem in education and to the public’s demand for accountability. The public supported institutions must have a much broader base than narrow classical liberal arts approach that advocates a basic skills and knowledge as viewed by scholars in very narrow academic disciplines. The demand by the public as I hear it is that students be freed to think rather than rest icted to discovering that truth that the professor has discovered and found relevant to his life. The erosion of public trust is due to the academic community being deaf to a rapidly changing society and the exciting options that it offers. Basic skills and tools are needed in a complex society, but the call for a monolithic program at a State supported university is to put a stop to the rational process and to the diverse needs of a complex culture. The educational process needs to utilize emotion with the cognitive processes if the student is to be rational and have the ability to discursively interact with the environment. It seems that a real, experience interface with environment is a prerequisite for discursive interaction. Intellect is sterile unless it is accompanied by feeling and I hear the public demanding from schools that life be a passionate encounter with the world rather than a sterile observer of the world. I also hear the public saying that to live by goals of a past generation takes the purpose out of life and that education should open modern options and allow the student to explore the world to discover purpose in his own •life. I also hear the public demanding power beyond the credentializing purpose served by the institution of higher learning. This power comes • by possessing skills, knowledge, and rational powers demanded by the culture. The traditional education proposed by Dr. Ferguson seems to lack passion, purpose, and power, and I suggest that they be included in the educational process. continued on page 60 w Student Publications I think a student newspaper is necessary not only to inform students, which is the main objective of any paper, but to let them know of the events that may effect them as students. The paper helps provide a direction for students so that they can have a course to follow. Not necessarily an academic or educational path, just something to let them know what is going on around them. Then they can choose a course that suits their particular feelings. Students should not attend school just for academic education. Many students are living away from home for the first time, and have a unique opportunity for learning. They should be questioning things, learning about life and not taking things for granted as many were taught to do in high school. As editor this semester I would like to see the A-T do more than just record campus events. It should be a paper students will want to read to gain insight into what the administration and state is doing about the educational system. The first few issues will be aimed at students who are spending their first semester at Oshkosh. It will try to serve as a map to what is available at their university and in the city of Oshkosh. We want to expand beyond the campus, and report on things that are happening in Oshkosh that would be of interest to the student. There are ways in which the community can help the student and ways in which the student can help the community. We would like to be an instrument which allows both to get together and give suggestions to each other. There seems to be a complaint by students that Oshkosh has nothing to offer them--it’s a poor place to live, a very conservative town. The Advance-Titan would like to clarify any misinterpretations between the students and the town. We will be covering the city by sending reporters to city council meetings, and to any events which may come up that are of interest to students. We would like to do as much as possible with the town as far as community-university relations, but we have to have the cooperation of the city and the townspeople. Since this is an election year, many people have been wondering if I will be supporting any of the candidates. I don't as yet plan on endorsing any student candidates or give them unqualified support. We def-initley will be covering the elections if students are running, and possible where students aren't running. The administration hasn't, as yet, edited any of the A-T's issues. This could possible happen if the paper came out, and took a firm stand in favor of political candidates. The worst thing that could happen is to have editorial opinion creep into objective news stories. As editor I won't let this happen. Editorial opinion should be kept on the editorial page. During last spring's elections I think it was valid for the A-T to come out in support of student candidates because students are a large part of the community. If the candidates would work for the benefit of the campus and the community, then I would give them support. There are always complaints about a student newspaper being biased. Even if we keepstories completely objective there is a danger of being biased, not by slanting stories, but by their appearance in the paper. For example, the number of abortion stories that are run can evoke a feeling of bias in the readers. The last editor of the A-T was very pro Women’s Lib you could tell her viewpoint just by the number of stories run on the subject. This semester I plan to do a series of articles, possibly on the sex laws in this state. I would like to try to show how antiquated they really are. Sex laws which are certainly doing no good, and I feel they do a lot of harm. This is something that I think the majority of people realize, but legislatures are afraid to come out against. I would like to do a series on specific cases of violators of sex laws in general, and try to show how foolish they really are. This would be rather a biased report, but it is interpretive news, and in a case like this I think we are justified in showing one viewpoint or another. Included in this semester issues will be various feature-type articles which might be put under the title of “Geographical Points of Interest in Winnebago County.’’ Something which might be included would be a feature on the sand pits and on bike enthusiasts around the city. The city of Oshkosh boast that 20 percent of the inland waters in the state of Wisconsin are within a 25 mile radius of the city. Why then, can't you find a decent beach or some place to swim? Pollution has become an everyday encounter for most of us; so for that reason I am working on a series of articles that deal with it. It is a very important subject to all of us these days, and one which deserves attention. 48 After filling out required forms and answering questions (above), students wait patiently until a doctor or a nurse is available to see them (below). 51 3S by sally graves En-terLqjjjiaaj Ms. Nocturnal Bar Fly Bubbly over new bar Many good and varied people wander the streets of this great city seeking distraction. Some of these people are essentially loners, others prefer to congregate in large groups-they actually seem to form separate species. Some of the more abundant species which roam the UW-0 campus and seek out the grand entertainment extravaganzas offered in the fair city of Oshkosh include the Bellied Beer Freak, the Unintelligible Intellectual, the Hyped Homeo-hippie, the Emblem chested Frat Man, and the Nocturnal Bar Fly. Each species has its own preference in entertainment establishments, and each species tends to dominate a certain establishment. After reviewing these facts, I decided to try to find an unusual establishment where people could have a good time without being forced into (or out of) a large one-group situation. In my search, I went to a Nocturnal Bar Fly with the question ‘Have you wandered into an unusual bar lately?’ The usual haunts of the Nocturnal Bar Fly are monstrous tomblike buildings with head-busting bartenders and two feet of broken glass and spilled beer on the floor. I chose a Bar Fly for my interview because I felt that anyone with her taste in establishments would immediately recognize-and leave-an unusual bar. At the time of this interview, my Bar Fly was extremely upset and appalled by a newly redecorated bar which is now open for business on what some people call The Strip. This is what she told me: ‘Right from the outside I knew there was somethin’ weird about this place. I mean it has all this parking space around it! I bet there’s enough room for a million cars NEAR the bar! Why, that alone almost shows that someone is really interested in the convenience of the customers-that’s really far out! I was a little shook up, and a little loaded from chugging three quarts of beer down the alley, but I decided to go inside anyway. I passed out when I went through the door! This place really IS weird inside. They have carpeting on the floor, and it aint made out of cigarette butts and cheap gin. They’ve got the lights turned down low and all the walls have dark wood on them. It was mind blowing bein’ in a place where cement blocks don’t show. I can’t figure out why they covered up the cement blocks. Anyway, this place has got that stuff they call atmosphere. I mean its got decor and class and the whole bit. I decided I’d sit down anyway and have a beer; you know, just to see what the place was like, but sitting down is another thing. They’ve got all these different kinds of places to sit-stools by the bar, black padded booths, wooden booths, tables-I mean they actually give you a choice. I never saw anything like it. Well, I finally decided to sit by the bar, ’cause that’s where I’m used to being. I was going to order a tap, you know, (they have the usual 25$ taps) but then I looked around and they had all these signs advertising specials on mixed drinks. I asked the bartender about these specials. He said this place specializes in cocktails and blended drinks, so, I decided I’d try a mixed drink. You should have seen the drink I got! I mean it had all these cherries and oranges and stuff in it. I asked the bartender why he put all this junk in my drink, and he said this bar specializes in garnishing drinks heavily. I always thought garnish was when someone drops a cigarette butt in your glass. While I was talking to this bartender I happened to notice that he could hear me, and I could hear him. This hadn’t happened to me in a long time! I thought maybe my hearing had improved a zillion per cent, but then I looked around and there wasn’t any band playing, I mean you have an excuse not to talk to anyone. Well this place doesn’t have bands, just soft music. Now do you see how weird this place is? Not only do they have soft music, but they have speakers all over the ceiling. The customersthemselves were kind of different. What I mean is there were all different kinds of people sitting around in small and large groups, and they all had shoes and shirts on. I never saw anything lijce it. Almost everybody in the place looked like a college kid-even the waitresses and bartenders. I don’t know. I think this place is really cool; but you know, my kind of people haven’t taken it over yet. I mean I’m not used to being in a bar with so many different kinds of people. It’s kind of spooky. What I mean is I like the security of a crowd of people who are just like me, and I like a good gross-out. If you don’t need this stuff, then you might really like this place, but it’s really weird. I don’t know. Incidentally, the bar Ms. Nocturnal Bar Fly has been referring to is the newly redecorated Red Lantern located right behind Mars on The Strip. 53 w Department Features by barbara ernst Special Faculty Projects Reviewed: Few students realize what their professors do outside of the classroom. The UW-0 faculty has many professors who are currently involved in many diverse projects. Faculty members are constantly gathering data for research works, books, and experiments which enlarge the scope of their field and make them more competent teachers. None of the Departments on campus remain static or isolated, and many are fostering improved University-Community relations. the gap between where American women are today in politics, and where they should be. Because of his work in the area of women studies, Gruberg has received numerous requests to head panels and write articles dealing with the nature of women in politics. Besides his regular course work, Dr. Gruberg also writes a weekly column, SPOTLIGHT ON WOMEN for the Oshkosh Northwestern. In addition, Gruberg has begun a new seminar course at UW-0 which examines the role of women in American politics. Political Science Martin Gruberg of the Political Science Department has become internationally known for his documentation of women in the American political scene. A forerunner of the current women’s rights movement. Dr. Gruberg began researching the influence of women in politics in 1964. Through extensive research, interviews, and questionnaires, Gruberg documented the role of women in American political affairs. His book, WOMEN IN AMERICAN POLITICS, was published in 1968, and today his work is considered by many experts to be the most definitive source of information on the contribution of women to American politics. More recently Gruberg authored a section on women in political life for a new reference encyclopedia, WO MEN'S LIBERATION. Gruberg attempts to put women in American politics in a proper perspective and compares the political achievements of American women with those of women in other countries. While various nations have women in prominent offices making key contributions to political life, American women play a rather small political role. Gruberg points out Geobgy David Arndorfer In the UW-O Geology Department, David Arndorfer is involved in various projects with significant environmental consequences. Arndorfer deals with the quality of the air in the Oshkosh area. In cooperation with the Department of Natural Resources, Arndorfer takes samples of the air and monitors the amount of particles which appear. There are two sampling stations in the Oshkosh area from which Arndorfer works. One station is located at the downtown fire station, and the other is located at the Roosevelt School on Sawyer Street. Arndorfer samples the air over a 24 hour period every 3 days. Air is pulled into a filter on which dirt particles accumulate. The filter is then weighed, and a figure is calculated in micrograms per cubic centimeter in order to determine, the quality of the air in each test. Besides determining the amount of dirt in the air, Paul Edmonds of the UW-0 Biology Department also calculates the amount of sulfur dioxide in the air samples. The results of the tests are sent to the Air Pollution Control Center in Madison where various other reports and studies are conducted. From Madison, the figures are sent to the national center in Durham, North Carolina where the information becomes part of the national air quality data. Dr. Arndorfer has found that the quality of the air in Oshkosh is quite good, especially when compared to the air in many other areas and most major American cities. While the pollution level at both of the Oshkosh stations is lower than that “allowed” by the Federal standard, Arndorfer’s studies show that the downtown area is actually more polluted than the Sawyer Street station on an annual basis. In addition to his air sampling project, Dr. Arndorfer is involved in another enviornmental project which is backed by the National Science Foundation. This project deals with seasonal distribution of percipitation and its reflection of pollution. Pollution collects in percipitation as acid. Arndorfer measures the amount of acid and attempts to pinpoint the area from which the percipitation has come. In this way, Arndorfer hopes to discover how the pollution in other cities effects the Oshkosh area. Philosophy Dr. John Burr With a Regent’s State University Grant, Dr. John Burr of the Philosophy Department is carrying on an intensive investigation into the philosophy of H.L. Mencken. Burr has traveled to Baltimore, Maryland and New York City in an effort to collect data on Mencken’s works and ideas. Much of f)r. Burr’s research has included digging out important material from a variety of unpublished sources which have recently been opened to scholars such as Burr. Included in this abundance of data are some 30,000 previously nonpublic letters, many of which Burr read in an attempt to isolate those which dealt with his project. Burr believes that Mencken is too often considered only for his literary career, and the supporting role he played toward literary unknowns. While Mencken’s literary achievements are indeed significant. Burr’s thesis deals with Mencken’s scientific, philosophic scepticism. It is Dr. Burr’s contention that H.L. Mencken stands out as a philosophic man of ideas as well as a powerful literary figure. Burr emphasizes Mencken’s scientific nature, and feels that Mencken saw no incompatibility between artists and scientists. Even though Mencken felt that Americans are believers, and therefore, alien to scepticism, Mencken himself promoted a philosophy based on scientific scepticism. Throughout his lengthy research, Dr. Burr has discovered H.L. Mencken to be a profound thinker. Mencken dealt with life realistically, and abhorred hypocrisy on all levels. His views on politics, society, women, censorship and government all stand out as being rather unique for his time. Dr. Burr’s forth coming monograph on Mencken’s philosophy studies Mencken in a new light. Mencken is finally emerging as an incredibly diverse and interesting man who deserves further thought and study by contemporary scholars. Biology Three faculty members of the Biology Department are currently working on a project which could have major effects upon the future of waste treatment and cleaner water. Fred Spangler, William Sloey, and William Fetter are involved in a project backed by the Enviornmental Protection Agency in cooperation with the East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission and the University. German scientists have shown that marsh vegetation may be used as a treatment process for waste- determine which types of marsh plants do the best Job of decomposition. Not only do these marsh plants aid in the decomposition process, but they can also be harvested as a means of removing nitrogen and phosphorus. The implications of this new system are numerous. The system could prove to be more economical and technically advantageous than present treatment systems. It could possibly be added to present treatment processes to give the water a final “polishing”, or the system could be implemented by small towns or campsites that presently employ no method of waste-water treatment st all. The three co-workers on the new process expect that their project will be extended over a number of years in order to resolve problems and develop as many of the potentials of such a system as possible. Besides the advantage of cleaner water from a more economical system, Dr. Spangler sees another important ramification in the project. He feels that already the project has promoted goodUniversity-Commun- water. Spangler, Sloey, and Fetter hope to demonstrate the practicality of this method through their project. The pilot treatment system is being set up on the Black Creek located in Seymour, Wisconsin. The system involves the routing of wastewater through a system of 10 individual shallow basins each of which is planted with different types of marsh vegetation. Various tests will be run on each of the basins to ity relations. According to Spanglor, “There is too often no ev hange of ideas or flow of thinking between the University and the community. The community should draw more heavily on the University.” Thus while working on current environmental problems, Spangler, Sloey, and Fetter are also helping to bridge the gaps between the University and the community it serves in an effort to promote future cooperation on other significant endeavors. continued from page 18 and it is immaterial what they think is right or wrong. They’ll go whichever way the loudest voices are coming from. With these people politics has become a profession. Their sole interest is getting re-elected. They’re too wrapped up in their ego. This country doesn’t need politicians or politicos. What it is in dire need of is Statesmen, people willing to call the issues as they see them. I think it’s a woman’s own right to choose abortion. It’s her body. The mandates that have come down from the church and been incorporated into government are against abortion, but as you know there is supposed to be a seperation between church and state. Theoretically such a separation exists, but practically it doesn’t because people cannot disassociate themselves from their religious ideas. This is where the problem comes in. Also, historically, nations have wanted to have large populations because people have meant power. But the world has changed. I don’t think the government today is in any position whatsoever to say to women across the board, “No, you cannot have an abortion.” If a woman becomes pregnant, and doesn’t want the child, then that is her business and not mine and not the government’s. I’ve got no use for heroin, and I don’t think too many people do. There is a big difference between shooting up heroin and smoking a joint or hash. However, I think a heroin program like Britain has is good. Philosophically I strongly disagree with it because the government is controlling other people’s lives, but as far as the utility of it goes the government is dispensing the heroin, cutting down on the people shooting up battery acid and just out and out crap, and reducing the crime rate, the main reason the government is uptight about heroin. I don’t think they’re up tight so much about the physical and mental suffering. I don’t see the reason why prostitution has to be outlawed or why it couldn’t be legal. It’s as old as mankind. It’s been going on; it’s going to continue to go on. Personally I don’t see anything wrong with it, but it does degrade women, and there really isn’t any love. It is just sexual gratification; but the fact of the matter is that it’s there. It willprobablyexistaslong as men see women as sex obiects. I don’t see why the government can’t legalize and regulate it. The people on the Common Council represent a broad base of views. There are not too many views that aren’t represented. Strangely enough, I respect Mrs. Sitter more than I do anybody else as far as attitudes go. I disagree with Mrs. Sitter on almost everything, but at least I know she is going to take a stand, and not sit on the fence to see which way the wind is going to blow. This is what this country needs. Not people specifically like Mrs. Sitter, but people who are going to take a stand and be statesmen and not politicians. Donald Jorgenson is a case in point. He’s a very likable person, but I don’t think we need likeable people in politics. We need people who are going to take stands, and Donald 0f Jorgenson is just not one of those people. I didn’t intoduce the Viet Nam War resolution to make any friends, but the fact is that the resolution does effect the people of Oshkosh. It affects them monetarily, and it affects them because of the Oshkosh sons who have been lost in Viet Nam. The Viet Nam War is a national problem only because we’ve relegated it there. One of the problems confronting the country is that people are putting things in different cata-gories and saying that this is a state, national, or local problem. Are the senators, congressmen, and presidents the only people responsible for war? I would say the people of the United States are responsible, and if the war were driven home to the people of Oshkosh, there would be a lot more resentment to it than there is now. In the nude dancing controversy the underlying issue is not nude dancing. The underlying issue is censorship. I don’t see where anybody comes off--particularly the government—telling me or you or anybody what their morals ought to be. It takes an awful lot of audacity on the part of some people to assume everybody subscribes to the same Judeo-Christian ethic. The reason these proposed restrictions came up is because nude dancing supposedly is obscene behavior. Well, what I find obscene is not nude dancing--I find it obscene that somebody would tell me what I can read or write. Obscenity isn’t a woman showing her pubic hair. Obscenity is a general walking down the street with his medals won in the war of aggression, or the church ritual of so-called “hippies” who say that we have to have a war for peace. I think w'e ought to start redefining words like “obscenity” for the establishment. About a month ago I introduced several amendments to the Sewage Control Ordinance. This is the first ordinance Oshkosh has ever had regulating sewage or flowage. The amendments were to strengthen it. At the last council meeting two of the amendments were passed, one was defeated, and the other was laid over for rewriting. I’ve also been trying to get an environmental advisory committee established . Hopefully this committee will do research into different environmental problems. I spent some time talking with Dr. Guiles, and it looks as though the city is going to contract with the Biology Department at the university to do the testing. This will give students work study jobs, and also help to further university-community relations. If something comes up on the campus that0 affects the city, the city should be advised of it. A case in point would be the East Hall situation. There are no recreational facilities on that side of town for the neighborhood 58 children. University property is being turned into four ball diamonds for university use. A fence is going up to keep the kids out. I also noticed that there are signs in other places in the city that say, “Private Property--No Trespassing--Owned by the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh.” The taxpayers are paying for that property, and how the university can stake it off from the public is beyond me. The university should become involved with the community. It should lend its expertise and come out of the secluded halls of ivy. The biggest job that I have during the next two years is not so much introducing legislation, but trying to educate people, educate them to a different view-point, a different attitude, a different conciousness. I can't introduce legislation and let it go at that. I have to explain why. I try to explain the rationale behind my vote. continued from page 16 that he needs to be a former educator someone who has been a teacher. He has got to be able to handle people--not just talk to them. Of course, I think matters could be helped if the people surrounding the Chancellor were people who could accept responsibility, and make some of the decisions that the Chancellor has to make. I think Dr. Guiles could have more contact with students if the people surrounding him were more like this. I think students should have a lot of say in deciding what should be taught at the university. What they learn now is going to rule their lives forever. Their future positions and future goals depend upon what they learn today. There is the argument that students are students and they don't know what they need until they get out in the world; but I think they should have a great deal of voice because the world is changing, and there are instances where students recognize change faster than the administrators or faculty. This is why a program such as Independent Study is of such great importance to students. With Independent Study the student can get out of the University and do research and prac- tical study into what he sees as the important aspects of his future life. The administration, of course, should have a say in what is taught. They are to a certain extent responsible for the students who graduate from this university. However, I think that because they are administrators, they lose contact with what the priorities of our educational system should be. In terms of a controlling voice in the university, the people I feel who have entirely too much influence are the Board of Regents. The Board of Regents is a body composed mostly of private citizens whose responsibility is to devise, implement, and plan programs of the university; and too often they are not only not involved or aware of the current intellectual and educational trends, but there seems to be a definite lack of contact with students in terms of what students think is important. The Board makes decisions that greatly influence all aspects of the University, and I think they have too much power with too little knowledge. The public itself is demanding more of a voice because they pay the taxes that support the institution; but they also pay taxes for the military, and the military is run by people who are experts in military science, I think it is the responsibility of the public to pay taxes for the education of the public. I feel that the public should leave the decision making up to the educators, the administration and students. The public’s voice should be channeled through these experts. I don’t think the public should have a controlling voice or one that can change or drastically alter the programs designed by the people with expertise. Through out history the public has been a very, very conservative body. If the public actually controlled the politicians nothing would ever change. I think it’s up to the people with expertise to listen to the public, but I think the experts need to make the final decision. Majority rule is what some people claim this whole nation is founded upon. While it is true that the government and all other institutions should be concerned with majority rule, I think that the minority always has to be taken into consideration. The majority is often quite wrong, and the minority is sometimes right. I think that as much diversity as is possible is necessary in all aspects of student life including student government, continued on page 60 59 continued from page 59 Looking in from the outside perhaps there does seem like there is a clique running student government, but this is absolutely false. I had no contact with Jim Engmann until I worked with him during Allocations hassle. I worked wit him not because I was his friend, but because I thought the issue was of such magnitude that all students needed to get involved. Because of this involvement I suspect that in all such cases there is going to be a certain amount of agreement on issues. In this way I assume one could call student government a clique but you have to remember that student government consists not only of a President and Vice President, but also of an A-ssembly and Senate; and many of the people in the Assembly and Senate are diametrically opposed to the so-called ruling clique. As for the election last spring one would have to make a value judgement on what they believed was unethical. To my way of thinking, and to Mary Dewane’s, this was not and unethical campaign. Damage was done to both sides through both material destruction and deragotory comments via leaflets. Mary and I had nothing to do with this, and I am sure our opponets, Jim Manning and Mike Aubinger, had nothing to do with this either. I think it was a third party on both sides who were very interested in seeing their candidates win. I thought this was unneccessar y, but because of the margin of victory I think we would have won no matter what was said or left unsaid during the campaign. However, I do think student government’s integrity was hurt by the campaign. I am not a stooge for Crucius or anyone. I never have been and never will be. The charge that Mary and I were stooges for Crucius was an attempt on one individual’s part to see that the Mitchell-Dewane ticket would not become OSA president and vice president. It was an unethical attack that had no basis whatever. I very much like Jim Manning and Mike Aubinger. Both were quite opposed to Mary and I in terms of political philosophy though. Politically I thought their attempt to challenge the election was not done out of the feeling of being cheated as much as it was a legitimate attempt on their part to challenge an election which they didn’t think ethical; but I did get rather annoyed in that they did continue to make statements that inferred that Mary and I ran an unethical campaign. But personally I like both of the men. I was especially happy to see Michael Aubinger run since he was a Freshman, and I think too often students wait untill their junior or senior year to get involved. In terms of my accessibility to students I would like to think it is very good. I realize that there is a distinction put on the OSA office in that it is much like the Dempsey administration and off limits to students, but this is ridiculous. The OSA’s offices are in the Student Union, second floor, and they are totally accessible to any student at any time to talk, complain, rap, or have a personal talk about what is bugging them with me. If anyone has any concern at all about the university or student government I’d like them to stop by so that we can get it out into the air. Reaction by Dr. A1 Ferguson We have air pollution, water pollution, earth pollution-total pollution. Now we have “word pollution’’-a verbal landscape so mucked up with impenetrable jargon that tofig-ure out the meaning, if any, you must slog through a morass of what the author of “The Peter Principle’’ terms “Peter Palaver,'’ a pluperfect nonlanguage comprised of abstractions that obscure rather than clarity. How about “optimal motivation projection’’ or “incremental integration contingency’’ or “protocol proclivity permeation”? Do these words have an authoritative ring? Sound learned? Seem irrefutable? You bet. How they got left out of Professor Weisse’s statement Idon’t know. But nobody’s perfect. On first reading his statement I thought I had just read the first intelligible analysis of our campus parking problem these first days of school. But on more sober reflection I determined that what we have here is a somewhat more sinister nuisance. Nineteen eighty-four and “Newspeak,” its verbal symbol, may come sooner than we think. Those of us concerned with preventing the closing-off of alternatives available to the individual, thus making him solely an instrument of society, of the State-an automaton totally “enculturate(d)...into the ongoing culture’’-think that the chief means of averting the ultimate disaster is by cultivating our rational faculty and our intuitive faculty simultaneously. Lacking the fullest possible development of either faculty we shall not have insight. Lacking insight into the elemental truths of the human condition we shall surely perish-figuratively (that Is, spiritually) as the “enculturated” slave of the State, as in “1984” or “Brave New World;” or literally, victims of our ignorance, victims of not knowing the limitations that circimscribe the human experience. Attempted transcendence of these inevitable limitations in any given context inevitably produces first chaos and then death-of one sort or another. Surely history teaches us this. But if, like Henry Ford, you think “history is bunk,” if you think the limits transcended in; the past does not pollute the present, then take a deep breath and plunge into the Potomoc or Lake Erie or the East River or the Fox. And see which 60 continued from page 60 poisons you first, the crap in the air or the crap in the water. And if that lesson doesn’t • impress on you the fallacy of the myth of the “un-selflimited man,’’ then you’re too “endul-turated” by our contemporary culture, which preaches on every corner that archaic romantic myth of the unlimited self, to ever learn anything. Professor Weisse has a transcendent commitment to education, or Education, or “Education,” the passion though not the substance of which we would all do well to imitate, even e-mulate. But how shall we presume? What, precisely, ought the teacher to do in the classroom to inspire the student to populate concepts, with ways of perceiving-with insights-here-tofore unavailable to him? For insight we as learners turn eagerly to such as Professor Weisse, whose rent and groceries we pay so that he can instruct us in the limit and extent of teaching and learning. Once in happier days of near-total neolithic ignorance, when first I stepped into a class-room, I had no need of Professor Weisse’s services, for I thoght I knew everything about teaching that was to be known. But each successive year I perceive I know progressively less. Calculated at the present rate on not presuming to know that which I know not, by about 1975 I suppose I shall know nothing at all. How I long for the omniscience of Professor Weisse and his brethren. How I lust for the priestly potency to seductively incantate “uni-versals within a particular culture” and “positively re-forcing (sic) life within a particular culture” and “being a significant other in the life of the learner.” And what pearl or great price would not I pay for the secret of “intellec-tualizing”? • Yet based on my experience there are a couple of things I think I know. 1. I know the creed of many “mod” or “modern” edu- cators, articulated so truly by Professor Weisse, is false. The ‘humanization’ or ‘spiritualization’ of education in this society has gone on for some time now. For the last few decades the hounds of educational theory, following the trail of John Dewey (1850-1952), have been hot on the traces of ‘change.’ Dewey’s was an original mind; his theories too complex to be detailed here. Generally, he extends the pragmatism of William James (1842-1910) into social, particularly educational, theory. Dewey advocated practical, or empirical, measurements of the worth of social and educational practices, so that practical intelligence and not social, political, philosophical abstractions would be ‘instrumental’ in the shaping of an individual’s and society’s environment. Dewey’s major premise asserted that truth was not static, final, eternal--but a living, organic, vital presence accessible to the questioning mind. Dewey knew that static truth is always couched in abstractions, vague and undefineable, and thus exempt from practical enquiry and subsequent modification and empiric analysis. Dewey knew what history teaches, that unquestioning obedience to abstractions enslaves the mind and spirit of the individual and society; that abstractions by their nature ignore the reality of limitations. But notice, of late, the practical effect of uncritical application by ‘professional; educators of Dewey’s desideratum. Empirically, we know that every organism erf a higher order, from a person to an anthropoid, needs ‘love,’ even though we cannot adequately define the term, either empirically or exponentially. And so the educational theorists have decreed that the public school is to supply that need. Sounds good, on the surface. Let us, then, ‘humanize’ education. Let us, then, ‘spiritualize’education. And the teacher shall cease being a real teacher, in the traditional or old- fashioned sense. Hence forth the teacher shall be a “significant other” in the life of the student so that the student might be “enculturated” into the “ongoing culture.” Perhaps, as one Professor of Education suggests, teachers and students might join one a-nother “in a circle of love.” From Dewey’s starting point we have come full circle. What is it to “humanize” education? What is it to “spiritualize” education? What is “love”? We cannot say, for these are abstractions of the highest order, uncritical acceptance of which induces terminal ignorance. And what about “encultu-rating” the individual into the “ongoing culture”? What if his culture is worthless, or pernicious, or barbaric, or steeped in ignorance-wholly or in part? How ironic that these potentials for tyranny should be the result of Dewey’s ideas, the ideas of a man devoted to liberation the individual from the chains of abstraction forged by “authorities” of one sort or another desiring to “encul-turate” the individual. There was , however, an important difference between the old-fashioned tyranny against which Dewey rebelled and the one we are faced with now. The new tyranny wants to dominate the whole personality of the student, all in the name of “love” and “humanity” of course. The old tyranny ended at the school house door at 3:30. 2. I know a teacher cannot be all things to the str-dent. Short of the millenium, not an immediate prospect, and reincarnation of us all as saints in a world new-born, there are natural limits to what the teacher , and what the teacher teaches, can accomplish for the learner. Professor Weisse asserts by inference that the teacher of a given discipline ought to be combination teacher, priest, father, mother, social-worker, psychiatrist, bosom buddy-a kind of universal nip-continued on page 35 Outstanding Awards given a! umni This year, for the first time, the UW-0 Alumni Association has established an award program to acknowledge the accomplishments of recent graduates. Six young alums, all of whom graduated less than eight years ago from UW-0 returned to campus on July 8th to receive Outstanding Young Alumni Awards at a dinner sponsored by the Alumni Association. Although the backgrounds and specialties of these six graduates varies widely, all have brought distinction to themselves and their university. From the class of 1964, Dr. Judith Grosenick received an award for her work with the emotionally disturbed. While at UW-O, Dr. Grosenick was elected Outstanding Senior Woman, and after receiving her bachelor’s degree summa cum laude, she earned her master’s and Ph.D. at the University of Kansas. Since 1968, Dr. Grosenick has been an associate professor and coordinator-area of the emotionally disturbed at the University of Missouri in Columbia. She has served on many professional committees, and among her present activities is service as an appointed member of the U.S. Office Of Education National Advisory Committee on the Education of Emotionally Disturbed Children. Under her guidance an undergraduate and a master’s degree program in the area of emotional disturbance has been developed at the University of Missouri, and she has served as a participant and consultant in special institutes held around the country involving research on the emotionally disturbed child. A second recipient, Dr. Robert Ackerman, class of 1965, received his masters degree from UW-0 in 1968, and his Ph.D. from the University of Indiana in 1971. In addition to his ties with UW-0 as a student, Dr. Ackerman served as clockwise: Judy Grosenick talkingto her parents. Dr. Anton Hopfinger, upper right. Dr. Robert Ackerman, class of 1965, lower. 62 Professional entertainers Joey Edmonds and Thom Curlev (front). assistant to the director of Financial Aids, assistant to the Dean of Students and Head Resident Hall Counselor here at UW-O. At Indiana, he served as an associate resident hall counselor and an assistant to the Dean of the School of Education. Dr. Ackerman is presently assistant to the Vice-president at Notre Dame University. Tom Curley and Joey Edmonds received the Outstanding Young Alumni Award for their efforts as a young comedy duo. They have been a team for a relatively short time but already their credits include appearances on the Johnny Carson, Dick Cavett, Merv Griffin, and David Frost shows. They’ve done the college circuit, and appeared with most of the best-known entertainers today, such as Dionne Warwick, Three Dog Night, Association, and Chicago. For his contribution in the field of sports, Ray Neveau, class of 1965 also received a Young Alumni Award. Mr. Neveau has achieved national recognition as a handball player and doubles champion and holds many titles in the game. In 1971 he and his partner won the U.S. H.A. doubles championship, and they now hold the •National A.A.U. title as well. Mr Neveau and his partner are the Canadian doubles champions and represented the United States in tournament play held in Ireland two years ago. Finally, Dr. Anton Hopfinger from the class of 1966 received an award for his outstanding achievement as a macromolecular scientist. Presently an assistant professor of macromolecular science and engineering at Case Western University, Dr. Hopfinger received his PhJ). at Case Western and attended Harvard Medical School as a post-doctoral research fellow. He is presently directing a research program at Case Western and will soon be presenting a paper to the International Biophysics Congress in Moscow. Besides the new Outstanding Young Alumni Award, the UW-0 Alumni Association is involved in numerous programs which relate to current undergraduate as well as alumni: The Young Alumni Awards The Alumni Commencement Rehearsal Reception for UW-0 Seniors Open House for Seniors at Pollock Alumni House One-Year Complimentary Membership in the Alumni Association for graduating seniors.

In an editorial entitled “System Takes Time,” Hansmann claimed that minority students “appear to be only grasping for more while passing off their gains as ‘tokenism’ and that minorities should acknowledge what had been done (for them) and realize that we all would like the university to provide for us better.” McEnroe, in a companion cartoon, pictured a small black with curly headed hair holding out his hands in supplication to a tall, white man who had out a suitcase entitled “AID” beside a dog house with “Con-ten” printed over the door. A teddy bear with “Director” printed on its chest was placed behind the black in front of the “Center.” According to most interpretations of the cartoon the dog house was a symbol for the multicultural center, and the tall white man symbolized the administration. The caption beneath the cartoon said that “You’re not my only child,” supposedly a message from the administration to the supplicating black. Reaction to the editorial-cartoon combination was fast in coming. The morning after the A-T appeared Dave Crusius, Oshkosh Common Councilman, came to the A-T office to protest the article’s appearance. Other student leaders called Hansmann to register their opinions. A few members of the A-Tstaff, including Peter Latner and Steve Samer, met with Hansmann and protested both the editorial and cartoon. Later that day Latner resigned as Arts Editor. His official reason was that he felt the editorial and the cartoon were racist and he didn’t want to put his time and energy into working for a biased publication. After Crusius had left, a delegation of minority students walked into the office and demanded to talk to Hansmann. The meeting was long and stormy. At one point an unidentified black told A-T photographer BUI Detlaff that he did not want his picture to appear in the A-T. Detlaff continued to take photographs, and the black attempted to grab Detlaff’s camera. Several minority students stepped in and calmed tempers down. During the meeting five minority students, Bias Falcon (Chicano), George Swamp (Native American), John Mireles (Chicano), JimShankle (Black), and Lois DeSUva (Black), emerged as spokesman. The substance of their criticism claimed that minority students are members of the student body, the A-T is a student newspaper, and that therefore Hansmann had no right to attack minorities since they form a part of'the A-T’s audience and ownership. They demanded that Hansmann write a retraction in the next issue of the paper, and that he research in depth the history of minority students and minority problems at UW-O. They claimed that Hansmann’s views had no basis at aU within historical fact. His claim that “the administration has been acting in good faith” is “bunk” they said, and they felt that they had worked long and hard for every minority gain on campus. Andrew Hopgood, Minority Programs Special Assistant, was particulary upset and said that “this (the editorial and cartoon) destroys everything on campus I’ve been working for.” Throughout the meeting Hansmann was apologetic and quiet. To the barrage of questions thrown at him he either declined to comment or said that he could not see why everyone was so upset. To him neither editorial or cartoon were racist in nature, and he thought the A-T had always given fair treatment to minority students and affairs. At one point during the conference Hansmann said that he would consider apologizing for the inclusion of the cartoon, but he decided to downplay the whole affair in future papers. The September 7th issue placed the story on the back page below a long story on 1972 politics. The controversy points out a long standing problem on the Oshkosh campus. Minority leaders have continually complained of prejudice on campus, and after Black Thursday in 1968 when black students revolted against what they considered flagrant discrimination, the Federal government reprimanded the administration for “discriminatory practices” There are several viewpoints that exist on campus concerning the problem, and at this point it would seem helpful to try and get the facts about several issues straight. -How much discrimination exists on campus? What do white students think about minority students? What are some minority students really like? What are the official goals set by nonstudent minority leaders? The following section attempts to find answers to these and other questions. 8 Bias Falcon has had himself committed to an institution, and lie’s not a bit pleased about the whole thing. The iastitu-tion is the University of Wis-consin-Oshkosh. The terms of his comm .It ment are a f ou r year stay, during which he earns 128 credits and a piece of ornate paper. The reasoas for his dissatisfaction are a little m ore comp' icated As personal values go, UVV-O is “just a means,” he said. “That piece of parchment never meant anything to me because that was something White America told me I had to do in order to compete. It’s just another stipulation, another obstacle. In terms of what this university means, it’s just another institution, a clearing-house that you have to go through; another obstacle to pass by.” He talked carefully, concisely, exercising what appeared to I a good deal of self-control. Bias Falcon, 20, Is a senior majoring in Political Science and Sociology. He is an active, member of Chicanos Unidos. “Chlcanos”, a phrase that originated on the.West Coast, usually applies only to Mexican-Amorlcans, but at the Multicultural Center on campus it is a catch-all term for those (with Spanish surnames) who find it difficult toenvision themselves wearing sombreros and sleeping in the shade all day. Bias is originally from Skidmore, Texas, a small town tha; failed to fulfill the American Dream for his family. So when Bias was seven, his family moved to Milwaukee, where he grew up the ha d way. He recalls the carefree days of child lood: “Tnere were always games in school: we were having a little hassle with Cuba-at the time, and people would always come up to me and say, ‘Well, which side are you going to be on when the war comes?’ By the tim-.- I was 11 or 12 I’d already realized that either I was going to need a gang to fend for myself, or I was just going to have to stay out of a lot of things. So I never went into sports or extracurricular activities. . .1 didn’t want to participate in something where I felt I wasn’t wanted,” “My friends were in a gang, so I thought that was the automatic thing to do,” he continued. “...We didn’t carry switchblades or anything like that. We just hung around together and took care of ourselves.,.1 went to a public school up to the fifth grade until my parents took m .- out becau.se I had a little trouble with the police. Just little things like fights.” After graduating from Bay-view High School in 1934, he had no idea of what he wanted to do. “I figured my parents didn’t have the money for me to go to school,” he said, “and if it (college) was like high school, I didn’t want to go anyway, so I thought the only thing I would do was find a job... So I worked for abO'j a year-- you know, 32 different jobs,” he said dryly. “And I really hated the idea of doing that all of my life...getting into a perpetual cycle of manual labor. I felt there just must be more to it (life) than that.” There was more to it than that; much more. A year after his graduation, he signed up for a four year hitch in the Marine Corps. “It was more of the same ’ he recalled. “I just couldn’t adhere to the military discipline, awl it seems like I had the same oeople standing over me that I had In the factories;..I didn’t like to take orders, so I didn’t make any rank. I decided after that I was going to do something where I wouldn’t have to come running everytime somebody snapped his fingers. . .” So here he is. Even though his family is from Texas, not Mexico, Falcon has little doubt as to where his sympathies lie. “I’m not from Mexico, and I don’t claim to be. The thing is that I feel that I am a Mexican...All my parents and all their relatives are from Texas, but I Bias Falcon never traced down my family lineage. There are probably som“ people from Mexico (in my family) that I don’t know ” But, he explains, “I don’t want to make it sound like the reason I’m in this house (Multicultural Center) is because I want to get away from everybody else. The reason we come here is because now we have a situation where we can relate to other Chlcano students and help them in terms of academic survival. We don’t have a (Chlcano) com nr: nit y here as such, but this (Chicanos Unidos) brings a little of that to this house... People get the idea that ‘well, maybe that’s where they want to stay, or that’s where they belong.’ We’ve tried to get the rest of the university to come here time and time again, and they’ve placed us alone in a corner, it seems, away from the rest of the university.” “When the term ‘Chlcano’ first originated in California, I realized that it was a call for our people to unite...If we’re not or if we can’t be proud of who we are, then who can? (One of) the reasons I’m here at the Multicultural Center is that I want to go back to places like South Division and Bay-view. The dropout rate in South Division High is 89% in continued on page 63 9 Although the university may tend to regard her as an em-barasslng reminder of its past as well as a hopeful view of its future, Rhonda Owens, a student belonging to the Afro-American Society, flatly disavows herself as belonging to either image. Each day gives her only enough time to deal with the present, she says. On November 21st, 1968, 94 black students walked into Dempsey Hall and gave an angry, although comparitively tame demonstration of their utter frustration, impatience and contempt for Roger Guiles and the system he stands for. Papers, furniture and other office paraphernalia were thrown around in Dempsey. Although the effects of Black Thursday would not be fully realized for weeks, months, or even years to come, the action of the blacks produced two Immediate results: One, it gave to Guiles' office what was probably its first and only lived-in appearance. Two, it resulted in immediate suspension or expulsion of these 94 young proponents of what the Oshkosh Daily Northwestern labeled ‘'anarchistic actions. Correction; make that three direct results. For those with any degree of cynical, geographic pride, Oshkosh briefly scratched out a place for itself on the map. Rhonda Owens, then an 18 year-old freshman from Milwaukee, was one of those fearsome anarchists. For her part in the day’s events, she was suspended from the university for the next 6 months, until June of 1969. Today she is a 22 year-old junior majoring in social welfare. For the past three years she has been married to Kenneth Owens, also a student here. They now have a two-year old son. UW-0 has also undergone some maturation in the four years since Black Thursday. There are finally available more black grants, scholarships, study programs, administrators, coordinators and faculty, not to mention the new multicultural center Mark Ha ns man stares at minority students during a protest which replaced the smaller, shoddier Afro-American house behind Reeve Union. When asked to give her recollections of Black Thursday, she smiles reflectively, almost wincing at the effects of the incident and the growing pains it left her with. It was a real helluva day, I swear...I had an 8:30 class and I didn’t want to go...I was sick in bed... My girlfriends came into my room and they kept coaxing and coaxing and... I went over there (Dempsey)... I just sat there and watched them. I didn’t do anything. At that time I was just a follower. I sat there and watched them tear it up... They hauled us down to court and we spent the day down there getting fingerprinted and all that good stuff.” She looks down at her shoes and smiles sardonically. My picture was taken with the thing around my neck; that really blew my mind. Fortunately, they didn’t lock the girls up in jail. They put them in the community gym with cot and old army blankets. I spent the night there...A girl in the dorm called my parents and told them I was in jail and they came down the next afternoon and got me out. What really surprised me was when they put a $250 bond on all of us. I didn’t think it was going over an A-T editorial and cartoon. to be that much...So I just sat it out. How did she react to the sudden transformation from an 18 year-old freshman to the role of arrested protester? I was scared because I didn't know what was happening...Everything happened so fast that I really didn’t know what was going on. As time went on I finally realized exactly how some of the people in Oshkosh were, especially the university administration. I don’t think they were really prepared to have any minorities up here because they didn’t know how to treat them, what their problems were, how to cope with them (and) deal with them to make them relax on this campus. ...‘68 put a big dent in my life. It was something that really happened to me. It was a turning point, more or less, or a growing-up period of actually realizing what life was all about; how people were really acting. I guess it kind of opened my eyes, she adds. Rhonda Owens, along with quite a few other minority students, recently underwent another eye-opener, this time courtesy of the Advance-Titan editorial page. The August 31 ft editorial came complete with an accompanying illustration drawn in what must have been a classic example of black-and- 10 white. When Rhonda Owens makes any sort of judgement, she is careful to point out that she speaks only for herself. The battery of minority students who responded to the editorial and cartoon also spoke for themselves. But as coincidence sometimes demonstrates, the reactions of all these students, as well as Rhonda Owens, sounded remarkably alike. “I don’t know exactly what they were trying to get across,” she mused, her voice dropping ruefully. “They did it in a pretty sly way, but it was in a pretty dirty way too. And the symbolism-- the center as a little dog house and a teddy bear for a coordinator.” By now her voice has dropped almost to a whisper; she couldn’t look up from her shoes if she wanted to. “I thought it was pretty bad, myself,” she says simply. She was part of the delegation that went to talk to Editor Mark Hansmann about the provocative issue, and memories of four years ago began to be rekindled. “It reminded me of 68...Everybody going into the A-T office, sitting on the desk, just looking at the guy (Hansmann) and listening to the questions going in one ear and out the other...You could tell he was scared, just like Guiles was when we were up in HIS office...I just sat there and looked at him. I didn’t say anything to him.” Her voice is back to its normal pitch by now, with an added tone of sarcasm thrown in as she explains how, in the middle of the confrontation, “the people on the (A-T) staff got up and started taking pictures. A good story right there in the office,” she laughed. Does she think the minority students threatened Hans-mann’s freedom of the press? “Well, in a way I think he threatened us,” she replied. “He threatened what we were trying to accomplish, threatened it in a way of making us think we got everything we should have, and should be sat- isfied...People can take criticism so far, but when you go overboard, past the point of no return, stepping on people’s toes, then you’re hitting them where it hurts...To print something like that makes it even worse...The freshmen who have never dealt with minorities before-- it gives them a bad impression of us from the beginning. It’s not giving us a chance at all.” Gratefully, the subject changes. Realizing that she is the only woman of the three minority people being interviewed (I congratulate myself on my immaculate non-chauvinist attitude) I ask her to comment on what I’m sure will be a great plug for womens liberation among black women. “Wow,” she says, kind of taken aback. “I can’t really say I believe in it and I can’t really say I don’t.” I can feel my ego beginning to deflate as she continues. “I’ve been too busy doing everything else to even think about womens liberation. I tease my husband about it every now and then, but its nothing really big with me...It hasn’t affected me at all. I may throw out a joke now and then about it, but its nothing big in my life that I go by or believe in...Maybe after I get out of school and start working, I might start thinking about things like that. Right now, I don’t really pay any attention to it. I’m just me, I guess,” she reasons quietly. I decide to keep the subject on ice until Florynce Kennedy returns for the next womens symposium. It’s starting to get late, and we both sense that there really isn’t much more to do or say. Tempting as it was to ask her what was so fascinating about her shoes that made her keep staring down at them, I decide instead on what would hopefully be a more relevant line of questioning. She finishes the session discussing what the university has given her, as well as what the advances and setbacks of the blacks on campus have been. Rhonda Owens Concerning her life here after Black Thursday, she says, “I think I would have missed a lot if I hadn’t come back. I may not have gotten as far as I am now, or as involved in anything as I am now.” Indeed, a listing of all her extracurricular activities is long enough to constitute an Afro-American Handbook, which incidentally, is just what she happened to write one summer. Between classes, the Multicultural Center, a host of committees, not to mention a husband and baby, it was no wonder she kept staring down at her shoes so much. She was probably too tired to lift her head up all the way. Black Thursday pops up again. “I guess I’m kind erf grateful about it, and what’s happened,” she continues, “even though it’s not a very nice thing to remember--get-ting kicked out of school, being put in jail and losing a year out of school, plus all that money. In the long run I think it was really worthwhile. I think it helped me a lot. I grew up a little more, got involved, interested. Ithinkthat’s what counts.” Is this a racist university, I ask her. “In my opinion,” she answers, “I guess you could say it is, after all I’ve been continued on page 63 11 He reminds you of one of those guys who somehow manages to make it off the reservation without getting himself killed or thrown into Jail. After the usual eight or ten years of self-denial and hard work, he gets through college and law school, goes back to his people, and triumphantly wins them the keys to the kingdom. Granted, I've been watching too many late night movies, but I couldn’t get it out of my mind that he is, after all, young, half-Indian, calm, self-assured, articulate, attractive and purposeful. God, would he ever be a TERRIFIC lawyer. His name is George Swamp. He's 22, and is presently aStu-dent Senator, as well as Student Coordinator for the 25 member Native American Students Association, referred to of all things, as NASA. He graduated from UW-0 last year after forming NASA, but is staying here to take pre-law courses on an Indian Scholarship grant. He also has a commission as an officer in the Army Reserves, and will leave in January for three months of active duty. For the present, though, he spends what free time he has in a small office on the second floor of the Multi-Cultural Center, directly above the offices that are occupied by the Chicanos and Afro-American students. The house itself, despite claims of tokenism by many of the minority students, is well worth the struggle it took to achieve it. The Native American office, where Swamp was interviewed, is quiet, clean, well furnished. The calm, efficient aura it exudes seems to contradict the strife and hassling that took place to win it. “It took us an entire sem-ester-and-a-half just to get this creation here,” Swamp says. “As far as the furnishings are concerned, we had to walk out of this house last year. And we didn’t ask for the carpeting or things like that. We just wanted enough chairs, facilities and supplies.” George Swamp By talking not only to Indians, but to the other minority students as well, one gets the impression that many of them have spent their lives trying to hurdle obstacles that never seem to appear before the John and Mary Smiths of Anytown, USA. For George Swamp, the impression still sticks. Appleton, Wisconsin, where he grew up, wasn’t Anytown. “I’m fortunate because I’m not as Indian as a lot of kids are, in the sense that I’m not as visible. We can hide it a lot easier if we’re not full Indian. I’m half Oneida. For the most part, I really show up as Indian, like in the winter, when all the kids lose their suntans and I still don’t. . . . People kind of wonder sometimes--! always had a crewcut when I was a little kid; my mother always liked that. But what that did was made it harder for people to recognize my black hair, which is one little tip-off. . .It’s a very strange thing to have people disassociate themselves from you simply because you are who you are. You were born that way, and nothing you can say or do changes it. And since my mother always told me, “you’reonly part Indian; don’t worry about it, you’re white,” it was very hard for me to understand what was happening. . .When I was in elementary school I had my first realization of what ‘race’ is. It came from this guy who was a real bully. . .he was going to beat me up, and he said some things about being Indian. Something just came through me, something that was so deep that I could not control it because I do not fight. But for a moment I felt something that raged inside of me. It still scares me. . .When I finally calmed myself down, this guy was laying flat on the ground,” he said. His face loosens up; his body relaxes, almost as if to say the past is over for him. Now he can lean back and talk about the two things that seem to please him most: the Multi-Cultural Center and the future of the American Indian. “Of the problems we have, one is the stereotypes. Turn on the westerns--you’ll see the cavalry running in and beating off all the Indians. But why were the Indians attacking? Wasn’t it that for the 17th or 18th time the white people had violated the treaty they signed with this tribe?” Can NASA then, help to get rid of these assumptions? Swamp thinks it can. Part of its purpose, he said, is “so they (the student body) can start understanding that an Indian is not somebody to ride on a horse and shoot at, (or) that we run around with tomahawks and breechcloths and feathers in our hair. We are students; we are human beings. We have a culture that should be understood and not Just laughed at. Indeed, we were here first, and there’s a reason why we were able to live here for 20,000 years without polluting the streams, without having genocide practiced on other races.” “This house is also a place where kids can come in ... and very bluntly, very naively ask any questions they want to. Really, what’s so terrible about asking a naive question? You continued on page 55 There are presently six Arab students and five Arab professors on the UW-Oshkosh campus. Do these people feel that they are part of a minority group on the campus? According to Dr. Farouk Sankari, an Arab assistant professor of the Political Science Department, they do not. When asked about the Arab students specifically, he replied: “They don’t feel like minority students because they’re not Americans, but foreigners. They don’t identify with the problems or grievances of minority students here because they haven’t experienced a cultural identity crisis or social deprivation-I think they feel veryalien from the minority student problem.’’ Dr. Sankari is not an advisor for the Arab students, but he does work with them when they have problems. He emphasized the fact that there is nothing institutionalized about the interaction between Arab students and professors. As he put it, “we just seek each other out.” Some Arab students students go to him for help after they have been here a short time because they don't like it here at all; they feel alienated at the beginning of their stay. “In general,” Dr. Sankari said, “the biggest problem that these students face is the cultural shock they feel at first, and just trying to understand what the American way of life is all about.” Differences in food and drink, the dating system, and the educational system itself are basic problems that these students must cope with. Dr. Sankari cited the difficulty some Arab students experience in making friends as being one of their greatest frustrations. To many Arab students and other foreign students, too, it seems that American students are so preoccupied with their social activities or their employment that they don’t have the time to really get to know foreign students, he said. Arab students are also very committed to their studies and, because of this, are frustrated when they see American students who are not as academically committed as they are. “It’s surprising, though, that they do adjust rather quickly to these differences in values and in the educational system itself-they do very well,” Dr. Sankari commented. He finds that Arab students encounter some language and reading difficulties, and that the testing procedures are at first confusing for them. Because these students are generally slow readers and have such great amounts of reading to do, he often advises them to take the reading technique course which is offered on campus; usually this helps alleviate the problem. Dr. Sankari noted that the differences in the dating procedure presents a problem that is not so easily solved, and one that causes the greatest alienation for the Arab students. Because of their different cultural and religious background, it is not easy for the Arab students to accept the promiscuity of American women and the American dating procedure itself. The romantic ideal of the Arab woman is always in their minds, Dr. Sankari said. All of the Libyan students whom he has known have married women from their own countries. He finds it interesting to see how differently each individual student reacts to the American culture, even though they share some of the basic problems mentioned above; some students assimilate certain aspects of the culture and others are turned off by the very same aspects. Originally from Lebanon, Dr. Sankari came to the United States supported by his family. He received his B.A. from Pomona College, Calif., and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Claremont Graduate School, Calif.; he has been teaching at UW-Oshkosh since January, 1969. He feels that foreign students, and Libyan students in particular, are very lucky to be able to come here subsidized completely by their government. Thus, these students now have no financial problems, and have the advantage of usually being able to Dr. Sankari finish their education here on time. Dr. Sankari is well known for the informal parties and dinners that he and his wife often have for both the Arab students and the students from his own classes. This year he is planning to involve Arab students and faculty and his students in various activities. One event in which he hopes many of these people will join in is that of “Ramadan.” A traditional Moslem custom, celebrated every year from October 9 to November 9, Ramadan is a month of fasting in which people abstain from all of the pleasures of life from dawn until sunset every day; at sunset all of the people break fast together. At the end of that month there is a three-day festival known as “Eid Sagir” when everybody feasts together and gives sweets and gifts to the children. “It’s almost like a three-day Christmas,” Dr. Sankari remarked. He hopes also to celebrate the “Big Eid” festival, two months and ten days later, in which the Moslems perform the traditional pilgrimmage to Meca, Saudi Arabia, and celebrate the custom of a sheep slaughter. He is looking forward to celebrating these customs and other activities with interested students and faculty. 13 Who are the Chicano students and what are their needs and problems? Mrs. Alma Riddell, Advisor to Chicano students at UW-0 since May, 1972, explained in an interview that Chicano people are all Mexican-Amerleans. Though is was once a derogatory term used to describe Mexican-Americans, the word, “Chicano” has now been adapted by Mexican-Amorican people to symbolize their unity and the common goal toward which they are working. Apart of that goal is to get rid of past stereotypes white people have had toward them. Most of the Chicano students on the UW-0 campus are from Racine, Wautoma, Sheboygan, and Oak-field, Wis.; there are also many from Texas. Mrs. Riddell pointed out that it is very difficult to compile an accurate count of the Chicano students on campus because there are many other students on campus who have names that sound Spanish but who are not Mexican-Americans. She said that there are approximately sixty students here with Spanish surnames, and twenty of these are Mexican-Americans. “Before I accepted the advisorship, the Chicano students had no one to go to with their needs and problems. They felt they needed a mediator between them and the administration and the rest of the student body,” Mrs. Riddell said. Because many of the Chicanos already knew her, they asked Mrs. Riddell if she would be their advisor. She was willing to try it. “I feel it has worked out well so far-there’s a lot of communication between the students and me. I pass their needs ontotheadministration,” she continued. She finds one of the biggest problems freshman and sophomore Chicanos face is that of staying in school. It is often hard for these students to adjust to the university academically because often they are not well prepared; they have come from .on area of poverty, and have had an inferior education, according to Mrs. Riddell. 14 “They don't grow up thinking college is for them, but rather ‘it's for someone else,”’ she remarked. As might be expected, another pressing problem for the Chicanos is their lack of finances. There is usually some type of financial aid available for these students when they come to the university, but at least 50% of the Chicanos absolutely NEED financial aid or they can not “make it” at the university, Mrs. Riddell said. She added that quite often the student’s family back home expects the young person to give them some financial support; it is taken for granted that even though the young person is away from home, he will fulfill his responsibility to his family, since this is a part of the Mex-ican-American culture. Thus, the Chicanos face pressures of going home on weekends in addition to those at school. Mrs. Riddell was quick to add, however, that she thinks “this is a problem all poor people face-not just minority students.” There is a social problem for Chicanos, too. “The ADVANCE TITAN (August 31st issue which contained an editorial and cartoon about minority students) did a good job of destroying any understanding that they (the Chicano students) have worked Mrs. Riddell to build between the community and white students and minorities. It (ADVANCE TITAN) made us look like a bunch of fools who are always asking and begging for more with our hands outstretched,” Mrs. Riddell said. “We haven’t been trying to create special services and special everything just for minority students-that wouldn’t work at all,” she continued. One of the things Mrs. Riddell and the Chicano students are striving for is abetter relationship with everyone else on campus. She feels there are many people who don’t even know who the minority students are, where the Multi-Cultural Center is, and what the background of Chicano students is. According to Mrs. Riddell, “one of the complaints often heard by white students is, ‘why do the minority students have to have a Multi-Cultural Center-why can’t they just socialize with everyone else, and like everyone else does, in the Union?”’ Her reply was that the Multi-Cultural Center serves a purpose similar tothe purpose of fraternities and sororities for white students, and that it is a good place for Chicano students to really feel at home and to be comfortable. She emphasized that the Multicultural Center welcomes ALL students on campus.” “Iwould like to hold open houses every two or three months for everyone to see what is happening,” Mrs. Riddell commented. She added that Chicano students hold an open meeting on the first and third Wednesday of every month at 7:00 P.M. at the Center. “It’s a time when we’d like to invite anyone to come join in our meetings, especially anyone with a Laiin background-their problems might be similar to those of the Chicanos-poverty is the same everywhere,” she said. The Chicano students are conducting a note-taking service this semester, and notes area-vailable to any student. Notes are available at the Union, but may be purchased at the Multi-Cultural Center, too, Mrs. Riddell explained. She hopes students on campus will feel freer now to stop at the Center, especially if they have a specific reason to do so. Those Chicano students preparing the notes are “A” students who have taken the designated course, and have been recom mended by their professors for the task. In addition to the note-taking service, the Chicano students often arrange to have films, lectures, or special guest speakers. Mrs. Riddell said that these events are open to all interested students, faculty, and community people. Posters and notices are posted. In conjunction with the Oshkosh Public Museum, Chicano students are planning to devote the entire month of March 16-April 16 to a study of Mexico. Mrs. Riddell explained that the aim of this month-long study is for the university and community to perhaps better understand the Mexican culture. Throughout the month the Oshkosh Public Museum will display Mexican cultural items, as will Reeve Memorial Union if it can bear-ranged. In addition, there will be a series of lectures and films, and a slide show of arts from the National Museum of Mexico City, with an emphasis on archaeology.“The slide show should be excellent,” Mrs. Riddell remarked. She is also in the process of trying to organize a Mexican dinner with tickets sold in advance to a limited number of people. Mrs. Riddell is originally from Mexico. She is a graduate of Santiago State College with a degree in education and a minor in Spanish. Before coming to Oshkosh, she organized an adult literacy class while staying in Liberia, North Africa for fourteen months. “I’ve been a jack of all trades and master of none,” Andrew Hopgood jokingly said, in reference to his job as Spec- ial Assistant for Minority Programs onthe UW-Oshkosh campus. Having been in his position since September, 1971, Mr. Hopgood is able to say that, “it’s been a hectic year--I’ve met with a great deal of frus-tration--but in the ultimate end many positive steps have been made for the advancement of Black students.” Mr. Hopgood cites the move from the old Inter-Cultural Center to the new Multi-Cultural Center concept as the biggest, most visual accomplishment for minority students on the campus. Another accomplishment for minority students, but one not as easily evaluated or recognized, involves the changing of attitudes of both the minority students and other people in the university and the community. “Broadening the thinking and the scope of minority students on campus has been a big challenge,” he said. Mr. Hopgood has met the challenge, however, and he feels that he has been successful thus far in “trying to get the minority students into the mainstream of university life.” The active involvement of minority students in such university activities as the Allocation Committee and the OS A Concert Committee is positive evidence of a change in minority student attitudes. This change of minority student attitude is essential to Mr. Hopgood; he feels that if they can broaden their thinking, then perhaps other people in the university and the community can also change their attitudes toward Black and other minority students. One of his major tasks is to retain Black students on the UW-Oshkosh campus, Mr. Hopgood said. Thus, he meets periodically with those students who experience problems and difficulties. Interestingly enough, he finds that most Black students experience difficulties in attaining good grades rather than in maintaining a good self-concept, although he Andrew Hopgood feels that the two areas are inter-related. “Many Black students have a favorable self-concept image,” he said, “but they generally have to work harder than white students do to get good grades. This may be because of a disadvantaged high school education or because of other significant factors.” Mr. Hopgood feels that the academic success of Black students is largely dependent upon the faculty, and that there has to be a warm, understanding relationship between both Black students and faculty members. He went on to say that “it’s frustrating for these students to run into the racial biases of teachers--they have so many other frustrations to cooe with as it is.” “There’s a lot of (Black) students who really want to make it academically-who want to be successful,” Mr. Hopgood continued. This is especially true for the incoming Black students; they have quite a positive attitude, generally, he added. Thus far, one of his major responsibilities has been in helping Black students meet their “developmental task of being successful academically,” Mr. Hopgood said. He fulfills this responsibility in several ways, sending out mar- 15 ginal failing notices to, and scheduling conferences for, those students who are having academic problems. Since he has been working to meet educational needs of Black students, Mr. Hopgood thinks that it is now time to try and meet their social needs, too. He said that the Multi-Cultural Center will be a big aid in making the necessary social advancements for Black students. A big goal of Mr. Hopgood and the Black students is to recruit more Black students to the university. Presently, there are 137 Black students on the UW-Oshkosh campus; the aim for next year is a projected 200 Black students. To help reach the projected number, Mr. Hopgood, with the aid of Black students and various faculty members, is planning and carrying out Black student recruitment programs. One such program, called “Debbie's Visitation Weekend,” was conducted in Oshkosh on October 13-14. The program was named as such in tribute to Deborah Ann Douglas, a UW-Oshkosh junior who proposed the plan for bringing minority students from the Milwaukee area for a weekend at UW-Oshkosh. Her proposal was submitted to UW-O Chancellor Interviews with Bias Falcon, Rhonda Owens, and George Swamp by Peter Latner. Interviews with Dr. San-kari, Mrs. Riddell, and Andrew Hopgood by Kay Bloechl. Editor's note: These interviews are strictly those of the individual students and not necessarily those of every minority student. 16 Roger E. Guiles who approved the idea and directed that it be carried out. Fifty students from North Division, Washington, and Rufus King High School in Milwaukee were brought by bus to Oshkosh for a two-day introduction to the university as guests of the university. The 25 young men and 25 young women lived in university dormitories, ate in the university food commons, attended university classes, and met with university students and faculty in informal conferences and general sessions. Each young person was “adopted” by a Big Brother or Big Sister, many of them being members of the Afro-American Society and others being interested student volunteers. Working with Deborah as student recruitment coordinator for the Afro-American Society was Mrs. Rhonda Owens, a junior at UW-O, from M ilwaukee. On the faculty planning committee were David Weidemann, UW-O Director of Admissions; four faculty members working with minority groups: Wellington Cox and Velvet Bush: both Assistant Deans of students, Andrew Hop-good and Mrs, Alma Riddell, who is advisor to the Chicano students. When asked about financial problems of Black students on campus, Mr. Hopgood replied, ‘ Finane ial aid is always a prob-lem in the eyes of these students.” He said that he and the Black students are very interested in recruiting a Black person to work in the Financial Aids Department. However, though it has been discussed, this goal has not as yet been met. One accomplishment he noted was that of the university hiring more Black faculty members. When he first came to UW-O there were only five or six Black faculty members; now there are ten. He is extremely pleased with this advancement. Originally from Milwaukee, Mr. Hopgood graduated from UW-Platteville in 1970 with a B.S. in Industrial Management. Following his graduation, he was appointed Director of Building Operations at the UW-Platteville Union. “I got tired of working with buildings and decided I wanted to work with people, so I came to Oshkosh,” he remarked laughingly. Mr. Hopgood shows visible enthusiasm for his work. As he put it, “every day is a different day, but it's good--it's educational for me, too.” He is presently working on his Masters Degree in Guidance Counseling.

Though the chart is probably not 100% per cent accurate (Andrew Hopgood, Special Assistant for Minority Programs, claims that the leeway for error is approximately two percent), its figures still tell a bleak story. Only one black student, one Native American, and two Chicanos represented on the chart are from Oshkosh (which admittedly has a low minority population), and only 95 minority students have been drawn from the large minority population in Milwaukee. 28 blacks have come from out of state. The 23 Native Americans and 15 Chicanos representing their cultures is far below the percentage of Native Americans and Chicanos living within the radius of UW-O’s drawing area. Of course, the problem the administration faces is immense. In Milwaukee minority schools are often inferior to predominantly white schools, and in other large minority population centers the problems are much the same. However, leaders of minority groups on campus are openly critical of the administration for its failure to reorui% and many highly influential and knowledgeable individuals have claimed that the Oshkosh administration has simply been too late and slow in their efforts to achieve reasonable integration. Eventhe Civil Rights Commis-sion of the United States accused Oshkosh of being behind most other state universities in this regard. The average amount of financial aids offered to minority students is higher than the average amount offered to white students, and a greater percentage of minority students attending Oshkosh receive financial aid, but the number of minority students attending the university overshadows these statistics. The question is, why do so few choose to come? The reasons are complex: Oshkosh has a racist reputation among minority groups, many minority students are not prepared for college when they reach college age; but the administration has obviously failed to reach stated goals. If a greater percentage of minority students is desirable, a greater effort at recruitment is obviously necessary. The Poll of Prejudice: In an effort to find out how much prejudice exists on the Oshkosh campus, the New Quiver conducted a poll which rand urnly sampled the opinions of 140 students. In an effort to keep the sample as unbiased as possible, poll questions were asked in the three dining rooms of Reeve Memorial Union, in dining commons areas, in Polk Library, and in both Clow Social Science Center and Halsey Science Center between classes. There were ten questions asked including control questions. The results from eight questions were reduced to percentages: 1. Have you read the A-T editorial and looked 17 at the cartoon concerning minority students printed In the August 31st Issue? 60% of the students answered Yes. 40% answered No. 2. Do you agree or disagree with the views stated In the editorial? (Students were given a copy of both cartoon and editorial after answering the first question.) 56% agreed with Hansmann’s views. 40% disagreed. 2% had no comment. 2% both agreed and disagreed. 3. Do you personally believe that the cartoon has a racial slant either for or against minority students? 76% believed the cartoon was slanted against minority students. 23% that the cartoon was neither slanted for or against minorities. 1% had no comment. 4. If the cartoon is racially slanted, for or against minorities, do you believe the slant is justified? 38% believed the slant was justified. 58% did not think it was justified. 2% thought that it was justified in some ways but not all. 2% had no comment. 6. Do you know any minority students attending UW-O? 74% of the students answered Yes. 26% answered No. 7. Are the minority students friendly or unfriendly in your opinion? 68% considered minority students friendly. 6% believed they were unfriendly. 11% had no comment. 15% thought that some were friendly, some unfriendly depending upon the individual. 8. Do you wish to see more or less minority students attend UW-O? 66% wanted to see more. 9% preferred to see less. 15% thought that it made no difference one way or another. 10% had no comment. 9. Are you a Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior, Graduate Student, or Faculty member? 22% of those polled were Freshmen. 19% Sophomores. 20% Juniors. 34% Seniors. 3% Graduate Students. 2% Faculty. The two questions that could not be tabulated were: 5. Could you give a definition of the term, “minority students.” The first was based on a racial basis, “Anyone discriminated against,” “Blacks, Indians, Chic-anos,etc.”; and the second on a numerical basis, “A student not in the majority.” A few refused to admit the existence of minorities, and a handful gave answers such as “Anyone with frizzy hair and different colored skin.” About the only important information revealed by the home-town question was that 89% of those interviewed were from Wisconsin. The major reason given for agreeing with the editorial claimed that the minorities are “asking for too much so everyone’s getting ripped off.” The major reason given for disagreement was that the editorial was “too cliche.” Alienation is evidenced in the editorial itself. The minority students are, “they,” we are “we ” ” The poll seems to indicate several key attitudes toward minority students on campus. First of all, it shows that Hansmann spoke for the majority of students in his editorial. 56% agreed with his views, and almost all of them could tell the interviewer why they agreed. Secondly, 58%, or a majority, of students did not feel that printing the cartoon was justified. Since 76% thought that the editorial was “racially slanted” against minority students, and 38% believed that the cartoon was justifiable, some prejudice obviously does exist on campus. However, only 6% of the students interviewed thought that minority students on campus are unfriendly, and only 11% had no comment. This would seem to indicate that the prejudice which does exist is not generally deep seated, but more of a vague pre-disposition against minority students. 9% of those interviewed would prefer to see less minority students come to Oshkosh, 15% did not care, and 10% had no comment, but 66% wanted to see minority students increase in number on the campus. Obviously a large majority are at least partially favorable to minorities. They would possibly prefer that minority leaders soften their demands and increase their patience, but they are not for turning minorities away from campus either. Hard core racism does exist, and minority leaders are concerned about this minority, but they have obviously made a few gains amidst the student body. 9k9fc9iC9k3k rr rrrrprp ' 18 International Students and Oshkosh Many new students find it hard to adjust to college iife styles and problems, but for a large number of students, this process is doubly difficult. There are over 120 international students who come to Oshkosh tocontinue their educations. Somr come from as far away as Africa or China. Almost all geographic locations are represented at UW-O, but whether students come from India or Denmark, their problems tend to be similar. Although most foreign students speak English extremely well, many have difficulties in classroom situations. Lectures are often toofastand too disorganized and vocabulary and special idiomatic expressions tend to be troublesome. The American method of testing also creates problems. Most international students are used to essay type tests, and find it difficult to adjust to the multiple choice method. It can also be difficult to adjust to American food. Food preferences vary greatly and a drastic change in diet can be a serious problem. Immigration regulations can also cause problems 'or international students. Student visas must be obtained and immigration regulations must be known and observed. Money can be a source of difficulty to all students, but the problem is magnified for international students. Changes in currencyare difficult to comprehend, and the value concept o! money is not based on any specific standard. International students do not understand the high cost of living in America and often find they need much more money than they originally anticipated. In an attempt to relieve som- of these difficulties, UW-O has prepared a special handbook for international students. This book contains pertinent information on cultural matters, employment, slang expressions, and housing, as well as on federal and university policies. Since many international students become homesick, UW-O arranges visits with American families. An International Relations Club has been organized and various other international student groups have formed associations. Socialization is often difficult for international students because they spend a great deal of time studying and tend to be more reserved than Americans. There is a definite need for American students to get to know the international students better so that both groups can benefit from a worthwhile situation. Chinese Students Cope with New World Among the wide variety of international students at UW-O, there is a large group of Chinese students who choose to continue their education by working toward undergraduate and” graduate degrees involved in a variety ofdifferent fields, the vast majority of these students are from Hong Kong and come to the United States after graduating from their own secondary school systems. There are few institutions of higher learning in Hong Kongso, annually, great numbers of Chinese students come to Arne rican universities to develop their interests and skills. Since most Chinese students know a great deal about the United States before they arrive, few experience severe cultural shock. They learn English in their secondary schools so the language barrier is not as might be expected. Interview with some Chinese students: Lee Wai Him, Angel-ine Man, Edmond Kwong. Many cultural differences do exist, however, which necessitate adjustments in many respects. Chinese students feel a much greater attachment to their homes and families than the average American student. The Chinese culture is steeped in the concept of family responsibility. Social welfare is not a common practice since family ties are so strong. This bond makes it very difficult for some Chinese students to leave their relatives and also promotes a strong bond between Chinese students in America and their homeland. It is difficult for Chinese students to adjust to the university itself. Hong Kong is a busy cosmo-politian community and, in comparison, Oshkosh is starkly rural. Chinese students are more used to busy city life, and find Oshkosh rather isolated. They find that the educational system here is not as disciplined as that in their home countries. Socialization is also somewhat different. Most Chinese social activities revolve around extremely large groups of people instead of single dates or small gatherings. Representatives of the Chinese Student Association, Angeline Man, Wai Him Lee, and Edmund Kwong do not feel that the Chinese students are discriminated against at the University. They 19 Minority Students Strive for Better Campus By Andrew Hopgood In the fall of 1968, the black students of UW-Oshkosh, tried to establish a Black Student Union. The black students held regular meetings to discuss better ways to become recognized on campus as an organization and to include in the school’s curriculum, the study of black people and history. A list of demands were presented to President Roger E. Guiles in October, 1968. The demands were the following: To provide a structure and furnishings for a Cultural Center for blacks, to hire black instructors, implement a course in the following areas of black culture-history, literature, and language; to activate a Black Student Fund which will be used to secure black speakers, purchase black literature and to aid the financing of the Afro- American Center. An Advisory Committee for Program for Culturally Distinct Students was set up to deal with this matter. For several weeks no word was heard from the Committee and the black students were beginning to get very impatient. On November 20, 1968, a meeting of the Black Student Union took place in the Newman Center. The demands were discussed and the impatientness of the black students was seen. As the meeting continued many black students felt that the entire Black Student Union should visit President Guiles and find out why it was taking the administration so long to reply to the demands. The Black Student Union then chose the next morning, Thursday, November 21, 1968 to visit President Guiles. The time that was originally chosen was 10:30 but was changed to 8:30 by the majority of the black students. By 8:30 on November 21, the majority of black students were in President Guiles’ office, waiting for President Guiles to come in. President Guiles entered his office about 8:45 A.M. and a spokesman for the black students asked him about the demands that were submitted approximately five weeks ago. The reply President Guiles gave did not satisfy the black students and the destruction began. After several hours passed, the police were called since the black students did not leave. Later the 94 black students were arrested and were hauled away in rented trucks. Each black student was charged with unlawful assembly and disorderly conduct. Bail was set at $250.00 per person. Many blacks were put in cells after they were booked. Some were taken to nearby towns and placed in jail there. The girls were put in the community recreational gym for the night. Cots and blankets were given to each girL 20 Each student was allowed one phone call and some parents came for their sons and daughters that night. The majority, though, remained overnight and some even spent two nights in jail. A meeting of the parents of the 94 black students was held to discuss the future of their sons and daughters. The parents confronted President Guiles with the situation and wanted their sons and daughters reinstated in school until the court hearings were over. But President Guiles only responded that the situation was in the hands of the Board of Regents. After long meetings and conferences the Board of Regents expelled the 94 black students until the summer of 1969. In the court hearings the black students were found guilty of unlawful assembly and the disorderly conduct charge was dropped. After months had passed, the students were fined $132.00 each and were let go. By June, 1969 only a few of the black students returned to the university. Many of the students found jobs and continued to work, a few went to other colleges, but many were caught in the middle not knowing what to do. In the fall of 1969, the black students received a house on Elmwood and it was called the Afro-American Society-Inter-Cultural Center. The Center was furnished with furniture, a record player, and television. It was set up for the meetings of the Afro-American Society, for tutoring, a library of blackbooks and magazines, and a place where blackstudents could socialize. The Inter-Cultural Center was a home away from home for the black students. It was a place where they could be themselves and relax. It was a place where they could release their hostilities and anxieties that plagued them. The black students found that they could identify with each other better and discuss their problems among one another in a comfortable atmosphere. As a result of Black Thursday, the Mexican-Americans and Native-Americans began to request from the administration cultural centers to fulfill their own needs. From this the concept of the Multi-Cultural Educational Center was born. It is the philosophy of the Multi-Cultural Center to bridge the gap that exists among the minority students on the UW-0 campus and to eliminate the idea of separate housing. Making this philosophy work has been a hard and difficult task. For example (1) The Afro-Americans were reluctant in moving because of fear of losing self-identity. (2) Organization of Mexican-Americans and Native-Americans. (3) Bureaucratic delays from the administration in funding and furnishing the House which resulted in Boycott. (4) Damages caused by the Advance-Titan in presenting a poor image of Minorities on the UW-0 campus. Id Following the boycott of the Center, money was made available from the administration for furnishings and repairs of the House. Programs are now being carried out in the Center. A tutorial program is available to the students. A library of black literature is being initiated also. Besides the offices of the Afro-American Society, Chicanos and Native-Americans, there are Draft Counselors available and staff from the Counseling Center also to help the minority students with problems that may arise. Meetings of the minority groups are held and meetings of the BlackStudies Committee are also held in the Center. WITH BLACK FACE The stars laugh and laugh, Moving in an ocean of laughter (Moving water-laughter), Until the sky Can hold no more And joins in laughing With black face And shining teeth. Ethel Davis 21 photos by diane obermeier bv i.s. raaman ® ®orseapple corners is a small town way up north in Idaho, where the winters are cold and seem to last most of the year, except for a colorful couple of months we call spring, it's a typical small town where everybody knows everybody else, the reason being that most all are related in one way or another, one bad thing about all this is your neighbor usually knows what you and everybody else in town is doing, will be doing next week or what you've done in the past and are trying like the devil to hide, it's a rare thing for a secret to last more than a day or two in the corners. the letter i'd been waiting for came early one morning and said that i could go to college at uw-o. later that day the townfolk came up to me, shook my hand and all and gave me their congratulations with just a faint hint of a snicker in their throat, i couldn’t figure out how they knew, later i learned that the mailman, being a typical small town mailman, had told everyone during his deliveries that iwas going to oshkosh. he usually knew what was going on before it happened. my neighbors kept bothering me with the question WHY had i chosen a place with the name like oshkosh to go to college, i really wasn't too sure myself, so i told them it was just as good a place as any-i guess, they kept after me, telling me i should stay home and save my money, my great-grandfather said that anybody who would name a town like that had to be pretty stupid, so he must have figured that the school probably wasn’t any good either. the reason i guess that all the folks from f.he corners seemed a bit leary of oshkosh was cuz they didn’t really know what it was. i’ve been here a few weeks myself and i still don’t know what it is. most of us thought oshkosh meant a bad omen or something, we used things like “he's from east oshkosh” for people like the town drunk and maybe the dog catcher. anyway, my interest had been aroused with all this talk and no matter how much the townsfolk tried, i had made up my mind to come to oshkosh. i figured that since i am now playing college here, my first topic should probably be about the school. the campus seemed like a huge city to me the first time i walked thru its hallowed grounds, it was like all the students were in such a hurry they didn’t even want to take the time to enjoy a nice morning, they seemed like they could just hardly wait to get to class, everybody was Horseapple Corners zooming around with their uw-zerot-shirts and ones that said oshburg and oshpit-i was beginning to wonder if i had the right town afterall. someone told me later that it was all a big joke on the town and that this is the one and only oshkosh where they made the bib overalls. he also said something about oshkosh and how it used to be the sawdust capital of the world, i sorta stared at him like i’d been hit by lightning and then thanked him for the bit of information, i figured the folks back home sure'd like to know about the sawdust and that this is where they make those over-alls. this place really bothered me at first, it seemed as if everybody was looking at me when i was walking to class or home, especially in the union, as soon as i’d open the door a thousand heads would start staring at me with half-eaten hot dogs sticking out of their mouths, i’d try and sorta blend myself into the walls or stare up at the ceiling or down at my untied shoes and walk fast as i could to the other side. it’s kind of a neat place now that i’ve gotten used to it, altho i don’t make a habit to waste much time there, everybody’s got their own group or table; it looks that way to me anyway cuz the same people always sit at the same tables whenever i come by. maybe the union man hired professional chair sitters or something to sit there and draw in all that business. the union’s got to be the neatest building in town tho-or on this side of the river, the only gripe i’ve got is it seems that they have as much sense as our family mule when it comes to selling things, the trick is not to have your prices higher than the guy down the road but to have them lower, i learned that for the last five winters working for gus’s general store back home, it seems dum that students who are supposed to be smart, wouldn’t want to walk a couple of blocks to save themselves some money, the union isn’t the only one that’s a little strange when it comes to trying to sell stuff tho. they have this candy bar machine in the basement of radford hall that sells candy bars for five cents more than the union 50 yards away, i don’t understand it. there’s nothing special about those candy bars; maybe they just charge you five cents to push that button, seems to be kind of a waste cuz it’s over so fast. anyway, by next month i hope i’ll’ve gotten out of this school and see what doings are going on in the big city. 22 lUfiat Mikes a Qood Qeicker Qveit? by terry langan The door swung open and in popped a miniature, red-faced Falstaff, William Shakespeare’s most dynamic character. He was smiling and there was a special twinkle in his eyes which seemed to encompass everyone in the classroom. He swayed across to the center of the room and perched himself on a table. From that moment on it seemed as if he had achieved something that many instructors never achieve. Somehow, his actions in those few seconds had established this man’s total character, and the students liked what they saw. Confidence, respect of himself, and also of the students, a sense of humor, and a thorough knowledge of his subject matter all appeared to be displayed in that short lapse of time. And you know what— the man went on to prove to us during the semester that he possessed all of those qualities and then some. Dr. William Sheriff is an exception in today’s field of education. The students clamor to gain admittance to his courses. Never have I seen a class so heavily populated at 4:00PM on a Friday afternoon. That fact in itself is enough to evidence Dr. Sheriff’s instructional excellence. But all of these observations carry a much deeper significance. They are the polished results of years of experience in teaching. They are what every student who aspires to teach should recognize, and, if possible, assimilate into his or her own classroom technique. If one were to break down the overall characteristics observable in Dr. Sheriff he would have a relatively superior guideline to follow for the incorporation of those specific traits necessary for a good teacher. What are those traits? The first one can be called “enthusiasm;” enthusiasm that does not stay self contained, but enthusiasm that is infectious; infectious to the point that every individual wishes to do his best to learn what he can about the subject. That is, admittedly, a slightly idealistic statement; yet, if one at least tries to emulate this attitude, his attempts at communication with students should be highly rewarded. Knowledge of the subject matter is not to be ignored. Just as a good actor is expected to know his lines, a good teacher is expected to have a thorough knowledge of the concepts, facts, figures, and applications existing within his field of specialization. Unfortunately there are many people in the educational profession that either base their whole philosophy soley on this one single element, or they are so incompetent in this area that they alienate the students with their inability to answer basic questions about the subject. It should be noted here that students have a remarkable ability for detecting teachers who are trying to fake their way along. Dr. Sheriff possesses another characteristic that is important to teaching. This one I will label “respect.” I mean respect in the sense that he recognizes the fact that all of his students are Individuals: People from different backgrounds, with different ideas, different levels of academic competence, and with different creative talents. Thus, with this in mind, he allows students some freedom in chosing and completing assignments geared to enhance some aspect of their learning. Alas, students! There is finally a man who has broken away from the traditional “hickory stick” approach to teaching. The last trait is something that may not be considered important to many people, but is conducive to a happy and productive learning situation. That element is a “sense of humor.” In a world filled with strife and turmoil one needs a sense of humor to maintain his sanity, and to promote his subject matter to students in a manner that does not plunge them into a state of utter despair. The world that students face is a complicated one. Its continuation necessitates a pop-lation of people who are not only knowledgeable, but also well educated. Facts and figures that are spoon-fed for the purpose of rote memorization do not constitute a well rounded education. 23 f Moto-cross, a fast growing sport that originated in Europe, is becoming more popular each year in the United States. It’s a crash and burn sport that puts man and machine against each other. The races are run over a closed track about a mile in length. Mud holes, hills, off camber turns, and big jumps challenge the riders. It’s the type of sport that Americans love; fast action, grueling competition, and hard crashes. by tom running f 24 Gymnastics and % Many students at UW-0 are well acquainted with the financial controversies which surround the Physical Education Department. However, few students are aware of Physical Education programs which promote good University-Community relations at no expense to the students. Gymnastics coach Kenneth Allen has recently begun an Innovating program which benefits the children of the Oshkosh area as well as Involved UW-0 students. Mr. Allen has developed a Gymnastics program for boys and girls between the ages of six and fourteen which is offered through the College of Continuing Education. The class meets at the Kolf Sports Center for one hour sessions twice a week. Prompted by Inquiries from townspeople and his own background In gymnastics, Allen felt that such a program was appropriate and has already been highly successful. Philosophically, Coach Allen believes that an early gymnastics program offers children a variety of movement experiences. These experiences are generally different than those encountered In traditional school programs. Exposure to these experiences Is highly beneficial at an early age when muscle development is not a restrictive factor and Inhibitions are at a minimum. Allen finds that movement experiences also carry over Into normal dally activities. By learning to control his body, a child develops a degree of grace and confident poise. Knowledge of movement experiences learned through gymnastics can also minimize Injuries caused by falls or other accidents. These skills remain longer if learned earlier and develop Into a part of a sound life-time program In physical education. Allen's program 1s also based upon strong educational principles. He tries to maintain loose discipline In his class and finds that freedom Is more compatable to learning. Coach Mien attempts to utilize and channel the child’s natural energy into more refined activities. To keep the Instruction Individualized, student volunteers offer their time and knowledge and keep the teaching ratio at about one Instructor for every six students. The class is divided Into groups based on ability levels. The groups move to various stations throughout the hour and have the opportunity to work on each piece of apparatus. Each group is adjusted as necessary and each child receives individualized A feedback throughout the lesson based upon his •W own potential and progress. No one ever fails Coach Allen’s program. The future of this gymnastics program is uncertain at this time. Because of overwhelming interest, the program will be repeated next a Case of Spirit semester, and Allen hopes to provide an outlet for the more advanced students. Allen is also considering the possibilities of opening up the program to area teachers and University students involved in Clinical Experience courses. Clinics and competitive situations are tentatively planned for the future. Dr. Walter Bense, Chairman of the UW- O Religion Department interprets religion under a broad concept, and therefore he finds himself involved in numerous, diverse programs. Bense feels that religion Is intimately concerned with the most ultimate questions of man and should not avoid these crucial issues. Because of this view, Bense is deeply involved with war and peace studies. Many of his interests lie in research into the nature of war and peace, such as his new three credit course, Religion, War, and Peace, and his article Paris Theologians on War and Peace, 1521 - 1529”. Since the problem of killing or being killed is one of man’s most ultimate concerns, Bense feels that the church itself should be involved in these matters. Using the Vietnam war as an example, Bense noted the general uninvolvement on the part of the church. The church has mainly been indifferent to the war and has refrained from taking any specific stand. The church appears to be perfectly willing to take authoritative positions on personal moral questions, but feels that comments on government morality are beyond its domain. While agreeing that church and state should remain separate entities, Bense finds that the church should feel a moral responsibility to speak out on such significant problems. Bense is also involved in the nature of peace and world government. His introduction for Plans for World Peace Through Six Centuries”, by Sylvester Hemleben, deals with significant plans for peace which center upon a system of regional federalism. Bense does not feel that our world has progressed enough to maintain a single world government, but feels we are beyond the point of strict nationalism. He foresees cooperation between nations based upon their geographic locations. These groups would meet together as problem solving organizations to work toward common goals. While being economically beneficial, this cooperation would not undermine cultural identities. Along with his acticles and introductions, Dr. Bense is developing book reviews and a large number of English translations of German works. As Chairman of the Religion Department, Bense is also involved in many curricular innovations such as developing new courses and revising old course outlines. 25 bv deb rahn Student Publications According to Mary Zane Allen: “The Wisconsin Review” t “The Wisconsin Review,” according to Mary Zane Allen, was named one of the top ten undergraduate literary magazines in the United States last year. The magazine, published semi-annually, is one of the few outlets for young writers in the area. Allen is completely dedicated to improving the publication. She feels that the Wisconsin Review serves a definite purpose on the campus. Not only does it establish an outlet for writers; it provides the students who work on it with an excellent learning experience by forcing them to learn magazine production. In Mary’s opinion there are quite a few people in the UW-O community who write and develop their craft to a fine art. If the Wisconsin Review helps them in any way, it then serves its purpose. There are also a lot of people in the community who want to read contemporary writing. Also the Review offers local writers a place close to home to publish which gives confidence to those who eventually want to write for a wider market. Mary claims that these factors working together form a very good reason for the existence of the Wisconsin Review. She also expresses a desire to get more fiction into the Review. “Up until now it’s been mainly poetry. That isn’t fair,’’ she said. This year the format of the first issue should be more conducive to including greater amounts of fiction. The expanded format includes the addition of more pages and the changing of the Review’s shape into a more convenient size. The magazine is put out by an unpaid staff of between twelve and fifteen people. Mary, and the two assistant editors, John Baker and Dale David, have the final decision concerning which pieces are printed. According to Mary, their opinion about which pieces go in is usually the same. Aside from her work on the Review, Mary Zane Allen is a unique person in her own right. Interested in poetry and creative writing, she plans to have a magazine of her own someday. Working on the Wisconsin Review helps her stay abreast of the trends in all fields of creative writing. This awareness and openness to all fields of creative writing is most ob- t viously a desirable trait for the editor of such a unique publication as the Wisconsin Review. The Review is interested in receiving manuscripts from UW-0 writers. 26 Poetry the night has come. through a silent park, across the crystalline lace of a deserted beach, over the melancholy tinkling of ice on ice, the wind whispers of the coming of spring.

Bloechl a kite in a tree: imprudence Sherman PRO CON PRO CON PRO CON PRO CON PRO CON PRO CON ARE MARRIAGE AND THE FAMILY ON THE WAY OUT? Statement by Dr. Di Salvo Yes; marriage, as we know it today, will either change drastically or be eliminated entirely. Marriage as myth has always been out because it has been, as myth, impossible. The myth has said, since about the seventeenth century (when we can say modern marriage began), that marriage was made in heaven, was the assurance of happiness on earth, that romance was not only real but necessary, and that love was indescribably glorious. These things are, of course, mostly nonsense. Women believed these things much more than men, and when they expected life to live up to the expectation of the myth when they got married, much of the misery of marriage was inevitable. Insofar as the modern woman is romantic and a believer in the myth, she will be, has been, and is, miserable. Marriage, as non-romantic, or real, is difficult; and because it is difficult, it fails for those who cannot, or who do not wish to, face reality. A good, happy, important relationship ARE MARRIAGE AND THE FAMILY ON THE WAY OUT? Statement by Dr. White When asked if the traditional concept of marriage is becoming obsolete, one can only make a judgment based upon his moral and spiritual background. The person who was reared in the Christian home and has developed his moral character based upon the teachings of God cannot honestly accept anything but the traditional marriage that is legally performed under the direction of God’s commandments. One does not have to be a profound thinker to realize that the insitiution of marriage is undergoing some interesting changes. This has been distressing to those in the overthirty or thirty-five age bracket. However, we must realize that our society has been undergoing some drastic changes and no one tradition is safe from the technological and social changes of this century. For the past few years we have been in the process of doing away with the permanence between a man and a woman is quite possible without marriage, and this fact has much to do with the hoped-for “liberation” of women in modern life. Marriage as the best, or only place for children is also a view that will be eliminated or drastically changed. For one thing, the population explosion is a real and present danger, and the view of women in marriage as not just indiscriminate breeders is the most revolutionary change of all, since formerly uncontrolled breeding was not only a widely accepted idea and relentlessly acted upon, but was also a religious and moral concept. Traditionally the woman was virtuous only if she behaved in a sexually acceptable way within the social group to which she was almost exclusively relegated-the family. She was virtuous before marriage if she were a virgin and virtuous after marriage if she had children and had no other sexual partner but her husband. Thus morality, for women, was narrowed to one action (or inaction), social acceptance was narrowed to those women who were married and were mothers, and faithfullness was narrowed to mean monogamy. Once this delimitation of woman’s position occurred, the rigidity and narrowness of otherwise extensive moral values was assured. The quantity of children a woman produced was once necessary continued on page 60 of marriage or have even neglected the ritual and vows of the marriage pact, while still holding on to the sexual fulfillment of marriage. I would imagine that the highly effective birth control methods have had something to do with this trend. I think that this is unfortunate since Gods’s moral code is being broken. I am not saying that the actual marriage ceremony cannot undergo changes. In these times nothing could be more appropriate than some of the new music that tells the real story of love and affection between two people. The concern that I have is for the number of young people who have forsaken the bonds of matrimony and set up housekeeping without accepting the moral and legal responsibility of the union. It is unfortunate that the changes that have invaded the sanctity of the marriage vows not only involves the two people but also the children of the union of this man and woman. Children deserve to be born into families that want them and are ready to love and care for them. It is the family that produces children, cares for them, trains them and protects them until they leave to make homes of their own. These tasks should have the top priority—that of making men and women continued on page 60 29 30 HAIL THE LIBERATED FEMALE! f e « I am the great female leader! You are the poor, neglected minority! You do not know how to be free individuals so I will teach you. Together we will scream and yell and call all men dirty names. Even though we despise men, we must dress and act like men, take over their jobs, and smoke cigars. A true liberated woman reads only liberated books, magazines and newspapers, of which there are very few. For a while your library will be exceedingly small, but as we rise, more worthy literature will also come to the fore. Even if we enjoy keeping house, we must go to the factory where our husbands work and try to get jobs. Our life must be filled with hate: we must hate men, hate children, hate the government, hate ourselves. As Ms. DiSalvo says, “Up yours, Pm sick of having it up mine.” Our basic problem is men, of course. They are the ones who have held us in our places for so long, and it is now time to retaliate. How should we retaliate? We must put them in our place just to show them how bad we have had it for the past centuries. I know we cannot make them actually bear those little brutes of babies, but we can at least make them stay home and take care of them. So what if he hates it, so did we. To the bassinets with them! Listen to those kids scream! Watch them throw up their lunch! Change their reeking diapers! Dust, scrub, clean, wipe, tidy-up, and don’t you dare complain, men. Our biggest problem is getting our great enemy down. Together we must organize a strong union of sisters to tear down every phallic symbol; to destroy their sanctuaries; to degrade them in every possible way. We must build our bodies and our minds so that we can overtake them and then take over where they left off. It is time now for every female to start indoctrinating the men in her life with women supremacy. This will not be hard since every man knows deep in his heart that women are superior to him. While indoctrinating the man it will be easy to start him on the menial tasks such as dish washing and dusting. Do not make him wash floors yet as he may realize what the whole scheme is. While you are robbing him of his individuality, make him feel as if you really need him. This tactic really throws him off. Gradually add tasks to his schedule, with the finale of his staying home and you going out to work. If you are single, try to stay away from men as much as you can. If you need them for some trivial reason, such as sex, pick one up at a bar, and use them for the hour or night. You will find many men truly enthusiastic about being used in this way. The real liberated woman, however, does not even consider herself as a sexual being. Her organs are for bearing children with the help of a male, and she does not want her children to have male heritage. Women scientists will, no doubt, work out away so that the male sperm will not be needed. Then a great race will thrive. Do anything to get a job away from a man. Slander is not much when one considers the cause. In a very hard case, a woman is permitted to use her body to get the job away from a man. Appeal to the chauvinism in every man. You need not carry through (and I suggest you do not) once you get the position you want. This is very degrading to the man who fell under the trick, but so what? A liberated woman has a few rules by which she must conduct herself. I advise you study the list carefully: 1. Never mention a male’s name without the prefLx of pig or some other defaming express ion. 2. Wear ugly clothes to disguise any of your female parts that cause embarrassment in large crowds. Wear pants to hide your legs, bulky sweaters to hide your chest. 3. Do not use any products that discriminate against women such as Marlboro cigarettes and Bic pens. 4. Avoid institutions which discriminate against women such as universities and shopping centers. 5. Don’t wear underwear. 6. Only patronize female doctors. 7. Don’t make your bed! You may be forced to lie in it. 8. Cultivate a strong body so you may play the offense iastead of the defense. These are a sampling of the rules that true feminists follow. Any action that generates the cause is great! Any action that causes females to return to the warm drugery of the home is bad. Now is the time to unite and follow our great leaders that have brazened the path to our final take over of the nation and then the world. The universe is at our feet! Arise women! Arise! 31 by dave kemper Sports “J Decided I Must Be a Runner.” t i Running mile after mile under deep blue skies, across mountain valleys packed with tropical trees, around palm-fringed bays would be heaven to any Midwestern crosscountry enthusiast. To Steve Ross, University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh crosscountry runner, this inviting tropical setting is home. Steve is from Trinidad, a small island just off the Atlantic tip of South America. His running career started six years ago while watching a local road race in his home town of Laventille. The race looked like so much fun to Steve, he decided to start running himself. In an interview Steve said, “I left the race feeling I had to try running. I decided I must be a runner.” He joined a local track club and began running over the hilly Trinidad terrain. The first few years of running went by without much success, but this did nothing to alter Steve’s enthusiasm. He told me re- cently, “Nothing has ever come easy. I have to work hard to be successful at anything Ido.” Gradually he developed into a good distance runner and with help of his local coach he received a scholarship at Oshkosh. Steve never misses a day without doing some type of running. Each day he organizes, in his mind, what type of running he must do to improve himself. As he stated in an interview: “My running is like a prison sentence. I know just what to expect each time I run.” An example of Steve’s organized running is the schedules he followed the past summer; he woke up at six in the morning, ran five miles, then ran to work at the Pioneer Inn, worked for eight hours and ran home, rested and ran some more at night. He enjoys music, Latin American style, and likes to dance the limbo. He plays the harmonica by ear and friends to play calypso music. With such a demanding running schedule Steve finds little time for any other interests. To compensate he incorporates many interests in his running. For example, Steve is a nature lover, so many times he’ll run in the woods and if something pleasant catches his eye he will stop and enjoy it. A physical education major, Steve is now in his second year at Oshkosh. He has developed into one of the top runners in the conference, finishing third in a recent twelve team meet. After graduation he wants to return to Trinidad to teach physical education and coach track. As a closing remark in our conversation I asked Steve if he would continue running after college. He casually answered by saying he wanted to run the marathon in the 1976 Summer Olympics. 32 36 - 22 - 36, Hike! The era of the passive, petite female is over at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. No longer will only men participate in traditionally masculine activities such as football, archery and baseball. This year women can participate in almost any activity they desire. “If a girl is interested in a fitness or athletic activity she should be able to do it,” according to women's recreation director, Miss Pat Schaller. With this philosophy of recreation Miss Schaller has organized the broadest womens intramural program ever known to the Oshkosh campus. The main idea behind the program Is to give the women on campus ample opportunity for exercise. Activities already in progress for the women are softball, tennis, and crosscountry. Activities beginning in November include volleyball, archery, badmitton, and physical fitness. The physical fitness program will include two activities: First, the girls will participate in stretching exercises, accompanied by music, to tone the limbs. Secondly the program will include lessons in self defense by Sargent Wilson, self-defense coordinator for the Oshkosh Police Department. Later in the month fencing and gymnastics will get under way. For each of these activities a resource person, someone knowledgeabe with the activity, will be on hand. These resource people will give the girls basic instructions in fencing and gymnastic skill to help them enjoy the activities. Future events Include firearm Instruction at the rifle range and open pool shooting at Reeve Memorial Union. A resource person will be on hand at the Union, to instruct the girls in the proper way to shoot pool. The Women’s Recreation Department will pay for the renting of the pool tables. This program is set up to give every girl on campus an opportunity to participate. If you find that none of the scheduled activities interest you, go to the Womens Recreation Department and they will be more than glad to help you find an activity to suit your personal taste. (For scheduling of events see the campus calendar or go to the Women’s Recreational Department, Room 127 Albee Hall.) f Women pass and run into the rough, tough field of football. Males stay home to watch the Monday night game. 33 The Titans and the Houston Veer College football coaches are constantly devising new offensive formations and plays to outsmart the opposition. If a new formation is successful, it spreads like wild-fire to every college football team across the nation. For example, when Knute Rockne and Notre Dame first used the forward pass, the team was unstoppable. Pretty soon every team across the nation developed a passing offense. To counteract this new idea, coaches devised new defenses to stymie the passing offense. This meant it was time for offensive coaches to develop new strategies to counteract the new defense. It's a never-ending battle. No matter how effective a team's system is, someone will better it. The new craze across the nation is the triple option. A few years ago Texas and Oklahoma used this offense so effectively that it has become part of the offense of many colleges and universities today. One of the colleges usingthis type of offense is Oshkosh. The type of triple option used by Oshkosh is called the Houston Veer. This type of offense is geared to a light, quick-moving team, as Oshkosh is, with most of the offensive players weighing right around 200 pounds. It is quite a simple offense consisting of only seven basic plays. The key to this type of play is good timing. According to Head Fo kball Coach, Russ Young, the only way to make this type of offense effective is to practice the seven basic plays constantly so they become almost a habit to the player. Simplified, the option play works with the quarterback, Pete Koupal, moving with the ball and reacting according to the defensive set-up. He can pitch out to either of his backs, Dan Feldt or Tim Vander Velden, run with the ball himself, or pass to one of three ends, Jim Miazga, Dennis Dahl, or Steve Brinza. If the quarterback decides to call a predetermined pass play, he has three options; he can simply drop back and pass, he can sprint out to the side and either run or pass, 34 or he can use the play action pass by faking a hand off to a back and then pass. In the option offense primarily two running plays are called to each passing play. The interior line consisting of Mark Kroli-kowski, two guard Doug Newnan and Bill McKas, and tackles Ron Leichtfull and Frank Ventura use fireout blocking for the option play. Fire-out blocking basically consists of pushing the defense straight ahead. The formation used for the option play requires: the traditional interior line with the center over the ball, two guards on each side of the center, andatackle on each side of the guard. The ends line up with the tight end and flanker on the same side and a split end on the opposite side. The two backs are set behind the guards and the quarterback is over the center. On defense the Titans use a five-two formation with a “monster man and three deep backs. The front five consists of two ends, Ken Nowoczynski and either Jeff Waukau or Dave Reno, two tackles, Tom Rammer and Phil Rasmussen, and Jim Hafler over the middle. Their job is primarily to rush and pressure the offense. The two linebackers, Scott Kronen-wetter and Mark Solowicz, try to follow the ball either on a run or pass. The “monster man, Brian Zuhse, has to recognize any upcoming situation and be there to help the other players with it. The three defensive backs, Chuck Ebert, Mark Ristau, and GlennVan Boxel, play a zone defense, another fairly new innovation in football. They each have a zone or section of the field to protect against the pass instead of the traditional method of covering a pass receiver man to man. So far the triple option has been one of UW-O’s more successful plays. How long Oshkosh uses the option offense and w- the five-two defense depends on how effectively it works against the opposition. If another team comes up with a better system, Oshkosh will have to change. That's football.

A strange metamorphosis had occurred in this young lady. Her hot pants had been replaced by what looked like the remnants of a pair of Jeans. Instead of bulging under one of her usual knit tops, she hid somewhere beneath a size XL plaid flannel shirt. Her once-set hair now frizzed around her face like a home permanent disaster area. Her cheeks were not rosy, her lips were not like a cherry-in other words, she no longer wore make-up. Knowing her former habit of bouncing from bar to bar, I asked her if she knew where the action was. In reply she said: “Wow, that’s really far-out language, man! Yeah man, I know where it’s at. There’s this place uptown that’s really heavy. I mean it’s got really good vibes, man. It’s like this real old place that used to be a towny bar, but these two cool dudes took it over, and now it’s really far-out, man. They’ve got this really solid atmosphere, I mean the place is like an old saloon, man. The floors are old wood and they’ve got two rooms to get it on in. In front they’ve got the bar, and a big wooden 36 table where you can really get it on with a lot of people. The back room is all old tables and wooden chairs, and there’s lots of good vibes there, man. They’ve got pinball machines, foos-ball machines, monster pics, and an old-time piano in the back room too, man. Sometimes dudes get together back there for a quick game of chess, or some solid rapping. The chicks and dudes who come here are really fine people. They’re the kind of people it’s really heavy to get it on with, man. I mean they’re basic, man. The owners are really good people too, man. They keep the prices down and the music heavy. One of the owners said they are going to start to get in some bands for the off nights-that’s solid stuff, man. Yeah man, The Deck is really a far out place. It’s like old and solid. I can really see it, man!” The establishment Ms. Barfly so highly recommends is located on Ceape Street near Park Plaza. It’s within biking or hiking distance from campus. If you’re into old bars, why not ride (or thumb) out and give it a try sometime? You might find that The Deck is your kind of place.

Student talent is shown at its best in the annual University of Wisconsin's Craft Contest, an art and sculpture contest open to UW-0 students and a student photography contest. Members must attend meetings held every week. Their work consists of contracting various people for judging and speaking engagements, designing posters for exhibits, initiating new and exciting art events, evaluating the Fine Arts programs, and taking an active interest in furthering the creative atmosphere of the Union. Members do not have to possess any talent in art, but need to have a genuine interest in promoting cultural activities at UW-O. 49 A.A.C The purpose of the Academic Advancement Co-op is to provide the means by which students can help each other get through school.

The charges were dismissed by Magistrate Robert Dauer, who said Zelik had inflicted no injury. 53 by barb ernst Alumni Pollock Alumni House is the center of alumni activities on the UW-O campus. Now in the third year of operation, Pollock House has been furnished and is operated through the efforts of UW-0 alumni. The Alumni Office, which serves over 17,000 former UW-0 students, is located in Pollock House and during this fall season has welcomed over a thousand alumni back to the campus. This fall the Alumni House has been the scene for many campus and alumni activities including a luncheon and reception for the new faculty. Coffee Klatsch lecture sessions, sponsored by the UW-0 College of Continuing Education, are also being held at Pollock House this fall. In the course of the year the Alumni Association plans other lecture series and a University Day which will be open to students, alumni, and the general public. Many UW-0 departments have used Pollock House this fall for receptions, meetings, and rap sessions. The resources of the Alumni 54 Office are available to all university departments. The UW-0 Alumni Association Board of Directors, composed of forty-eight Alumni representing all facets of alumni, meets at Pollock House regularly to plan the alumni program. This year five recent UW-O graduates have joined the alumni board: Lynda Dykstra Olsen ’70, Mrs. Mary Hoglund ’70, and M.S. 71, Char Hasche White '70, Richard Wiegel 71, and John Moore ’72. One campus activity that draws many alums back toUW-O is Homecoming. The UW-0 Alumni Association sponsors an entry in the Homecoming parade, hosts all-alumni at a Social Hour at the Pioneer after the game, and a dinner dance at the Holiday Inn. This year at Homecoming a new alumni project, the Alumni Service Fund, was introduced. This fund has been established under the auspices of the UW-0 Foundation to fund projects in the coming years that will assist students and faculty at UW-O. Several projects have already been planned to interest alumni in supporting this fund. Among these projects are a special benefit theater evening, a Flea Market sale, and special activities for out of town alumni. Also coming up for UW-0 alumni this fall is an all alumni reception held in Milwaukee at Teacher Convention to give alums the opportunity to meet each other again and to compare notes on their new careers. Later on in the semester the Alumni Association will host an Open House at Pollock House, for UW-O seniors graduating in December and the night of commencement rehearsal graduating seniors will be the guests of the Association at a farewell party which is hosted by alumni for every graduating class. Pollock House will be the scene for many activities throughout the fall and UW-O students are invited to stop in at Pollock House anytime to visit this campus adult center made possible through the efforts of many former students. continued from page 12 subject to all sorts of forces and factors, socially. . . .We have to be able to determine for ourselves what direction we want to take.

Problems with landlords range from rules concerning visitation by members of the opposite sex to a complete lack of cooperation in making necessary repairs. These problems are often, though not always, solvable by a thorough reading of the contract before leasing an apartment. Legal advice should be obtained if there are any questions concerning terms of the contract. On the other hand, there are students who are able to find an excellent apartment or house equipped with a helpful landlord. Usually these are the students who have been around for a while or are not afraid to ask questions. Many nice, off-campus housing locations are found throughout the city. Though distance is a problem for students without transportation, it is often times worth considering. Linda Schober, Penny Wesenberg and their roommates have found an attractive, large, old house on the far south side of town. The apartment has four bedrooms, two living rooms, a large kitchen, and even a stained-glass window! All this for $160 per month. “It really isn’t that bad hitching, and the people I meet are so interesting,” Linda said. Penny comments that the landlord is willing to make necessary repairs. He even painted the house this summer. Pets are allowed, and there are no special rules concerning behavior after midnight. Their happiness stems from the fact that they lived in a “real hole” last year. They had problems with their landlord constantly. She lived in the lower apartment. “I found it extremely difficult to study,” commented Linda, “with the landlady screaming at her kids. She didn’t stop there either. We got it too. It was like living above J. Edgar Hoover.” All the promises the landlord made were never kept. He promised to paint and carpet the hallway and furnish a shed to store their bicycles in. He only got as far as painting the back door. The rent was $203 per month. Jeff Courtice, Paul Mand and Jim Mollon have found an apartment above an appliance store at 5 34A North Main Street. “After dealing with six different landlords in Oshkosh, we’ve finally found one that isn’t out to make a lot of money and is willing to improve the apartment anyway we want to,” said Jeff. When they first saw the place it was a mess and the paint was peeling off all the walls. Their landlord, Wally Seefeldt of Seefeldt’s Furniture, helped them clean up the place and furnished paint for every room in their 56 by deb rahn seven room apartment. The boys picked out the paint themselves and billed it to their landlord. By painting the place, they did a service both to themselves and to their landlord. Their rent is only $75 i er month but the landlord will l)e able to ask more for the apartment after they leave because of the condition which they have restored it to. Jeff, Jim. and Paul never have any problems with their apartment. There are no rules. Part of this stems from the fact that no one lives under them. No security deposit or lease was required. Their last apartment on Walnut Street did cause them some problems, however. The floors were slanted, the rooms were tiny and the landlord refused to put screens on the window or even give them screens to put up themselves. They were evicted when their rent was ten days late. “That apartment was run by an absentee landlord who promised to fix things within a week after we moved in, and he hadn’t even done them two months later,” Jeff said. Another example of a rip-off apartment is located at 25A West Seventh Street. Shared by two boys, the apartment is large, but the landlord is never around, not even when the plumbing froze solid last winter. The boys had no hot water, no bathtub, only a large vintage type sink in the kitchen. They had to heat water on tlie stove or the one space heater. During the winter, they had to close off the front room with a large tapestry in order to keep the bedrooms warm enough to sleep in. The ceilings were rotting and when the old lady’s toilet upstairs would overflow, it would drip on their kitchen table. The backyard was a dump and they never opened their back door because they were afraid the rats would come in. Another time their toilet plugged up and a week’s garbage came up with the water. It covered the bathroom floor and even ran into the living room. Their rent was only $40 per month plus utilities, bu .aplace like this shouldn’t exist anywhere. The apartment located at 814 Lincoln Street is a prime example of the things a landlord can get away with. . There are eight people living in the house; four boys upstairs and four girls downstairs. The girls signed a lease for 12 months, promising the landlord $560 apiece, plus utilities, all for a tiny two bedroom apartment. They did have a living room, the boys upstairs did not. “The only good thing about the apartment is that it’s so close to campus,” said one of the girls. Not only are the four girls cramoed in the apartment, one of them sleeps in the dining 5 room, with the refrigerator. The making about $4500 a year on the house; you can hardly expect him to make any changes. ‘'He did give us a new living room rug, paint, and a pay dryer,” one girl said optimistically. At 1127 Sayer Street is a charming apartment inhabited by three graduate students. It Ls decorated according tothe guys, in “early junk.” The apartment is indicated by its funishings. imagination, and friendliness. The boys have no problems, the rent is cheap, and everything is fine. Perhaps that’s how things get by the time you’re a graduate student. Many students live in the new apartment complexes that are located throughout the city. Although they have all the conveniences of home, the privacy and space are limited. Students who live in these complexes usually have two people to a bedroom, which is oftenthesizeofa dormitory room. The living room is a bit larger, but for four people the space is still limited. Many people comment that they know exactly what their neighbors are doing because of the thin walls found in modern buildings. The advantages of these places outweigh the disadvantages for many students. Many of these complexes are located within walking distance of the campus, so transportation is never a problem. Many students also enjoy the social life that is found when groups of students live in one location. For the student looking for an apartment, several factors should be kept in mind. Location is an important factor. Though many nice apartments exist in the campus area, one must be prepared to pay the higher rent because of the convenience. Before you move in, ask the landlord to go over the lease with you and to explain any special rules that will apply to you. Make sure that all repairs he promises to make are included on the lease, otherwise he has no obligation to do them. Make sure the security deposit does not exceed the worth of the apartment. Get a firm understanding of this deposit before you move in because when you’re moving out is not the time to argue about it. What does a student do if he has landlord problems? The students have hired a lawyer, Buz Barlow, to take care of these kinds of matters. However, according to some students who had lease landlord problems last year, he has avoided the more difficult cases. One married student couple last year brought him a problem concerning their lease. Mr. Barlow told them that the lease was void and that they could go ahead and rent another apartment. After following his advice, he retracted his earlier advice 57 j and the students were stuck with paying for two apartments. When they pushed him a little harder, he then denied giving them the original advice. Mr. Barlow is a busy man with his practice here in Oshkosh and his practice in Milwaukee, so if you can catch him, he may I able to help you. OSA has faith in this man. They are considering re-hiring him for the present school year. It is suggested that if anybody has problems with Mr. Barlow, they contact OSA. All of this isn’t meant to discourage you from moving into an apartment. In fact, it means the opposite. We just want you to be aware of the types of problems you may encounter. Apartment living is carefree and can be fun. So go ahead, get an apartment and invite the New Quiver staff to your first party. Housing available in Oshkosh is both good and bad, but one fact remains. Students would rather have freedom and problems than easy living and dorm restrictions. 58 J Di Salvo continued from page 29 for the survival of humankind. The restriction of the number of children is now necessary for that same survival. The quality of children has always been needed, but so far this need has been largely ignored in the family and in the home. A woman was never held accountable for the kind of children she produced; unlike the question of the quantity of life, the quality of life should have been a consideration. Because it has not been, perhaps because of the very fixation on quantity, the exploitation of women as breeders, and the resultant threat to orderly society, has resulted. What the world needs surely is not more children. What the world needs is good children. For too long the definition of the family as holy, like the old Roman Empire, has entrenched itself as a stereotype to the detriment of both itself and the larger social groupings of which it has been a part. The family is holy only if the people in it are holy, and since families are common, and holiness rare, the association of holy and family is patently foolish. Thus, if satisfactory human relationships do not depend upon marriage (indeed there is much evidence that marriage, in the western world at least, ruins human relationships rather than promises it), then marriage cannot be necessary; and if the family as a result of, or an inevitable concomitant of, marriage must be limited and made better, then, too, the family itself must be tested, judged, changed, or as we see it today, be eliminated. Reaction by Dr. White Dr. DiSalvo s position has presented me with the opportunity to take exception to several of her viewpoints. The impression is given that all women want to be liberated and that any woman who is married is miserable. Pm sure that there are thousands of women who are looking forward to becoming married and having children. Statistics tell us that there are more people being married than ever before. This should tell us something about peoples’ feelings about marriage. I can see no logic behind the assertion that people who are married are more miserable than those who are not. Dr. DiSalvo states that “marriage ruins human relationships rather than promises it.’’ What evidence is there to prove this? Needless to say, people can have a very close relationship without being married. There is no reason to believe that a legal paper is the assurance of getting along well. On the other hand, the lack of the legal bond of marriage does not guarantee good human relationships. All this means is that when one partner gets weary of the relationship, he can pull out and try another such relationship with someone else. No record can be kept of White continued from page 29 of tomorrow. Anything that endangers family life should be challenged. Child rearing without marriage is a serious threat to the family. Our society depends upon stable and mature people to survive politically, economically and spiritually. Human beings become more stable as they grow up in an atmosphere of love and order. Marriage today is more popular than ever despite the fact that the divorce rate is going up. The real problem is: how do we develop good marriages that are lasting and meaningful? Marriage has to be more than convincing a co-ed to share an apartment with her boyfriend. Despite the fact that.“Women’s Lib’’ is in, the big loser in this situation is the girl who 1s involved. I feel that there are some changes that we can make. We have to realize that the woman is more liberated, that she has goals and ambitions which extend beyond that of being a wife and mother. Men and women can now look forward to a much longer married life than did their counterparts of a few decades ago. This means that she will have years of her life that she will not be raising children. This can bring about loneliness and the need for a Job or a career. The man in the marriage must accept this fact. Most women are not satisfied today to play just the housewife role. However, this does not mean that the career women cannot be a good mother and a good wife. I feel that our task is to educate our youth for the idea that marriage is to be a permanent joining of two people who love each other with the kind of love that is rooted in reality and not based on fantasy. To do this we must encourage young people to extend the dating period and the engagement so they can better determine if they are suited for each other. Surveys show that marriages after the age of 22 have a better chance for success. To those who feel that the institution of marriage is becoming obsolete, I would like to ask them to document this belief. I don’t think it can be done. I would also like for them to ask themselves the question, would you want your daughter or sister to accept the role of wife and mother without the legal and moral bonds of marriage? If one believes in God and His teachings, I don’t see how he can believe that marriage and the present concept of the family is vanishing-changing, perhaps, but not vanishing. Reaction by Dr. Di Salvo In order to limit the topic of marriage, it would be easier to come to some valid conclusions about the social problems of marriage and not the religious issues. To argue reli- 60 White continued this arrangement, so we do not know how many miserable people this arrangement involves. Another point that Dr. DiSalvo tries to get across is the one concerning the population explosion. I cannot dispute the fact that we have to be concerned about our growing population problem. I am very much for population control. However, I cannot accept the idea that unmarried people living together will be better able to control the birth rate. This is ridiculous. People are going to have sexual relations whether married or not, and sexual relations produce babies. There are approximately 600,000 babies born every year to teenage mothers. The majority of these are born out of wedlock. Nor does this prove that children born to unwed parents are of a higher quality, which Dr. DiSalvo seems to imply. I’ll take my chances with those young people who marry each other for love, show respect for each other, and have their wedding vows exchanged under the witness of God. I think that these people are the ones who have a better chance of producing the quality of children that will live in a quality family. Dr. DiSalvo’s last comment was that marriage was unnecessary. It is unfortunate that so many young people are paying attention to this kind of thinking. It has been the family that has given the solid foundation for our society to build upon. One does not have to look very far to see that the idea of the family is starting to break down and that our society is breaking down also. It is time we begin stressing the importance of the family. Let’s not destroy the wonderful tradition of two people joining together as an expression of their love for each other. Let’s not destroy the respect that can be developed between man and wife, the respect for our children, or the respect that children can develop for their parents and each other. Let’s not lose the respect that we have for our church and our various religions. Let’s not forget about the family bonds that have meant so much to us for years. Hopefully, those young people who are reinforcing the importance of the church (as at Expo ’72) will have enough influence to turn our society around and put more meaning into our lives through marriage and the family. Some changes might be needed but let’s not destroy the very backbone of our society. Old fashioned? Maybe, but perhaps well worth trying. Di Salvo continued gion is another question. Suffice it to say that one should respect the religious beliefs of another, even if they differ, as they do about the ritual of marriage. There are many different religious backgrounds in America, and there are various religious sects even in Protestantism. Who God is, what His teachings are, what His “commandments” on marriage are, what “traditional marriage” that is “legally performed” is-all of these are questions that would take vast numbers of pages to discuss. Is not marriage “legal” even if it is performed in a church? Surely the problems of marriage are similar in both civil and religious marriage situations. It is also true, or surely something we can all agree on, to say that marriage is a moral question, and not just a religious one. For the sake of clarity we can assume that moral questions have to do with the relationships between one person and another, and that morality sometimes is a religious (ritualistic) question and sometimes it is not. In the broad general area of “Christian morals,” again for the sake of clarity, we can agree that fornication, sexual licentiousness, adultery, child abandonment, and the behavior of perversion are all reprehensible; and that the great ideals of faithfulness, affection, human concern, loyalty, and devotion are all goals to be admired. Marriage is to be questioned if the ideals are perverted in it or because of it, and commended if the ideals are assured because of it. The sad facts are that neither of these things is true. Good marriages are rare. They can take care of themselves without our interfering with them. It is the sad, miserable, misbegotten, tragic marriages that need our understanding, and our understanding first before we pretend to “judge” them. If marriage-traditional, religious, Christian, or any other kind-would assure virtue we would not have any argument with it or about it. It does not. It has not. There is something wrong with it, and therefore it behooves us to analyze it and try, if we can, to see its problems; then, and only then, can we try to solve them. To eliminate marriage entirely in order to satisfy an immature whim or to justify sexual indulgence at the expense of family and society is not to be condoned, and I do not think anybody would condone such action. It is precisely because traditional marriage has not succeeded as virtuous, as ideal, as moral, that it has to be brought into question by sociologists, psychologists, and even “Women’s Lib.” Women’s Lib should not be an excuse for sneering at established values, be they of any kind. Women’s Liberation, because it appeals to so many women of all ages, kinds, types, and backgrounds, will continued on page 62 White continued from page 61 obviously attract many small grouus of the lunatic fringe who seek a new cover for erratic and neurotic behavior. Strange behavior patterns will always be with us, but we cannot deny the real benefits available to us from the new movement simply because it is used by these groups. For some people, especially those who seek to take advantage of others, marriage is altogether too good. For those who can be virtuous without it, live better lives without it, or who deserve better than to be destroyed by it, “traditional” marriage is simply not good enough. continued from page 19 feel that American students are friendly and the professors are extremely helpful. They feel that they are often treated as guests and are welcome because they represent a special viewpoint and background . When asked if they felt that more courses in Chinese culture and subject matter should be offered at UW-O, they said that they already knew about China and were more interested in studying American cultural traditions. They do think, however, that such courses would provide an excellent opportunity for American students to become familiar with Chinese systems and values. One major goal of the Chinese students still remains unfulfilled at this time. Chinese students have a difficult time getting to know American students. Chinese-American friendships generally remain too superficial, and the Chinese students do not get to really know Americans. They feel that the Americans are not prejudiced but are just too busy with other activities. Also, since the Chinese people are more culturally conservative and reserved, they have a hard time openly expressing their desire to be friendly. They are deeply concerned about their studies, and spend much time working toward their degrees. They are afraid that their studious and reserved natures make them appear unfriendly. However, the Chinese students want to become more actively involved with American students. At present, the communication between the Chinese and American students is not great enough. In order to promote good relations, the Chinese Student Association, located in Polk 12, is always open to all students who wish to meet the Chinese students, and on November 5, the Association will hold its annual “China Night”. At this special event, the Chinese students try to promote good relations by acquainting Americans with Chinese food, entertainment and other cultural highlights. Ideally, the Chinese students would like to retain their own unique identities while developing themselves more fully in Amer- photos by Mike Sajbel ✓ 62 continued from page 9 that there doesn’t seem to be any reason to continue in that kind of apathetic educational system. It doesn’t include them. I just want to show them that they can succeed, and that all of it has been a myth as far as their supposed cultural inadequacies are concerned.” Speaking of certain supposed inadequacies on the part of minority students, the subject of the Advance-Titan editorial and cartoon of August 31 came up. Said Falcon, “Why should we have to bear this kind of editorial? What about the new freshmen. They pick up the A-T, go homo on weekends, and show it to their parents. Now what the hell kind of impression is that going to give them of Oshkosh? This only fortifies our beliefs that Oshkosh and so many other places are racist. It seems that a lot. of students secretly believe that Mark Hansmann says...I just feel that it’s too bad that he decided to be an editor of the A-T because it IS the student’s newspaper. They (A-T) tell us that the minority students are oat for what they can get, and they get it at the expense of the university and the students. That’s really a bunch of bullshit, just because we’ve approached the administration several times to do something important at this university.” Asked if he thinks this is a racist university, he said, “I believe so. ...I’m not saying that everyone here is an overt racist, but it’s the subtle racism that speaks for itself. You know when you’re in a situation where you feel awkward. You come into a room and no one talks to you, and you’re supposed to be the first one to say hello. If someone treats me right, then I’ll do the same; but such isn’t the case at Oshkosh. I think a lot of things have been done, but only at the pressure of minority students...” Falcon, who will graduate this year, will probably go on to law school. Being an at- torney, he feels, can be a big help to him when he “goes back to the community” in Milwaukee to assist in aiding its residents. What value, though, does a degree from I his university hold for him? What have his fou ' years here meant to him? “(Tne degree) is just a piece of paper...The four years I had to pul in at Oshkosh were like the four years I had to put in the service. I didn’t like it, but it was something I had to do. If everybody just had the opportunity to be perceived as individuals, I think a lot of things would change. Things will never be different until people want to mnxo them different. I think that right now the minority students are just being tolerated, and haven’t been accepted in the social scheme of the university. Students take world ethnography courses and say ‘hey, isn’t that cool, the way such-and-such people have such a different kind of culture.’ They can accept THAT, and yet they can’t even understand the same concept when it relates to Chi-canoes and other minority students.” continued from page 11 through. As long as Oshkosh stays a conservative town, and the administration is who it is now--and the term administration that could include anybody: The older people who have old ideas that they stick to; who believe that blacks are inferior or can’t learn as well--all those stereotypes that they put on minorities; as long as they’re still around it’s going to be hard to get anywhere in this world.” As for hiring more black faculty, “who wants to come to a university that’s not paying you enough to teach in the first place,” she says, “even if you’re as qualified as the white person sitting next to you? ...They only give you $17,000 to teach whereas if you were to go someplace that’s going to give you $25,000, you’d go there first. Until they learn to pay the person as much as he deserves, they’re always going to have a hard time trying to find any kind of minority faculty...” Will things be better? “I think so,” she nods. “The administration can’t stay with the same people forever. There will be other people to take their place. Hopefully, they won’t be as bad as some of the people over there now. “I won’t mention any names,” she adds slyly. “I just don’t want to put anybody on the spot, and I may not be as accurate as I think I am. It would be my own personal judgement; I don’t like to pass that on to people and make enemies.” Suddenly, she isn’t staring down at her shoes anymore, but instead looks straight at me as she softly says, “that’s one thing I hate to do is make enemies. I really do.” 63 Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday November 1 _ Union Movie-' Diary 5 of a Mad Housewife” -Little Theatre-6:15 and 8:30 P.M. -free Taylor HalU Halloween Hangover”-at Taylor Hall-8:00 P.M. to 12:00 A.M.

If your organization’s picture wasn’t In last month’s Issue, look In this one. Wit’s End (by Ellon Waite) expresses vlows on the spirit of Christmas. Santa Is even in this Issue. Poor man! He came to the new Quiver offico recently and was so sad and blue. He said that he was tired ofhls Image of JollySt. Nick but didn't know what to do. So we decided to help Santa out. We hit on an unbelievable Idea: the metamorphosis of Santa. We took the old duffer down to the gym and gave him quite a workout. (It must have been terrible In that heavy red suit.) But Santa kept to his exercising program very faithfully. Not only did it lift his spirits, but it also toned up his muscles. It was decided that a centerfold pose would definitely change his imago. So, that's what we did! And it’s in this issue. You can’t miss it. Santa’s most definitely a swinger and don’t let anyone tell you any different. Even the reindeer were Impressed.

In 1948 there were 156 food stores serving Oshkosh. Now the number has dwindled to about 32. The era of the small corner grocery markets came to an end as the big chain markets began to emerge. Higher volumn buying and selling enabled the big chains to under price the corner markets and take over. People became more mobile. The automobile became a necessity and enabled shoppers to seek out bargains. Competition became greater as more of the bigger stores moved in. The small stores just couldn’t put up with the competition. The corner lots that once housed the corner market and residences may have been bought up by the big businesses. Now instead of a small store stands a gas station, bar or one of the giant food stores. Giant stores advertising lower prices and higher quality and often lacking the friendliness of the small corner market. Yet, a few of these small corner operations manage to survive from year to year. Bud’s grocery located near the UWO campus is such an operation. The small store that sits on the corner of McKinley and Charles Avenues has occupied that spot since the turn of the century. The older people of the neighborhood shop there for the opposite reason that the chains flourished--it’s hard for them to get anywhere else. The UWO students shop there because it’s handy and because Bud is their friend. Bud Clark took over the small corner store formerly known as DuVall’s Grocery because the store he ran downtown was squeezed out. Bud has been in the small store business since the forties and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. He’s seen the majority of the small stores go under and has had a few of his own bought out from under him but remains in the business because he likes it. Bud calls it a family operation, even though his family is growing up and finding their own way of life. His oldest daughter graduated from UWO and now teaches in Milwaukee. His son graduated from high school a year ago and is taking a job with the Postal Service. His youngest daughter is a freshman at Oshkosh North and helps out when she has time but mainly you will find Bud and his wife doing the work. We still do some delivery business, a carry over from my downtown store, but mainly we cater to the college kids. They account for 75%of the business. I don’t have any real problem with them stealing or causing trouble. I respect them and they me.” Then he went on to describe his store policy: I treat them fair and try and give them the service and products that will make life a little easier for them. I make fresh sandwiches every day, six different kinds and the kids seem to appreciate it. I know most of the kids pretty well and it seems if they stop in once or twice they turn into pretty steady customers. 4 Mrs. Barbara Burgess shops at Bud’s for her mother who is an older resident that lives nearby. 5 I ! I’m trying a dry cleaning service now. If they bring in their dry cleaning I guarantee to have it back by the next day.

If I see a kid in here a few times Pll take his check, just as long as it isn’t too big. I charge athree-cent service charge but only because the bank charges me that much for processing the check. It’s just another way I try to help the kids out, besides they usually buy something when they cash a check. The corner groceries are dying and I suppose sooner or later the little store on the corner of McKinley and Charles Avenues will go under too. Maybe someone will buy it and tear it down or make a bar out of it. But I’m sure as long as it stands students will continue to make use of the friendly little store on the corner.

An Examination and Proposal: The University Governance Structure by tom davis Can the unicameral system replace the present unwieldy and complex system ? Both the advocates ot the unl-camoral system and the opponents have valid points. The present system Is unwieldy and complex, and It could easily be replaced by a more streamlined systom such as the unicameral system. Money could probably be saved if the three separate branches of university government did not each have to pass Judgement on vital legislation, and in this time of fiscal cutbacks money is of key importance. The bost part of the package lies in the idea that students, faculty and administration could sit down together for a discussion instead of screaming at oach other across the fences of their prejudices. Obviously this is too idealistic to become a fact, but the idea is sound and refreshing. However, as drafted by Larson, the unicameral system is probably inherently dangerous to both faculty and student interests. The argument that the administration might end up in total control of the commission is a bogus one since the administration controls Faculty Senate and C6A at the present timo. Guiles can institute anything that ho wishes to as long as tho Board of Regents goes along with him. The valid argument is that students and faculty need a place where they can have an official caucus without Justifying their every thought to members of the administration. Both students and faculty leaders have to be able to caucus a consensus among themselves to prosent thoir interests In tho bost light posslblo. Almost all of tho effect of student and faculty government lies in the mobilization of student and faculty support, and without a placo to caucus, neither student nor faculty government can be worthwhile. Probably tho best solution to this Impasse would be to design a unl-camoral government which coexists with separato Student and Faculty Presidential Councils whose primary Job would bo to draft new legislation for their special interest group and help direct the student and faculty members of the unicameral commission. This should combine the best features of the present system and the proposed system. Students and faculty members would have a place to caucus their views and a center where publicity for various causes could be generated, and at tho same time, since these Presidential Councils could only propose legislation, the system of governance could be streamlined. Present committees which are wholly oriented toward student or faculty interests could remain inexistence as advisory bodies to the President of the Student Body or Faculty Senate, and the administration could not then be accused of controlling student or faculty lives. Obviously all new systems need to be aired fully before a final decision can rationally be made, but at the moment this seems to be the best solution to a difficult problem. 8 I Unicameral: The answer to inefficiency ? Student political activism has steadily been decreasing ever sinco the aftermath of the shootings at Kent State in Ohio. I-arge scale demonstrations lave almost disappeared from the college campus, and student body government across the nation is threatened by wide spread apathy and a determined campaign by administrators to regain control of the university structure. In Oshkosh the decrease of activism has brought about several proposals for a change in the way the university is governed. Most of these proposals have originated from administration sources. The student association at Oshkosh (06A) has a cluttered history of both successes and failuros. Formed by-Dave Frank, student body president in 1968, its inception raised a storm of controversy. Frank and a handful of other student leaders dissolved the former student government (SGL) in a series of secrot meetings, and then set about creating a new and more powerful instrument of student representation. Mombors of tho SGL wore not informed of the chango until Harvey Roesler, Advance Titan editor, broke the story and headlined it on the front page of the October 3rd (1968) A-T. All of OSA's successes can be traced to its influence with the student body. It has no official legal authority on the campus, and only exists at the pleasure of Roger Guiles, University Chancellor. All of its programs, such as the Legal Aid Service which hires a lawyer (presently Buz Barlow) to handle the legal problems of students, can exist only with continuous student support AND the blessing of Guiles and the Board of Rogonts. The proposals for change in tho university governance structure have essentially been authored by Clifford Larson, Chairman of the Governance Commission and Dean of the School of Business. However, many of Larson's proposals were summaries of decisions made by the Governance Commission after it had been formed in late 1971. Larson's proposals advocate a unicameral legislature made up of students, faculty, and administration leaders. This large legislature would act as an advisory body to tho Chancellor, Guiles, and would have tho right to propose basic changes in the operation and main-t a inane c of the university. The Chancellor would retain the final doclsion making power that he now holds. If he vetoed a piece of legislation, there is essentially no way of going over his head. The advantage of such a legislature would be that it could be run more economically than the present system which has three separate branches of governance, the system would be more streamlined with less confusion since bills which now have to be acted on by throe bodies would only have to gothrough one unicameral body, and the input into the system would be much more varied with students, faculty, and administration sitting down to discuss with each other instead of shouting at each other over the barriers of distrust and opinion. The disadvantages as voiced by opposition leaders such as Mark llans-mann, present A-T editor, and Ned Kline, Faculty Senate president, are that there is no type of guarantee that the unicameral assembly will not become a tool to be used by the administration for its own purposes, and that with the dissolution of C6A and Faculty Senate there will be no place on campus where Interested students or faculty members can get together and discuss objectives and problems out of the hearing and sight of administration leaders. Another argument against the concept, as voiced by Mark Mitchell, OSA president, is that the Governance Commission is moving too fast, and trying to destroy existing organizations without being too sure that the new organization is going to work. 9 The Structure of Student Government Tho present student government structure Is illustrative of the complicated nature of the whole university governance structure. Often the separate segments work against each other, and even when cooperation is at a maximum, outside observers find It difficult to find out exactly what is going on. The major source of conflict Is usually the Student Assembly. In recent years the Student Senate and student body president have been made upof llborals while moderates and conservatives have dominated tho Assembly. This has resulted In a continual battle of words that has not meant much one way or another. On crucial issues, like the allocations committee controversy, the liberals have been consistently victorious. Probably the most consistently powerful offices in student government have been the president and members of the oxccutlvo board. Under the leadership of Mark Mitchell (1972-73) and Jim Engmann 0971-72), new controversial programs have been developed, publicized, and, in some cases, enacted. Ironically, the largest power base within the government structure, recognized campus organizations, has been the most silent part of the government. They have generally chosen to pursue their own affairs rather than got Involved wUhin campus issues. One part of student government that is not illustrated on the chart is the large committee structure which officially advises the chancellor on a variety of issues. Most student members of powerful committees like the Allocations and Governance Committees are in close contact with members of the executive board and the student body president, and in some cases are members of the board. The Allocations Committee, made up of five faculty and six student members, has become the most powerful non-administrative group on campus. Their handling of monies from the student activities fund has threatened the life of somo campus organizations and activities while pumping new life into others. Another, more nebulous part of student government has been its part in the formation of a power base for a local political organization. Although no political machine exists in Oshkosh in the traditional sense of the term, two student politicians, Dave Cruslus and Dick Fllntrop, have worked from a student government base to win election to the Oshkosh Common Council and the State Assembly. Without a student government some of its present functions will obviously disappear. Without a specific place to meet and talk on campus, politically oriented students will have a harder time getting organized to wage an effective • ampalgn for or against proposalsbytheadmlnistration,andthere is a serious chance that student control of committees like tho allocations committee might pass by the wayside, f] 10 Hundreds of people attended the annual China Night dinner sponsored by the Chinese Student Association on November 5.

Cfiris mas--9 remember it well? by ellen waite About a week before Halloween I went out to Copp’s to get my supply of candy for the little tricksters that were coming the next week. As I approached the store from the parking lot, a beautiful, shiny plastic Christmas tree caught my eye. I was stunned by the forethought which the store showed by getting their Christmas decorations up two months ahead of the actual holiday. When I look back to fifteen years ago, I never thought of Christmas until a few weeks before the day. How nice it is of the town merchants to remind us of the season of “peace and goodwill” two months ahead. While wandering around the store lookingfor the candy that was hidden by those ravishing, delicate aluminum trees, Iran into an old high school friend of mine that I had not seen since graduation day. She was also quite enthused about the foresight that the stores have shown this season, commenting that many Park Plaza merchants were also in the process of readying their stores for the Yuletide season. After striking up this rather exciting conversation, we found that we still had much in common, even though our present lives were so different. We decided to go down to Tosh’s to have a few beers and continue our little talk. We continued talking at the bar, reminiscing about our childhood Christmases. Rene, my friend, told me how her family used tosave Christmas for the twenty-fifth. Now the years have gone by, Christmas has been lengthened to include November and December. Last year her first present came on November 3, a transistor radio, that her father had picked up on sale. Throughout both months she received a wide variety of goodies from aunts, uncles, cousins, sisters, brothers, and parents. For some reason, her grandparents refused to celebrate with the rest of the family. Their one, small gift arrived on Christmas Day. She explained they Just were not tuned into the times. I thought Rene was extremely lucky. My family had always followed those outdated traditions of going to church Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, keeping secret s, and having a normal, old, real Christmas tree. When I told her that my little sister still believed in Santa Claus, Rene snickered. She told me her youngest brother has never believed in Santa Claus. Her modern parents do not believe in telling their children myths. Jimmy knows that all his presents cost good money and that they come from real people, not imaginery elves. I marvelled at the insight of Rene’s people, reminding myself to have a serious discussion with my parents on changing our Christmas traditions. In the course of our discussion, Rene let me in on her secret of getting everything she wants for Christmas. In August she sits down and thinks of everything she wants. Then she visits all sorts of stores if she runs out of i-deas so that her final list is very complete. Finally she dittos off the final copy at the office where she works and sends copies to allher friends and relatives. This way she’s assured of getting everything she wants. If by any chance she feels she will not get a certain present, she sends out memos to certain people, reminding them of the gift. I thought this technique was very efficient. My family has always insisted on surprising one another, which sometimes proves embarrassing when you get something you hate. Rene pulled out a copy of her list to show me exactly what she wanted for Christmas. The page was neatly typed and outlined. The headings were: Clothes, Accessories, Appliances, Automotive, Household, and Miscellaneous. Under each of these headings she listed the precise items she wanted, including the price of each. She was quite assured that she would recieve all fifty-four items since the Christmas season had started at least two weeks earlier this year. By the time our conversation had finished I felt quite sick from all the cheap beer, and I had to leave. As I was saying good-bye to Rene, she handed me a folded piece of white paper. The next day I remembered the note and opened it up. It was a copy of her “I Want” list. I think it is appropriate that I now wish all of you a Happy Easter, since that season will soon be here. Oh yes, one final note, my parents would not listen to a word I said. H liver 14 15 THE GYMNAST: mind and body by dave kemper “Gymnastics demand more than just physical capabilities, it also demands extreme self-discipline,” according to gymnastics coach Ken Allen. A gymnast has to control every body movement when performing any type of gymnastic event. In order to do this, the individual performer must discipline himself to practice continually until every body movement coordinates perfectly in relation to the event. “To mentally discipline a gymnast is the most difficult task to coach; usually the physical capabilities are already there,” added Coach Allen in an interview. In the Oshkosh gymnastics program. Coach Allen is constantly stressing the importance of discipline. He approaches gymnastics by the philosophy that the mental attitude created by gymnastics will carry over into the individual’s total university life. The coach remarked in an interview, “I try to relate the boys actions in the gym with his choice of study and even his girlfriend.” In order to help the individual performer create a good mental attitude Coach Allen has to understand each individual performer. To do this he talks to each performer individually to find out what type of person he is. Once the coach understands the individual, he tries to help the gymnast create a good mental attitude for his respective event. It is a very time consuming operation, but according to Coach Allen it is the best way to get a good performance from the individual. Naturally the necessary physical qualities are needed to go along with a good mental attitude. Coach Allen remarked, “each event has an ideal physical make-up.” In tumbling and floor exercise the individual must have explosive legs, flexibility, and a powerful lower body. For the side horse long arms and a slender body are an advantage. The rings demand a short body with powerful shoulder strength and the parallel bars require one who is explosive in the shoulders. The performers in the all-around event need to haw a little of everything. Coach Allen’s system of gymnastics seems to be effective because this years team has several outstanding performers. Chris Granger, a nationally ranked gymnast, performs in vaulting and floor exercise. Also expected to do well are Dave Olson and Mike Belos in vaulting, Mark Szymanski in the floor exercise, and Bill Jakus on the rings. The sport of gymnastics is not quite as strong in Wisconsin as in other states. But according to Coach Allen a state gymnastics coaching association has been organized to help promote the sport. With the addition of Kolf fieldhouse, the sport is gradually growing here at Oshkosh. To help the spectator understand what’s going on at a gymnastics meet, Coach Allen has a speaker explain the event before each performance. He is trying hard to promote a good program, both for the performer and the spectator. If you are curious to see what goes on at a gymnastics meet check the schedule for upcoming competitions. H 16 17 Five Lettermen Return For The Titans by vernon neal “I do everything I can to insure the success of our basketball team. My philosophy and relationship with our boys on the team will hopefully bring about the best in them. Titan basketball coach White proclaimed. While Coach White has been at UW-O for nine years, he has compiled a record of 110 wins and 78 losses. When asked about his record, ho repllcd,“if you win more than you lose, you are fairly well satisfied. We haw had very good seasons, but the last two seasons we were below 500 pet. We've always won more than we lost in conference.” This year head coach White thinks that the team is definitely a contender for the conference title. It has been in the hands of Eau Claire for the past few seasons; they haw lost a few members of their starting fiw. Whitewater, with the return of the Grlmos brothers, Bob Stone, and Tom Van de Bogart, will also be a threat to the Titan team. For the Titans, fiw lettermen will be returning. Rocky Jiroch, an outstanding guard with a 17 point awrage Is back, 18 along with Greg Selbold, a 6’5” all -conference forward shooting for the 1000 point club of the season. Also back will be John DeYoung, a 6’4 foreward; Dan Berner, a 6'8 center; and guards Tom Norris and Mark Jamison. New prospects to watch for during the season are Pete Mclnholz, a G’l guard from Eau Claire who is looking good in practice, and 5'4 foreward Joel Carter, Just out of the Navy. A Junior college transfer, Leon Kanlszewaki, 6'5 forward-center, will also help strengthen the front line. Four other transfers, Bob Stelf, Ambrose Radcltff, Tom Sudcamp, and Mark Schaefer will be actiw second semester. Coach White’s philosophy for the players is for them to do the best they can. He asks them to put out 100 per cent. He felt that last year’s team worked together and played as a unit. With this attitude, the Titan team can go far. Good attendance at the basketball games boosts player morale. “People always want a winner and support a winner,” says Coach White. With the competition as tough as they are, it’s going to be a rough road for the Titans this year. With the up and coming season Coach White, the assistant coaches, and the players are well prepared. If the Titans are to come up with a 16-8 season again or with a perfect record and take the title away from Eau Claire, one thing Is certain; the support by the college and the community are very Important to the Titans. n 19 swimming, remain “The swimming program at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh was definitely hurt by Governor Lucy’s killing of the Higher Education Building Program,” according to Swimming Coach Jim Davies. The killing of the program forced the University Allocations Committee to delay the building of a new swimming pool complex which was so badly needed to improve the swimming program. “With the present facility at Albee Hall, Pm embarrassed to show prospective swimmers the pool,” Coach Davies added. The pool is so small that it forces the swimmers and divers to practice separately. “To add to the problem, the three-meter diving board is in such poor shape it is almost too dangerous to dive off of,” says Coach Davies. Because of the poor facilities, Coach Davies has only been able to recruit local talent. The majority of the swimmers are from either the Oshkosh or Milwaukee areas. Despite this handicap, the Oshkosh swim team has some surprisingly outstanding individuals. One of these individuals is Chris Keefe, a native of 20 program still afloat? Oshkosh. Keefe became the first Titan swimming All-American when he finished sixth at the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics championship. He virtually rewrote the swimming record book at UNV-O during the 1971-72 season with eleven individual records. Another Oshkosh native, Pat Pretty, finished third in the 200-yard butterfly at the conference meet, and set varsity marks in the 200-fly and 200-yard individual medley. Other swimmers who are expected to do an outstanding job are Dennis Blachley and Bob Stock, both from the Milwaukee area. The diver for the Titans is Dick Nied from Chicago. Dick never had high school experience and as Coach Davies put it, “Dick has succeeded by sheer hard work.” Lately Dick has been practicing at Oshkosh North High School because the facilities there are far superior to those at the university. The success of the swimmers can partly be accredited to their coach. Coach Davies has a very impressive swimming background. At the University of Wisconsin, Coach Davies continued on page 68 21 Meet the wrestling coach by dave kemper and vernon neal Wrestling Is a basic struggle with two men, hand in hand, attempting to throw each other on their backs. Men who participate in the field of wrestling are about the toughest and the best conditioned athletes in any athletic program. When the two wrestlers meet for a match, every ounce of strength is used to overcome the opponent. It is also a sport of constant motion; once a wrestler lets up, his opponent will take advantage of the situation and move in on his adversary. The sport is so demanding it takes more than strength which is often stereo-typed with wrestling, to overcome an opponent. “It also takes technique. Technique is so much more important, as is basic endurance and the ability to move your man while moving on your man ' according to University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh Wrestling Coach, Tom Eitter, Coach Eitter's wrestling background is very impressive. He competed in high school wrestling at Minneapolis De La Salle and then moved on to St. Cloud State University, one of the top small college wrestling schools in Wrestling Coach Tom Eitter the country. In college he was a national point getter in a country-wide tournament. After college he wrestled three years in A.A.U. tournaments and placed high in a number of the meets. His coaching background began at Foley High School in Minnesota, where he worked his way up from assistant to head coach. He later moved to Winona State College where he was assistant coach and then coached at a private school in North Dakota before coming to Oshkosh last year. Coach Eitter prepares his grapplers by the philosophy that it isn’t good enough to beat a wrestler who is not only as good as you but also a wrestler who is better than you. He does this by putting his wrestlers through daily, strenuous practices. Mr. Eitter breaks the practice into three separate phases. First, the team warms up with calisthenics and conditioning exercises. Then the coach instructs the wrestlers in new techn ues of wrestling and finishes with grueling one-on-one combat. The mentor added, “Our practice plan can be very flexible. Wetrytogive the wrestler a great deal of variety, but the main thing is to get the wrestler in the best condition possible.” How well this system works depends on the progress of the individual wrestlers made from last years team. Coach Eitter noted in an interview, “this is the second year that we are using our system of wrestling and already I can see that there has been much progress.” If the outstanding individual records recorded by members of last years team are any indication, this years team should be quite successful. Ron Dworak is a returning conference champion; he lost only one match and that was in the nationals at the 142 pound weight class. Coach Eitter added, “we expect Ron to defend his conference title and we are also hoping that he can achieve status as a national place finisher.” Also back is George Strozewski who won last years Poncher award as the most dedicated wrestler. He placed second in the conference meet last year. Rick Dworak, Danny Mussoon, Dave Van Duser, Mike Rysps, and ( Danny Wiza are other letter-men that could help the team greatly. continued on page 68 22 Contest smokes out new chomp r photos and text by mike shores If Oshkosh Is not unique enough. It added yet another cluster of Individuality to it’s collection. The matter under scrutiny was the second annual Wisconsin Pipe Smoking Contest hold at the Elks Club of Oshkosh. The smoke-in was sponsored by the Edgeworth Tobacco Company, whose responsibility it was to fill all 40 some contestants pipe bowls with the regulation 3.3 grams of tobacco. The start was like that of a keenly competltve race in which all the participants tried to anticipate the gun. The ‘gun’ here however was simply an electric switch which started a wall clock. Each smoker was given two matches and one minute to light his pipe. During that time the room was transformed suddenly from a stuffy old room to one ablaze with TV lights and the smell of an old corner tobacco store. After an hours puffing on the meager allowance of tobacco, only five were left. One, to everyone’s surprise, was a woman, Francis Scheiblnger. She reportedly was smoking a pipe for the first time with ono she borrowed from her husband. Very soon after that only two were left; Richard Osborne, a UW-0 art teacher and Karl Frank, an Oshkosh business man. From the start Osborne had remained separated from the crowd, relaxing with his feet on a chair and avoiding the glare of the TV lights as if to put all his concentration into the event. It was to no avail, however, as Frank went on to win the contest and became the new state champ with the winning time of 81 minutes and 23 seconds. Whether it was their great-grandfather’s pipe or a 49? corncob that someone may have picked up on the way to the contest, it was apparently enjoyed by all. As one of the contestants said afterwards, “The only reason I dropped out was because I couldn’t go without a cigarette any longer. 23 Poetry WHEN SHE SMILES Light skinned lady your blood rises kindles your face You turn your vital color to the sun as a leaf its chlorophyll Sunset woman our bloods rise 8 lines A star Fell from the sky.

Clubs provide members with maps of marked CON CON CON CON CON CON CON CON CON CON Snowmobiling Con Statement by Dr. William Willers Constructing arguments against the popular snowmobile Is, I've found, rather fruitless. Hostility Is commonly generated within fans of the machines and nothing ever seems to get resolved. At this point I’m convinced that much of the reason for poor communication Is due to the fact that snowmobllers on the one hand and environmentalists on the other hand represent two opposing value systems. They are, If you will, on different wavelengths. I imagine there will be some objection to my use of “environmentalist” as the antonym of snowmobller, but in my terminology the use is Justified. Environmentalism, in the finest sense of the word, is an affair of the heart. It’s quite possible for someone to digest a given amount of information on pollution or the exploding population and then, intellectually and on a rational basis, develop a certain concern for the environment. On a distinctly different plane, however, is the individual who, perhaps through an experience In the wilderness, has developed an increased awareness cf the natural world and a visceral concern for its integrity. In this latter case, environmentalism becomes not a mere duty but a way of viewing the world and life in general. It becomes an integral part of one’s value system. Putting it differently, and by using an example, f my thesis is essentially this: Show me a man whose idea 26 trails. Many clubs give courses on first aid and safety, in addition to cooperating with the local police and sheriff’s department in rescue missions when needed. Following some typical Wisconsin blizzards, the snowmobile is the only means of transportation until highway crews can open the roads. Ice fishermen find snowmobiles much safer than cars when traveling on big lakes in search of the best fishing spots. Snowmobiters tiave great respect for the beautiful outdoors; they do not litter, and they discourage littering by others. Nature provides us with a wintor wonderland, and a snowmobiler takes every opportunity to preserve and enjoy it. Reaction by Dr. William Willers I don't imagine this exchange erf views will alter tike thinking of anyone who has strong pre-existing feelings on the subject, but it does bring into sharp focus what I meant by my reference to differing value systems, and I was therefore quite happy with the statements made by Mr. Lehman. For purposes of contrast I couldn’t have asked for more. One might gather from his presentation that the snowmobile should be praised in northern climes as tlio saviour of community spirit and the family unit. But it’s not absolutely clear to me why such activites as skiing, snowshoeing and skating couldn’t have qualified long ago. And I think it unnecessary to comment on statements that snowmobilers always scok permission for access and, further, that they don’t litter. It’s obvious that Mr. Lehman and I, though we share a general geographic locale, live in different worlds, and continued on page 68 Mr. Arthur Lehman of outdoor fun is charging across the landscape in a machine and I’ll show you a man who hasn’t the foggiest notion of what a subtle enjoyment of, and involvement with, nature is all about. To the environmentalisUto the individual who would be close to nature-the snowmobile constitutes a gigantic aesthetic affront. Furthermore, because these machines are so loud and can go virtually anywhere, those who wish to escape them find they cannot. In short, the ethic of the machine-oriented man has been forced upon all of us. The forest in winter, not many years ago an incredibly silent and lovely world, has now been Imbued with the aura of the interstate highway. Within a decade, snowmobiles and their brethren, the trail bikes and the all-terrain vehicles, have left the confines of marked roads and noisily invaded the last outposts of nature. Really, I wouldn’t think of categorically damning snowmobiles anymore than I would automobiles. But for the same reason that I hate to see cars tearing through the woods in June, I hate seeing snowmobiles doing just that in January. Nor are more tangible abuses of the environment by snowmobiles difficult to find. For example, they cause significant habitat destruction. Powder snow has insulative properties important for the winter survival of many creatures. Whore packing by snowmobiles occurs there have been reductions in the populations of some species. Packing also tends to modify drainage during thaws. Because there is a greater tendency for watertorunoffthelandrather than seep into it, erosion is favored. Eros ion sites are also formed when, with thin snow cover, gouges are made in underlying soil. Evidence indicates that snowmobiles cause stress in wild animals.

Posed against a still life background sho becomes a learning experience for art students in a figure drawing class offered by the art department. As a part of the still life Holly is viewed by art students more as an abstract form or an anatomical study rather than a naked human body. Holly’s trade can be traced to California where she drifted into the modeling field because of financial difficulties. Sho gradually worked her way to tho Midwest, spending one year in Soul City, Iowa ami three years in Chicago bofore finally reaching Oshkosh. It Is Chicago Holly considers her place for acquiring professionalism. In fact she claims to have been oi ' of the ten top models in the Chicago art circle. Although she did attend a professional modeling school for a short time, the majority of her experience has been gained through free lance modeling. Sometimes working as much as seven days a week, including: mornings, afternoons and nights, she has posed for various art groups. She has also posed for such famous places as the Chicago Art Institute, Academy of Fine Arts and Chicago Art Academy among others. Jobs are secured through employment agencies, inquiring at art institutions and simply meeting artists. 28 Work being scarce the summer of 1966, Holly began to investigate the possibility of modeling for the Wisconsin University Systems. On a friend’s recommendations she paid special attention to Oshkosh and ultimately became UW-O’s first nude model. Although the Oshkosh Job was intended to be a summer position, a permanent contract was offered and the security of it was too alluring for Holly to resist. Holly has become a valuable addition to the Oshkosh art department, and she has broken the ice for others to follow. Student models now help out though none of them pose completely nude. Community reaction to the campus nude modeling has been open-minded acceptance. Only two incidents of discontent can be recalled. A few middle aged ladies dropped their figure drawing class out of shock, and one freshman student was forced to drop his figure drawing class by demand of his parents. The Oshkosh art department has treated Holly well. Although she does enjoy modeling as a career her real love lies with the circus of which sho once was a mombor. Having lived in many places she finds each environment to have equally rewarding aspects. Aside from modeling she finds Oshkosh suitable for scientific gardening. (left: drawing by Karon Thomas, right: drawing by Pam Edward) r the Brat und Brau offers fun, folksinging and free peanuts by sally graves The notorious Ms. Nocturnal Bar Fly has come up with another exciting entertainment establishment to tantalize the tastes of the numerous and varied inhabitants of this fair city. This is what she has to say: “Wow, I’ve really found a nice place to go. This place has the kind of atmosphere that anyone can fit into. There’s a nice cozy fireplace in one corner. I mean its the most real fake fireplace in town. People don’t sit at the bar here, they sit at long picnic-type tables, in booths, and at neat little round bars. If you get the munchies, the place serves real food too (not just potatoe chips). The food is really good, too, especially the cottage fries. If you get the early munchies, or if you need a drink before the day is over (both light and dark beer are on tap) this is the place to go. They open up in time for lunch. Instead of the usual blaring bands, this place features folk singers every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night and there’s no cover charge! And the bartenders wear the cutest hats. They look like Peter Pan revisited. Actually I think they’re supposed to look like old t..me German bar keeps. A friend of mine ordered a brandy old fashion sweet from one of these dides. He returned with the mug (mixed drinks are served in mugs here) and asked her, “do you want a cherry or something in that?” She calmly informed him that yes, she would like a cherry in her drink and an orange slice as well. In answer he said: “We don’t have orange slices. How about a lemon slice?” She agreed to this, but unfortunately the place was all out of lemon slices (she did get her cherry though). In all honesty this place is really great. It’s a place where families and college people and just everyone can have a good time. If you’re hungry, or thirsty, or like folk singing, or if you’re just looking for a good time, why not try the Brat Brau on the corner of Jackson and Pearl? Ms. Bar Fly liked it; maybe you will, too.H Quiver r 30 1 31 lUftaf maizes a good teacher great? by sally graves When asked why he became a teacher, Dr. John Kaspar of the UW-O Biology Department says, “At UW-Madison the only way I learned anything was to explain it to someone else. When I was in grade school I used to think teaching was the worst job in the world.” Speaking about college students, Dr. Kaspar says, “My goal is to give these people as much preparation for life as possible-nottotrickthem.” Dr. Kaspar stresses that, to be a good teacher, one must take into consideration the rights and needs of the student. He feels students should always have the option of asking questions and challenging things. He says, “I don’t like talking AT people. I would rather it would be on a more personal basis.” According to Dr. Kaspar, to be a good teacher, a person must also be critical with him- self. He emphasizes that teaching keeps a person current. A teacher must keep up with the literature and do research to remain current. He warns that if ateacher lectures year after year from yellowed notes the students will find him out. Dr. Kaspar, whose hobby of Ornithology eventually became his job, says that in teaching his Ornithology classes his primary objective is to give students an appreciation and enjoyment of Ornithology that will evolve into a life-long interest. In talking about his job, he says, “I feel a person has made a successful choice of profession if his job is a hobby as well as a job.” In conclusion, Dr. Kaspar says the greatest incentive in teaching is that teaching keeps a person in touch with the times. He sees the university as a stimulating microcosm of the world. He says, “through teaching you keep an open mind. Your attitudes don’t become hardened and inflexible. Teaching and listening to students makes you feel comfortable with the changing times. Having people around you who have different ideas gives you a good perspective of the world.” What is a good teacher? A good teacher cares about his students, enjoys what he’s doing, and keeps in touch with the world today. A good teacher is a person like Dr. John Kaspar.

One of the finest houses on the UW-0 campus is the Pollock Alumni House located across the street from Albee Hall. Built in 1920 by Oshkosh industrialist, W.E. Pollock, the house is Spanish in exterior, stucco, with a Mediterranean red tile roof. The interior of the home, however, is reminiscent of the English style buildings in Williamsburg, Virginia. Alumni, students, and visitors to Pollock house are often struck by the spaciousness of the rooms, the beautiful curved stairway in the front hall, and the fine craftsmanship of the woodwork throughout the house. Rennovating and restoring the house to its original lustre has been a project of UW-O Alumni for the past two years; and during this time, the house has been used as the University’s Alumni Office as well as for countless meetings, receptions, and other campus functions. Over 9,000 people have participated in activities held at Pollock House. The Pollock family built the house in 1920 and lived there until 1942 when Mr. Pollock retired and moved to Florida. At that time, Mr. Pollock decided to give the house to the university. This decision plus a gift of $3,000.00 from the Alumni Association made the transfer of the house to the university possible. The a-lumni supporters realized the potential uses of the house and felt that their financial contribution would be of real worth to students and the college community. The house was used as a women’s dormitory for many years. In 1967, the new UW-O School of Nursing .as. With the completion of the new School of Nursing Building, the university felt that the house would make an excellent adult center on campus. The UW-O Alumni Association agreed to refurnish and redecorate the house and operate the facility for campus and alumni use. The UW-O Alumni immediately began the work of cleaning, painting, furnishing, and redecorating the house, and in the fall of 1970, the facility was in operation. Many hours of volunteer labor and financial contributions from alumni have made the house a viable part of campus life. The on-going operation of the house and the Alumni program continues to be supported solely by alumni contributions. included departmental meetings, luncheons, campus receptions, all-day Homecoming activities, and a Benefit Alumni reception to raise money for the UW-O Student Emergency Loan Fund. The Christmas season is a busy time at Pollock House with many faculty, student, and alumni activities scheduled, including the allfaculty Christmas party and an Open House for graduating seniors. UW-O students are invited to visit Pollock House to see for themselves one of the loveliest old homes in Oshkosh. 33 IlfMYRIADS It is said there once was a hardy drinker from London, England, who consumed more than four bottles of ruby port per day for 23 years.

Is the Greek system dying? Why don't independents join sororities and fraternities? How do the Greeks view themselves? Do the Greeks find their lifestyles satisfying? What recent changes have been made by Greek organizations? Below is a random telephone survey of UW-0 students' opinions on the Greek system. An objective in-depth study on the Greeks' I viewpoints follows. 1. Are you male or female? MALE: 52% FEMALE: 48% 2. Are you a Greek or an Independent? GREEK: 8% INDEPENDENT: 92% 3. Do you know any Greeks? YES: 62% NO. 38% 4. Do you feel the Greek System ls dying? YES: 38% NO: 41% NO COMMENT: 6% DON’T KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT THEM: 12% MAYBE: 3% 5. If you had been in college ten or twenty years ago, YES: 50% do you think you would have joined a sorority or fra- NO: 25% terntty? MAYBE: 10% NO IDEA: 15% Forty UW-0 students were randomly poUed by telephone. The purpose of this poll was to sample campus feelings toward the Greek system. Along with the five chartable questions, three questions were asked which required more in-depth answers. The first In-depth question was, If you are an Independent, why haven’t you joined a fraternity or sorority? The most frequent answers were because at lack of time, lack of Interest, and financial reasons. Some of the more vehement reasons for not joining were: Greeks don’t do anything worthwhile.” I don’t have to buy my friends.” Greeks are stupid.” Fraternities and sororities are phony.” People in It (the Greek System) aren’t having fun.” A few less-biased reasons for not joining were given; these Included: I was never approached,” I don’t agree with their policies,” and I’m an Inactive.” Secondly, the students were asked for the rationale behind their answer to the question, Do you feel the Greek system Is dying?” Among those who said the Greek system Is dying, reasons given Included: Many non-Greek organizations now serve the same purpose.” The trend Is away from cliques.” The people who said the Greek system Is not dying made statements such as: People are still Joining.” There are 1000 Greeks on campus and the figure Ls growing.” The last in-depth question asked was Why would you or why would you not Join a fraternity or sorority If ypu were In college ten or twenty years ago?” Most of the people who said they would have Joined said they would have because, Greek life was the In” thing then.” Those who said no” gave the same reasons for not joining as they had in answer to the first in-depth question. 36 What do the Greek people have to say about their fraternities and sororities? In hopes of getting an objective overview of the Greeksystem, seven Greek organizations were randomly chosen for interviewing purposes. These Include one service and two social sororities, and one service and three social fraternities. Greek organizations cite various reasons for their starts on the UW-O campus. Joel Steffen, a member of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, remarked that when his fraternity began here in 1965 at least half of the 15 members were “super brains” who maintained four-point averages; they were looking for something different. One of the oldest sororities oncampus, Gamma Phi Beta, was begun for a three-fold purpose: to make closer and lifelong friends; to strive for a high scholasticstanding;andforsocial fun, according to the president, Linda Hicks. She added, as did Alpha Phi sorority president, Julie Hansen, that these sororities do in-service projects in relation to the campus. Margaret Rudolph, second vice-president of Gamma Sigma Sigma service sorority, said that her sorority was started in 1960 to fulfill a need for a lot of girls who wanted to join an organization for more than the purpose of partying-they wanted to do some service work. Alpha Phi Alpha, a service fraternity, was begun late in 1971 with the purpose of becoming involved in university and community activities. Various responses were given when the Greeks were asked if their organizations had fulfilled their purposes. Phi Sigma Epsilon fraternity vice-president, Robert Shermeister, said he thinks his fraternity’s “goal of brotherhood and helping each other out” has been realized. He feels that his fraternity is “definitely a social organization and a good change of pace.” “You get tired of going out to the bars on ‘The Strip,’ and you also have the advantage of living with a group of guys and still having your own privacy in a frat house,” he added. Linda Hicks, president of Gamma Phi Beta sorority, said her sorority sisters' “genuine concern for each other is personally satisfying,” and is an indication of the fulfilling of one of her sorority’s goals. Bradley Thurman, historian for Alpha Phi Alpha service fraternity, remarked that his fraternity has done a good job at fulfilling the service aspect, especially since it is a fraternity with black students, in a predominantly white community. He added that his fraternity welcomes membership of all students on campus, although present membership consists of nine black students. His fraternity has been actively involved in the local ABC (A Better Chance) program, in various fund raising projects within the community, and in the organizing of test ar.d paper files for other UW-O students’ uses, as well as for fraternity members. Gamma Sigma Sigma service sorority has also met its goal of servicing. “We have everything that the social sororities have, but we have given the girls a little bit more, and that's the opportunity to contribute of their services,” Margaret Rudolph said. Gamma Sigma Sigma performs services to the campus, the community, and the nation. Oncampus, members work at the blood bank; a standing community project 1s that of raising money for the March of Dimes. Gamma Sigma Sigma members annually contribute their services to a national convention project. This year the national project concerns public health, and local members are working with aged people and welfare families. “The girls find their service contributions and their closeness of sisterhood very personally satisfying, but it’s still not like a social sorority,” Margaret Rudolph remarked. Two social sororities, Delta Zeta and Alpha Zi Delta, have “folded” on the UW-O campus during the past year. Is this a general indication of a dying Greek system on the UW-O campus? Most of the interviewees seemed to think not. Despite recent general drops in memberships, they feel that most of the Greek organizations here will soon begin to follow the current national trend of agrowing popularity of the Greek system. Only two social fraternities of all the Greek organizations interviewed have maintained stable memberships throughout the past three or four years. One of these. Phi Sigma Epsilon, has main- tained a membership of 60 for the last three years; 70% of this current membership are freshmen and sophomores, according to vice-president Robert Shermeister. SlgmaTauGamma, one of the largest and oldest social fraternities on campus, and which presently has 68 members, attributes their past and present stability in membership to hard work. “School spirit used to be an important part of Greek life, but our membership hasn't gone down as school spirit has gone down,” said Bil Rodgers, president-elect. “The Sig Taus have always been responsible. And success breeds happiness-companionship is the key, and the more, the merrier,” he added. Not all of the interviewees felt that the Greek system is on the rise, however. Bradley Thurman (Alpha Phi Alpha service fraternity historian) thinks it is dying somewhat, and that fraternities are no longer a dominating force on campus. He explained: “You have to be a college student first and a Greek second. Several factors have contributed to the past and present drops in membership, interviewees said. Apathy for Greeks and the housing rules which prevent underclassmen from living off campus were the two most commonly noted factors. “There is an anti-Greek feeling on campus that Influences a lot of kids,” Julie Hansen (Alpha Phi) commented. “The ADVANCE TITAN-which is a very anti-Greek paper-has a lot of influence on campus, too,” she added. Jay Alien-dor, president of Sigma Phi Epsilon social fraternity, said his fraternity reached its lowest point in morale last year, even though the Sig Ep membership this year has dropped to its lowest number since the fraternity 37 was begun on campus. He attributes the loss in morale and in members to tho fact that “the fraternity was changing and a lot of guys didn’t think they could fit in anymore.” Because of a lack of interest in the organization itself, we just didn’t go out and get pledges, but they were there,” Allender wont on to say. Another factor which has affected the Greek system on campus, that of a nationwide shift in emphasis from the group to the individual, was cited by Allender. He feels that the morale of his fraternity is returning quickly because “we’ve gotten rid of the general apathy, and we’ve come to realize now that individuals can work together as a group. We’re smaller now, but there’s a greater feeling of real friendship.” Bradley Thurman feels that Alpha Phi Alpha’s memberships may be low because its members don’t recruit members and they don’t pledge freshmen. According toThur-man, no one has ever quit the service fraternity; most of the members lost have dropped out of school. He indicated, though, that those members who aren’t in school still maintain close ties with the local chapter. Perhaps rivalry between cliques in the Greek system as a whole has been a reason for a general decline in popularity of the Greek system, he said. Some recent changes have been made by many of the Greek organizations on the UW-O campus. Almost all of the interviewees indicated changes in their pledging programs; prospective pledges of Sigma Tau Gamma, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Phi Sigma EpsUon, and Alpha Phi Alpha fraternities will no longer face the physical harassment and abuse which was for so long a traditional and integral part of the pledging period. Both the Alpha Phi and the Gamma Phi Beta sororities have initiated changes in their rush and pledging programs, too. In order to provide a less formal atmosphere during the rush period, .these sororities now have “open smokers” Instead of the traditional teas and open houses. Alpha Phi now allows first-semester freshmen to pledge, too. Julie Hansen (Alpha Phi president) feels, “the pledge program is much better now-the pledges never really got to know the active chapter AS PEO before.” Gamma Phi Beta rece , formed the office of Chapter Programs within its structure. President of the sorority, l.inda Hicks, explained that the officer of chapter programs arranges to have guest speakers and educational programs at some of the meetings. For instance, last year a campaign panel met with sorority members to discuss various candidates before the primary elections. She said that the new program has proved to be quite successful thus far. According to Bll Rodgers (president-elect), a big change for Sigma Tau Gamma is its move from Titan Court to a new fraternity house presently being built; in essence, the new frat house will be an apartment house o • o • 38 o • I o • with a basement that all members will share. Alpha Phi Alpha historian, Bradley Thurman, said he would like to see an eventual change in his fraternity’s location from the Multicultural Center to a Greek house. Another change his fraternity is striving for is a greater interaction with the community; any suggestion for achieving these goals are welcomed by his fraternity, Thurman said. Only one Greek lnterviowce said hor service sorority, Gamma Sigma Signup has not made any changes in its system. “We haven’t lowered our standards to up the membership,” Margaret Rudolph (second vice-president) said. She added, “if anything, we have made them (standards) stricter. We have a selective pledging-we prefer quality rather than quantity.” The fact that girls are dropped from membership if they don’t fulfill the set service hour requirement is evidence of Gamma Sigma Sigma’s strict standards. On the average, a girl might put in 75 hours of service during a semester, Rudolph said. The Interviewees discussed in some length the most common stereotypes which they feel people haw of Greeks and their organizations. Robert Sher-meister (vice-president of Phi Sigma Epsilon) said, “there used to be the stereotype that you had to be into a lot of money to be in a frat-our membership dues have actually dropped.” We (Gamma Sigma Sigma) suffer from the same stereotypes that other Greek organizations do, but that doesn’t mean that we ARE the same,” said Margaret Rudolph. She went on to say, “often we suffer from a worse stereotype, that of not being 'social beings’ but, rather. Just service workers.” Gamma Sigma Slgmadoes participate in such campus events as Homecoming and Winter Carnival, and does quite well In the competition, Rudolph added. Alpha Phi president, Julie Hansen, listed what she feels are several stereotypes of sorority girls: snobs, stupid, socialites and social climbers, fashion plays, and beauty queens. She added emphatically, “but I don’t feel that we fit those classifications; we’re human beings, too, not Just stupid stereotypes!” She also pointed out that there are a lot of things the sororitydoesoncam-pus that never get any recognition; the bad things are always capitalized. According to Hanson, the sorority is not like “buying your friendship,” either, and she thinks the members generally get out of it what thoy want. “It (the sorority) is an outlet like any other organization, and people have a right not to be condemned for it. It’s human nature to want to belong to some group, no matter how much someone proports independence. Everyone wants to be an individual, but they still want to be part of another group-ANY group-that they can obtain a feeling of closeness from and participate In,” she said. Bradley Thurman (Alpha Phi Alpha) thinks Greek people are most often stereotyped as close-minded, cliquish people who don’t associate with the rest of the student body. “In reality, though, a fraternity is Just a group of lndividuals-nothing but peoplo-that’s all,” he remarked. Linda Hicks expressed a different view about stereotypes. She doesn’t think there is a stereotype of her sorority. Gamma Phi Beta, and the members don’t want one, either, she said. “You can’t classify us as being one certain type of girl; there are a lot of Individuals in the sorority, and no real cliques. We’re not LOOKING for a certain type of girl,” she explained. According to Bll Rodgers, the Sig Taus feel there is no stereotype applicable to their fraternity, either. “Our fraternity is a place for any kind of person, and there aren’t any noticeable cliques within it,” he said. Another member of the fraternity, Jeff LeRoy, added, “the frat doesn’t try to change indi-viduals-each individual's goals and Interests are respected and accepted by everyone else.” “You learn, in a frat, not to stereotype your friends or other people because you are living with ALL kinds of people. The frat teaches you not to LOOK for something in people but to accept them for what they are and to accept their ways,” he said. He summed up his thoughts by saying, “that’s what fraternity life is all about-learning to live with all kinds of different people.” He feels that a lot of people don’t realize these underlying advantages of being in a fraternity. Dave Andrews (Sigma Phi Epsilon) said, “When I pledged, everyone thought I was on a big ego trip and that frats were really irrelevant.” “The general sterootype when I pledged was that you’d Join a frat if you couldn’t make your friends anywhere else, or that you could always Join a frat to meet girls, too,” Jay Allendcr added. He went on to say, 39 “The ‘freaks' may think we stereotype them, but they stereotype us Just as much. The ADVANCE TITAN has done a great Job In stereotyping Greeks too.” According to Allender, the Slg Eps are not “out to win Winter Carnival trophies;” that's not their purpose. “Our purpose Is to learn to live together-it's not the name Sigma Phi Epsilon that counts, but the poople In it,” he said. Another Slg Ep, Bob Coulter, feels, “You can look at it as an advantage or an opportunity to Join something, to learn to live with people, or to try something new; It (the fraternity) has a wide spectrum of things to offer to the Individual. Some poople take part In it and some don’t; likewise, some people like it and some don't.” He concluded, “But then, it’s not for everybody, and we’re NOT TRYING to make It that way.” 1 .

Oshkosh B B Tap Wisconsin r Electronic music and the female poet by barb ernst Interesting and significant things are happening at UW-O. Dr. Barbara Segnitz of the English Department and Ms. Carol Rainey have recently completed their anthology of contemporary women poets. Psyche; the Feminine Poetic Consciousness; An Anthology of Modern American Women Poets, published by Dial Press, will be available in the summer of 1973. The collection includes selections from 25 women poets, 11 of which are considered to be major poets such as Emily Dickinson and Slyvia Plath, in addition to several new, young poets who represent modern poetic trends. The selections are preceded by a long critical preface which attempts to isolate the mythic and psychological themes common to women poets. The selections of each of the major poets are prefaced by individual comments and insights into their works. According to Dr. Segnitz, the work attempts to promote good poetry and also get at the female consciousness through poetry. Too often poetry anthologies omit women poets or only treat the the most common writers. Women poets are usually under - represented, or, worse, misrepresented in standard anthologies. The book is intended to present a sound sampling of women poets which could appeal to the general poetry reading public or could act as a supplement to courses in contemporary poetry or women studies. Dr. Segnitz is careful to explain that she does not pro- 42 pose segregation of the sexes as someone might imply from her anthology format. However, she likens the women’s movement to the black movement, in that women need to be focused upon in depth and then be reintegrated more successfully to the fullest ad van • tage to society. Women poets need to be recognized in a more realistic viewpoint. Dr. Barbara Segnitz Various central themes emerge from the works of these female poets. Manyex-press a conflict between their role as poet and their role as women. Their poetry reveals a conflict between honoring the creative impulse and conforming to the traditional female role. This conflict is tremendous, and many of the poets such as Emily Dickinson strive for “definition on one’s own premises,’’ that is redefining themselves according to their own reality regardless of social impositions. The poetry and critical works in “Psyche’’ promise to expand upon these themes and conflicts and present a substantial basis for beginning and redefining process. Along with his heavy teaching load, Dr. Rolv Yttrehus of the UW-O Music Department is also a composer. G 3nerally, he composes tvelve-tone serial music in the tradition of Schoenberg and Webern. His pieces have been performed throughout the country at such events as the Composer’s Conference in Vermont and the Fromm Festival of Contemporary Music in Tanglewood, Massachu-settes. Dr. Yttrehus is currently involved in the construction of an electronic music laboratory at UW-O. Electronics is increasingly becoming one of the common tools of the modern composer. Edgar Varese, a pioneer in electronic music, began experimenting with electronics in the 1920’s, and modern composers frequently utilize electronics to expand the limits of their field. The invention of the tape recorder, as opposed to the previously used phonograph record, helped electronic music composers tremendously in their work. Electronic music and musique concrete, natural sounds, could be taped and then changed through filtering or speed controls to produce new sound variations. Unfortunately, much of the electronic music which the general public is exposed to is not of first-rate quality, and is often the product of Dr. Rolv Yttrehus an “anything goes” philosophy. However, Dr. Yttrehus asserts that much electronic music is being produced which is highly commendable. Yttrehus considers Milton Babbitt's electronic work, “Philomel” for soprano and tape, to be a real masterpiece, and further asserts that electronic music is just as “serious” and worthwhile as more traditional music forms. Through the honest, creative use of electronics, music can now be produced which was previously too difficult and too precisely exacting for more traditional instruments. The electronic music laboratory, which Dr. Yttrehus is helping to develop, is located in the basement of the Fine Arts Building. The equipment has recently been acquired and is not yet in full operation. The lab includes electronic oscilators and amplifiers which lend themselves to fascinating new possibilities in the field of music. UW-0 does not presently include a course specifically in electronic music, and due to budget cuts, such a course is not planned for the immediate future. However, with Dr. Yttrehus' help, the electronic music lab will be utilized by students enrolled in present composition courses at UW-O. A 43 NANCY J.

I suppose, though, that in a fit of humanltartanlsm, 1 should bo happy for Mr. Lehman who, to use his own words, used to think of snow with annoyance. Through the miracle of the internal combustion engine, he has finally discovered nature. H . Quiver Wrestling continued from pago 22 With this nucleus of wrestlers to work with. Coach Eltter feels that what he accomplishes as far as wins and losses are concerned depends on how well the Oshkosh wrestlers fare against a tough non-conference schedule. Oshkosh has added teams such as Northern Illinois, the ninth place finisher in last year’s N.C.C.A. University tournament, and Illinois State, another top University division school. Also added to the schedule are St. Cloud State, Eastern Illinois, Northern Michigan, and Winona State. Coach Eitter hopes the tougher non-conference schedule will better prepare Oshkosh for tho conference tournament and also the national tournament. Swimming continued from page 21 was elected to the prestigious All-American team, and after graduation he coached the University of Wisconsin freshman swim team 'efore coming to Oshkosh. Also, in 10S8 lie was selected to the Olympic Committee that sot up swim trials for the U.S. swimmers. CoachDavies, not wanting to take credit for tho swimmers’ success, feels that his swimmers are highly motivated individuals that are willing to work hard for little glory. As the coach said in an interview, “if a boy is motivated and wants to work hard, he will succeed,” So be it, the swimmers daily tread 5,000 to 6,000 yards of water in little Alliee pool. They expect no glory from the student body, for Albee pool holds only a few spectators. All they want is the personal satisfaction of a good time in a swim meet or a good dive that pleases the swim judges. Coach Eitter hopes his system of wrestling and the tough schedule will improve the caliber of wrestling at Oshkosh. The only regret he has is that only four meets will be at Oshkosh. This will definitely hurt the student support of the team. As the conch said in an interview, ‘•If you are at homo more often, you have something to offer the students to build up some spirit and incentive. We Just haven’t lieon at home enough.” Student spirit or not. Coach Eitter has tried to bring big time wrestling to Oshkosh. f] Pro Con continued from page 27 observation of wildlife from a distance, game, already in poor condition from the stresses posed by winter, may be seen fleeing when approaching machines are yet miles away. Where snows are deep, animals may flounder until they drop from exhaustion. There is also an effect upon vegetation. Saplings, appearing Just above the snow, are commonly run down. I’ve read that snowmobiling is now America’s favorite winter sport and is still on the mad increase. I’m sure this is correct. Swamps and wooded areas in which I used to snowshoe in solitude are, in recent years, so dominated by the machines that experiencing what nature alone can offer is out of the question. And, our intensely materialistic society being what it is, it ippears the situation can only worsen. Alas. Reaction bv Afr. Arthur Lehman During three years of snowmobile ownership I have become more of an environmentalist than at any time of my life. I am able to view and enjoy aspects of nature which have heretofore eluded me. I do not go “charging across the landscape,” and my machine is as quiet as 1 can make it. Hopefully, by next year additional pollution-control devices will be available for snowmobiles. Snowmobiling is one of the few major recreational activities that has seen fit to organize, educate, and control Itself. The organization of local clubs into county alliances for the purpose of setting approved trails, the establishment of schools teaching environmental, personal, and civil protection, and the development of voluntary patrols to regulate and enforce self-imposed (as well as State) regulations are evidence of the snowmobller’s genuine concern for the protection of the environment, as well as his sincere desire to enjoy nature. In short, it is unfair to judge the concerned majority of snowmobilers on the basis of the “lnconsiderates” to be found in any recreational activity. A University of Wisconsin-Madison profile regarding the effects of the snowmobile on the environment ha« found no substantial adverse effects. I do not believe that the snowmobile constitutes any more of an “aesthetic affront” to the environmentalist than does the hunter and his gun, the high-powered motorboat, the motorcycle, the modified automobile, the airplane, etc., etc. Each has its good and bad points; each is loved by some and hated by others. Inevitably, all--though not accepted—must be tolerated, f] 1972-73 GYMNASTICS SCHEDULE oatz oeroHCNT timi srrt 68 1972-73 SWIMitoG SCHEDULE OPPONENT yf Intraaqued Meet n Ri UW-Ciu Cla Ira, Winona State Croaaa UW-Superlor, UW-Stavana Point UW-Mlfwaukee UW-Plattavllla, UW-Whltawatar WSU-Conference Championships NAIA Champlonahlpa Oavlaa ______________________ TIME 7.-00 10:00 3:00 1:00 7:30 7:00 2:00 4:00 7:00 4:00 1:30 SITE Oshkosh Oahkoih Houghton, Ml Superior Marquatta, Ml Oahkoah Manomonla Oahkoah La Croaaa Oahkoah Stevens Point Oahkoah Oahkoah Ptattevllle Pittsburg, KS 1972-73 WRESTUNG SCHEDULE OPPONENT Graceland Tournament Huaklo Invitational _ IKInoia Stata Marauette UW-Stavana Point UW-Stout.

A Letter from the Editor Do you believe in ghosts? Ever been to a ghost town? Well, Mike Shores, a NEW QUIVER photographer, has been to Torlingua and he brought back a mood setting plctoral account. Remember that ghosts don't show up on film, so look through the photo essay and try to Imagine where the ghosts would be. Kay Bloechl interviewed some Veterans on campus and has a picture of Vet life as seen through the eyes of an ex-serviceman. Roberto Lowo wrote an appealing article on the upsurge of Blacks in the movie industry (his style is enticing). Tom Wildermuth has brought up a curious question about sports and college life: do they, or how do they, fit together? Some of tho photosand layout ideas were contributed by Keith I Craves and Bill Dettlaff. Thinking about Graduato School? Ellen Waite tells you a few things one should consider, how to apply, etc. A short story entitled “The Critic” is also featured this month. The very capable author is Gary Bus ha. Have you ever wondered how much money Vice Chancellor Ramsden makes? Or how about any other administrator? Mike Hartzc 11 has this and an explanation on how people in tho system get paid. Hustling—many studentsthlnktheyknowall about it. They may. Ellen Waite has explored another angle. It'll make you think twice about the ever popular bar game. Does living in a dorm make you think of life at Taycheedah or Attica? Or is it seventh heaven to you? Linda McCarty has a varied collection of views straight from the students' mouths. And dorm pictures are featured with crazy candlds of humans that reside in them Wanna eat cheap? Sick of Ronald McDonald’s place and cow meat? Sally Graves has combed the area and found some fantastic bargain fish frys from $1.80 and up. Even a student can afford it. Watch out for whale bones! Barb Ernst has the story on how candle scents are chosen. She also has a story on some UW-O grads and what they're doing with their diplomas. Do you remember who spoke here last semester? Deb Luebke has written short synop-sises of the Speaker Series to refresh your memory. It’s here and much more from the people who brought you Santa at his best. Snow freaks, your ecstasy is here.

Today it’s a ghost town. Terlingua was still in existence during the second world war whon the mining of quicksilver or mercury was important to the war effort. The mine employed over 2,000 miners. Families and the other assorted businesses that tried to make life bearable on the Texas desert made Terlingua a town of considerable size. Ice cream parlors, movie theatres, and bars that once abounded with weary minors now stand naked against the bleaching sun and howling wind of the desert. Its only remaining residents are a few scorpions and rattlesnakes that slither along in the hot sun. Most ghost towns that people hear of haw grave yards filled with tombstones and are a writer’s delight. Epitaphs in a few short lines that 3 r • • 4 :old of a person's life or how he Jled were left for history by the stone cutter. Plain wooden crosses, weathered and cracked from many years on the desert, adorn the graveyard at Terlllngua. No witty sayings break the drab scene of broken crosses overgrown with weeds and cactus. A fancy headstone In the middle of a gray and dusty brown field often attracted more attention than the rest did. The Inscriptions were simple; the date of death and the person's name were given. The most frequent date of death Is 1937, the numerous deaths during that year perhaps resulting from an epidemic or large mine disaster; no one a-round tho area seemed to know the roason. There seems to be little humor left In Terllngua. Perhaps It Is due to the very fact that long contact with mercury eats at a man’s mind and slowly drives him crazy before It eventually kills him. Nothing much scorns to be loft In the town save for tho noise of tho wind whistling through tho buildings or tho barking of wild dogs scrounging for food in the litter left by some careless tourists. The only spot of color In the whole town is not In the town at all, but In the graveyard. The plastic flowers placed on a few of the crosses add color but also soem a bit ludicrous. Technology placed plastic flowers in the lands of peoplo for convenience's sake; they needed little care, and the only drawback Is that they don’t smell. It was the same technology for convenience’s sake which, lneffect, killed Terllngua. photos and text by mike shores i Roger E. Guiles Raymond J. Ramsden Douglas R. Plcht william E.

It takes a good organizational structure and money-a lot of money. The following charts show this administrative structure along with their salaries. Chancellor Roger Guiles heads the administration with Vice Chancellor Douglas Picht and William White heading other groups of administrators and profossors. It Is the responsibility of these groups to carry out directives and programs that the university initiates. Meetings are usually hold onco a week for reports on developments of old programs and discussion of new onos. The salaries listed here are the current salaries paid out to administrators and faculty for 1972-73. The chart Is by no means complete. There are administrative assistants, secretaries and faculty which are paid out of the entire university budget. According to White, 85% of the money the university receives goes to Ramsdcn, 9% to Picht and 6% to himself. Oit of the 85% that Ramsdon receives he must pay all of the salaries for the faculty and those people listed under Academic Affairs and Academic Administration on the chart. Picht must pay administrators listed under Administrative Affairs, while White pays faculty and administrators listed under Executive Functions. A percentage by a name means that they perform more than one duty, like teaching, for the university. In those cases, the rest of their salaries are paid from other funds. It Is Interesting to note that faculty and administrators listed here have received increments over their 1971-72 salaries listed In the university budged book. These Increases were as high as $3,000. With salary Increases as high as this, why then has UW-O had to send out 40 letters of non-retention to various faculty members due to severe budget cuts? Ramsden explained this situation by saying that pay Increases to administrators and faculty • were granted In July of 1972. When UW-0 s enrollment fell short of tho previous projections, the university was forced to give back money which had already been appropriated to them from Madison. Since that time departments and new programs have come under scrutiny, and budget cuts are prevalent everywhere. It Is now February, 1973, and UW-O will have 40 less teachers next year because problems with the budget continues, as does the remodeling of Dempsey Hall. jew Fleurette Antoinette Catch a sparkle from the morning sun.

The Whitehall Co Jewellers 296 Park Plaza 7 - OSA brought some interesting people to campus this year. Dick Gregory, who is fasting until the end of the Vietnam War, spoke about how America always seems to need a “nigger” to point to when things go wrong. He thinks the college student is the current “nigger” and hopes students make sure they are the last. Leonard Nimoy, Dr. Spock of “Star Trek” fame, urged students to support George McGovern for president. He encouraged all students to vote because Nixon would be certain of victory if they were apathetic. An anti-women’s libber, J.J. Jarboe, explained why she’s satisfied with being a housewife. She feels very strongly about a woman’s traditional place in society, and believes a woman should stay in it. Christine Jorgenson talked about the false ideas surrounding her sex change from male to female, and the ridicule she faced because of it. She cleared up many questions in the minds of her audience. Bernadette Devlin, the youngest member of British Parliament, told UW-0 students most people do not know the real reasons behind the Irish conflict. She said the conflict is not religious, as most believe, but a political war between English and Irish factions. According to Brit Hume, an investigative reporter in Washington, the U.S. government is keeping the American people and several departments in Washington ignorant of certain important happenings. The government simply classifies information that they do not want the people to know about as secret information, and the people are denied access to it. A Killer Lives in the Dorm by pityIIis broadbcnl Killer, a regal python eagerly awaits his dinner. A killer lurks In Donner Hall. Although he Is caged up, he breaks out occasionally or is let out by friends. He's from Ghana, Africa and Is quite harmless as a killer. Actually his only victims aro ro-donts. Aro you all confused now? The killer I'm talking about Is a two and a half-foot regal python named Killer and owned by Ken Jenson. Jensen, a 21-year-old biology-major, acquired his pet python while studying at the University of Ghana last year. He is a pre-medical student who went to Africa under a study and ethic program. “Snakes were very common In Africa, said Jensen. Most people hate them, however, because there are many poisonous snakes so people usually kill them, then ask which species later. Pythons trap their prey by constriction so they have no need of poison glands. Jensen said ho can remember four particular instances in one year when snakes got Into his dorm. On a field trip expedition Jensen saw several baby pythons and decided to bring one back to the dorm. He’s always liked snakes and thought of this as an opportune time to obtain one. He also thought about bringing a monkey back, but monkeys require a lot more care awl attention. “It would almost be like 1 laving a baby around, Jenson explained. Also lie wasn't sure how a monkey would get along with his piranha. Jensen grew attached to his python or should we say the python grow attachod to him. When it came time to return to the United States, Jensen decided to bring Killer along. He checked with customs and found that one can bring a reptile back to the States as long as It’s free of disease. There was another restriction that no animals could board the plane, but were to be placed in a ventilated cage with plenty of food and water, and sent as freight at a cost of $50. Jenson decided that he would smuggle his snake back by tying him In an old sock. Officials wore so busy checking luggage for guns and bombs that they missed Killer. Killer makes his homo In a lavish aquarium in Jenson’s room. His home Is furnished with a large dish for swimming, carpeting, a tree bough, and plenty of nowspaper. At two-and-one-half feet long, Killer Is still a growing snake. When lie first got back he was growing an inch a week. Ho was also eating a mouse a week. Killer could eventually grow to about five Inches In diameter, 20 feet In length, and live to be 50 years old, although most snakes In captivity only live to be 15 or 20 years old. Jenson said that Killer Is very easy to care for as there are only-three basic things to remember when keeping a snake: (1) Make sure he has plenty of fresh water. (2) Make sure he has lots of ventilation In his cage. (3) Make sure there is something such as newspapers or rocks for him to withdraw to when he feels a need for privacy. This third point Is the most essential because If a snake can’t hide he will refuse to oat, becomo moody, and lose his ability to reproduce. “This happens a lot in zoos. They want people to be able toseethe snakes easily, so they don’t have much else in the cage, Jensen said. Jensen tried raising mice to feed Killer but found them too messy, so ho now buys them for a quarter apiece at a Milwaukee pet store. Jonscntold of Killer’s first encounter with a large mouso-they both nipped at each other and Killor withdrew to hide. About a month later nothing had changed, except that the mouse was a little scrawnier. (Snakes can live up to a year without food If they aro given plonty of water and ventilation. They have a very low metabolic rate). So Jensen put a smaller mouse In Killer’s cage. In no time Killer did him In and worked up courage for bigger and better things. By the next day the large mouse was nowhere to be seen. There were two lumps (a small one and a bigger one) In Killer’s stomach. Killor can swallow things approximately five times the diameter of his neck. His Jaws dislocate In the back to spread and make swallowing easier. Killor Is a good climber and an ace 10 Ken Jensen lets his pet python wrap around his neck. swimmer. He Is better In the water than on land because that's part of his Instinct. Many pythons Ho In the water with only their nostrils sticking out and wait for animals to come and drink,” Jensen said. Since they have heat receptors that can detect a warm blooded animal at least three foet away, a good sense of smell, and exceptional vision, spotting prey is not too difficult. Pythons constrict their prey until it suffocates. Keeping Killer inthc dorm posed few problems for Jensen. Although dorm regulations allow fish, they are not enforced too strictly. Even the head resident stops by occasionally to see Killer. When Killer pushes the top off of his cage, lie takes to a hiding place. Jensen has found him behind the dresser, on the top closet shelf, and one time In his shoe. At home Jensen's parents require a number of bricks to be laid on top of the cage along with a hatchet, with undesirable consequences If he escapes, so Killer doesn't go homo too ofton. The thing Jensen likes most about Killer is his coloring. He’s such a bright, cryptic yellow and shiny, dark black,” Jensen explains. Killer’s markings are very distinctive and beautiful.” So if you’re in the neighborhood stop in to sec Ken Jenson and Killer. If you’re really friendly maybe they’ll Introduce you to the alligator next door.

A good teacher is a person who likes learning and helping other people learn also. A good teacher is friendly, helpful and involved. A good teacher likes to teach and helps even the most uninteresting subject come alive for everyone in the class. A great teacher puts all these things together, adds a measure of personality and comes across as a person on top of it all. Dr. Kuang-Ming Wu of the Philosophy Department is such a teacher. When asked why he is a teacher, Dr. Wu replied, “I am a teacher because I want to learn from the students. . . from their fresh standpoint and imagination. This attitude is reflective of the way he handles his classes. He has a way of putting words into your mouth, a way of thinking that is fresh, as fresh as the imagination of his students. His enthusiasm is contagious. Dr. Wu’s reasons for teaching are not all as unselfish as they may sound. Out of teaching, I hope to gain a coming-together of knowledge and a fresh interpretation of that knowledge. Besides his usual university duties, Dr. Wu is also involved in the Free University where he teaches a class in existentialism. He is excitable, involved, interested and interesting. That is also the way he likes his students to be; he wants everyone to enjoy learning and thinking as much as he does. As far as I can see that is what makes a good by dcbbie rohn teacher great. Students also hold a very high opinion of Dr. Wu. They see him as an individual, a man who is interested in them and shows it. Dr. Wu would rather have class discussion than lectures, which adds much interest for the class members. I really enjoyed being in his class-it was fun, one student remarked. His interest extends beyond the classroom or even the Free University. The students think of Dr. Wu as a friend. 14 Criticism in Perspectiue by barb crust Current UW-0 students have their own special gripes and evaluations of their departments, courses, and professors, yet their perspective is somewhat limited compared to graduates of the university who have returned to campus. Several UW-0Alumni are currently employed by the university. They work on the staff in various capacities and at various levels, but all have their own views of the school as they look back In retrospect and look into the future. Christine Hoop man Christine Hoop man graduated from Wisconsin State University-Oshkosh in 1971 with a double major in Psychology and Sociology. She is currently the Head Resident of both Evans and Stewart Halls, as well as a graduate student in Counselor Education. Even though she is a recent graduate, Ms. Hoopman sees various changes in UW-O already. Dorm living has changed considerably because of revised policies on such matters as room visitation and curfew hours. Basically, Ms. Hoopman believes that the university needs to provide more practical experience for students in all fields. Upon graduation, she felt as though she was not fully prepared because course work had not been too demanding or challenging for her. She is glad to see the introduction of Clinical Experience courses which give students a practical dose of their chosen profession before it becomes too late to change their minds. However, Ms. Hoopman does believe that Oshkosh graduates are just as prepared as graduates from other universities and are able to compete on an equal basis. Because he graduated from Oshkosh State Teacher’s College in 1955, Dr. Russell Tied-emann has seen a great deal of change in the university. Dr. Tiedemann is a member of the Men’s Physical Education staff as well as the head baseball coach and an assistant basketball coach. He is actively involved in improving athletic programs, and takes a close, personal interest in his students. Tiedemann cites the tremendous growth of UW-O, and all of the repercusions of that growth, as the factor which has caused the most change in the school. In 1955, approximately 1300 students were enrolled as compared with the present figure of approximately 11,000 students. This change in size makes it impossible to maintain student-student and faculty-student closeness, as well as creating an atmos- Dr. Russell Tiedeman phere of less personal involvement. Tiedemann notes, however, that Oshkosh is in a unique position of being large enough to provide for diverse interests and opportunities but still small enough to maintain an element of closeness which universities like Madison lack entirely. Tiedemann believes that UW-0 provides better training for students today than ever before. The quality of education at Oshkosh is high and students are well prepared in their fields. The quality of education is, in fact, what Tiedemann believes to be the significant goal of the school. He wants to see more quality people coming out of Oshkosh by maintaining and improving the quality of education in all respects at UW-O. 15 r Tired of “The Strip? at Westhaven!

The special which I consider to be the best deal is put on by the Westhaven Golf Club every Friday night from 5:00 to 10:30. Westhaven has a beautiful large dining room which overlooks the golf course; a beamed open ceiling, a nice bar, and a front lounge with a fireplace are features of this establishment. The Friday night special includes all of the fish you can eat (perch and haddock), fritters, and a salad bar (fifteen choices), for only $2.25! Now that’s a good deal-especially if you fast for a few days in preparation. Westhaven does have one handicap. It's kind of hard to find. To get there you must take 9th Street to the other side of Highway 41 and then turn left. The golf club is located at 1400 Westhaven (so that’s where they got the name) Drive. On your way back from Westhaven you might stop in at the Holiday Inn, which is located at the Intersection of Highway 41 and 9th Street, and try one of their three Friday night specials. If you have $2.25 on you, you can sit in their red, white, and black dining room and gorge yourself on the liberal bounty of their Friday night buffet. The buffet features shrimp, baked halibut, two other entrees, potato pancakes, and a salad bar. If you prefer a big family style perch dinner, they have that too; for a mere $2.35 you get perch, potato pancakes, cole slaw, and potato salad-served up family style. If you don’t have the cash for this kind of meal, or if you can’t stand to consume anything which does not have beer as a constituent, the beer batter fish (haddock) special is designed for you. The $1.80 special includes cole slaw, potato pancakes, potato salad, and-of course-beer batter fish. Now that’s cheap! If you like family style fish, but prefer a nice drive by the lake to a nice drive past Copps, Hesser’s Supper Club is the place for you. Hesser’s serves a family style fish special, which includes rye bread, potato salad, potato pancakes, and cole slaw, every Friday night from 5:00 to 12:00. For your $2.35 you get to sit in their nice dining room (after trying out their bar with its nautical decor) and eat a lot of nice fish. Hesser’s is located approximately four miles from campus at 3127 Fond du Lac Road. Whether you prefer to eat near the lake, near a golf course, or near Highway 41, there’s a Friday night special that’s right for you. At all three places the portions are generous and the price is low. This Friday night, why not fill your tummy with fish before hitting “The Strip?” The ulcer you save may be your 17 Help for an olfactory factory and business gets the big picture ♦ • by barb erttsl Besides being a well-known and popular member of the UW-0 Psychology department, Dr. Bruce Black is also working on various research projects in his field. An area candle factory recently asked Dr. Black to aid them in a test project which focused upon candle colors and scents. Black presented colored candles without scents and scents without colored candles to voluntary subjectsandaskedthem to rank their preferred color and scent favorites. From this testing situation, various association patterns between colors and scents began to emerge, as well as specific preference patterns among age and sex groups. The group of women subjects between the ages of 18 and 25 chose much different preferences than women in the 35 to 50 age group. Men chose entirely different preferences than either of the women's groups. In general, Black found that women preferred the commercial male product scents and men pre- Dr. Bruce Black ferred the commercial female product scents. Black’s results were quite consistent over a large test subject sampling. Dr. Black has also worked with an area company on devising and teaching safety seminars. By working with company foremen, Black was successful in dramatically reducing the number of lost time and serious accidents. He is also currently involved in working with local scoutmasters. Black finds that too many scoutmasters project an authoritarian, dr ill-sargent manner which has negative effects on the boys. Through retraining and counseling, Black hopes to teach the scoutmasters how to become managers of learning rather than strict authority figures. Dr. Edward Marien of the Business Department is working on a study which will have significant effects on undergraduate business students. Marien feels that too often a student takes a series of courses in his field which treat only one set of very specific problems. Education tends to be too over-specialized, and no relationships are seen between the various courses. Students often lose sight of the total picture so that larger, generalized problems seem overwhelming. Therefore, Marien has set up an experimental program in an attempt to develop more efficient methods of instruction. Three fundamental business courses-management, finance, and marketing- which are traditionally taught as separate, three-credit classes were integrated into a mass lecture-small group discus- Dr. Edward Marien sion basis. The professors for each course work together as a team to reduce repetition and to reinforce each other's objectives. The experimental course also employs business management games in which groups of students are responsible for fictitious companies. They compete with one another and must handle all problems which arise. Marien is not merely satisfied, however, to institute new programs. The new course promotes greater student participation and students learn how to learn from each other by sharing their ideas. Yet Marien is pressing his program in terms of evaluation and measured gains. Enthusiasm is not enough. One of his major premises aims at the quality of education and methods of measuring the total effectiveness of the program in terms of student a-chievement. q Quiver 18 i • g) p a 0 {? 8 0 S photography by kelly lattglcy 19 n - Lately, there has been much talk of minority groups and their problems hero at UW-O. But there Is one group of students on campus which has more than Its share of problems, but seldom Is heard of. This group consists of tho dozen or more students that are either blind or require the use of a wheelchair or walking crutches. One such student. Sue Voss, Is pictured here. The problems faced by those students stem from the presence of architectural barriers. Recently, three Social Work majors conducted a survey to determine the kinds and extent of these barriers on the UW-O campus. Interest In the problems faced by these students Is not held solely by the Social Work Department. Not long ago. Chancellor Guiles sent a directive to Physical Facilities In regard to architectural barriers. Physical Facilities have since conducted a survey and made certain recommendations. But at the present tlmo, it appears that thoro will not be any actual work on these problems until spring. You know it ain't easy 20 Focus on the Grad’s Decision Seniors who are considering graduate school and who have problems in choosing the school or finding out the requirements of the various schools should stop at the University Counseling Center for help. The library at the center contains current college catalogues and outlook by ellen unite Students should explore many programs before they make their final decisions. Points that Dr. Groeneveld feels students should consider include what the individual wants from the graduate school in terms of his personal outlook, courses the schools offer and his choices of future employ- requirements of the departments within the graduate schobl. Many schools require the Graduate Record Examination, which consists of a general aptitude test and an advanced test in the area of the student’s major field. These tests are given throughout the country at accredited universities on six different dates. Applications for these tests can be picked up at the Testing Center. Dr. Groeneveld believes that a trend of students considering graduate school is developing because of the flooded job market. Students are wary of entering the professions because they will not get the job they want or that they have prepared for. Grad- A secretary helps a student find the information he needs. handbooks that give an overview of the institutions. The staff, though they cannot choose the school for the student, is capable of channeling him to people and resources that may help the student decide on a particular school. Dr. Leroy Groeneveld, a counselor at the center, stresses that the Counseling Center is a legitimate place to come for the problem of finding the right graduate school. Dr. Groeneveld m Jk LmJiiKlI ment. Another important factor in the choice is the philosophical basis of the school. Each institution has different qualities that distinguish it. Sometimes the school the student first chooses is not the best one because the school’s outlook and the student’s perspectives do not fit into a constructive scheme. It is hard to prepare the student for every graduate school since most schools have various requirements that are complicated even more by the uate school has become another road that is looking better to students who want to improve their qualifications instead of settling for second-rate jobs. Schools are being filled to capacity, making the enrollment requirements harder. Many qualified students are turned down each semester because of the volume of applicants.

EBONY magazine questions whether they are a reflection of a culture or merely a con game. Roy Inn Is, head of the Congress of Racial Equality has denounced them as racist exploitation. Media critics, reviewers, civil rights groups and writers have expressed a whole spectrum of opinion on them ranging from outright approval to savage condemnation.

With the exodus The object of these varied commentaries is, of course, the new upsurge in black-oriented films and the effect it is having on the minds of black moviegoers. of whites from the Inner city, the economic slum of the movie industry, rising production costs of films, and the discovery that blacks now make up 405 of the movie audience and would pay any price to see themselves In significant roles on the screen, the major movie makers made an abrupt about-face two years ago and began releasing a whole new crop of films featuring and or dealing with the black experience. The results haw been spectacular- -and highly controversial. The films mot with a receptive audience among blacks and were sometimes single-handedly responsible for creating a profit for some movie studios. In a sense It all started with the 1970 film “Cotton Comes to Harlem.” When this movie, starring Raymond St. Jaques and Godfrey Cambridge grossed over $7 million dollars, producers got the message. There followed In quick succession such black classics as “Shaft,” “Sweet Sweetback Badd-asssss Song,” “Superfly, “Buckand the Preacher,” “The Legend of Nigger Charley,” “Shaft's BlgScore,” “Cool Breeze, “Lady Sings the Blues,” “Blacula,” Come Back Charleston 22 f Blue, ‘‘Sounder, Trouble Man, Slaughter, Black Gun, Black Majesty, The Werewolf from Watts, and even Blackfathor and Black Christ. Fully one third of the two hundred films produced by Hollywood each year will either star, deal with, or relate to blacks. There was a time, not too long ago, when blacks would haw been delighted to see themselves doing ANYTHING on the screen. But with the current upsurge of black consciousness and Identity, that outlook has been sup-planted by a greater Interest In the Fully one third of the two hundred films produced by Hollywood each year will either star, deal with, or relate to blacks. IMAGE In which blacks are being portrayed. And herein lies the crux of the controversy: many critics contend that tho now crop of black films not only rip off and exploit blacks but that they are promoting unhealthy Influences among the black movie audience. Julius Griffin, president of the Beverly Hllls-Hollywood chapter of the NAACP expressed one of tho most vigorous denunciations of the current sot of black films when he said: We must toll white and black movie pro- Back Rinther Leader Huey Newton branded the films as “dangerously counter-revolutionary. ducers that we will not tolerate the continued warping of our black children’s minds with the filth, violence and cultural lies that are all pervasive in current productions of so-called black movies. . .that glorify black males as pimps, dope pushers, gangsters and super males with vast physical prowess but no cognitive skills.” Black Panther leader Huey Newton branded the films as dangerously counter-revolutionary. One civic organization. In denouncing Super-fly, contends that the movie glorifies tho use of cocalno, casts doubt upon the capability of law enforcement and casts blacks In roles which glorify dope pushing, pimping and grand theft.” Tony Brown maintains: Going to see yourself as a drug dealer whon you’re oppressed Is sick. Not only are blacks identifying with him, they’re paying for the identification. It’s sort of like a Jew paying to get into Auschwitz. Another concorn expressed by both black critics and feminists alike Is that black movies portray women, primarily black women, as nothing more than cheap sex outlets. Richard Rountree, for Instance, was criticized for bedding and showering with two women: one black, one white, without any kind of prelude, rapport or emotional Involvement. Ron O’Neal does his thing in the bathtub with Sheila Frazier In Superfly” and Jim Brown displays his sexual prowess with such stars as Raquel Welch (“100 Rifles”) and Stella Stevens ( Slaughter ). Not only do these images blatantly present a sexist attitude on the part of black male stars, the critics contend, but they also tend to perpetuate the stereotype of the super-sexual black stud. Black film critic Clayton Riley asserts that the Shaftlan characterization gives the impression that tho problems of the black community can be solved with a “swift kick and a stiff penis.” A point that seems to oscapo several of these critics Is that this super-masculine type of characterization can be traced to a big MACHISMO hangup which is quite popular In the United States. For somo reason the virile, self-assured male fulfills an Inner Not only do these images blatantly present a sexist attitude on the part of black male stars, the critics contend, but they also tend to perpetuate the stereotype of the super-sexual black stud. psychic need of most moviegoers, black and white, make and female. Hollywood has responded to this demand by over dramatizing the concept of manhood, quite often In the most perverse ways. Sometimes it came from Humphrey Bogart In gangster movies, John Wayne In westerns, Sean Connery In the James Bond epics or George C. Sccft In the war movie Patton.” The themes of the movies may have varied from time to time, but the effect remains constant: to glorify the cult of virility. Only the color of the skins has changed. Coming to the defense of the black movies are advocates who argue that after all movies are morely escapist entertainment, that screen portrayals do not have to reflect social reality and that the producers are merely responding to tho law of supply and demand. John Dotson, Los Angeles Bureau Chief of NEWSWEEK asserts that the new black heroes are adding another dimension . . . many defenders of black films contend that these movies are having a positive impact in bringing blacks to the forefront of such denied opportunities as directors, script writers, soundtract recording artists, and stuntmen. to the black being and that for the first time blacks are getting to soc themselves as they really are. Besides , many defenders of black films contond that those movies are having a positive impact in bringing blacks to the forefront of such previously denied job opportunities as directors, script writers, soundtract recording artists and stuntmen. They point to such examples as Ossie Davis, Gordon Parks, Jr. and Sr., Melvin Van Peebles, Isaac Hayes and Curtis May-field. One issue on which both critics and defenders seem to agree Is that the black participants and community as a whole are not getting its proportional share of the profits from these movios. For example, Richard Rountree was paid only $13,500 for his role in Shaft, a movie which grossed over $14 million in the United States alone and cost only $500,000 to produce. Most of the first-run distribution rights of black movies are in the hands of white entrepreneurs and they make no bones about reaping The point on which there seems to be the most controversy, however, is whether or not these movies are presenting unhealthy images for black people to follow. substantial profits for themselves. The point on which there seems to be the most controversy, however. Is whether or not these movies are presenting unhealthy images for black people to follow. This issue is certainly the most complex since no reliable sociological study hasbcenable to come up with an answer as to whether movies influence the times or merely mirror them. Even the million dollar Advisory Committee’s Report to the Surgeon General could not establish a direct correlation between televised violence and harmful attitudes. TV GUIDE magazine summed up the report as A Nonsolution to a Nonproved Problem Produced by a Noninvestigation of a Nonresolved Controversy over a Nundefined Threat to Nonldcntifiablc People.” Yet no one has ventured to say that screen portrayals have absolutely no Impact on people’s attitudes. Certainly, Easy Rider,” is at least partly responsible, for popularizing the motorcycle culture. And NEWSWEEK magazine recently reported that the newest rage among black youth at one Los Angeles high school is to wear their hair straightened and flowing, to sport wide-lapeled midi coats and to adorn themselves with tiny silver crosses and ‘coke spoons' around their necks—all a la Priest in Superfly.” If this is the kind of impact the new crop of movies is having on young moviegoers, then there is a legitimate claim to those who argue that these films spawn counter-productive Images and erratic behavior patterns among some segments of the population. At any rate, it cannot be denied that some positive offshoots are emerging from the black films. Besides the Increasing opportunities in previously segregated professions, 23 the came a short story by gary busha several of tho black movies are producing a whole new crop of top rated black talent such as Billy Deo Williams, Diana Ross, A1 Freeman, Jr., Ciclly Tyson, Richard Pryor and Paul Winfield. Somo of tho movie productions haw been singularly outstanding, including “Lady Sings the Blues,” “Buck and the Preacher,” and “Sounder,” all of which are reputed to be in the Academy Award category. And maybe oven psychologically some of these productions could have had an immeasurable impact in upllfitlng the outlook and identity of many blacks, even though some concession must bo accorded to tho fact that the reverse stereotypes and over dramatized Images displayed in these movies could carry its negative effects. What is hopeful is that most of the cheap exploitation sex-drug-violence genre of black films with thoir shallow characterizations, typecasting and montonous plot lines will eventually fade to give way to autliontic screen productions that depict the black reality for what it really is while at the same timo providing genuine entertainment that promotos a positive image among blacks. n W • Quiver The premise then, is no truth is absolute except by its oun definition. You may say “it's true that I have a mother or that I exis( or Australia is a continent,” but of course, these statements are terms ascribed to their physical characteristics.

But scramble the terms, remove the preconceived opinions that things exist, trick the senses and nothing is certain.

Avery nods with his thoughts, drifting, sorting through seas of statements, facts, beliefs without conclusion-conclusion without fact. Before him lies someone's manuscript smudged with his scribbled words. He reads some lines with half-closed eyes and the words wiggle away and blur. Nothing is true or false, he droops on the desk-but waiting for labels of affirmation. I'm going now, ahh, Avery? I'm leaving now. He hears a voice entering his room. Wha, where, who-ls it? Oh, it's you Aunt Gertie. I was dozing off I guess. Doing some work on this article. His eyes clear in the dim light and focus on her hanging cheeks, on her ear, out of which runs a tube that attaches to her box-type hearing aid. She wears a light blue dress just right for her full figure. It's 9:30. I'm going now for Myrtel's; it's Thursday you know. There's some left-over chicken in the refrige and pie on the cup-board-it's a real nice home-made cherry-and don't forget to put Rutherford out around ten.

The pictures, and how the camera wouldn't flash-che home-baked candies and the (rouble she had with them sticking to the pan. and how she left them in a little too long because she was on the phone-the good advice she just happened to see in the paper. It all serves her purpose. At least she believes she has a purpose, that she has something to offer. She reconciles and accepts and becomes a part of the endless routine with the confidence of what she thinks she knows. What does such a life mean? 24 ♦ • Fifty years of repetition? The same number in pretence, in happiness based on solid routine? Confined, restricted bullshit! Why should I envy the fool It is paradise?

Yeah, sure Sam. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Okay? Right, goodnight Ave. What a waste. He puts the phone down and reads over a manuscript. Sornc-whcrc so much is missing, if not missing, misplaced, out of reach.

And yet. in ihis case I wish there were clear-cut lines. Here a story fails, there it succeeds. But most fail somewhere, and those that succeed are always in question, or misunderstood or forgotten.

While he writes he breathes and twitches over the keys, he blinks and functions internally until he suspects that he’s finished.

I just wondered if everything is all right. We're having snacks now so I have this chance to call. Did you eat the chicken? The girls just loved the pictures-you know how nice they turned out. I didn't disturb you? No, not really. I was just thinking. . . And you didn't eat anything?

Don't worry, everything's fine, bye, goodbye. But did you put Ritherford out? Yes, bye. He looks for the damned cat. It's under the bed squatting.

Rutherford should be a critic, I know what he’d do with manuscripts. Avery finishes with the mess and picks up the wrinkled manuscript. How can I reject this ridiculous trash, this fabricated ambiguity? Do I dare bum it? But then I’d only be changing its form-it still exists in my mind. There’s no escape from it- He reaches to the screen and tears the web apart with the tip of his pencil. The spider runs across the base of the screen, finds a crack leading outside and disappears in the darkness. Better now than have it waste more time on repairs-slupid spider! Avery shuffles the papers together and stuffs them into a folder. As he undresses for bed he hears an insect flutter against the screen; he looks but sees nothing. He pulls back the sheets, crawls in and flicks off the lights.

This is especially true in the area of sports, where for several years tho relevancy of competition has come to tho forefront of controversy. When this controversy hits the college campus, it inevitably Is anchored In the question of whero tho funding for thoso sports programs will come from. The question, as supporters and critics soom to view It, boils down to this, “Are we here to promote an athletic atmosphere or are academics our primo concern? The answer to this question depends on which side of the stadium fence one finds himself. Those who favor a strong intercollegiate sports program do so with the blossing of an intensely sports-oriented society. To our society, a good football team is a picture of masculinity, patriotism, and themid-dlo American go-got’em” philosophy. The weekend spectacle has taken on a religious aura, certainly not unlike the holy pilgrimages of the middle centuries. Why all this attraction to football, basketball, and hockey? Tho answer 26 lies in the word winning.” Americans are an impatient people. They want tangible results. The world of ideas, in other words the world that cannot be summarized in black and white, is alien to them. Anyone will say it is futile to arguo politics since there are very few truisms and often the implications of political maneuvering are difficult todetermlne. This is not so on the football field, however. There is very little in a game of football or basketball that is difficult to understand. One only needs to look at the score board for tangible results. Here is whore the rift begins between the academic and sports-minded people in society, and for that matter, in tho college community. Although it may be an oversimplification, it is safe to say that tho college campus is a microcosm of this rift in society. On one hand is the group working behind the label of intellectuallsm. It decries the structured character of the athlete, saying it would be better for these students to exercise the mind rather than nightly exercising the body. They complain that the money being allocated for athletics could better be used for academic aspects of the uni- closer look by tom ivildermuth verslty. Besides the intellectuals there Is a sizable grouping of students that dislike athletics for a somewhat different reason. Their idoa of tho athlete is that of a straight-laced individual, ono that is not in tune with the changing life styles of young people. Tho rosult is an antithesis in life styles, with the longhalrs” acting and looking in a manner unbefitting a Jock.” It’s tho Woodstock generation standing face to face with the athletic advocators; although they live in the same vlcini’.y, their priorities are entirely different. But if the critics are ardent in their convictions, so are the sports advocates in theirs. One of theso advocates is Dan Berner, a senior, who has played four years of basketball at UW-Oshkosh. When asked why he stayed out for basketball his ontire stay at Oshkosh, Berner simply replied, I love the sport.” Berner’s strong affection for basketball stems from the fact that it keops him in condition physically and allows him to travel to different places and meet people. Tho most important reason he cited, however, were the benefits a basketball career will afford him when he graduates and is looking for a Job. A physical education major, Bernei feels that it Is an advantage for a school with a physical education program (such as Oshkosh) to have a strong intercollegiate sports program. Another four year participant in basketball, Greg Seibold, said the enjoyment of the sport kept him out for the team. Berner and Seibold agreed that college participation in a sport doesn't build a strong character in itself. Seibold said the players on the court already have developed personality traits, but that the competition helps the individual to better look at himself and discover these traits. At first glance it would appear that the situation is centered around two opposing camps, those being the advocates and critics. There is, however, a group of students on campus that fit into neither category. Their case is not always one of apathy, as two sophomores from Milwaukee exemplified as they gave their views. One student said he didn’t attend sporting events, particularly football games, because of the crowds. “Being at one of the Oshkosh football games is like trying to walk through a bar on Thursday night,” ho commented. “The games attract the same type of people.” Another student said if people couldn’t let it all hang out at football games, there would probably be more bar room brawls. Both students agreed that there was a need for college sports and that the schism between athletes and non-athletes was bolng bridged by the Intramural program. Tho point is well taken, since many long-haired (or in any event, certainly not clean cut) students take part in intramural activities. This point leads to one of the more interesting aspects of labelling the athlete. Many a high school star has gone off to college, grown a head of long hair, and felt the gaze of hometown folks at vacation time. Their favorite son lias apparently turned into a “hippie.” Or has he? Society, and certainly the college community have fallen prey to the fault of stereotyping. Hippie types and sports froaks arc all too quick to slap labels on each other. It appears that neithor camp knows or will take the time to get to know the other side. Both groups take on physical attributes to accentuate their Identity. For the UW-0 athlete, it's the wearing of a black and gold letter Jacket. To many in the campus community the letter Jacket Is a sign of snobbery, or, as one student put it, a sign of self-edification. Berner rejected this hypothesis in saying that a letter jacket is the only physical reward the athlete maintains after spending long hours in a sport. He said it was the athlete’s form of identity. Unfortunately, it seems as though the outward identity of both athletes and non-athletes determine their relationships with each other. The result is that neither side gets past the abort lve glances at the long hair and patched Jeans or the gold and black letter jackets. Borncr provided a good example of how one athlete overcame the stereotype barrier. He said he had enrolled in an acting class and found, when he walked in, that it was filled with “long-hairs.” “I felt out of place, Iwas the freak,” he said. “I could have dropped out of that class, but I didn't.” Berner said the students accepted him, and ho got to know and appreciate them. The polarization over athletics Is one of several factionalisms confronting the campus today. It is an enigmatic situation because both sides can adequately present their cases. But if the rift between advocate and critic is to be resolved, the areas of funding and stereotyping will have to be given first consideration. If present indications are a pattern for the future, the resolution appears tobcalongway Can you dig it .. . 10 taps Mon-Thurs 9-11 p.m. Free peanuts Sun. nights Fun Good times Low price drinks Friendship Get it on get it all at . . .

Whitewater beat Chicago St. Xavier and Oshkosh trimmed North Central College of Naperville, Illinois. The stage was then set for the championship game of the tournament between the two state college schools. Visiting Whitewater had handily won an oar Her conference meeting between the teams, and as the final score would show, the War hawks would prow to be rude guests as they beat the Titans for the second time. The early part of the gamo was particularly excruciating for the Titans as they went through the first 3 1 2 minutes without scoring a point. John DeYoung finally broke the ice on a short jumper, but the fate of Oshkosh was already sealed. The Titans suffered throughout the game from ragged [Kissing and poor shooting. These factors, coupled with the awesome rebounding and shooting of twin brothers, Larry and Garry Grimes, kept the Titans in check for the entire first half. At half-time Whitewater held a commanding lead, 39-16. The Titans failed to utllizo any second half resolutions on this New Year’s weekend, and suffered through a second 20 minute period that closely resembled the first. Time and time again Oshkosh came down the court to have the ball stolen or haw a shot blocked by Whitewater’s high Jumping front line. The final score of the game was Whitewater 73, Oshkosh 48. Thore were a few bright spots for the Titans, however, as Greg Seibold and Dan Berner did some good outside shooting. In Friday night’s game Seibold reached a milestone by scoring the 1000th point of his career. But the tournament belonged to Whitewater, as was evident by their domination of the all-tournament team. The War hawks selected to the team included Bob Stone, Elmer Polk, and Larry Grimes. Stone, a 6’6” center, was voted the most valuablo player.

Information obtained from following sources; “Ripley's Believe It or Not! 17th 18th series “Guinness Book of World Records 31 There’s mere tc the let’s Club than meets the EYE Almost anyone who has ever witnessed a UW-0 Homecoming parade probably remembers the comical, somewhat rowdy antics of the UW-O Veterans Club members who annually march In the parade. However, there apparently Is more to the Vets than what meets the eye, according to John Boelke, president of the UW-O Vets Club. “We’re not just a bunch of drunken brawlers; we’re Just a bunch of guys,’’ he commented. Although the primary purpose of the Vets Club Is ono of fulfilling a social need for the Vets, the club has more serious purposes, too, that fulfill more personal needs of Its members. “When you come to campus, you don't know anyone—it’s like you’ve been In isolation. But the club gives you a way to get around and meet other people and to know what's on campus. And you have to get Involved on campus,’’ Boelke said. We're not just a bunch of drunken brawlers; we're just a bunch of guys. One purpose of the Vets Club, that of giving service, was mot oarly in December cf this year. Thirty hospitalized Vietnam war veterans from the Veterans Administration facility at Wood Hospital were guests of the UW-O Vets Club for an entire weekend. The UW-O club members drove to Milwaukee and brought the disabled veterans back to Oshkosh where they toured the campus. A special showing at the UW-O planetarium was scheduled later that day, followed by supper In one of the university’s food service buildings and an evening of entertainment at Reeve Memorial Union. The disabled veterans stayed In a university residence hall that Saturday night. Sunday’s plans called for the veterans to be guests at the Vets Club annual venison dinner at Westhaven Golf Club at noon and to watch the Green Bay Packors-Dctroit Lions game on television there. According to Boelke, this has been the first service project of the Vets Club since he Joined the club in August, 1970. He said he had been looking for a servico project for two years, and when Veterans Coordinator, August Helgerson, suggested invltlngdis-abled veterans from Wood Hospital to the UW-O campus for a weekend visit, Boelke and Helgerson began organizing tho project. Was this service project a success? “It really pulled off—the guys (from Wood Hospital) really had a great time,’’ Boelke said. He went on to say that the weekend instilled a feeling of closeness, a feeling of being united by a common bond, between the members of the Vets Club, too. “That’s why this weekend was such a big success; we realized that we could have been any one of those guys,” Boelke said. He added, “the fact that I was In Viet Nam, or that another guy wasn’t, doesn’t make any difference to the guys In our club—we’ve all been In John Boelke Before the service and that's all that matters--that's enough to unite us.” In addition to the annual venison dinner, the Vets Club conducts three other major annual activities. One of these Is their annual $3.00 tour of Oshkosh at which time “the guys get dressed up In goofy clothes and hit all of the local ‘Skid Row’ bars,” according to Boelke. Another well known activity is the Vets Club annual trip-to-Florida-party. At this ovont the Vets Club gives away $300 or two round trip tickets to Florida; a live band and ten cent beers highlight this dance, and admission is only $1.00. “It’s the biggest all-campus party that’s put on during the year—and you lust can’t beat It!” Boelke said. When asked about the Vet’s Club annual march in the Homecoming parade, Boelke laughed and replied, “that’s a gas!” He then explalnod the tradition of “Gladys Greek and her court,” a regular entry in the parade competition. For those are not aware of It, Gladys Is a real live pig and her court, real live piglets; Gladys is also the Vets Clutfs sweetheart. According to Boelke, the Vets Club decorates Gladys with the colors of a different UW-O sorority each year. How did the selected sorority react to this bestowed honor this year? “The sorority—In fact, all the sororities— loved it! They never said a word against it, but thought it was great! In fact, at Homecoming planning meetings this fall they (sorority rep- John Boelke After resentatives) asked If tho Vots Club would have Gladys in the parade a-galn,” said Beolke. The 75 members of the Vets Club meet once a week in Reeve Memorial Union. They also meet once a month for a beer meeting and to play cards; this Is the Vets Club’s monthly social event. To be a member of the Vets Club a vet must have had six months of active duty In the armed services after six months of active duty; he may also have been medically discharged from the armed service at any time of his duty. A vet must also be enrolled at UW-O before he can Join the Vets Club. 1J 32 HOURS MON.-THURS. 11 a.m.-l a.m. FRI.

Shelia Soph is bored with her schoolwork; thus, she convinces her roommate that they need a change of scenery. It is love at first sight as Jon and Shelia’s eyes meet across the bar. Shyly Jon approaches Shelia, who is anxiously a-waiting his arrival. Soon an interesting philosophical conversation starts between the two. To their surprise they have the same interests in life: bowling, Rod McKuen, Johnny Mathis, and coin collecting. Jon escorts Shelia back to the dorm, where after a few lingering kisses in the lounge, he asks her for a date. Shelia, of course, says yes and they part until the next night. Jon’s brother. Larry, is also on “The Strip” this night looking for a girl. After belting down a few beers and shots of tequila, he spies his choice across the bar, a pretty coed who is loudly, drunkenly jiggling. Mary does not see Larry as he approaches because she has been watching another guy, trying to attract his attention. Larry opens the conversation with an offer to buy Mary a drink which she really does not need. Accepting the drink, Mary looks Larry over, thinking to herself that he isn’t as cute as the other guy, but he will do for the night. The conversation that develops is not very interesting, especially since Mary keeps calling Larry, “Jerry,” because in her in- ebriated state she did not understand him. Larry and Mary do find that they have the same interests in life: bars, booze and hustling. When Larry finally decides Mary is drunk enough, he asks her to come to his apartment to listen to his new stereo, a ploy he has been using for three years. Mary decides to accept his invitation because an old stereo is better than a lonely night in the dorm. Even at the apartment the two never really talk. Mary giggles a lot as Larry silently seduces her. The next morning as she walks back to the dorm, Mary wonders what Jerry’s last name is but decides it really does not matter. With the rejection of organized social functions, bar hustling is one of the few avenues left as a means for students to meet others. Years ago the Union sponsored Friday night dances in the Titan Room, but student attendance dropped every year with every new bar that opened in the campus area. Now the Union also serves beer, and it has become the main attraction of their special programs and concerts. Students have chosen the bar atmosphere over the organized form, possibly because the bar offers less restriction in manner and dress and an air of drunken conviviality. Some people may meet their “dream” person in a bar on “The Strip,” but most often their experience will be comparable to the Larry and Mary incident. Hustling, as a game, is not harmful if both people realize the outcome. However, a repetitious hustler, the one who goes to a bar night after night, needing the excitement of a new body (not a mind), emphasizes the problem of this social system, where acquaintance is primarily a sex game. Egos play an important function in the motivation of a chronic hustler. This person needs the feeling that, “gee, every night I meet and sleep with a new person. I must really be a desirable person.” The realization, the next morning, that he never got acquainted with the other, except the body, lowers the self respect, causing a new cycle of hustling to begin, thus building up the ego. What can the community do with these discontented, disoriented, supposed adults? Should we send analysts out to the bars to help straighten out their values? Should we close down all taverns because they are disaster areas to the young adults in our society? Perhaps these hustlers are just a mirror of a segment of society wherein respect and pride are slowly dying and there is no foreseeable solution. 35 i wmmmmi iiiiniiii mum by linda me early r i Living in a dorm--the thought of It seems exciting when one tilts his head skyward to the upper stratosphere of 10th floor Scott or Gruen-hagen Halls. It can warm one's heart to gaze at the cozinoss of Evans or Taylor Halls. Rosidonco halls are homes away from homos, with bomb throats or fire drills added on winter evenings to keep the occupants on their toes. They are the seed beds of lasting friendships, sheepshead marathons, disinfectant bathrooms, ice-locked windows, and floor parties. Dormitory living is also dally frustration. Try to study with a stereo blaring next door, or look for a place to be completely alone, wait for elevators and stand in line for every meal. Ono thing is certain: the dorms are slowly evolving from an atmosphere of stringent controls to one with a more humanized atmosphere. In the lOGfl student handbook it was stated that lights were to be out in the rooms by 11:30 on weekdays and by 1:00 a.m. on weekends. Special permission for late study had to be obtained from the matron in charge. In the early slxties--the ora of Kennedy, Route 66 and bobble socks--Oshkosh was sheltering a total of 564 students on campus. Women resided in the Pollack House and in Radford and Webster Halls. Clemans Hall had Just been completed for the men. Reverend Ed, as he so calls himself, is 30 years old and a grad student in History . In 1961 ho was a freshman living in Clemans Hall. He was asked what he remembered most vividly about the dorms. “The best thing I remember was three weeks confinement,” he replied. He went on to explain that if a student got a total of 20 demerits over a certain length of time, he was required to spend a week in the dorm between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. each day. The tall, bearded gentleman also gave his view on dorm life now; “I can’t begin to stress how much I dig them. They have a liberalism they always should have had,” he said. Today 11 residence halls dot the campus, as ovidenco of the college boom a few years back. Entire floors in the high risos have been closed because of the scarcity of roomers who once had to apply the proceeding February to be guaranteed a place to stay when the fall torm rolled around. Now these ompty floors are used as Inexpensive weekend rooms for visitors. The visitation policy, as few as five years ago, was nothing more than a caller who came to pick up his dato at the main desk. Now the couple can enjoy 22 hour freedom. Such is the case of Breese Hall. Reopened two years ago after a surge in enrollment, the co-ed dorm now houses upperclassmen. The building was given a paint Job--not a fresh coat of beige, but purples, blues, oranges and greens. Tangerine bean bag chairs and plaid sofas furnish the study lounges. Dan Tossar, a Junior majoring in Spanish, lived in Scott Hall during his first two years in school. He said. “Compared to Scott, it (Breese Hall) is a lot cleaner. Students take on a bigger role of responsibility; they have more consideration for others and it makes it a lot quieter. It's smaller and more knit together.” Mike Kirby, an RA there, agreed. “You’re more orientated to the university community. The spirit is a lot closer. . . a spirit that is really cool. It's not a zoo, but a relaxed atmosphere. As an R A you don’t have the hassle of the RA’s as in the other dorms. About all you do is write work orders. It's the best place to be an RA.” But what about visitation in the other dorms? Students were asked if they felt their visitation hours were adequate. The women’s wing of Taylor PANT WORKS 459 N. Main St. r 36 r Registration--one of those unforgettable college experiences? Hall presently has a five hour policy on weekdays (7p.m.-12:30 a.m.) and a 14 hour policy on weekends (12 p.m.-2 a.m.). Other women’s halls generally have the same hours. Sandy Abel, a sophomore from Taylor Hall remarked, “I think it (visitation) should bo lengthened because the 22 hour visitation policy at Dreese has not been abused. Just as some people didn’t want phones in the rooms, why can't we have one dorm with a short visitation policy?” Tracy Gill, a soph-pmore from Delafield and a resident of Scott Hall said, “Visitation should be abolished. If girls can’t take care of themselves, they shouldn’t be in college.” Sharon Ullom, also a sophomore in Scott Hall,disagrced. “It protects some kids. Personally I don’t think the 22 hour visitation is necessary. I wouldn’t want guys running around all day.” Are dormitories a fact of university life that should act as an educational experience, or were they built merely as a convenience for students not living within a college’s proximity? Gruenhagen is planning a change this semester, as are the other dorms on campus. Too long, some feel, has Oshkosh beon noted for its beer culture. Educational programs such speaker series, rummage sales, ping pong and chess tournaments have been planned by Gruenhagen. One RA there remarked, “We want to give the students an alternative to“TheStrlp”.... we want to make this more than a place to lay their heads.” Reactions were mixed when interviewees were asked about what they felt they were getting out of the residence halls for themselves. Char Gauger, a freshman from Sturgeon Bay said, “I think the dorm makes you grow up. You learn to make decisions for yourself.” JeffMossoff, assistant director of housing, agreed that “it’s helping education. We support tlie goal that students are here for.” Surprisingly, two resident as- sistants living in the high rises disagreed. Both asked not to bo identified, and gave a candid view of what dormitory life should be, but isn’t. “They don’t help people grow up. Ideally, they should foster a person’s maturity. . . .that’s a lot of bull.” one said. The other added, “The typical freshman does loarn something in the dorm--how to hold his liquor and smoke a joint. He has walked away from here with nothing more than memories of a few good times.” After the required two years of on-campus housing, most students relish the thought of being able, to find apartments. Some oven manago to got off campus bofore their Junior year. One Sophomore co-ed living with another girl in a four room apartment near HalsoyScience Center said, “I have more discipline here tecause I was so easily distracted in the dorm. Kids would come in and I'd drop whatever I was doing, smoke a cigarette, and talk.” Bob Peters is a Junior living a few houses down on the same block. He and eight other friends, all who lived in Nelson Hall last year, now share an entire house. He wished he were back in the dorms. “Ihave to go to the library if I want to get any studying done. There’s nothing here It’s about time the dorm policies on their room walls—and ceilings! allowed students to put things 37 to keep the noise down, and It was really nice having all the meals laid out for you,” he said. With the enrollment drop that plagued campuses all over the state this year, the pinch was felt Just as seriously in the housing office. Because 400 to 500 students did not enroll and live in dorms at UW-0 this year, as expected, a total of $223,000 was lost in housing revenue. Jeff Moss off, assistant housing director, said that it will in no way affect the spring semester room rent. Moss off said that living in a dorm Is almost as economic as off-campus housing. At the present time, room and board (for a private room with phone and 20 meal plan) totals $585 per semester. Mossoff said that if a student was living off campus and spending $10 per week on food, which he felt was a conservative estimate,” on-cam-pus housing would cost only $30 more each semester. Mossoff said that the dormitory style buildings per say will no longer be built on campus. Hall living will change Just as living habits have changed. If a fair number of students would be willing to live in a “suito” type of room, where three to four people would share a two-room area, dorm life would take on a new porspoctlvo. The housing offlco is also looking into the idea of a trailer park or apartment style housing to replace the present structure of dorms. Mossoff also said that someday students may be able to choose whether they would like to live in dorms or not. Dormitories are looked at by some as, what one student remarked, “nothing more than a student ghetto.” Residents are almost assured of coming in contact with a majority of others with the same socio-economic backgrounds, which leads to a limited quantity of totally new learning experiences. Be that as it may, the dorms do leave some type of impression on the students. For some it Is regarded as nothing more than a two year stint in an Army barracks; others see it as one of the fondest memories of their college years. Dormitory life is a world of posters and bolsters. . . .snow ball fights and touch football games. One student summed itupbest, to make the best a Only a Burt Reynolds centerfold could draw this much attention from these dorm residents. 38 Breese Hall BREESE HALL--Front row (left to right): Seeley Trommel, Archie, Stew McEnroe, Dawn McCarthy, Ann Rolsner, Ginny Larson, Chori Royca, Bob Westlund.

Cover by Mike Sajbel 1 A Letter from the Editor The student health center Is something that most students have found necessary to depend upon. Are the doctors and nurses doing their Job? Do we get our money’s worth? What actual services do they offer? These and many other Important questions are raised In “Everything you always wanted to know about the Health Center...’’ by Kay Bloechl. Deb Luebke has raised a very pertinent question for the Pro-Con column-“Should final exam week be abolished?” Barb Ernst brings us news about a Flea Market sponsored by the Alumni Service for a very worthy cause--US! Bob Lowe has a few choice words for Ann Landers. “How to relieve ennui in Oshkosh,’’ by Tom Wlldermuth, has some suggestions written tongue-in-cheek. MlkeSajbel has composed a mood setting photo story complete with poem. A short story written by Doug Zarllng Is featured this month. It’s so good that once you start reading, you won’t be able to put it down. He’s a talented young author. Ellen Waite has examined the services that the Placement Center has to offer, and gives us a look through the student’s eye. Did you know that Oshkosh has a major that is offered in only 15 schools In the country? The people that enroll in Music Therapy are truly giftod people. They’re talented both musically and In helping people. More on page 19. Want to know what’s going on? Check our calendar of events. It tells all that’s happening during the month--the Gamma Sigma Sigma Diaper Derby and “In Cold Blood” playing In the Little Theatre--to name a few. Also, If you’d like a few laughs check “Myriads of Time” by Tim Bauer. Ellen Waite makes some valid comments about a best selling book in her column, “Wit’s End.” Don Schlutz has written an unbelievable story about a car race that took place way back in 1878.

But how many students on campus are fully aware of how the health center operates and take advantage of Its many available services? According to Dr. Lyons, approximately 2C0 students use the health center’s facilities each day; perhaps 75 of those students have colds and other respiratory ailments, the leading most common type of illness treated by the doctors and nurses. With the fantastic rise of venereal disease (VD) in recent years, one might expect it to be the plague most often treated at the health center. However, Dr. Lyons Is happy to report that Incidents of gonorrhea haw decreased by one-half since its record peak last year. “We are pretty much stopping it on a one-to-one basis now before it spreads,” he said. Follow-ups on VD cases are also done at the health center; doctors check for at least two negative VD tests after cure to make certain that there Ls no regression of the disease. Dr. Lyons added, “The students are very cooperative in the follow-ups-partlybecause there is no cost Involved in the procedure.” It seems as though a phenomenal number of antibiotics and penicillin pills are dispensed at the health center for the treatment of colds and respiratory ailments. One wonders if the doctors worry about building up immunities to these drugs. According to Dr. Lyons, the health center’s doctors dispense antibiotics or any other medicine that they feel are necessary to treat any acute injury or illness. He explained that the doctors dispense proscription drugs “to make suro students get what they need, as chances are that about 40% of the students would not take their prescription to be filled if they had to pay for it.” The health center, however, does not dispense vitamin pills, birth control pills, narcotics (such as codeine), or other similar drugs, but the doctors can pr esc rile them for students if necessary. Dr. Lyons went on to say, “We (doctors) don’t worry as much about students developing immunities to prescribed drugs as we do about a student’s sensitivity to certain drugs.” There are so many newer and stronger antibiotics now available for serious illnesses that immunity is no longer a major concern, he said. Generally, drugs are not dispensed haphazardly at the health center, according to Dr. Lyons, and he feels that “students do not come in with too many minor complaints-they arc usually Justifiable.” He added that the doctors see many serious and critical conditions at the health center every year. An average work-week for a doctor at the health center is 75 hours; this includes about 32 hours of emergency duty which ls rotated among the doctors. Dr. Lyons said that the doctors do not profit from their emergency duty, but are paid on a straight salary. Any charges to students for emergency care, such as a visit to the Mercy Medical Center emergency ward, goes intothe student health fund. Incidentally, If a student does find himself in the hospital's emergency ward, he will have to wait for a health center doctor to come to his aid. This may be loss expensive for the student, but, at the same time, rather unfortunate for him if lie is in need of immediate emergency care. Dr. Lyons explalneo that local physicians have boggod off from seeing students-even in an emor-gency-because they are too busy with their own patients. I.ocal doctors will not take students as patients without the request of a health center doctor, he added. The services and facilities at the health center arc expanding. Dr. Lyons said. More treatment of psychiatric problems is being done by one fully certified psychiatrist. Dr. McAndrew, and three resident psychiatrists who are putting in more time per week than in the past. “Some short-time psychotherapy can now be carried on,” Dr. Lyons commented. Lab facilities have also expanded (with no cost to students) with the addition of another $1000 Incubator. Hopefully, the x-ray-machine will soon be running, also with no extra cost to students, sothat somo chest films can be done at the health center, he said. Cfccn abortion referral will now be possible at the health center, too, since the Supreme Court recontly abolished all federal abortion laws. However, Dr. Lyons does not foresee the health centor doing abortions in the near future because the facilities there will not permit it. Also, he noted that the Board of Regents prohibits health center doctors from performing surgery. “I question whether any health center in the U.S. will be doing abortions,” he added. One shortcoming of the health center is that theydonotgivchealthphysicals to prospective student teachers; Dr. Lyons said this is because of a lack of time and personnel at the health center. However, athletic physicals are given every year at the health center “for courses that give credit at the university or for university sponsored activities,” he said. There is no charge to students for athletic physicals, and these physicals are done during hours when the health clinic isn’t open. Dr. Lyons said that the health center also hopes to give 3 r « HEALTH CENTER STAFF-Front row (loft to right): Mrs. Peggy Pauli, Dr. R.J. Greischar, Dr. S.L.

Standing in back (left to right): Mrs. Glnny Bruch, Mrs. Pat Mathers, Mrs. Judy Mcidl; secretary, Mrs. Betty Toland. all of the ROTC physicals beginning in September, 1973, with no cost to the student. He explained that the Army would give $800-900, the total cost for these physicals, to the health center. This additional annual income will go Into the student health fund, according to Dr. Lyons, and the ROTC members will be saved the inconvenience of a trip to Chicago or Milwaukee where the physicals were formerly given. UW-0 students are the only people who can use the health center’s services; this excludes university professors and spouses of college students. Dr. Lyons emphasized, though, that the health center will give emergency first aid (not treatment) to anyone, and that they will Immunize any professor who is going on a foreign trip if the teacher himself first acquires the immunization. The health center has a policy concerning blood tests for marriage licenses, too. For out-of-state marriages, the health center will draw the blood samples, do the necessary paperwork Involved and then send the blood to the State lab in Madison where procedures are completed. The health center can not draw blood samples for those people who are planning to be married within the state of Wisconsin, however; this must be done at a private lab. The 4 health center will do the necessary paperwork involved for ln-state marriages, though, and will then give It to the couple to take to their respective Clerk of Courts. Many students have probably wondered about the confidentiality of their health records and about what happens to them after they graduate. According to Dr. Lyons, all students’ health records are the property of the Student Health Service and the contents will not be revealed to anyone except by written consent of the aatlent. All records are destroyed seven years after the student leaves the university. However, students may request to have their records when they leave tlie university. Each student is treated as an adult and medical reports, except those required by law in the state of Wisconsin, are not sent to parents or others without written consent, Dr. Lyons said.

War, poverty, racism, pollution, and man’s general inhumanity to man can become terribly depressing and weigh down a person's spirits. However, once In awhUe you hear about something good, something hopeful. The UW-O Speech and Hearing Clinic is one of those things that makes you start believing in people again and what people can do when they choose to get involved. When the Speech and Hearing Clinic was first begun in 1967, it was located at Gun’s House where facilities were far from adequate. A renovated dining room was used for a therapy room, and the audiology lab was nearly without heat. Tho construction of the new Fine Arts building provided a wing for the Speech and Hearing Clinic which now includes eight therapy rooms, three group therapy rooms, two observation rooms, a fully modern audiology lab, and a clinician’s room. The clinic now provides a significant service for tho Fox Valley area. Most of the clients are referred to the clinic by area doctors, parents, or nursery school teachers. Many preschool children who are unable to listen carefully or speak clearly come to the clinic for help before starting school. Success In a school environment Is much more probable for children whose communicative skills are well-developed. The clinic also helps adults who may have S|«ech and or hearing problems duo to strokes or car accidents. Some clients who have had their larynxes removed because of cancer learn to talk at the clinic. Their families also receive counseling and help In adjusting to the new speech methods. Many university students also take advantage of the clinic’s diverse services. When clients come to the clinic, their particular skills are carefully evaluated In order to discover what problems exist. After assessment, teacher-learning objectives are set up and carried out In therapy sessions. Depending upon the age and skill level of the client, various teaching methods are used. Parental counseling is also an important part of the therapy program, in that parents are taught how to help their child at home to enhance progress. Student clinicians actively participate in the Speech and Hearing Clinic. Along with their course load, clinicians are assigned to clients with whom they work throughout the semester. Tho students, while under supervision, are responsible for assessment and therapy for their clients. The Speech and Hearing Clinic serves an important function for the university and tho community. It works as a teaching, learning, and helping agency for people of all ages and backgrounds. The clinic performs quietly with little publicity. It just attempts to make life a little easier and a little hotter for a lot of people. H . Above; Sue Wilder, a senior from La Crosse works with Ed Sullivan, age 5.

Her witty comments and common sense logic arc the delights of millions. And she seems convinced in the righteousness of her own cause. Dear Ann Landers: Please tell me what is life? Thank you. Since her column first appeared on October 16, 1955, Ann Landers has become a virtual North American institution. She is idolized by millions, constantly on demand as a speaker and is considered to be--for good or evil--one of the most influential personalities on the American scene. Together with her twin sister, Abigail Van Buren, they are regarded as the leading “Sister Confessors” in the lovelorn columnist business, surpassing the popularity of Dorothy Dix and Mary Haworth in tholr prime. Ann Landers' column is syndicated in over 700 newspapers and reaches a dally audioncc estimated at 60 million in both the United States and abroad. She receives over 1,000 letters per day. Despite the remarkable popularity that she has managed to attain, most readers arc unfamiliar with the person behind the image. Born to Jewish parents in Sioux City, Iowa, the 55-year-old columnist attended Morningside College where slto majored in journalism and psychology (she did not graduate). Her real name is Esther Pauline lx derer. She lias been married to Jules Le-derer, a Chicago business executive, for over 33 years. They have one daughter, Margo, who is also married. Prior to becoming a columnist, Ann Landers was a housewife for 16 years. She was selected for the Job by the CHICAGOSUN-TLMESfrom a field of 29 competitors, even though she had no degree or journalistic experience. Her way with words, and wry sense of humor impressed 8 Ann Landers: Iff sire can1 do iff, Abby can. by bob lou e the Sun-Times editors and she quickly went on to establish herself as the Mother Superior of lovelorn columnists. By her own account, she answers problems dealing with every aspect of dally living. In her best-selling book, SINCE YOU ASK ME, she comments: “The people who write range from six years of age to ninety-six. They live on suburban estates and they live in city slams. . . I’ve received letters from bank presidents, truck drivers, doctors, waitresses, coal miners, school teachers, factory workers, lawyers, artists, nuclear scientists, prostitutes, teenagers and clergymen.” One reader addressed the following question to her: Dear Ann Landers: Please tell me what is llfo? Thank you. One of the distinguishing features of the Landers operation is her reliance on professional advice from an impressive list of knowledgeable consultants in such fields as medicine, law, politics, religion, and psychology. This has set her apart from erther fly-by-night quacks who usually strive to conjure up cute sounding answers to vital questions. It is significant to point out that all the letters that appear in her column She has been accused of trying to play God and of being a 'paper therapist.' are genuine and are answered by her personally. This differs from columnists such as Dr. Joyce Brothers who supplies answers to ghostwritten questions researched by her staff. Yet despite tier unquestionable popularity and sincerity, Ann Landers has come under fire from several quarters. She has been accused of trying to play God and of being a “paper tneraplst.” Some critics label her advice as “simplistic” and “lacking in depth,” and Playboy magazine calls her “piously platitudinous.” One letter writer has gone as far as labeling her “the groat fountainhead of reactionary sex ideology.” What is the basis for these criticisms? Possibly one of the most frequent and justified charges leveled against Ann Landers is her tendency to arrive at snap judgements aft or hearing only one side of the story. Ernest Dean, a former psychology instructor from Canal Zone College asserts: “How she can put together 40 words and arrive at a judgement after hearing only one side of the issue is beyond me.” Quite often her pat replies are superficial, onesided, and totally lacking in substance. Her reactionary views on sex and morality also attract widespread controversy. In these enlightened times she continues to preach with righteous indignation against premarital sex, going steady, drinking, smoking, potting, interfaith marriages, abortion, pot, and “pushy” girls. Patrick McGrady, Jr., in his recently released book LOVE DOCTORS, was somewhat critical of advice columnists including Ann lenders. In a recent appearance on the Phil Donahue show he claimed that much of the moral advice handed down to people by these columnists is tinged with “a certain Puritan ethic.” McGrady went on to describe a conversation he had with Abigail Van Buren, in which he asked her how in these progressive times site can continue to proclaim a blanket Indictment against premarital sex, given its widespread prevalence. Abby replied that if someone had to write her to ask whether or not they should engage in premarital sex they are People like Ann Landers may be responsible for causing many of the neurotic hangups that exist in the U.S. and elsewhere because people have a tendency to take her serious- I u •• Immature and should not. This Is the kind of hypocritical • morality that these columnists promote. While they might think that this kind at double-faced morality is necessary to protect their own reputation and to assuage the moral conscience at the nation, they cause positive harm to generations of people by instilling in their minds that what they are doing—however pleasurable, satisfying or agreeable in their own particular circumstances--is wrong and should be condemned. This causes an irreparable amount of needless guilt and frustration a-mong countless numbers of people. People like Ann Landers may be responsible for causing many of the neurotic hang-ups that exist in the United States and elsewhere because people have a tendency to take her seriously. One of the most pernicious moral recommendations that Ann Landers uncompromisingly gives out is to suggest that unmarried pregnant girls give up their babies for adoption. This suggestion is no doubt a hangover from the Puritan concept that sinners should suffer for their alleged sins. While the adoption agencies when this -is counterbalanced by tho harm she may be causing, it is doubtful that one can view her influence in a positive light. 1000 Oregon St. 231-9717 Oshkosh, Wis. Saddlery Riding Apparel . . . Playboy magazine calls her 'piously platitudinous.' may be grateful for the increased business, this kind of solution to unwanted pregnancies is vicious, cruel and totally reprehensible, as it fails to consider extenuating circumstances that could make significant differences in individual cases. Again Ann Landers can be said to be guilty of fostering an entire generation of abandoned children in an effort to promote her anachronistic moral philosophy. How she, a mother herself, can continue to ask girls tobear a pregnancy for nine months, go through the ordeal of delivery, and give up a child without seeing it is beyond comprehension. Another one of Ann Landers’ pat recommendations is to take nearly all problems to a psychiatrist. Besides being terribly expensive, impractical, and tinged with undo-slrcable social and economic consequences, this recommendation is not always sound since, as McGrady asserts, “there aren't that many good psychiatrists going around.” Yet Ann Landers continues to foist her propagandist ic advice column on the nation, secure in the knowledge that she is so venerated by the mass public that her place in posterity is assured. How long she will continue to exert her influence on gullible minds is anybody’s guess. Surely, many will argue, she has done a tremendous amount of good and performs a useful social servlco—maybe so.

Father lost his big stake, everything except the dirty handkerchief the coins were wrapped In and the shopping bag. “Go back home, Stanislaus. Go back to your fat cheeky mother, and have her stuff your Jowls with homemade rye bread. Can’t you see there's nothing here but cousin Rudolph? 1 shout It In father’s ear, but he pays no attention. He makes his way through the crowd like there is some point to all this. “Alright, Stanislaus, you asked for it. No more Polish lullabies. No more rye bread. Stay here and suffer.” Here I am screaming such good advice to father and he Just stands there and smiles. “Why father, look at the others. They aren’t smiling. They look a little dazed--like they have been hit on the head with a sledge hammer and don’t know where they are. Miserable wretches. Why don’t theyallgo back to their stupid farms, and leave America alone. Poor little fl lambs--no, not really--they are too dark and sinister looking, more like black goats who deserve to be sheared and butchered. I have to 10 t f • pity for these people whose thick tongues could never utter English sounds. Finally, I line them up In Yankee Stadium and force them to recite the Pledge of Allegiance. Some of them start to sweat and shrug their shoulders. They plead to mo with those dumb eyes and groan so pitifully. Their mothers and grandmothers sit in the grandstand mumbling through their rosary beads. One mother cries, “Wool mittens for the Kaiser: That is my cue to bring out the tanks and mow them down. Wilson's doughboys stand at the exits with bayonets fixed. Nobody excapes. The whole battle is filmed and shown as a newsreel during the intermission of a Shirley Temple movie. “Slovak Invasion Halted by Alert American, one of the captions read. “Atllla's Huns are Quieted Forever” roads another. The whole theater house is on its feet applauding and everybody is crying “liberty cabbages. The audience boos loudly, though, when they see me let father escape through the back exit. The final caption reads One Slovak Still On The Loose. And so father wanders the streets looking for giant carbuncles in the iewer. He thinks America is made out of gold and all he has to do is take his trusty ice pick and chip away until his boots are filled with gold dust. Already he feels that everyone in a black suit is a doctor or a bank president. He wants to shake their lands and say a few words to them, but he doesn’t know •vliat to say. Okay, Stanislaus, dear father. I’ll tell them for you. “Look,lookevery-body! See here, my father, how eager he is. Note that Horatio Alger look in his eyes. Oh, of course, I know he lacks the strong chin, and. . . .or, oh, yos his features are a bit irregular. Why certainly, he’s no pedigreed Anglo Saxon, but he’ll work hard, and he’s loyal, too. He fought in both of the Balkan Wars and almost lost a log. So there! Give him a break; find a place for him. Wear a black suit and act dignified, and he’ll drool all over you. Go ahead and take him. I’m his own dear son. I know what he wants; although I’ve triedtotellhim.” The sweat shop man turns out to be my highest bidder so father goes with him. I get off the auction blockand cry because I’ve Just sold my father. Father is in a small dumpy looking office. There is a moose head mounted on the wall with its antlers half cut off, and one of its eyes missing. A grey and orange spltoon that looks like a giant Easter egg is on top of the desk. The man behind it wears a monocle and smiles just like Father Flanigan. “Please, mister Father Flanigan, keep an eye on my fathor. He's totally disreputable. He won’t go to night school; he refuses to shave the hairy unAmerlcan face of his; and, of course, he’ll never become a useful citizen - or even a plumber. He just wants to get rich and go back to the old country. Already his children are popping off their coffin lids and screaming Lower the tariff: or “Unionize, unionize! Did you ever hear of such rubbage -oh, he's bad, alright. Bettor watch him close, or Mussolini’s birthday will be a national holiday, and every grade school kid with a foreign sounding name will have grenades hidden in his pencil pouch. Father shivers in line with the rest of the men as they watt for the lumber yard gates to open. Father spends twelve hours a day lifting logs and chuckling “gold mine, gold mine to himself. “Oh, yes, father, you’ve got it right. See your son and daughter floating down the river on golden logs singing Papa was a goldminer in America. But they're drowning, Stanislaus, all of thorn are drowning. They’ro slipping off the golden logs. Damn slippery golden logs! Their little pink hands are thrashing the muddy waters. Can’t you hear them crying, doesn’t that mean anything to you? Father turns his head and sighs “What’s better than security, and a man waking up each morning knowing exactly what ho will do today. The fortune will come, Just wait and see: Fine security, you foolish man, I tell him, “see where you are, Stanislaus - still in the same place. One log looks the same as the other. You’re in the middle - in the middle of nothing. An infinity of logs, and days spent lifting them would never make you rich. Why don’t you go back to your stupid church and worship the icons. Remember the beautiful pictures, Stanislaus - Our Lady of Prague, smiling and bleeding at the same time and ... Why that’s Just like you, isn’t it - smiling and bleeding ... Father waves his hands for quiet. Someone is knocking at the door. It is the little man again. “Well, Stanislaus, is it today? Have you made your fortune yet? “No, not today, father mumblos, and tries to close tho door. The little man porslsts. Well, if not today ... then surely, it will be tomorrow ... er... your fortune will come ... “Yes, yes, tomorrow, como back tomorrow! father says hurriedly and slams the door. The little man is such a post. He comes every day to chock up - to see if it is really true - that a fortune can be mado lifting logs. No one else believes father except for the little man. Father is in a pawnshop, haggling with tho Jew about the price of a black suit coat. “Feel here the fabric, see how fine the stitchings are ... yes, yes, it is a fine coat and will keep you warm, too. Father draws a deep breath. How much? he asks The Jew runs for a pencil and starts figuring. It is worth much more, but for you, we make a special deal. Father Just stares straight ahead and thinks how long he has waited to buy such a wonderful coat, and, certainly, it will be something to show the little man when he comos again. Finally, father nods his approval at the price, and the Jew’s teeth click away like gold coins while his mouth opens up like a cash register. Father lays tho coins on the Jew’s tongue. It is just like first communion for both of them. Tho little man comes the same day. Is it today, Stanislaus? “Almost, almost, look at the black suit - note the fine black suit, father replies proudly. 'Ah, funeral clothes. You have enough of those already. Why I can tell from here that the material is shoddy. Surely, that can’t be your fortune? Did the Jew click his tooth when he sold it to you? Ah, that explains it! Well, if it is not today, surely it will be tomorrow. I’ll como back tomorrow. Father screams till the veins almost pop in his head. He lunges at the little man’s throat. Too late. The little man is already running down the stairs and so ... nothing can be done' H Truth Wit I’ve drunk to your health at parties I’ve drunk to your health at home I’ve drunk to your health so damn many times, I’ve almost ruined my own.

You remember what it was like to be eight years old. It seemed like you were never tired and you could play forever. When you're eight years old, the whole world is yours. Now imagine what life is like for a little boy growing up without a father--growing up without the male dominance, guidance and companionship that only a father can provide. Little boys need a father's attention, a fishing partner on cool Saturday mornings or Just someone to go to the ball park with. They need a father to be in the stands on the day they pitch in their first little league game. A little boy needs a father to go to when he has a problem that he feels is Insurmountable. He needs those things and many more to grow up in a normal and healthy environment; a little boy needs a father. In case you’re wondering, there really is a boy named Timmy and he really is only eight years old. Ho has blonde hair and blue eyes, lie is at that age where everything he learns is something new, and he is full of questions. For Timmy, all of his growing up and living will have to be without his father. Timmy’s father died three years ago, leaving only a small insurance policy and a lot of bills. Because of this, Timmy’s mother had to take on two Jobs, one full-time in a factory, and another as a waitress in a small diner. Timmy’s mother never goes fishing on a cool Saturday morning, and she doesn’t like baseball, either. She can’t answer all of the probing questions to the satisfaction of Timmy, or provide the kind of male dominance that Timmy needs. Luckily, though, for Timmy and thousands of little boys like him, there is an organization that fatherless boys can turn to for help. Big Brothers of Winnebago County is the type of organization that has helped thousands of fatherless boys live a normal life. Big Brothers of Winnebago County-started in 1968 with three pilot matches of fatherless boys and Big Brothers, and a part-time Executive Director. They have grown to over 120 matches in Winnebago County. According to Big Brothers their purpose is “to offer fatherless boys, on a one-to-one basis, the opportunity for normal growth and development through the friendship with a particular man who shares his interests.” Simply stated, the Big Brother is “any mature and responsible man, married or single who is interested in spending at least three to five hours per week with a growing, young boy.” Bill Ney, public relations director for the program, said, A Big Brother is an adult male who can handle a one-to-one type of relationship with a fatherless boy.” According to the program, “a Little Brother” is a boy, age seven to 17, who is fatherless and in need of friendship, guidance, trust and advice that a Big Brother can provide. He may be in trouble with the law, isolated in an institution, or he may be a well-adjusted boy. Whatever the case, the one common bond that all Little Brothers share is that they are in need of male companionship. Prospective Little Brothers arc referred to the Big Brother program through social agencies, mothers, relatives, friends, and through schools or courts. After this referral, the boy has a complete case study done on him by a professional social worker. To become a Big Brother, one must obtain an application at the Big Brothers office in the YMCA building in Oshkosh. The application is actually an involved synopsis of the man’s life including background information and references. After the application is submitted, the prospective Big Brother is called in for an interview with the executive director. At this time a further in-depth study is made and then submitted to a screening committee, made up of professional social workers. They ultimately decide if an applicant is accepted or not. If he is accepted he is then matched up with a suitable boy who the screening committee feels he will be most compatible with. The Big Brother applicant can also do some screening of his own concerning the type of Little Brother he may want. An applicant may request the age, race, intelligence level and types of problems of a boy he wishes to be matched up with. “When we match up a Big Brother and a Little Brother, we first look for things that match up on paper,” Ney said. Whatever a Big Brother and Little Brother do together is up to them; there is no specific structure they must follow. They interact in any way that will build up a relationship that will last a lifetime. Officially, the match is terminated when the boy reaches the age of 18, but as Ney said, most ’ontlnue on forever. The Big Brother organization started over 65 years ago in the eastern United States. It has spread over the entire U.S., and now lias over 200 chapters. Most people who work in Big Brothers are working on a volunteer oasis. Money is needed to pay for the executive director, the professional help, and office space. Funding for the program comes from various sources. In Oshkosh, money comes from the United Fund and the Community Chest. If anyone is interested in becoming a Big Brother he may pick up an application at the Big Brothers office which is located in the YMCA building, 324 Washington Ave., or call231-2442. 15 by ellen wane Richard Turzenskl, director of the Placement Office, feels that most students attend the University to become more effective citizens, which In my opinion means getting a Job. Dealing with 300 students a day, Turzenskl and his staff help students and alumni find Jobs. The Placement Office Is not just a service for seniors, Turzenskl stresses; it also has listings of local part-time and summer jobs and a growing library to help students find their place in the Job market. The staff tries to see the students as they come Into the office, because they feel that students' problems are imminent and need to be dealt with Immediately. However, with the volume of students, which has Increased 50% after the mow to the new quarters, using the service, appointments are necessary In some cases. The Placement Office is not as Ineffective In helping seniors find jobs as some students seem to believe. In 1972, 85% of the students In Nursing, 75% of the students in Business, 65% of the students In Education and 50% of the students In Letters and Science found jobs. According to Turzenskl, these figures are 75% accurate because it is often hard to contact students after they have graduated. Some students also find Jobs and do not let the office know of their whereabouts. Also to be taken Into consideration In these figures Is the fact that some students choose not to work after they haw completed their studios; many travel or attend graduate school. Turzenskl feels that the low percentage of liberal arts majors finding Jobs corresponds with the fact that many of these students fail to make a relationship between their discipline and the world of work. These students should pick up some sellable credits such as computer science, economics, accounting or management to glw themselves a better chance of entering the business world. Students who place geographical limitations on themsclws also haw less chance of getting a Job. The Placement Office keeps Its records forewr, according to Turzenskl. Letters and Science students and business students fill out a one-page resume. Education students also fill out a resume and haw faculty recommendations In their records. Grade transcripts are not 16 e • e • inclucJod In these records; the Records Office handles them. Alumni may always use these records when they are seeking employment. Soliciting employers is a major problem Turzcnski and his assistant, Roger Wcstphal, face. Numerous letters are sent, national and regional conventions are attended, and special programs are held to get interviewers on campus. This year approximately 250 employers are sending inter-vlewors to this campus. Students sign up for interviews at the office, but many times not all students may see the interviewer. These students are put on stand-by. Tho Placement Office will show the credentials of the students who do not haw an interview to the employer. It Is also advised that these students write directly to the Interviewing employer. Employers in the Oshkosh area call the Placement Office if they have openings for students. These openings are posted both on the bulletin boards and in the part-time job book. Turzcnski is working directly with the local telephone company to record thoso openings on tape, so that a student need only call a number to find out the job listings. In late summer, the Placement Office sends out letters to every imaginable employer in the Oshkosh area, asking them to list job openings with them. During the school year, a work study student is constantly calling employers, using the yellow pages of the telephone book, to find out if they haw any openings. According to Turzenskl, more and more students need part-time jobs, but there arc not onough jobs to go around. Numerous summer job directories are found in the reference library at the Placement Office to help students find summer employment. A few camps come to campus to interview prospectiw workers, while some send letters that are posted telling of the summer jobs available. Turzenskl does not feel that the stall, which has only two professionals, is adequate, yet their budget was cut this year. The financial squeeze is especially going to affect the amount they can spend on postage and telephone calls. Last year the Placement Office mailed out approximately 10,000 pieces of first-class mall. This mail included resumes, credentials and letters to employers, which is a basic service the office supplies. The demands for the Placement Office are increasing every year with the tight job market; “Students need these services,” said Turzenskl. He feels that getting the job is a culminating activity which a student learns from using the various resources the office provides. H Roger Westphal, assistant director of the Placement Office, answers this job seeker's questions. 17 Gentlemen... start qour engines! by don schultz Over rocky, rutted roads sped the two 1878 model cars. In perhaps the first automobile race ever held, the “Oshkosh” and “Green Bay,” steam powered cars, competed for a purse of $10,000. The Wisconsin legislature of 1875, according to the publication, “Wisconsin Highways,” offered a reward of $10,000 for the Invention of a self-propelled vehicle which would run successfully over 200 miles of public highway. The legislators appointed three commissioners to supervise the contest. The commissioners established the course of the race to be from Green Bay to Madison, via Appleton, Oshkosh, Waupun, Water-town, Fort Atkinson, and Janesville, a distance of 201 miles. The commissioners were required to ride with the contestants. Several thousand spectators witnessed the beginning of tho race In Green Bay at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, July 16, 1878. Tho starting gun was fired and off rumbled the “Oshkosh.” But where was the “Greon Bay?” Shortly after the. start of the race, the “Green Bay,” built by E.P. Cowles, was accused of cheating, because It was shipped by rail to Oshkosh. Officials cleared up this difficulty, and the race continued with the “Green Bay” far in the lead. In addition to this advantage, the “Green Bay” was the faster car, having three forward speeds and one In reverse. The “Oshkosh” had only one speed for forward or reverse travel. Both cars were powered by two-cylinder steam engines. The “Oshkosh was built by F.A.Shomer, J.F. Morse, A. Gallnger, and A.M. Farr land. Through Waupun and Watertown they roared; the 9,875 pound “Oshkosh” trying tocatchthe 14,225 pound “Green Bay.” A report describing the race said the cars cost about $1,000 to build, made a tremendous noise, and required $2 to $G per day for operating expenses. The “Green Bay” was breezing Into Fort Atkinson, still well In the lead. Perhaps feeling somewhat contrite for Jumping ahead at the race’s start, the Green Bay” driver stopped Just outside the city to allow the “Oshkosh” to catch up, and a plowing demonstration was given before some 500 persons. Off they went again. Tho “Green Bay” soon sped ahead of the slower “Oshkosh,” looking like a sure winner. With 20 miles to go, the “Green Bay” conked out bocause of mechanical difficulties. The “Oshkosh” won the race In 33 hours and 27 minutes of travel time spread over a week’s timo. Its average speed was slightly more than six miles per hour for the ontlro raco distance. The commissioner’s report on the race was submitted to Gov. William E. Smith on July 27, 1878. It recommended--although It was the commissioner’s opinion that neither automobile complied with the requirements of the legislature. In that they did not prove to be, “a cheap and practical substitute for the use of horses and other animals on the highway and farm,”--the prize of $10,000 be awarded to the owners of the Oshkosh,” because that car had won the race and had complied with all other requirements of the law. The legislature, after considerable debate on the subject, awarded $5,000 to Farr land and Shomer, owners of the victorious “Oshkosh.” 18 Music Therapy offers challenge, opportunity, and distinctive rewards by phyllis broadbcnt Wheelchair dancing, teaching deaf children to appreciate music, organizing kitchen bands,” and leading sing-a-longs are only some of the activities a student in music therapy may encounter. What is music therapy? How does it work? Music therapy is a relatively new major on campus offered through the music department. Wisconsin has four of the eighteen schools throughout the entire United States that offer music therapy as a major; Oshkosh is one of these. The purpose of music therapy is to use music to change a person’s behavior. Through these changes it is hoped that the person will lead a more productive life. Students majoring in music therapy work with emotionally handicapped people as well as physically handicapped people. Bruce Prueter, a UW-0 music therapy instructor, explained that this type of therapy can be used on people ranging from five to 10S years of age. The student must scloct the music with his client (this term is used instead of patient” because patient connotes a negative meaning) in mind. He must take into account his client’s background. Music is definitely influenced by and perhaps, vice versa, one’s culture. The music therapist works with a psychiatrist, social worker, occupational therapist, and doctor as part of a therapy team. The team as a whole decides whether music would be advisable for the client. Then, if music can be useful, the next question is what kind? They do this by examining the client’s past to see if he’s had any training in music or if he’s shown any interest in music. Even if a client's had no experience with music, it may be prescribed. Betty Ebben, a senior in music therapy, has worked with deaf children at Lincoln School who have never HEARD music. She has taught them to relate to rhythms. Many times deaf children have a coordination problem,” she said, so I started out by teaching them to coordinate their arms and legs by marching.” The music is turned up loud enough to produce vibrations on the floor. This way the children can feel the vibrations and keep the beat. They also learned stamping and clapping songs to teach them rhythm as well as coordination. Evensocialetiquette can be taught to the deaf children through music. The children watch their instructor say the words and llpread while they keep time to the music. Mrs. Ebben also taught the deaf children how to squaredance. She said the hardest thing to remember was to be in visual contact with the children at all times so they could lipread the next call. The kids were very receptive,” Mrs. Ebben recalls, and it was such a challenge to make myself understood, but through their responsiveness we did it.” Sing-a-longs are Mary Schlosser’s specialty. MissSchlosser is a 20-year old Junior majoring in music therapy, and enjoys working with people in nursing homes. She starts out each session with an exercise program because when she first began her work many of the older people kept falling asleep in their wheelchairs. A slng-a-long follows; songs from the past and religious hymns are some of the favorites. The older people really look forward to the sing-a-longs,” Miss Schlosser said. They congregate in the singing room for as long as an hour waiting for her arrival. For many of the older people, Mary Schlosser is the only visitor they haw all week. Miss Schlosser organized a Christmas choral program at Bethel Nursing Home. The older people sang Christmas songs for visiting members of their families and the Bethel Home staff. 19 Because the older people liked music so much, MlssSchlosscrtaught them wheelchair dancing. This Is done by a person manipulating the wheelchair person to the time of the music. “Wheelchair waltzes are a favorite, and they look nice, too ’ Miss Schlosser said. She has also worked with emotionally disturbed children at Winnebago. She helpod thorn make puppets and put on a musical. In this way they release their anxieties as they learn how to cooperate with other people. The children learn toact through their puppets, and for the first time for many of them, their hidden personalities can be observed as a part of analysis and treatment. Carol Tletje, a senior music therapy major, works with mentally retarded young people at Gillingham School In Neenah. Of her 18 students, almost all have some speech or coordination problems. Teaching rhythm patterns was a very Important part of the program. The group also sang familiar tunes from musicals and songs requested by students. Last year Mrs. Tietje’s students from Gillingham School presented a Christmas concert at UW-O. “It showed how I worked with my students, she said, “and the kids enjoyed preparing for the concert so much.” Working with blind children that have multiple handicaps is also an enjoyable part of Mrs. Tletje's curriculum. Because the children depend on their sense of touch, exercises In motor coordination are helpful. “It loosens them up so they respond more readily, said Mrs. Tletje. Singing Is another part of their program. Mrs. Tletje composes songs to teach the children such things as how a tree feels and looks, how to count money, or how to spell words. The songs are like an advertising Jingle. They have simple words and catchy tunes so the children can easily remember them. Mrs. Tletje has also worked with aged people in nursing homes. Besides sing-a-longs and hymn time, she started a “kitchen band; each person gets an article from the kltchen-a wash board, an egg beater, a wooden spoon, etc.-and plays his “Instrument rhythmically while Mrs. Tletje plays the piano or saxophone. “They enjoy it a lot, and are receptive to new songs,” she said. The schedule for a music therapy-major Is quite rigorous. Volunteer work is done every week during all four years of one’s college career. It is considered to be the most comprehensive music major. Besides numerous music courses, a minor In psychology Is needed with emphasis on sociology. A six month Internship under two established music therapists Is also a requirement before 0 • • 20 Marriage Makers You’re married the moment he placos the ring on your finger — and yoq place the ring on his.

Salaries are comparable to people with special education degrees; the pay scale starts at $8,000 and can go up to $20,000. The practice of music therapy used to be confined to state hospitals, but within the past decade it lias branched out to Include nursing homes, public schools, general hospitals, prisons, private clinics, and own private therapists with their own offices. The possibilities are unlimited. The field of music therapy offers challenge, opportunity, and distinctive reward to Its students. It doesn’t work for all people--no one therapy does. But through its combined efforts with other fields of therapy, it could offer a whole new dimension to the Improvement of mental and physical health. 21 If you ever visit the Kurjong Waterfall in Kymgang-san, Korea, be on your guard! The 328 foot high waterfall produces such a forceful wind that it will knock down a viewer standing 15 feet away. A French heiress, Hortense Mancini (1646-1699), with a dowry of $5,600,000, rejected 2 suitors on the grounds that they were penniless exiles. Later in history, one became King Charles n of England and the other King Peter n of Portugal. Excluding fictitious characters, the vampire bat of Panama actually feeds exclusively on blood. Working as a servant for 15 years at a daily wage of 4$ is hardly a lucrative job. However, Mathilde Leblond did this for a living in Les Trois Pistoles, Quebec.

Children like diversity, which this book does not offer, with the copy occupying whole pages and blah photographs completing the rest of the book. Tltorcfore, the adult society has taken over J.L. Seagull's cause and bought enough copies to place it on the bestseller list, ranking it with VALLEY OF THE DOLLS and LOVE STORY. Even here on campus, J. L. SEAGULL is a popular book; the Union Bookstore had approxi-malley fifteen books one day and only one copy the next, with promises to order more. JONATHON LIVINGSTONSEAGULL has been a frequently mentioned book in many households in our society for quite a few months now; however, I first became aware of the book when TIME devoted its front cover to the young gull's rise from a book page to a movie script. Newspapers also ran accounts of the star treatment the gulls received, such as hotel suites with views of the ocean, special seagull menus and directors’ chairs. I finally succumbed to society's conventions and bought my pcrsonnal paperback copy for $1.50. I started reading the book with an open mind, but after the first threo 24 pages, which were filled with seagull aeronautics, I understood why a child would not put up with it. I continued reading, determined to make it to the end, realizing that much good literature starts out slow and boring. Fifteen minutes later I finished the book, digested its moral of trying for perfection, and stared at my knees. Has the American society become so anti-intellectual that their favorite books must be child-oriented and filled with trite statements about “un-limited freedom,’’ perfection and the expressing of love? JONATHON LIVINGSTON SEAGULL does not require that the reader think; everything is stated outright, including the complete details on how to complete a sixteen-point vertical slow roll, or how to reach the next point of perfection. Most critics will agree that the nation's bestsellers are not the books that will survive and be the great literature of our era. Those are the books, though, that our society wants to read, and feels obligated to buy. The authors are hauling in money and fame, while offering our American society easy reading Junk. A bestseller usually is not very long, since the average American has a short attention span. If the novel is long, sex and violence dominate the story to keep the reader’s interest. Everyone reads these books so that they may hold literary conversations with their colleagues, neighbors and families. Magazines review these books, interview the authors, and inform their readers of exactly what to expect from the book in terms of plot and theme. Because of this publicity, most readers of bestsellers have preconceived ideas and opinions of the book. Often the most disheartening fact about bestsellers is the poor writing quality they offer, both in terms of style and thought. Society is reading, but they are not thinking. Like fashion, we follow a trend that a good advertising firm sets. Who are the authors of our age that are writing for the people who want intellectual stimulation? Where does a person find books that are not for the mindless pack-followers? Publishers do not push these books, since the money comes from the masses and these books are not for the masses. Various literary Journals may be of some help, though these books are not usually published in paperback editions because of their low demand. Anti-intelloctuallsm is growing in our American culture and this bestseller sterilization of literature is one of the main consequences. r i 25 • I ( 26 Melted ice, Cracked ribs— Winter Carnival by Imda me early Ice artists chipped away at their melting creations, and rope tuggers were dragged through mud puddles. It was Winter Carnival time again--only Old Man Winter and Jack Frost didn't cooperate. “World Wide Holidays--in Ice was the 1973 theme for what could have been considered more of a spring celebration, had the weather not finally relented with a white covering on the final day of the festivities. The week’s line-up of musical groups received electric responses from capacity crowds in the Union Draught Board. The mixture of Black Society’s soul, Luther Allison’s blues and boogie, and Hicks and the Hot Licks country twang provided hot sounds in the early February nighttime air. Human funnels did their yearly exhibition in the Chug-a-lug contest, and blindfolded wonders bulldozed 30 oz. blueberry pies down their gullets in hot pursuit of the coveted swine trophies. After the pie competition one contestant remarked that the marble-sized fruit had still been frozen. Site said her stomach was beginning to churn, but she was looking forward to next year when she can try her luck again. The battle-worn heroes fought for glory in the evening outdoor games. Bruised shins, black eyes and a few cracked ribs befell some players in the high spirited, yet good-natured, competition as they vyed to fill their organizations’ trophy cases. “Godspcll, the Carnival catalyst, was an extraordinary theatrical combination of St. Matthew’s gospel with vaudevillian song and dance. Performers paraded in the aisles, synthesizing the audience’s exuberance. “Hollywood’s Best contributed a celluoid snowstorm in “Airport, the movie recreation of Chicago's blizzard a few years back.

Your statements may be unfounded. Significant discoveries are being made here by scholars in all fields. Many professors spend a great deal of time on special projects while still carrying heavy classroom schedules. It seems that the contemptuous labels of “UW-Zero” and “Oshburg U.” are applied by people who fail to recognize what UW-O is really all about. Dr. Antoinette Shewmake of the Foreign Language Department teaches courses in French composition, conversation, and literature, but is also highly specialized in the field of history. She is combining these two disciplines in a remarkable research project based upon the previously unpublished works of the famous Frenchman, Caron de by barb crust Beaumarchais. Beaumarchais is generally known for his French plays, ‘'The Barl)er of Seville” and “The Marriage of Figaro.” However, Caron de Beaumarchais was also a political statesman who figured prominently in the French role in the American Revolution. Modern historians tend to view Beaumarchais as a crook who sought to profit from French aid to America. Dr. Shewmake has discovered significant evidence in the unpublished works and correspondence of Beaumarchais which prove him to be an honorable man and not the mere henchman of corrupt French ministers. It is the contention of Dr. Shewmake that tecause these documents have not teen brought to light, the history of Beaumarchais and his involvement in the American Revolution has teen wrongly recorded. Through her work, Dr. Shewmake also hopes to show many of the reasons why France aided the American cause. Besides preparing a translation and bilingual edition of Beaumarchais’ works, Dr. Shewmake is also working on an introduction to the edition which will clarify the evidence and correlate the complex causes of I3eaumarchais’ actions and the history of the American Revolution. For the past two years, Dr. Robert Arnoitofthe Chemistry Department has teen working on several projects that deal with environmental analysis. With the help of undergraduate students and financial grants, he has teen able to study the quality of the water and air in the Oshkosh area. « Dr. Robert Arnott Arnott studied the water in the Oshkosh location of Lake Winnebago by surveying the amounts of trace elements present. He was particularly interested in the amounts of arsenic and mercury found in the water. Dr. Arnott is also studying a representative cross-section of the fish in Lake Winnebago. By analyzing their flesh and internal organs, the amounts of mercury and arsenic present can be determined. Arnott also employs a neutron activation process to analyze sediment samples. The samples are taken to a nuclear reactor in Madison where they are radioactivated and then brought backtoUW-O for testing. The testing procedure is complex and timers consuming, but accurate trace element measures can be calculated. Since the water treatment plant in Oshkosh is IrWed 28 downstream from the sewage treatment plant, Arnott has conducted studies to find the effects of the arrangement. By measuring the amounts of sodium at both sites, Arnott correlated the results. Throughout his studies, Dr. Arnott has found the water in the Oshkosh area to be well within the federal limits and much cleaner than that in many other areas. Even with his in-depth research into environmental analysis. Dr. Arnott believes that his first responsibility is to his students. He believes that instructors should always be available to their students. Arnott teaches several courses in the UW-O Chemistry Department, including Special Problems and Radiochemistry. |H Quiver Date: Sat., April 28 Time: 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Place: Pollack Alumni House All proceeds go to Student E mergency Loan Fund. | Sponsored by Alumni Association Alumni Association to host Flea market by barb ernst The UW-O Alumni Association does much more than just keep in touch with old Oshkosh graduates. In an effort to help present Oshkosh students, the Alumni Association has recently instituted a new project, The Alumni Service Fund. The fund is an on-going project which is student-oriented in concept. One of the recent achievements of the Alumni Service Fund was to contribute to the Student Emergency Loan Fund which grants short-term loans to needy UW-O students. The loan fund is not supplied by state or federal aid, but by private contributions. Last fall the Alumni Association was able to donate $1000 to the Emergency Loan Fund through a special benefit theatre evening held at the Fredric March Theatre. In a continuing effort to reach all UW-O students, the Alumni Association plans to hold an outdoor Flea Market on Saturday, April 28, from 10:00 to 4:00, in the front yard of the Pollock Alumni House. Items may be donated by students, alumni, faculty, and friends of the university, with all proceeds going toward the Student Emergency Loan Fund. Ms. Jean Nelson, Director of Alumni Affairs, sees the project as an all-university affair. She hopes to generate campus involvement in the project, as well as provide an entertaining activity where all segments of the university can meet informally. Through the Alumni Service Fund, the Association plans to develop other new projects and provide a valuable service to the UW-O community. 29 College - weary students frolic on St. Pat’s Day by sally graves On M arch 17 Oshkosh hosts the annual Saint Patrick’s Day Brawl. .On this day a strange metamorphosis takes place In the bar-going ha-b its--and the class-attending habits--of the students of this fair city. leprechauns take control of tie weather, and do strange things to leer, hot dogs, doughnuts and other otherwise-consumable objects. The city comes alive In the wee hours of the morning. Fraternities host leer breakfasts. Bands start playing in the bars at 7:00 a.m. :-inge green-haired, green-freckled beings bounce out of dorms and a-partments to partake of a breakfast of shamrock-colored beer and grey-green doughnuts. Strong St. Paddy's Day advocates spend the entire morning in the bars consuming green beer. The snow begins to molt as the temperature outdoors clim’ s. As the day warms up, more and more people abandon classes and head for The Strip.” By early afternoon the bars and streets are Jammed full of Halloween-clothed creatures in various stages of intoxication. By mid-afternoon the entire student population of The Berg” appears to be half Irish, one quarter goblin and at least one quarter drunk. I.ittle green leprechauns begin to frolic around on the streets with bed-sheeted Roman reincarnations. Shamrock-tattooed girls run around kissing green-derbied guys. The wild, green hot dogeating, green beer drinking day grind. f t 30 At about 6 p.m. the people who have managed to go to classes during the day hit the bars. The crowd begins getting a little queozy. People start dancing on--and falling off of—the tables. Drunken bartenders begin to kick out the more obnoxious of their drunken patrons. These poor rejected people then wander into another bar, or stand out on Wisconsin Avenue drinking beer and blocking traffic. Little fights break out on the sidewalks, and the police foot patrol on The Strip grows as the night goes on. Some of the revellers begin to sicken, but others whirl on through the puddles of spilled beer. People begin to filter home one by one, leaving the remainder of St. Patrick’s Day to the stronger stomached and the late starters. The night grows seasonally cool. The bar floor becomes muddy, faces turn green as the food coloring rubs out of the dyed hair, and the frenzy slows as the evening winds to an end. The bars close and a few bedraggled elves and goblins linger on the street. Soon the streets are empty. The leprechauns steal away, and the bar-golng--and the class-attending--habits of UW-O students return to normal until next St. Paddy’s Day. All ttiat remains of this celebration of spring is left-over green beer and, here and there, a half-eaten green hot dog. -s- • Quiver p r i jt) iRffiiaurant Entertainment Thurs., Fri. Sat.

One of the highlights of the crass country team this season was its second place finish at the Titan Invitational held at Menominee Park on Sept. 23. Solwyn Griffith and Steve Ross finished second and third for the Titans on the five-mile course. Tlie gymnasts set a new team record against St. Cloud of Minnesota when they accumulated 141.7 points. Much to Coach Allen’s delight it was the first time Oshkosh had beaten St. Cloud. The swimming team placed fourth in the state university conference relays, and second in their own Titan relays.

Whether it was a puppy or a kitty, it was yours to play with, feed, teach neat tricks to and let Mom clean up after. Pots are something you’re never too old to enjoy. They can be lots of company and do almost human things. Sebastian Over the past four years, more and more students have been acquiring pets and taking thorn virtually everywhere. Why the trend toward having a dog or cat? Perhaps it's a status symbol, a carryover from childhood days, or maybe it’s a true love for four-legged furry creatures that aro members of the canidae or felidae families. But whatever the case, anyone knows that his pet has a very distinct personality and easily becomes one of the gang. Sebastian, a nine-month-old white German shepherd, likes to be around people. Occasionally ho comes with his owner to the UW-O campus for classes. Because of Sebastian's size and the Gorman shepherd reputation, some people are afraid of him. But aftor they’ve been around him for a couple of minutes, they see that Sebastian is as docile and friendly as a newborn pup. Sebastian loves to chew on things-s Uppers, shoes, bedspreads, almost anything that’s near him when he’s frolicking. A large puppy that plays that much is bound to have a hearty appetite. However, Sebastian eats only twice a day. Devouring a can of dog food and one and one-half pounds of dry dog food keeps him healthy. For exercise Sebastian enjoys running and Jumping, both indoors and out. He cleared everything off the top of the refrigerator in a single leap, a 1 he’s still a growing pup. Although sleek and graceful in appearance, Simba had a slightly abnormal childhood. Getting stoned while sitting in a paper bag, he has been spaced out ever since. Simba hxs a bad sense of direction, so consequently he gets lost. For this reason he usually stays close to Simba home. He sloops with his owner and has a very unique way of arousing his owner in the morning. Simba puts his paw on his owner’s beard and pats gently. A gamo Simba enjoys Immensely is chase; the owner runs and Simba chases. It looks like a chase scene in the “French Connection” except it all takes place in the house. Simba does have a few weird habits. One that comes to mind is the foot warmer idea for those cats with cold feet. Simba recommends climbing a tree and hanging by one’s front paws. It may look a little bizarre but it really works. Simba has decided to keep his master when he graduates. They have lots of fun together and he thinks that he’d miss patting tliat beard in tie morning. A gray and white miniature schnauzer, Gus, is extremely intelligent and clever. He loves to play-tricks on his owner. A favorite trick for Gus is the howl-a-long-the owner howls and Gus follows, echoing the same howl. Gus admits being very good at it, although he doesn’t like a piano accompaniment. Another favorite on Gus’ list is a gamo that Involves his terry cloth “baby.” Knots are tied in terry cloth liand towels. Gus grabs the terry cloth baby and shakes until 36 he gets the knots out. It makes him a bit dizzy but it's all in a day's fun. Being a finicky eater, Gus likes only the things that agree with his stomach. Prime Choice, people food, and cheese and sausage are edibles on his menu. A dog needs a varied diet, too. When bedtime comes, Gus sleeps under the kitchen table on his beach towel. Occasionally lie sneaks upstairs under one of the beds, but getting downstairs without being seen can be tricky and should lie attempted by only the most clever dog. Kitty, a calico cat, stopped at a house for Thanksgiving dinner and has been there ever since. She’s cuddly, playful, and has added another dimension--pregnancy. She doesn’t come when she’s called, won’t eat chicken parts cat food, and practically tramples anyone who is heading for the kitchen. During the day she passes her time looking out the window, sleeping on top of the refrigerator, and watching a squirrel that lives nearby. Her favorite trick is conning each of the four humans in the apartment to feed her in the morning. She does this by waking each person up separately and pulling their covers toward the kitchen. After the person follows her out, she lets out a meow that indicates that either starvation or labor is setting in. False alarm-it’s just a trick to get more food this time. Being crafty and worldly, Kitty tells us things that we sometimes find hard to believe. She claimed that she saw a large black bunny hopping around in her backyard. That’s plausible, but do you really believe that he winked at her?

Hart, 1971, comes easiest to mind) nationally and several recent articles In the Oshkosh ADVANCE-TITAN locally have been raising the question of abolishing final exam week or even final exams altogether. I tend to go along with the idea. To be Justified at all it seems to mo that finals must serve some educationally sound purpose--and do they? Certainly students and instructors need to know how learning is progressing. This is an all semester long, continuous need however and I claim it is questionably served by an exams week held at the end of the semester after classes have ceased meoting formally. When I think of this question I am also reminded of how many students have told me that they cram study only the week before finals, since finals are all that counts, and then forgot everything to recover until the next “weck-bcfore-flnal-exam week.” I don't think this contributes anything to learning. The exam week structure is getting in the way. We appear to be teaching students to procastinate study until “it counts when that is certainly not our intent at all. Also, since classes never moot again students usually don’t even know what they did on the final exam, except for passing it or failing it. There is no chance to use the exam itself as a learning experience. All of this tells me that we letter change, and get rid of final exam week, awl probably look closely at the whole question of final exams. Should Final Exam Week Be Abolished? (5®0Q Statement by Dr. Rucinski Although there are valid reasons for changing our present policy concerning “final exam week, may I suggost that the more ardent attacks have been made because of certain unfortunate underlying reasons. First, for some the attack on final exam week is merely symptomatic of a more general “problem” which irritates them, namely examinations in general and also current grading procedures. In these cases, their attack is misdirected. The arguments cited by opponents of the present final exam policy also tend to be Indictments of the application of the current policy rather than the policy itself. When a final examination carries too much weight in determining a final grade, the fault is not with the final exam week, but with the instructor. A comprehensive final examination of minute and trivial details is not justifiable, but a more general comprehensive examination which demands synthesis certainly is. Then, too, students who have been studying throughout the semester should not have to step up the pace excessively during final exam week. Five or six hours of final week REVIEW for a three-credit course should be sufficient to maintain an earlier grade standing. But if a student did a minimum of studying during the five or six weeks prior to exam week, his exam week studying could also include a considerable amount of INITIAL LEARNING. This initial learning of material plus review could indeed add up to a 38 r (% Universities have often been accused of resisting change and retaining medieval practices. Perhaps one way of answering out crltics-and of moving into the modern era-is to change the present system of exams and exam week to some system that demonstrably contributes to education and learning. After all, that is what the university is all about. Response by Dr. Rucinski Two of Dr. Robert McKeag’s basic premises are that the major purposes of measurement and evaluation is to assist in the teaching-learning process, and that students and instructors have a continuing need throughout the semester to know how learning is progressing. It would be very difficult to disagree with these premises. Keeping in line with the second premise, Dr. McKcag is strongly against “final exam week” because the feedback normally associated with test-return day is not obtained by the students. Here Dr. McKeag has levied one of the most valid arguments against “final exam week,” but not against a final exam procedure that would provide class time for going over the exams. Dr. McKcag hints that information he has received from students Indicates that frequently the final examination results are very heavily weighted, or even being the sole consideration, in determining a student’s grade. Cons-sidcrlng the faculty size, isolated cases of such an occurence could be a likelihood, but is this undesirable phenomenon so widespread? Perhaps the best decision concerning “final exam week” continued to page 40 Dr. Robert McKeag burdensome ordeal! In such cases, the fault is not with the final exam week but with the student’s study habits. Response by Dr. McKeag Professor Rucinski’s statement certainly shows that there are two sides to the abollsh retain final exam week coin. The points ho raises do haw a good deal of validity. There are students who dislike any kind of exams ami put off study for insufficient reasons and there are instructors who misapply present policy. It is also true that these problems might not disappear under a different evaluation policy. However, while Dr. Rucinski makes some very good points, it does seem to me that they are underlying, somewhat salient arguments which are peripheral to the central contention. I think that the question raised: do we keep the present final exam week policy or modify it or even abolish final exams, is of much importance. It seems to me that it is in fact vitally central to the whole instructional program of this university. I feel tliat the question is essentially, then, an educational one, to be decided on EDUCATIONAL grounds rather than grounds of application of present policy or student or instructor convenience. I think that it is in the educational arena that the question must l e decided-lf it is to be decided on the basis of carefully thought out criteria. Certainly as concerned, educated people we should expect, and accept no less. H 39 r m Dr. Philip Rucinski Dr. Rue inski’s response continued from page 39 would be obtained by using the problem-solving technique. The first step would be the elicitation of the genuine purposes of examinations. With the purposes serving as major premises, plausible approaclies would be analyzed. The final step would involve an analysis of the two mast plausible alternatives. Would “final exam week” survive such a critical test of plausibility? GRADUATING SENIORS VIEW COLLEGE EXPERIENCES by peter kahlenberg f I Christine Bcrgalla Political Science major. History minor Oshkosh, Wis. Originally from Detroit, Christine will graduate in May with a 4.00 overall. She is married, lias two children, and is carrying 20 credits this semester. Christine attended Michigan State University for one year and came to UW-0 when l or husband accepted a Job offer in Oshkosh. She is impressed with UW-O because of the small classes and close relationship between student and professor. She thinks UW-Oshould re-evaluate priorltles-sending the golf team to Florida when the political science and other departments are cutting back is foolish. And students should have more of a voice in how the university is run. The university if for the student, she believes. With two children and 20 credits, Christine has a strict timetable. She uses the services of the day care center, and studies at night when her children are asleep. She recommends that you “budget your time, don’t fall behind, don’t cut classes, express your ideas in class, and challenge professors-they CAN learn from students.” Ken Jensen Biology-Pre-Med major West Allis, Wis. (Four more years of schooling at Madison, then internship, are ahead for Ken. He is very active in the Biology Department.) When I first came to Oshkosh I was undecided as to what major I would pursue. I was interested in a university with a wide curriculum at a cost that was within my budget. After my first semester, I developed an Interest in biology-specifically in the area of pre-med. The professors in both the biology and chemistry departments are among the most helpful and understanding in the university. They’ll take time out of their schedules for any student-all the student has to do is ask. As a freshman I joined the university swimming team and participated in Judo at the Oshkosh YMCA. In my 40 Christine Bergaila Ken Jensen sophomore year I became interested in an Africa Study Program. I was accepted into the program and attended the University of Ghana in my Junior year. The year in Ghana was one of cultural as well as academic enlightenment. It enabled me to understand and explore a dew loping society in today’s world. 1 saw the great Importance of the U.S. as a world power and as a leader in the western world. The trip gave me the opportunity to trawl in Africa and European countries. The program offers a remarkable experience and I would recommend it to any eligible student. As a senior, I look back on my years at Oshkosh as quite satisfying. Kristine Biclide these two fields will be closely interrelated. Why not learn to work together to complement each other rather than competing with each other? I would sincerely hope that interdepartmental program s-e specially those of seminar format-will begin to increase within the educational system. Gary Ertl Nursing Biology major Stockbridgc, Wise. (Gary will graduate in May and plans to work in the Wausau area as a male nurse.) Having been raised in a small farming community I acquired an attachment toand a respect for nature. In high school I was Introduced to biology. It seemed to answer somo of nature’s peculiarities that stymied me. After acquiring what I thought was an expanded knowledge of biology, 1 was ready toapproach college with the hope of a biological research position upon graduation. My knowledge and interest in biology began to expand at UW-O. A biology club composed of a close-to-nature group of people with social activities was formed. Earth day was in the planning but tragedy struck beforehand. Dr. Shapiro with a full carload of four students, a slippery road, and six-week exams kept me from going with them. Shapiro park now-stands in their commemoration. Time is swift--the Junior year is upon me and the research field is becoming heavily populated. Soul searching and achievement bring forth the possibility of nursing. But biology is deop in me: thus, I hare a double major. From my landlord to the police this community has given me a fair shake; the university is adapting ot student change. It has expanded greatly in fire years. 1 leave here with peace of mind. I challenged the world for an education, and I won. John Gardner Radio-TV-Film major West Allis, Wise. (Working at a local radio station weekends, John gets announcing practice and experience. He lives in Donner Hall and is very active in the Radlo-TV-Fllm program.) Kristine Euclide Psychology Political Science major Chilton, Wis. (Twenty-year-old Kris is the Assistant Head Resident of Stewart and Evans Halls. She will graduate in May, after three years at UW-O, with a 3.98 overall, and plans to go to law school.) My work within student personnel and my person experiences hare left me firmly convinced that the ability to work and live with people who may not be like oneself should and can bo one of the most important things learned in a university setting. But this respect for human individuality-must permeate through all areas cf life or it is superficial. Wo in a university setting speak of being open-minded, but perhaps we are only intellectuallzlng, and perhaps we're replacing certain biases with others. For this reason I would like to see more inter-departmental coursos and programs developed. I see great benefits from seminars involving psychology and social work students. In later working situations Gary Ertl 41 I came to UW-O because I had the urge to go into communications, and Oshkosh is one of the few universities in the state with a Radio-TV-FUm major. In furthering my education here I have found that the basic requirements for a Radio-TV-Film major are a pleasant voice, creativity, and a sense of humor. “That’s great,” a freshman might say, “but how does anyone attain these goals?” Practice. Practice. Practice. I feel Radio-TV-Film is a major where one uses what he learns in the classroom while still in college. The freshman should be involved with radio workshop from the beginning of his four years. Involvement, practice, and a desire to improve are the three keys to success in Radio-TV-Film. It also pays to let the area radio stations know who you are. I do believe that “it is just as much who you know as what you know.” I plan on working in the Madison area after graduation as a “rock jock”, eventually working toward a management position Pat Bohmer Special Education Milwaukee, Wise. (Pat Bohmer is now student teaching in Appleton, and lives in a purple room in Breese Hall.) I came to UW-O because my sister went here. I, like many freshmen, did not really know why I was here, except perhaps to have a good social life during my first year at college. I stayed because UW-O has a good Special Education Department. Also, John Gardner during my second year I discovered the Student Council for Exceptional Children, a professional society on campus for Special Education majors. That’s another reason why I completed my education here at UW-O. I would recommend all students to join and be active in a professional society that relates to their particular major Iwre on campus. It’s a great way to become exposed to important people in your field. The city of Oshkosh leaves a lot to be desired in the wintertime. Summer and fall, however, do a lot more justice to this city. The lakes and parks make this city really enjoyable and if it weren’t for classes, one could really have a great time. After graduation I plan to get a summer job, and in September begin teaching in a southern Wisconsin school system. Ultimately, my future husband and I plan to establish and administer our own camp for the mentally retarded. Q Pat Bohmer ROB E b Senior cleanup MARY J. ABLARD — Social Scienco; Fond du Lac.

So that you might appreciate U, I would like to take the time to explain It to you. We decided to try something new In the concept of yearbooks. Many of our staff members worked on the 1972 QUIVER and felt that we had a staff capable of trying something more creative and different In the field of Journalism. A new concept In yearbooks Is the magazine format, and we decided to try It. Of course we had no Instructor or student experienced In magazine layout and design to help us, but we wanted to give it a try. So we went about it the only way we knew how--we applied as much of our yearbook training that we could; we read and studied all the Information on magazine publication that we could find; and we applied the methods of trial and error (the only method available to us). If you look through the Issues chronologically you will see many Improvements. If something didn’t work, we tried something else, --In short, we've Improved a great deal In each Issue. Another point of lnterest--our printor Is In Salt Lake City, Utah, so we don’t send an Issue In on one day and get It back the next. It takes approximately four weeks after it is received by the printer before we get the finished product back. (This allows three weeks for printing and one week for shipping.) For this reason our writing cannot be as timely as we would like It to be. If you look through your issues of the NEW QUIVER, you will find that much of the writing is feature material (NOT straight news material) and Important events on campus. Much of the things the old yearbook concept covers such as dorms, sports, greeks, off campus living, senior pictures, and organizations are also Included. This Is because the magazine format In yearbooks Is also supposed to keep the flavor of some of the annual yearbook highlights. We don’t have a huge budget such as NEWSWEEK or COSMOPOLITAN, so we can’t be lavish with color. Color artwork and photography must be sent to the printer at least six weoks before the deadline. It's virtually impossible to cover an event six weoks before It happens and for this reason it’s hard to use or plan color. Also, for the first time we were doing our own typesetting. This Involved learning how to use the dilapidated machines that the journalism department has, training typesetters, learning and teaching others how to use the headliner and varityper, and doing our own backshop work with no previous experience. Keep In mind that ourstaff members are full time students, and working on the NEW QUIVER was only an extracurricular activity. For some of us it was a part-time Job, but no one gets paid for more than 60 hours a month, although many of us put in over 100 hours a month. The first time you try to do something, It probably Is not going to be the best that you've over done. Tho moro practice you get, the better tho end result will be. For this reason it is not humanly possible to expect the NEW QUIVER to look like NATIONAL GEOGRAPHICS Name of Publication: The New Quiver Dato of Issue: April 27, 1973 Statement of Frequency: 6 Issues during the regular school year with delivery the first week of the months October, November, Docember, February, March, April of 1972-73 Issue VI Subscription Price: $6.00 Third Class postage paid at Oshkosh, Wisconsin The New Quiver University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh Oshkosh, Wisconsin 54901 or any other professional publication, especially on its first few attempts. Even to compare tho magazine to the 1972 QUIVER Is unfair. Putting out an annual yearbook (something that had been done at UW-O many times) and putting out a six Issue magazine for the first time Is incomparable. Of course the two are not going to look exactly alike or bo of the same quality. One should expect errors to be made, and lots of them. The idea Is not to keep making the same errors, but to make different errors and In this way Improve. A complaint las been the quality of the pictures. We realize this and lave tried to Improve It. Most of the photography Is of acceptable quality. However, our printer Is more than generous with his Ink supply and can turn some of our host photos Into ugly, murky blobs. We complain to him and ask him to please check for this In future issues, but we still receive Issues that look like they were dropped In a bucket of Ink and left to dry on a dirty floor. With the printer so far away, Instructions can get terribly complicated over the phono and sometimes misunderstood. “Why not get a printer closer to Oshkosh?’’ you might ask. The State Printing Division takes the company that submits the lowest bid and no printers In our area have ever submitted the lowest bid. This was the first time that our printer had ever attempted printing a magazine, so he was bound to run Into a few difficulties. Under all circumstances, I think our printer has done a nearly satisfactory Job. I only wish he could spend moro time In doing a more complete Job on the NEW QUIVER, and that he would stop over-inking pictures. This, I hope, will come In time. Many thanks to our readers that showed enough interest to fill out the questionnaires In the March Issue. Some of the comments were Intelligent, thoughtful and definitely worth considering. As you will see next year, many will be put Into practice. Again, thanks for taking the time to show that you care. If you have any questions, or disagree with something In the NEW QUIVER, write us a letter or stop down and talk to us. The more feedback we get the more we can know what you like, what you want, and what you don’t want. Don't be bashful; we don’t bite (too often)! Tod Conrardy will be tho editor for tho 1973-74 NEW QUIVER. If you'd like to write, do artwork, learn to set type or do paste-ups, contact him at the Quiver office. We’re always after good student work and workers, and this could be your chance to develop or Improve upon your talents. Again, I’d like to say thanks to: Dave Cruslus, Chancellor Guiles, Keith LaGravos, Mark Mitchell, Mrs. Jean Nelson, Thomas Davis, Dr. Coll, Herb Willis, Wheelwright Lithography Co., Dr. Llppert, Bill Dettlaff, Root Photographers, Chicago, and the people on the NEW QUIVER staff for making the NEW QUIVER possible. We’ve learned a great deal this year and next year’s NEW QUIVER promises to offer you a great looking student publication. K«t -Uv- hlrf: rtiyUlo UiaUt.

Kkkao Wolf Advisor: Dr. Cory Coll Is the natural foods movement passing you by? by sally grapes photos by diattc obermeicr Musll is good once one gets used to its powderiness. Granola, by itself, is bland. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, the natural foods movement is passing you by. The central ldoa of eating natural foods is simple-due to lack of synthetic chemicals and technological processing, they are healthier. There Is some distinction between natural foods, organic foods and health foods. Natural foods aro foods in which no chemicals have boon added (preservatives, etc.), and processing has been kept toa minimum. Organic foods are foods grown entirely without synthetic fertilizers or postlckles. Health foods is a torm which encompasses both natural and organic foods. Natural foods havo been around for a long time. Our grandparents ate foods containing no synthetics, noadditives, and no preservatives. With the advent of technology, foods began to look more like something out of a laboratory than something out of a kitchen. A few people have always stuck to the natural, but within the last few years tlie swing back to natural foods (and to organic foods where possible) has reached fad proportions. This return to natural foods stems from a fear of the consequences of ingesting synthetic additive and preservative laden foods. Natural food advocates point out that more than 3,000 different chemicals are being added to processed foods. Some additives have been proven harmful after years of consumer use. Others have never been tested. It 1s obvious that foods without man-made additives are at least as healthy as foods containing additives which have unknown effects on the body. Although it would bo extremely difficult for one to live entlrelyonhealth foods, the area natural food stores-Gencral Nutrition Center and The Good Life-carry a variety of natural products. Most of the products are dried, a few are refrigerated, and a few others (mostly dietetic foods) are canned. The stores seem to carry mainly four types of foods: grains, nuts, dried fruits and natural sweeteners. Grains may be found in the form of flour, breads, and cereals (such as granola and musll). The bread Is quite different from store bread In that It contains no bleach and no hydrogenated fats. There are a wide variety of nuts available. Natural sweeteners Include molasses, turbinado raw sugar, and every type of honey imaginable. One product which natural food stores handle in quantity Is the soybean. The soybean comes inevery conceivable form from flour to margarine. The stores also carry such things as sea salt. Juices, carob candy, cheeses, organic eggs, natural cos- metics, and, in the General Nutrition Center, a whole line of natural vitamins and concentrated natural foods. You may be asking yourself at this point “do I have to give up meat if I turn to natural foods?’’ It isn’t necessary for one to become a vegetarian in order to Join tho health foods movement. Meat animals can be raised organlcally-no artificial growth hormones are given to the animal and the meat is not treated withdyes or chemicals. There are, of course, “meatless meats’’ in the form of soybean products for the vegetarian. Canned “meatless meats’’ seem somehow artificial. Many other natural foods haw an aura of the exotic or the artificial surrounding them. Honeys, preserves, and Juices fall into the exotic category. The types of honeys and preserves offered by natural food stores were probably never before seen outside of a del lea-tessan or gourmet counter. Guava spread and papaya spread may be natural, but they certainly also smack of the eccentric. There seems to be a contest going on between the bees to see which one can produce the rarest, most exotic honey. After all, what normal Wisconsin bee would turn out avacado, tupelo, eucalyptus, or sunflower honey? Actually, these nopunHiffjggft exotic foods are bought by some users because they are thought to have certain rare nutritional values. Speaking of the exotic and artificial, one of the area natural food stores stocks a wide variety of pills and capsules. One Jar I chose at random off the shelf contained celery capsules. Other jars contained such things as alfalfa pills, kelp pills, garlic-parsley pills and many more. The back labels of these products read “no special dietary or other claims made.” Another product which one of the health foods stores sells is “Rapid Gain Weight Tablets.” A little further along the wall wore vitamins of every Imaginable type. For all these health” products, a very “healthy” price was asked. Seeing all of this one must try very hard to remember that one Is In a “natural foods” store. Somehow a transition has been made from a sensible effort to avoid chemicals and technological processing to a hypochondriacal effort to stay fit, young and healthy by Ingesting products which are themselves the extreme In processed foods, In that these foods are so far removed from the fresh and natural that one Is led to believe that one can obtain a balanced diet from a selection of pills. If the trap of nutritional voodoo Is avoided, a balanced diet of natural foods certainly can't be harmful. It Is true that the manufacturing of 4 foods has turned into a laboratory science. It is also true that many additives are now known to be harmful. Natural foods, in a balanced diet, do overcome the problem of ingesting synthetic chemicals. Shopping wisely for natural foods, watching for specials and avoiding the miracle cure” fads which surround the use of natural foods allows feasible and healthy ways to control the problems Involved in processed food ingestion. OLIVES £jr 5 CHECK INTO NEW COUMEt by dcbhie luchkc There will be many new and Interesting courses included in the UW-O class schedule for fall of ‘73 and spring of ‘74. Since there were too many new courses offered to include in this issue, those that will appeal to the greatest number of students were selected. Many departments were in the process of getting some new courses approved by tho Dean's office, so it would be a good idea to check with the department you’re interested in by the end of this semester. By that time, they should know which courses were approved and which ones were not. When this issue of the NEW QUIVER went to the publisher, the following were the new course offerings: The English Department has three new courses on its agenda for this fall. Each is a three-credit course meant to appeal to all students, not Just English majors. A Special Topics course, “American Indian Literature,” will concentrate on an understanding of the contribution of the American Indian to literature through reading works from three periods: tho primitive period, the 19th century, and the modorn poriod. The two other now ones are Detective Fiction” and Science Fiction.” Detective Fiction” will focus on whodunits” from Poe and Collins to Rex Stout and Agatha Christie. Both American and British authors, short story and novel forms will be Included. Science Fiction” will offer alternative conceptions of man and his relationship to his environment, his machines, and himself. A course that has been offered since spring of ‘72, Sexual Roles in Literature,” will also be offered again this fall. This course presents a more balanced view of the female character than other literature courses offer. For those of you who are uncertain about your relationships with members of the opposite sex, a course offered by tho Philosophy Department this fall may provide some enlightenment. It’s called ‘‘The Philosophy of Love” and will concentrate on what various philosophers have to say on that delicate subject. And you’ll get three credits for finding out. Dr. Stephen Hintz, chairman of the International Studies Department, announced that his department will be trying something different with its Introductory courso. He will get together with someone in Economics and Political Science to eliminate the overlap between these throe coursos, and students will be able to see the close relationship between the three subjects. It will be an individually paced program similar to the one in the Physics and Astronomy Department. International Studies will also offer two other new courses in the fall: ‘‘Understanding Modern Asia,” which will be an Introductory course to Asian studies and concentrate on China, Japan, and India; and Nation Building in Less Developed Countries,” which will emphasize problem-solving techniques. According to Dr. James Guoths, of the Physics and Astronomy Department, thoy have offered three astronomy courses for all students at an individually paced level since last spring, and the program has been very successful. Students are allowed to complete the course at their own pace. These courses will be marked with an asterlck in the fall schedule. The Geography Department is offering a course in spring that is appropriate for our space age. It will be called Fleurette Antoinette Catch a sparkle from the morning sun.

He will discuss how man Is affected by living In a monsoon area. Other courses which will be offered In spring include: Geography of Recreation” which will examine characteristics of rec- Be sure to check your registration packet next year for YOUR NEW QUIVER subscription card. roatlonal facilities that aro available throughout the U.S.; and Physical Factors of Urban Environment,” which will teach students to evaluate environmental problems, and seek ways to Improve them. According to Urban and RegionalStudles chairman, Robert Halloin, the department offers a six-credit field training course for majors In which they work for government agencies. He said right now one of his students Is an ombudsman for the Oshkosh city manager. Next spring the department will bo offering Survey of World Urbanization” which will satisfy the university non-western requirement. It will bo taught by Dr. M Ilian Vuchlch, who is going to the Soviet Union this fall to obtain Information on the latest developments In that country. Contemporary Urban Issues,” which is an introduction to urban problems of crime, poverty, and housing, will be taught by Halloin In summer and spring. This fall Human Response to Urban Biophysical Environment” will be offered, and this focuses on human biological reactions to the surrounding environment. The Political Science Department also has some interesting offerings for fall. Chairman Willard Smith said that so often Interesting classes are burled under uninteresting titles, and it seems that this is what happened In Political Science. American Political Institutions” Is a three-credit seminar which will focus on women’s rights. Legal Administration of Criminal Justice” will concentrate on the role of the police, criminal courts, and the rehabilitation process. Administrative elitism vs. the democratic process will be examined In Public Administration, Bureaucracy, and the Political Process.” Other departments which are offering new courses Include: Biology, Chemistry, Economics, Buslnoss, Foreign Languages, Elomentary Education, Counselor Education, Library Science, Music, Men's Physical Education, Educational Psychology, and Religion. For further details on the courses, contact the chairman of the department. 7 UMMER by ellen uaitc This spring do yourself a favor--there are lots of different fun things to do besides just sitting on the library mall grass, soaking up the rays.

The group was formed in 1071 when Ms. Cecelia Brown came to UW-O as an instructor in the Physical Education Department. Besides their interest in dance, the members of Terpsichore have few similarities. They come from differing backgrounds and are pursuing varied majors at UW-O. Terpsichore members are united by their onjoy-mont of self-expression through the medium of dance. The major event of the year for Terpsichore is the concert recital held at the Music Hall of the Fine Arts Building. This year’s concert was not based on any particular guiding themo which therefore allowed the utilization of numerous types of music and various expressive forms. The concert is choreographed by the students themselves as well as by the faculty advisor. One of the most profound statements presented was titled, “The Truco,” which was a comment on war and Us consequences to society. Terpsichore also performs at a variety of community functions throughout the year, including local high school programs, workshops, and banquets. A public performance is also planned for May Day at the Park Plaza Mall. . Qatar i 17 r ♦ • UW-0 has high-flying sky pilot On the surface, Dr. John Karl appears to be a mild-mannered professor In tho UW-0 Physics Department. However, John Karl Is, In reality, the high-flying sky pilot of the NIUW. The NIUW is a single engine Dehavalan Otter airplane with a 58 foot wing span which Dr. Karl has helped to develop Into the only student-oriented, university owned and operated air-borne laboratory In the nation. The plane Is being used In an lnter-dlsclpllnary project by the Physics and Geology Departments In an effort to make an areomagnetlc survey of the state of Wisconsin. After 13 months of correspondence, Dr. Karl was able to persuade the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare to donate the surplus plane to UW-O. Tho plane was donated as Is” at no cost but with no guarantees that it would fly. Karl had to pick up the plane In Texas, work It Into flying condition, and fly it back to Oshkosh. Since then Karl has expanded the project Into a long-term program which Incorporates the goals of the university and the participating departments. The NIUW tows a detector which measures the earth’s magnetic field. The laboratoryequip-ment which Is carried on board tho plane has been donated, purchased, or made by the staff. Karl hopes eventually to be able to maptheentlre state of Wisconsin. The objectives of the project are numerous. The survey has academic significance In that very little Is acutally known about the goology of Wisconsin. The project also lias economic Implications concerning mining Interests. Mining companies have recently become Interested In the mining potential of the state which Karl hopes to explore. An array of special Interest projects have also arisen from the surveys, such as Project Sanquine Inquiries. Dr. Karl’s equipment can be used to locate archeological sights over wide areas. Dr. Karl Is interested In expanding his project In the future. He hopes to span various disciplines and use the equipment for other environmental surveys. Karl would also like to get more students from either the Physics or Geology Departments to take part In the project and use the air-borne lab more extensively In courses In Geophysics. When the Fond du Lac school system identified a need for a program for students with behavior probloms, Dr. Ronald Carter of the Special Education Department, offered his assistance. Dr. Ron Carter Carter, who now acts as a consultant to the Student Opportunity School (S06), believed that a talent retrieval” program was needed. The students Involved In the program were not functioning well In regular classroom situations and needed to change both their attitudes and behaviors. Therefore, Carter helped to organize a definite program to help those students. 18 1 Carter believes that since all behavior is learned, it is necessary to identify good behavior and bad behavior so that the frequency of the good behavior can be increased. To achieve this goal, a behavior modification program was begun on a contractual arrangement. The teacher developed an individual contract with tasks for each student. The tasks were detailed and had a specific earning power. When the tasks are satisfactorily completed, the student is given play money which he can use to buy certain privileges which are of a reward nature. Students can earn “funny money” as a bonus and for effort. The program has been quite successful in general. The students learn to increase acceptable behavior through the reinforcement process, and receive individual, personal attention. Carter is a strong advocate of behavior modification techniques in education and finds that the techniques can produce many positive effects. He teaches a three-credit course in Discipline and Behavior Control which is offered through the Special Education Department and deals with issues which are central to behavioral development. ©ffSXalg @©rn a® 6y barb 'n,s There may come a time after final exams and graduation when you actually start to feel bad about leaving UW-Oshkosh. You may even begin to feel like you’re going to miss the old Burg next year. If you suddenly find yourself getting anxious about losing touch with your alma mater, the UW-0 Alumni Association may be Just what you need. The UW-O Alumni Association keeps in touch with over 20,000 alumni. It plans activities for the entire University community and attempts to keep alumni actively involved with UW-O. The Alumni Association board consists of 48 members and includes volunteers from recent graduating classes. Alumni Association activities begin for each class even before they officially graduate. Alumni lectures meet with classes at the Pollock House throughout the year. This program employs the talents of UW-O graduates and incorporates them into classroom sessions. The Association will also sponsor a beer party for the senior graduating class on May 12 at the Pioneer Inn. During the summer the Alumni Association sponsors a free lecture series at Pollock House. The entire University community is invited to attend. Three lectures are planned for this summer. Dr. Jane Gott-schalk of the English Dept, will speak on June 27 at 7:30 p.m. Asa special- ist in Detective Fiction, Dr. Gott-s chalk's lecture is titled, “Everybody Loves Sherlock Holmes.” At 7:30 p.m. on July 11, Dr. Robert Snyder of the Radio-TV Dept, will discuss “Jazz Again.” Dr. Bani Mahadeva will discuss the “American Family: Fact or Fiction” in a special noon hour session on July 25. Since 1973 graduates will no longer qualify for UW-O charter flights to Europe , the Association invites all alumni to participate in a special summer charter flight. The Alumni Charter Flight will leave Chicago for Amsterdam on August 3 and will return to Chicago on August 22. The round trip ticket cost for the flight is only $299. Graduation does not put an end to your participation in Homecoming activities either. Homecoming 1973 will be held on October 13. The director of the Alumni Association, Ms. Jean Nelson, helps to schedule year-round activities for all alumni. She welcomes visitors to Pollock House at any time and aims at helping students make use of the Alumni Association services while providing an intellectual and social link with UW-O even years after graduation has become Just a memory. Graduating seniors enjoy the Alumni Beer Party at the Pioneer Inn. 19 r Garlingtonhouse and SKI TEAM--Left to right: Tim Merriam; Susie Tiddcns; Jim Rowe; Paul Schneider;. Bruce Garllnghousc.

These were the sentiments of Coach Jim Davies as he watched his Titan tennis team tuning up for another season, in hopes of gaining Its ninth straight Wisconsin State University Conference (WSUC) title. Davies’ tennis teams have placed in the top ten In the NAIA tournaments for the last eight years. Last season Oshkosh finished eighth at the national tournament after winning the WSUC and NAIA District 14 championships. Davies finished second In the balloting for the national coach-of-the-year after receiving that honor at the conference and district levels. As it looks now, the number 1 seeded player will be Larry Gagnon, a Junior from Freeport, Illinois. Following Gagnon in the number 2 position will be last season’s number 1 player, Leigh Ford. Ford is a senior from Neenah. Gary Hamachek will be in the number 3 spot. He lettered two years and comes back with excellent credentials. Sophomore Phil Kell from Wauwatosa moves up from the sixth position on last year’s squad to fill in the number 4 spot. In the number 5 spot will be Brian Koehn, a senior from Neenah. A freshman from Appleton West, Dave Tebo, will round out the squad. Tebo was West’s number 1 player last season. Davies noted that this year's squad is much stronger at the bottom positions than Titan teams of the past. The doubles teams combinations for this season will be: number 1 Ford-Gagnon, number 2 Hamachek-Koohn and number 3 Kelbe-Mike Schultz. Schultz is a sophomore from Appleton West.

Flood, who finds it hard and almost impossible to predict how his teams will do Indoor or outdoors, noted a well balanced team In reference tothis years's outdoor team. The outdoor track season will commence on April 6 against Northwestern and UW-Milwaukee, and Flood Is hoping that this season will be a little more drier than last season. “We have several promising athletes to work with this season,” Flood said. In the shot put the Titans have Randy Canham who, at the time of this printing, was number four In the conference with shots of 50 feet plus. In pole vaulting the Titans have Ken Baler, presently second In the conference. Baler Is clearing the bar at 14 feet plus. Bright spots in the high Jumps are Glenn Nennethal and Steve Merkleln. Both are freshmen and are clearing the bar at 6 feet 4 inches. Long Jumpers, Gone Spenger and Bill Mler, who are one and two respectively In the conference, have been hitting better than 23 feet so far. Jeff Forslund, the defending champion In the 100-yard dash, leads the field along with Olympian, Wayne Lewis, in the dashes. Other Titan speedsters Include Ron Kruepke and Alvin Golson. Flood noted that Harold Nedoma may be the best low hurdle man In the conference this season. In the 440 relay, the Titans will have Phil Zuehlke, Esloud Nurse, Ray Barron and Lewis. Flood said. “These four runners could be the best in the conference at the end of the season.” Half-milers includeSewlynGriffith, Gary Roehrlg and Rick Utech. In the mile run we will haw cross country lotterwinner, Gary Krueger. In the long distances the Titans willalsohave former letter winners In cross country, Kirk Ruhnke and Dave Merritt. The outdoor season will conclude on May 4-5 with the WSUC championships at Eau Claire. The NAL championships will take place at Henderson State College in Arkadelphla, Arkansas, on May 23-25. 23 KEII BRIER URULTS TO THE TOP by tom ivildermuth His sport is pole vaulting and he talks freely of what makes a pole vaulter tick. He’ll tell you that to become a pole vaulter you’ve got to be confident, daring, and a bit cocky. He will say that In a matter of seconds you will find out what you’ro made of-how much stuff you have inside yourself. He says seriously that there are no flukes In this sport, that only the best win. His name is Ken Baler, and this season he Is one of the better pole vaulters in the State Conference. Baler, a sophomore from Beaver Dam, recently cleared 14’2” for a second best mark In the conference. What does one feel as he approaches a bar over 14’ high? “I get scared,” mused Baler. “But It’s not the fear of heights that bothers me. It’s the nervousness of putting everything together for a good jump.” Pole vaulting demands a psychological make-up that Is finely tuned with physical movements. Baler said he Is often distracted by the loudspeaker when concentrating on a jump, but when lie starts down the runway, his thoughts are directed exclusively at the bar. As the pole Is anchored in the box, Baler said the key to good pole vaulting Is to rock back. When the pole bends, the back becomes parallel with the floor. Any thoughts flashing through the pole vaulter's head at this time? “Well, If I can’t see where I am, and I feel like I'm going to hit the ground, then I know I’ve got a good jump going,” said Baler. “If I don’t hit the bar with my body I follow through with the jump. Falling into the pit Is the most enjoyable part of the jump; I know then that I've made it.” Mentally, Baler approaches the jump as If he were watching himself on a great screen In front of the jumping area. He visualizes the complete jump-the perfect jump that lie hopes will unfold. The trick for him Is to sit back and watch himself clear the bar. One of the determining facts of the pole vault Is that It Is over in a matter of seconds. Three attempts at a height Is the limit. In Baler’s case the 15 hours of practice a week that he puts In can all be for naught if he misses his Intended goal of winning the event. He knows that he must coordinate his physical and mental capacities in one brief thrust of power. A hair may-divide the hit or miss at the top of his jump. And the feeling of having cleared the height is what makes Ken Baler’s pole vaulting u-nique. 24 !; ■ m 111 nm 1 r % r f GOLFERS HAVE REBUILDING SEASON by mike harlzcll The 1973 edition of Titan golfers will find it hard to match the 12-1 dual meet record of last season’s links men. Duo primarily to the graduation of four senlors-Ted Donker, Jed Phillips, Don Kaddatz and Steve Rezachek-thc Titans will have a rebuilding season. The outlook, though, for the Titans isn’t all that dreary. Back from last year’s squad is senior Chuck Voy. Voy’s 78.1 average last season paced the Titans to its fourth place finish in the WisconslnStatcUniversityCon-ference (WSUC), just one point out of second place. Voy also placed tenth in the WSUC top ton golfers. “We’ll bo working with practically a new team this season,” said Eric Kitzman, golf coach and director of athletics. “We’ve been trying tonar-row the field of 22 candidates down to 12 golfers for this season.” As soon as the weather clears up, the Titans will head out to the driving range, but in the meantime the Field House provides an excellent place for the Titans to tone up their muscles and take care of any mistakes they are making in their swings. Besides Voy, the Titans will have Jeff Stcggomon, a sophomore from Brown Dcor. I.ast season as a freshman, Steggemen competed in all but one meet to compile a 79.6 average. Kitzman also looks for some help from Jeff Hagen who transferred from East Texas State a year ago after playing his high school golf at Green-dale. As far as WSUC play is concerned, Kitzman thinks that UW-LaCrosse or UW-Whitewater are the teams tobeat. Last year the LaCrosse Indians finished first in the conference, ahead of Whitewater by seven points. The Indians also won the NAIA District 14 tournamont and made a good showing in the national tournament. This year the WSUC tournamont will again be played at Lawsonla Links in Green Lake on May 7-8. The site of the national tournament will bo at Colombus, Georgia on June 5-8. 25 BASEBALL TEAM--Front row (left to right): Todd Linde-man, Bob Lenz, Jay Weckler, Lee Wyngaard, Brian Schultz, Phil Klismith, Mark Hinske.

Baseball team STRIVES to regain conference crown The 1973 Titan baseball team will try to rogain the Wisconsin State University Conference (WSUC) crown this season after they had to settle for a second place finish last year. Previously the Titans had the conference crown four years running. The Titans will have to concentrate on building up its pitching staff this season after the graduation of Don Erring, Earl Cummings and John Stoffel. Stoffel and Brian Felda were selected by the major league draft. Stoffel went to the California Angels and Felda was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers. “The key to the entire season will be our pitching staff,” Coach Russ Tiedemann said. Returning from last year's staff are Tim Fenn and Dan Olson. Dene Storch, star hurlorfrom Neenah, will also help the young staff. “The bulk of our defense is returning, so hopefully we can bear the load until our staff develops,” Tiedmann said. This season’s infield will probably have Ken Hartwig, who led the team last year in RBI’s with 21, at first base. Second base will be filled by Todd Linde man, with Jim Gantner at shortstop. Third base will be maimed by Kirk Helmstead. Perhaps the strongest outfield in the conference is possessed by the Titans. The Titans will field Mark Hinske in left flold. Hinske was the Titan’s leading hitter last season with a .436 average. In right field will be Mark Miller who hit a .388 clip last year. Finally, in conter field the Titans will have Mike Flanigan; he averaged .310 last year. NAIA District playoffs are scheduled to be played at Stevens Point on May 18-19.

Cosby’s monologue took the audience on a reminiscent Journey of the hilarity of growing up. Starting out with his adolescence, Cosby told of the never-ending battle that he and his friends would carry on against adults and their parents, always trying to pull off the big one” and get by the rules set up by adults. Cosby launched Into subjects dealing with puberty, dating, a car that was more airplane than auto, college and marriage. His ease of handling controversial subjects, some of which tended toward the risque, earned him much praise from the audience. Only once did he touch on the subject of race. This Involved a situation during his teenage years which found him with some unsightly pimples on his face. He bought some flesh colored” ointment, only to find it was for the wrong colored flesh. Undaunted, he mixed It with some soy sauce and went merrily on Ills way, flies and all. Cosby’s ability to find the humor In everyday life and turn it Into stories which relate and bring laughter to people has made him one of the most respected comedians In the country. 29 What are your philosophies on the future of the world within the next century? I—I I Statement by Dr. Burr At my ease, listening to Richard Strauss’s tone poem inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche's ALSO SPRACH ZARA-THUSTRA, quaffing genuine Pilsnor with body like liquid sunshine and with foam like whipped cream, I feel In the mood to prophesy, to try to outguess the future. As far as the immediate tomorrows of the next ten to thirty years are concerned, I expect no significant change in the management of human affairs from the way it is carried on at present, indeed from the way it has been conducted at least since the days of Cog and Magog. That is to say, human life will generally continue to be a god-awful mess. Whatever gods there may be will persist in their questionable taste for Schadenfreude by sneaking banana peels under the devotees who, in turn, will continue to have faith in those who always have fooled them in the past. Many human beings will continue to live absurdly and die insanely, polntlessly, to further tawdry causes. Rational government still will elude men. That most degrading and destructive of contemporary superstitions, nationalism or the delusion that one’s own way of life is superior to all other ways, will go hagrldlng the race. Although in three years we will celebrate the bicentennial of our independence from England, we will go on being psychologically and culturally subservient to the mother country, willing to rush to rescue again as we did twice in this century through horning into war by tactics that would have shamed a gangster. Probably we will fight another war like the Korean and Vietnamese ones in defense of our empire acquired during - What are your philosophies on the future of the world within the next century? Statement by Dr. Bense It is difficult for me to see the present as anything other than a period of darkness and gloom. And yet, as something of a student of history, lam inclined to think that the present is dark only in comparison to what might be-in terms of unrealized possibilities that lie so closely at hand-rather than in comparison to what has actually been in the past. I am not thinking primarily of material progress, which is undeniable but has also had its price. But I am inclined to think that even in terms of moral and religious conscious-ness-which I think has to be used as the standard of true progress-we are farther along than many of us realize. Wrongs that have gone virtually unnoticed throughout history are being noticed today, and some steps are being taken towards their correction. What I see going on today is a kind of struggle between those who assume that the world generally, and human nature in particular, remains pretty much the same from generation to generation, and those who take freedom and responsibility seriously. The former tend to argue that to be human means to strike a balance between totalitarianism (rules) and anarchy (freedom), and the result tends to be a fairly generous mixture of both. The latter group, on the other hand, tends to see freedom and responsibility as two sides of the same coin: freedom is NOT anarchy, and responsibility is NOT following rules. Responsible freedom is what this group sees as the goal of human progress, or of the whole evolutionary process, and accordingly tries to more in this direction. I personally think that unless the evolutionary process has some sort of spiritual goal it is hard for human beings to comprehend it. I am inclined to agree with Hegel and Teilhard de Chardin in their general vision of the present and after World War n, and, like the English, hang on grimly until finally we are kicked out. I do not anticipate a nuclear war In the next decade or so because such a global holocaust would be likely to Incinerate the great leaders In Washington, Moscow, and othor locales and not merely the poor slaves they conscript to do the fighting and dying for them. America will remain a nation of pushers and yearners whore, say, an undertaker, weary of pickling Optimists and Kotarians, rechrlstcns himself “mortician, forms associations with his follows, attends meetings, and gravely considers requiring a university degree for the granting of a license. 1 do not repine at this prospect. Being truly post-Darwinian In outlook I garner long range hope and consolation from viewing myself and my fellows as big monkeys. Man still has a long way to go; he has Just gotten started. He may make something of himself yet. More, man draws ever closer, however slowly and painfully, to gaining control over not only his cultural but also his biological evolution. He need not remain the biological botch he Is at present. I am sure any member of the Biology Department could suggest improvements In his skeleton and In the arrangement of his viscera for an upright posture. Perhaps on some more distant and glorious tomorrow, man finally will succeed In making his brain stronger than his muscles and In wisely restricting his secretion of adrenalin. Indeed, UW-O Is engaged in one grand project of rectifying God’s errors of omission and comission: Philosophy teaching man to think better, Art to see hotter, Music to hear better, Speech to talk better, English and Journalism to write better, Foreign Language and Audio-Visual augmenting all the others, the Social Sciences teaching man to organize his collective life better, ana tlie Natural Sciences strengthening the human raw material. I enjoy being part of this noble and holy work. continued on page 32 Dr. John Burr and the future. What bothers me most about the present Is the anti-intellectual ism I see rampant not only among the admittedly Ignorant but also among those supposedly highly educated. For too long, to be sure, the Intellect has been forced to be the servant of materialism. But long abuse should not prevent proper use. I think our individual and collective self-understanding needs to be thoroughly reformed and I don’t see how except by a more searching use of the Intellect. When It comes, such a reform would constitute a new stage In man’s religious development, comparable tothe leapfrom primitive to archaic religion or from archaic to historical religion. Joachim of Fiore, the medieval abbot from Southern Italy, foresaw such a now Ago of the Spirit, which he thought would follow the present Age of the Son (Jesus Christ) and the past Age of the Father. This new Age has been identified at various times with the Franciscan movement, the Renaissance, the Reformation, the Radical Reformation, and the Enlightenment. Why not with the Age of Aquarius, which Is supposedly now dawning? Though an Aquarian myself (born February 17), I still find a source In the Kingdom of God viewed as a present, mysterious reality that continues to grow until It has filled the whole earth and every enemy (Including death) has been made a footstool for Christ’s feet. Nebuchandnezzar’s Dream, recorded In the Biblical book of Daniel, suggests that in the daysofthe Fourth World Monarchy (the Roman Empire) a Fifth Monarchy should be set up, divine In origin and wholly unlike the other four, a kingdom that “shall stand forever” and “shall never bo destroyed.” Ithinkthis kingdom of God and of Christ, of the Spirit and of responsible freedom, Is here now and will ultimately prevail against ignorance, fear, superstition, totalitarianism, anarchy, poverty, sickness, and death. What counts, I think. Is to receive this faith and then to do something to Implement it. continued on page 32 Dr. Walter Bense 31 continued from page 31 Tike American philosopher John Dewey confessed that once as a young man he was overwhelmed by the conviction that what was here was here and that all one had to do was lie down on top of it. He declared that he never worried from that moment on, that at that instant he got religion; for freedom from worry was the essence of religious attitude. Complacency Is perhaps my outstanding moral characteristic. I conclude that my outlook toward the future near and far is a religious one, as well as a philosophic one. Response by Dr. Bense As usual, I find it so hard to disagree with Professor Burr that I am reduced to nit-picking. Beer generally reminds me less of liquid sunshine than of a certain kind of natural waste produced by men and animals alike; its foam strikes me as equally evanescent, and wholly unlike the more palatable, more nutritious, and more lasting gift of the dairy cow. I am delighted, of course, to realize that the distinguished chairman of the Philosophy Department is also “religious,” and that he sees himself as engaged in a “noble and holy work.” He is both, of course. But what he is not, and cannot possibly be, is a prophet. There have been all kinds of prophets: writing prophets, ecstatic prophets, mad prophets, and a great many false prophets, among others. But though Professor Burr writes lucidly and gracefully, I don’t believe he is either ecstatic or mad. Ho is not oven false, for the false prophets of Israel were those who prophesied success to evildoers, who spoke peace when there was no peace, and who told “everyone who stubbornly follows his own heart, “No evil shall come upon you.’ ” (Jeremiah 23:17) Now Professor Burr is well aware that evil has come upon us, or rather has been upon us all along. His portrait of the human race is not exactly flattering, though not Indefensibly bleak, either. What keeps him from being a prophet is that though he realizes the possibility and desirability of progress, he remains complacent, even while anticipating that man will make little of himself and his opportunities. Never has there been a complacent prophet who saw and acknowledged the ills that beset his people. False prophets close their eyes to these ills. True prophets point them out and call upon people to reform them. Only a philosopher, it seems, can see the ills and remain complacent. But while we can learn much from many philosophers, even from John Dewey, I really wonder whether we should adopt Dewey’s conception of religion. To be sure, Norman Vincent Peale’s PEACE OF MIND has been followed by Bishop Fulton J. Sheen’s PEACE OF SOUL and then by Billy Graham’s PEACE WITH GOD; these titles tend to bear out Dewey’s view. But prophetic faith, and I think Biblical faith generally, is different: “The Lord has a controversy with his people,” is a theme that recurs again and again. Jesus reportedly said that “From the day's of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has been coming violently and men of violence take it by force.” (Matthew 11:12) What I think this means is that we are to love God not only with all our heart, soul, and mind, but also with our strength; in other words, actively, by putting forth effort. Paul asked, “But how shall they go forth unless they be sent?” I ask: “ How shall they put forth if they be complacent?” Response by Dr. Burr In his statement Professor Bense avows his belief that the present is but the “darkness before the dawn.” I haw my doubts about his characterization of our present situation but I find his statement dark enough. It is extremely difficult for me to discern Just what his rewla-tion means. Therefore, I shall attempt to provide the dawn-or at least turn on a few lights to dispel the “gathering gloom.” I cannot clearly make out from his statement whether or not Professor Bense views the future establishment of what he calls “this kingdom of God and of Christ, of tike Spirit and of responsible freedom” as inevitable. In one place he speaks of this kingdom as “here now” and thinks it “will ultimately prevail” and so implies its coming is inevitable. Yet at the close of his statement he urges us to “do something to help implement it” and so implies its adwnt is not inevitable. How can one help the inevitable? Does Professor Bense hold that man is free to delay or ewn prevent the coming of the “kingdom of God and of Christ?” Can man thwart God? Or does God’ thwart man? If the former, God is not free; if the latter, man is not free. Or does Professor Bense mean God and man thwart each other and so neither is free? In summary, any goal of history or the evolutionary hypothesis, however spiritual that consummation may be, not selected by man and unalterable by him, is incompatible with human freedom. Nor can this inconsistency be owreome by some Pickwickian definition of “freedom” as “consciousness of necessity”-Le., “freedom” is the “awareness that one is not free.” Nor do obscure and owrly broad negative definitions of “freedom” as “NOT anarchy” and “NOT following rules” shed light anymore than being told “virtue” is “NOT vice” and “NOT license” further brighten matters for us. To see more distinctly let us examine the matter from God’s point of view instead of man’s for the moment. Can God delay or prewnt the establishment of the “kingdom of God and of Christ”? If he cannot, then God can only helplessly, passiwly contemplate what MUST happen. He is as subject to necessity as we are told Zeus and the other ancient gods were to Destiny. Howewr, if the coming of the “kingdom” is under God’s control, why does he allow us to linger in darkness, why does He hold back the dawn and permit the gloom to gather about us? More, if God can prewnt the coming of the “kingdom, might He not forestall its arrival forewr? What He can do. He might do. What, then, becomes of the certitude of faith in its coming? Does it not dwindle to a mere perhaps, a guess? The source of all these perplexities lies in Professor Bense’s impossible and therefore hopeless attempt to combine the modern evolutionary outlook and its dynamic uniwrse ewr changing at varying rates in all its parts with fixed, unchanging goals, eternal beings, kingdoms that “shall stand forewr” and “shall never be destroyed.” The conception of history moving toward a single, predetermined end is a remnant of the old philosophy that ewrything has an inherent, set purpose or end, from fire naturally tending upward to children being the only proper and natural goal of human sexuality. Professor Bense vainly strlws to combine an ontology of Being with one of Becoming with the usual result that either permanence or change turns out to be illusory. Maintaining change is real and not real, that ewrything changes and yet some things do not ensnare him in inconsistencies. He either should totally reject the contemporary evolutionary view of man and the uniwrse and Join the Fundamentalists; or else he should admit that man is really free to experiment, free to decide what the goals of human history should be and free to change them when he sees fit with neither success nor failure guaranteed in advance. Man now pretty well understands his inorganic origin, his hesitant and partial emergence from primeval darkness, and glimpses his approaching mastery of his cultural and biological evolution. This is the real dawn. I urge Professor Bense to fully face it.

Karl’s father taught him the trade of shoe repair. With Bruce Baker as a partner, they looked for a place to start their business. They eventually found and bought a store. Since starting the business at 633 N. Main Street, a year and a half ago, it has continued to expand. Tom Witte, from a local leather shop, Joined the business soon after it opened, and the shoe repair store began manufacturing leather goods, too. Baker and Witte both pride themselves in the hand-tooled work they do. Both say that they never duplicate any of their work. A pattorn may be similar but you can never get the pressure on the tool the same way a second time,” Baker said. “It's like a painter-he can never exactly duplicate a painting. Part of your personality is reflected in each piece of work, whether it’s a belt, purse, wallet or whatever,” he added. 34 n t Lemmens explained what he thought the future of shoe repairs. In general, was: “Most people think they are on the way out. With the advent of the cheap plastic shoe, people think It’s cheaper to buy a new pair of shoes than to get them fixed. People don’t realize that plastic shoes can’t be repaired. It’s actually cheaper to buy a good pair of shoes to begin with, and pay a little more for them, than to continually throw out cheap pairs. A good pair of shoes can be repaired three or four times. People think there will soon be no one left to fix shoes or leather goods because every time they go Into a shoe repair store, It's a dingy place with some old man bent over a bench hammering away. In one sense It Is true because there are very few young people getting Into It anymore.” Baker and Witte added to Lemmens’ statement: “Leather Is one of the oldest materials known to man. The trend seems to be back toward older things, to a nostalgia kick. People seem to get some sort of aesthetic value out of leather; they are becoming more aware that, even though It may cost more, It’s woll worth It because of Its looks and durability. Peoples' tastes are becoming more refined and are getting away from machine stamped goods. They are beginning to appreciate the look and feel of something well made.” Quiver photos a mi text by mi fee shores 35 There are currently 120 International students enrolled at UW-O, 70 of whom are from Hong Kong. The other 50 come from widely scattered areas In the world. Among the countries represented are: Canada, The Peoples Republic of China, Columbia, Costa Rica, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guyana, India, Indonesia, Iran, Ireland, Jamaica, Japan, Kenya, Korea, Libya, Nigeria, Okinawa, Panama, Pttf-u, the Phlllipines, Singapore, Somalia, Swaziland, Taiwan, Thailand and Trinidad. Twenty of the students are In graduate school. In an effort to discover their Impressions about the United States and to gain some Insights as to how they perceive Americans, an Informal survey was recently undertaken among them. The 13-polnt questionnaire centered around the things that they like and dislike most about the United States, the differences In the cultural outlook of Americans as compared with their own, and comments about the social life In Oshkosh. Since less than 50 per cent of the students responded to the survey, the findings presented cannot be considered difinitive. Yet the answers were sufficiently consistent to advance some tentative generalizations about how the foreign student views America. Most of the students agreed that the most frequont question asked of them Is “Whatever made you decide to come to Oshkosh, of all places?” The answer of course varies from Individual to individual but basically most International students heard about Oshkosh either through a friend or relative already here, through recommendation from a high school counselor or through being referred to Oshkosh from another campus. The next two most frequently asked questions were “How do you like the United States?” and “Where are you from?” The three things cltod by the students that they miss from their native country were family and friends, native food, and their own social life and culture. Somo students felt that life In the United States was “too expensive,” while others commented that they really miss speaking their native language. Several students from Asia mentioned a “respect for elders” which they find lacking In tho U.S. Among some of the other things cited were “the warm climate,” “politeness and friendliness,” “the sea,” “lolsuro,” “the celebration of festive days,” “native music,” and “soccer.” One nursing major from Hong Kong said she missed having household servants. So much for tho affluent society! When asked to list three things that impress them the most about the United States, most of the students cited the advanced technology, the friendliness and hospitality of the people, and surprisingly enough, the ecology and landscape. Frequently cited were “freedom of choice and of speech,” “educational facilities and resources,” “carefree lifestyle, “television,” “open-mindedness of the young people,” “the social life and recreation,” “frankness of the people,” and the “Importance of time,” or as one student described It, “the speedy life stylo.” Incidentally, a very high percentage of the students appoar to be highly impressed with something most Americans take for granted--tho efficient highway system. Most of them agree that the United States has what Is probably the most advanced network of highway communication in the world. Also mentioned wore “the carefree attitude towards sex,” the fact that people “mind their own business,” “freedom from strikes,” and the “prosperity of most Americans.” Incredible as It might appear to somo, “the cold weather” and “government efficiency” were also mentioned. An overwhelming majority of those questioned felt that rac ism, ethnocentr Ism and dlscr Im inatlon against foreigners and non-whites were the most negative features they have found In the United States. Prominently cited among the 36 Foreign students view their stay in America ...... other things they dislike were “the materialism and money-madness of the people,” “the high tax and insurance rates,” “Inadequacy of the city transportation,” “the superficiality of the people,” “poor family relations,” “ignorance about foreign countries and foreigners In genoral,” “the limited contact between neighbors,” the fact that “people are Judged by the amount of property they possess,” and “those stupid commercials on T.V.” Once again the Aslans consistently mentioned the 4-Indifference to the aged” as something that bothered them the most. A few students thought that UW-O students were “excessive drinkers,” that they “exaggerated the generation gap” and that ‘‘they complained too damn much.” Over 95% of those responding to tlio survey felt that their personal attitudes had undergone some change slnco coming to the United States. Oily two found that the acadomlc program at UW G did not meet with their expectations. One of the latter claimed that “except for a few courses taught by very few lectures,” he was very disappointed. When asked what he thought could for 1973-74 yearbook We need: Writers Typesetters Production Artists For information call -Quiver office at 424 -1152 bo done to Improve the curriculum he said, “Scrap the Economics Department and build a Human Relations Department.” A few other students had these suggestions: “provide a special English courso for foreign students,” “expand the engineering and medical field,” and “add more chemistry courses.” An overwhelming majority of the students, when asked “Generally speaking how have you been treated by most North Americans?” responded favorably. Only four had anything negative to say. One of these said he lad been treated “like an Inhuman,” and another asserted, “It Is easy to break the ice, but difficult to be really close hearty friends.” This latter point was raised several times. Americans, they feel, do not place great value on loyalty and true friendship. On the whole, however, most of them felt that they have boen warmly received and very well treated. Comments on the differences found among American men and women as compared to those from their own countries provided some of the most extensive and colorful replies. The most consistent finding In the survey was that American women are far more liberal In their outlook toward sex and morality. Not one single foreign student thought that American men were more liberal In their attitudes toward sex than the women. In fact, some even felt that the women we becoming “too 11-oerated” and “too aggressive.” Most American women were described as “open-minded,” “adventurous,” “friendly,” “outspoken,” “talkative,” and “easy to acquaint.” Most of the men were described as being “shy,” “Individualistic,” “more tense In sex,” “selfish,” more reserved,” “car mad,” “football nuts,” and manifesting traits of “Hitlerism and Archie Bunker-Ism.” Not all agreed that the more liberal orientation of American women Is a healthy trend. Asserted one studont from Africa, “American women have no respect for their husbands.” Another student from Trinidad claimed that American women “are Just plain crazy.” A distinct majority felt that courtship patterns are radically different from those In their native countries. Among some of their observations are that “dating begins at an earlier age,” “young peoples’ attitudes are more free,” “they marry sooner,” “relationships are not taken too seriously,” “the average person does not go through so many partners,” “people tend to bo moro solemn about the Institution of marriage,” and “the divorce rate Is not as high—we take marriage serious.” Most, however, expressed satisfaction with the social life In Oshk06h. It may be of Interest to the International Relations Department to know that not one single foreign student thought that Americans were knowledgeable about their country. Most oithcr claimed that the people they came In contact with know absolutely nothing or very little. What many International students find very shocking Is that most UW-O students do not have the vaguest notion where to locate their native countries on a map. Finally, the foreigners were asked If they could reside In the United States permanently without having to make any major personal adjustments. Responses to this question broke fairly even. Fifty-five per cent responded “no” and fourty-flve per cent said “yes,” with one student expressing “no comment.” 37 Scuba divers explore inner space by sally graves With the new recreation push for untouched land to explore, the woods should be crawling with backpackers, hikers and canoers this summer. One of live few remaining places to go in order to get away from it all” is underwater. After submerging there aro many possibilities for adventure. Wreck diving, spearfishing, and photography are among the many hobbies which one can pick up in the lakes, rivers and oceans of the world. But the first step toward exploring “inner space” is learning basic diving skills. Seaway School of Diving, Keenah, Wisconsin, offers a basic diving course as well as a Senior Diver program. With summer on its way, many students from the university, as well as community people of all ages are enrolled in these diving courses. Seaway's Basic Diving course meets once a week for seven weeks at the YMCA. A lecturo session is followed by underwater exploration of the bottom of the YMCA pool. Skills such as buddy breathing, mask and snorkel clearing, and basic uso of scuba equipment are learned during pool sessions. At the end of the program, studonts are given an open water check-out dive in an area lake, a wrltton test and equipment counselling. If the student passes the requirements in these categories, he receives National AssoclatlonofScuba Diving Schools certification. Upon completion of the basic program some students will go on to the open water Senior Diver program. At this point you may be thinking of renting some equipment and trying diving on your own. Scuba diving can be safe and enjoyable, but only if the diver knows what he’s doing. Most scuba shops won't rent equipment to a person, or give him air for his tanks, unless that person is a certified diver. If you think scuba diving sounds like fun, check into lessons. Seaway has classes throughout the year, as do many scuba shops. The university also offers a scuba course. If you haven't had lessons you may find your so If with all of the equipment and nowhere to go. Once a person is certified there are an incredible number of places to go right here in Wisconsin. The Great Lakes are popular diving areas with their thousands of underwater ship wrecks. Many divers explore Red Granite, Green Lake and Green Bay. And of course, there are always the green waters of Lake Winnebago to explore. Many of the small lakes In northern Wisconsin have probably never been explored. Scuba diving isn’t limited to warm summer days either. When winter comes, many Wisconsin divers Just cut a hole In the ice to explore the state's waters at their clearest. r r • SO YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED!

Cindy will be teaching physical education when she graduates In May.) I chose to come to UW-O not only because of Its close proximity to my home town, or because of Its popularity, but because of its program In Physical Education. The staff, facilities, and curriculum content combine to make the program one of the best in the state. Opportunities for educational achievement, as well as social involvement, are unlimited here at UW-O.

He will graduate in May with a degree in Microbiology, and plans on going to graduate school.) When I graduated from Oshkosh High School I had already decided to go to UW-O because it was economical to live at home, and UW-O was one of the few schools that offered an undergraduate degree in Micro- biology. After my freshman year here I had great aspirations of knowledge and expertise as a biologist, but then came my sophomore year and my first Microbiology course-general Bacteriology-what a disaster! If I learned one important thing from that course it was that the average person is very Ignorant of even the basic facts about the microbial world even though they have a very profound effect upon our whole environment. This year 1 decided to take a senior special problems course. The project I got involved in was to isolate and identify the bacterial contaminants of bluegreen algae cultures. This seemed very simple at first, but my luck ran out when the organisms became very uncooperative. The first semester ended with five isolated organisms and only two of them tentatively identified. This semester started out with a bang when all of my cultures from last semester were accidentally thrown out. So I had to start over from scratch. By the end 40 Dave Nobbe stand what I wanted out of school. Being In the School of Business became an education, not just in the classroom, but alsolnoxperlenclngsltuations with both students and faculty. Student involvement and club activities became a vital part of my curriculum. Now it s my last semester and like everybody else I’m looking forward to graduation. Looking back I think about all the friends I’ve met, the business faculty I’ve worked with, and the club activities. Yet I know the friends I’ve met and the experiences I’ve had won’t end at graduation. Because if I’ve learned one thing at UW-O it’s that college isn’t a four year institutlon-lt’s a lifetime of experience. Dave Nobbe A major accomplishment of my education has been developing a professional attitude to take with me when I leave. It’s very easy to go through a daily routine of classes, eating, studying, drinking, etc. Like many students 1 became frustrated with a boring routine and was quite disenchanted with school. By my Junior year I had decided that I should either put out a little more effort or get out and find something more meaningful. For me that meant dividing my time between meaningful studying to make my major seem mor e relevent, and getting involved in outside activities that took my mind off school. I was working with the Chamber of Commerce in Neenah-Menasha as a student intern of the school of Business, and I was able to get involved in community activities and meet a lot of people. Eventually I was a committee member studying the consolidation of Neenah and Men-asha. There again I was able to get involved in a thought process and discussion of varied opinions. Another accomplishment was to give a talk on taxos to local Hotary and Kiwanis cllbs. Activities such as those called upon my own resourcefulness as well as contact with my professors on something more than a classroom level. I feel that I have matured and developed a substantial degree of poise, thanks primarily to the varied accomodations in which I have lived in the last four years-tn my freshman year the dorm, my sophomore year a fraternity house, and my last two years an apartment. The major contribution of this variety of habitats has been to help me see the whole picture. Even if I had a bad day there is someone who had a worse one. And someone is always doing something to upset someone else. It doesn’t take long to realize that you can’t always have your own way and should Just make the most of the situation. My final conclusion is that students (and society in general) are generally apathetic and get involved in emotional issues, but won’t take the time to become acquainted with facts and practical alternatives. Prime examples were McGovern vs. Nixon or Flintrop vs. Guiles, but how many people really care about county executives common councils? We aren’t willing to take time to get involved. Today's society offers too much for us to do in our leisure time. I think we owe to ourselves, or at least I owe it to myself, to ask where we are headed, what the obstacles are, and what it will take to overcome those obstacles? In the end, it takes the knowledge of yourself to make your own breaks, and knowing when and how to get in-volved-for mo I think it took being a student here at Oshkosh. of the semester I hope to havo the majority of the bacteria identified. This course has been an Invaluable help to me as a microbiologist. It is one of the few courses in which practical application of one's major can be used to solve a problem instead of just cook-booking his way through it. If there is one thought or idea that I have come out of this university with it is how much more there is for me to learn and comprehend throughout the rest of my life. In these four years I have barely scratched the surface of my learning capacity and interests. Kathy Hein (Kathy Hein is president of Women in Business; member of the University Business Club, Pi Sigma Epsilon, Accounting Club, and is on the School of Business Advisory Council. She has a Marketing major and is now looking for a position in public relations.) Remember when you were a freshman? Can you recall some of the things you did? Like walking into the Titan room and feeling like the whole world was staring at you-somehow the other students know that you had never been there before, and you tried so hard to be inconspicuous. The freshman memory that is sharpest in my mind is the night before my very first class. I checked out every classroom from Clow to Halsey Just to make sure that I'd go to the right room the next morning. That morning, like manyfreshmen, I walked into the wrong class anyway. I had many new experiences as a sophomore; I was the only girl out of 40 students in my Economics class and I found out that Accounting isn't the glorified bookkeeping that I thought it was. Junior year came and I had a career in mind. I actually started to under- 41 than a number or name. I learned to interact more and to not feel so self-conscious about coming out of my “freshman-like shell.” I was taught to experience myself and other people. This is what my education is-the interaction of thoughts-not Just the thoughts themselves. Now I know why I cut Intro, to Sociology, saw some value in Dr. Black’s General Psychology course and enjoyed English Composition. I am now beginning to appreciate more my role at Oshkosh because the university showed me different alternatives that I could choose. I could have chosen to go to “Brother's” rather than a play or Bergman film study, or to go home on a weekend rather than experience a “Pan Y Vino.” The university, in all its bureaucracy and minor league politics, showed me how insignificant I could be, BUT it Sue Kostchicha (Singing the alto solo in the Messiah, being a member of the Opera Theatre, Chamber Choir, and music organization SMENC are some of the things Sue has done while at UW-O. A music teaching career is ahead for Sue when she graduates in May.) My four years of being a Music Education major have convinced me that UW-0 provides one of the best music curriculums. Working toward a vocal music education degree I have been associated with many members of the music faculty. My most extensive association has been with my voice instructor, Suzanne Roy, who is a very capable and devoted teacher. I have found that she and the other members of the music faculty are understanding and are truly concerned about their students. When graduation day was too far away to think about, I wished that it would be tomorrow. Now that it is days away. I'm sad to see it all end. There are hundreds of things, both tangible and intangible, that will be left behind after college days are all over. As a music major you not only gain many friends who are students, but you also come to know most of the faculty members. I think that I will miss working with them almost as much as I will miss being with my roommates and other friends. After reflecting upon the last four years, I want to look ahead to what will happen after graduation. I am hoping to obtain a music teaching position next fall. I think I have been well prepared to teach music and I am quite determined to prove it. Graduation day will surely be a time of mixed emotions. It will be sadtoend college life, but I am happy that I have been well prepared to face whatever lies beyond graduation. Rob Coulter When recalling my more meaningful, fulfilling and educational encounters experienced during my four years here, I immediately thought of my major field of study, the “party-like experiences,” my fraternity, and many other tangible things. I began writing ami described all those memorable experiences like the Algoma Street Incident of 1969, chemistry problem hours, hell week, sailing club etc., from my freshman year up to the present. When the paragraph was completed I read the words again and felt that there was something missing-something that overshadowed all those “tangible objects.” The key word I was looking for was FE LT. Sure I accomplished all of those memorable things, but it has become more meaningful for me to reflect on those FEELINGS that I had concerning those events. Again, the word feeling is what I value most. I feel that the university, as cold and unsympathetic an institution as it may seem, gave me a direction and provided me with the insight to see that FEELING something about what I was doing was just as important as DOING that thing. The doing portion was provided by the requirements of my major. The feeling portion was made accessible to mo through the Free University classes, after class meetings with my Instructors to let them know that I’m alive, O.S.A. concerts, guest speakers and many other things. It is not the academic part of school that I will miss as much as sailing on Lake Winnebago, getting into Luther Allison, experiencing China Night, or a faculty recital. I appreciate most what I’ve learned from the idea of the Free University, and more specifically, transitional analysis sessions. It made me feel like more R)b Coulter also, directly or indirectly, provided alternatives so that I could see that I'm as small as I let myself be. What I got out of this place academically or culturally shows me that this system Is a PROCESS, not a PRODUCT. Dempsey Hall might be termed a product and the counseling center a process. My four years here have taught me that a process is more important than a product, n x . • 42 JEAN C. LENIUS - English; Oshkosh. CYNTHIA S. LENZ - Upper ElementaryEducation; Milwaukee. LINDA A.
