4 4 THE COLLEGE NEWS Vol. Lill, No. 10 BRYN MAWR, PA. © Trustees of Bryn Mawr College, 1967 25 Cents Avignon, Madrid Programs Offer Expanded Curricula Again this year, Bryn Mawr College in miniature will move to Europe for the summer study pro- grams, Centro de Estudios His- panicos en Madrid, June 22-Aug. 13, and Institut d’Etudes Fran- caises d’Avignon, June 14 - July 27. , Under the auspices of Bryn Mawr College, both programs are in- tensely academic and designed for selected undergraduate and grad- uate students-with serious inter- est in the language, literature and civilization of the réspective countries. The faculties of both the Centro and the Institut include professors from colleges and universities of the United States and Europe who are acquainted with lecture - dis- cussion techniques and the stand- ards of American higher education. The Centro, directed by Phyllis Turnbull, assistant professor of Spanish and adviser, to foreign students, will offer courses in Spanish stylistics, literature, eco- nomics, art, philosophy and re- search methods. One of the most important fea- tures of the Centro is the direct ‘contact the students experience * with major personalities in fields such as art, music, literature, eco- nomics and.jaw, both on campus and during visits to spots of out- standing cultural significance such as the Prado, the Museum ofMod- ern Art and Toledo. ‘s A major innovation in the 1968 curriculum will be a course offer- ing a six-week series featuring two novelists, two poets and two dra- matists who will discuss the tech- niques, construction, inspiration and reasoning involved in their own works. Students will select two of the authors and write a term paper with the aid of the authors New Left Critic Speaks to BMC Arthur Waskow, journalist, «ritic and spokesman for the New Left, will spend Thursday, Dec- ember 7, at Bryn Mawr in an effort to acquaint. the students with the policies of the New Left and the attempts to form a co- hesive organization out of this political movement. Mr.. Waskow will. speak both to a Senior Po- litical Science CompC onference in the afternoon and at an open meeting at 7:30 in the living room in Erdman, under the auspices of Alliance. Mr. Waskow has written many books, including FROM RACE RIOT TO SIT-IN; he has contri- buted to the LIBERAL PAPERS, a collection of essays on the new politics; and has published a series of articles for THE NEW YORKER, He is a fellow for the Institute of Policy Studies and was one of the first New Leftists to become involved in the effort to create a viable leftist movement to work with the Black Power movement. The National C onference for New Politics, with which Mr. ‘Waskow is affiliated, is attempting to de- — velop a national co-ordinating organization for the anti-war and civil rights-Black Power move- ments. The purpose of the New Left, according to New Politics (Continued on page 4) themselves. “ Directed by Michel Guggenheim, chairman of the French depart- ment, the Institut will offer gen- eral and advanced ‘courses in French language, literature, his- tory and sociology. The curricu- lum is designed to provide definite ‘progress in fluency, comprehen- sion and writing and to establish an understanding of modern France and an appreciation of French culture. - New courses for the 1968 Institut include ‘*Problemes de Struc- ture Sociale Francaise,’’ ‘‘Le Sur- realisme’’ and ‘‘La Nouvelle Cri- tique.’?’ In both programs students will live with families to provide the best basis for developing language fluency and an understanding ofthe country’s life and customs. Admission is open to any college student with high academic stand- ing and the equivalent of three years of college Spanish or French. The co-ed programs are designed as serious intellectual exper- iences, not summer vacations. Additional information can be obtained by contacting the director of the respective program. Appli- cations must be submitted by March 1, 1968. Frosh Choose Eros As Class President The class of ’71 became full- fledged members of the college community on November 20, when they elected officers for the re- remainder of the academic year. Freshman president is Jean Eros, succeeding herself as temporary president. Laura Hershey was voted vice-president, and Deborah Swirsky, secretary. Setting a precedent for future freshman elections, the office- seekers met their electorate in a round of after-dinner dis- cussions. The girls were not permitted to campaign in any way; there were no speeches of qualif- ication nor any ‘traditional plat- forms. The purpose of the visits was simply to acquaint the class with their candidates.

Resistance Week Hits Philadelphia; Confrontation of Draft,War to Occur There has been peace work carried on this fall by various groups, based in neighborhoods and on campuses in the Phila- ‘delphia area. Resistance to ’ the wor and the draft will be spotlighted and unified ona city-wide basis next week, which has been designated Resistance Week all over the country. ‘ On Monday, December 4th, young men from Philadelphia will return’ their draft cards at 8 p.m, in the Germantown Community Presby- terian Church at Greene and Tul- pehocken Streets, The evening will take the form of a Quaker meet- ing, with those turning in their cards and those present speaking when they feel moved, Bryn Mawr will mail its support statement for draft resistance to the U.S, Attorney General at this time, Wednesday, December 6th, at 6:30 a.m, tifere will be a dem- onstration at the induction center at 401 North Broad Street.

The upcoming week will be a coming together of the widely dif- ferent groups -- high school and college students, professors, cler- gy, Graft counsellors and draft resistors, and women for peace among others -- who oppose the draft and the war which the draft supplies today. But Resistance Week is meant to be more than just a statement of opposition, The turning in of draft cards and the possible acts of civil disobedience at the in- duction center are illegal acts of resistance, They show a break with the Selective Service System and the U,S, government’s policy in Vietnam, and a turning towards alternatives to that system and that policy, The confrontation of the draft and the, war which make up Re- sistance Week will not accom- plish a change in the. attitudes and actions of the United States, But for those who participate in or support acts of resistance, a seriousness in and a commitment to the peace movement may be generated, And in communicating the decision to resist unjust pol- icies and institutions to those who do not support the war, but who have been told that they have no choice but to fight it, the con- frontation may build a confidence in others to resist.

Craig said the thesis of the Giraudoux comedy is “the way to get ahead in the world for women is to tell men they are handsome because all men are vain.

Many members of both the student body and the admin- istration are fond of reciting the well-known rhetoric extolling the advantages of a small college: itisareal community, everyone cares what everyone else is doing, people know each other, we all live and work together on projects of mutual interest, ad nauseam, A question now has arisen about the validity of that description of Bryn Mawr. Ironically, it has been raised by someone who is perhaps most involved with what many would say is the center of the Bryn Mawr community, the social and academic honor systems. The aliena tion and fragmentation she has found is very disturbing. Perhaps however, this. center is really empty: the reason for this alienation is that there actually is nothing meaningful and unique here for students to build a community around, Maybe many students do not care to make Bryn Mawr anything more than a series of classroom lectures that will be attended only when they do not conflict with more preferred activities, If this is true (and the NEWS is not now suggesting that it is) then there is no reason for Bryn Mawr tocontinue to frown on off-campus living. There is no reason to increase Undergrad dues for activities that no one is interested in participating in, let alone paying for. There is no reason to pretend that Bryn Mawr is a community. If, on the other hand, this is not the true situation, and there IS a core of mutual experiences (both in and outside class) that can be called Bryn Mawr, now is the time to find out why some students are not experiencing it, and feel alienated from it. The NEWS is not even sure that there is agreement on the value of having a Bryn Mawr community. Assuming, however, that there is such agreement, we would like to see some serious thinking, talking, and writing done on several related questions: one bo cesecece raeceaeaectaee l.Is rea comnrunity at Bryn Mawr? 2. If <’-re is, how can students who are now alienated from it be brought into it? 3. Uf there is not, how can one be developed? Iniquity Better late than never: Marriott is. at long last permitting charges at the College Inn, It is welcome news that the company has finally abandoned its farcical policy of ‘‘student protection” for a more real- istic system of student convenience, It would be gratifying, however, if the Inn were open on a regular basis for the students to enjoy their new liberty. Theoretically, it is; theoretically the Inn is student-run from 9:30 to 12 every weekday night, Yet never does the week go by that at least one student fails to appear, These girls are paid (and paid well: $2,50 an hour) simply to open. the building and serve food, When it does not suit them, they do not show up, This lack of responsibility is (a) annoying to thé other students, who are deprived of the Inn’s services. and (b) unfair to Marriott, which loses an evening’s business, Furthermore, when the College Inn is open, rarely is it run to anyone’s satisfaction, There is an incompleteness about the food served, One student, for example, ordered soup and asked for crackers with it -- not an outrageous demand, No, she was told, the crackers are downstairs in the storeroom. Why is the storeroom so inaccess- ible? If it is, why was the cracker supply not checked beforehand? Yet in spite of the fact that the Inn keeps irregular hours and is poorly run, it manages to have the highest prices around, A ‘‘Jumbo Cheeseburger”’ (in itself a misleading name, as there is no ‘‘Normal”’ or ‘*Mini’’ cheeseburger alternative) is 55¢. It is simply hamburger, cheese, and bread, At the Blu Comet, acheeseburger for 65¢ includes lettuce, tomatoes, onions, relish and french fried potatoes. Why should Marriott make a vast profit on the College Inn? It is enough that it makes a healthy sum on catering tothe dorms -- where the quality of food served often drives students to the Inn for sustenance, ‘Bryn Mawr students were presented with an all-new College Inn this fall, The decor sacrificed a degree of charm-.for gleaming K.B.. Viewpoint: § Alienation Plagues Campus In last year’s discussions about the proposed Self Gov constitu- . tional revisions, students support- ing change emphasized that re- strictions discourage the in- dividual questioning of values and ideas which leads to the estab- lishment of a viable individual ethical system. Only in the midst of such questioning can we main- tain a vigorous and dynamic com- munity, Certainly, an excess of rules is not conducive to an at- * mosphere in which individuals question and grow together. : Absence of Rules: However, the absence of rules does not in itself guarantee the | vigorous community we all en- visioned in our discussions last spring. The institution over the past few years of unlimited class cuts) driving privileges, and later hours s made it possible for students to spend an increasing part of their college life involved in activities outside of Bryn Mawr. Potentially, this situation has great value for Bryn’ Mawr,- for stu- dents. now have more to contribute to each other and to the group as a whole. I think, though, that the very reverse may be the result of the changes which have been taking place here over the past seven or eight years. The com- munity is: becoming increasingly fragmented. The rule changes have given us what might be called a nega- tive freedom, a liberation FROM restraint, but we have: not yet decided as a group what the posi- tive communal aspects of ‘this new freedom are to be. We know what we are free from having to do; we have not yet decided what we are free TO DO, what our responsibilities are to ourselves, to each other, and to Bryn Mawr. I do not mean to imply that a series of implicit regulations and duties should replace the former explicit ones, for it is impossi- ble to legislate a community into being. On an individual level, the pasis for this positive use of freedom is a constant searching -on the part of each student for the value system, the internal set of rules, which she believes to be that of a decent human being. The ‘responsibility of the group as a whole to each individual is to main- tain an atmosphere in which she may choose her values free of pressure from those around her. A positive communal use of free- . dom requires in addition a re- . sponsibility of each individual to the group. This requirement can © be met only when every student is concerned about what Bryn Mawr is to be. At present, no such concern exists. A majority of undergrad- uates feels, I believe, an aliena- tion from Bryn Mawr and a less- than-deep involvement in their academié and other occupations here. As a result, they seek mean- ing elsewhere, and feel little at- tachment to Bryn Mawr or re- sponsibility toward developing a real community here. If we are not to exploit the opportunities inherent in our living together as a group, the essence of Bryn Mawr as a residential college has little significance. Superficial Manifestations The Self Gov Boards, as_ they have been operating until now, have dealt chiefly with the super- ficial manifestations of this frag- mentation and dissatisfaction. We can deal with rulebreakers; we can worry. about excessive drug use. These problems are, how- ever, only symptoms of some- . « thing much more basic that is wrong. An individual who feels content and creative in his every- day life does nof need constantly to escape into a drug euphoria, and does not develop a psycholog- ical dependence on drugs. The Self Gov Boards this year have tried to include the student body as a whole in the Self Gov decision-making processes by holding open meetings on impor- tant questions and by printing ex- tensive discussions of policy in ‘the NEWS, If students believed that Letters to the Editor Tact of Course To the Editor: There is a way to criticize while being tactful. The course evaluation sheet seems to have been written in some places by people who do not know anything of these two qualities. In a num- ber of cases the compiled com- ments were vindictive and destruc- tive rather than constructive. I think that in some cases a eee ple most eager to respond were those who disliked the course the most and were eager to take crack shots at their ‘“tormenters.” In many instances the comments re- corded showed a complete lack of. humanity and feeling, even though the criticisms may be somewhat . valid. It is necessary to have some way of communicating student feel- ings about courses to the profes- sors, but it should not have to descend to the level af personal insults and disrespect.

Project FREE was founded two years ago, and is comprised of housewives, clergymen, college students, and businessmen, most of whom live along the Main Line. FREE is demanding that the board give equal service to all home-seekers, that it refuse to accept discriminatory listings, and that it co-operate with and share real estate commissions with non- discriminatory brokers. It is specifically demanding that the board Sead to meet the housing they had an important role in their. own government, we thought, they might feel less alienated from Bryn Mawr and find a construc- tive role to play within it.' Even if this effort on our part has had some success -- and EF am not at all sure this is so -- it is but a very small part of what needs to be done. If students are to feel them- selves a part of a community at Bryn Mawr, they must be able to find here meaningful endeavor which they share with.other mem- bers of the community. ‘Students seldom discuss academic mat- ters except the night before a test. Why is there such a current of anti-intellectualism? What changes could we make in the academic program at Bryn Mawr that would make students find more significance in what is, after all, the purpose of their presence here? Where is the new creative arts program for which money has been appropriated? Should we_ not examine again the reasons for the divorce of creative arts and~ academics? , Community Disintegration we are to discover the foun- dations of the disintegration of community at Bryn Mawr, we must ask sweeping questions about the nature and philosophy of the Col- lege, the student government, the faculty, and the students. Such questioning seems a beginning to the only constructive role possible in the face of what I see asa disintegration of the purpose of Bryn Mawr. Self Gov obviously cannot do all of this. The problems we see around us now cannot be dealt with by the legislative and judi- cial functions which Self Gov has performed in the past. I hope that. we can initiate the radical group self-examination which I see as necessary to an attempt to make Bryn Mavr have a significance as a community. Drewdie Gilpin President, Self Gov applebee have you:ever thought about dropping out? not out of school, not even out of life really, but just a sort of physical dropping out, becoming invisible so that you wouldn’t have to talk to peo- ple anymore but could keep on being around without anyone no- ticing you. just think of all the things you wouldn’t have to worry about if no one knew you were there: if you happened to wake up feeling like you’d spent the night beingdragged — over rocks, your best friend wouldn’t get insulted when you walked glassy-eyed past her in the hall without speaking. or if you. walked into a room full of people and sat down and started reading ‘*time*’? because you didn’t have anything particularly brilliant you wanted to say, no one would think you were being anti-social, or maybe you had just finished a rough. afternoon in the geology lab and what you really wanted to do was lie on your bed listening to sooth- ing stereo sounds -- and in walked lisa to tell you exactly why it was essential to her moral integrity to leave bryn mawr and join the coal miners in appalachia, you could keep on listening to your soothing stereo sounds until you | had recovered because of course how could she talk to you if you weren’t there (physically speaking i mean)? dropping out (for a week or so at a time) is probably the answer -to the world’s: problems. at least it is to mine. so if you miss my owl eyes in the dark, don’t get worried: .i’m still around (spir- itually speaking). — ; applebee 4 Friday, December 1, 1967 ) THE COLLEGE NEWS Page Three The Mohonk Consultations with 1. How are you to internationalize tiative to make approaches. International Students is over. I am happy to give you a report of the Consultation and the wonderful place where it was held. Mohonk Lake is the greatest thing that ever happened to life. To try to describe the beauty will need some poetry but I am not a poet. Maybe the best way to describe the environment is in the words of a colleague. ‘‘I am not sur- prised the United Nations never solves any problems. A man who has to go through the New York Subway system or breathe the life destroying air of New York should not be expected to solve any pro- blems. The only thing they need is to come to Mohonk ‘Lake watch the > beautiful scenery -- the lake, house, cliffs, mountains, stars, and all. of Nature at its glory -- then they can have the clear head neces- - sary for problem solving.’’ May I now call the attention of my readers to the word ‘‘Inter- national?” This means U.S, isalso included.

Pre-inductees who are coming for their physicals and inductees report to the induction center at 401 Broad Street every morning between seven and eight. The stu- dents who come to meet them join members of the Philadelphia Anti- Draft Union and help give out their leaflet to the boys as they go in. “you CAN keep this leaflet,’’ the leaflet begins reminding the inductees and pre-inductees that they are still civilians and pro- tected by civil law. The leaflet urges them not to sign away their rights and points out ways of de- laying induction which will give ithe pre-inductee or the inductee ‘time to seek legal aid and ad- vice, both of which are offered free by , the Philadelphia Anti- Draft Union. Alternatives to in- duction are presented: the four- teen categories of deferment, conscientious ob,ector status, go- ing to Canada, or refusal of in- duction.

A student could .be an aide to a state legislator, to a mayor, or to a county chair- man. ‘The Pennsylvania center for Education in Politics (PCEP) pro- poses to match salaries from leg- islators on a two-to-one basis; a full ten-week program would pay $750. Applications must be approved by Mr. Peter Bachrach and ‘must “be submitted jointly with the poli- tician with whom the student would serve. (The assumption of the carga program is that the t already has a partisan seep Maca thus, students should seek internships only with politicians whose partisan affili- ations they share). The deadline for applications is Feb. 15, 1968... Students may obtain necessary forms from Dr. Sidney Wise, Director, Pennsyl- vania Center for Education in Pol- itics, Franklin and Marshall Col- ancients Pa., 17604. _ Free Gift Wrapping Come to HELEN'S for gifts and jewelry _ Earrings, earrings. “the little shop with a big beart and small prices " Bryn Mawr Theater Arcade Students... ness. Technology is the measure of rate of progress used by develop- ing countries. However, before we made any further decisions to use industrialization as a primary means of change, we asked our- selves if the price we have to pay for industrialization is really worth it. : No conclusions were ever reached on this topic but weagreed that before one can be an effective agent of change, he has toconsider the level at which this change is: wanted, remember that people re- sist changes and so try to find a way to convince them that the change will be good. Then he will have to consider how to organize the people or the system to effect this change, An agent of change should con- sider a method which willfrustrate him the least. He should examine his political configuration, know his environment very well, should be willing to pay the price of the change he advocates, At this point I will end this re- port, but will not fail to mention that the above is my view of what I say our agreements were. I do not say that the above is what the ‘Mohonks official report will be. One thing we agreed on without reservations is that there is no- thing like a superior culture or superior society. While I hope you will think of the meaning of this statement, I wish to add that the developed world should never for- get that the developing world is just as important to it(the develop- ed world) as it thinks it is to the developing world.
