Dora Chizea, a junior from Nigeria, has been se- lected as one of about 30 foreign students to attend the Fifth Con- sultation with International Stu- dents which will be held at Lake Mohonk Mountain House in New Jersey during the holiday week- end. . The objectives of the. confer- ence are to provide a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere in which in- ternational students can share ex- periences and enjoy each others company, to encourage discus- sion on a free, non-structured basis, and to identify informa- tion which will be of value to students participating in future programs. Focusing on the theme of the international student’s lead- ership role in his own country and the world, participants will consult with resource’ persons about problems under consider- ation by the various committees. Mr. Noel J. Brown, Political Af- fairs Officer, Department of Po- litical and Security Council Af- fairs, United Nations Secretariat, will chair the discussions. In addition to the analytical focus of the conference, time will be set aside for recreation at the (Continued from page 4) cussion sessions. They were So general that any thinking person could have written conclusive es- says without having been within 300 miles of Biology Lecture Room on the past five Wednesdays. This seems to defeat the educa- tional purpose of the series. Not only was the exam unfair to the student (and there may have been just one such student) who attend- ed all the lectures and studied her notes¥for the test; but it also made it quite obvious that attendance at the lectures is in no way related to passing the exam. The vast majority of the stu- dents who took the exam had gone to two, one or none of the talks. That same vast majority will pass the test with flying colors. There were, however, 2 few mountain resort. This will in- clude an ‘‘international night,’’ in which participants will informally share in the various forms of expression of their cultures. Tra- ditionally the Mohonk Consulta- tions have developed an at- mosphere of informality and open- ness; by living, eating, and work- ing together the group becomes a kind of ‘‘ehlarged family’’ in : photo by Mary Yee -—.

In the question on narcotics and drug abuse, the well repeated phrase “It?s bad for .you’’ provided a logical answer to the risks of using hallucinogens. In a consideration of ‘‘common adjustment problems of young.a- dults entering college.’’ there was an obvious place for the state- ment the lecture on antisocial behavior, ‘‘suicide is the most complete method of self-destruc- tion.’? One or two of the lectures were géod, but the others were often dubbed, ‘‘insults to our intel- ligence.’’ For some, perhaps, there was merit to the culminating exam. But to many, it was the fulfillment of an easy requirement and a pain in the neck. ‘ . \ = a OME OF THE BIG NAME BANDS CE and DINE.

How- ever to get a more realistic view of the college’s social preferences, one should notice that Haverford ran second in the first choice category; and Yale ran third. Here are the figures: Penn - first choice - 40 - second - 47 - third - 41 Princeton - 80 - 69 ; - 48 Haverford - 74 - 12 - 42 Yale - 66 - 73 - 65 Columbia - 16 - 68 = 165 “Where the Action is’’ Bryn Mawr Mall (Next to Station) Ne PRESENTS SAT.
