‘Nigerian Student to Att

end H'ford, Bryn Mawr Social
Courses Scrutinized

Conference during Vacation |p Evaluation Books

Thanksgiving vacation will be
more than mere respite from lec-
tures and labs this year for one
Bryn Mavr girl. 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

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

the course of the weekend.
Dora will be among men and
women in various fields of study
who were selected for their abil-
ity to contribute to the group and
for their interests and objectives
in relation to the theme of the

conference.

places where relevant material
from the lectures could be in-
cluded in the essays. 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.

After analyzing the results of

ethe preferential polls, the Social

Committee found that most Bryn
Mawr girls prefer Princeton to
other men’s colleges, and that
the activity they would most like
to take part in is a formal dance,
While Princeton came out on
top, Yale appeared to be every-
one’s second choice and Colum-
bia everyone’s third choice. 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

Columbia - 16

Committee’s Poll
Favors Princeton Men

It is interesting to see that the
probable reason for Princeton’s
running first was that more Fresh-
men and Sophomores than Juniors
and Seniors turned in their ques-
tionnaires. The lower class, on
the whole, preferred Princeton,
while the upper classes preferred
Haverford.
