DANNY GLOVER chats with Germalne Pelleron Smith, director of multicultural life, at a reception after Glover's appearance with Felix Justice on Sunday.

Celebs inspire, educate

by Scott Runyon editor-in-chief Danny Glover and Felix Justice were not out to reap money and fame last Sunday when they came to Hope's chapel with a dramatic presentation titled "An Evening with Langston and Martin." Rather, they were out to educate and help people to understand some of the deep realities of mankind.

They developed their act to illuminate the powerful words of Martin Luther King and the poetic verses of Langston Hughes.

"Our mission is to go out and ti^

to put some meat and muscle on the bones of the academic research," Justice said.

The presentation was the second annual in Student Congress' Student Speaker Series and was organized for Black History Month by Congress and the Office of Student Development.

Justice, a stage actor from the San Francisco area, began this evening of education by converting the chapel into Riverside Church in Memphis on the midnight of April 3,1968, the day before Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination. Taking the role of King, he spoke to the congre-

gation about his burden for justice, equality, community and love.

Justice recalled one time he had the privilege of being in the presence of King yet never met him. "It was probably the significant event in my life. It transformed me," he said.

"You have to realize that Martin Luther King's message is timeless," Justice said. "Martin was a radical Christian who really believed that by turning the other cheek, we could reconcile the differences between people in groups and create what his tradition called the beloved com-

Seminary purchases Hope land

by Julie Blair campus editor With plans to begin a $3 million construction project. Western Theological Seminary, located on 14th Street and College Avenue, purchased Hope College property between 13th and 14ih Streets, squaring off the half-city block for Seminary expansion.

In late January, the Holland Planning Commission gave the go ahead to the Reformed Church project. Ground-breaking will begin in early March and is anticipated to be completed by September, Business Manager Norman Donkersloot said.

To help accommodate some of the 150 students enrolled at the Seminary and their families, 28 brick townhouse units will be built. Because many of the residents have small children, backyard play areas will be constructed in the heart of the townhouse community, protected from traffic.

In addition to the housing construction, the Seminary will improve the south side entrance of the building and convert the parking lot to a u-shaped drive-thru to improve traffic flow.

The project requires moving groups presently housed on the land.

The fate of Reese and Bouma cottages, with the capacity to house 16 Hope students, is yet undecided.

Officials considered moving the

The Seminary has the final say, but has not decided whether to doze or transplant the houses. , Though construction begins in less than one month. Bill Anderson, Hope College vice president of business and finance, assures students they won't be left in the cold.

Building will begin on the comer of 14th and College and progressing

toward the cottages, the project working around the cottages until students finish the semester.

In addition. Higher Horizons, located next to Brumler Apartments, will be either moved into an existing Hope cottage or into a building bought with the funds obtained from the sale of the land. " W e ' v e had a g e n t l e m e n ' s agreement with respect to the territory," Anderson said. "It is to our advantage that Western Seminary improves the area. Anything that improves their campus improves ours."

Local AIDS victim speaks out

by Julie Blair campus editor Paul Ver Hage was really, really good at keeping secrets.

For over three and a half years, he lived in a private hell of isolation and despair, lying to family and friends and sneaking in and out of hospitals for fear someone would find out he had AIDS. Garbed in leather jacket and stonewashed jeans, the 25-year-old Holland native shared his experiences with Hope students Tuesday night at an informal AIDS question and answer session in Phelps lounge, hoping to bring a more human dimension to the dreaded disease.

Ver Hage's battle began in the fall of 1981, during surgery for Krone's disease, an intestinal disorder that required part of his small intestine be removed. Complications set in and Ver Hage, a hemophiliac, needed a transfusion.

Paradoxically, that life-saving blood also transmitted the deadly HIV virus.

Nobody knew.

In 1990, while a sophomore at Calvin College, Ver Hage suspected the Krone's disease was again active and headed back to the hospital.

"I remember meeting my mother in the elevator and she told me one person who donated blood was found to be HIV positive," Ver Hage said.

"When she told me, I felt fine."

But it wasn't long before the disease began mutating the disease fighting cells in his immune system and replicating the HIV virus.

Afraid of the public's response, Ver Hage decided to keep his condition a secret, even from family and friends.

In 1990, bearing the burden of unspoken words, he was admitted

for meningitis.

"On the second day the doctor came into my room and said something I'll never forget," Ver Hage said. "He said I had full-blown AIDS. We had to sit down and talk about life support systems."

Over the next few years Ver Hage's life was continually interrupted by frequent hospital stays and doses of AZT and DDI, an experimental drug designed to control the AIDS symptoms.

Worse than the physical symptoms were the emotional repercussions of a dealing with a terminal illness. Ver Hage ached with depression and a sense of hopelessness.

"I remember waking up and wishing it was nighttime so I could go back to sleep," Ver Hage said. "I wanted to close everybody out and go it alone."

But after three weeks of suffering in the world of depression, he pulled himself together, determined to overcome AIDS. "I made the decision to no longer keep it a secret," Ver Hage said. "I didn't want to have to lie about the medications and about going to the doctor."

One by one Ver Hage passed the news to family and friends. He joined an AIDS support group and began to reshape his spiritual life.

Today, after graduating with a business administration degree from Northwood College, Ver Hage works in the family's car dealership, a job that keeps him close to his family and allows flexible hours.

He effectively manages AIDS with medication and a healthy diet, and fends off fatigue, resting late in the mornings before going to work.

Thinking Ahead

NEWS OF INTEREST

Stephanie Grier In Response to Bravery There exist some issues which seem too explosive for casual discussion; they are too deeply moral and political to be carelessly debated. Topics of this nature always cause blood pressures to rise, simply because it is impossible not to be heated and passionate when conversing upon them.

One man, Jack Kevorkian, has brought such an issue into the harsh light of day through his actions. He is a living, working example of a subject which we would all rather avoid—the question of a Human's right to die.

I must admit that I charged into the writing of this particular column with unusual fervor. I intended initially to make it clear to everyone how important it is for a person to die with dignity, and how unfortunate it was that the state of Michigan had passed a law which would soon make this an impossibility. 1 planned to illustrate my points with examples from my own life and probably from yours; I was positive that the editor of this paper would be besieged by letters from a readership more conservative than 1, but reasoned that this was a necessary part of expressing my own (and undoubtedly more accurate) opinion.

It pains me to say that I have been working on this column for three days now. I can't find the words to say what I meant to at the start, and now I can't even decide if 1 want the whole world to have my opinion to bandy about when I am not there to defend it in person. In short, I think that I am chickening out.

The fact that I am not rushing forward to speak my peace has caused me to consider the characteristics of people who are. I wonder at the utter fortitude of those who believe so strongly in their own views that they would do anything—even end another human's life—to make them known. I wonder about Randall Terry and the force with which he ambushes abortion clinics, and I wonder about those people who raid laboratories to stop the abuse of animals. I wonder about the women who support N.O.W. and other pro-choice organizations, and even abQut Ross Perot, who was willing to sacrifice the next four years (and a lot of money) to do what he thought best for his country.

I cannot say whether or not any of these people are doing the right thing. In fact, I can't even say whether or not they deserve the public criticism they receive for their actions. I am only able to respect their tremendous commitment to their own views and to hope that they feel a sense of some sort of accomplishment when their actions bring the issue closer to those of us who are mere spectators.

Where I should perhaps be expounding upon the merits or consequences of Jack Kevorkian's actions, I will instead be trying to put them into perspective for people like me. Why does he do it? What does it mean?

I don't think that it's because Kevorkian is an evil man or because he desires to have a place in the spotlight; I wouldn't even

say that he deserves the title 4tDr. Death." I really think that he is doing the best he can to shed light on an issue that people would otherwise not willingly discuss.

He forces the hand of the people through their government.

Because of his actions, Michigan passed a law forbidding assisted suicide and now every citizen must decide how he or she feels if a reversal is to be made. Our political leaders didn't bring about that sort of thought, coffeehouse gossip didn't do it, and a lowly newspaper columnist certainly didn't do it. It took action from someone who was not afraid of consequences.

Although 1 personally agree with Dr. Kevoikian's point of view, I am not brave enough to do such a thing myself. I could not help another person to end his life, nor could I storm a lab full of mistreated animals, nor could I physically block an abortion clinic. I am a person who would rather write down her views and send them away to an unknown faceless audience whose criticism cannot long affect me. I don't like bad consequences, but I have a great deal of admiration for those who are not afraid of them.

This column is a departure for me, because I would rather speak from the safe perspective of "third person." It does not seem to me that most people here at Hope are very different. If any of us can gain any new perspective from the actions of Kevorkian and others like him, I hope that it is a sense that every now and then it's okay to speak and act from the heart.

Financial aid office faces changes

by David Chamin news editor President Clinton is sending out his own call for "a season of service" by proposing a new financial aid program which are likely to affect Hope's financial aid program.

President Clinton envisions his education reforms as central to the success of his administration, but has not yet clarified its structure.

In his booklet, "Putting People First," Clinton wrote: "To give every American the right to borrow money for college, we will scrap the existing student loan program and establish a National Service Trust Fund. Those who borrow from the fund will be able to choose how to

repay the balance: either as a small percentage of their earnings over time, or by serving their communities for one or two years doing work their country needs as teachers, law enforcement officers, health care workers, or peer counselors helping kids stay off drugs and in school."

This proposal would require a change in the current system where the government subsidizes banks which provide loans to students.

Clinton's plan would involve a single trust fund from which students could borrow money and repay either in cash or service.

Reaction to the proposal on education have generally been positive.

Hope's Office of Financial Aid will need to help students through

changes the policies brings.

Phyllis Hooyman, director of financial aid, likes Clinton's plan. "He has very creative solutions even though right now they are so vague," she said. Her main concern is avoiding an increase in red tape in an already "very bureaucratic" process.

When the final decisions are made, Hope will be affected. According to Hooyman, 1500 of the 2800 students are receiving needbased financial aid. Another 700 are receiving non-need aid and 2200 have some contact with the Financial Aid Office. Thus, with approximately 80 percent of Hope students having some contact with the Financial Aid Office, any changes will have widespread effect.

WASHINGTON As the February 17 deadline for President Clinton's economic package approaches, tensions rise over anticipated taxes and spending cuts.

Possibilities before the president include increasing taxes on those with over 200,000 to more than the 36 percent proposed during the campaign, a gas tax, raising the age minimum to receive social security, an energy consumption tax, and taxing a higher percentage of social security benefits.

WASHINGTON President Clinton continues to seek a replacement nominee for Attorney General after the withdrawal of Aetna attorney Zoe Baird. Kimba Wood, a Federal Judge who adjudicated the Michael Milken trial initially lead the short list of those being considered for the top law-enforcement post, but was forced to withdraw after it was revealed that she had employed a child-care worker with an expired visa.

SOMALIA U.S. forces came under fire this week as Somali bandits became aggressive in their efforts to abduct grain convoys. No U.S. troops were killed. The U.N. is discussing plans to take over control of the U.S. operation in Somalia; plans call for a force of 20,000.

BOSNIA President Clinton is considering all options in the hope of ending the ethnic conflict in the region. Clinton may appoint a special envoy to the region. Last week an E.C. mediator chastised the U.S. for not taking an active enough role in conflict resolution in the formej Yugoslavia.

WORLDWIDE Trade disputes begin to simmer around the world. China, the E.C., Japan and other nations to become concerned over the possible policy choices of the Clinton Administration. Congress could aggravate the issue with the possible revival of the "Super 301" trade statute, which mandates automatic trade retaliation during certain disputes.

Tecmo football cult blitzes dorms across Hope's campus

by Dirk Joldersma features editor The Super Bowl was another blow-out. With homework done— or at least being put off until later— what could be a better use of time than pulling out the Nintendo?

And at Hope College, time after time, when students play Nintendo, they pick Tecmo Football as the game.

Tecmo Football is a pro-football simulation that has gained a fanatical following among many male Hope students. Its major strength is its ability to pit student against student in a contest of will, fast fingers and verbal wit

One of the most popular features of the game is that it provides the option of playing an entire season keeping statistics for each player. It will save into memory the records of each player'^team allowing them to work their way to the playoffs, and even the Tecmo SuperBowl. This is what has made this game attractive to many a student.

"It's the only game I know that lets you pick a team and play it for an entire season," Jeff Comfort ('96) explained. "You can get kind of obsessed with your team."

Another attractive feature of the game is itsflexibility.Tecmopermits full substitution; indeed, it requires i t During the season, players will

get hurt or fatigued, and their ability levels will decrease proportionately.

Smart substitution is vital for a winning team. This substitution option also lets the players put in their favorite stars, and sometimes even lesser known players.

"I like to put in all the old U of M Wolverines. Sure, they aren't always the best players on the team, but I like them the best," commented Chris Greiman ('96).

But the best part of the game is the camaraderie it instills in its players. It is common to see four or five guys hanging out together, with two playing and the others coaching, rooting and commenting. All the players submit to a scathing review

by the viewers in the room. Advice will range from play calling to making the move from the line of scrimmage, but it is all given in a spirit of competitive fun. Arrogance is understood as part of the game.

Logan Southfield ('95) summarized the tactics. "Intimidation and cockiness are your two best weapons—after Jerry Rice." And after the game is played out, the tactics over, a common cry is heard, clearly stated by Tyler Williams ('96), "C'mon, just one more game!"

The Tecmo addiction has seems to have hooked players all over campus. Kollen, Phelps, Voorhees, Arcadian, and Durfee Halls all have dedicated groups of players.

Perhaps the best explanation for its popularity came from Mark Maxson ( ' 9 5 ) , who r e a s o n e d , "Tecmo is so easy to play. Sega and other brands have some really complicated systems, but with Tecmo you just pick the play and execute better than the other guy. But even though you don't have to be Tom Landry to play it well, you do have to have good football sense."

Periodically, one may see a group of Ave yelling and screaming at a TV screen, with two strategically placed for optimum view and the others scattered through the rest of the room.

This just might be a Tecmo contest.

Pep Band doing 'a great job'

by Dirk Joldersma features editor

The rain is pouring down, and Holland Municipal Stadium is quickly emptying. Another night, the Dutch are up by 23 points with only four minutes left in the second half. Fans are leaving, hurrying to beat the rush.

But in both places, one group remains, loyally pounding on their drums and sounding their horns.

The Hope Pep Band is a group of students dedicated to raising the spirit of their team and the prowd.

Through their musical talents they keep the excitment high during timeouts and other slowpoints dur-

ing the games.

About 35 students participate in this class, and most of them earn half a credit for their commitment to rehearse every week and play every home basketball and football game.

But with the spirit they show, it is not hard to see that they enjoy themselves, and do not regret the commitment that they have made.

Leading the crowd in a chorus of the fight song, or maybe a golden oldie, is a favorite. The crowd can really get enthusiastic sometimes.

Brian VanZanten ('95), a trumpet player in the band, talked of an unidentified fan. This man told him, "The Pep Band gets the crowd excited. Man, those drummers are really crazy."

The Pep Band is directed by parttime faculty member Tom Working, of Byron Center.

Learning at least two or three new songs each semester is fairly typical, but students stress the difficulty of staying away from the old favorites that are so popular with the crowd.

The Pep Band's antics lead the crowd in musical and cheering activities that substantially contribute to football and basketball atmosphere here at Hope College. In fact, Hope B a s k e t b a l l c o a c h Glenn VanWieran was so impressed with the Pep Band, he told them. They were the best Pep Band Hope's had in a long time. You guys are doing a great job.

On his first visit to India, Boyd Wilson walked into a train station after arriving in the country, "took one look at the crowds, turned around and fled."

"I had to send someone else in to buy my tickets," he remembers. "I wouldn't ride on trains, thinking buses were easier to figure out. In fact, they weren't; the bus stations were just less crowded. I could have saved myself a great deal of trouble if 1 hadn't panicked at the sight of the crowds."

The art of making train reservations is one of many things a student will learn if accompaning Wilson, associate professor of religion, on a May Term travel seminar to India.

Sponsored by Hope College, the trip is worth three credit hours and will fulfill upper level religion requirements for core, or the world religions requirement for the religion major.

The tour of India will begin in the city of Delhi and stop in other cities such as Bombay, Calcutta, Bangalore and Jaipur. Students will journey to Agra (home of the Taj Mahal) and visit a temple carved into a cliff face in Aurangabad.

While in Vamasi, "the holiest city in India" because it is central to

both Buddhism and Hinduism, students will take a pre-dawn boat ride on the Ganges to see the hundreds of pilgrims performing their morning ablutions.

"I want the students not just to see India, but to actually experience Indian culture, to gain an appreciation for a different world view," Wilson said. Therefore, meals will be eaten in Indian rather than Western restaurants, and public transportation will be used whenever possible. Students will also be required to submit a paper focusing on one of the sites on the itinerary, so they can act as a "tour guide" for the rest of the class when visiting that site.

"It's an opportunity to learn about life outside of Hope College," said Kurt Dershem ('94), one of the students accompanying Wilson. "I think it's going to be a rewarding experience."

The course begins as the plane leaves on May 10. They will return May 31. Cost of the trip has been estimated between $2,200 and $2,500 which includes round-trip transportation from Holland, all accommodations and two meals each day. Only four out of 15 available places have been filled; interested students should contact Wilson in the department of religion before the end of February.

Editorial

On sexual harassment policy postponement ' T h e Academic Affairs Board did the right thing by postponing the deadline to finalize the revision of the college's sexual harassment policy. They moved the deadline from March 1 to 31 after deciding they needed more time to gather input from various groups on campus.

Before doing this, they had to seriously look at the deadline and what they knew the policy needed to accomplish. When they did so, they concluded more time was needed to get it right.

The key point to notice here is that the Board had their priorities straight. They put the content and issues of the policy, essentially the good of the community, above the procedure it will take to put it in motion. They let the need for a good policy on sexual harassment decide how it would be dealt with.

This illustrates the role procedures and processes ought to take in governance. They should be subordinate as the means to an end or goal.

This is not to say that the procedure is insignificant and can be overridden any time. The processes and procedures play an important role with any governing situation where a body needs to prioritize and categorize the issues they deal with.

Often, bureaucratic procedure will get in the way of significant results in governance. This can happen when the procedure takes precedence over the needs of the people. As a result, important issues are not dealt with properly.

In the New Testament, Paul explains how the law was given for the benefit of people, not people to benefit the law. There were times when the law was suspended so that the principles the law was founded on could be better served.

It is the same with organizational procedure. Deadlines, for example, are necessary and important. But, when there is a need that goes beyond the limits of the procedure, then the procedure must give way first.

It ought to be a goal of any group in this situation to focus first on what is important and then figure out the best process to use to meet these needs. The key is to find the balance and know when to suspend the procedures and reorganize so that the original needs are met.

(Editors note: This is the second column in a series of written by two Hope students in Philadelphia for this semester. Mumby will be back next semester and VanOstenberg will be graduating.)

Next time you are enjoying all the comforts of your nice warm cottages or dorm rooms, please stop and think of those people that do not have a home or a heated place to sleep.

We always knew that there were homeless people and maybe even saw a few, but never had to really deal with them on aone-to-one basis in Holland, nor in our hometowns.

Now with our newfound experience in Philadelphia comes the responsibility of being an active participant in the welfare of the city in which we live.

This is one thing that the Philadelphia Center is designed to teach its students. It tries to offer the students not only independent living but also a realm of urban diversity that is not available on most college campuses.

Everyday we have to walk past beggars and homeless people on our way to our heated apartment for our lunch or dinner. If that is not a slap in the face of reality, I don't know what could be except suddenly finding yourself in their shoes. The concept of being homeless is somewhat incomprehensible to most of us and we almost look down at these people as if to say, "How could you let this happen to you^self? ,, These individuals are actually the victims and

by asking ourselves this question we are blaming the victim for something that is beyond their control.

Being homeless is not their fault but the fault of a failed system and a society that has quit caring and decided to look the other way when they see something that might not be so pleasant to look at. I'm not saying that you are supposed to give money to every person you pass on the street, but donate some money to the local homeless shelters and volunteer some precious time to help out people other than just yourself.

There are facts about homeless people that are surprising, and misconceptions that we all have that just aren't true. One surprising fact is that the majority of homeless people are women and children.

Now explain to me how it could ever be a child's fault for being homeless. How can we look the other way at a cold and starving child? So many of us support and cry for children in third world countries, but what about our own children that need our help just as badly?

These are the children of tomorrow and the adults of our future that need our help today. . This is a surprising statistic to many o f u s that visualize the typical homeless person as a young black male that is either addicted to drugs or to alcohol. This misconception is formed due to the fact that women and children are the first ones to be placed in shelters, whereas the young black males are the last Since the young black male is the one we see

on the street, he is the one to which we attach the name ^'homeless person."

Another misconception is that if you give these people money they will only buy booze and drugs. Well, this is wrong. Maybe some of them might, but the majority of people are cold and hungry and would give anything for a warm house and meal.

However, if you feel that you can't do that out of fear for how they spend their money, then give money to a shelter. And if you feel you don't have the money to spare, give some of your time.

Just the other day as we were walking down Chestnut Street, an older man stopped us to ask, 44Can you spare some change?" We kept on walking, almost immune to what we had heard, he then changed his plea to, "Can you buy me a hotdog, please?" At least if you bought this man a hotdog you would know where your money was going and you would have made a contribution to saving some of our own people.

We are as guilty as anyone of looking the other way and ignoring a growing problem in our country, but we have been forced to see the problem here in Philadelphia, and have made our pledge to try and help as best we can. Many of us never thought that we would see the day that gangs would come to Holland, but they did. So what can we do to help our own homeless people and stop it from growing any further?

We have made our commitment to our new city to help. Can you?

Perseverance of a Race Thapelo Matenge The unsubstantiated assertion that African Americans are, if you will, a nation of gun-toting gang members, hustlers and trouble makers who lack any ingenuity or positive history and are thus unable to contribute to the economic and scientific growth of America is a moral lie. This stereotype which is glamorized and dramatized by the media perpetuates this bigoted and racist attitude which has led to the hasty and yet calculated so called "white flight" in recent years, creating in effect two Americas: a suburbia and a ghetto.

For decades these racial epithets were callously and systematically administered by an institution that prided itself on sanctioning and manifesting an observation of equal rights for all Americans. Sadly enough, even though the law books have now been rewritten to accommodate these minorities, little has changed.

The country is still very much disunited and divided along racial lines and is no less polarized than it was decades ago. Through redistricting, the general white population has instead drawn away, barricading itself behind the high walls of the suburbs, all the way across America. Yet all the time they are enjoying the many luxuries afforded

people they label as uncouth.

They seemingly prefer that blacks be seen only from a distance and not be heard or mingled with. It would appear that to them blacks are incapable and have been unable to positively partake and contribute to the growth of this nation. Thus even the education system is now further divided up, attested to by the miniscule enrollment of African Americans in the classrooms of small, especially private, colleges across America.

These institutions have not wholeheartedly fought for integration but instead, to thwart criticisms, have enrolled a small number of AfroAmericans.

This, though, is a downright fallacy, for this nation ticks as the result of the efforts of a countless number of African Americans.

Without the input and efforts of these people this country would indeed still lag far behind.

Take a moment, and imagine if you will, an America without automated traffic lights, or for that matter, automobiles lacking fenders and indicators. What a hassle life would be trying to get around. Can you imagine a world without gas masks, especially considering the love we seemingly possess for wars? What would it be like without elevators, letter boxes, rotary engines, signal generators, street sweepers, com

planters, train alarms, airships, glider aircraft, insect destroyers, bottles, registers, air conditioners, multiple barrel machine guns and a whole host of other inventions?

Without lawn sprinklers, ironing boards, dinner pails, dustpans, refrigerators, oil stoves and a countless number of other amenities, indeed life in our homes would be hard if not unbearable. For the avid scholar, what would you do without fountain pens, pencil sharpeners, handstamps and folding chairs?

Ahh, what a struggle life would be. Thanks to the ingenuity of those black inventors though, who invented the aforementioned items, life for all Americans is so much easier. These are achievements that blacks are proud of and indeed as I write this I shake uncontrollably with excitement. If African Americans were able to achieve all this, in repressive conditions, what then is possible in a free, just and fully integrated society? Indeed my brethren can beat their chests with pride for it is a rich history they possess and have cultivated.

There is still a lot to be done though, and as African Americans continue shaking off the shackles of oppression the struggle continues.

Tliere are still many hurdles to be jumped and countless pitfalls line the path.

Every so often, someone touches you in a way that alters your perspective on life forever.

Such was the case last Tuesday night as I went to hear AIDS patient Paul Ver Hage speak.

I wasn't prepared for the significant impact the next hour would have on me, nor did I anticipate halting my life for the next week or so to consider his wisdom.

I had just had one of Those Days.

The speech I'd given that morning in public presentations class was a nightmare. My bank book was again refusing to balance as the loan sharks harassed my family with threats of ruined credit ratings. Biology and psychology exams loomed large on my calendar and, of course, I was at least four chapters behind in the reading. I had yet to dummy my page for The Anchor, had no clean socks and looked like a Hollywood hooker, as I couldn't seem to remove the industrial strength mascara mole from my cheek I'd dabbed on earlier for my Rush movie star costume.

Alas, a callosal day.

I plunked down on the couch in Phelps lounge with my reporter's pad and a Kletz cup of caffeine, sighed, checked the clock, and tried to psych up for the talk.

I would need a fresh angle for this baby. So many had already written about the AIDS epidemic using the shock treatment...so many zillion were infected, spreading to the heterosexual community...blah blah blah. Not that it wasn't a necessary angle. It was just tired. I was tired.

For the next forty-five minutes the seemingly healthy young man spoke to us about his life and what it was like to have AIDS. The physical pain. The agonizing emotional turmoil. The hurt, denial and eventually, acceptance of a disease that was slowly sapping all vitality from his 25year-old body.

The group listening was in sync with Paul's message, trying to comprehend its impact. The girl on the couch across from me sat curled in a ball, swiping quickly at the tears slipping down her cheeks. Others had starched expressions on their faces, intent, compassionate.

Some nodded carefully.

But strangely, a kind of callousness began to creep over me. Everyone had problems they had to deal with, some of us were just dealt a more difficult hand than others. True, it wasn't fair, but that was life.

And then Paul said something that rocked me from my cynicism.

"I am inhibited by time, but I'm going to do as much with that lime as I can."

At twentysomething, life often seems like it will continue forever. Many of us whittle away the days en masse, punctuating them with countless deadlines, fretting over this and that, forgetting that we, too, are inhibited by one final deadline.

For most of us, the days are masked by shadows of the past and future. As college students, we are trained by the American social system to ignore the present, pushing our way through to graduation and ultimate goals. Society says this is a good thing and we are dubbed "motivated" or "focused."

But in our haste to move forward or look back, we might be missing out on the everyday celebrations. Each phase of life is made up of significant moments. It is a shame we take them for granted or ignore them simply because we don't have time. Those late-night conversations and early morning coffees, while not so good for the body come an 8 a.m. class, make life really worth living.

Carpe diem, friends, carpe diem, for there is so much to think, feel and love and so little time...

Liljehorn paces team at forensics tournament Kari Liljehorn ('96) led the Hope College forensic team by placing fifth in Informative Speaking and tenth in Impromptu Speaking at the Highland Community College (Freeport, HI.) Invitational Forensics Tournament held Feb. 5 and 6.

"Kari's excellent performance is testimony to her speaking talent and composition ability, since this is only the second time she has taken her Informative into competition this season," said Sandy Alspach, assistant professor of communication and director of forensics.

Liljehorn feels that speech competition is a great way to compete without being in sports. 'This is one of the few areas where I can go to a tournament competition which is not based on athletics."

The tournament matched student speakers representing 22 schools from six states in the midwest.

Speaking in public address events besides Liljehorn were Trent Wakenighl ('93) (Informative Speaking, Persuasion and After Dinner Speaking) and Wayne Barrett ('96), Ward Holloway ('93) and Jeff Walton ('93) (Persuasion). Interpreters for Hope included Susan Adkins ('96) (Dramatic Interpretation), Lorraine Gardner ('96) and Scott Sawicki ('95) (Poetry and Prose), and Liljehorn, Wakenight, and W a l t o n (Prose). B a r r e t t , Holloway,Liljehom,WakQnightand Walton all competed in Impromptu Speaking.

Alspach reported that the competition at the Highland tournament was especially keen.

"Manyof these students have been working on their materials since last spring, and their level of polish was an important factor in their high rankings," Alspach said.

HOPE COACH GLENN VAN WIEREN anxiously watches the action as the Fiylng Dutchmen are tenacious on defense.

STEVE HENDRiCKSON goes coast to coast for two of his nine points.

(MWUMvly defeated

by Todd P. Jungling sports editor

DOUG MESECAR goes up for an easy deuce that got Hope out of the gates early In the second half.

"When the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone, and slung it, and struck the Philistine on his forehead; the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground.

So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him; there was no sword in the hand of David."

—I Samuel 17:48-50.

Last Wednesday evening in the Holland Civic Center the Flying Dutchmen hoped to duplicate the heroics of David and defeat the mighty Knights of Calvin College.

Although the Hope College Flying Dutchmen ultimately couldn 't defeat the Knights, the mighty Goliath did swagger, stumble, and almost topple.

The game started out on a Fantastic note for Hope. The Boz (Duane Bosma) controlled the opening tip and then proceeded to score the first

two points of the game—remember, he's only a freshman. Hope led 2-0.

Brad Duistermars then hit from three—and he's only a sophomore!

The Boz and Duistermars accounted for Hope's first 13 points.

The score was deadlocked at 13 after the first television time-out.

The number '13' proved to be unlucky for Hope as they were content to stay there for a couple minutes.

Calvin now led by the score of 1713.

Doug Mesecar ('93) then scored four consecutive points for Hope.

The Boz added two more. Once again the score was knotted, this time it was 19-19.

At this time, I overheard one of Hopes fine guards say to himself, "Wait a minute...! have an idea...!'!! try a three-pointer of my own."

That's exactly what he did. Oh by the way, his name was Matt Waite ('94). At this stage Hope led 22-19!

After Mesecar converted two freethrows, Hendricksen ('93) scored two, and Jeff DeMasse ('93) added another deuce, Kevin Westrate ('93) decided that it was simply too easy to make freethrows the "regular" way. He decided to

simply pop his contacts out onto the gym floor and shoot half-way blind.

Not a bad idea—he made them both.

Duistermars finished the Hope first-half scoring by hitting anoil.er deuce. At half-time Hope led 32-27.

The second half didn't go near as well for Hope. Honderd was "treeing" from both inside and outside.

Calvin led 77-71 with 48 seconds remaining in the contest when Duistermars hit a three-pointer and was fouled. Upon converting his freethrow Hope trailed only 77-75.

That was as close as Hope could get as Calvin went on to win by the final score of 81-75.

It's obvious that Steve Honderd and Brad Duistermars do their banking at First Michigan Bank because these two, for the second consecutive week, were voted FMB's most valuable player. Leading the way for Hope was Duistermars with 25 points, Mesecar with 12, and the Boz with 10 points.

Well, Hope came close but they couldn't quite knock out the mighty Goliath. I have one word of warning however for the Calvin Knights:Hope still has a smooth stone in their secret pocket for the MIAA tournament. photos by Rich Blair

HOLLAND RESIDENTS ENJOY tempting Italian fare at Orlando's restaurant near 32nd Street and US31 on Hasting Avenue.

Orlando's stromboli tempts the taste buds

by Richard Blair staff reporter It's night and either you can't bring yourself to eat at Phelps, and cooking doesn't cause any enthusiasm. What to do? Hot and Now? Taco Bell? None of these choices bring much interest. Then the idea hits...pizza! But, wait. Who wants to get a plain old pizza when there are strombohs to be eaten?

The stromboli—that inside-out pizza that is more than just a pizza and just the thing to sate that hunger.

The question comes to bean who has the best stromboli? Is it Faro's orGreat Lakes? Well, look out: there is a new stromboli in town.

Located by 32nd Street and U.S. 31 on Hastings Avenue is Orlando's.

Now open for little over a year, it provides what must undoubtedly be rated the best stromboli in the Holland area. Orlando himself does much of the cooking for the restaurant and most of his recipes are straight from his head.

Be warned though, these strombolis are not single person affairs. Imagine a full-sized pizza rolled and full of delicious toppings.

(Or are they innings?)

Unfortunately, Orlando's does not have a delivery service. This shortcoming is made up for in the excellence of their product. They do have a pick-up window and orders can be phoned in ahead. The typical wait is 25 minutes.

Be careful, though; the strombolis come fresh from the oven with a

smell of butter that tantalizes the nose. The mere presence of such a culinary masterpiece can cause even the most stoic of pizza runners to lose control.

No one who wants to keep their friends should confront them with a half- eaten stromboli and the lame excuse, "But, it smelled so good, 1 just couldn't help myself."

However, the stromboli is not the only thing on the menu. Orlando's features a wide variety of Italian and American cuisine. The price is also right with a three-item stromboli costing $7.95 and the most expensive pizza costing 16.85, a Chicago style pizza with "the works."

So for a great stromboli or an Italian dinner, Orlando's is the place of choice.

Foster at her best in Sommersby

by Sarabeth Robie staff reporter Richard Gere has an amazing back. This may not be a politically correct reason to go to a movie, but I must admit that it influenced my choice quite a bit. Once I was at the theatre I was perfectly happy to watch Gere and his co-star Jodie Foster in the movie Sommersby.

The title of the movie is taken from the name of the husband of Jodie Foster's character. The husband, Jack Sommersby, has been away from home for over six years.

The movie begins as a man who claims to be Sommersby enters town.

Herein lies the crux of the matter— this man may not be Jack.

He looks like him, but over the course of the movie the viewers are introduced to a number of discrepancies in his story that lead us to question the man's identity. Richard, do you lie? Tell me it ain't so!!!

I'm sure that as a member of the intellectual mecca of the Hope •College community you are aware that there must be more to this story.

I assure you that you arerightin this respect.

However, I do not feel that I ought to reveal to you the rest of the plot (unlike the plots of other mov-

ies— Basic Instinct—Gag!).

What makes this movie worth spending your hard earned cash on?

For one, you will hear what an honest to goodness real southern accent sounds like.

I bring this to the attention of those of you that find Beverly Hillbillies realistic in any, and I mean any, sense of the word. Both Gere and Foster have mastered the art of speaking with a realistic southern accent. This no easy feat. My father, for example, has lived in the south for about eight years and can' t speak with a solitary lick of the accent.

The real reason to see this movie is not Richard Gere's back (though that happens to be a plus), or the accents, or the even the glorious scenery. The real reason to see Sommersby is to see Jodie Foster in

her element.

The character that she plays covers a full range of emotions, all of which Foster leaps into with force. I saw nary a false move in her performance as Mrs. Sommersby. While Gere' s performance was on an equal level to previous performances in An Officer and a Gentleman and Pretty Woman, Foster's performance soared high above him.

I must explain that this movie does not receive a superior rating due to the drawn out ending as well as some contrived plot elements. I do commend it highly for the solid choice for the ending.

It is my suggestion that you ignore my rating if you were predispositioned to want to see this movie, and see it anyway.

Robie Rating: **•

Robie Rating System * I'd rather jump into a pool of double edged razor blades than spend one more minute in this movie. *• This movie had potential. It has as much of a chance of being taken seriously as the New Kids on the Block.

•** Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't.

•*** Better than a pilgrimage to Graceland to pay homage to the King.

Far more superior than Monday Night at Phelps. Far more superior than the Kletz. Far more superior than...than...than Steak Night!!!!!

Valentines Day gets sort of a bad rap. A lot of people accuse it of being nothing more than a so called "Hallmark Holiday."

What they mean is that they think Valentines Day is nothing more than a scam put on by card, candy and flower companies in order to make money.

This idea bothers me because Valentines Day has been my favorite holiday ever since 1 was little. I have wonderful memories of Valentines Day. I remember going to the supermarket with my mom and picking out the perfect valentines. A very big deal. First, I had to find my favorite cartoon characters (Sylvester and Tweety). Second, I had to make sure there was a teacher card.

And then finally, and this was always the tricky part, I always had to find one valentine in the box that was a little, but not too suggestive, so I could give it to whomever I had a crush on that year.

I even remember one year that a boy in my class bought the same box of valentines that I did.

He gave me the valentine card that 1 had designated "the suggestive one." So, being the flirtatious fourth grader that I was, I gave him one of those pink chalky hearts that said "hot stuff."

Yeah-Valentines Day has always been one of my favorites.

That is why 1 feel some sort of obligation to defend its reputation against some of harsh critics in the world. So here goes...

First of all. Hallmark did not invent Valentines day, St. T-

"

1

•

Valentine did. Sec, Valentines Day was originally the day of the Roman Feast of Lupercalia and then it was christianized in memory of the martyr St. Valentine after he died in A.D. 270. Then in the Middle Ages Valentine became associated with the union of lovers.

Second of all, even if Hallmark had invented Valentines Day, should we really be that hard on them? I mean, what's wrong with turning the celebration of love into a holiday? Yes, I am sure that Hallmark is more interested in the moneymaking side of Valentines Day than in the celebrating love part, but still, that's their job and I can forgive them for that.

It is true that money can't buy love, but nonetheless, love is a pretty good excuse to spend money, don't ya think?

The way I see it, love is one of the best things in the world to invest in.

If you think about all of the things we spend our money on, such as CDs, movies and clothes, what's 20 bucks on a card and box of chocolates really going to hurt you? I'm not saying that spending money is a requirement for a successful relationship, because there are a lot of poor people who are in love.

What I am saying is if you are thinking of ways to spend your money, or if you have money to spend, buying something for someone that you love is not a bad idea. And that is why Valentines Day is not a bad idea, no matter who you think invented it.

Movies to set the mood get back together. They live happily ever after. A beautifully perfect story. My fave.

by Mellissa Endsley aits & entertainment editor

3. Gone With The Wind— T i s the season as they say. Love is in the air. There is just something about the month of February that Stirs up romance. We here at The /inc/wr are trying to keep that feeling going throughout tljp month by sug- ^ gestingtoyousome of our favorite ro- . mantic movies 1 available on videotape. This list was decided upon by myself, my friend Mike, and my favorite fellow Anchor editor chick, Julie Blair.

1. The Thornbirds— (Julie's pick) This is a story about a married woman who falls in love with priest. (Wow, talk about tough circumstances.) Anyway, it's set in Australia and deals primarily with how true love can conquer anything.

2. Say Anything-Amy pick) Boy spots girl in a mall. Boy calls girl and asks her out. Girl says yes.

They fall in love. They have some incredibly realistic and romantic dates. They are torn apart. They

(Julie's pick) The classic and utmost of love stories. Enough said.

4. Casablanca—{My pick) Again a classic. This movie shows just how much people in love are willing to do for each other.

5.Beauty andTheBeasl— (unanimous) We both saw. We both loved. We know you probably already saw it but please, for us, see it again.

6. When Harry Met M/y—(unanimous) This is a wonderful story about firiends falling in love. There are some romantic scenes (i.e. the ending) but this story deals mostly with a truly unique friendship that turns into something much more.

7. tfarold and Maude—(my friend Mike's pick) A story about an unusual 18-year-old guy who falls in love with an 80-year-old woman. It's offbeat, zany arid wonderful.

(ABOVE) A RELAXED SETTING: Felix Justice and provost Jacob Nyenhuis enjoy a discussion at a reception held after the performance.

Continued from page 1 mumly."

Justice's speech reached a climax as he spoke about the hope for a just life. "How long must we carry on." he proclaimed. "When will the wounded justice thai lies prostrate on the streets of our cities be lifted from this dust of shame to reign supreme among men? How long will justice be crucified and truth hidden ? How long before we are first class citizens of this nation? How long?... Not long!" Justice shouted from the pulpit.

He concluded the first half of the presentation reenforcing King's stance against the Vietnam War. Glover, who lives in San Francisco and is known for his famed movie career, look the stage next, reading with passion the poems of Langston Hughes, and adding personal reflections along the way.

"1 picked Langston because his life's work—his life was a manifestation of what should happen in the world. I wanted to focus on that—from the lime he was a kid and knew he wanted to be a poet and writer.

Following the two presentations. Glover and Jus-

lice opened up the floor for questions.

The highlight of the question-answer time came as the packed chapel heartily applauded Robert Anthony Melton Jr. from Whitehall , M l who asked a question, then, at Glover's request, recited a special poem authored by an African-American.

Congress President Holly Moore ('93) felt the event was a success. "1 feel that this experience was beneficial to ihe Hope community," she said. "Th:it was my goal—that people would come away changed.

If that happened, then this series is important to continue in future years."

"The event was inspirational," said Joe Kuiper ('93), Congress vice-president. "They brought it to life. It's the closest I"!I ever get lo the real thing."

Glover and Justice address a situation with their production they feel is always timely and important for mankind. "We have not learned to live together as human beings," said Justice. "That is the central issue that concerns us and almost all people. We all manage to manufacture some reason based on ethnicity, race or color why this is impossible."

Arthur Ashe— A champion both on and off the court As Christ Memorial pastor, Tim Brown could so poignantly say, 44I want you to come with me to 13th Street, between College and Central Avenues. You are coming to my house and are going to visit my upstairs bedroom. As you enter the bedroom you see posters and pennants hanging on the walls, tennis rackets scattered here and there, clothes lying on the floor, and a cap rack located near the big picture window. If you look above my desk you can see, nailed to the wall, Uie front page of the September 30, 1992 issue of the Los Angeles Times. This particular issue of the LA Times depicts and describes in glowing terms the return of Earvin Magic Johnson to the game of basketball. (This was before he retired for Ihe second time.)

Surrounding this issue of the LA Times is the following verse from Philippians 4:13 that reads, 'I can do all things in Him who strengthens me.'"

For the time being I would like to take down this particular issue of the LA Times and replace it with the December 21, 1992 cover of Sports Illustrated.

You see, the cover of this publication depicted an individual who, like Magic, waged a war against HIV and AIDS, but who on February 7,1993 lost in a valiant battle against this dreaded disease. His game was tennis. His name was Arthur Robert Ashe, Jr. As is quite obvious to those who knew him, Arthur Ashe lived his life according to this verse found in Philippians.

He was a "humanitarian, a leader, a role model, a hero." Listen to what Jimmy Connors said about Ashe: ' T e n n i s was his forte...he made his mark not only in tennis but in world activities.

That to me is more important than his tennis."

Although I am not a fan of Martina Navratalova she did put it

well when she said, 44Ashe was an extraordinary human being who transcended his sport, his race, religion, and nationality, and in his own way helped to change the world."

Among many other tennis accomplishments, Ashe was the first African American to win the US Open and Wimbledon, the first African American named to the US Davis Cup team, and the first African American in the tennis hall of fame.

Arthur Ashe was also a champion off the tennis court. His tennis support programs brought instruction to inner-city youths. He worked with the United Negro Fund. When Nelson Mandella was freed after 27 years of imprisonment, Ashe was the first American he asked to visit.

His motto was not to get headlines, but rather to make an impact—and make an impact he did. He was an active, outspoken crusader for human rights and AIDS research.

Arthur Ashe got the AIDS vims through a tainted blood transfusion in the early 1980s. In April of 1992 he went public with his story only after a news organization began to pursue the story. As Frank Deford said, "He joined the AIDS advocacy movement with characteristic thoroughness."

Listen to what Arthur's wife said: "Even though he lost his battle, as in his tennis days, it was how he played the game that mattered." And Ashe played the game with intensity, courage and class.

Last spring I had the pleasure of hearing Ashe speak at the MIAA tennis tournament in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Although I didn't know much about this man he seemed to me to be sincere, honest and a true friend to those close to him.

In closing I would just like to reiterate what was said Sunday morning on Sportsday: "Amen and goodbye to a friend and the noblest of souls."

Imagine the following scenario: It is 5:30 in the morning, it's cold outside, and all you want to do is curl up under the electric b l a n k e t but no, you have swimming practice!

While little boys are out riding their Schwinn bicycles with their Sentinel bags draped over their shoulders and at the same time are trying to avoid the furor of barking dogs as they deliver the morning newspapers, the Hope College Swim team is lumbering over to the Dow in their PJ's for an early morning practice.

Yesterday I had the opportunity to catch up with Monica Bullard— a member of the 1992-93 swim team.

Among other things she informed me that the swim team practices two times a day, once in the morning from 6:00-7:30 and again for a couple of hours in the late afternoon or early evening. (The swim season goes from October through March.)

Christmas is a time of "togetherness" for the team. The team arrives on campus two weeks before the rest of the students. During this time they practice four to five hours a day and since they are the only ones on campus they do virtually everything together, which includes eating, sleeping, and various recreational activities.

With such a time-demand and a lack of recognition in The Anchor, (that's my fault—I apologize to all the swimmers) I wondered why in the world a swimmer would put him or herself through such torture.

This is how Monica replied to this inquiry: "If we were doing it for recognition [hint...hint] we would

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT, Jeff Bereas works out. have quit a long time ago...we are doing it for ourselves and each other."

The swim team has a motto of always maintaining a positive mental attitude. In fact, if something negative is said during practice, the individual who uttered such negative remarks is required to do 20 push-ups. This positive mental attitude has undoubtedly contributed to their success.

In the headline I said the swimmers are a special breed, and to that end I have three words for you:

shave and taper. Before the conference league meet all hair is shavec and all energy is bottled for the big event—a process swimmers term tapering. For about a week before the meet, carbohydrates are consumed in copious quantities, more rest is allowed for the swimmers and no weights are lifted. This allows the swimmers to swim at their optimal level.

The Hope swimmers, both men and women, are a special breed bu one thing remains constant and true The Hope Swimmers are winners.

Sports Briefs Men's Swimming: In recent years the battle for first place in the MIAA men's swimming standings has been between Hope and Kalamazoo colleges. This year is no different.The teams will put unbeaten records on the line Wednesday, Feb. 10, when Hope travels to Kalamazoo. With two regular season meets remaining, Hope is bidding for its first-ever unbeaten dual meet season. The Flying Dutchmen conclude their dual meet season Saturday, Feb. 13 when they host Grand Rapids Community College.

Women's Swimming: The Flying Dutch face their stiffest test of the MIAA dual meet season Wednesday, Feb. 10, when they travel to Kalamazoo College. Last year Kalamazoo administered Hope's only dual meet defeat (121-119).

Kristen Hoving ('96) of Oak Brook, 111. qualified for the NCAA Division III national championships next month in the 500-yard freestyle (5:06.13). She has also qualified for nationals in the 1,650-yard freestyle.

Women's Basketball: The Hying Dutch will be trying to snap a four-game losing streak with a pair of MIAA contests this week.

Wednesday the Hying Dutch host Adrian College and on Saturday they travel to Olivet for a game against the winless Lady Comets (0-18/0-9).

Hope guard Katie Kowalczyk ('93) is within striking distance of the Hope single season record for three-point baskets. She has made 39 from long distance this season.

New career program in residence halls Starting in the fall of 1992, a new program out of the office of Career Planning and Placement was started in two of the residence halls on campus. This project is entitled the "Career Liaison Program," and is being utilized in Durfee and Dykstra Halls, where many first year students.

The purpose of the program is to increase awareness of the need to start career planning activities early in one's college career. Several students (listed below) have been volunteering their time in these respective halls as leaders or "salespeople" (Career Liaisons) who communicate the services of the Career Planning Office to their fellow residents and friends. Many of these Career Liaisons have received training in some of the many resources offered through Career Planning and Placement.

While talking with fellow students about these services, the Career Liaisons sometimes deliver a pamphlet summarizing services and resources of Career Planning and Placement. This brochure briefly mentions resources like the SIGI Plus computerized career guidance program and the career resource library. Kelly Carrigan, Assistant Director of Career Planning and Placement, started this program with the hope of reaching more students (especially first year students), and communicating the many resources that are available. Kelly said, "Unfortunately, students are unaware of the numerous resources we have in the office that can assist them in deciding on a major, doing an effective job search or finding an internship. The Career Liaison program has been designed to reach those students that we wouldn't reach otherwise." Currently, Kristen Hintz, the resident director of Dykstra, is supervising the program.

Dykstra Liaison Amy Lyng ('96) said, "I think it's important to really

look at what you are interested in, so that you don't have to play catch-up at the end of your college career, as a junior or senior. I talked with a friend of mine the other day, specifically about finding a good summer job in her major, and she went over to the career planning and placement office the next day."

The current Career Liaisons said they volunteered to participate in the program because of encouragement by their resident assistants.

The Liaisons claimed that the program is good preparation for additional campus leadership opportunities, and it helps them get to know the other residents they live with better. Above all, these individuals received a free career assessment during training and came to know information about career services on campus than they would not know otherwise. Many have appreciated the knowledge they have about Career Planning and Placement.

Some of the Liaisons will be involved in the upcoming "Career Night at Phelps" where there will be opportunities to play career-related games and win prizes, to try SIGI Plus, and to read many books and magazines on the job search. "Career Night at Phelps" is scheduled during dinneron Wednesday, Feb. 17, after winter break. Look for details later.

The following first-year students participate in this new project in Dykstra: Hatti Eckelbarger, Amy Lyng, Melanie Mousseau, Shannon Panszi, Jodi Schamback, Heidi Schilder, Laura Sturmfels, Janel Wehmer, Kristen Wilt. Leslie Jared ('95), who has since moved to Voorhees, and Thapelo Matenge ('95) are the Liaisons from Durfee.

Next year, the program is expected to continue, but in a slightly different format. In the meantime, look for Career Liaisons on campus that will be happy to talk to you about the resources in Hope's Career Planning and Placement.

AIDS Continued from page 1 "If I do get sick, it takes longer to get well" Ver Hage said. "Last winter I wasn't sick at all. I downhill and water-skied and mountain hiked."

Ver Hage commits much of his lime to speaking to church and school groups, striving to clarify misconceptions about AIDS. Young people are eager to talk with him, comfortable asking questions of a guy so like themselves.

"I want to try to make them more aware of the more human side and bring the reality home," he said.

"Many want to know how my friends reacted and about dating."

Ver Hage tells students he was not involved at the time of diagnosis and since has decided not to pursue a relationship.

"Most kids are more informed than many adults," he said. "Adults have a more negative attitude that it won't happen to them, but if they're not open to their kids, the possibility of their kids being exposed to this is a very serious reality.

"Every day across the nation 85 people contract the virus; in Ottawa County 23 people have been diagnosed. Sixteen have already died.

And there are between 100-200 people we don't even know about."

But each day brings new hope of finding a cure for HIV and AIDS. Patients thought to live only a few years after contracting full blown AIDS are beating the odds, living 10, sometimes 12 years longer than expected.

But Ver Hage insists the answer lies in prevention, not treatment.

"Go ahead and look at me. Go ahead, look. I am the face of AIDS and you'd never know it. I challenge you toeducate and inform yourselves and each other because AIDS is a disease that will effect everyone."
