Charles Creasy Contemporary University, Student Program Plans are now underway for a nationwide Teach-In this coming Spring, on Wednesday, April 22, concerning the grave crisis facing the quality of the environment and the quality of life in America today.

The aim of the National Teach-In is to encourage students across the country to take the initiative in organizing environmental teach-ins on their campuses, and associated efforts in their communities , on April 22nd .

Successful teach-ins on all campuses on the same day will have dramatic impact on the environmental conscience of the nation. They will be immensely eff ective as an educational effort in arousing public opinion concerning necessary steps to protect our environment and establish quality on a par with quantity as a goal of American life .

There is no question that in the long run, the ·environmental challenge is the greatest faced by mankind .

Distinguished sci e ntific authorities have been w !'r.ning for yea r s that mankind is rapidly destroying the v ery habitat on which he depend s for his survival.

In addition, population continue s to increase worldwidewhile scientists warn that we may hav e already passed su stainabl e population levels. All acro ss the country, and world wide, increasing numbers of citizens are voicing the same in te n se concern as has been so eloqu ·ently expressed by the ecologists and other environmentalists.

Yet, many are still not aware problerr:is of the environmental being created by our advancing technology.

Federally-financed projects- such as the supersonic transport plane-raise grave question s a bout possible new environmental dangers.

Many r es pected scientists and national leaders have indicated that although some positive steps have been taken, toxic, persistent pesticides are still accumulating in the world endestrucvironment , wreaking tion on fish and wildlife-and threatening man himself. Is the price we pay for these products in terms of their effect upon our environment worth the benefits we obtain from them?

The pollution of our rivers and Jakes , and of the air in our urban areas continues to accelerate. Suburban sprawl continues to destroy vast scenic and recreational resources, with little heed being given to plans to create 'workable environments. And the millions trapped in our urban and rural ghettos continue to suffer the worst of the massive air, water, land and noise pollution.

Who will finally bear the brunt of this tragic irresponsibility? The new generation now in school, the generation which

will soon inherit the world en vironment. The time has come for all citizens to begin thinking about the basi .c questions raised by technological advances and environmental degradation .

Students in America and the world , who are deeply concerned with the' hard choices wnich their generation faces , are uniquely well suited to take initiatives in exploring with all citizens the problems created by man's growing impact upon his environment .

It is hoped that the National Teach-In next April 22nd will provide students with the opportunity to accomplish this objective . Hundreds of teach-ins on that day would bring together for the first time on a national scale the many young people who are already concerned about the environment, and would involve and educate many more as well.

In addition to bringing this widespread involvement, the teach-ins would present information, draw the issues, stimulate plans for action, and demonstrate the strength of concern for a livable world.

Furthermore, the environmental teach-ins present an unprescedented opportunity for the involvement by student initiative of communities, organizations, leaders, and concerned ciHzens of all generations in a common, nonpartisan effort to meet a problem of far-reaching consequence .

For more information please contact the National Teach-In Office : Environmental TeachIn, Inc., Room 600, 2100 M Street, N.W., Washington, D.C ., 20037. The telephone number after December 8 will be 202293-6960.

She graduated from Cabrini in 1962 and since then has been a teacher at the Hancock School in Norristown .

ASIS Availa.ble for Interested Students Since its founding in 1958 the American Student Information Service has successfully placed thousands of North American students in paying jobs all over the world .

The overwhelming success of ASIS is based, to a great extent, on three factors. First, ASIS is the only organization that guarantees a paying job in Europe to every student. Secondly, ASIS is the only organization that maintains a headquarters and placement offices throughout Europe . Thirdly, participation in the ASIS program includes a job guarantee with Government approval, all necessary working papers, insurance, living accommodations, permits, etc. and supervision while in Europe.

Working and studying in Europe is truly the best way for a young person to see Europe today, and in so doing add a unique chapter to the story of his life. It can rightfully be said that to undertake such an adventure in this day and age will reap mor ·e cultural benefits than ever before and help the goals of ASIS to promote

LOQUITUR

Paare 2

LOQUITUR] Cabrini IS Growing Congratulations to the Academic Council for the policy of having the students responsible for their class attendance, and for co-operating with the departments in reducing the requirements to enable the students to take more electives. At least, we have obtained some academic freedom.

'Cabrini has come a long way since it opened in 1957, especially in the last three years. From a small body of forty-three full time students and a faculty of eleven, one hundred and sixteen acres of ground, no slacks on campus, early curfews, lights out at 11, mandatory meals in the Mansion dining room, closed· Mondays, censorship, mandatory Mass, May crowning, October rosary, investiture, a trustee board of nuns, and seven majors; we have advanced to a student body of three hundred eighty-six and forty-three members of the faculty with seven buildings and one hundred sixteen acres of ground, no dress code, late curfews, all nighter if one wishes, phones in the rooms, continental breakfasts with a choice of food, no church requirements, freedom of the press, laymen on the board of trustees, ten majors, unlimited cuts, and room for electives.

The college has suffered growing pains. There has been, and most likely will still be student unrest, faculty friction, and administrative confusion. This is all part of change and is healthy, so do not become discouraged.

Do not abuse these freedoms, however. Freedom entails responsibility. As a college community, we must maintain a mature outlook on the situations. We now have obligations to live up to. Progress is the word, not regression, and we must try to keep it that way.

There is always room for improvement, but at least, Cabrini is beginning to look like a true college.

Student Letters & Opinions ABOUT FR. RUDY ...

Some people don't known a good thing when they see one. be so Can t})e Administration blind? I am speaking, of course, of Father Rudy. Why doesrft such a brilliant man have a po~ition on the faculty?

Yours truly, Eileen Fiver

Loquitur's Response The question actually being asked is "What is a chaplain?"

-Must he be relegated to a tiny office emerging only for his usual priestly d u t i e s which could certainly be handled by a visiting priest?

Father Rudy is a most enlightening man and in my estimation, too valuable to not be an active member of our Theology department.

A group of us had the pleasure of having dinner with Father last Friday evening an d we w e r e all in unanimous agreement that we 1 e a r n e d more about God and Christianity _across the dinner table than in our endless theology courses.

I am sure that Cabrini College prides itself on academic excellence. How can they then, in all conscience, deny us the wisdom of a most qualified and liberal twentieth century theoligian. I'm ure if Father could spend thirty years among primitive Indians, he could convince quite a few of us that Christian-

ity is not losing relevance in our lives. And quite a few of us need the convincing!

Linda Crumlish '71

THANKS ARE IN O~DER FOR SR. BARBARA I wish to congratulate Sr. Barbara in making a giant step in academic freedom. Let us all exercise our academic maturity and keep going to the class·es ' worth attending.

Growth

Is Slow

I would like to make a statement that might shatter many student's present ideas about the state of affairs, and perhaps even shock some other students, and maybe even provoke anger in others. I am willing to take the risk that is involved. The statement is: growth is a slow process. I do not think that I am wrong in saying that some students really get terriby annoyed if drastic changes · aren't made overnight. After one or two "sounding offs" . in the auditorium with Mother Barbara, or after a few polls are sent around for the students to sign.

I think that this general attitude was more than confirmed by certain articles in the last issue of Loquitur. Unfortunately, the "utter hopelessness" of the situation is down in black and white for everyone to see .

I say unfortunately because with such a prevailing attitude and

spjrit...of agitation, not too much can be constructively accomplish ·ed.

Just for the record, let me refresh a few memories. All of the following changes have occured in not quite four years.

The council of college affairs was formed which so far has been responsible for the abolishment of the dress code and the cut system. We are now free to take a number of electives, and the pass-fail system of grading is permitted for electives . A cut down in the number of Theology and Philosophy credits was made. As for nonacademic changes, the board on student conduct was formed to protect the students and also the drastic changes have occured in the area. These few things that I have mentioned have all occured within four years.

Growth. is a slow process, yet it has left many students far behind.

Put Your Opinion in Printl

l

By Linda Crumlish Cabrini College fosters numerous clubs and non-academic organizations, namely Ch2ss, Philosophy, Literary, Cast and Script, Theology, Biology, Math, Glee and Social Action clubs. There are extremely worthwhile projects, but suffer acutely from poor membership. Club membership is open to everyone, so why are clubs here so poorly supported?

I fe~l the reason for poor attendance at club meetings is due to a general lack of interest on the part of most . As a matter of fact, I myself am too, apathetic to think of a r.eason for my non-attendance.

My sympathies to the existing clubs for at least trying.

- Marietta Pratico History '71

......

Apathy exists within club organizations themselves.

Club membership is not a matter of making time, for if the club was interesting enough, people would make time. There is a general attitude of non-enthusiasm or club activities don't have sufficient publicity. Most clubs don't··

have a worthwhile purpose.

- Mary Lou Tranchitella Psychology

* * * I like to belong to clubs, but I just don't have the time because of my school work.

- Susan Schon English '70

... ... *

The clubs d on' t sponsor enough activities of interest . I am a merriber of the Glee Club and we were never able to travel until this year. There was not enough interest for the school to sponsor it . Clubs need more advertisini as has been done lately, but this adverti~ing must be pushed.

Flat Earth Society Rises A new organization is being formed on this campus.

The Cabrini Flat Earth Society will have its first meeting in the Math Department office 4 :30, Thursday, February 26, 1970.

We welcome as members all sensible people who know as we do that the world really is flat. While we do not anticipate any concerted attempt to push misguided round worlders off the edge, we do feel a genuine need to reaffirm the simple truth that the earth is really flat. We Flat Earthers have too long contented ourselves with merely knowing the truth; we now need to publish again across the land. Our opening lecture will be "Math(:!matical Evidences for Establishing the Non-Riemannian Projection for Maps of This Flat Earth."

Please come. Watch your step.

As a basic premise for much thought in nearly all social circles today, the idea that the

Earth is flat is far more prevalent than is generally recognized. We are determined to rectify this second-class citizenship that we have unfortunately acquired. We need to get to know one another better before to.o many important issues have slipped from our grasp. Flat Earther philosophy is a pervasive influence in our lives, but the Round Worlders are taking all the credit. We can build a brighter future by helping one another. At Cabrini we have already lost our dress code and compulsory class attendance.

Negligence, our negligence, is at fault. Faculty, Students, Friends all, please come to our opening s·ession, and bring your ideas for future discussion topics.

DEAR CRABBY, What do you do when professors flirt with you?

- Offended DEAR OFFENDED, Invite them to your smoker to play cards.

I have never known why the urge to write down your innermost thoughts, possesses so many people - now I know. Those intimate feelings you dare not tell your dearest friend, are told by a pen to a piece of blank, unemotional paper. Although it may not be listening, you are telling, thus alleviating a very burdened heart. You . would be surprised how long the heart can conceal mounting pain, but one day suddenly, it is so full that you feel that it will break. And one day, it does break. Although you recover, seemingly completely, a scar remains with you for the rest of your life. It is mostly passive but a little thought or memory can send a pain through. your "healed over scar."

It is not pleasant to have a future full of memories to look forward to. There are times when you wish there was no future for you at all, rather than the one you foresee.

I am finally aware. I understand my predicament but it is now time to accept it. The latter part is the hardest.

It may take a month, a year, or the rest of your life - you may never accept it at all. For your sake, l hope you <io.

The thing that was so beautiful yesterday is bruised and beaten today. You look around to see where it has fled so suddenly. Then, you search frantically to see how it has gotten away - that thing that you had been cultivating so carefully, so long .

But you realize it is gone, and you are alone. you ~re alone within an enclosed courtyard, unable to see · the tmy flaw in the wall. It is not a completely hopeless lot - yours.

Spring is just around the corner · and summer immediately behind spring - and if I know anything about summer, the sun will beat down on you generously. We'll wait and see what summer offers in restitution for what winter has taken away.

By Norma Garbo "When you're weary and feeling small", I suggest a simple remedy; listen intensly to Simon and Garfunkel 's "Bridge Over q'roubled Water" . If the impact of the lyrics doesn't get to you, the music itself will .

Their new album of the same name has just been released on Columbia Records, comple .te with words and a few other tear-jerking, smile-cracking tunes, some of which are familiar; "The Boxer", and an old Everly Brothers hit of the fifties, "Bye-Bye Love".

Never has a song so moved people in their emotions towards the interpretation of a relationship. For each person a different sensation may be felt in the worcfs, "Like a bridge · over troubled water, I will lay me down ." The following are the responses made by six girls after listening to this phrase :

.........

"In helping a person over a troubled area in his life, you become a bridge of friendship ."

...

..

"One person giving his whole self for another. "

...

"A bridging tween despair cy."

...

of the gap beand desponden-

..

"A feeling of love between fellow men; good friends would do anything for each other."

...

. .

...

"If you have an honest relationship with someone, you put his interest above you r own ."

...

...

"A true friend, like a bridge , is stable and firm, and I trans-=ec:: r~ "'1;s~ -;; concept, :liaT ro bled times I should remain stable and firm to everyone ."

... ... ...

Paul Simon , in wr iting these beautifully sensual word s, must have truely experienced a friendship to its fullest and highest capacity.

I can only have one wish at this moment, and tha t is for all the beautiful people in the world to have this song ·dedicated to them by a friend , just as I dedicated its meaning, with t'o my all of its uncertainty, closest of friends .

Charity Begins At Home

by Susan Sullivan Although I am not an Education major, I, too, look forward to Friday afternoons at the Aberdeen Avenue Rehabilitation Center . During the therapy sessions , seniors are given ample opportunity to unwind from a hectic week of student teaching . They are given a complete recap of the events on campus from those of us fortunate (?) enough to stay within the ivycovered gates during the week .

Other students eagerly pursue their studies for the following week (I must admit to be ing partial to by Ethics text as the most suitable A.A .R:C. companion) . One enthusiastic Ed . major has received a letter of commendation for being the first student to successfully type a lesson plan at the center, located in our native Wayne.

For the athletically-minded, physical therapy is in order .

The more · daring individuals show their skill at the dart board, while the socially-minded are content to attempt a game of pinochle or I Doubt lt .

Those of us who enjoy a song now and then (as an anti-depressant) actively pursue our vocal talents .

Several seniors have completed the basic training program (with .flying colors) at the A.A.RC . have been polled as to the inherent success of the program. The comments have ranged from "I think it's high time we instituted such mean. ingful field work," to "It's a class I'd never cut-bar none ."

The director at the center h'"'as high hopes for the girls. He remarked , "The seniors have been very cooperative, and they have made remarkable progress . I am sure that by May they will be out from under the table ."

We're SorrJI' Mother'Mac Dear

Mother

Immaculata.

We Jost our game to Rosemont tonight, and even though you'\'e always been one of our most Joyal fans, you would not have enjoyed watching the Rosemonsters roll all over Cabrini ·in the fourth quarter of this game .

Mother Mac, that fourth quarter would have unsettled the bones i'n ygur broken leg.· Rosemont just made a shambles of our varsity's valiant effort to win. And so in nine years Cabrini still hasn't been able to defeat the Rosemont varsity.

But, Mother Mac, we did try hard . Until that fourth quarter, everyone on . our varsity was playing a whale of a defensive game.

Rosemont never got more than ten points ahead of us.

They worked the ball around, looking for lapses in our defense, and they didn't find many . We covered the sides, the middle, the corners, and the key. They pulled ahead only by shooting many jump shots over us, and by making an unbelievable percentage of their field goal tries.

As for our offense, points didn't come easily. We had a very rough time penetrating Rosemont's defense. The only free shots they allowed us were from outside a twenty-foot radius. Jane Sefranek made quite a few of that variety and a game total of 13 points.

Jane "Lex" Menendez and Rey Spellman added eight and six points respectively to help Cabrini keep her pride.

And, Mother, our foul shooting wasn 't bad either . We mad ·e 64 per cent of our shots. So that doesn't explain why we lost by 20 points.

The fact is; Ro:;emont scored 25 points in the fourth quarter while we only garnered 14.

You might say our defense fell apart, or we lost our competitive spirit.

Jane Sefranek says she lost her aggressive determination late in the third quarter when she was slapped with a technical foul for questioning an official's call.

Whatever the reason , the fact remains, we lost 53 to 33. Mother, did you forget to pray for us that night?

Our record is 5-3 now, and we have six games to go. So we all hope your leg heals quickly and that you'll be out of the hospital in time to see us play at least one game this season .

We promise, we won't lose any more games as badly as we lost to Rosemont.

Get well soon!

FreeUniversity At St.Joseph's CoUege From St. Joseph's College Inspired by the· success of others, some students at St. Joseph's have decided to form a Free University. The Free University does not operate in competion with the regular instructional program of the College, but as a supplement to it. Its purpose is to increase the learning experience of its participants. The philosophy of the Free University is "free", that is, informal atmosphere, no credits given, no grading, no registration or fees required, participation open to all interested students and teachers .

There are many questions to be dealt with in an organization such as this. The first naturally being, "Why a:Free University?" The answer is that there are some worthwhile courses which just cannot be offered through the established College curriculum for a variety of reasons, that is, teachers may not have the usual qualifications .

It offers a forum for students and teachers who feel that they have a relevant course that js not offered here.

The teachers will necessarily volunteer their services; therefore, the only funds needed will be for publicity and supplies, and perhaps,• guest speakers .

These financial outlays will be covered through voluntary contributions.

Registration will be request-

Cheers For Our Cheerleade·rs

by Linda Muhlenhaupt I'd like to commend the J.V .

Cheerleaders on the tremendous job they are doing this year. Their spirit is outstanding. They are Terri Panicola as captain, Tracy Cook, Mary Ann DiMarsico, Ann Marie Pullock, Dottie Deaton, Ruth Accordino.

Varsity cheerleaders this year are Linda Muhlenhaupt, Suz anne Horn, Toni Guerra, Barbara Frey, Vicki Moglia, Mary McLaughlin, Terry Costello and Kathy Rummler. We miss Mary Cavanagh, Terry Warner, Gina DePaolis and Renee Devine Hill -who had to resign because of student teaching .

There has been much enthusiasm at our games this year and we hope this will continue until the end of the season . The team is doing great, so let's keep giving them our wholehearted support.

ed but not required, and if money is needed for financial backing, there will be a voluntary assessment.

Everyone is invited to come.

It is hoped that there will be a definite increase in the learning experience if people from all of society rather that from one facet of it can engage in the give and take of the Free University.

There will be neither grades nor credit based on the idealistic assumption that there are fields where people can be stimulated not by marks but rather by a simple desire for knov.;ledge. The courses will be mostly of a seminar type with free exchange of ideas.

In short, the emphasis is on "Free."

Everybody's Got To Go Sometime

by Janet Czarnecki Why don't you plan on going soon? I mean ;why not go to see the next play sponsored by the Cast and Script Society. The club will be taking a trip to sunny Wayne to view the Wayne Footlighters production of the Broadway Comedy You Know I Can't Hear You With the Water's Running. Mrs. Brenner, of the business office, has been a patron of the Footlighters for many years. She said that "they are one of the oldest amateur theatrical gr o up s around today." She continued to say that "you cannot really expect to see the same type of production you would in New York, because of lack of facilities, but you will see many memorable performances."

In Mrs. Brenner's own words, they really do a "bang up job ."

If anyone is interested in the play, please sign the list on the Cast and Script bulletin board

by February 25. Tickets for the preformance on · Saturday, March 7 are $1.00. Please join us.

From The PresideQt •••

by Nancy Gorevin Since this column's intention is to keep a running tab of student activities and . happenings, in what way could 1 begin other than to express an overwhelming feeling of prid 2 to Sister Barbara and all those responsible for making the new cut system possible . The reason for the feeling of pride is because the college community here at Cabrini has been regarded as a student body, mature enough to be awarded such a meaningful privilege, academically and individually .

From this corner comes a fervent wish for a conscientious exercise of th i s privilege .

Again, a word of thanks for such a wonderful bate of confidence .

Meanwhile back at S.G.A. ...

I guess by now you've discovered that we are once again using sign out cards. The books were becoming confusing , illegible , and some names initiated beyond recognition , so to provide for greater expediency , we decided to revert back to last year's system . Notices have been posted, so if you encounter an y difficulty either read the memos or consult your local S.G.A . member.

Fact has it that people are disgruntled because rumors seem to "fly" over this campus.

Through the office of Dean of Students and Student Government have come memorandums stating the facts of certain instances which if not quelled, might have really been open to embellishment.

These wer e posted on bulletin boards in the dorms and in Sacred Heart Hall. We will continu t! to do this in order to cut the grapevine at its roots.

The Intercollegiate Council met at Manor Junior College on the 11th. We are jointly sponsoring a mixer on March 13 at La Salle College. If you are in the area on that date please stop in. We look for your support so that the Council may be able to go on to bigger and better things.

The Elections Committee has been receiving replies from area colleges concerning electoral procedures.

They have been considering all returns and are trying to incorporate th~m into a good working system . I believe we can look forward to some real professional campaigning in the fall.

Overheard at the Holy Fam-

ily - Cabrini game re : student life and privilege . . . "You kids have really got a good thing going . You know we at Holy Family use Cabrini as a guiding light." I mean. what better rapport could a college community hope for ? . . .

With this thought in mind . . .
