PROGRESSIVE ART Sister Corita, an Iowa-born nun who teaches what has been called "the most progressive art course in the country" at Immaculate Heart College, is a personal friend to several members of the faculty. She is known as an individualist and refuses to give out biographical information. Her talk will be given February 5 in the Student Union,

"Students who receive afternoon appointments need not worry about closed classes. The rate at which the students will be registered will be much more l eisure l y than it has been. They will move through at ap· proximately 75 per hour," said Dean Burton. Evening students will not be registering in the day time. They will have two weeks to register for their c l asses, from January 18 through 28. (Fridays excluded) This, as well as the fact that fewer students register in the spring will also make things easier. GRADES RELEASED Class schedules will not be available until the first day of registration, but grades will be available January 25 in the library. This will be the first

Final plans are now being completed for the organization of the Young Jeffersonians. The purpose of the club will be to promote the ideals of Thomas Jefferson through a magazine, "The Palomar Jeffersonian Jour· nai': 'according to a member of the club.

The magazine will also take editorial positions when Jeffersonian beliefs are chal· lenged and attacked. APPROVAL NEEDED Before the magazine can be published, the approval of the Student Public ations Board will be needed. After this approval is secured, the club will set up an editorial board to publish the magazine. This board will consist of five members. Two will be elected by the Executive Com· mittee, two more will be ap· pointed by the political scie nce department, and the last shall be appointed by the ASB President. A member of the club's organizing committee said, "We hope, through the Journal, to give students the opportunity to learn of how Thomas Jefferson would have felt about modern day problems. We hope to discuss such is· sues as medicare, the United Nations, aid to education , and a id to other countries in· cludingthe war in VietNam." The adviser to the club, who must be a member of the po. litical science department, wll be Pat Archer, instructor at Palomar. Th e next organizati ona l

Sister Mary Corita Next Humanities Speaker

Some of the bottlenecks that slowed down registration last semester will be eliminated this spring according to Dean Robert Burton. Day students will register January 25, 26, a nd 27. But that will be the final step ..in the new system. Students must see counselors a nd faculty advisors before these dates in order to fill out tentative class pro· grams. ''Some students object to a counseling session because they misinterpret its purpose," said the Dean. "We don't want to tell the student what cours. es to take. We just want to make sure he doesn't take any he won't need, or overlook one he must have for his major." STUDENT CONVENIENCE The student can then take ' these signed programs to the Student Personnel Office . There will be some paper work at this stop, but the nice thing about it is that the stu· dent can do itlpretty much at his own convenience. Mrs.

Concerning the purpose of the new Code, Jim Logsdon, .ASB President, said, "We feel that with a definite publicity code and an effective publicity committee, the students can accept the responsibility to police all on-campus publicity. This responsibility formerly was part of the administration's work."

DONORS NEEDED

Blood Bank Program Initiated By Council The recently suggested Palomar Blood Bank has become a reality. A week ago Monday the ASB Council voted to ini· tiate Blood Bank program, with ICC being given the job of maintenance while the Coun· cil itself would do the dis· tributing. TWO PINTS When discussion of the sub· ject started Joseph Malik, Director of Student Activities, r eported that he had been in touch with the San Di e go Blood Bank and that they had told him that the school had an account with two pints of

blood in it. He continued to say that this original program had been started by Dr. John Schettler Assistant Superin· tendent, but had become little known and little used. COMMUNITY SERVICE Malik went on to report that at the time the first major subscription is made a minimum of 100 donors wlll be needed. "The Blood Bank will be a major community service of the college , and will benefit the whole of north county," summed up Jim MacKe nzie, ASB Vice President. (continued on page 3)

which is now, .in reality, de· fun ct. 3. More effective use of the bulletin boards and other informational techniques to en. courage participation in stu· dent func,tions. The bulletin boards which we know have not been used. 4. A "student of the Month" award given to a student in recognicion of outstanding achievement and service to Palomar College. This is in line with our policy of gaining public ity for the achievements of Palomar College and its students. 5. A concentrated effort to gain recognition for Palomar College in our surrounding area. There has been a definite lack of off.campus publ icity for Palomar College. This would involve closer coordination with local newspapers and news media to see that Palomar receives the p ub· licity it deserves. Better com( conti nued on page 3 J
