"EDUCATION FOR LIFE" by Ted Schaap

Voice of The Campus To the S t u d e n t s :

To the E d i t o r :

As Hope College was assigned the task of playing host to the s t a t e t o u r n a m e n t of college orators, which occurred last F r i d a y , March 5, the local speech f r a t e r n ity was determined t h a t we should be the best possible of hosts. The experience h a s been over the y e a r s t h a t when the o r a t o r s f r o m the various schools attend the s t a t e contest, they speak to virtually empty rooms (except for the few j u d g e s ) , and the host school student body generally a p p e a r s t o be somewhat oblivious to the outstanding event t h a t is taking place. So the local Pi K a p p a Delta speech f r a t e r n i t y decided t h a t we should t r y to play the good host. T h i s of course required effort on the p a r t of many people. Successful a s it was, the event could not have been so if it were not f o r the generous cooperation of many students and faculty who actually donated t h e i r services and s u p p o r t on a completely voluntary basis. To all of these people, thank-you, very much.

I am one of the countless Hope s t u d e n t s who enjoy reading t h e Dire E v e n t s column. I a m also one of those who believe in the p res s and its powers. If certain persons on this c a m p u s can not persevere the humor which "The T i g e r " a i m s at certain of their a d m i n i s t r a t i v e acts, then perhaps we had b e t t e r stop publication of t h e A N C H O R . The only people who could be h u r t by the columnist are those who think too highly of themselves.

COLLEGE

Before p r e s e n t i n g another unaccountable discourse, I want to thank the m a n y for their encoura g e m e n t . The only "Dire E v e n t " now is t h a t I shall continue to write this column. A N D A W A Y W E GO! I wonder how m a n y of us a r e a w a r e of the glorious history of our college? E v e r y student should read this with care—you never know when it m i g h t come in handy, yak, yak, yak. In 1492, the Chinese were building t h e " G r e a t Wall of China," more commonly called " H a d r i a n ' s Wall," and an eminent American, namely. Dr. Van Raalte, decided he would build s o m e t h i n g to rival this insignificant Chinese endeavor. He chose to build Hope College. This w a s s m a r t . A f t e r he had assembled his " E r e c t o r S e t " and finished building a " C y c l o t r o n " in t h e Science Building, he turned to Daniel Boone and said, "This is the Anchor of my Hope." F r o m this s t a t e m e n t we obtained our motto, " E x Libras," which t r a n s l a t e d means, " W i t h o u t L i b e r t y . " This was not s m a r t . Dr. Phillip Phelps was the next p r e s i d e n t (in 1513 B.C.), but he was assassinated by f o u r P u e r t o Rican exchange students. Under the F i f t h A m e n d m e n t they pleaded innocent and were campused f o r one week-end. This w a s s m a r t ? ? ? The building of Van Vleck Hall was a keystone to progress. It was designed by Sydnesy Carton who loved "Bastilles." The building received f a m e as an Indian F o r t . The words "Van Vleck" t r a n s l a t e d f r o m the Dutch means, "The Wreck." In 1776, the college was divided into two political c a m p s—the " W h i g s " and t h e "Yahoos." The " Y a h o o s " got t o g e t h e r some of their f r a t b r o t h e r s and ran t h r o u g h the g i r l s ' dorms. The " W h i g s " were mad because they weren't included. They q u i t school and founded Calvin College. They never did a m o u n t to much. In 1890, the college installed concrete sidewalks. This was s m a r t . The sidewalks a r e still in use as Ice S k a t i n g Rinks. The college h a s since r e g r e t t e d this, however, because t h e s t u d e n t s and faculty insist on d i r t y i n g up the walks with blood and flesh. The college now being 436 years old in 1934, decided to s t a r t enrolling students. Marilyn Monroe enrolled. This m a d e a find S t u d e n t Body. This also was s m a r t . In 1940, Hope obtained a new Dean of Men whose n a m e was " A g a m e m n o n . " H e was burned in effigy. F r o m this point on, Hope g r e w into a university, but one t h i n g became definite and holds t r u e today in 1954, and a f a m o u s poet expressed this feeling when he said, " W h e r e t h e r e ' s life t h e r e ' s Hope." By Elizabeth B a r r e t Tennyson

With the all i m p o r t a n t College Sing completed, the f r a t e r n i t i e s on Hope's c a m p u s are t u r n i n g their interest to joint meetings with the sororities. At least these joint meeting should prove more stimulating t h a n the countless practice sessions t h a t go along with competing in the All College Sing. The Knickerbockers recently instituted a project which they believe will aid in establishing better contact with the alumni of their f r a t e r n i t y . Ray Vedder and Don Shull have been appointed to prep a r e a news-letter t h a t will be sent to all f o r m e r Knicks, informing them of the present activities and goals of Knickerbockers. The Knicks are p r e p a r i n g f o r a n u m b e r of joint-meetings and daten i g h t s in the f u t u r e . No definite plans however have been made as yet. The Arcadian f r a t e r n i t y is the new All-College Sing champion, winning t h e event with " S o n g of the Open Road." Congratulations to the f r a t e r n i t y and to their director, Nevin Webster! The A r k i e s will hold a jointmeeting with their sister sorority, Theta, this F r i d a y evening, March 12. Sam H o f m a n h a s been appointed to take c h a r g e of the p r e p a r a t i o n s .

Helpful Hints on How To 'Pass' Thru College ( A C P ) — F o l l o w i n g arc 10 suggestions from Robert Tyson, of the H u n t e r College (New York) department of psychology and philosophy, on how to stay in college: 1. Bring the professor newspaper clippings dealing with his subject. Demonstrates feeling interest and gives him timely items to mention in class. If you can't find clippings dealing with his subject, bring in any clippings at random. He thinks everything deals with his subject. 2. Look alert. T a k e notes eagerly. If you look at your watch, don't stare at it unbelieving and shake it. 3. Nod frequently and mumer, " H o w t r u e ! " T o you this seems exaggerated; to him it's quite objective. 4. Sit in front, near him. (Applies only if you intend to stay awake.) If you're going to all the trouble of making a good impression, you might as well let him know who you are, especially in a large class. 5. L a u g h at his jokes. You can tell. If he looks up from his notes and smiles expectantly, he has told a joke. 6. Ask for outside reading. You don't have to read it. Just ask. 7. If you must sleep, arrange to be called at the end of the hour. It creates an unfavorable impression if the rest of the class has left and you sit there alone, dozing. 8. Be sure the book you read during lecture hours looks like a book from the course. If you do m a t h in psychology class and psychology class, match books for size and color. 9. Ask any questions you think he can answer. Conversely, avoid announcing t h a t you have found the answer to a question he couldn't answer, and in your brother's second grade reader at that. 10. Call attention to his writing. Produces an exquisitely pleasant experience connected with you. If you know he's written a book or an article, ask in class if he wrote it. As to whether or not you w a n t to do some work in addition to all this, well it's controversial and up to the individual.

Cagers Close Campaign — Cop Couple Even though deprived of a third s t r a i g h t MIAA basketball title, the Hope Dutchmen closed out a not unsuccessful season in r a t t l i n g off two impresive victories in their final encounters, crushing Alma, 1)7-71, and bumping Calvin, 100-90. Both conference tilts, the wins enabled t h e Dutch to snag a second place tie on an 11-3 record, and to h a n g up a 12-7 over-all season performance. The Alma Scots, upset victors over Hope earlier in the y e a r in their own gym, hung on f o r a little more t h a n a q u a r t e r before slipping behind the well-balanced power of their hosts. Ahead by 15-14 at the first gun, the Alma crew was jolted by a blistering 38-point second q u a r t e r spree by the Dutch, in which Will Rink and Bob Hendrickson poured in 11 and 9 respectively. A sophomore-dominated team, the Scots a g a i n showed promise of being a title contender next year, though the squad is hampered somewhat hampered by a lack of height. Guard George Fox was high f o r the losers with 23, followed by Bud Miller with 20. F o r Hope Hendrickson netted 22, while Rink added 17. Behind a consistent, effective f a s t b r e a k attack he Dutch humbled con%^ence champ and traditional rival Calvin in one of the better-played contests in the Armory this season. A f t e r the Knig h t s dumped in the first f e w points, the Hope machine began to roll and t h r e a t e n e d f o r several minutes to turn the f r a y into a rout, leading at one point 19-9.

Opening minute play in both the third and f o u r t h periods saw Calvin creep up behind the Dutchmen, in the latter instance nabbing a short-lived one-point lead, but each t i m e the victors managed to increase the spread to a s a f e total. Hope freezing tactics and resulting f o u l s f r o m the d es p erat e Knights in the last moments helped the Dutchmen, who popped seven s t r a i g h t f r e e throws, to build the total up toward the three-figure mark, which was finally achieved at the buzzer by Hendrickson on a follow-up tip.
