What Is A "Liberal" Education? Hope College is widely advertised as a "liberal a r t s " college. Most students assume that this title merely differentiates our institution from many others that offer curriculums in technical and professional areas. This is very true but a liberal or liberal a r t s education involves much more. It involves certain attitudes and activities on the p a r t of those being educated — attitudes and activities that are shamefully absent on our campus. The most obvious deficiency in the make-up of all but a few Hope students is the absence of t h a t real hunger and thirst f o r knowledge and truth. Most Hope students believe they are doing their professors a f a v o r by attending class or doing outside work, activities t h a t are most inconvenient. If these people were truly scholars, the wild horses so o f t e n referred to could not draig them away from classes nor could anything hinder them from attending the many cultural programs offered here. Another serious deficiency, closely related to the previous one, is a lack of mental activity — the complete absence of t h a t questioning spirit so characteristic of all great scholars. The Fresno, California, Junior College Rampage, in commenting on this phenomenon, recently stated t h a t "They (the college students of today) receive information from their teachers and texts as if they were in a vacuum. No attempt is made to question an authority, information is accepted as completely factual and beyond memorizing it, no f u r t h e r thought is given to it." Even more pathetic than the student who exhibits no mental activity whatsoever, is the student whose mental activity is channeled in one direction. Perhaps an illustration would clarify this point. Consider the student who arrives at Hope with a complicated system of "beliefs" (I prefer to call them prejudices) packed away in his suitcase. Usually they reflect the views of his parents, minister, or home community — whether t h a t be Orange City, Iowa, or New York City. His academic endeavors indicate a great deal of effort, but when he leaves Hope he is not any more educated than before he came. W h y ? Because his learning was so one sided. In four years he absorbed only that knowledge which tended to strengthen the prejudices he brought with him. Anything that did not suit his tastes or was outside of his experience was immediately labeled sin and modernistic or stodgy and hypocritical, depending once again on whether he hails from New York City or Orange City, Iowa. Even if a student, a f t e r graduation, spends the rest of his life in his hometown, wouldn't it be better f o r him to a t least have some idea of "how the other half lives" than to remain steeped in provinicalism ? During the f o u r years when the contributions of all the poets, theologians, philosophers, statesmen, and scientists are filtering through his mind, is it better f o r a student to absorb all t h a t is true or all that is convenient? Perhaps it is too much trouble to be constantly re-examining our beliefs, amending and revising them in the process of incoroprating new knowledge. Perhaps it is not a "wise" activity during these days when conformity and social acceptance are so prominent. Such a process of growth by no means requires the sacrifice of individualism freedom of choice, or even Chamber of Commerce type boating about one's hometown. Nor does it involve any sort of compromise with sin. It does involve the careful examination of all the culture to which we a i e exposed, a wareness of ideas much more profound other than tiiose of our petty systems, and recognition of the right of people everywhere to adhere to those ideas. Duiing the present conflict of idealogies nothing is of more prime importance than a truly liberal education. F.F.

Dear Editor: A f t e r reading t h e editorial in the February 28 issue of the Anchor, we found ourselves with mixed emotions. We f e l t t h a t the tongue lashing to the student body was very timely. We have felt the lack of student support f o r many of Council's programs throughout the year. For example, we were asked by a large number of the student body to help secure more tickets f o r the Messiah. Meetings were held and much time consumed to fulfill this request. A f t e r the request was granted by the administration, only forty of the group of almost threehundred students even went to the Messiah. Action such as this upon the p a r t of the students is very discouraging to student representatives. One can see t h a t through the use of diplomacy and bargaining in this case, a s in many others. Student Council is not a puppet of the administration. One must consider, however, that t h e ultimate control on any campus or university lies within the administration. The status of the Student Council, as defined by its constitution, therefore, is to represent the views of the students to the faculty and administration. Mere words upon paper and elected officials alone do not guarantee the veiws of an entire body, unless t h a t body has an interest in, and supports the unit established f o r expression of the majority views. With this in mind we wish to point out t h a t the meetings of Student Council are open to You — t h e student Body. —Anna Geitner —Bob Lesniak

Dear Editor: W e learned f r o m t h e last issue of the Anchor that "National Library Week" is to be observed March 16-22, 1958. "Wake Up And Read" — the announcement read — "We live in a complicated and difficult time. We must be wellinformed if we are to survive, and as a democratic nation we depend on knowledge as we never have before." In light of this, is it not somewhat incongrous t h a t our library remains closed on Friday and Saturday evenings? It is our contention t h a t the library is the focal point of a college's academic program. It follows t h a t the resources of the library ought to be available as much as possible to anyone desiring to use them. Are t h e y ? We do not think so. The question we now ask is why. Under the present policy the demands of the majority apparently prevail. For the argument is that the library cannot remain open Friday and Saturday evenings because not enough students would come to warrant it. But why, let us ask, should the number of hours the library is open on Friday and Saturday be proportionate to the number of students desiring to make use of its facilities? We believe t h a t the academic needs of the interested minority ought to take precedence over those of the uninterested majority. Another argument f o r the library being closed on Friday and Saturday evenings is t h a t a reference librarian cannot be provided to aid in student research. If it is so t h a t the staff cannot be increased in order to provide a reference librarian on these evenings, we still feel that the library should be open, if only under student direction. Bett e r an understaffed library t h a t is open than one t h a t is closed. A t this time in our history, as the pendulum again swings toward a greater emphasis upon scholarship and academic distinction, it is essential t h a t every possible opportunity be provided to meet the demands of the inquiring student. Any policy which hinders his intellectual growth cannot be condoned. —David G. Cassie —Albert Fassler

Revised Schedule . . . (Cont. from Pg. 1) To cover the unexpected costs of eight additional days of travel and residence in Europe, fifty dollars had to be added to the charges f o r this program. Dr. Fried said t h a t he f e l t most students would be delighted by the prospect of more time in Europe and expressed the hope t h a t neither t h e earlier departure date nor the slight increase in cost would force any of our students to change their plans f o r t h e summer. As a result of the changes in ships and departure dates it has also been possible to extend the deadline f o r registration. Since the final passenger lists have not been made up students wishing to do so still have an opportunity to register f o r the European program by seeing Dr. Fried as soon as possible. With the new dates the total length of the program will be just f o u r days short of three months.

A Fellow of t h e American Physical Society, his investigations have been in theoretical physics concerning the energy sources of stars, theory of atomic nuclei, meson theory, theory of neutron diffusion, electromagnetic theory and hydrodynamics.

Dutchmen Defeat Northern HI, Lose to Wheaton in NCAA RegionoLn Hope Plays Best in Loss to Wheaton Playing perhaps the best basketball ever to be played by a Hope College basketball team, Hope's Flying Dutchmen went down to a 104-93 defeat at the hands of the Wheaton Crusaders in the final game of the Great Lakes Regional NCAA tournament held in Aurora, Illinois, last Saturday night. 500 Hope Fans Present Some 500 Hope Students and other local residents traveled the 188 miles to Aurora to watch Hope in Action in the new multi-milliondollar East High School field house, and were p a r t of a crowd of over 4,000 fans who witnessed the two nights of play. Two games were played each night, but the final game on Saturday night would decide which team of the four would move on to Evansville, Ind. this week f o r the NCAA quarter finals. The victory gave Wl^aton, coached by Lee Pfund, a wpn-lost record of 26-1. Hope wi^ire things up with 19 wins and three setbacks. Four Minute Drought Hope stayed neck and neck with the No. 1 ranked Crusaders during the first minutes of the game in a rapid fire exchange of baskets. With the game tied at 16 all, Wheaton pumped in 15 while holding Hope to two in the next four minutes to build a 31-18 lead. Hope played on an even keel with Wheaton f o r the rest of the half, but missed a couple of opportunities to get closer. Bill Gerig, Wheaton guard, made eight baskets, while 5'8" Don Anderson and 6'3" Mel Peterson made six each to carry most of the scoring load. Peterson, a graduate of Stephenson (Mich.) High School, was named most valuable player in last year's NCAA tournament, which Wheaton won. The Dutchmen, compared with the torrid pace set by the Crusaders, had a below-par first half. They hit on 37% of their field goal attempts while Wheaton countered with a fabulous 60%. Wheaton led at halftime by sixteen, 61-45. Second Half a Different Story The first five minutes of the second half saw Hope narrow the margin to 66-58, but Wheaton would not let them get any closer until, with some ten minutes remaining, the score read Wheaton 77, Hope 70. t Ray Ritsema had committed his fourth personal foul some thr^e minutes earlier and had to watch the f r a c a s from the bench for ten minutes. Hope again pressed closer, with Paul Benes notching several baskets in a row to close the gap to 86-81. That was as close as Hope got. Ray came back in with four minutes left to play, but fouled out less than a minute later. Then Peterson, whom Ray had been guarding all night, put the game on ice for the Crusaders by making good on six straight baskets. The final difference was eleven points, 104-93. Benes Tops Hope with 33 Once again, it was Paul Benes leading his team in scoring, not to mention the 25 rebounds he garnered. Warren Vanderhill followed with 24 points and a number of assists. Ray Ritsema, faced with perhaps the greatest challenge of his basketball career in guarding Mel Peterson tallied 14 points. It was Peterson, of course, leading Wheaton with 35 points, but more t h a n half of that total came when Ritsema was on the sidelines. Bill Gerig added 26, Don Anderson 17, and Bob Whitehead 16 f o r the Crusaders.

Both teams had a common opponent this season in the Calvin College Knights. In one of the opening games of this year's play, Wheaton coasted to a 107-67 victory over the Knights. In two games, Benes scored 38 and 33 points to bring his season's total to 468, or an average of 21.2 per game. Vanderhill scored 44 to hike his per-game average to 14.1. Ritsema tallied 37 to wind up with an average of 16.4 points per game.

The Hope College basketball squad, eager f o r the chance to play in the final round of the Great Lakes Regional NCAA Tournament at Aurora, Illinois, got their chance by cracking the century mark in a 101-95 victory over Northern Illinois College from De Kalb, Illinois. In the contest which followed, defending NCAA champ Wheaton barely managed to squeeze by St. Norbert's college from West De Pere, Wisconsin, 68-66.

Paul Benes, on the receiving end of passes^ from teammates all night, pumped in 15 baskets, mostly on hooks and layups, and notched eight free throws for thirty-eight points. Ritsema, who controlled the defensive boards, followed with 23, while Warren Vanderhill had his highest scoring game of the season with 20. Jun Buursma was the other Hope man in double figures with eleven. Jim Capers, Larry Gentry, and Ron May each contributed ten points Dutch Hit 49 Percent to a losing cause.
