Trustees Comprised of Students

Student Church Begins Development And Studies Future Form, Program By John M. Mulder E v e r y S u n d a y at 10:45 a.m. Dimnent M e m o r i a l Chapel h a s people in it. E v e r y d a y , Mond a y t h r o u g h F r i d a y , at 8 a.m. this chapel is also filled with people, m a n y of w h o m a r e the s a m e people that are there on Sunday. The r e a s o n for their g a t h e r i n g each time is a w o r s h i p service, but the S u n d a y m o r n i n g w o r s h i p service, called the Student C h u r c h , is different. It's not required; no one collects chapel slips when the students leave, and yet the students a r e still c o m i n g . The Student C h u r c h is p o p u lar. It b e g a n last y e a r when Chaplain William Hillegonds started a series of Lenten services. So m a n y students attended that he decided to c o n t i n u e it on a trial basis for the rest of the year. B E F O R E T H E y e a r was out, the H o l l a n d Classis h a d a p p r o v ed the idea of the church, a n d at the J u n e meeting of the B o a r d of Trustees the Student C h u r c h was a p p r o v e d on a trial basis for this y e a r . Students h a v e attended the church in l a r g e n u m b e r s this y e a r , attendance a v e r a g i n g a r o u n d 6 0 0 each S u n d a y , and a c c o r d i n g to Wes Michaelson, c h a i r m a n of the Committee of Trustees of the Student C h u r c h , s o m e a r e h a i l i n g it as the most constructive t h i n g in the religious life of the college in years. W H E N SCHOOL b e g a n , the Religious Life Committee met and elected a committee of student trustees for the c h u r c h a n d chose senior Michaelson as its c h a i r m a n . Michaelson, Chaplain Hilleg o n d s a n d the student trustees are now in the p r o c e s s of t r y i n g to determine a n o r g a n i z a t i o n for the church, the n a t u r e of this " s t u d e n t " c h u r c h , a n d w h a t its p r o g r a m s a r e g o i n g to be. It's not a n easy job, s a y s Mic h a e l s o n , a n d the students are s p e n d i n g a great deal of time "just t h i n k i n g a n d t a l k i n g things o v e r . " In t h e p a s t , h e s a y s , g r o u p s of this kind set out with a p a r ticular p r o g r a m in mind. " T h a t ' s been one of the mistakes b e f o r e , " Michaelson s a y s a n d he h o p e s that the talk a n d t h o u g h t will eventually p r o d u c e p r o g r a m s that won't fizzle out.

SEVERAL POSSIBLE pro g r a m s a r e b e i n g considered. One is a m o n t h l y e x p e r i m e n t a l worship service on S u n d a y night which m i g h t be a jazz service or a religious d r a m a .

At the present the Student C h u r c h ' s o r g a n i z a t i o n is unstructured with the exception of the central committee of students and four subcommittees. O N E S U B C O M M I T T E E , head ed by C r a i g H o l l e m a n , is working on w o r s h i p services. Its responsibility, a c c o r d i n g to Mic h a e l s o n , is to determine what outside s p e a k e r s will c o m e and what the structure of w o r s h i p will be. The second subcommittee, chaired by Wally Borschel, is called the w o r k council, and t h r o u g h this committee the v a r i o u s service projects of the c h u r c h , such as w o r k i n g in the G r a n d Rapids inner-city with the Pleasant Hill Reformed C h u r c h , a r e o r g a n i z e d .

The p r o b l e m s before this committee include church membership, the possibility of having a p e r m a n e n t minister, and how the c h u r c h will be g o v e r n e d . The committee is s u p p o s e d to be a one year committee, a n d it is expected to complete its work by the end of the y e a r . A f o u r t h committee, headed by Thomas Ogren, is l a y i n g the g r o u n d w o r k for the establishment of g r o u p s which will seek to create a d i a l o g u e c o n c e r n i n g the w o r k s a n d views of l e a d i n g Christian thinkers.

For in d e f i n i n g a n d c a r r y i n g o u t what the S t u d e n t C h u r c h is lies its success or failure. T h e trustees m u s t r e m e m b e r t h a t the success of the c h u r c h isn't d e t e r m i n e d by the large n u m b e r of s t u d e n t s a t t e n d i n g the c h u r c h each week. U l t i m a t e l y , the c h u r c h will be j u d g e d according to its effect on c a m p u s and its ability to s t r e n g t h e n the f a i t h in t h e lives of the students.

F C O U R S E , the c h u r c h has a strike against it when it w o r s h i p s in the vastness of D i m n e n t C h a p e l which has usually been k n o w n for the coldness of its interior. T h e n again, when there is n o one to welcome s t u d e n t s before, d u r i n g or a f t e r t h e service, it's little w o n d e r t h a t some g o away w o n d e r i n g w h e t h e r it really is a c h u r c h a f t e r all.

E R H A P S T H E T H O R N I E S T problem of all is the p r o b l e m of m e m b e r s h i p . T h e o p i n i o n s r a n g e f r o m h a v i n g students b e c o m e f u l l members, s t u d e n t afhlliates r e t a i n i n g a m e m b e r s h i p in a n o t h e r c h u r c h , or h a v i n g n o m e m b e r s as such at all. W e would s u b m i t t h a t even t h o u g h the s p o n t a n e i t y of loose m e m b e r s h i p m i g h t r e c o m m e n d itself, the c h u r c h will be a mass of chaos w i t h o u t a core of p e o p l e to carry o u t its ministry.

T h e c h u r c h has a r o u g h r o a d a h e a d . W e praise its c r e a t i o n a l t h o u g h it bears testimony to the inability of H o l l a n d c h u r c h e s to meet the needs of the s t u d e n t s a n d t h u s in an indirect way t o t h e celebrated " g e n e r a t i o n g a p .

S o m e w h a t hesitatingly, he said that he w a s s o r r y to admit that he w a s n ' t exactly s u r e what " k n o w i n g G o d " m e a n t , a n d that in a n y certain terms he couldn't s a y he w a s " C h r i s t i a n " all the time.

I m u s t confess a m e a s u r e of d u b i o u s n e s s when I accepted a n invitation to attend the " C o n f e r ence o n C h r i s t i a n i t y a n d Literat u r e " at VVheaton College o n Oct. 20-22.

O b v i o u s l y , C h r i s t i a n i t y a n d lite r a t u r e weren't g o i n g to be lumped together in the s a m e conference as m e r e incidentals to be l o o k e d at a p a r t f r o m one a n o t h e r : the conference title s u g g e s t e d r a t h e r an attempt to b r i n g the two together. And how c o u l d that be d o n e without detriment to one o r both of t h e m ? A T H O R O U G H L Y articulated n o t i o n of C h r i s t i a n i t y w a s implied, as well as a n activity directed t o w a r d s either f i n d i n g s o m e aspects of literature c o n s o n a n t with that n o t i o n o r p r o m o t i n g the s a m e kind of s a p p i n e s s a n d slog a n s that h a v e c h a r a c t e r i z e d " C h r i s t i a n " l i t e r a t u r e too long. The first p a p e r w a s r e a d b y Nelvin Vos of M u h l e n b e r g College, M u h l e n b e r g , Pa., a n d w a s entitled " M o d e r n D r a m a : A b s u r d or Otherwise?" V o s declared that his intent w a s neither to establish criteria b y which m o d e r n d r a m a should be e x c o m m u n i c a t e d , n o r , on the other h a n d , to b a p t i z e it as the sole m e d i u m of T r u t h in our age. He c a r r i e d out his intent, but c a m e d o w n closer to b a p t i s m t h a n e x c o m m u n i c a t i o n , a n d then deftly h a n d l e d the inevitable challenge. One e x c h a n g e n e a r the end went s o m e t h i n g like this: QUESTION: I am bothered by y o u r willingness to even p a r t i a l l y e n d o r s e s o m e t h i n g which so obviously neglects to present the m e s s a g e of s a l v a t i o n in Christ even to present it o b l i q u e l y . How do y o u e x p l a i n y o u e n d o r s e m e n t ? VOS: Let me a s k a q u e s t i o n in return. If Christ c a m e t o d a y w o u l d we recognize H i m ? Q: I'm not s u r e w h a t y o u m e a n . If he comes o n His o w n terms as the Bible s a y s He will, 1 d o n ' t see h o w we can fail to recognize Him. VOS: What are " H i s own t e r m s ? " Are y o u c l a i m i n g to k n o w them? We t h o u g h t we could d o that 2 , 0 0 0 y e a r s a g o , too. Q: Oh, y o u m e a n to s a y , I s u p p o s e , that Christ might be an A b s u r d figure or s o m e t h i n g like t h a t ? VOS: 1 think t h a t ' s the question to end with.

But the attitude did not imply cocksureness. C a s e in point: At the final r o u n d table d i s c u s s i o n of the conference s p e a k e r s the editor of H I S M a g a zine s t a r t e d off b y s a y i n g that the chief a t t r i b u t e of the C h r i s t i a n writer s h o u l d be a " k n o w l e d g e of C o d .

" T e n t a t i v e " is the best w o r d to describe the attitude of the conference t o w a r d its Big Question. The q u e s t i o n itself is b o r n of a d o u b l e c o m m i t m e n t — o n e religious a n d the o t h e r s c h o l a r l y . T h e r e is n o preconceived app r o a c h , but w h a t goes o n might p r e s u p p o s e s o m e t h i n g like the following: Both C h r i s t i a n i t y ("rel i g i o n " is p r o b a b l y better — s o m e in C C L think so as well) — religion, then, a n d literature at their best d e a l with the precisely inexplicable, with that which, if it is c o n c e p t u a l i z a b l e , is not ultimately p u r e concept. T H E D I F F I C U L T Y is that lit e r a t u r e , of all the a r t s , is the most conceptual, which is b o t h a

strength and a weakness; a s t r e n g t h in that its " m e s s a g e " is most readily grasped; a weakness in that its aesthetic is m o s t easily p r o s t i t u t e d for the s a k e of a conceptual m e s s a g e .

ANOTHER INTERESTING aspect of C C L ' s a p p r o a c h is the p r e s e n t a t i o n of s p i r i t u a l truth inc o g n i t o .

As we e n g a g e ourselves with a style of self-exposure a n d utilize the f e e d b a c k f r o m others to evaluate and re-evaluate our character (viz. self, identity, self-image, etc.), self-definition becomes a c o m p r e h e n s i v e f r a m e of reference u p o n which to f o r m , m a i n t a i n , a n d o c c a s i o n a l l y alter o u r character f o r m a t i o n .

The Gray Haze By Gordy Korstangc

S o m e t i m e s y o u can feel it at the o d d e s t m o m e n t s . Like at a p a r t y , when the blistering, a m p lified g u i t a r s h a v e driven all t h o u g h t out of the mind, a n d e v e r y o n e is s h a k i n g their b o d i e s in s u b l i m a t i o n to the g u i t a r s . And then, a b o v e the din the g r a y haze drifts in, m a k i n g the b o d ies seem like p u p p e t s w h o s e strings reach into the g r a y n e s s . Or s t a n d i n g o u t s i d e V a n Raalte w a t c h i n g the t h r o n g s m o v e in h a r m o n y to the c l a s s bells. You see s o m e o n e w a l k a c r o s s the Pine (irove, a n d s u d d e n l y the h a z e a p p e a r s , t u r n i n g the leaves into l a n d m i n e s r e a d y to blow him to hits. W H E R E DOES the haze c o m e f r o m ? S o m e t h i n g must be g o i n g on which I c a n ' t detect f r o m e v e r y d a y events. The n e w s p a p e r s and m y d r a f t b o a r d h a v e told m e that s o m e w h e r e in the East there is a " t h i n g " g o i n g on. But m y C o n g r e s s h a s not declared that this " t h i n g " is a w a r , a n d the I nited N a t i o n s never m e n t i o n e d "police a c t i o n " o r " a g r e s s i o n . " There is n o t h i n g " o f f i c i a l " a b o u t this " t h i n g , " a n d the g r a y h a z e refuses to turn concrete. It m u s t be, as m y leaders s a y , that w e ' r e helping s o m e people over there fight a g r e s s i v e b a d men. But other p e o p l e on television a n d in m a g a z i n e s s h o w pictures of rats, filth, c r y i n g children, s t a r v i n g m o t h e r s a n d wasted fields. They tell stories of d y i n g women a n d children, inflation, 12year old demolition experts, p l a n e crashes , a n d even helpless people shot to d e a t h b y their o w n f r i e n d s and allies.

I W I S H O N E could k n o w w h o the b a d m e n really are, b e c a u s e they just d o n ' t w e a r b l a c k h a t s as in d a y s g o n e by. It seems that they all l o o k alike, with little yellow faces, but there a r e o t h e r s with white hats a n d faces who b y their v e r y presence c a n b r i n g out the b l a c k m a r k e t , p r o s tituting i m p u l s e in the c o u n t r y . T h e people a r o u n d me, t h o u g h , w e a r g r a y hats with white b a n d s a r o u n d them, a n d seem g r a t e f u l that the sheriff a n d his p o s s e a r e k e e p i n g the b a d g u y s a w a y f r o m the town. When they see the g r a y h a z e d r i f t i n g o v e r f r o m the E a s t they s a y , " M y , h a v e n ' t f o o d prices g o n e u p l a t e l y , " a n d r u n off to the s u p e r m a r k e t where the h a z e c a n ' t follow. T H E R E WAS A T I M E l a s t y e a r when e v e r y o n e w a s all excited a b o u t this " t h i n g . " And they m a r c h e d a n d a r g u e d a b o u t whether it h a d a n y m e a n i n g . But noth,ing h a p p e n e d . People o n the left t h o u g h t that the " t h i n g " w a s m o r ally b a d , a n d people o n the right Khought it just w a s n ' t w o r t h it unless we could win. ^ But there w a s no vote o n the " t h i n g , " a n d the c a n d i d a t e s being voted o n seemed to all be in the p o s s e . So the people on the left a n d right f o u n d t h e m s e l v e s in the g r a y haze, g r o p i n g for action, while the sheriff seemed bey o n d the reach of a n y o n e . Well, we all went a b o u t o u r b u s i n e s s h o p i n g it would all clear u p q u i c k l y a n d were a s s u r e d when told t h a t we were killing 5 0 0 p e o p l e a d a y a n d a g r e e d with the sheriff w h e n he said we would " b r i n g the c o o n s k i n h o m e o n the wall."

Of c o u r s e there were s o m e w h o kept s u g g e s t i n g the novel idea of s t o p p i n g this " t h i n g " in the middle. But then w h o c o u l d tell the sheriff w h a t to d o , a n d w h o w o u l d want to die t r y i n g to stop somet hi ng without v i c t o r y ? ANYWAY, p e o p l e g o to the office e v e r y d a y , m a k e b a b i e s , b u y new c a r s , a n d die of h e a r t a t t a c k s , s e e m i n g l y u n c o n s c i o u s of the h a z e to the E a s t . ' And m e ? 1 k n o w the prices h a v e g o n e u p at B o o n e ' s , a n d the leaves seem to fall h e a v i e r this year . And I keep l o o k i n g a r o u n d me, waiting for the haze to descend a n d i m p o s e its f o r m of u n r e a l i t y o n o u r f o r m of u n r e a l i t v .

Candid Remarks Heard As Frosh, Parents Talk Editor's Note: T w o anchor reporters recorded a candid conversation on a placemat while h a v i n g dinner at H o w a r d Johnson's Restaurant last weekend. What follows is a chronicle of conversations between two H o p e freshmen and their parents. " T h i s is the first y e a r we h a v e n't h a d a p u m p k i n in 18 y e a r s .

Reported o n e of the s t u d e n t s , " Y o u d o n ' t k n o w whether to call them Mr. or Dr., s o y o u call them all Dr. a n d flatter the ones w h o aren't."
