Argus Dies
Argus, the daily newsrlctlon
magazine, ts discontinuing publl
C3tion, according to hs edJrors.
Ed.hors Jlm Jamleson, Sue Gol
den and Elli Moore said that their
original purpose In publishing
ArgU s was not being achf-,yM.
Th:ls was to lnvolve a significant
portion o[ tbe Student body In
writing and editing Argus.
.. It was not our Intention to
publish our own oplnlons tn
d e £in lte I y or exclusJvely,"
Jamieson sold. "We hoped that
other studems would take enough
of an interest to contrtbute ma ..
terial. • We thought trull Argus
would have a def.intre place on
campus.''
The editors said that they were
gratified by the response of
readers to Argus ::tnd wisbed to
1hank those who conirlbuted
rlnanctal aid. They salccthat next
year perhaps they could begin
again with a cllfferen1 focus. spe,cts. aU our cou.rses are
liberal arts courses and t'elated
to western cJvlUzadon, he sug
gested tha1 students be permitted
co take any 38 courses for a de
gree. The three other parts of
his proposal required a major In
one field, a freshman proJecr to
clarUy the sDJdent's goals, and a
senior project In some way re
lated u, th"5e goals. The local
point in Paw's presentadon was
dlsdncdon between educadon as
setr-acruallzat!on (well adjusted
people adapting to Ihde environ
ment) :it'ld educadon as: a search
for meaning (people s1rMng to
achieve a goal). Stressing tho
ideA of education as s sear:ch for
rutrUlment or goals, Faw sug
gested that ror this kind or edu
cation., general requirements are
r"ally lrr.,J-,vant. although they
may have a place if our Idea of
educot!on Is one of self-acruall
zadon.
john BrllWI suggested that In
addition to having the toDlllrAr-
1.antsm or too many requirements.
we could go too rar the other
way by requhing none. He sug
gested rour different diplomas to
suJ1 the needs of the dlfferenc
Individuals auendtng Lewis and
Clark. One could be a very tight
set of reqwremems foe those
wishing to go on ln mNl.tcln~ and
other fields or srudy requldng a
structured Wider.graduate ap
proach,
The second could be a divi
sional diploma permJttlng • large
degree or sp-,claltzation within
the srudent's c.hose..n field and
preporing him for graduate
school.
The third could be • g"nernl
college degree, stressing OOJti
billcy and demanding no require
ments but an In depth project In
an area of the student's choos-
lng.
The (Ina! category woold be ror
non-diploma students, those who
do nor Intend to spend four years
here. or r-.bose Who do not intend
to ever gee a degree. Bnun
suggested that by offering techni
cal or vocational courses. we
might be able. to attn1ct a more
he1eroge.nous srud~nt body aod
achl-,ve better balance In admls
slons composit!oo.
Several st;Udents disagreed wuh
Arnoschc over general require
ments. One scudenL argued that
we should have general require
ments, but In area blocks rathe.r
than In sp-,clflc courses, &Jg
gestlng that most students need
some scrucwre and a.re not pre
pared £or an open-ended pro
posal, seve.ral srudentS said they
had gouen a lot out of the ge.neral
requirements they have taken.
They were partially backed up
by the results o! • poll conducted
by the Senate Academic Affairs
Committee which suggesred that
many srudents favored the re.ten
don of the g~eral requirements
now In effect, with most favoring
some k1m of modillcadon rather
ch3n an abolition of the requJre
ments. The percentage of sru
dencs favoring retention was found
to be higher among srudeots who
had ca.ken the courses than among
those who had not. Sioce only
333 srudents out of a srudem body
o( 1600 responded, the poll again
suUers by being an Incomplete
and non .. random sample.
The general feeling or those
present see:med to be thar some
kind or reduction In gt!lleral re
quirements IS desirable, although
la wh.fch areas and to wt.at de
gree remaJns an open quesdon. Page 2 PIONEER LOO
Community May Govern
The progress made during the last
few weeks on the LC community gov
errunent proposal appears to be a sign
of hope for the more progressive minds
of the campus. The student senate
already approved the basic idea of the
cooperative government and last week
the senate's policy statement was ap
proved by the faculty council. It will
come· before the whole faculty tomor
row for their recommendations and
hopefully some positive action.
The third party that would be in
volved, the administration, has con
sidered the proposal at executive
council meetings, and the senate's
ideas have been presented to Pres
ident Howard.
The students and faculty are al
ready work:Jng together with good re
sults on several committees such as
the curriculum committee which con
sisted formerly of all faculty mem
bers. For students expecially, the
change has brought about a different
attitude toward government. The com-mon excuse that senate ls never given
anything important to do is hardly
valid because they should take onproj
ects instead of waiting for them to
be assigned, but nevertheless, if stu
dents are put into a situation in which
positive action is expected, their ef
forts will certainly be more noticeable.
The fact that it has taken all year
for the proposal to come even this
far serves as a strong reminder that
if the subject is ever allowed to drop
or if it isn't brought up again in1-
mediately after summer vacation, all
the preliminru:y work will have to be
repeated. As with everything else,
it would take only a couple of times
through this cycle before the entire
idea would be abandoned and LC would
lose another valuable experience as
well as an efficient method of gov
ernment.
,New ASLC President Colin Tubbs
has long been a backer of the pro
poshl and we trust that his supporters
will continue to back him w1til the
government becomes reality.

LC fuvestigation Reveals Causes of 'Hangups'
by Lyell Rushton
We are Uvlng In a world or
hangups.
The term hangup ts one lhal
has only recently entered the un.
official college dlctlocary. It Is
used to describe many and varied
types or Isms, syndromes and
problems plaguing the college
srudent.
But what really are hangups?
What causes them? Who gets
bung up7 In shon, what do
hangups really mean?
When asked to de(inc what a
hangup really ls, several SteW
art Hall RA's said that a hang.
up ls a "l:rustrarton." The Stew
art RA's categorized these
"trust.rations" into several
topics, men being the most lm
ponant. Olher sources o( hang
ups mentioned lnclUded ques
tions and confilcts regarding sex,
rcsponslhUJty both towards one
setc and one's parents. drugs and
academic problems.
Many hangups c.ornc as a re..
sult of conOlcts between a girl
and her ps:rents over social.
sexual and financial questions.
The girl Is sctually torn between
three points of viC\1/: her-S, her
parents' and her peers' lt ls
at this point that she must make
her own dec.islon. pe.rha.ps cr;earlng
a hangup.
One RA expressed the cause of
many problems cooels~tywhcn she
told of the advice of her older
brother when she camt-to col.

been 1nught ot home Is right, but
some ol It Isn't." Another RA

other cause for many hangups.
They don•t want to be here, but

She Is firmly convinced thtlc the

going,. ''In an age wh~n everyone
encounters d0:tears, the most hn ..

Sbe believes that In de•llng with
problems and making decisions
the cotlegc student must remember
that he ls creating hlsowodestiny,
that he should lmiute no one.
''You are now beco'mlng what you

statc.mcn.L The question ot what

great source of anxiety.
Gordon Verplonk IS In his first
year a$ college chaplain. c:omlng
rrom Scanford University. He
thinks of a hangup as something
that lmmoblllzes the Individual.
He draws a stark picn.tre. or a
hangup wbeo ht" makes a.n analogy
to a carcass of beef, hanging fm ..

student Is tn o sense lmmoblllted.
His grades su!;fer, he Isn't hoWY
with himself or with those around
him. He Isn't genlng out of ure

Verplanl: believes that hangups
occur when swdents don't know

how to express them.
He believes thin the whole'!' ques

Ed.hors Jlm Jamleson, Sue Gol

Jamieson sold. "We hoped that

to western cJvlUzadon, he sug
gested tha1 students be permitted
co take any 38 courses for a de
gree. The three other parts of
his proposal required a major In
one field, a freshman proJecr to
clarUy the sDJdent's goals, and a
senior project In some way re
lated u, th"5e goals. The local
point in Paw's presentadon was
dlsdncdon between educadon as
setr-acruallzat!on (well adjusted
people adapting to Ihde environ
ment) :it'ld educadon as: a search
for meaning (people s1rMng to
achieve a goal). Stressing tho
ideA of education as s sear:ch for
rutrUlment or goals, Faw sug
gested that ror this kind or edu
cation., general requirements are
r"ally lrr.,J-,vant. although they
may have a place if our Idea of

zadon.
john BrllWI suggested that In
addition to having the toDlllrAr-
1.antsm or too many requirements.
we could go too rar the other
way by requhing none. He sug
gested rour different diplomas to
suJ1 the needs of the dlfferenc
Individuals auendtng Lewis and
Clark. One could be a very tight
set of reqwremems foe those
wishing to go on ln mNl.tcln~ and
other fields or srudy requldng a
structured Wider.graduate ap
proach,
The second could be a divi
sional diploma permJttlng • large
degree or sp-,claltzation within
the srudent's c.hose..n field and
preporing him for graduate
school.
The third could be • g"nernl
college degree, stressing OOJti
billcy and demanding no require
ments but an In depth project In
an area of the student's choos-
lng.
The (Ina! category woold be ror
non-diploma students, those who
do nor Intend to spend four years
here. or r-.bose Who do not intend
to ever gee a degree. Bnun
suggested that by offering techni
cal or vocational courses. we
might be able. to attn1ct a more
he1eroge.nous srud~nt body aod
achl-,ve better balance In admls
slons composit!oo.
Several st;Udents disagreed wuh
Arnoschc over general require
ments. One scudenL argued that
we should have general require
ments, but In area blocks rathe.r
than In sp-,clflc courses, &Jg
gestlng that most students need
some scrucwre and a.re not pre
pared £or an open-ended pro
posal, seve.ral srudentS said they
had gouen a lot out of the ge.neral
requirements they have taken.
They were partially backed up
by the results o! • poll conducted
by the Senate Academic Affairs
Committee which suggesred that
many srudents favored the re.ten
don of the g~eral requirements
now In effect, with most favoring
some k1m of modillcadon rather
ch3n an abolition of the requJre
ments. The percentage of sru
dencs favoring retention was found
to be higher among srudeots who
had ca.ken the courses than among
those who had not. Sioce only
333 srudents out of a srudem body
o( 1600 responded, the poll again
suUers by being an Incomplete
and non .. random sample.
The general feeling or those
present see:med to be thar some
kind or reduction In gt!lleral re

Community May Govern
The progress made during the last
few weeks on the LC community gov
errunent proposal appears to be a sign
of hope for the more progressive minds
of the campus. The student senate
already approved the basic idea of the
cooperative government and last week
the senate's policy statement was ap
proved by the faculty council. It will
come· before the whole faculty tomor
row for their recommendations and
hopefully some positive action.
The third party that would be in
volved, the administration, has con
sidered the proposal at executive
council meetings, and the senate's
ideas have been presented to Pres
ident Howard.
The students and faculty are al
ready work:Jng together with good re
sults on several committees such as
the curriculum committee which con
sisted formerly of all faculty mem
bers. For students expecially, the
change has brought about a different
attitude toward government. The com-mon excuse that senate ls never given
anything important to do is hardly
valid because they should take onproj
ects instead of waiting for them to
be assigned, but nevertheless, if stu
dents are put into a situation in which
positive action is expected, their ef
forts will certainly be more noticeable.
The fact that it has taken all year
for the proposal to come even this
far serves as a strong reminder that
if the subject is ever allowed to drop
or if it isn't brought up again in1-
mediately after summer vacation, all
the preliminru:y work will have to be
repeated. As with everything else,
it would take only a couple of times
through this cycle before the entire
idea would be abandoned and LC would
lose another valuable experience as
well as an efficient method of gov
ernment.
,New ASLC President Colin Tubbs
has long been a backer of the pro
poshl and we trust that his supporters
will continue to back him w1til the
government becomes reality.

The homestay ended early In
February with a farewell parcy In

routine as we became sa-a
teglcally based ln the Teheran

greatest tlllflculty we found was
to convince the students that we
were merely swdytng Iran's cul

selves. Here we could compa.re

Many of our ques<Jons about
Iran's lawmaking process were
answered in a vtsft co ParUamen't ..
The economJcs of the developing
country were also of 1ntec-est to
us, Our studies in th.ts area
were augmented by-tours of ne:w
tnduscrlal sites and leco.ires by
their owners. Although we were
somewhat barred by social forces
!rom observing the lives of the
great mass ol the poorer people
here, we did learn a lot about
them through trips to the Social
Research Center.
In early March, the pace slowed
down to some extent because of
midterms. but picked up agaln
when we left ror the long-awaited
cities of Isfahan aod Shiraz.

LC fuvestigation Reveals Causes of 'Hangups'
by Lyell Rushton
We are Uvlng In a world or
hangups.
The term hangup ts one lhal
has only recently entered the un.
official college dlctlocary. It Is
used to describe many and varied
types or Isms, syndromes and
problems plaguing the college
srudent.
But what really are hangups?
What causes them? Who gets
bung up7 In shon, what do
hangups really mean?
When asked to de(inc what a
hangup really ls, several SteW
art Hall RA's said that a hang.
up ls a "l:rustrarton." The Stew
art RA's categorized these
"trust.rations" into several
topics, men being the most lm
ponant. Olher sources o( hang
ups mentioned lnclUded ques
tions and confilcts regarding sex,
rcsponslhUJty both towards one
setc and one's parents. drugs and
academic problems.
Many hangups c.ornc as a re..
sult of conOlcts between a girl
and her ps:rents over social.
sexual and financial questions.
The girl Is sctually torn between
three points of viC\1/: her-S, her
parents' and her peers' lt ls
at this point that she must make
her own dec.islon. pe.rha.ps cr;earlng
a hangup.
One RA expressed the cause of
many problems cooels~tywhcn she
told of the advice of her older
brother when she camt-to col.
loge -"Basically what you have
been 1nught ot home Is right, but
some ol It Isn't." Another RA

Mrs. Elizabeth Ferris Is In her

her views on college mor-allty

Another source of hangups for
women, ac.cording to Mrs .. F'cnis,
ls the confitct in a girl's mind
between mMTiage ,nd education.
Many women hav" l1he Id"• that

union. Ule will come to an end.
Mrs. Ferris feels thllt many
girls have no real interest 1n col
lege, don't enjoy it and shouldn"t
be In college at aJL This Is an
other cause for many hangups.
They don•t want to be here, but
lhey have no other place to go.
They want to be Independent, buc
Lodepcmdencc frightens them. A
paradox -a hangup.
~Uss Greta Dixon Is .sc.n1.ng
her second ycor as resident
dlrec1or of Copeland Hall. A
graduate student at the Univer
sity ol Portland, lo,Uss Dixon be
lieves that hangups aren't really
that bad. ··1, wquld be a pretty
dull world if we didn't have these
things to go through," sbe said.
She Is firmly convinced thtlc the
whole ordeal makes fOU a ••better
person.·· She feels th.at the mosc Impor
tant poln1 1n discussing hangups
ts then students are able to keep
going,. ''In an age wh~n everyone
encounters d0:tears, the most hn ..
ponont thing Is getting back up
on your feet again."
Sbe believes that In de•llng with
problems and making decisions
the cotlegc student must remember
that he ls creating hlsowodestiny,
that he should lmiute no one.
''You are now beco'mlng what you
wUI always be." 1 To many Lewis and Clark St\1-
dents, this Is a very lrlghtenlng
statc.mcn.L The question ot what
to do following graduation is an
other sou,:,ee ol hangups, The
problems of what occupation to
pursue. Wllh what ftrm, tn what
section of the country are all
questions that bother the colleg"
student, especially the men. The
question ot what happens 111 don•t
get Into medico! school, or lf I
am rejec•ed from grad school Is a
great source of anxiety.
Gordon Verplonk IS In his first
year a$ college chaplain. c:omlng
rrom Scanford University. He
thinks of a hangup as something
that lmmoblllzes the Individual.
He draws a stark picn.tre. or a
hangup wbeo ht" makes a.n analogy
to a carcass of beef, hanging fm ..
mobile from • meathook In • eold
storage cooler. The bung up
student Is tn o sense lmmoblllted.
His grades su!;fer, he Isn't hoWY
with himself or with those around
him. He Isn't genlng out of ure
what he ls punlng Into It.
Verplanl: believes that hangups
occur when swdents don't know
what ro do wtth thol.r emorlons or
how to express them.
He believes thin the whole'!' ques
tion of hangups can be traced to
Jove. 'The blggestque3tlon bother

can I know that I am loved?''

Nickerson counsels nearly 30
students a week ln Ms office

He emphasizes that students who
do have problems should try to get
them straightened out now, be

the college age ls the Ideal time
to solve hangups.
Nick.er-.son says that Lewis and

more than other Institutions'· but
he is convinced that ''we rum
