Among the more enthusiastic

to take Pas.S-No Pass COUJ"Ses in

Is considered especially aP­

Discouraging
Or How To Get Nowhere By Not Re.ally Trying
Whereas: We started the yeru.· with a bitchy editorial,
We based most of the editorial policy of the year on assorted bitchy
subjects.
There are just as many things to bitch about at the encl of the year
as there were at the beginning.
Be It hereby known that:
We will finish the year with a bitchy edito1·ial, hopefully filling any
gaps we may have left.
The only problem with the above
statement is that not only are there
as many things to bitch about as there
have been in th.e past, but in general
they are the same things. The well­
known pattern of the College is simply
not open to change.
The student senate is still nothing
more than a rehearsal chamber for
great statesmen waiting to be dis­
covered. Each discussion of issues
(issues?) is led by the same people
in the same manner week after week.
At one time, in our idealism, we won­
dered why the students In general
paid no attention to senate, but then
we went to our first meeting and dis­
covered why the students don't care.
The ,question changed to "Why do most
of the senators even bother?"
The community governmentproposal
may someday become reality·, and we
have editorialized in its favor, but
sometimes we must wonder if it will
really make that much difference.
The red tape that its supporters have
endured is amazing, but it seems to
follw the same pattern that it did for
the intervisitation proposal (better
known to money-givers from off
campus as ''Who knows what those
innocent kids might discover if we
leave them alone like that?"). A new
intervis experiment is being planned
for next year, but does anyone really
believe there might be a chance of
its passing?
While we're on the subject of liv­
ing arrangements, has anyone ever
considered the possibility of incor­
porating a law enforcement school into
the curriculum? After an RA has
signed his contract and served in his
position for a term or so, we're
sure he could receive some advance
placement. When he was finished,
he could Join the search for crime
and immorality on an ever larger
scale. Or is 1t more fun to just
play baby-sitter to one's peers?
In general, the college adminis­
tration is probably concerned with
providing a good academically­
oriented college for people who truly
want to learn, but once in a while
some reassurance would be nice. The
Happy Jack's Day Camp image por­
trayed by the development office ex­
ists nowhere. In spite of the folder
they distributed asking for contribu­
tions to the gymnasium fund, we as­
sure any off-campus types who might
be reading this that we have advanced
beyond the primer stage. We have
no idea what the results have been
from the folder, but lt is em­
barrassing to explain why your col­
lege would send out a pamphlet en­
tiUed "Run, Jim, Run." stop, De­
velopment Office, Stop!
It also seems that when Dr. How­
ard 1·eturn.ed from his trip to Mexico,
there was a lot of work waiting 011
his desk, but he discovered he had an opportunity to play golf with
Billy Graham that day. Other mem­
bers of the administration sizzled,
but to no avail. By the way, Billy,
what is your recent secret for rais­
ing money?
The chapel on the hilltop will be a
dead issue by the time school starts
again next year, but the building
program will not. It's time to chan­
nel the entire effo1t into finding some
V{ay to finance the :science building.
'I\he facilities In BoDine and Peebles
are amazingly good, considering what
there is to work with, but amazingly
bad in comparison to what could be
in their place.
A good science faculty is neces­
sary before LC can become a great
or even a good college, but a $600,000
chapel with suspended pipe organ (or
whatever the plan is this week) is not.
Perhaps God will be so pleased with
our monument to his glory that he
will perform a miracle and transform
BoDine into a beautiful science com­
plex. Or maybe he will perform a
miracle and transform the whole col­
lege into a pile of ashes. In case of
the latter, the insurance money would'
be fantastic, and the tourist trade
would be bette1-· than if we really
did have Japanland.
The brightest spot in the college
scene has to be the LC faculty. It
is made l;P of an increasing number
of fairly -young, liberal scholars who,
by continually applying pressure to
both the student body and the admin­
istration, have been able to bring
about several good changes. The
curriculum committee ln particular
stands out as a progressive body.
Their open hearings before each im­
portant decision have made it possible
for any interested person to air his
views.
Fo1-emost among their achieve­
ments is probably the approval of a
skeleton pass-fail grading system.
We suspect that not many students
will use it at first, but the oppor­
tunity is available for those who can
use it to advantage. In the Log's
survey of departments, we found that
almost all of them have opened the
majority of their curriculum to the
system.
In closing, may we say to all those
whom we have offended during the
course of the year, the pleasure has
been all ours. If the1-e is anyone
we might have missed, we assure
you It was not intentional and there
is no need to feel cheated. There
are good and bad parts to every­
thing, but we have stressed the bad
on the premise that emphasis in these
areas would bring the most needed
improvements as quickly as possible.
In general there have been no great
changes, but perhaps there have been
some subtle beginnings hidden some­
where that might one day be recog­
nized as progress. E.P. May 28, 1961

New Personalities To Spark Staff
by Brian Mount
Have you noticed that we've
managed to ellmlrulte much of tbe
unsavory element on campus
during tbe paR rew months?-the
dlabollcal dean of tbe law school,
for ex.ample, who had no Idea
how to manage his budget When
all that was expected of him wos
a little prudence ond a degree In
alchemy. He simply could not
realize that we had better smrus

dollars into.

Summer School Based Upon Student Needs
by Dabney Sinon
If you plant·otakesummerschool
at Lewis and Clark thls year, pre­
pare yourself for two terms of
exciting expcu-ienc.e:.
So many srudents complat,n
that colleges never really offer
courses that interest them. This
year. LC has created a new. e~
tended summer program, guara~
1.eed to blow everyone's mind.
What promp1ed LC to base Its
swnmer program on the srudent' s
needs? According 10 the "LC
Summer Catalog," LC realized
that three types ol srudents-un­
dergraduates working towards
graduation, graduates working
towards Masters degrees and ma­
ture persons trying to improve
their minds-sometimes depend on
summer school for their education.
This year. LC can help these
students. Firs,, It offers classes
at a lower cost than offered.during
lhe school year. Commuters pay
,111 to take a course at LC
during lhe yeor. During the sum.
mer, lhcy pay only $90.
Second, It now follows N'O sum­
mer school policies that enable
1t to offer courses srudents need
and wants: 1) It tries not to
repeat upperdivlslon courses from
yeu to year so that srude.nt:s can
project their summer studies three
years ln advance aod decide whot
they need, In order to graduate
or take thelr graduate d~rees tn
mustc and education, 2) It spon­
sors new courses taught by both
LC professors and visiting loc­
ulty. This year, Dr. Luther Jer.
srnd will lead an. Asian Theater
Seminar that enables American studcn1S to participate In Japan..

All In all, 22 departments ww offor 119 a.lmostt aU .. new courses
that LC lhSnks summer students
will de[lnJtely be lnIeres1ed ln.
