Show morefrom page 1 smooth, and nothing short of terrific. “They Can't Take That Away From Me" was another upbeat tune that was particularly tight, and by this song, Gardner's voice was noticeably loosened up. He sang with more free- dom and swing, and the entire band played with more confidence. Solos by Bill Simenson on trumpet and Steve Bleifuss on trombone added an extra kick to this tune. Gardner comically explained how he'd “stayed away from Gershwin and Porter" when he selected the songs for his show, and proceeded to introduce “Foggy London Town, " a tune written by Gershwin. A small combo played Gardner's arrangement like pros, and solos of Bill Simenson, Dave Hagedorn, and sax player Mike Neururer left the audience quite awed. After the intermission, “This Could Be the Start of Something Big“ brought the audience back to the second set. The full band arrangement showed off the big sound of the ensemble, and it was obvious that the group had been well rehearsed. “Too Close For Comfort" was another tune that drew lots of applause. Gardner's arrangement of Mel Torme's “Christ- mas Song" was outstanding, and occasionally, bits of “Jingle Bells" and “The Twelve Days of Christmas" popped into the melody. Clever uses of tempo and time changes made “Christmas Song" interesting, and provided the audience with something very familiar for the audience to “hang their ears on." Gardner's oration before “The Lady is a Tramp” told of his fateful date with an Augsburg lady to the Chin Wag, where she used up a whole book of his coupons. Mike Neururer’s sax solo in “Lady” was even more convincing than Gardner‘s story. The performance closed with Cole Porter’s “You're The Top" and left the audience wanting more. Gardner‘s 18 arrangements, in general, were heartily enjoyed by the large audience who attended the coffeehouse. A few problems are inevitable in a situation such as Gardner's unusual coffeehouse. Singing above a 17-piece band presents a major obstacle, even with a PA system. Occasionally, things got a bit too loud, and Gardner's voice was distorted through the PA as they tried to balance out the sound. The voice quality that Gardner has is a night club-type sound, and for the most part is easy to listen to and goes well with the style of music that was played in “Songs You Might Have Liked.“ Improvisation and solo work are two of Gardner's fortés on the acoustic bass, his primary performing instrument, and the style shows up in his singing as well. Those in attendance Thursday night would agree—Gardner's got jazz! Cabaret very satisfying finale. Despite some minor problems with blend, dynamics and choreographic mechanics, Cabaret's Christmas show was, on the whole, a top-quality production. it‘s obvious that music director Lisa Lundeen, choreography director Terri Bocklund and all the other members of the group and the ensemble spent many long hours rehearsing and preparing for this show, I hope they feel it was worthwhile.

Both the Augsburg community and even more importantly those friends, relatives, and observers outside of Augsburg need to know what is happening here. Kay Cady, the new member of the Public Flelations De- partment, will handle this responsibil- ity as the news bureau coordinator. The position of news coordinator consists of three responsibilities. These include editing the bi-monthly newspaper, Augsburg College Now, sending out news releases for the news bureau, and serving as sports information director. She, along with other members of the Public Relations Department, will also help student interns and other faculty and staff with communications materials. Cady, originally from central South Dakota, attended the University of South Dakota, Vermillion, planning at first to major in music. After becoming involved with the campus yearbook and being copy editor for her school‘s newspaper, she decided to follow her journalistic interests. Upon graduating with a BA in communications and journalism in 1973, Cady worked as promotion director and staff writer of the SlOJX Falls Argus-Leader. In 1975 she was offered a graduate teaching assistantship in journalism at South Dakota State University, Brookings. There she worked as a lab instructor and helped coordinate summer workshops for the South Dakota High School Press Association. Before moving to Minneapolis in 1977, Cady served as director of public information for a year at Huron College in Huron, South Dakota. Because it was a small office, she handled everything from writing feature articles and news releases, to developing public relations. She became assistant editor in environ- mental health at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health two years ago. During this time, she also News Bureau Coordinator Kay Cady. 7ECHD Pno/o by Erik Kan/en instructed evening journalism classes and was advisor for student publica« tions at Anoka-Ramsey Community College while the regular instructor was on sabbatical. Cady is looking forward to being involved with both the alumni and students at Augsburg. She, and her husband Tom, and their five month old son, Miles, live in South Minneapolis. Wood publishes third book Professor of English, Dave Wood, recently published his third book, Wisconsin Prairie Diary (Dan Camp Press, 202 pp.). Favorable reviews have begun to appear in the midwestern press. The Milwaukee Journal reviewer called the book “a fetching glimpse into our pioneer past,“ According to Wood, the entries in the diary are similar to haiku, the Japanese poetic form. On Monday, Dec. 10 at 2:30 pm, the English department is sponsoring an authograph party celebrating publication of the new book. Everyone is invited and refreshments will be served.

Show moreHockey sweeps in Superior By HOWIE SMITH Staff Writer The Augsburg hockey team, fresh from three victories in the Thanks- giving tournament, gained two more this past weekend against the University of Wisconsin-Superior by the scores of 7-6 and 6-5. Friday night the Auggies continued their assault on the oppositions net by recording 59 shots on goal and having 7 of them finding their way past the goaltender. (In four games, Augsburg has averaged 50 shots and 7.7 goals per game). The Auggies led the whole way but were never able to “blow Superior off the ice." They continued to stay close and give their fans something to hope for. Leading the scoring was Chuck McCan with three goals and, contributing one each, were John Evans, Bob Schwartz, John Ferrera, and Jeff Andrews. (Andrews was making his first appearance on defense since high school). With the injuries to James and Hughes, Coach Saugestad was forced to move Andrews back and call up freshman Todd Tessman for his first varsity action. Dick Bain was in goal for the Auggies and turned away 32 shots. Saturday night the Auggies jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead with goals from Terry Brown and Kevin Gordon within the first three minutes. Superior got one back before the end of the period and the intermission was spent with a 2-1 Augsburg lead. Evans gave the Auggies a 3-1 lead with a Shorthanded goal early in the second but then the roof fell in. Superior scored three times within two minutes to take the lead, then added another to make it 5-3. Ferrera scored for the Auggies late in the second to cut it to 5-4. The third period was scoreless until Steve Cornelius found an opening from the point to tie it with close to five minutes left in the game. With just 2:33 left in the game, McCan blasted in the game winner— his fourth goal of the weekend and eighth of the year. Mike Burkhardt was in goal Saturday and kicked out 31 shots. Augsburg continued to have trouble with getting too many penalties, as witnessed by the six they received Saturday night. Six penalties is untypical for a Saugestad—coached hockey team but, then again, this team hasn't shown any signs of being close to a typical hockey team by anyone's standards. Even when Shorthanded they outshoot and outscore their opponents. In averaging over 7.5 goals per game their motto should maybe read “Have net, will score." Augsburg‘s next game is at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls on Dec. 18. The game is there and game time is at 7:30 p.m. The Auggies first home game is on Jan. 4 at 7:15 p.m. against UW-Eau Claire. sports briefs Augsburg's basketball team de- feated Northwestern 85—61 on Tues- day, Dec, 4 to extend their unblemished record to 5-0.

One might argue that rules are only formalities for people who want to evade the issues or know how to manipulate those rules. And indeed, these are not rare occurrence. But in order for conflict on the international scene to be dealt with peacefully, diplomatic channels of all kinds-embassies, ' x the International Court, and the f . / * x/ K United Nations—must remain \ intactandviable. K" The “controlling group” in Iran .~ has shown it does not agree with ‘ i “\r this pre-condition. Whether by kaflk"d commission or ommission, action or non-action, Iran’s present regime has rejected the normal channels of diplomacy. They have rejected a United Nations’ declaration to release the hostages because it does not include the extradition of the deposed shah. They have not only rejected the declaration by the Hague International Court to release the hostages, but they also declared the court as having no credibility. But the deepest blow comes from the overrunning of the United States Embassy and the taking of hostages. “We have brought the greatest power to its knees" was heard from the “students” who siezed the embassy. The violent entry into diplomatic headquarters with no attempt by the host “government” to stop it sets a precedent that may seriously erode formal diplomatic exchange (need we be reminded of the similar attempts in Pakistan and Lybia?).

To the Editor: It is often a demonstrable fact that those who are in something for a fast buck are not concerned with either the interests or the rights of anyone else, This fact was demonstrated again this past week. While passing a bulletin board in the Science Building, I noticed a poster advertising catalogs listing a wide range of term papers available for purchase by students. The pad of order forms had only two forms remaining. By coincidence that same day, I noticed an article in the Minnesota Daily about these same ads at the U. of M, The article explained the sales pitch and prices of the company. and also included several quotes by University professors 4 raising ethical and practical questions involved in such a method of "research" in the process of being “educated.” In the interest of fair play, | fastened the Daily article (with applicable sections underlined) and the ad poster with Its remaining forms, on a sheet of paper, with the comment “Food for thought." I was intrigued, but not really surprised, to note about an hour later that more posters with full pads of order blanks had been posted, and that my clipping etc. had been removed. I assert that this demonstrates the vendor's lack of concern for the students‘ 1) interests, since education is not best attained through fraudulent Continued on page 5 countries have rejected giving asylum to the deposed shah. The United States has been told that having the deposed shah leave the country is not enough—in fact, It will only bring more contempt from the Iranians. The Iranians are sticking to their demand for the return of the deposed shah. Outside of a death sentence, the return of the deposed shah poses two major diplomatic problemszii) if he is handed over to the Iranians against his wishes thecredibility of “being an ally" of the United States is brought into serious jeopardy; who would believe that a country that would turn on its “friends” could truly be an ally: (2) more importantly, if the United States bends to the overrunning of an embassy and the blackmail politics of holding hostages, does it in turn destroy what limited sovereignty the institution of an embassy encompasses—do they in fact imply the viability of such action by groups willing to do just that, or worse? The uprising of so many people against the deposed shah raises two equally important questions: are the atrocities of his regime so vast that the admission of him as a “friend” is in itself highly questionable? or is it the heightened response of propaganda from a revolutionary successor? We would be tools to assume we can be judge, jury and executioner —or, for that matter, “the power that may pardon all.” The situation in Iran is acrisis but the problem runs much deeper than how to get the hostages back alive. President Carter has called this a matter of the image of America. Too narrow. It is a matter of shaping. the dialogue between vastly differing peoples.

Students are quick to point out that this long of a delay in the release of the Auggies is unprecedented, and that the incident is a clear indication of the changing relationship between students and the administration. Last week students received what first appeared to be a major concession from the ltol'ya but on closer examination the long-awaited Auggies turned out to be mere personal directories published by Norwegian Be“. This is being interpreted by the students as a deliberate slap in the face. Norwegian is an imperialistic organization which has worked closely with ltol’ya 'Omabey and other Augsburg officials for the last year in a now evident conspiracy to make life miserable for the students. Their most recent move was the installation of a PBX system which makes it virtually impossible for outsiders to contact students after business hours, decreases access to outside lines, compromises student security, costs more money than regular phone service and preserves all the inefficiencies of the old system. Also party to this conspiracy, aimed at isolating the students from each other and the outside world, is the Ministry of Hindrance and Detention (MHD) which has recently erected a huge wall sealing off the entire South side of the campus. Guidance from faculty advisors has been difficult to obtain by the students due to the harassing tactics of the ltol'ya‘s secret police. For months they have been spraying water through classroom windows, interrupting lectures with terrifying noise-making devices, blockadan sidewalks, and hindering progress through cafeteria lines. The ltol’ya continues to deny responsibility for these actions saying. “They should have been out of here last fall.“ Furthermore, it has been difficult for the faculty to speak because they have been biting their tongues in response to President Anderson's recent “promote and pay" accusations. In a related event Anderson was forced to resign last week for boldly challenging ltol'ya 'Omabey in an obvious power struggle. His fatal comment to the ltol'ya was, “Do you think we might be able to let the Auggies go'by Christmas? Do ya? Huh? Do ya? Anderson‘s resignation may be due to medical reasons as well. Observers speculate that he may be the latest Victim of an Continued on page5 Dec. 7, 1979 Show less

Show moreO O Im c Ips The Onion Field—emotionally exhausting March 9, 1963. Two Los Angeles police officers are newly partnered in the Hollywood Division. One is a bagpipe enthusiast, Ian Campbell (Ted Danson), an ex-pre—med student. The other is Karl Hettinger (John Savage), also a college dropout. Hettinger dropped out of an agricultural major and says regretfully, “Police work is so noisy. Tomatoes are so quiet." On a Saturday night, the busiest night of the week, the patrol officers turn onto Carlos Avenue at Gower Street, spotting an old Ford coupe. The pair in the car, Gregory Powell (James Woods) and Jimmy Lee Smith (Franklyn Seales), look suspicious. Campbell and Hettinger decide to check them out. Powell and Smith, looking for a store to rob, are both armed. Smith, a small- time loser just out of Folsom Prison after serving five years, emerges from the car terrified, with hands above his head, convinced he’s about to return to prison. Powell exits the car backwards and suddenly swings to confront Campbell with his pistol. Hettinger has drawn his gun but, on orders from Powell and for the safety of his partner, surrenders it. The officers are kidnapped and forced to drive toward Bakersfield. Powell explains that he will take the officers out into the country and drop them, giving himself and Smith time to escape. Finding a suitable place in an onion field, Powell asks if the officers have heard of the “little Lindburgh Law." He then fires a single shot into Campbell's face. Hettinger dashes through the onion field trying to escape a similar fate. The Los Angeles Police Depart- ment‘s finest homicide detective, Pierce Brooks (Ronny Cox) is assigned to investigate the crime. a task that will involve him for the next seven years. Both criminals are extremely cooperative and agree precisely to all the details but one: who fired the four shots after the initial shot. Each blames the other. Powell and Smith are brought to trial and initiate a bizarre series of maneuvers that delays the final verdict. Meanwhile, Hettinger has returned to duty but is haunted by feelings of doubt and guilt concerning his performance. An official police memo implies, as do a number of his fellow officers, that Hettinger is responsible for the death of his partner because he did not react correctly. “You’re policemen. Policemen put their trust in God. Anyone who gives up his gun is a coward,” the captain states. Hettinger begins to have recurring nightmares and intensely painful headaches as a result of his unconscious guilt. The incident in this film is a true occurrence. The crime drama was based on the writing of Joseph Wambaugh, who was himself a member of the LA. police force at the time all this happened. Wambaugh STUDENTS . . convenience in the from Augsburg.

What happened to Wambaugh‘s books while they were being made into films left him angry. The Choirboys angered him so much that he demanded that his name be removed from the credits. So Wambaugh took matters into his own hands this time. He invested his personal resources into the film and raised additional capital from friends. He also supervised every moment of every scene during the filming. Wambaugh‘s dedication shows. The Onion Field is an excellent movie in all aspects.

The Center provides several medical services including family planning assistance and prenatal care educa- tion, usually at the cost of three dollars per visit. Legal advice is usually given at no cost. These services have been available for some time in the Cedar-Riverside community, but Augsburg students have been generally unaware of the organization. Jane Weiss, coordinator, said “We would welcome Augsburg people to use the clinic." She added that students would also be welcomed as volunteers to work with the Center. Weiss said that the house would be “tight quarters" for the services, but that it would be “workable.” She also BEOG divorced since 1978-80 BEOG. 0a spouse or parent whose 1978 income was reported when applying for BEOG died since the time of filing. -a spouse, whose 1978 income was reported when filing for BEOG, has experienced a complete loss of all employment for at least 10 total weeks in 1979. -a student or spouse has been unable to pursue normal income producing activities for a period of 10 weeks or longer during 1978 due to loss or damage of property as a result time of filing for because they resemble the true-life crooks, but turn in outstanding characterizations, also. In fact, Woods is so good, it will be hard to accept him in a “good guy“ part. Another aspect of the film that is noteworthy is the way passages of time are handled. Instead of flashing a date on the screen, viewers know a few years have passed from the incident, when Hettinger was just recently married, to when he transfers into store security, when he has a little daughter. But while The Onion Field is an excellent film, it is not enjoyable. It makes the viewer tense, scared, angry, frustrated, bitter, sympathetic —in short emotionally exhausted. The viewer feels the pain. So while it‘s hard to say, "i enjoyed the film,“ its well worth your time and money this busy time of the year.

Show morepoul kilqore Anyone who has spent even a little time watching the late—night talk shows knows that author Truman Capote, a frequent guest on such programs, cannot claim modesty as one of his more dominant traits. A few summers ago I saw him on The Tonight Show, plugging his latest book. Just before a commercial break, Carson asked his guest how he would evaluate himself as a writer. "Well," Truman began, adjusting his glasses, “I am the founder, of course, of the nonfiction novel.” He thought a moment. “I've also written what is possibly the best short story this country has ever produced." The short story he was talking about is A Christmas Memory, a work which describes, as one might guess, a young man's recollections of the Christmas‘ of his childhood. Capote tells about the cakes his family made, and about the tree they chopped down, and about the homemade presents they received. In short, this story reconstructs Christmas as it was celebrated in the South during the Depression. A Christmas Memory is so charming and so downright American that while reading it I nearly overlooked the fact that Capote‘s Christmas is almost totally foreign to the holiday we’ve grown up with. I can't help but wonder what the story would have turned out like if, say, one of us had written it. My memories of Christmas are closely connected with music, from the joyful chorus of “The First Noel" to the quiet harmonies of “Silent Night” to the rollicking jazz melody of the Peanuts’ Christmas Special theme. In high school we were always going caroling somewhere. Our church youth group sang at the hospital. The Presbyterian senior choir sang at the homes of shut-ins. And our school choir usually covered the rest of the town. Of all those nights spent with choirs, however, the December evening that sticks out in my mind is one on which we didn't sing a note, That was the time when our school choir was scheduled to make a special visit to the nursing home. The caroling was cancelled when only three singers showed up. Our director was furious. “All I could think of," he told us the next day, “was how those patients were being gotten out of bed and wheeled into the lobby, only to wait half an hour before being told that the choir couldn't come because it didn‘t have enough people to sing." Christmas Eve Day was always so tedious. The long wait until the next morning was so unbearable that after a few years we were allowed to open presents on Christmas Eve, right after the church service. There were dozens of gifts under the tree. Mom would shake her head and say that there was no reason for having all of those things. She would tell how her brother Howie had received nothing for Christmas except a rotten potato. “Is that true?" we would ask. “You can ask him." “What did he do that was so bad?" “I don't remember.” We asked Howie about it once. Yes, he said, the story was true: one Christmas he had been given only a rotten potato. He didn‘t remember what he had done wrong, either. "’ The visiting relatives on Christmas Day will always be a part of my memories. Some years Christmas was the only time all of us got together. The house would be crowded with people, all of them eating and telling stories and asking questions and wanting to see gifts. It was always fun, even the year an uncle almost spoiled everything by announcing that he didn't believe in God. So my Christmas memories are very different from Capote's. I can only remember a few years in which we actually chopped down our own tree. And I never had a Christmas when most of the gifts were homemade. Capote's memories, on the other hand, don't include Christmas carols, snow on Christmas Eve. or Dayton's eighth floor auditorium. Yet his story rings true for me, for I can see that he felt the same things during the Christmas season as I felt, and still feel. Despite being separated by forty years, hundreds of miles, and radically different lifestyles, our memories both picture Christmas as the strangest and best time of the year. Imagine that.

Octodecphobia (fear of the ‘80’s). Itol‘ya ‘Omabey is considering two candidates to fill Anderson‘s vacant seat on the Abstentious Council. In the words of the ltol'ya, “Both men have demonstrated a remarkable proficiency in applying those principles which this council has always held dear. Their experience will be a valuable asset to this administration." The two men are currently employed as top executives by the Milwaukee Road and Chrysler Corporation. Those students who have had more than they can take of this state of affairs have been blocked in their recent attempts to withdraw from what they regard as an oppressive institution. They were shocked to find out that withdrawal is a flagrant act in administration eyes, and any attempts to do so will result in the immediate repayment of student loans with interest. Having gone without interest for so long, many students are surprised to find themselves with frozen assets. These developments combined with the continued delays of ltol'ya 'Omabey have only served to heighten the tension. Talk of retaliation by the students does not seem to affect the ltol’ya who has not alerted her available forces. There has been no noticeable build up or shifting of priorities in the routine hunt-and-peck operations. Efforts to resolve the crisis have been hampered by the ltol‘ya's observation of Augsburg's most holy event, Flounder‘s Day.

When asked about the morality of such actions a spokesman for ltol'ya 'Omabey said, “You have to understand our history.

Show moreLanguage requirements changed to two semesters By KORDI HISVOLD Staff Writer “With growing student concern about the job market, knowledge of a foreign language will enhance one's ‘saleability’ in the world of work. Communication skills are a must in nearly all careers and having a second language shows an ability that goes far beyond the common person's . . . With that Academics standing com- mittee report before them, Augsburg's Student Senate, in November, 1978, voted seven to six to endorse a proposal changing foreign language requirements for incoming freshmen of 1980. Although the vote was a first step in approving a change, it was not until recently that action on the proposal was taken, clarifying exactly what effect that change would have on students. According to Foreign Language Department Head, Gunta Rozentals, "We had been very dissatisfied with the one-semester foreign language requirement because it didn't do anything for the student— that one semester was hardly worth requiring." Apparently, the original purpose of the language requirement was to give students a broader understanding of not only a different language, but other aspects of foreign culture as well. It had become increasingly obvious, though, that in the span of one semester, students were neither gaining or retaining enough of that knowledge to apply it. Hence, the decision was made to increase the mandatory study of one foreign language to a full academic year. “Minimum exposure to a foreign language cannot be achieved in only one semester even with two semesters, we do not claim to build proficiency We can only give the students a minimal understanding on which they can build," Dr. Flozentals explained. In addition, she noted that since the 19605, America's attitude towards other countries has come across as one of condescension. While the English language has been labeled a mandatory secondary language in many countries for years, America has seemingly made no effort whatsoever to reciprocate, and has actually decreased its demands on students in the area of secondary languages. “Many countries resent the fact that the U.S., being the world power it is, doesn’t make an effort through language requirements to improve its relations," said Rozentals. The two-semester requirement will affect only next fall's incoming freshmen, and it is certain that placement tests will be used to determine whether or not every freshman actually needs a full year of ROALD SATEREN edilor inrfhlel TEDD PETERSON assoCIale editor language to receive that basic understanding of foreign culture. “If somebody has a fairly good background in a language, he shouldn't waste money repeating the same material," Ftozentals said. The department's decision has come at an opportune time in the area of federal funding. Within the past month, the President's Commission on Foreign Language and International Studies urged the federal government to spend $178 million more than the $67 million now being spent, allocating some $51 million to colleges and universities that pushed international studies. According to The Chronicle for Higher Education, the commission Tenure: academic freedoms override By PENNY BECKER The issue of faculty tenure has been debated ever since its implementation, however, most Augsburg professors feel the pros outweigh the cons. Recently the Echo interviewed nine faculty members about their views on the tenure system. Although all of them realized the dangers and limitations of it, eight of them believe tenure is the most feasible method for preserving academic freedom and job security. “Tenure is a necessary protection," said Catherine Nicholl, assistant professor and department chairperson of English, the only non—tenured professor interviewed. Grace Dyrud, professor of psychology, said, “His- torically it has been important. Faculty did not unionize and demand high wages; in exchange, they got job security and the tenure system." Theoretically, academic freedon is the purpose for the tenure system. According to Assistant Professor of English John Mitchell, the notion of job security has been a side-effect. In the 1970's there have been few academic freedom questions and the focus has shifted, instead, to job security. Because tenured faculty are general- ly the last to lose their jobs when cutbacks occur, tenure has been faulted for protecting poor or unprofessional teachers at the expense of good ones. “There are problems and will always be problems with tenure," said Beverly Durkee, associate professor and department chairperson of mathematics. “Tenure can become a protection for unprofessionalism. Fac— ulty, in general, including admin- istration, has not provided any way to deal with the problem of the faculty member who is unprofes- sional." “The dangers are very large," said Stephen Gabrielson, assistant profes- sor of music. Gabrielson, the only termed Americans' incompetence in foreign languages “scandalous,” and said that colleges and universities "should requre at least two or three courses in international studies of all bachelor's degree candidates." At present, the increased require- ment at Augsburg will affect only the language department. However, with the incentive of federal aid, others, such as Amin Kader in the department of business administration, have begun to discuss the possibility of adding international studies require- ments to their lists. “Yes, we're going to explore this possibility," Kader said enthusiastically. professor interviewed who favored abolishment of the tenure system, said, “We‘ve had people tenured who we need to get rid of." Professor of History Khin Khin Jensen's concerns were slightly different and dealt with professional stagnation. “I'm wary about those who don't pursue scholarly endeavors and improvements in courses and teaching methodology,” she said. “I am constantly seeking and searching for ways to make history interesting." The dangers of the unprofessional, undedicated, or insincere faculty member are not without solution. According to Myles Stenshoel, professor of political science, a tenured faculty member may be fired if his behavior warrants such action.

The suggestion of implementation of a five-year contract to replace the tenure system was met with general disapproval. “Then you are reducing tenure to represent competence rather than academic freedom," said Mit- chell. Dyrud said, “Colleges would have a tendency to hire younger teachers they could pay less and would probably keep them for only ten years." The general contention that aca- demic freedom is best preserved by the tenure system overcomes the fears of the system for those faculty interviewed.

Show moreougsburg confessions " Recently, an Augsburg student studying abroad wrote to me that he felt ill at ease in discussions with other students in Europe because they all seemed so much better in- formed than he. He said he could not seem to find the answers to rebut their arguments and contentions (es- pecially when they were attacking U.S. policies abroad, mentioning policies and positions of which he had not been aware). As i pondered my reply to this individual student, I reflected on the far more general phenomenon of the educational preparation of American students. American formative education (i.e., ore-collegiate education) does not stress reading on a wide variety of topics and issues \ ‘ apart from “assignments.” American society itself does not stress reading. Only a minority of people today learn the news from a printed source. Secondly, our education does not stress the skills of argumentation, debate and discussion. As a result, the young American adult, unless he/she has sought these skills on his/her own, comes to college less well read than he/she should be and less able to argue and discuss even that which he/she does know. Rather than lament, the question should be: what can we do about this weakness in our education? lf instructors pile on a lot of recommended or supplementary reading, they are likely to get complaints and negative feedback. If a course stresses daily discussion and debate, the student is often inclined to feel pressured and “on call." How do we solve our dilemma? Can we emphasize debate in kindergarten? Can we instill the art of reading into a non«reading populace? Where does America go from here? There are no easy answers. P.S. I wrote some words of reassurance to my student studying abroad, but I really do not have the answers to this perplexing question facing America today. i have to think about it!

Theatre, Tippecanoe and De/a Vu. Perhaps insane is not a fair description of the actors mentioned; uninhibited may be more accurate. But then that's not quite right either. I guess there‘s no way of getting around it—all four are painfully honest in Tippecanoe and De/‘a Vu, so much so that it leaves one wondering about his own mental condition. The Dudley Riggs Theatre uses satire in its most effective form as each skit of situation comedy forces the audience to laugh at characters whom we identify as our roommates, relatives, neighbors . . . and yes, even ourselves. The characters portrayed are exaggerations of some of the best, and some of the worst of the human species—and so no one is uncomfort- able in the audience because no one is beyond the scope of Dudley Riggs satire. If the actors appear to be insane it is only because the characters whom they portray are insane and they in turn are a reflection of their society. Just what is insanity after all?

Show moreBy ESTIE BROUWER The Cabaret Singers’ Christmas show has become a holiday tradition for many of us. I, at least, have come to depend on it as a kind of annual initiation into the warmth and excite— ment of the Christmas season. In that respect, this year's show, presented for three consecutive evenings last weekend, was no disappointment. Carbaret opened their first set with Lojeski’s spirited arrangement of “Don't Take Away the Music." It was evident from the moment they appared on stage that this group works well as a group—they have an almost tangible sense of unity and an incredibly energetic stage presence. The audi- ence is immediately caught up in that energy and made to feel a part of the show. And so, from the earliest moments of the show, the audience watches and listens with prejudiced eyes and ears—they genuinely like those people up on stage because of the energy and vivaciousness they convey. In sharp contrast to the up—beat feel of “Don’t Take Away . _ was the second tune on the program, Kerr's mellow arrangement of “Sad Sweet Dreamer." “Dreamer” is a piece that We heard Cabaret do time and time again without much change in style or interpretation. Besides, I felt the piece lacked dynamic expression and visual excitement—it left me pretty cold. I must admit, though, that “Sad Sweet Dreamer" has one of those melodies that people walk around whistling or humming for days after having heard it. In fact, I‘m just now being subjected to an indignant glare from my cat, who was disturbed mid-nap by my whistled rendition of the tune. Robert Stanley Peter Gardner singing “Soan You Might Have Liked. " Quality show despite minor problems Cabaret Singers deliver highly energetic performance Cabaret‘s generally nice blend suffered a bit in their presentation of the McCartney/Lennon tune “You Won‘t See Me." At points throughout the piece, I had no trouble picking out some very strong individual voices. I felt the charming choreography made the first half of the piece, but I was let down a bit later by a long stretch of swaying, that choreographic staple that's fallen back upon so often in the absence of better things to do. Cabaret's men positively shone in their comical rendition of “There Is Nothing Like a Dame,“ from the Flodgers and Hammerstein musical "South Pacific," Jeff Sandgren delivered some great solos, and Todd Tischer, with his characteristically clownish yet lovable stage presence, endeared himself to the crowd. l'm compelled to qualify my praise for the piece though, with the observation that “Dame” is pervaded by an incredibly sexist attitude that I find impossible to disregard. Sorry, Rodgers and Hammerstein. “Sometimes” is one of those pieces that, in some other context, would probably come across as overly sentimental and trite. But Cabaret delivered this piece, dedicated to their parents, with a sincerity that was pure, and genuine. If for no other reason, I would have been partial to "Some- times“ merely because it gave the audience a chance to hear a little more of Lori LaBeIle's expressive piano work. It's too bad the stage arrangement didn‘t allow the audience to see LaBelle as well as hear her. The last two numbers of the first set, “Mr. Sandman" and “Jump Shout Boogie" were low points of the show for me. The group's choreographic —ECHO Photo by EM Kariien Cabaret Singers dance and sing with vivacious holiday spirit. iECHO Photo by Kyle Liieizon interpretation of “Jump Shout Boogie” came too close to a disco feel for me to feel entirely comfortable with it. In both of these pieces, I felt the choreography got a bit too involved to allow for a really smooth musical delivery. The show's second set, devoted entirely to Christmas music, opened with a cappella arrangements of “Ding-Dong! Merrily on High," “Nigh Bethlehem" and “Some Children See Him.“ Dave Soli's tenor solo in “Some Children . . was beautifully and expressively delivered. Next on the program came a pair of perennial Christmas favorites—“Let It Snow" and “The Little Drummer Boy." “Let It Snow" was also one of my favorites of the show; I felt the choreography. the blend and tone quality of the group, and the solo by Todd Tischer all came together and clicked for a really pleasing product. P.D.Q. Bach's “Good King Kong Looked Out" was a great reflection of the group‘s sense of humor. Successful delivery of this crazy piece depends entirely on a mock-serious delivery. Understandably, l saw a few smirks on the faces on stage. but as a whole the group did a respectable job of retaining their composure. “Christmas Is the Warmest Time of the Year" was another of the show's successes. The blend, tone quality. expression, and choreography were all neat and nicely»done, and made for a Continued on page 3 Big Band man Gardner’s got jazz!

All selections for the show were arranged by Gardner. and were tunes that he chose not because of the music itself, but because of the value of the lyrics. People familiar with Gardner know that he is usually seen behind a string bass when it comes to jazz. but for this show, the lyrics were his as he sang his way into the hearts of all those in attendance. The coffeehouse (coffee and cookies supplied) began promptly at 8 pm. when the band took the stage. Gardner, sporting a white blazer and blue ruffled tux shirt came next. and started right in with an upbeat tune written by himself entitled "Big Band Jazz Sound." “Big Band" was a red» hot opener. with vocals supplied by Gardner. His band of 4 trombones, 5 saxophones, 4 trumpets, drums. bass. piano, and Vibraphone played well together, probably due to the fact that most of the members of Gardner's band play (or have played) together in the Augsburg Jazz Ensemble Highlights of the first set were "Nancy" which featured Vibes player Dave Hagedorn, an alien to Augsburg.

Essentially, Cuckoo ’5 Next is a satire on American institutions of mental health while Justice for All is a satire on the American judicial system. The thrust of each film is a head-to- head conflict between a strong-willed and warm-hearted underling and a strong-willed and cold-blooded super- ior. McMurphy (a not-too-crazy, self-admittedinmate) and “Big Nurse" wage war in Cuckoo 's Nest; in Justice for All Al Pacino plays a defense lawyer who takes on Judge (John Forsythe). In both these films the people who run the show prove themselves to be not only antipathetic to the professed goal of their institutions, curing minds and serving justice, but downright bent on perverting those goals. Big Nurse conscientiously and regularly administers just the opposite of helpful treatment. The judge has extended the sentence of a boy wrongly imprisoned in the first place, his only offense a broken tail light. He argues at one point: “I don't give a damn about this individual" and at another: “Some- times we have to punish the innocent in order to scare the hell out of everybody." Both films have some hilarious footage.

In Justice for All the theater audience was convulsed along with the film’s three young lawyers who split their sides at the news that (Pacino) had just been asked to defend Judge (Forsythe) on a rape charge. Another judge, played by Jack Warden, keeps us in stitches at his cowardly flirtations with suicide. In one scene he takes Al Pacino for a ride in his helicopter which has no gas gauge. He makes a game of estimating how far his new fill of fuel will get him and turns for home only several miles after has reached the half-way estimate. This time—you guessed it— he doesn’t make it. Well, they do, but the helicopter crash lands in a foot and a half of water. Still, Justice for All, like Cuckoo's Nest, does not shun emotionalism. It's easy to cry over Billy Bibbitt's suicide after Big Nurse strips him of the glimmer of manly pride that McMurphy has helped him find. One will also weep for the innocent inmate Pacino is trying to get released from prison after two and one-half years. When he can no longer believe Pacino’s feeble promises that “it‘ll only be a little while longer" this utterly guileless person steals a rifle and takes hostages, for which he is peremptorin gunned down.

Senescence was never more charming than Lee Strasburg's as the grand- father. And Jack Warden and John Forsythe depict horribly credible maniacs. Cuckoo’s Nest made a “clean sweep" in Oscars for acting, directing, and script—five of the biggies. I doubt that Justice for All will match that, in spite of its many outstanding and engrossing features. For one thing, the sub-plots detract from the main thrust of “corruption at the top." One of the sub—plots involves Pacino‘s partner, another sensitive defense lawyer, who has recently won a murder case by his self-admitted “brilliant defense" of a guilty client. A week later when the released defendant murders again, (the partner) goes berserk. Another subplot with the grand- father provides us with some background on Pacino: his parents had abandoned him; he's gone to law school because that‘s what grandfather wanted for him; he‘s divorced, fighting for custody. It also empha- sizes the breach between the ideal of being a lawyer and the dinginess of practicing law, for grandfather con- veniently forgets that Pacino Is a lawyer and prefers to talk of his becoming one. Both of these sub-plots raise pointed questions about the profession of the law and make the film appear to be particularly thoughtful while you're watching it. But they serve to minimize the impact of Pacino‘s sacrifice of his career for reneging on his commitment to defend Forsythe. We're deprived of the satisfaction of admiring Pacino's grit because we both know the better part of him is relieved to be out. Where Cuckoo‘s Nest developed steadily and ominously toward a shattering conclusion, Justice for All uses a shotgun method: It hits you in lots of ways, but never with one blast strong enough to make a permanent impact.

The concert opened with a piece called Festive Overture by Dmitri Skostakovich. It is a very impressive piece with a lot of stylistic and rhythmic variations. The band did a good job of portraying these mood changes with good dynamic contrast, but had a bit of trouble staying together in the faster moving sections. Guest soloist Thomas Gilkey played with the band on a number entitled Concerto No. 1 for Horn. He is Director of instrumental Music at lnver Hills Community College, and plays free lance with groups varying from the Minnesota Opera to the Ice Follies. The Concerto exhibited the great versatility of the French horn, an instrument which rarely enjoys the spotlight. The second half of the concert opened with Serge Prokofieff‘s March, Op. 99. The band seemed to play with more confidence than it had in the first half, and played more tightly and in tune. This was true throughout the rest of the concert. Again this year the band is quite young. The majority of band members are freshmen and sophomores, and less than half were in last year's band. But Tallman has put together a group of very talented musicians, and they show a lot of potential. Exhibit reflects depth of Waggoner By TERRl BOCKLUND Fine Arts Editor In Augsburg‘s College Center Gallery the works of Phyllis Waggoner are being exhibited through Dec. 18. Waggoner‘s works to be shown include hand-woven rugs and paint- ings. Her interest in weaving has been developed by various studies in the art and culture of the lndians of the Southwest, and by other special exper- iences with groups such as the Thread- benders, the Textile of Minnesota, the Fibers Today weaving show, and WARM (Women's Art Registry of Minnesota). The educational training of Wag- goner is varied. and she has studied different art forms of design. painting, color, photography, and tapestry. As an undergraduate, she studied at Iowa Wesleyan College and the University of Minnesota. and received her Masters of Arts at the University. Additional educational studies she has pursued include Southwest lndian art and culture at the University of Wisconsin at River Falls, and as a teacher has served at the Walker Art Center and the University of Minnesota. Waggoner has exhibited her works in and around the Twin Cities since 1974. She presently resides in Minneapolis, and is employed at the UniverSity, teaching design.

Show moreletters racism, too. So Socrates, said the “perpetu- ator," this is a circle (vicious). The reason for concluding that INCAR causes hatred and racism is that Ms, Lammers, a member of lNCAFt whose writings have appeared in the Echo, seems not to recognize individual choice so much, but rather sees decisions coming about by larger groups acting on smaller groups. Therefore decisions are not by individual choice but rather by group or mob force; therefore lNCAFt could be the only cause. For instance, her analysis of the American feelings toward the Iranians is not very perspicacious. Since hatred is a consequence of anger, fear, or insecurity, it is possible for an American individual to arouse hatred within himself towards the Iranians without any external factors other than the data. Even from reading the New York Times, whose stories are the most objective and intelligent account of the incident, one could still decide to focus anger and hatred on the Iranians. Believe me, the human mind has all the necessary tools to propogandize itself into believing, doing, or interpreting something in a certain way without any outside help, except for the data. I do not disagree totally with Lammers' account of the phobia towards the Iranians that is being “created” by the mass media, Carter, and the oil companies, but I cannot agree that all “attacks” on Iranians in this country are for fascist and racist purposes; such as attacks on Iranian students who supported the seige of the American embassy in Tehran. Did you ever hear of telling someone Continued from page 5 you‘re “pissed off as hell and you‘re not going to take it anymore!"? Even if we allow Lammers the statement that these events are “a concerted effort to intensify racism" we will find that she causes her own problem. The word intensify means “make or become intense or more intense." In order for the words: make, become and more to make any sense there has to be something which is made, becomes, or becomes more of that thing. And since racism is that which is intensified, it must have pre- existed to the intensification of it in a less intense state. From this I have to conclude either we are all fascists or fascism is distinct from racism, even though it includes it but then so does everybody else. What I mean, following Lammers' logic, is that she has not proved the events she cites which intensify racism and necessarily imply the desire to set up a fascist government. Next, I‘m sure there has been at least one pacifist movement in history which has deterred racists or fascists. Just because I can't cite one off hand does not invalidate the above statement. But even granting Lam- mers her statement that “pacifist movements have never deterred racists or facists“ I'm sure we can find individual pacifists who have con- verted (more than deterred) racists from their ways, Obviously she has never heard of the healing power of God or psychological traumas which cause people to change. Lammers' problem is that she sees everything in categories and opposites, and not individuals or harmonies. Also she doesn't realize that not all bosses are an}: 7510mm/{iuicA/17/itL-M mad“ Aron/“(Meade 338-6425 SWt‘CIals: Mirmlm. lap Beer 2 25c 9711 — TUESDAY 3 THURSDAY RIP Nights 2 Im i, n '2 WASTFD WEDNESDAY $2 00 at the door. 911 all the tap beer you can drink No (‘li iilzw Bm Illlllktw 25‘ Call booze and cocktails 509! v SUPER SUNDAY Complimentary \ I'vi,.

Hence, some racists who are not bosses can, through passive actions, be converted from racism, since there is no significant economical benefits of being racist. Her statement (an absolute) that “the idea of passive resistance is not developed by oppressed workers but rather . . . can be invalidated by one contrary instance. The Pharisees during the era of Hellenistic oppression in Jerusalem, who were the common religious people of the Jews and who knew that the Greeks had to be extirpated out of their cultural- religious society. instituted the idea of passive resistance against the Greeks. In conclusion I'd like to pass the observation that Bobbi Lammers has a very limiting, stifling and categorical view of REALITY and that her logic at times is fallacious, which is probably why her REALITY is distorted. “Yes, how true was the observation that he (existence) is a many sided animal and not to be caught with one hand (categories)," said the stranger. “Strategy was this plan and not disaster." Larry DeSantis paper surqeru By LEW HOTCHKISS “Doctor, it is like this: I went to an Augsburg house party, had a few beers, talked to a few friends, went home and woke up writing stories for the Echo. " “You mean that you don't remember anything before that time?" Doctor Perrier, my therapist, asked, grabbing his pen with great expectations. “Not many authors do. I bet you forgot everything before you wrote your book, I'm A// Flight, You’re All Right, Hemingway, Shaw, Michener, Hollingsworth, Norman, and Shockman all forgot their pasts. There must be some connection between writing and amnesia." “Yes, that is a possibility. But, in this situation I'm the doctor and you are the patient. Yes, I know you are majoring in psychology, but that doesn‘t make you a doctor over night. You haven‘t passed your State exams." “I haven’t taken them yet," I protested, turning my back to him on the couch. "Now don't get too defensive. You know how bad anxiety is for your health." "That's not right doc. I thought you were supposed to be a non-directive therapist.‘ ' “I was until you came along. You are quite some nut.“ “Yeah, I know. I ridicule myself just to get even with myself." “Ah, a self—persecution complex. You know you could get me a position in the APA (American Psychological Association). Just for that I won't charge you any more." I looked at him and showed my amazement, “Yah, and you won't have to worry about getting your own practice after you get out of school. Once you pass those monkey tests you can team up with me." Doctor Perrier lit his Sherlock Holmes pipe and started puffing. “But doc, I may not want to become a practicing psychologist like you. Maybe I'd just as soon become a philosophical plumber or unemployed fiction writer. Happiness isn't all green you know," He smirked at me and his pipe went out, "Seems as though your bound to end up on Hennepin Avenue, sonny boy. I don't usually get trite with my patients, but for the moment I'm going to play the part of the squeakey wheel. We do get the grease, you know?" “Only to keep you quiet, but not because you truly need it. After all, wheels can‘t help themselves, but you can.” He paused to light his pipe. His brow wrinkled as he pondered his return to my argument. “You win this time, but don’t expect too many small favors. You‘re well aware that there is nothing wrong with you, aren't you?" "No. You‘re kidding, and all along I've believed that it was me." "No, it's not you, it's the whole world that's gone nuts. Problem is, there's not enough social science people around to cure the world of its fatal diseases. Individual people are fine until you put them in groups. That's how to start creating problems. The amazing thing is that we work things out anyway." "Yes, I agree with you doc. Is it time for me to go home? I’ve got a sequel to write to my last column. If I don‘t wrap it up lots of people are going to be unhappy." The gray-haired doctor stood up and went to the door. "By all means, go right ahead, but don't let me see you ever again.

Show morepoul kilqore The year l was in second grade was an exciting one for me: I went to Shoppers' City and bought a black mask, got the fat kid down the block to dig a cave for me in the field across the street, and asked for a utility belt for my birthday. I think my parents consulted Dr. Spock, muttering something about “how tough it is to raise a boy in this day and age." The answers weren‘t in child psychology books, however. but in the T. V. Guide. My problem was that l was addicted to Batman. And why not? What could have been more attractive than two men who put on costumes, drove around in a souped-up car, and fought criminals? What boy would not be fascinated by grown men who climbed up building walls and spent much of their time in a secret cave filled with computers? Every Wednesday and Thursday night, l, along with almost every other kid in school, sat in front of the television, marvelling at the adventures of Batman, the Caped Crusader, and Robin, the Boy Wonder. The shows were all basically the same. First of all, the crime was committed. The criminals (Riddler, Joker, Penguin, Mr. Freeze. . .) had a certain theme, and they stuck to it. For example, if the theme concerned clocks, the criminal would have henchmen named “Tick” and “Tock.” He would set his sights on stealing, say, the world‘s most expensive watch. And when he captured the Dynamic Duo, he would try to kill them by placing our heroes in a giant hourglass. After the initial crime, Batman and Fiobin would receive a clue from the villian, who always went just a bit too far in helping the crime-fighters solve the mystery. Invariably, Batman would figure out the riddle, Robin would use the adjective holy, and the two would be off to an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of Gotham City. After an entrance via the bat-rope, a fight would ensue, and after a flurry of biffs, Dams, and pows, the Dynamic Due would be captured. Then came the fun part. The criminals, choosing to bypass the simplicity of finishing Batman and Robin off with a gun, instead subjected them to every imaginable form of torture. The show would end then, with the crime—fighters on the verge of being run over by a train, catapulted across town, or transformed into giant postage stamps. How Batman and Robin saved themselves was seen the next night. same bat-time, same bat—channel. After an ingenious escape at the start of the next show, Batman and Robin would eventually get involved in another fight with the criminals. This time the good guys would win, and the villians would be “up the river for good,” only to return to Gotham City in a few weeks. Batman and Robin, meanwhile, would return to their everyday lives as Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson. Batman influenced us second-graders more than other super heroes did, simply because a Batman, who was mortal, could exist (unlike Superman or the Hulk, whose supernatural powers made their positions unattainable). More than once i dreamt of being the Caped Crusader when I grew up. After Batman bubblegum Stardust Bowl "A Great Place to Unwind” 2520 26th Avenue South Just Blocks Away from Augsburg’s Campus Restaurant - Cocktail Lounge - Live Entertainment Dancing Enjoy Our Fun and Friendly Atmosphere Open 24 Hours cards came out, all the Mickey Mantle and Al Kaline baseball cards became obsolete. When our schoolteacher took a poll to determine the class’ favorite T.V. show, only My Mother the Car came close to challenging Batman. ' somewhere between second grade and high school, I realized that Batman was ridiculous. I saw that the possibility of Batman existing was, in fact, more remote than that of Superman existing. Seeing the program’s inferior drama, however made me like the show even more. The reason? I started watching Batman for its humor. Scenes which l had viewed as perfectly legitimate in grade school suddenly seemed preposterous. The names included in Batman. for example: Gotham City, Mayor Linseed, and J. Pauline Spaghetti. i also realized the hilarity of'the scene in which Bruce Wayne used rubber cockroaches to bug a criminal's lair, not to mention the scene in which Batman asked his butler, “What's it all about, Alfred?" The most ridiculous aspect of Batman, however, was the heroes' uncompromising righteousness. Batman and Robin let numerous crooks get away because of their refusal to break the speed limit or park in a “No Parking" zone. The propaganda included advice Batman constantly gave to his younger lrg‘arttrrten—advise ranging from “we must not litter" to “fasten your seatbelt, o in. IA” good things must come to an end, though. Batman went off the air, the fat kid down the block lost weight, and the Penguin became trainer for the ltalian Stallion. Critics have analyzed and commended Batman for its topical allusions and social comment. I don‘t know about that. I do know, however, that there are many nights when I wish i could turn on the T.V., flop down on the couch and watch the Caped Crusader in action once again. ' repercussions By LEE LILLQUIST Now, there has been a lot of speculation recently about whatever happened to those hardcore environmentalists that really got into being organic a few years back. Two of them, Beowulf and Grendel Zoots, are alive and well and living in Hubbard County. But now instead of being into (town sleeping bags, earth shoes, and mountain climbing in the Rockies, the brothers are into much more natural pursuits. They're just living in the woods in a cabin of their own makin', raisin' rabbits and vegetables, and earnin' $6.00-an-hour repairin' repossessed mobile homes in Bemidji three days—a»week. Sounds wholesomehuh? Well anyway, I had to talk to these two last weekend about this certain problem I had. i found them sitting on a log in the front yard shinning rabbits and passing around a bottle of that good ol' Wild Turkey liquor. I was surprised. “That bottle doesn't look too organic to me!" I kidded. “That wind's so damned cold our bong water kept freezing," Beowulf responded, offering me the bottle. I refused with a woeful look in my eyes, pulled out my jackknife, and picked up a little dead rabbit instead. “Oh sorry, we forgot," Grendel laughed, “you‘re a Christian this time of year, ain't ya?“ They both laughed even harder when I explained my abstinence by the fact “Big Brother" might be reading this column. i got straight to the point then. “Well, you see boys, i got this problem," I said in an rather embarrassed fashion. “You see. . . I keep getting lost in the wilderness. (Finally testifying as to my ability of wandering in circles in every trackless forest I amble into without a compass)“ “Talk about your coincidences," Beowulf answered, “you, me, and Moses all got the same problem! Why, | recollect how this one time I had to survive for 13 days on insects. tree toads, and hallucinogenic mushrooms. Unfortunately, Grendel finally found me.“ Beowulf looked like he was going to start crying. “l loved those mushrooms," he moaned. Grendel and I both laughed. “Unless you're stranded in the woods with a 144 member, all-girl marching band," Grendel said seriously, “getting lost in the woods is a bummer, especially for young, clean-cut students such as yourself who have Monday morning classes to get to. But if you used your eyes you‘d always know where abouts you were." “Look for the moss growing on the north side of a tree,” Beowulf broke in, pointing at a tree where the moss grew only on the south side. I looked at him with a oh-thanks—Daniel»Boone glance. Grendel continued apparently addressing the rabbit at his feet. “Most people can't see the forest ‘cause the trees always get in the way. (That's Grendel's most oft repeated cliche.) I mean everyone needs the answers right in front of their noses in black and white. A compass can't tell you anything about where you might be going. If it could it would tell you to stay in the woods." I heard an “Amen” from Beowulf as he started on another rabbit. “Ain't that a fact," Beowulf added, “what does anything tell you if you ain‘t listening to what it has to say. People read a newspaper but unless they read between the lines they still don't understand much of what's really going on." I started on my second rabbit. “l‘m still lost,“ I said, not understanding much of what was really going on. “Just let me say this about that . . Grendel concluded in a political tone of voice, "Ain't we all friends? Everyday Beowulf and | mourn for all those lost souls that think the compass is pointing towards a house in Burnsville, a meaningless job, and psychiatric help by the time they're thirty." | asked where the compass should point. Beowulf and Grendel answered in unison. "Towards reality!“ they shouted and both laughed. I sighed in relief. I was no longer lost. For I had been lucky enouch to discover "reality," two-feet underground, while digging fencepost-holes, just this last summer. Where else, but down on the farm. Nov. 30. 1979 Show less

This sense of disappointment and anxiety is not peculiar to Augsburg College; it is a national phenomenon. In fact, a few years ago some administrator, perhaps the President himself, read a report to us that indicated a predictable psycho- logical syndrome in people and institutions facing declining expecta- tions and making the necessary adjustments. But if the liberal arts institution has any value at all, it is to create sensitive models of humanistic resilience for coping with traumas that will eventually confront the nation as a whole. The problem of faculty morale is minuscule. but microcosmic, com- pared to what the national morale will be like when the walls close in to conserve energy and the frivolous use of the automobile stops. Also, one might observe that what the faculty are experiencing in their careers has been felt by their students for several years, regarding their career expecta- tions. Student morale has suffered, and the Faculty has not always been sensitive to this problem. Meanwhile, it is important to remember that the people who compose our Faculty did not come into teaching, certainly not into teaching at a private liberal arts college, because they were motivated by status or greed. They came because they had a vision for which they were willing to pay almost any price, excluding their very souls. Although some administrators and others have expressed bewilderment at the Faculty’s seeming obsession with money, I would emphasize that if a Faculty such as this is concerned with money, something indeed is wrong. Either the Faculty are paid far too little, or there are fundamental dissatisfactions with the way the College is conducting itself. I remind everyone that not too long ago this same Faculty voted for frozen salaries during two years of double digit inflation to help boost the College out of the red. Nor am I aware that any Faculty member has ever argued for or expected indiscriminate promotion or extravagant pay raises. What creates bad morale is when deserving people do not get their just rewards long after conventional deadlines have passed and when people feel they have sacrificed their income to a bottomless pit. This is a camel of another color. If this Faculty has a morale problem, it considerably varies from person to person and from day to day. Surely everyone understands that just because some of the Faculty have chosen to confess this problem publicly, it doesn‘t mean that any of the Faculty will capitulate. academic- ally or morally, to hard times. This is correctb n A rather glaring error in content was overlooked in the Nov. 16 issue of the Echo. President Anderson was quoted: “We can afford to have our budget drained by property acquisition." The sentence should have read: "We cannot afford to have our budget drained by property acquisition." Nov. 30, 1979 Continued from page 4 just one of those rare occasions, apropos the waning Seventies, when some of us feel like singing the blues to a larger audience; meanwhile we will continue to pay our dues, because there will be no smooth sailing or soft camel back riding through 1984. This Faculty has and will return to laughter, but don‘t expect us to smile all the time just because Big Brother is watching us as the Eighties run through our lives. Sincerely, John Mitchell English Department Is it purblind dogmatism? To the Editor: . As an enthusiastic student of inflammatory rhetoric and ritualistic jargon for 30 years. I felt right at home reading the letter in the Nov. 16 Echo with thetitle: "Unite and Fight back!" There were all the Pavlovian reflexes which so comfortably serve as a substitute for thinking: “fascist”. “racism”, “bosses of the US", “ruling class", “imperialist” and “incorrect political line." This vocabu- larly is all so “deja vu", and I think we are intelligent enough to recognize its source. l have some news for the author of “Unite and Fight Back": The reaction of Americans against Iranians was no "fascist attack." It was the honest reaction of decent but exasperated people who resent a bullying, bloodthirsty rabble venting its vengeance on innocent and convenient scapegoats. Americans are sick and tired of being pushed around by malcontents whose only language is that of the gun and the club. There is a fanciful quality to ..the letter which prompts me to wonder: ls the author actually observing the American scene or is it all a fantasy engendered by a purblind dogmatism’? I refer to statements which refer to a “fascist movement" here. I think that I can speak for the over- whelming majority of Americans when I say that we Americans do not wish a “correct political line" to be imposed on us by doctrinaire and self-righteous ideologues of any kind. William E. Oyler Asst. Prof. of German Positive feedback vs. Augsburg College To the Editor: It has come to a point in which students, faculty, and administrators question this section in the Echo. Lately it has expressed conflict in regard to student vs. student, student vs. administrator, and finally faculty vs. administrator (a basic necessity for a thriving college paper to attract the interest and attention from its readers). But on the same note isn't it sad that this column merely ignites tension and steam instead of giving positive feedback that individuals so richly deserve? A phenomenon occured recently in Urness and Mortensen Tower and I felt that I would take the time to commend the party involved. One night I came down the Urness elevator, walked into the lobby area and into a small room behind the old switchboard. l was stunned. There before me was the most recent up-to-date positive advancement for the on-campus resident today, the vending room. With my pockets filled with quarters, my stomach aching of hunger, and my mind boggled because of that midnight “cram before exam" I started to feed the machines money. I threw two quarters into one and down dropped munchies. In the next machine came a cheeseburger, then chicken soup, and finally a Mountain Dew, hissing as the ice fell. But I was not quite ready to go back to Law in the United States; the cheeseburger was cold. I took that cheeseburger and tossed it into the microwave without really taking the time to appreciate all this fancy machinery that surrounded me. Then it hit me. Last year living in Urness I remember many a midnight- cram-session going without munchies because there were no fast food vendibles. How could this have happened? Here I am, truly appreci- ating this service, willing to see this vending idea expand yet failing to let those responsible know how I feel regarding this vending area. Well, here you have it. The machines in the Urness vending room are so attractive and reliable, why don't we expand the machines to the game room? lam sure that the positive feedback would be louder then the student‘s kickback on the old machines that are not working properly. Why not keep a positive flame burning and exhaust a corroded torch? Maybe a lesson can be learned by this. If everyone would be willing to commend the good before attacking the bad, positive feedback could lead to better decision making at Augsburg, Long Live leedback, Rod Sill P.S. Thanks Jerry Johnson! A distortion of reality To the Editor: “You can't send soldiers off to kill people they don't hate." In order to kill a person you have to hate that person. To hate another person is to have an anti-that-person attitude or a racist attitude toward that person, Hatred is a feeling which is caused or “manufactured” by certain factors. International Committee against Fla» cism (INCAR) wants to form an “anti-racist, anti-imperialist war movement," but in order to have an anti-anything movement hatred and racism have to be caused first. Therefore INCAR causes hatred and Continued on page 8 ngsburg confessions College. When we don't feel good, we are usually quick and able to say why not. But when we feel good, the reasons are sometimes taken for granted and are seldom enumerated. Writing this on the eve of Thanksgiving, let me confess what some of those things are which have made me feel very good this fall at Augsburg College. . . . A serious and hardworking faculty with genuine con— cern for the welfare of students. . . . A student body with leadership, involvement and concern for the future as well as the present of Augsburg . . . Homecoming festivities with unusual participation by “old grads" as well as present students. . Founders Week and its emphasis on the sciences and the Science of Humanity, with better preparation than heretofore because Homecoming came earlier than usual. . . . The remarkable morale of the football team that hung in there in spite of some disappointments, . . . The success of other fall sports such as soccer and women‘s volleyball, the latter team gaining third place in the Regional Tournament down in the Ozarks. . , . The drama production, “The Crucible," in the old music building (Stage 2) that featured a splendid cast and imaginative hard work to create a temporary theater out of that ancient Tabernacle Baptist Church. . . . Progress on facility improvements to provide more adequate offices for faculty, to link seven buildings, ultimately, without barriers, and to give the Main a new look and new life. . . . An excellent fall concert by the Augsburg Band and the high caliber of all musical performances. . . . Attendance at Chapel worship that has held up well throughout the fall, with excellent presentations. . . . Progress on the Renewal Fund effort which makes the goal of $4.8 million attainable. highlighted by a new challenge within the Board of Regents. . . . A host of positive efforts, activities and encouragements on the part of all segments of our community, too numerous to mention. . . . My own decision to complete my Augsburg chapter next July, thus giving the college an opportunity to choose more quickly its presidential leadership for the 'BOs. May I suggest that you make your own list of what makes you feel good? I hope it outweighs whatever may have contributed to a less positive feeling about the past fall. Of course, we are all entitled to air what is negative in our experience. but I confess to feeling even better after recounting the good things which I think have happened. Oscar A.

For the physically disabled person intending to find a school with a program helshe is interested in, the hassles and confusion are magnified by having to consider the physical and programmatic barriers present at each college. These types of barriers are readily seen and evaluated. But a more difficult one to define and measure—although possibly the most important type—is the attitudinal bar- riers that disabled students face. According to Wayne Moldenhauer, Director of the Center for Education of Non-Traditional Students (CENTS), “A person with physical disabilities will usually select a college that has a good support base and better attitudes over a college with minimal or no physical barriers." Physically disabled students on campus usually need either a person or a program to assist with their special needs. Classes must be held in places accessible to a wheelchair. The visually impaired student needs someone to assist with reading and note-taking. These types of program- matic and physical barriers may keep many potentially good students from attempting to further their education, and that is where the barrier becomes an attitudinal one. Jerry Bergdahl, Re- source Specialist working for CENTS. defined an attitudinal barrier as “something that stops 3 student from going to school and that keeps them from becoming involved in classroom and social activities like the rest of the student body."

TeGrootenhuis was disabled from a car accident nine years ago. barriers is the first step toward reaching an attitudinal awareness of the needs of handicapped students, thereby improving the surrounding attitudes. “The removal of architec- tural barriers will increase public information and this in turn will increase the validity of the handi- capped students abilities," according to Moldenhauer. In effect, eliminating the physical or programmatic barriers will lessen the importance of one‘s ability to climb stairs. and allow the person's other abilities to gain recognition. Physical barriers. such as stairs. make access difficult or impossible. College campuses have until June 1980 to remove architectural barriers that inhibit mobility. Programmatic barriers are obstructions that inhibit a student's full participation in any ac- tivity, for example, scheduling a class in an inaccessible building. Since June 3, 1977. post-secondary institutions have been required by law to provide programmatic accessibility; a class in an inaccessible room will be moved it a handicapped student is enrolled in it. These regulations come from section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Roger Simon, assistant director of CENTS. explains that: “An attitudinal barrier is a barrier that can‘t be changed through legal mandate. it is an attitude that we all carry within us toward some group. object or thing, generally based on a lack of exposure, and knowledge of that group. object or thing." Gary TeGrootenhuis, resource spe- cialist for CENTS, agrees that lack of exposure is a contributing factor toward attitudinal barriers facing handicapped students. TeGrootenhuis was disabled in a car accident nine years ago. “Because of how much—or rather how little—l was exposed to the disabled population before I broke my neck in college, my stereotypes were that disabled students were cripples, asexual, and had a disease. Even though they were in college, i thought they weren't going to get very far," TeGrootenhuis said. “How are we to expect people to understand something they never see?" said Jerry Bergdahl. another resource specialist for CENTS. “People look at the disability, not the abilities. People see my wheelchair, not me." The exposure that most people have to the handicapped is seeing them having difficulty with doors. stairs or the cafeteria food line. While those types of things may cause problems for them, their abilities in other areas may go undetected as a consequence. When considering plans for elimi- nating the physical and programmatic barriers on the campus. the planners have to adopt certain attitudes. According to Jeanne-Marie Moore. Director of Disabled Persons Resource Center. University of Denver. “Plan- ners must assume the disabled students will participate in all campus events, and must assume that disabled people don't always want to be in the first row." It is easy to see the effects the physical barriers will have on the disabled students, but it is not so easy to see the consequences of the attitudes he is confronted with. Moldenhauer said, "One possible effect is of a handicapped student remove buying into the attitudes of people he holds in reverence." For example, fear of confronting an instructor or administrator who has a negative attitude will usually have a negative impact on the disabled student's learning process If, while taking a test. the disabled student needs additional help of some sort. helshe must not be intimidated by the instructor or the attitudes of fellow students in order to have his needs met to complete the test. Another problem relating to atti< tudes that some disabled students face is their own need to do even better than physically able students. “One of the biggest pressures i see with the handicapped student is that helshe has to do better than his/her peers. Because of this. handicapped students end up cutting back on their social life. They almost end up putting themselves in a closet,“ according to TeGrooten- huis. By trying to pass by his/her peers, the handicapped student may lose out on valuable friendships and the release of tensions related to the academic world. Even though society has become increasmgly sophisticated in dealing with attitudes. it has often glossed over the freedom to be prejudiced. This is another factor contributing to attitudinal barriers. TeGrootenhuis Former student Augsburg Hanson sculpts With a special tool deSIgned by Associate Professor at Art Norman Holen. Dewey said. “In today's liberal society. an individual feels as though helshe doesn't have the right to be prejudiced. Therefore. we usually don't deal with those rights in a positive way." A way to confront negative attitudes towards the phySicalIy disabled is to have clear priorities in the programs to be conSIdered. according to Patti Hague. director of facilitated programs for CENTS. She suggest that questions such as. Which are greater; the limitations set by the body. the mind.

Show moreAuggies dominate North/and Tournament for third year By HOWIE SMITH Staff Writer Over this past Thanksgiving week— end, for the third year in a row, the Northland Sponsored MIAC Hockey Tournament was held. Also for the third year in a row, Augsburg was there when it was all over to claim first prize. Playing three games in three nights isn't an easy way to begin a season but the Auggies proved equal to the task. They defeated St. John’s 9-4, Concordia 9-5, and St. Thomas in the final 6-3. Friday night saw the Auggies and the Johnnies square off for the first time since the Johnnies tied the Auggies 4—4 last season for the only mark on their undefeated conference record of 13-0-1. Few people thought this game would be that close. It wasn‘t. Augsburg started Mike Burk- hardt in goal in a move that surprised a few people. When asked why the change from the expected start of Dick Bain, Coach Ed Saugestad replied, "He‘s been looking real good in practice thus far so we decided to test him in a game situation." With Augsburg winning 9—4 one would think that the star or stars of the game were those who were scoring. Besides Burkhardt, the real standouts were the players who killed off the penalties. The Johnnies went on the power play six times, compared to none for the Auggies. Still the Auggies controlled the play and the puck. With one less player, the Auggies outpassed and even outshot the Johnnies. Everyone plays on Coach Saugestad's penalty units; he has no set defensemen and no set forwards Anyone who is fresh goes out to kill it off. On more than one occasion the Auggies held St. John's without a single shot on the goal and they even came up with a Shorthanded goal by Chuck McCan in the second period. With two goals each by McCan and Defenseman Brian Gauger [6] celebrates alter flipping in Augsburg ’5 third goal in the championship game against St. Thomas. Augsburg won 6-3. A ECHO Pholo by Roxanne Rauschnot Erikson, one each by DeClercq, Thayer, Sova. Andrews, and Evans, it would be easy to look here for stars, but the team really deserves the credit. Saturday night saw another interest- ing matchup this time against the Cobbers from Concordia. The players didn't need to be reminded that it was the final game of last year, in the national tournament, that Concordia embarrassed the Auggies and sent them home from the tournament much earlier than they expected. This night. however, the Auggies were ready. Bain started in goal and although he faced only seven shots in the first period, three got by him. The Auggies had trouble getting the puck out of their own zone. After the first period Concordia led 3—2. (Augsburg’s goals were scored by Kevin Gordon and another by Erikson). Between periods Coach Saugestad had some not-so-kind 7th 8: CEDAR WEST BANK Pitcher Nights at Pilot’s Club Miller & Miller Lite Sunday— 8:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. \l\(l Tues. and Thurs. — C9-11 P.M.

Mike Erikson, scoring his fourth goal in two games tied it after the Auggies applied heavv pressure in the Cobber zone. Saugestad said later that he made a slight adjustment in forechecking and that enabled them to hold Concordia in their own zone. But, when the Auggies failed to capitalize on a two-man power play advantage, the Cobbers let them know that they hadn't folded yet. Concordia scored a go ahead goal, on the power play, at 10:15 of the second period but Al Sova came back to tie it on a nice feed from Jeff James at 10:54. Less than a minute later, Terry Brown scored on a beautiful deflection in the slot off a shot from Bob Schwartz. The period ended with the Auggies once again killing off another penalty and leading 5-4 after two periods. The third period started out with the Auggies again forechecking extremely well and pinning the Cobbers deep in their own zone. At 2:22 Brian DeClercq scored the game winner on a rebound in front, and 21 seconds later Kevin Gordon scored his second goal on a nice backhand shot that eluded the Cobber goalie to make it 7—4. Concordia scored once more to make it 7-5, but then Brown scored his second on another deflection in the slot and Gordon finished out the scoring at 13:15 with a nice low slap shot to get his hat trick, Augsburg were down Concordia, as the third period shots on goal would indicate: Augsburg 20, Concordia 4. The Auggies had 53 shots for the game and 108 for the two game total, 'St. Thomas must have noticed Augsburg's potent offense because they were checking and hitting at every opportunity in order to try to slow them down. Bain started again in the nets as the Auggies were set to defend their championship and what followed resembled more closely a poorly fought war than a championship hockey game. There were 18 penalties called (11 against Augsburg) and many of those were questionable (the obvious ones were ignored), Coach Saugestad was so irate after the game that he had trouble standing still in one place long enough for someone to talk to him; two of his players were injured and won’t be able to play again until sometime after Christmas. Jeff Jarnes suffered a separated shoulder and Bob Thayer is out with a thigh injury; both played very well the entire tournament. Chuck McCan opened the scoring with his third goal of the tournament at 8:55 on a loose puck in front. After the Tommies tied it on the power play at 12:01 (Bain was screened by his own defenseman), Paul Hughes got Augsburg's first power play goal of the tournament at 16:50 on a slap shot from the point. The Auggies got their third goal of the night on one of the prettier plays of the tournament. After a Tommies rush up ice, the Auggies broke out with DeClercq feeding Brown at center ice. As Brown crossed the Tommies blue line, one of their defensemen stepped up to meet him. Brown moved to his right and, as the defenseman started to push him off the puck, he heard Brain Gauger yell "Brownie!" Brown, with a defenseman on him and without looking up, whipped a cross-ice pass that hit Gauger in full stride. Gauger flipped it past a very surprised St. Thomas goaltender. That seemed to be all the Tommies needed (or wanted) because the hitting really started to pick up from here. Play went back and forth with neither team in control (nor were the referee‘s) until late in the period when Gordon scored his fourth goal of the tournament to make it a 4-1 game. The Tommies weren't ready to roll over. The Tommies scored on a power play twice, once at 1:12 and again at 8:11 of the third period to close the gap to 4—3. Play became very rough. with helmets and sticks and bodies flying everywhere and pushing and shoving after every stoppage in play. Then, at 12:11, on the power play, it was Terry Brown again making the big play. He took a pass from behind the Tommie net and wheeled out in front to stuff it under the goalie to make it 5-3. McCan widened the gap after picking up a loose rebound at 13:36 and firing it into the back of the net. That made it final: 6—3. Augsburg College Minneapolis. MN 55454 Nov. 30, 1979 Show less

To advance to the final day of play, Augsburg battled their way to a three way tie in Thursday's pool play. The team performance was not up to Augsburg's potential. They dropped their first two matches of the day losing to Central Methodist 8—15 and 9-15, and to Macalester 6-15, 13-15. Friday the Auggies pulled together to defeat Black Hill State and Valley City State. These victories brought pool play to an end. Augsburg was matched against St. Catherine, and fired up in their attempt to avenge their state tournament loss to the Katies. Behind strong center hits by Julie Reinke, who intimidated the Katies, Augsburg advanced to semi-final play by defeating St. Kate‘s by scores of 15-9, 4-15, and 15-5. Coach Timm said, "The St. Kate's match took such an emotional charge that it drained the kids." She cited this as the cause for Augsburg dropping their next match to the Doane of Nebraska team. The Auggies failed to defeat this team due to physical and emotional exhaustion. Augsburg drop» ped the first two games of the match 8—15 and 10-15. The Auggies came charging back to take the next two games but failed to hang on to win the last and deciding game. Doane's 15-7 victory advanced them to the finals and pitted Augsburg in a match with Macalester for third place, Both teams were exhausted after Strong second ha/fs help Augsburg By DAVE LEONIDAS At this writing, Augsburg‘s basket» ball team has a 2-0 record. At Stout on Monday the 19th, the Auggies came through by the score of 59-56 and last Saturday, Luther College took it on the chin. Based on these statistics as well as the quality of play displayed, the team is off to a good start, However, certain points should be noted. Augsburg came out fast in the first half against Stout and far too many turnovers resulted. Credit should be given to the coaching staff for doing their homework, though. The Auggies effectively shutdown the Stout attack by neutralizing their number one gunner.

Augsburg's setter and captain Dana Holmes was recognized by coaches as one of the best setters in the tournament in spite of the leg injury she was playing with.

Luther College provided another kind of test for the Auggies.

Play was ragged with Luther controlling the boards and Augsburg‘s shooting percentage was low. At the half. Luther held a five point lead that should have been greater. Once again, the second half turned out to be a different story. The Auggies blew Luther out of their own fieldhouse through solid defensive play and a superb offense, outscoring the Luther Norsemen almost 2 to 1. Final score: 77—61.

Why a new look? Well. the women cagers are young. Very young. You can count only one senior on this squad. with a veritable plethora of freshmen and sophomores. Throw in a junior transfer or two and you can call this team young: and talented. There are only five returnees from last year's team. There is senior center Bobbie Jo Paige, a 6-footer who can dominate the middle. High scoring sophomore Linda Berg is back. bringing fear to opposing players. Sophomore Monica Fitzgerald and junior Stephanie Torgerson, both strong players, are also returning. And. after a couple weeks recuperation from volleyball, Debbie Thompson, a sophomore, will also be back. The new faces on the team don't look like rookies at all. They are led by junior transfer Irene Blilie, formerly of Arizona State and a starter for the Sun Devils. Look for Blilie and freshman Julie Goldstein to provide good shooting and playmaking. Other freshmen standouts include Robin Roisum. Stacy Stephens and Becky Vossen. The team may look young. but they are a talented bunch that has worked well in practice. The trouble may lie in what combination of talent to use in game situations. Making decisions is head coach Val Strachan. To help Strachan this year is assistant coach Cheryl Engel, a Mankato State grad who played last year for the Minnesota Fillies. The student manager is Lisa Ness and the trainer is Kathy Korum. The trouble Will be to allot playing time to this talented bunch. Coach Strachan looks to Paige, Berg and Blilie for a lot of time on the floor. The coach can then spell Paige and Berg with good rebounders like Stephens and Vossen. Also deserving of some varsity playing time are Goldstein, Torgerson, Roisum and Fitzgerald. Complicating matters Will be the return of Deb Thompson, who looked good as a freshman last season The team this year should have some fun, interesting and Winning times at Si Melby. They seem to have all the tools for winning basketball. If that's your type of cage action, fun and fast, come out and cheer your team! They deserve your support. The Auggie women cagers open the regular season next Tuesday, Dec. 4 in a game at Si Melby versus St. Paul Bible College.

Show moreeditorials Mora/e and academic quality Faculty morale is an example of complexity; its causes and effects are multifaceted. For the past month the Echo has interviewed numerous faculty members about the recent concern over morale, allowing us to draw a few conclusions about the matter. Respondents generally agreed that morale was low and that its causes ranged from the lack of performance of today‘s student to the no-check-cashing policy; from the absence of academic comradeship to institutional disunity; and from promotion barriers to substandard wages. Two responses receiving the greatest emphasis were the promotion system and the pay scale. Both of these are an integral part of the economics of Augsburg. One can assume that morale is something engendered within a person. In that sense. morale is a person’s intrinsic outlook on life. But it's not that simple. Morale is contingent upon a horde of things. It's the extraneous, extrinsic pressures of society that demand something more than simply an idealistic acceptance of circumstance in light of a clearly substandard economic position. lt's understandable that economics today plays such an integral part in the mental makeup of a person. For example, just how far does a salary of, say, $17,000 go if a car costs $4,000, monthly rent runs $300 and if food for a family of four exceeds $100 weekly? There comes a point when a person has to say, “Raise my pay or promote me so I can just get by, and Hi worry about the morale.“ The recent solution to cut faculty in order to raise salaries drew an understandably negative response, due in part to the lack of communication in the process and the either—or approach used. Moreover, academics were left holding the short end of the stick. In times of crisis it‘s easy to point fingers or find scapegoats for problems (a prime example is pinning society’s faults on a very distant, impervious bureaucracy), but that is no answer. Specific problem areas need to be addressed. Is development running at full potential? Should fund-drive emphasis center on academic strength (i.e. endowment)? But faculty whose primary concern should be teaching, should not be put in the position of finding the answers to Augsburg’s economic shortfalls—that‘s something the administration and the Board of Regents should be doing. . A "strong" administration and a “strong” Board are worth little if Augsburg‘s academic atmosphere and quality are not maintained. If the maintenance of a quality education dictates an increase in salaries, promotions or alternatives that would maintain academic strength, then they should be pursued rigorously and immediately before we fall behind. Continued on page 5 letters It's a camel of a another color To the Editor: There are several ways to talk about faculty morale. One non-academic way is to say that. from time to time. there are a lot of people hurting around an institution. To aconsiderate extent. this Faculty has suffered the shortfalls of the Seventies In silence. The straw that broke the camel's back was the Administration‘s recent report to the Regents that our morale "is good." It seemed that people with good. if busy. intentions were unaware that behind 4 the usual bickerings of acadme there was some serious pain. Now there seem to be so many straws in the wind that there may not be enough camels to back them up. much less to get humping. One supposes that promotion and pay would indeed boost faculty morale. But some faculty hope and hurt in far more complicated ways. Some feel their very careers have been compromised by forces beyond their professional control. not to mention “ANDTHE MORAL OF THE STORY ls. . .” HUM YouK £919 STAFF CARTboN\ST.’ RumouK HA5 lT THAT l’M @693???

And Augsburg, as an educational institution desiring students to achieve their career goals. should help students acquire this skill. Well, if learning by example is as important as psychologists say it is, Augsburg students are in big trouble. Case in point: I was given a note the first week of school asking when I wanted to receive my student government-alloted salary. l designated my first pay date as October 15. Next, I received a M-4 form to fill out with instructions to return it to the Business Office. I completed the form and took it to the Business Office. When asked if I could be helped. I explained to the girl that l was turning in my W-A form, The girl stared at me like I was speaking Yugoslavian. She directed me to a woman at another desk. "Oh. that's not my responsibility. go to Plant Services." “But the note on the W—4 form said Business Office," | protested. Her finger pomted to Plant Services. After mumbling a few unprintables, | stormed out and went down to Plant Services. The woman there told me that Plant Services only took care of students who were paid by the hour, not salaried. She called the Business Office, “Why did he take it down there,“ the same woman I talked to asked. "That‘s okay, I'll bring it down there,“ the woman in Plant Services assured me. "but you won't get paid until November 15." | groaned. "WIII that be a problem?" "Who eats? Who pays rent? Who has a social life? Why do I need money?“ So 30 poverty-stricken days passed. Actually, it was kind of fun sneaking out of the Blood Plasma Donor Center, hoping no one would see me. Or stealing money»back Pepsi bottles from my parents. I really enjoyed staying home Saturday nights and watching “B.J. and the Bear." But the most fun was selling my Barbra Streisand album collection back to the Wax Museum. I waited 25 minutes for the Business Office to open after lunch and another 15 standing in line once it did. Close, closer, oh. so close. Finally, the window. "Sorry. there is no check for you. Why don't you step inside," l was told. Back to the woman who led me astray. “You got paid in October." Wrongo. I told the no—paycheck saga once again. I was cut-off. “You don't have a W-A form on file. That's why they didn‘t run your check." "Oh?" my hands readying themselves for the nearest neck. "We‘ll draw you a check since you didn't get paid in October. We really shouldn't do it but . . . Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. For the amount of money a student pays. you would think he would be treated with a little more respect. How many times has a Business Office or Plant Services employee‘s check been help up because of administrative tumbling? Very few. I dare say, I hope this is a secluded incident. I would hate to think what one of those sweet ladles in the Chinwag would do when they received a letter telling them their contract will not be renewed because they are non-tenured.

The man could easily be mistaken for a professor, however. Sometimes, there is a suit coat. He carries a brief case instead of a knapsack. A thermos replaces the customary Styrofoam cup. And then, of course, there is the age. But 66-year old Marvin Trautwein is not a professor—at Augsburg anyway ——he is a student, the oldest student on campus. Trautwein‘s first “College days" were spent at the University of Nebraska from 1932 until 1935. Being a student in the depths of the Great Depression posed its problems—the greatest being very few jobs available. Trautwein wanted to go into linguistics, but there were no jobs open in that field. “I couldn’t face graduation without a job," Trautwein stated. So he took matters into his own hands. A junior, he made an analysis of what would be his best bet for a job. Teaching was the answer he found. the best subjects being social studies, Latin, coaching, and music. Trautwein promptly changed his major to history. took an advanced course in Latin. and courses in coaching and music. His efforts paid off. Trautwein was the second graduate to be hired from his class, at the highest salary paid for a new teacher—$100 a month. His subjects were history, Latin, coaching, and music. He had second thoughts. however, and resigned the position the summer before he began to teach, Trautwein worked for a year at J.C. Penney’s before accepting a $90-a— month teaching position in Dannebrog, Nebraska. He taught social studies. Latin, and coached.

Nebraska where he taught high school. It was here he finally added a different subject—psychology—to the famous four. Although Trautwein is nationally and internationally famous for his work in psychology, one of his most interesting claims to fame is that he once taught Johnny Carson while at Norfolk. Carson was a cheerleader, a “Minute Man“ (service organization). and a YMCA sponsor. He was described by Trautwein as “very much the same as he is now.“ A “C” student. Carson was handsome. suave, and well-liked. At the beginning of his career. Carson was a magician, much of his practice performed at school. He always brought a deck of cards to class which Trautwein made him put away. “He came from a nice family and didn't tell "off-color“ jokes like he does now." Trautwein added. In 1942. Trautwein organized and launched the Norfolk Junior College. '\~ Trautwein remained there as Dean until 1948 when he accepted a position as a research assistant and counselor at the University of Minnesota. After two years. Trautwein made his first appearance at Augsburg—this time as a professor. He came right after the Science Hall and Library had been built and helped to plant the trees in the Quadrangle. Trautwein was an assistant-associate professor of psy- chology and education. Director of Placement, freshman counselor. and worked close with G. Mortensen. Martin Quanbeck. and Dean Dahlen. Trautwein also taught remedial reading courses and “how-to-study classes" to the then 877 enrollment. He named one of his star pupils as Ed Saugestad, present hockey coach. During the same period. Trautwein was teaching at the University of Minnesota. In 1958, Trautwein left Augsburg to become one of the first high school counselors and also to teach history and psychology. At Robinsdale High. Trautwein became known for his many innovative ideas. In his psychology class, Trautwein used a plan called "Walden Ill," modeled after B.F, Skinner's Walden II where good behavior was reinforced. Trautwein's classes worked for points given for academic achievement, for completing options, and for modifying their own behavior. that of another human being. or an animal‘s. Students proceeded on pr0jects at their own rate. They took tests when they felt they were ready for them. having to pass at an 80 percent level or retaking them in a different form. The sooner the student took the test, the more pomts that student received. Traut— wein received over 100 requests on his "Walden Ill" from various schools throughout the United States and four foreign countries. Recently retired. Trautwein is currently teaching one course in “Geriatric Psychology" at lnver Hills Community College in Inver Grove Heights. He describes his work as "a serious mission." “It is one of the three most lucrative fields in psychology today.“ Trautwein ex- plained. “Twelve percent of the population is over 65. Twenty percent of the voters are over 65. this age group considered the most consistent. Congress is interested," Trautwein continued. stating that our youth— oriented culture may be gradually moving back to where it used to be when the wisdom of the aged was respected. “Retirement should not be as if you‘re "passing out.’ but something really new and big,“ Trautwein concluded. And Trautwein is following his own advice. At 66, he is attending Augsburg for two important reasons. First. Trautwein is taking a German class from Professor Steinmetz, Attending the International Congress of Psychology, Trautwein Wlii address 30000 people next summer in Liep2ig. Germany. "I can get along well enough with the common people, out I want to be able to speak to the professors," Trautwein said. Trautwein is also taking Dr. Wood's Creative Writing class to help him with the novel he is presently working on. The book Will present a utopian high school. a perfect school where every problem is solved. versus a distopian high school. the traditional nightmare. The work will include such problems as academic achievement. smoking. vandalism. terrorism. race relations. sex. drugs, and alcohol. The emphasis Wlii be placed on the principal and the faculty. He is writing it for school kids. teachers, and administrators and has high hopes for its success. Other post-retirement prejects of Trautwein's include setting up a consultation service (he Will be licensed as a consulting psychologist in February) from 1980 to 1985. workshops on teaching psychology from 1980 to 1982, workshops on preparation for retirement in 1982 until 1983. and possibly running for some political office in about five years. Trautwein said that he is extremely happy to be back. "The faculty has been kind. considerate, and helpful. The students are very friendly, very nice. and I am grateful to them for accepting me in class." Attitude Continued from page 1 or society? How does someone with a handicap overcome limitations? Can people with severe physical disabilities really go on wilderness camping trips, hold professional positions, live alone or plow snow? What is a handicap anyway? The problems of attitudinal barriers are complicated and well integrated into our society's value system. Professionals dealing with disabled students universally agree that the best way‘to meet and overcome these attitudinal barriers is awareness through visibility. The programs of CENTS are both innovative and informative means toward achieving this awareness, Their Conservation of Human Resources (CHFt) classes is one means toward this goal. They also send out a newsletter “Access Awareness" to college administrators and are in the process of compiling information to be put into a “teacher tested" manual for establishing workshops and other awareness projects. Through these outreach programs of CENTS, perhaps society will gain a clearer understanding of what it means to be a physically disabled student. A fear of the unknown or of lack of “normalness” governs attitudes that face these people. Through awareness, perhaps we will come to realize that as TeGrootenhuis stated, “We are not handicapped by our disabilities; it is our sOCiety that handicaps us.“ {Riverside 300mm "THE WEDDING PLACE" Michael A.

Show moreKennedy points to record, avoids issues By TEDD PETERSON Associate Editor As thousands crowded their way into the gymnasium and waited for the speaker to begin, they were enter- tained by a small singing group performing rousing renditions of songs such as “He's Got the Whole World," "Put Your Hand in the Hand," and “When the Saints Go Marching In." No, it wasn't an evangelical revival meeting. It was Senator Edward Kennedy's first Twin Cities appear- ance in his 1980 presidential campaign, held in the Macalester College Field House on Nov. 14. Ironically, Macalester is the alma matre of Vice President Walter Mondale, President Carter's running mate against Kennedy. About 3,500 people attended the rally, and it was estimated that between 3000 and 4000 others were turned away. The vast majority of the crowd were college-age people. Service orientation stressed Library staffers By KRISTEN OLSRUD About 40 Augsburg Library student assistants and librarians attended the fall library orientation Friday, Nov. 16. The evening, planned by the Library Promotion and Student Welfare committees, began with samll-group tours of the departments: circulation, reference, music library, reserves and CLIC, cataloging, acquisitions, L12 (the juvenile and curriculum library), and audio-visual. A student assistant from each department spoke to the tour groups, explaining the purpose and procedures of the department. After dinner which was served by the librarians, Margaret Anderson, library director, spoke about the role of the library staff. She quoted some impressions that fourth graders had written after studying their libraries, from the Wilson Library Bulletin: “Librarians are one of the main products of books. “Ideas about record-keeping in libraries have advanced to the point where they are no longer understand- able. “The way librarians keep track of all the books is only to wonder at, not to understand. “When he is first starting to learn about it, a good librarian might well work around the clock, twelve days a week. “Librarians are very interesting folks. All their ways are helping ways There were as many hecklers as supporters in the crowd. Kennedy was over an hour late, and his campaign staff was booed as they tried to appease the impatient spectators. As one staffer tried to start a chant of “We want Ted! We want Tedl.” some people responded with a chant of “Ted wants us! Ted wants us!" Kennedy began his speech talking about how much he liked “Fritz” Mondale; praising his work as Vice President, However, he spent most of his speech criticizing Carter. He questioned the leadership capabilities of the Carter administra— tion. He said, "I‘m concerned about the confused direction of our country. . . . The sounds we hear from the White House are not sounds of confidence." He sympathized with Mondale for the “impossible” task he has of serving under Carter. The President‘s energy program was the next subject of attack. throw party and glad-to-see-you ways.” Anderson said that every job in the library—whether it is shelving books, typing labels, filing catalog cards, or checking out materials—is important. “The books aren’t enough," she said. “We and the books make up the library." A goal of the Augsburg Library staff, she said, should be to try to live up to the child‘s observation that “all their ways are helping ways and glad—to-see-you ways." Anderson concluded her talk by explaining the purpose of the library party. “We want to give an opportunity for the student assistants to learn about the various depart- ments, to get to know each other, and to have a good time. So let‘s get on with it!" Entertainment began with freshman Eugene Sims of audiovisual singing “Everything Must Change." Then Gayle Pearson and Robin Case, both juniors from the music library, gave a presentation (in costume) based on George Gershwin's popular folk opera, Porgy and Bess. Junior Thu Lam of circulation predicted fortunes with palmreading, and Reference Librarian Marjorie Sibley analyzed handwriting. Jim Olson, director of audio-visual, showed the movies The Music Box, The Mole's Christmas Tree and Christmas in Sweden. All enjoyed the party and look forward to the library picnic in the spring. Kennedy criticized Carter for unfairly asking the American people to make sacrifices to conserve energy. “While we tighten our belts the oil companies grow fat," he said. Kennedy pointed out that “the (Carter) administration has failed to reduce our dependence on OPEC oil." He also made vague references to his support of gasohol and solar energy. Kennedy attacked Carter‘s efforts against inflation. He said, “The President has lost the war to inflation." Referring to the famous sign Carter has on his desk, he said. "The buck not only stops there, it shrinks there." While strong in his criticism of Carter‘s actions, Kennedy for the most part did not have alternatives to offer; he never said how he would do things differently. Many in the crowd were disap- pointed by Kennedy’s speech. There were cries of “Issues! Hey Ted, how about some issues?" In response, Kennedy returned to the podium and agreed to answer a few questions. No one asked about what he would do concerning energy and inflation, One questioner expressed disappointment in Carter's lack of action on minority concerns, and wondered what Ken- nedy would do for minorities if he was elected President. Kennedy did not talk about anything he would do if elected, but merely pointed out that his record in the Senate would show how strongly he supported minorities. Augsburg M-PIRG to form M-PIRG, the Minnesota Public lnterest Research Group is a student run political action organization located on the campuses of many Min- nesota colleges and universities. There are active groups at the U of M, Mankato, UMD, Bemidji, and many of the smaller private colleges in the state. In fact, Augsburg is the only ACTC school that presently doesn’t have a group. Augsburg now has an opportunity to form an M-PIRG organization. On Wednesday, Dec. 5 at 4:30 pm. in the there will be a meeting of interested Augusburg students to organize and get information on how to go about it.
