New Dean Appointed by Greg Olgers

Dr. Philip E. Beal has been ap-pointed the new Dean for Student Development of Hope College.

Beal replaces Dr. Lamont Dirkse, who left the Dean 's posi-tion to re turn to teaching in Hope's education depar tment .

The title " D e a n for Student Development" replaces the title "Dean of Students" used in years past . The new title is seen as more descript ive of the Dean 's role at Hope.

Beal brings with him an exten-sive background in student ser-vices administrat ion.

He gradua ted from Cornell College in Iowa in 1957 with a ma-jor in psychology and German . He subsequently went on to ob-tain a Ph.D. in higher education-s tuden t personnel f rom the University of Oregon in 1965. He held various various positions in the University of Oregon Dean of Students office until 1970. F rom 1968 until 1978 he served in a number of roles at Pacif ic Lutheran University, including dean of men, dean for student life, and vice-president and dean for student life.

He assumed his most recent position, that of dean of s tudents at Saginaw Valley State College, in 1979.

Beal ' s interest in the Dean for

Student Development position was prompted by his exposure to this institution through his sons, both Hope students. Beal, who had not known of Hope before this time, cites " a feeling of ap-preciation for the kind of school Hope is—liberal a r t s and Chris-t ian ."

Beal calls his adminis t ra t ive and personal style "highly par-t icipatory," noting that " the per-sons involved and affected by decisions, policies, and pro-g rams need to be involved in for-mulating and reacting to those decisions, policies, and pro-g r a m s . "

Toward this end, Beal intends to maintain an open door policy with students. He also mee ts with the member s of the student af-fa i rs staff on a weekly basis.

He encourages others to act and input: " I ' m very well a w a r e that what gets done si not due (solely) to m e ; it 's due to the ef-forts of a lot of other people—not just staff , but s tudents ."

" I won't be a f ra id to propose my ideas ," he added.

Beal commented on a number of issues:

Regarding Hope's policy of for-bidding alcoholic beverages on campus, he noted "The policy has been thoughtfully reviewed

recently, and I would certainly uphold and encourage enforce-ment of the policy as it now s tands . "

On paritals, he said " I think it 's consistent with the na tu re of this college to have a policy regarding late night separat ion of the sexes in the rooms."

Beal is encouraged by Hope's Student Congress, and hopes to s e e i t w o r k t o w a r d ac -c o m p l i s h i n g those goa l s it establishes for itself. " I t must have a potential for making an impact on the college," he observed.

Where disciplinary action is concerned, he noted, " I would hope that disciplinary m a t t e r s would be a positive learning ex-perience. Basically, my view is that everybody unders tands the guidelines. For those who choose not to observe the guidelines, consequences will follow."

Beal added that he hopes that s tudents will unders tand and ap-preciate the reasoning behind Hope's policies and "feel sup-portive of the a tmosphere and living conditions that a r e best suited to education and to the best living envi ronment for everyone."

Petrovich Passes Away Michael B. Petrovich, 52, a

m e m b e r of H o p e ' s h i s t o r y depar tment , passed away Fr i -day, July 11 at But terworth Hospital following a brain hem-morage.

A member of the Hope faculty since 1966, Petrovich was a scholar of E a s t European studies and an internationally respected interpreter of Serbo-Croatian, the language of Yugoslavia.

Twice he served as the inter-p r e t e r t o U n i t e d S t a t e s presidents, the first t ime in 1978 for President J i m m y Car te r dur-ing a visit by the late Yugoslav President Marshal l Tito and again in 1984 for Pres ident Ronald Reagan during a s ta te visit by Yugoslavian P r i m e Minister Milka Paninc . He also served as an in terpre ter for the U.S. Depar tments of State and Treasury.

He had been described by a representat ive of the U.S. Sta te Depar tment as "c lear ly the best , in interpreting ability and com-mand of English and Serbo Croa-t ian."

A native of Yugoslavia and a naturalized citizen of the United States, Petrovich c a m e to this country at the age of 21. He work-ed for the U.S. Depar tment of State as an escort in terpre ter for five years before joining the Hope faculty.

He held the academic rank of associate professor of history. He taught courses in European

history, with specialization in Balkan and Russian history. He founded the Hope College May Term in Yugoslavia and had recently re turned f rom leading a group of s tudents on the 1986 pro-gram (see ar t ic le next issue).

Petrovich was also the creator of t h e c o l l e g e ' s a n n u a l Rendevous wi th His tory , a dramat ic por t rayal of historic figures by m e m b e r s of the Hope faculty.

Petrovich served on several federal panels to evaluate pro-posals for overseas exchange study p rograms . Among them was the review panel for the prestigious Fulbright-Hays Doc-toral Disertation and Faculty Research Abroad program. He had also studied abroad as a Fulbright Scholar.

Petrovich was born September 29, 1933 in Zemun, Yugoslavia. He left Yugoslavia in 1954 and studied industrial design and English in London before receiv-ing a scholarship f rom Shepherd College in West Virginia. He later rece ived the m a s t e r ' s degree in international relations and the Ph.D. in history from the University of Chicago.

HOPE COLLEGE ANCHOR August 3 0 , 1 9 8 6

From the Editor Hello and welcome!

1 suppose that you could safely assume that the summer is of-ficially over when classes begin and the old college routine is tried once again. At any rate, I gather that the summer proved stimulating enough and if not, then coming back to Hope may seem like the real vacation.

So, here we are again within the pages of the Anchor, ready and able to bring to you the news of the campus and surrounding area.

And not only the news, but also volatile, controversial issues on current topics as well as schedules of activities in the various departments of Hope's fine arts.

Invariably, this new academic year has seen some personnel changes at all levels of the staff and has brought together some of the msot adept and creative minds that this place has to offer. So in order to avoid sounding too pompous, I'll just introduce the members of this year's staff and as time goes on, they will become more familiar through their work in these hallowed pages.

First off, handling the mechanics of getting the printed material into this form will be typists K.L. Harter, Jocelyn Jonikas, and Wendy West. Believe me, their task is monumental, but they're sure to be able to meet its demands.

One of the many new faces on our staff is news editor Theresa McPherson. Theresa is a senior who is palnning on a career in law via her philosophy background. Handling news will come as her second nature.

Junior Ben Hanneman in not unfamiliar to the Anchor as he comes from a very prolific reputation as sports writer for the past two years for this newspaper. This year, Ben will head up the sports department as editor covering not only his two favorite sports football and basketball, but also those less-than-publicized Hope competitions.

Whitney Leigh is going to be holding down the position of features editor. Whitney's a senior political science major who has a habit of getting into everything.

Our arts and entertainment editor is none other than Dave Hepenstal. Dave held the post last year and did a fantastic job of covering the various music, theatre, and other fine arts activities around campus.

Another new member of the staff is advertising manager Jon

Vandervelde. Jon will be familiarizing the city of HoUand and the campus itself to you students through advertising and hoprefully will also help us to keep ahead of our proposed budget for the com-ing year.

Senior Katey Vierkorn will enter at this point as the new business manager to keep track of in-flow and out-flow by forever balancing the books, keeping the Anchor out of the red.

Freshman (can you believe it?) Paul Chamness is going to be bringing his skills as a photographer to head up that very impor-tant field of the paper.

On either side of me will be two very capable editors. One is familiar to us as having been a news reporter for the past year.' Entering his sophomore year, Brian Breen is to be the assistant to the editor and will soon become familiar with the Anchor pro-cesses.

The third part of this triad has taken the title of consulting editor and is very much in tune with how the paper works. Coming out of the mothballs, is the ubiquitous Phil Tanis who does much of everything and very well I may add.

Finishing out the rest of the staff will be a motley crew of reporters, columnists, photographers, and cartoonists.

In a nutshell, this is who will be behind what you read in this col-lege publication and whom to contact in the event you may see a story unfold.

From now on I will open the invitation to anyone who would like to join our staff in any area. Feel welcome to let us know what is going on in this place if we fail to discover it, and our door is (near-ly) always open in the Student Offices complex in the DeWitt Center.

Good luck to everyone this semester and welcome (back) to all students.

Lou Valantasis, Editor-in-Chief

Just a little note to let you all know that the Anchor accepts ar-ticles of news and comment for each and every issue. The deadline for next issue is this Friday—so don't be late.

Straight Ahead Hope and Holland 110, or an in-

tro to how to survive in and around the friendly environs of Hope College.

by KirkKrae tzer

This column is more for incom-ing f reshmen than for anyone else, but those who a re interested in a re f resher af ter a summer away f rom Hope a r e welcome to attend as well. Hang on, here we go.

Like spending your weekends in wild drunken fervor, cruising nighttime streets? Guess again. Holland rolls them sidewalks up at 5 p.m. sharp every Fr iday and don't unroll 'em till sometime Monday morning. Besides, the only really good place to drink anywhere near campus is Sklles, and they know that just as well as

we do so religiously check i.d. You wanna drink, hide in a house, don't be loud, and suck down watery beer and play trivial pursuit. This is a typical Hope party.

You like flowers? You'd better, cuz around the end of April, you're gonna see more flowers than you thought could exist in the whole world, let alone one ci-ty. Yes, this is Tulip City, U.S.A. and you better smile when you say that. You will be so sick of tulips by the end of your four year incarceration he re that the d e s i r e to s t o m p o n e f l a t whenever you see it will be so in-grained in your consciousness that no one will want you around come springtime due to the damage you can cause to flower gardens.

Hope's a neat place, really. Let

me tell y'all about some of our featured attractions. First , we got the anchor here, which is what you're reading. I t ' s our stu-dent run newspaper, and is a Good Thing. Gotta gripe, thorn in your side, or complaint? Tell the anchor. Gotta pr ime bit of scandel tha t ' s sure to shock the rest of the campus? Tell the anchor. Tell everything to the anchor and they'll love you. Work for the anchor and you'll know everything and be loved and get paid. Wotta deal.

Remembering Michael Petrovich The death of Dr. Michael

Petrovich in July was a shocking blow to his colleagues, students, friends, and many others. A memorial service was held for Dr. Petrovich on July 19. The following are excerp ts from what was said then and from letters sent to the college by those who remembered and cared.

from Provost Jacob E. Nyenhuis T h e d e a t h of M i c h a e l

Petrovich came as a t remendous blow to all of us at Hope College, leaving us with a void which no one else can fill. Each of us has a different memory of Mike, but in our common memory there is a p ic ture of a d y n a m i c , im-aginative, energetic, seemingly indefat igable individual. One cannot condense into a few minutes the l ifetime of service to the College, to Mike's native and adopted countries, and to inter-national understanding. . .

Mike.. .st imulated a love for history in many. . .ways. For ex-ample, his creation of the annual "Rendevous with History," in which he orches t ra ted faculty and student colleagues in a dramat ic por t rayal of historic figures engaged in dialogue on a

significant theme, won rave r e v i e w s f r o m h igh school students attending the Arts and Humanit ies Fair and from alum-ni who were treated to a repeat performance at the Winter Hap-pening in February .

from Robert J . Donia, alumnus I wish to express sympathies to

you and the Hope community in the death of Mike Petrovich. Mike's enthusiasm for learning and for the truth was contagious for those of us who studied or first experienced foreign lands under his guidance. He was a teacher both by profession and by passion, and he inspired many students to ca ree rs in teaching and international affairs . His leadership and teaching will be sorely missed. But the impact of his commitment to peace and in-ternational understanding will be felt for generations to come.

from Conrgessman Guy Vander Jag t

During his years in education. Professor Petrovich showed un-paralleled devotion to his work and his students. His mastery of eight languages enabled him to serve his country with great

distinction and honor and to par-ticipate in historical events. Pro-fessor Petrovich will always be remembered as a remarkab le educator and an exemplary man. The void he leaves behind can never be filled.

from Harry Obst, Depar tment of State

He gave to the Department of State, and thus to the entire na-tion, dedicated and valuable assistance during various inter-preting missions over the last twenty-five years . Such was his talent that we entrusted him with some of the most difficult d ip lomat ic in te rpre t ing mis-sions. His ou t s tand ing per-formance during the State Visit of President Tito in 1978 and the visit of P r i m e Minister Milka P l a n i n c in 1985 is fondly r emembered by all of us.

from former Hope President Calvin VanderWerf

Mike, as we all know, was, in the literal sense, a top inter-preter for the politically power-ful of the world. But, at the same time, he was also an interpreter in a much broader and richer sense—an interpreter of one peo-

ple, one way of life, and one culture to another. He spent a lifetime as an ambassador of goodwill and peace, building bridges of understanding and respec t between the young leaders of tomorrow in two vast-ly different worlds.

Mike found his Beruf. his holy calling, in helping ordinary peoples of our globe understand, appreciate, and cooperate with each other . The fervor he brought to his ambassadorship was an inspiration for both students and faculty and was a big factor in enlarging and enhancing Hope's preeminent leadership and reputation in in-ternational education.

There is another side to Mike's charac ter that we also laud to-day—his absolute professional intergrity.

Mike was proud to be a pro-fessor at Hope College, proud to be teaching outstanding men and women, and he was determined to be 100 percent authentic. Discovered by Paul Fried, Mike was hired by the College without an academic background, on the strength of outstanding recom-mendations and his international experiences, and of the nobility

and integrity we all admired in him. In his own mind, this was not enough to qualify Mike for the teaching profession. On his own time and at his own expense. Mike drove back and forth to the University of Chicago to earn his Ph.D. degree from that institu-tion. This, he felt, not only enriched his background and teaching, but also demonstra ted h i s r i g h t to t h e t i t l e of "P ro fes so r " and enabled him to serve his students with total c red ib i l i ty and p r o f e s s i o n a l authenticity. And this he did faithfully and a d m i r a b K ^ a s our own daughter and hundreds of others of his grateful students will attest.

from Irwin Abrams, Distinguish-e d U n i v e r s i t y P r o f e s s o r Emeri tus , Antioch University

It is hard to believe that that great heart is stilled, that that contagious joie de vivre is no more, that that i rrepressible vitality is no longer here to stir us, that my dear friend Mike has left us.

I often discussed with Mike his studied in the Dubrovnik ar-

chives. I was impressed with the originality of his methodology, by the exhaustiveness of his research, and by the vigor and determination with which we was c a r r y i n g h i s p r o j e c t through. Scholars in Dubrovnik familiar with Mike's work spoke to me with appreciation of his contribution.

Vigor and determination were the hal lmarks of Mike Petrovich. He always proceeded as though there was no problem he could not surmount, whether it had to do wi th the in t r i cac ies of h i s t o r i c a l r e s e a r c h or the perplexities of a group travel schedule.

Mike's was an indomitable spirit. His great heart may have c e a s e d to b e a t , b u t h i s dynamism, his unconquerable approach to life, his warm friendship that we were privileg-ed to share—all this has made our lives the richer. Mike's spirit is still very much with us.

/ from George Arwady, alumnus, editor and publisher of the Muskegon Chronicle

It is hard to imagine that we never again will enjoy Mike Petrovich's laughing eyes; his humor; his sly, all-knowing look that quickly spread into a toothy grin; his great energy level and his infectious enthusiasm for life.

As a history major at Hope during the late 1960s, I took a number of classes with Mike. His knowledge of Eas te rn European history and politics was im-pressive, but it was his passion for the subject mat te r that I remember best.

That passion came out most vividly for me during the sum-mer of 1968. Mike served that summer as leader for the eastern tour of the Vienna Summer School, a s a teacher of Serbo-Croatian in Vienna, and as a leader of the GLCA Yugoslav-American seminar in his native Yugoslavia. I part icipated in all three programs, and grew fond of Mike as a person as well as a teacher. I can r emember him sparring o v e r ideology with out Intourist guide in the Soviet Union. I r emember him chatting excitedly with a Russian Or-thodox monk a t Sagorsk in the Sovie t Un ion . I a l s o c a n remember his personal tension before crossing the border into Yugoslavia for the first time since fleeing his native land.

M i k e w e n t b a c k i n t o Yugoslavia as a proud American citizen, in the tradition of those o t h e r g r e a t f o r e i g h - b o r n Americans who have been so justly honored this summer . His time with us was fa r too short, but he lef t a ma jo r mark on inter-national relations, on his scholar-ly field of study, on Hope College, and on many of his students.

I am honored to count myself among those for whom Mike Petrovich's life made a dif-ference. I am thankful for his friendship and for his life among us.

from Randy Durband, alumnus I have been extremely for-

tunate to know Mike Petrovich both as a teacher and as a dear friend. As a teacher he motivated and challenged me, just as he

invasion that is coming two or three yea r s down the line. Her aide de c a m p is Sa ra Schmidt. Leader of the mer ry crew (a.k.a . t h e b o s s a l i e n ) i s B r u c e Johnston. Make sure to pretend that they ' re really human be-ings; they work so ha rd at fooling us it would be almost cr iminal to let them think they ' re not suc-ceeding.

Student Congress. A Good Thing. Maybe. If they do their jobs. If they don't, they a r e a Bad Thing and no one likes them, ex-cept the people on Congress, which is to be expected. F r o m Congress you can h e a r anything from a lot of nothing to nothing about everything to lots about everything. It kinda changes f rom week to week, along with the cur ren t campus Thing to be Worked Up About. F o r the guide to Things to be Worked Up About, consult the Inklings, the other student periodical on campus (consider it a Good Thing) .

Public Safety. A Good Thing? I think so. You will be sure to hear more about them within two to three weeks, cuz no m a t t e r what they do, someone 's gonna get pissed. It might be parking, or the lack of it and a striking o v e r a b u n d a n c e of p a r k i n g stickers, or it could be their not ticketing the worst offender in a lot (non-handicapped in a han-dicapped spot) while nailing so-meone (probably with a han-dicapped sticker who couldn't find a spot) who's sitt ing in a no-p a r k i n g - r e s e r v e d - f o r - c o l l e g e -vans type of space. Something

like that . And now, onward. Phe lps

Cafeteria . Not a Good Thing. A Bad Thing. A Very Bad Thing. Avoid at all costs. They over-charge horrendously (you can eat very well while off campus for about half the price of their 15 meal plan) and never let you have any fun while you're in there. No flinging food, no going back for seconds on Saturday night, no spitting and no not fold spindle or muti late the displays. The punishment for this and other sorts of behavior? Having to wait behind some putz who stands blocking the orange juice machine, filling up glasses of o.j., drinking them, filling them up, drinking them, ad infinitum. That or getting your eating privileges taken away, which is really not a punishment anyway.

Things to watch for in Phelps. The helpers are grea t mea l t ime e n t e r t a i n m e n t . W a t c h t h e highschoolers flock around the nubile young co-eds tha t fill the napkin holders, t rying to find a way into her affections. Watch then the nubile young co-ed t ry to f igure out who's a senior and who ain ' t , and from there which one is the most likely prospect to take her to the par ty over on four-teenth street this coming Fr iday night. This bizarre mat ing dance is worth the price of admission and the punishment of the food (almost) and is not to be missed. It gets bet ter when the co-eds, vain as they are , head for the sunlamps come winter so they'll stay nice and tan and cancer pro-ne for the spring fever that

erupts usually every early April. Snow. A Good Thing, but only

for a few months. Holland tends to get buried under snow every winter, and Hope, being a pa r t of Holland, is no exception to this. Four or five feet ain ' t uncom-mon, so you bet ter like white and you bet ter like cold and you bet-ter like a lot of ti since it s tays around from November to April, and m a d e a valiant effort to last into May this pas t year .

Along with snow comes Colds. A Good Thing, if you like having all your classes cancelled for a week, a Bad Thing if you got it. Last year , three different types of flu hit Hope's cmapus , and there was something like sixty percent absentee r a t e among the professors. This was a Very Bad Thing, cuz some of them were gone for two weeks and had to c ram that ma te r i a l into their re-maining lecture t imes, and this is not fun. ven less fun is when you get the damned bug right before a week of tes ts (see below) or im-mediately preceeding a b reak .

Tests, par t one. Hope profs a re genera l ly c o n s i d e r a t e abou t scheduling tes ts and papers . However, despite all precau-tions, and somet imes because of them, there a r e weeks that have, oh, five or so tes ts or pape r s or maybe both due within a five day period. Bad Thing, squared. Do not expect to ear , sleep, or have a social life during these t imes. They happen rare ly , but when they do, watch out.

Tests, pa r t two. Finals . A Good Thing, if you're a senior, because you're used to taking them and

there 's no real te r ror in them, and most a re just final tests and not cumulat ive by this t ime either. For f reshmen, a Bad Thing, because you a lways panic. I did, my roommate did, everyone in the hall did (except the seniors), and you will, too. If not, you a ren ' t a f reshman. You just think you are .

Phil Tanis. A Good Thing. He's a student here, and he ' s also the second ward city councilman, which means his jurisdiction in-volves Hope and the downtown area . So, if ya got a problems and a re regis tered in this a rea , go and holler at Phil. He loves to be hollered at . Trust me. When you're done hollering, ask him about last y e a r ' s Stem Festival and he'll holler at you for a while. Turnabout is fair play and all that .

The Sun Dog. There a re two that I know of within walking distance of the campus . They a re immensely Good Things, and a re done by Bill Mayer , an a r t prof here. ONe of them is the big black th ingamaj ig in front of the cafe ter ia windows, the other is a big colorful thing in front of Her-rick Public Library (corner of River and 12th). Why are they good?Cuz they a re so un-Holland. The Herr ick 'Dog has colors, which is enough to terr i fy any Holland resident, and the Phelps one is black, which no one unders tands . Look at em for a while, wander around each, check out the different angles and perspect ives and then way whether you like it or not. Don't make a decision based on the fact

that 4<It don't look like ar t to m e . "

WTHS. The Hope radio station, 89.9 f.m. Land of eclectic radio programming. You can hear everything f rom rock to classic to funk to oldies to downright idiocy to absolute divinity on our beloved radio station. I t 's a Good Thing because it 's ours and anything tha t ' s ours is a good thing, by God Yeah, right, tell m e another one.

Speaking of God, there 's the religion depar tment . Accused of being Satanic a while back, they welcome any and all callers into their open a r m s . Cept me; when I come calling two or three of them close their doors and hide u n d e r t he i r de sks . R e a l l y , though, the only thing you can ac-cuse them of is being neat dressers and good conversa-tionalists and a bunch of ex-cellent teachers and fine human beings who deserve to be lauded whenever possible. Watch out for Boulton, though. And Kennedy.

Tha t ' s about it for now. Cept for my rommate , Pete . Pe te is very available, having resisted a yea r ' s worth of a t tempts to get him hitched. This year , he ' s gon-na go on a da t e if it kills him, me, and the girl a s well. On this, I a m resolved.

Tha t ' s really it, cuz good old Pe te (a Good Thing, incidental-ly) has been reading over my shoulder and is making some very ugly sounding threa ts , along with probably the res t of the campus . Have a day, and I'll see you around. Maybe.

challenged all who entered his classroom. He expected a grea t deal of his students and the more that one of his s tudents respond-ed, the more Professor Petrovich would challenge him or her . To many students, it seemed like they could never please this m a n with a most unMichiganian ac-cent—but he took note of every point made , every a rgumen t thought. To Professor Petrovich, the study of histofy w a s not to be a lesson in memorizing names , dates, places, bat t les , but r a the r should and must be an exercise in critical thinking. Concepts and ideas were pa ramoun t in his classroom. Many w a s the t ime that Professor Pet rovich insisted that his students set their pens and notebooks down and simply c o n c e n t r a t e on a c e r t a i n historical event or concept. He didn't want us to l ea rn a da te that we would forget a f t e r final exam week; he wanted us to s t re tch o u r m i n d s , t o l e a v e t h e classroom and put ourself on a differnet continent a t a different t ime.

As an educator and coor-dinator of many ex t remely fine foreign study tours, Mike was a perfectionist, working tirelessly in pursui t of his lofty vision. His study p rog rams abroad were masterpieces .

Finally, as a fr iend, Mike Petrovich was also something very special. He was a loyal and sincere friend, with a hea r t of gold. He did so very much for me, and asked for nothing in return. He was a friend to all his students, teaching in a very per-sonal manner—often conducting classes in the kletz or in the liv-ing room of his home. He opened himself up to everyone and had to very much to offer .

Orientation Packed with Events A host of activit ies awaits the

new students during Orientation Weekend.

Necessities are combined with many helpful and fun events to give new students an overview of what life is like at Hope.

Among the highlights of Orien-tation are :

Picnic in the Pinegrove. This annual event allows all new students and their families to meet 'and eat (with) other new students and their families. Held from 5:00 to 6:30 p .m. on Satur-day in the Pine Grove it f ea tures a traditional picnic meal of burgers and dogs with plenty of salad and juice.

P layfa i r ; 9:30 p.m., Saturday, Dow Center Gym. Stated as t4an absolute mus t for All New Students ," P layfa i r is an in-teresting event which forces students to meet other s tudents in a fun filled hour (or so) of games and activities. In its se-cond year , P layfa i r was a big success at last yea r ' s Orientation and the high point of it for many students.

Topical Discussions. Varied in nature, these discussions let new students talk to old students and member s of the Hope faculty and staff to get a pret ty good idea of what to expect here. P a r e n t s are given their own sessions to clue them in on various aspects of Hope.

Opening Banquet ; 6 p.m., Sun-day, Phelps Dining Hall. This an-nual event gives the new students some of the best food they ' re like-ly to ever have in Phelps.

D.R.I.N.K; 9:30 p.m., Sunday, the Kletz (basement of DeWitt) . In its second year D.R.I .N.K. is a combination non-alcoholic bar and discussion session about alcohol. Done in a lively manner , it involves s tudents in an in-formational overview of some of the fac ts of drinking. The bar which complements the session is not to be missed (nor a r e the bar tenders ) .

Liberal Arts Educa t ion at Hope College and You; 1 p .m. , Monday, Dimnent Chapel. This new, requi red session gives students a chance to hear—firs t h a n d - f rom Hope Pres iden t Gordon Van Wylen what Hope College is all about.

Activities F a i r ; 7 p.m.-9 p.m., Monday. This is a must for all students who want to become in-volved in any of the m a n y ac-tivities a t Hope. Almost every group, f rom the Greeks to the anchor to the Ski Club is represented here . Held on the DeWitt Pa t io (or in Phe lps if ra in) , each organization is ready and eager to enlighten anyone and everyone about what they do and how you can become involv-ed.

All-College Dance. Sponsored by the Social Activities Commit-tee, this annual event is f ree and features a live band (something of a rar i ty at dances here) . Old and new students are invited and encouraged to attend, mingling for the first t ime (but probably not the last) . Held in Phelps, it begins at 9 p.m. on Monday.

Opening Convocation; 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, Dimnent Chapel. An annual event at colleges across the country, the convoca-tion officially opens the school year (even though students have suffered through a full day of classes a l ready) . The featured speaker this year is Manford Byrd, super in tendent of the Chicago public schools sys tem.

Ice Cream Social; 8:30 p.m., Tuesday. Immediate ly following the opening convocation, this is a f r e e even t held in P h e l p s Cafeteria .

Among that pile of things to do, new students also have to get set-tled into their room, get their I.D. picture taken (in either the Haworth or Otte rooms in Phelps at most t imes) , buy their books, eat, sleep, etc.

All in all, Orientation does a pretty good job of getting the new students running at a good pace for the semester .

Classes Begin Tuesday ! Orientation for new Hope

students begins today as Hope begins its 125th academic year (see related article).

C l a s s e s s t a r t T u e s d a y , September 2.

A slight enrollment decrease is being projected by college of-ficials. The number of students expected to study at Hope this year is projected to be 2,480 com-pared to 2,522 in 1985-86, ac-c o r d i n g to R e g i s t r a r J o n Huisken. This count includes part-t ime students and those stu-dying in off-campus programs.

The modest decrease in enroll-ment is attributed to last year ' s unusua l ly l a r g e g r a d u a t i n g class, said Huisken. The admis-sions goal for new students was

achieved as the f reshman class is expected to number approx-imately 580 students.

The annual Fall Convocation will formally open the school year on Tuesday, September 2 at 7:30 p.m. in Dimnent.

The speaker will be Manford Byrd, the superintendent of Chicago public schools, the na-tion's second largest school system. Byrd has held his pre-sent post since 1985. He is a graduate of Central College in Pella, Iowa and holds a mas te r ' s degree from Atlanta University and a Ph.D. f rom Northwestern University. He is the author of "The Widening World of the P r i n c i p a l s h i p " , ^ E d u c a t i n g Black Youth in the 4So-Called'

White E s t a b l i s h m e n t , " and "Testing Under Fire: Chicago's P rog ram."

The Board of Trustees will con-fer an honorary Doctor of Letters degree upon Byrd and a Doctor of Laws degree upon L. Homer Surbeck, a ret ired attorney and a member of the Reformed Church in Amer ica f rom Ather ton, California.

A 1927 magna cum laude Yale Law School graduate, Surbeck served as the law secretary to Chief Just ice William Howard Taft shortly a f te r graduation and w a s a m e m b e r w i t h t h e distinguished New York City law firm of Hughes, Hubbard, and Reed for the rest of his career .

America 's top liberal a r t s col-leges must invest a total of one billion dollars above current commitments if they are to maintain and enhance their pre-sent strong position in basic science," said a recent study en-titled "Maintaining America 's Productivity: The Necessity of the Liberal Arts Colleges."

Commissioned by 50 of the na-tion's leading pr ivate liberal arts colleges," including Hope, the study cited the need for these in-stitutions to band together to "choreograph our representation in Washington and launch a more systematic fund-raising effort with foundations, corporations, and the federal government ," said S. Freder ick Starr , presi-dent of Oberlin College where the study was assembled.

Sam Carr ie r , the repor t ' s author, noted that although the number of undergraduates in the basic sciences a re declining na-tionally, they have increased at the 50 liberal a r t s colleges. Yet, with their science numbers on the rise, these colleges have not received proportionate funding from the federal government and other sources, Carr ie r said.

The report suggested that one billion dollars needs to be spent on facul ty suppor t and in-s t r u m e n t a t i o n i m p r o v e m e n t over the next ten years .

"The 1985 report has been widely cited in influential policy making circles and has suc-cessful ly sensi t ized na t iona l science policy make r s to the crucial role that these colleges play in the nation's science and technology e n t e r p r i s e , " said Brink. "Whereas the 1985 con-ference focused on numbers of science students and graduates , this year ' s conference emphasiz-ed the more difficult to assess question of quality of the science graduates. Pre l iminary da ta in-dicates that several of the col-leges studied s tand fully on par with leading research univer-sities and in some instances ex-ceed them in the quality of science g radua tes , " he added.

This yea r ' s study also found that educating women at these institutions is increasing. It also reported that "student-faculty research is the ha l lmark of these coUeges."

The 50 colleges selected for this study were determined on the basis of National Science Foun-dat ion g r a n t s , s t u d e n t tes t scores, and the number of doc-torates awarded to science alum-ni.

Faculty/Staff News Science Profs Get $ Staff Shuffling Hope in Peterson's

Five Hope natural science divi-sion professors were awarded grants f rom the National Science Foundation to support their teaching and research.

The grants totaling $57,133 were for the work of Dr. Pe ter Gonthier, assistant professor of p h y s i c s ; D r . C h r i s t o p h e r Barney, assistant professor of biology; Dr. Ed Hansen, assis-tant professor of geology; Dr. Michael Silver, assitant pro-fessor of chemistry; and Dr. Pe te r Jolivette, associate pro-fessor of physics.

A $27,820 grant was awarded to Dr. Gonthier in support of his research on "Probing Heavy Ion Reactions with Light Charged Par t ic le Emiss ion." In this on-going research through the sum-mer and academic year , he will be studying the correlation bet-ween two part icles in a nuclear collision with the intent of gain-ing a better understanding of the behavior of nuc lear energy (heat) and the forces that govern that process.

His work has included the employment of three student r e s e a r c h e r s and a visit to Michigan State University for equipment utilization. Dr. Gon-thier has been a member of the Hope faculty since 1983 and holds his bache lor ' s and doctoral d e g r e e s f r o m T e x a s A&M University.

Dr. Barney has been awarded a $8,870 instrumentation grant for teaching purposes toward the acquisition of a computerized da ta acquisition system. An IBM personl computer will be used for physiological analysis of such things as blood pressure, heart beat, body temperature , and metabolic ra tes .

The new equipment will be us-ed in i n t r o d u c t o r y biology courses and human physiology. According to Barney, this kind of equipment is often found in ma-jor research laboratories.

Having joined the Hope faculty in 1980, Dr. Barney is a graduate of Wright State University and earned his doctorate f rom In-diana University.

A $19,543 joint grant directed by Dr. Silver has been awarded to renovate and computerize the college's x-ray equipment for c l a s s room e m p h a s i s in the geology, chemistry, and physics depar tments . The x-ray equip-ment will be used in geology primari ly for mineral identifica-tion and chemical analysis of rocks through fluorescents and a p o w d e r d l f f r a c t o m e t e r ; in chemistry for single crystal lat-tice x-ray photography which gives an indirect representation of a crystal s t ructure; and in physics for dealing with the na ture of solids in measur ing the distance between the planes of atoms.

An appointment to the ad-vancement staff at Hope and a re-assignment of responsibilities for a current staff member have been announced by Robe r t DeYoung, vice president for col-lege advancement.

Kathleen Karle has been ap-pointed assistant director of col-lege advancement with pr imary responsibility for the class agent and reunion giving programs of the college's annual alumni fund.

David Van Dyke has been pro-moted to assistant director of col-lege advancement with respon-sibilities for alumni activities.

Kar le h a s been a s s i s t an t development manager for an-nual giving at Saint Mary ' s Hospital in Grand Rapids since 1982. She previously served as director of development for the Michigan Eas te r Seal Society in Grand Rapids. SHe is a 1975 graduate of Hope where she ma-j o r e d in p s y c h o l o g y a n d sociology.

Van Dyke is a 1984 Hope graduate. He has served as a development officer at Hope since last fall, working on the Campaign for Hope.

Kreps Appointed

The appointment of M. Dean Krepps to the physical education faculty and coaching staff at Hope was announced in July by Ray Smith, director of Athletics for men.

Kreps, who will hold the academic rank of visiting in-structor of physical education, recreation, and athletics, will serve as an assistant football coach and coordinate the athletic depar tment ' s student recruit-ment efforts.

He will fill a vacancy left by the return of J im VanderMeer to the faculty of the Holland public schools this fall. VanderMeer will remain on the Hope football coaching staff on a part- t ime basis.

K r e p s will r e p l a c e Ross Nykamp on the football staff and will coach the l inebackers . Nykamp served as part- t ime coach during 1985.

An Illinois native, Kreps has served as a graduate assistant football coach at the University of Illinois the last two years . He was an assistant offensive line coach, was involved in the scout ing of opponents , and directed on-campus recruit ing activities, j

He is a graduate of Monmouth College in Illinois where he played football four yea r s and was captain his senior year . This spring he received the mas te r of science degree in physical educa-tion and athletic administration from the University of Illinois.

Hope has been selected for in-clusion in the fifth edition of "Pe te r son ' s Competitive Col-leges."

The 315 colleges and univer-sities listed in the new guide represent roughly 17 percent of higher education institutions in the country with the most challenging admissions situa-tions, according to the publisher.

"Peterson 's Competitive Col-leges" presents comparat ive data on colleges that consistently have more undergraduate ap-pl icants with above-average capabilities than they can ac-

cept. The cri teria used to decide whether or not a college is " c o m p e t i t i v e " a r e t h e application-to-acceptance ratio, the percentage of f reshmen who scored 600 or over on both SAT math and verbal exams, the percentage of f reshmen who had a composite score of 26 or over on the ACT, the percentage of freshmen who scored over the national average on the respec-tive tests, and teh percentages coming from the top half and the top tenth of their high school class.

Von Iwoorden Lectured

Hope mathemat ics professor John Van Iwaarden participated as the principle lecturer in a one week short course for college teachers hosted by the depart-ment of mathemat ical sciences of Messiah College in Grantham, Pa . early this summer .

The subject of the symposium was Numerical Methods in Dif-ferential Equations on whcih Van Iwaarden presented a series of lectures. The basis of the series was the developmental work he has done in this emerging area and which is published in the tex-tbook "Elementary Differential E q u a t i o n s wi th N u m e r i c a l T e c h n i q u e s " w h i c h V a n Iwaarden authored for Harcourt Brace Jovanovich Publishing Company.

T h e l e c t u r e s w e r e sup-p l e m e n t e d w i t h c o m p u t e r laboratory work on the VAX m a i n f r a m e a n d A p p l e microcomputer.

Fourteen college mathemat ics and computer science teachers from 11 colleges in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Tennessee participated.

Van Iwaarden has been a member of the Hope faculty since 1961 and for the past four years has been chairperson of the mathemat ics depar tment .

Murray Elected

Diane Murray, a l ibrarian and lecturer in l ibrary science at Hope, has been elected to a two-year term as a member-at- large in the academic and research division of the Michigan Library Association (MLA).

A member of the Hope faculty since 1977, Murray has been a member of the MLA since 1968. In 1976-77, she held the post of s e c r e t a r y - t r e a s u r e r for the academic and research division, and in 1980, she was chairperson for the technical services caucus of the MLA.

Murray is a 1964 graduate of Hope and earned a mas te r of science in l ibrary science from Western Michigan University and a mas te r of management degree f rom Aquinas College.

Jolivette Awarded

Peter Jolivette, associate pro-fessor of physics, has been awarded a three year $81,140 grant by the National Science Foundation for his work entitled "Charge Symmetry Breaking and Other Immediate Energy Nuclear Physics Exper iments ."

Jolivette's experimentation is aimed at finding the definition of the nuclear force in an atom. The exper imenta l work for this reserach will take place at the In-d iana Un ive r s i t y Cyclo t ron Facility (IUCF) in Bloomington, Indiana. While there, Jolivette will scatter an a tom's neutrons and protons. In doing so, he will try to determine whether part of the nuclear force depends upon the electrical charge of the par-ticles.

"The nuclear force binds pro-tons and neutrons together in the nucleus of the a tom," Jolivette said. " I t is the strongest force in nature and the least understood. A better understanding of this force is needed to help answer questions as diverse as how does the sun work, what happened in the early stages of the universe, and how can we get unlimited energy from nuclear fission. And, charge symmetry may be a property of nuclear forces."

Data ana lys i s and m a n y elements of preparat ion will be conducted at Hope. Several Hope students will be involved in the research analysis, data-taking, and preparation. According to Jolivette, they have already made very important contribu-tions to the preparat ion of the ex-periment by helping in many areas of the construction and testing process and showing good insight into the concepts of the experiments.

The charge symmetry break-ing experiment at the IUCF is a collaboration between the IUCF, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Hope.

Gonzales Promoted The appointment of Alfredo

Gonzales as assistant dean of multicultural life has been an-nounced by President Gordon Van Wylen and Philip Beal, dean for student development.

This appointment is an under-taking by the college to increase the number of minority students at Hope and to strengthen the multicultural life at the college.

"We believe that increasing the number of minority students and enhancing their involvement in college life will provide an enriching experience for all our students and better prepare them to live and serve in a m u l t i c u l t u r a l socie ty a f t e r graduation," said Van Wylen.

In his new responsibilities, Gonzales will be a member of the student affairs staff. He will also work with the admissions office in recruiting minority students and develop contacts with high schools and other organizations in the local area as well as visiting churches and alumni in West Michigan and across the country. ^

Gonzales joined the Hope staff in 1979 as the director of the col-lege's Upward Bound program, and since 1984 has also served as director of minority affairs.

As the Upward Bound director, Gonzales has an outstanding record. Under his leadership, the program achieved a near-perfect 98 percent success rate in helping direct its students through high school and on to a college career.

With his new responsibilities, he will continue to serve as a consul-tant to the college's Upward Bound program.

Active in the community, Gon-zales is a member of the board of directors for Holland Community Hospital where he serves as chair of the long-range planning committee. He is also vice presi-dent for the Holland Area Arts Council.

Gonzales g r a d u a t e d f rom Grand Valley State College and earned a master of social work degree from the University of Michigan.

In a related matter, Elizabeth Colburn has been promoted to the position of associate director of the Upward Bound program at Hope.

An English teacher with Up-ward Bound since 1982, Colburn is presently academic coor-dinator for the program. In her new position, she will be respon-sible for planning and implemen-ting both the academic year and summer components.

"We are very fortunate to have someone of Liz's quality to assume this very critical posi-tion," said Gonzales. "Liz will give this program the leadership it requires to serve the educa-tional needs of area students."

Colburn is a graduate of Miami, Ohio University and is presently enrolled as a graduate student at Western Michigan University.

Mayer at DePree

• : •j

Dr. Neal Sobania, the director of international education at Hope, returning from Japan brought with him a new five year agreement to continue the mter-national exchange program bet^ ween Hope and Meiji GauKin University of Tokyo.

Since 1965, Hope and MGU have established a sister schoo relationship. In that year MGU started sending Us stud&ats to Hope, but it wasn't until 1980 that students from Hope b e c a m e a part of the two-way exchange

program. There are over 500 alums of the Hope-MGU pro-gram-

The major emphasis of the new agreement will be to make a commitment to explore and im-plement, when feasible, op-portunities for exchanges of faculty and students through other programs, according to Sobania.

A l l - a l u m i n u m s c u l p t u r e s , decorated in checkerboards and fluorescent stripes, will fill the gallery of the DePree Art Center with a playful mood, but ac-cording to their creator Bill Mayer, associate professor of art, his works have a more serious edge, a sudden warning.

M a y e r ' s s abba t i ca l show, "Natural Forces," will open this year 's schedule of exhibitions on Hope's campus. Opening on Saturday, September 6, with a formal reception from 7-9 p.m., the show will close on Sunday, October 12.

A total of 11 pieces, nine brand new, will comprise the show. The polyurethane-coated and polish-ed aluminum works "often have to do with 20th century happen-ings that are precarious modern issues," Mayer stated.

"The pieces have developed an edge of life-and-death," he con-tinued. "Most have a surreal quality to them, and some are more figurative than the works that I 've previously done.These pieces have translations that are more direct, their interpreta-tions have beomce a little less vague. I wanted to get away from my usual cooler designs."

With such names as "The Fall of Carthage," "Dead Man's Dance," and "Snake Charm, Mayer admitted that even the ti-tle of his show has a sardonic

message, a throwback to the threats of nuclear war.

For example, the cool gray front exterior of "Dead Man's Dance," a piece on the effects of nuclear war, turns hot as the red fluorescent back casts a glare on the white gallery wall.

In the Holland community, Mayer is known for his pieces "Perro DelSol" which adorns the lawn in front of the Herrick Public Library, "Col Tempo" which is situated at the Howard Miller headquarters in Zeeland, and "Para t r ax i s " at the Herman Miller seating plant in Holland. On the Hope campus, "Sun Dog" sits out by Phelps Hall.

A member of the Hope faculty since 1978, Mayer is a graduate of the University of Minnesota and earned a master ' s of fine arts degree from Pennsylvania State University.

Mayer notes that the show is due in part to the generosity of Bell and Howell, Inc. of Zeeland which loaned a studio to the sculptor during his sabbatical leave last spring.

Hope junior John Saurer was Mayer's student intern, helping the sculptor with the pieces' finishing work.

Gallery hours are Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sundays from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m.

honored huest for the opening of their new school of international studies. On the occasion of the in-augural event, he presented a gift on behalf of the Hope faculty. Forty-one books by Hope College authors were contributed to the MGU l ibrary. It will be a continu-ing gift as new books a r e publish-ed by the college's faculty.

The Hope exchange s tudents were also present for the new program's inauguration since they traditionally t ravel to J a p a n during the college's May Te rm ( s e e r e l a t e d a r t i c l e ) . T h e J a p a n e s e v i s i t H o p e in September (see related art icle) . While in J apan , Hope s tudents are enrolled in the "Semina r in Social and Economic Issues of C o n t e m p o r a r y J a p a n , " and likewise, the J apanese students study social and economic issues of contemporary America while a t Hope.

" I t takes a Hope and Meiji Gaukin student who is a bit more open-minded, a bit more adven-

t u r e s o m e to m a k e the ex-change ," said Sobania. "When American s tudents think of stu-dying abroad, Europe is usually their first thought. Customs a r e m o r e f a m i l i a r t h e r e . B u t students t ravell ing to J a p a n must be willing to tackle the un-f a m i l i a r — t h e l a n g u a g e , the culture. The s a m e is t rue for the J apanese when they visit here . But the language bar r i e r has a l w a y s b e e n t h e m a j o r d rawback . "

The faculty exchanges a r e the most prominent addition in the new agreement . MGU professors will be able to t ravel to Hope in the near fu ture , but Hope pro-fessors won't have their f irst serious opportunity to t ravel to J a p a n until 1990 since MGU's new school of in te rna t iona l studies will c rea te some restric-tions until it gets settled. Once both faculties a r e finally in a two-way exchange, it is hoped that there can be sabbat ica ls or leave of absences for the faculty f rom

Key Campaign Raises $ 1,800

Although the "Key to Educa-t ion" campaign last spring did not ra i se the needed $2,800 it was a success.

The student campaign , design-ed to ra ise money to sponsor a black South Afr ican at a South African university, saw s tudents donating their key deposit money towards this goal.

The total ra i sed f rom this in-novative drive was $1,871.90, well over half the money needed. The rest of the money, however, will have to be ra ised by the end of this semester , according to Neal Sobania, Internat ional Educa-tion Director.

The South Afr ican which Hope s tudents a re sponsoring—both the faculty and Administrat ion a re each sponsoring an in-dividual also—is Miss Sibongile Elizabeth Gamede .

Faculty/Staff News Taylor & Silver Get Grants DeYoung & Rouze Get Grants

The P e t r o l e u m R e s e a r c h Fund, admin is te red by the American Chemical Society, presented two research grants to Hope chemistry professors early last summer.

Dr. Stephen Taylor was award-ed a $20,000 grant to provide sup-port for undergraduate students who will investigate the way epoxides cyclize to form ring compounds.

Another $20,000 grant will sup-port Dr. Michael Silver and undergraduate students who will investigate a new class of organometallic molecules and their ability to act as catalysts for useful chemical reactions.

In Dr. Taylor's work, the pro-cess of epoxide cyclization is im-portant in several biological pathways, including biosynthesis of cholesterol.

"At one time, enzymes were thought to be solely responsible for the amazingly selective way epoxides underwent cyclization. However, it is now recognized that some of the selectivity results from the inherent struc-ture built into the organic moelecule i t se l f , " said Dr. Taylor. "This research will help determine what organic struc-tural features promote epoxide cyclization."

There have been three Hope students working on the project: juniors Curt Blankespoor and Doug Motry and senior Steven Mork.

Dr. Taylor, an associate pro-fessor, is a graduate of Pasadena College and holds his doctorate from the University of Nevada, Reno. He joined the Hope faculty in 1985.

In Dr. S i lver ' s r e s e a r c h , o r g a n o m e t a l l i c m o l e c u l e s (molecules con ta in ing both o r g a n i c c a r b o n , h y d r o g e n fragments, and metal atoms) play a large par t in the catalytic transformation of start ing com-pounds, such as carbon monox-ide and hydrogen gas, into useful chemicals.

"However, carbon dioxide gas, a potentially abundant start ing m a t e r i a l found in the at-mosphere, has resisted interac-t i n g w i t h o r g a n o m e t a l l i c molecules to t ransform into a useful c h e m i c a l , " said Dr. Silver.

"This research group is at-tempting to prepare some new compounds containing zirconium m e t a l a t o m s a n d o r g a n i c f ragments known as highly methylated allyls. These may prove u s e f u l in p r o m o t i n g molecules like carbon dioxide to undergo des i red t r a n s f o m a -tions," he added.

Five Hope students have been working on this project: seniors Paul Van Dort and Erlund Lar-son, juniors John Lakanen and Dan O'Neill, and sophomore Lori Pederson.

Dr. Silver, an assistant pro-

fessor, graduated from Fairleigh Dickinson University and earned the master ' s degree and doc-torate from Cornell University. He joined the Hope faculty in 1983.

$10,000 for Science The Amoco Foundation of

Chicago has awarded a $10,000 grant to Hope in support of the sciences and mathematics.

According to Dr. Irwin Brink, dean of the natural sciences, the grant will be directed to support the research of new faculty m e m b e r s in t h e p h y s i c s , chemistry, and biology depart-ments, as well as provide funds for equipment purchases and stu-dent s t ipends for s u m m e r research.

This is the second year Hope has received a $10,000 grant from Amoco. Last year, the grant was designated for the research of Dr. Paul DeYoung, assistant pro-fessor of physics, and Dr. Paul Sadek, assistant professor of chemistry. Computer graphic equipment was also purchased last year under the grant for the project Dr. Pe te r Jolivette, associate professor of physics, was instituting entitled "The Use of C o m p u t e r G r a p h i c s in Undergraduate Chemistry and Physics Curriculum."

"Our renewed support is con-sistent with our belief that Hope College is providing outstanding leadership and educational pro-grams," said Donald Schroeter, executive director of the Amoco Foundation.

Food Changes Western Food Enterprises at

Hope has announced recent management changes. Steve Renz, formerly food service director at Hope, has been pro-moted to Senior Operations Director in charge of accounts in Western Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin. Steve and his family will continue to reside in Holland.

Chuch Melchiori has been pro-moted to food service director. He has worked at Hope since April. He was formerly in management at the St. Clair Inn in St . C l a i r , M i c h i g a n . H e graduated from Grand Valley State College with a degree in hospitality management . Chuck, his wife Jan , and one child will be moving to Holland in September.

Russ Turecky has been hired as service manager and assis-tant catering manager . Russ, who also came from manage-ment at the St. Clair Inn, resides in Holland.

Don Hershey has been hired as food production manager . Don, formerly with a res taurant chain in Pennsylvania, is a graduate of t h e C u l i n a r y I n s t i t u t e of America. He, his wife Peggy, and one child reside in Holland.

The National Science Founda-tion has awarded two Hope physics p rofessors research grants totalling $212,350.

The grants, for two different research projects, will provide funds for equipment, faculty salaries, and student stipends.

These experiments are a part of the physics department 's "Learning Through Research" p rogram, according to Dr. J ames Van Putten, Jr . , chair of the physics department.

Dr. Paul DeYoung was award-ed an $84,000 grant for a study en-titled: "Light Part icle Emission in Heavy Ion Reactions." Under this grant, DeYoung and his s t u d e n t s will p e r f o r m ex-periments at Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois. The ex-periments will examine the fun-damental characteristics of the interactions of oxygen nucleii on a l u m i n u m n u c l e i i . T h e undergraduate students will par-ticipate fully in the design and running of the experiments as well as the analysis of the results at Hope on the physics depart-ment 's VAX computer. DeYoung is an assistant professor of physics. He graduated from Hope in 1977 and earned his doc-torate from the University of Notre Dame in 1982.

Dr. Ned Rouze was awarded a $128,350 grant for his research project entitled: "Studies of A t o m i c C o l l i s i o n s a t In-termediate Velocities." Under the grant, Rouze will install a new laboratory for work in the field of atomic physics. The new laboratory will enable Rouze to determine, in detail, exactly how a proton captures an electron to become a neutral hydrogen atom. This information is impor-

tant both fundamentally and for the understanding of fusion reac-tions and the upper atmosphere. The equipment consists of a low energy accelerator, a collision chamber, and a spectrometer to measure the spectrum of the light emitted during the pro-cess.Rouze joined the Hope faculty in 1985 as an assistant p r o f e s s o r of p h y s i c s . He graduated from Hastings College and earned his doctorate from the University of Washington in 1982.

With the receipt of these grants, Hope now has more physics faculty members holding National Science Foundation research grants than any other four year liberal arts college in t h e c o u n t r y . T h e s t r o n g u n d e r g r a d u a t e r e s e a r -chprogram has been made possi-ble by grants such as these that provide equipment and support n e c e s s a r y for f u n d a m e n t a l research.

McCombs Displayed

Bruce McCombs, associate professor of a r t at Hope, recently had his work included in the following exhibitions: Architec-ture and Urban Influences, the Minnesota Museum of Art, St. Paul ; 1st International Print Ex-hibition, Somertown Gallery, Somers, N.Y.; Thirteenth Na-tional Print Exhibition, Hunter-don Art Center, Clinton, N.J.; Festival '86, The Grand Rapids Art Museum; and The Society of American Graphic Artists An-nual Exhibition, Lever House, New York City.

HOPE COLLEGE ANCHOR August 30, 1986

You Can't Tell a Bookstore by its Cover One institution that no one can

avoid on the return to campus in the fall is the bookstore.

Not only can you not avoid go-ing in, but you can't avoid lightening your wallet (or purse) before coming out.

Now, when you get to be an up-perclassperson, you start to learn a few tricks, like shopping early to get the most used books and waiting until a book is ac-tually assigned by the professor before buying Is (especially if

there are more than 10 books on the booklist), but, in general, we all have to face the music.

The anchor decided to pay a visit to our own Hope-Geneva Bookstore and ask the manager , Mark Cook, a few questions. The results are as follows:

anchor : What does the Geneva in Hope-Geneva Bookstore stand for?

Cook: The name is derived from the Geneva Scholarship Fund. This fund was established

by an anonymous donor who In-vested in the original DeWitt Center bookstore (In 1971) and again the current facility whclh was part of the 1982 renovation and expansion of the DeWitt Center. This donation "capitaliz-ed" part of the fixtures and In-ventory of the store and the pro-ceeds from that Investment go in-to a scholarship fund for foreign students which Is administered by the Office of International Education. I believe that fund is

c u r r e n t l y s u p p o r t i n g s ix students, primarily from third world countries.

Cook: No. That accounts for about half. The rest goes to pur-chase additional Inventory, or if there Is anything left over, the college's general operating fund.

money so the effect would be negligible. Also, the bookstore Is one place on campus where the students pay the actual cots for books and supplies as opposed to an average amount as In the case of credit hours and food service where some students subsidize others.

anchor: Books sure seem ex-p e n s i v e . I c a n ' t b e l i e v e somebody isn't making big bucks somewhere.

Cook: There a re a few people out there making some "big bucks" but not many. If you are a publisher or an author with a very popular textbook, especial-ly at the Introductory level, you're probably doing pretty well. I t ' s like the record in-dustry; Pr ince and Madonna are raking It In, but the local record store Isn't getting fat and neither are most classical musicians.

anchor: Is there anything the bookstore can do about the price of books?

Cook: Used books. That ' s about the only leverage we have in te rms of price shopping. Besides conducting an extensive on-campus buy, we have become very aggressive In trying to pur-chase used books from the na-tional used book wholesalers. It seems that students want more each semester (which mirrors the na t ion -wide t r e n d ) , so sometimes It Is hard to get popular textbooks because all the stores want them. The new com-puter and textbook software we purchased last year has allowed us to generate more searches to the used book companies so our used book stock Is at an all-time high.

anchor: It seems that every time I want to buy or sell a used book, it has just gone into a new edition. Most of the time they just change a few words and raise the price.

Cook: THat Is certainly a com-monly held view and has some truth to it. It suppose to be fair to the publisher I would have to ad-mit that new book sales do drop every year that the same edition is in print and neither the author or publisher makes anything on used copies. Hopefully though, the primary motivation for a new edition is substantive changes in the text itself.

anchor: Last semester my roommate said he couldn't get four of his books because the bookstore had run out. Shouldn't you order enough books for everyone in the class?

Cook: Our ideal situation would be to have one book for every student who wanted one and no books left over. Un-fortunately we know we won't achieve that perfection so we usually try to over order a bit, knowing we'll probably have some extras left. However, lef-tover l)ooks are expensive to return due to shipping costs and returns penalties so we base our orders on a reasonable con-tingency not on the maximum that could ever possibly enroll for a class. That means if the enrollment jumps substantially or a new course section is opened at the last minute, it is possible that we could run out.

Tuition Program Announced

the Anchor Files Concern over the rising cost of

a college education has become a legitimate worry for parents of college-bound students. Hearing as t ronomica l f igures tossed about in inflationary fashion could put a scare into any bank-ing account. Those figures say a modest six-and-a-half percent in-flation ra te could raise tuition for four years at a moderately pric-ed private college to over $60,000 by 1999.

But Hope has a solution for its alumni and friends in the form of a newly instituted prepayment program.

The Hope College Alumni-Friends Tuition Program will enable alumni and friends of the college to make a prepayment toward four years of tuition at a substantial discount. Organized through Prudential-Bache in-vestment firm, Forbes Magazine calls the new program "the most innovative development in col-lege tuition financing since the G.I. Bill."

The investing family will be able to pay a lump sum to Hope for the student 's future educa-tion. The college will then assure a four-year education, up to 126 credit hours. For example, a $10,395 tuition investment today, for a child entering college in the year 2000, will pay for four years to tuition worth an estimated $86,674 in the years of 2000 to 2004.

C h i l d r e n , g r a n d c h i l d r e n , dependents, nephews, and neices of Hope alumni and friends are eligible on a first come, first served basis since a limited number of openings will be available for each class, ac-cording to William Anderson, vice president of business and finance.Openings will be reserv-ed for future students up to the age of 17. Another benefit of the program will be pre-enrol lment ' advising offered by the Hope ad-missions staff to the participants

Van Drivers There have been some changes

in the use of college vans which students should be made aware of. They include the following:

(1) There will be a minimum charge of $5.00 made for any van trip to cover the cost of paper work and maintenance of the vehicles.

(2) If you are new on campus and plan to drive a passenger van at any time, please call or write the Physical Plant (x2231), requesting the van reservation information from last year.

(3) If you don't have a Class 3 license (for driving passengers), road tests will be given Tuesday and Wednesday, September 16 and 17, at the Transporation Garage, 176 E. 19th Street, from 9 a.m.-3 p.m.

Please call Mary at x2231 to set up an appointment. You must have passed your written test at the HoUand License Bureau before your road test is taken. At the time of your road test, you also must fill out an insurance form and take computer gas card training.

during their pre-college years. The response to an initial In-

troductory mailing has already been very good, according to Anderson.

"For some time we've been looking for a financial program for people who are willing to make a commitment In advance which will then have a good return on their Investment In the future," said Anderson. "We wanted to do something for those middle-Income families who find It hard to qualify for financial aid. This Is one way we can help provide an extra opportunity for their children to attend Hope."

Since the parents are making an educational decision for their child with this plan, the Alumnl-Frlends Tuition program allows for some flexibility, Anderson said.

If the child decides not to at-tend Hope or does not meet the criteria for enrollment, the col-lege will refund the amount paid Into the program.

A student may transfer to another school after taking the first 30 credit hours at Hope. After that, If the student elects to transfer, Hoep will pay for the next 96 credit hours at 80 percent of Hope's tuition rate or the elected school's, whichever is less. The transfer school must be of the same accreditation level as Hope, and the student must maintain a GPA of at least 2.5 in order to transfer .

• If the student does meet the criteria of Hope, but for some reason Hope can' t enroll the stu-dent, the college will pay the child's tuition for 126 credits at any qualified school at Hope's tuition ra te or the elected school's rate, whichever is less.

Charges and fees for the 1986-87 school year at Hope will be $9,696 for tuition, room, board, and the student activity fee. Hope is the lowest priced college of the 12 schools in the Great L a k e s Col lege A s s o c i a t i o n (GLCA), private liberal ar ts schools of comparable stature.

by Greg Olgers The following weekly column,

The Anchor Flies, Is comprised of excerpts from Anchors of 20, 50, and 90 years ago.

Each entry Is a condensed form of the original article or a d v e r t i s e m e n t . C l a r i t y is sometimes sacrificed in these a b r i d g e d p r e s e n t a t i o n s . However, the author's style and use of diction typify the period of the piece and the flavor of the In-stitution (Hope College).

The Anchor of 90 years ago, published monthly, can best be described as a combination of to-day 's Anchor, Inklings, and Opus. The stories are of family-newsletter quality and convey a sense of the Intimacy of the early Hope—and Holland—communi-ty. In the serious excerpts, the more formal style of the 1880s becomes apparent.

The Anchor of the 1930s pro-vides evidence of a sentimental attachment to and pride In Hope College. The style used Is often f l i p p a n t , with j a r g o n l ike "P rexy" (president) used In headlines. Much is made of the apparently intense yet good-na tu red ha rangu ing of the freshmen ("Frosh") class.

The Anchor of the 1960s is modern In Its approach. The almost naive Innocence of the earlier years Is gone, with much of the paper 's content aimed at criticizing perceived flaws in the operation of the college. Addi-tionally, while there Is still room for humor, the Anchor of twenty years ago more closely follows contemporary journalistic style.

Finally, where possible the Items selected for this column provide glimpses Into the origins of Hope names and personalities. N a m e s such as " K o l l e n , " "Nykerk," and "Dimnent" are used In reference to Individuals, not buildings.

Thanks are extended to Mr. Andrew VanderZee of the Hope College Archives. Without his cooperation the latter two por-tions of this column would have been Impossible to complete.

20 years ago. September 16, 1966.

"This fall 's enrollment Is a record of 1,837 students, up from 1,701 last fall...The Administra-tion has leased the fifth floor of the Warm Friend Hotel and Is h o u s i n g 30 ( m a l e ) up-

(Note: the Warm Friend Hotel is located in downtown Holland on the northeast corner of Eighth and Central. Projected enroll-m e n t fo r 1986-87 is 2,480 students).

50 years ago. September 16, 1936.

PETROVICH, from page 5

Petrovich personi f ied the disciplines spoken of—critical thinking and careful evaluation of the facts. In a somewhat sheltered community and pro-tected campus environment, Dr. Petrovich led me to think critically about Important world Issues. With a vision of a larger world of diverse cultures, he led my fellow classmates and me to think beyond the confines of Holland, Michigan and even beyond America.

I learned rather quickly that Doc (as he was known to many of his students) had limited time

and patience for those who preferred to live life in the slow track or were content to be passive vassals In a classroom of mindless wits. He expressed dis-dain for weak-kneed individuals who quickly joined the ranks of <4nay-sayers , , whenever an obstacle arose over abandoning the status quo.

He often quoted an old p h i l o s o p h e r — w h o s e n a m e escapes me—"I am a human-

nothing human is alien to me." Dr. Petrovich enjoyed being at

center stage. Tm sure that at times this was cause for frustra-tion among colleagues and ad-ministration. Doubt, trivialities, s l o t h f u l n e s s , and f a i n -theartedness were not a part of his nature. Students who could accept him for who he was, what he wanted for them and who were willing to go beyond the minimal requirements were

blessed by his willingness to give of himself.

troducing students and col-leagues to Europe, and he did this with incomparable style. In doing so, he was always hurry-ing, always trying to transform twenty-four hour days into thirty-six hour days, he seemed to want to show his students all of Europe all at once and he very nearly succeeded. In his most recent fif-ty day tour he took them to no less than fifty-nine cities and towns, and he did it in a way that managed, somehow, to preserve Intact the uniqueness of each place he visited.

Mike was an historian, but he was an historian whose training and personality inclined him toward the world of the present. His favorite way of teaching was by taking students to the places where it happened and putting them in touch wit the soil, the stones and the people that shaped the modern world. Every year he would take students to Dubrov-nik and to points East, West, North and South of this touchstone of his Universe. His favorite classroom was a van moving through Yugoslavia or Greece or France or Spain or anywhere.

Mike had fun and his students had fun but at the same time he was engaged in a very serious enterprise. He believed that, for people to really understand the world they live in or Its history, they must first get outside of their own culture and see themselves as others see them. Believing this, Mike carved for himself a special role as the unof-ficial liaison between Hope Col-lege and the people and culture of Yugoslavia in particular and of the Mediterranean area In general.

Mike p l a y e d t h i s r o l e marvelously well and one of the main reasons he did It so well was that he never lost touch with the Serbian community from which he had come. Over and beyond his frequent visits, to Yugoslavia he remained part of the Serbian community In Chicago where he. had good friends and deep roots.

Mike's special contribution here at Hope grew In part from these ties he had to another culture, to another community to another sort of Christianity. He did not simply blend in with the dominant culture. Rather, he took ti for granted that his col-, lege like the nation to which it belongs ius enriched by diversi-ty. He was right to do so.

Let me conclude with just a brief word about the personal side pf Mike's life. At fifty-three Mike was one of the oldest members of the history depart-ment, but this year he was to become a father for the first time. He and Vesna were over-joyed and all of us in the depart-ment were delighted for them both. This is a bittersweet time and our hearts go out to Vesna who is at one and the same time both the wife of a colleague and friend, and a valued colleague herself.

Petrovich left behind his wife Vesna, a French professor here at Hope, who is expecting their first child in a few months.

Football Team Practicing The Hope football team began

practice Monday, August 25 in preparation for the college's 74th season.

Coach Ray Smith had over 100 players report for practice.

The annual orange-and-blue intra-squad sc r immage will be held Saturday, September 6 on the team's pract ice field.

The season opener will be Saturday, September 13 when the Flying Dutchmen entertain Wit-tenberg University of Ohio in the annual Community Day game Holland Municipal Stadium.

The Flying Dutchmen face a challenging schedule with a s t r o n g c o r e of r e t u r n i n g veterans, including 13 s ta r te rs from last year ' s team.

"A year ago we needed to replace 18 of 22 s tar ters and many of their backups," observ-ed coach Ray Smith. "This year we have a solid group of return-ing s tar ters as well as many other players who gained con-siderable experience last fal l ."

The 1985 Flying Dutchmen were MIAA contenders and end-ed with an overall 5-3-1 record, the 14th winning campaign in 16 years under Smith.

The Dutchmen return their en-tire starting offensive backfield, led by all-MIAA junior tailback Todd Stewart.

Senior q u a r t e r b a c k Chr i s Mendels ranked among the na-tion's top NCAA Division III passers last fall. Mendels ended with a NCAA efficiency rating of 122.8 (100.0 considered average) as he completed 111 of 192 passes f o r 1 , 2 6 3 y a r d s a n d 13 touchdowns. He was voted to the all-MIAA second team.

Senior fullback Ken Trumble of M u s k e g o n s c o r e d n i n e touchdowns last fall. He carried the football a team-high 149 times for 631 yards. Stewart followed with 147 carr ies for 708 yards and caught 26 passes for 267 yards.

The fourth veteran in the offen-sive backfield is senior wingback

Barry Immink. Returning offensive linemen

include juniors end Bill Vander-bilt and tackle Chad Campbell and senior guard Tim Chase.

Vanderbilt, a second team all-MIAA selection and a starting forward on the Hope basketball squad, led the team in pass receiving last year with 30 cat-ches for 372 yards and five touchdowns. In two seasons he

has 55 receptions. Last year he and Trumble each earned con-ference (MIAA) Player-of-the-Week honors.

Six defensive s tar ters return from an '85 team that ranked sixth in NCAA Division III in total defense. The Dutchmen allowed just 188 yards a game last fall, including only 54 yrads a contes t ru sh ing . Opponents s c o r e d j u s t f i v e r u s h i n g touchdowns. But the heart of the '85 defense is gone with the graduat ion of al l-conference linemen Dirk VerMeulen, Blaine Newhouse, and Tim Hansen.

Returning line veterans in-clude end Dave Bolhuis, a senior, and tackle Dan Stid, also a senior. Back at linbacker is junior Don Dahlquist while retur-ning in the defensive backfield will be sophomore Kevin Bartz, junior Jeff Dawson, and senior Jon Dezelsky.

Senior Ed Conniff handled the bulk of the kicking chores last fall. He made 15 of 18 extra point conversions, two of four field goals, and averaged 32.5 yards per punt.

HOPE COLLEGE AINCHOR August 30. 1986

Herewith and forthwith is a brand spanking new column for everyone and anyone, especially you. greatm huh?

It 's purpose? Well, just about anything and everything that we'd wanna do. But especially that kind of stuff which just doesn't quite make it to being newsworthy but everyone wants to know anyway.

In other words. Gossip. But we're gonna do much more

than just gossip about little old Hope College and the surroun-ding area. Oh, yeah.

We're gonna talk about any darned thing we feel like, rang-ing from music to movies to books to politics to religion to sports to everything else.

Fun, huh? Could be and should be. But we ' re gonna need your

help on this one. Whi le t h e r e a r e a n c h o r

reporters everywhere listening to everything, we do sometimes miss the little, fun stuff that we want to include in this column (i.e. Gossip).

by Big

Brother Therefore (and herefore, etc.),

we're asking for your tidbits of information and rumor. We don't care what it is or who it's about. We just want it all.

Before we go alarming all you scandal ridden people, however, we'd like to make it clear that we're not gonna print names of any locals—we may even refrain from full initials. Nicknames, though, especially the odd ones are perfectly acceptable and presentable and requestable.

So send in all the dirt you know

about your best friends. Or maybe it 's not the truth but only rumor—send that, too, cuz it's more fun.

And this column is gonna be nothin but fun and excitement cuz we'll print it all (and more).

O.K. Enough of that crap. There are a few rumors flying even now. Not much, granted, but we have to start some time....

Anyone care to guess what the al l - t ime-highest-beyond-bel ief price for a book at the bookstore is? How about $29.35 for a paper-back of somewhere around 300 pages (and not even large size at that)? Yes? Yes! And his book was for a certain history seminar class—and this book only cost three or four bucks last year. Sound outrageous? It was. And it was dead wrong. The actual cost was the same as last year—some brilliant mind in the bookstore, tho, didn't think twice about jacking that price through the roof. Luckily it was caught. Just goes to show ya that you s h o u l d n ' t t a k e t h o s e

PERSONALS Stegs, what a tan!! Ooo la la! Study hard.

Personals cost only five cents! Drop 'em off outside the Anchor office in the Student Offices Area on the first floor of DeWitt on what used to be the corner of 12th and Columbia until they closed the street down and renamed it Van Raatle Commons.

Diane, Can you hang back to see if he looks? Yeah! You're back. One more year—can we make it? Girl Stupid.

Is Sue Langejans really a space alien?

There's gonna be an informa-tional meeting for all of you who are interested in getting involved with the Anchor on Sunday, September 7 at 8 p.m. in our very own office in the Student Office area on the first floor of the DeWitt Center. Be there.

Got some gossip? Send it to Big Brother, care of the Anchor....

BLOOM COUNTY

astronomical prices downstairs DeWitt as Gospel.... Word has it that R.E.M. is gonna be playing at Miller Auditorium in mid October. Nothing official yet, but keep your ears open... And there will definitely be a special concert at the Holland Theater by a very popular and talented local group. Dubbed "Park Aid" it 's gonna be in late October. Stay tuned for more details... While we're on music, anyone care to comment on the persis-tent rumor of a multi-album live set (and-or nonreleased music) from the Boss?... To the FRESHMEN: Rumor has it that there are no lines in Phelps cafeteria. That you go where you want to when you want to and grab as you see fit. It 's a very subtle way of in-troducing you to the dangers of the real world. Don't muck it up or you'll be trampled on by v e t e r a n s of t he s c r a m b l e system... Rumor also has it that the Maas cent* • s gonna be done by mid-Sa l - .viissing you already...

ARE WE READY FOR THIS SCHOOL YEAR!?!?!

Wow! There aren' t any Scott Brown the Most Wonderful Man in the Universe ads in this sec-tion! It must be a blessing from God!

These little buggers cost put a half a dime. Drop em off outside the Anchor office. They're due every Friday by midnight.

SAC Films coming up this weekend include Back to the Future and Diner. Don't miss em!

Yes, Sue Langejans is really a space alien.

A R E WE H A V I N G F U N YET!?!?!?!? !

To all Cohen-Seminar people: As we enter into the valley of death...

Scott: Kick some butt on Con-gress this year, eh?

What this column does is provide some fun and filler for the An-chor. Drop an ad in for only a nickle.

October. Considering it was sup-posed to be in January (LAST Jan.) , it 's about time. But no one really believes it 's ever gonna really get done...last date we had heard for opening was August (as in last week)... People newz: it seems Cosmo-Delta Phi liasons have reached a new peak (or peek, take your pick)—up to their "necks" in love and laughter, you might say...So who is J E T going out with this week?...and just what is one of our contributing editor's real major? And what about minors?... Those people in the English department have finally got their acts together and decided to make sher that everyone's gonna be able to right write (or vice versa). Seems that each and every freshmen is gonna have the priviledge of buying a book on how to write (it 's required for all 113 courses). Seems we coulda used somethin like, that, when we were young, and im-pressionable...

DON'T MISS T H E F I R S T DANCE: Monday night in Phelps Cafeteria.

party party party

To everyone who's not taking the Cohen-seminar: We who are about to die salute you!

Could someone please tell me what the r e a l p u r p o s e fo freshmen is?

The world is my oyster ha ha ha ha ha ha—Frankie's back! Hard Rage Man!

To my wives: Come live with me!

This very ad which you are ready at this very moment has but one purpose in its short but sweet life. It is designed to fill space which could not otherwise have been filled in this very first issue of the Anchor. We hope you ap-preciate its existance because without it there would not have been an Anchor at this time. Let 's give it a nice round of ap-plause shall we?
