Malchman Students do not understand how the Offce of the Dean for Student Affars can help them, sad Luz Martnez-Mranda G. former presdent of Ashdown House, at a meetng of students and admnstrators Tuesday to dscuss recommendatons made by the MT Corporaton Vstng Commttee on Student Affars. "There needs to be some way of gettng more drectly to the students," Martnez-Mranda contnued. The Vstng Commttee suggested, among sx other recommendatons, that the Dean's Offce take "conscous, programmed steps... to mprove the percepton of beng approachable" and to "mprove the qualty of ts contacts wth the students." A program of contnued orentaton s necessary, sad Assocate Dean for Student Affars Hollday C. Hene '67, because materal n the Freshman Handbook and on posters "just washes over the students." "We plan to have each person n the [Dean's] Offce mneet wth 50 or so freshmen" ths fall, sad Dean for Student Affars Shrley M. McBay. Mln By Burt S.

AlLumn g By Jakre TEno MT placed thrd behnd Dartmouth and Prnceton Unverstes n donatons receved last year from bachelor's degree graduates, accordng to Joseph S. Collns, drector of the Alumn Assocaton's alumn fund. The rankng s based on a comparson among MT, Stanford Junor Unversty, and the vy League colleges, Collns sad. Dartrnouth and Prnceton receved gfts from 65 and 55 percent of ther badhelor's graduates respectvely, he added, whle 49 percent of MT's S.B. graduates and 31 percent of ts S.M. and Ph.D. graduates contrbuted to the alumn fund. Both percentages are "very strong ndcatons of broad-based alumn support," Collns remarked. "Alumn support of the nsttute has been strong snce MT opened more than 120 years ago. The alumn fund was started n 1940 and the fund has shown a consstent pattern of recordbreakng both n the number of contrbutors and the gfts receved." The nsttute last year receved $47 mllon n total voluntary support, of whch alumn contrbuted $14.8 mllon, far exceedng the fund's goal of $7.7 mllon, Coll1ns sad. A total of 25,842 alumn made donatons last year, representng a 42 percent overall partcpaton rate, and the average gft was approxmlately $298. Collns would not compare MT's alumn fund wth those of other unverstes because of dfferng rules by whch alumn- gfts "- ve thrd n are reported. The Alumn Assocatone caps any gft from an alumnus at $50,000 n order to "keep the fund's total from beng nfluenced n an nordnate way by unusually large gfts," Collns sad. Alumn support s "typcally two to three tmes" that reported at MT, Collns noted. Collns s confdent the alumn fund wll meet ths year's goal of $8.1 mllon and 26,400 alumn contrbutons, he sad. The alumn fundng year runs from July 1 to June 30, concdng wth the nsttute's fscal year. More than 20,000 alumn had contrbuted a total of $6.86 mllon by md- Aprl, Collns sad, a pace whch s $1.4 mllon and 2000 contrbutons ahead of last year at the same perod. Student partcpaton n February's telethon was "extraordnary," Collns noted. Fve hundred eghty-sx students rased $115,00O, settng student telethon records, and the students contacted more than 9000 alumn, he added.

The Alumn Assocaton begns solctng donatons from a class as soon as t graduates from MT, Collns sad. t normally takes 10 years for 70 percent of the class to make at least one donaton, he contnued. Seventy percent of the Class of 1977 had contrbuted at least once to the alumn fund by last year, he noted, settng a record for partcpaton. MT has earmarked $812,000 for student fnancal ad, $189,000 for student housng, $1.5 mllon for academc departments and professorshps, $1.2 mllon for a "wde spectrum" of other uses, and $2.3 mllon for unrestrcted use, accordng to Collns. The Alumn Assocaton also conducts fve-year campagns requestng alumn to make major donatons.

Mchael McGarry of the Paulst Fathers What connectons are there between prolfe work and femnsm? How carl a man talk about beng a femnst? n much of the lterature have seen, to be a femnst does not requre that one be a woman, but that one support acknowledged femnst prncples. Many clam the followng prncples as femnst, and that a more consstent femnst poston would have to conclude that far from beng opponents, femnsm and prolfe work should be alles. For the followng, am ndebted to such wrters as Jo McGowan, Jul Loesch, Lucy O'Keefe, Elzabeth Moore and Sydney Callahan. 1) The femnst rnvoement has clamed that women should be n touch wth ther own bodes and should affrm ther normal bologcal processes. A~borton seems to rend ths fabrc by provdng a way of denyng the lfe whch a woman and a man have begun together. 2) True femnsm, tred of male domnance n so many areas, calls all to mutualty n decson-makng, homemakng and chld-rearng. Seeng aborton as a woman's rght -solely her prerogatve -far from advancng mutualty, feeds nto the tradtonal vew that women are manly responsble for chldren and that man need not worry about the consequences of hs actons. 3) Femnsm loudly and rghtly protests the use of womens' bodes as objects. s one surprsed, then, to fnd Playboy heavly fnancng the aborton rght movement? They who: have treated womens' bodes as playthngs and who have depersonalzed them n the process would naturally see the lnk to the depersonalzaton of the unborn lfe and the quck soluton to the consequences of the Playboy phlosophy. To support a woman durng pregnancy, to clam mutual responsblty, to treat the chld as a person -all these mght be a lot harder for those who have not treated women as other than playthngs at other tmes. 4) t seems to me that a gudng prncple of (Chrstan' femnsm has been a rejecton of those movements n socety whch have depersonalzed women and made them merely extensons of ther husbands or ther functon (e.g. mother, nurse, sster, etc.) Rather. femlnsm would counter that a woman's personal dgnty s nnate, not dervatve from her functon or relaton n the famly or socety. Where, then, s the sympathy for half the unborn chldren who have been depersonalzed and who are femnale? How are unborn chldren - and we -depersonalzed when the rght to lfe s lnked to whether one s wanted or not? 5) Part of a femnnst perspectve, as understand t, s the nsstenlce on the nterconnlectedness of socal ssues. n some quarters, however, aborton s the excepton, the "prvate ssue." As Jo McGowan has wrtten: "t's the whole system that has to change. A system that says that the answer to rsng crme rates s bgger prsons. That says that the answer to chld murders s Captal punshment. That says the answer to the problem of kllng people and sparng property s the neutron bomb. That says the answer to the unwanted chld s aborton." 1b quote from Lucy O'Keefe of the Prolfe Non-Volent Acton Project: "T~he aborton debate s usually carred on n these terms by both sdes. Ether you're concerned for chldren or you're concerned for fully grown women, not both at once. Lttle thought has been gven to what a response to a dffcult pregnancy would be lke f t were based on the assumpton that the full development of both people, chld and mother, was possble and a matter of ultmate concern to everyone."

Commons Overcrowdng MT has a novel soluton to dormtory overcrowdng: buld,another dormtory. n order to pay for ths dormtory, wthout rasng tuton by more than ten tmes the rate of nflaton, MT admts more freshmen. Ths contnues for a few years, untl one year, more freshmnen come than are expected. Of course, overcrowdng results. But MT has a novel soluton to overcrowdng. When frst saw Next House, whle t was under constructon, the tour was on entered one of the "solar doubles." Everyone takng the tour mmedately knew that room would be trpled. We were assured there would be; no trplng, the new dorm would allevate overcro~wdng. "There wll be peace n our day," sad Nevlle Chamberlane. Guess what? Tu~ton A 'frend of mne entered the nsttute around 1971, and receved a letter from then-presdent Jerome B. Wesner whch actually apologzed for rasng tuton to $2100. More sgnfcant than the prce tself s the fact that the nsttute felt compelled to apologze for rasng tuton. Can anyone magne the admnnstraton apologzng for rasng tuton now? The other day, whle leafng through my' lbrary, chanced upon a passage from the works of Jonathan Swft: " have been assured by a very knowng Amercan of my acquantance n London; that a young healthy chld, well nursed, s at a year old, a most delcous, nourshng, and wholesome food; whether stewed, roasted, baked or boled, and have no doubt,. that t wll equally serve n a frcase or ragoust." Even most freshmen wll admt, at least once they become upperclassmen, that a freshman s nothng more than an ntellectual "chld, at a year old." Furthermore, at the age of 17 or 18, a freshman wll provde commons wth far more tasty morsels than wll an nfant. Of course, the cost of commons could decrease; they wouldn't have to buy meat anymore. And snce freshmen have to pay tuton, even though some of them would not complete the term, the ext ra money could subsdze everyone else's tuton. Overcrowdng would rather quckly become a thng of the past. ndeed, the only possble objecton to my modest proposal can forsee would be that dormtory resdents would be provdng another subsdy to the nsttute. Most reasonable people would agree wth me that t s probably well worth the sacrfce to solve these problems. urge everyone to wrte to Gray, remndng hm what he sad n 1979 about. commons, and encouragng hm to take a freshman to lunch, as t were, a great act worthy of hs communal sprt ' f we ate admnstrators, on thme other hand, we could house people n ther offces...

The zombes can't be klled easly; they wll just fall down, bleed a bt, and get back up agan - unless you burn them or shoot them n the head. The General Assembly s lke a zombe; when t moves, t moves slowly, wthout coherence or cotordnaton. The General Assembly doesn't eat the flesh of ts human vctms; t eats ther tme. To the Edtor: n reference to Jason Papastavrou's letter [Feedback, May 3] concernng the choce of Greek newspapers, the Student Center Lbrary subscrbes to no foregn newspapers.

To the Edtor: n hs guest column of Aprl 22, Erc Sven Rstad questons Jeanne Krkpatrck's rght to address the students of the Unversty of Calforna at Berkeley on the grounds that she s representng a government whch supports repressve regmes throughout the world. He ctes, among other examples, srael's actons n Lebanon last summer as a case n pont that Mrs. Krkpatrck and the government she represents deserve only our contempt for supportng srael. But concernng the stuaton n Lebanon, t s nterestng to recall what Ambassador Ghoura, Lebanon's representatve to the Unted Natons, had to say as long ago as 1976: "The Palestnans ncreased the nfllx of arms nto Lebanon... They transformed most of the refugee camps, f not all, nto mltary bastons... common-law crmnnals fleeng from Lebanese justce found shelter and protecton n the camps... Those camps n fact became centers for the tranng of mercenares sent and fnanced by some other Arab states... Palestnan elements belongng to varous... organzatons resorted to kdnappng of Lebanese.. and sometmes foregners - holdng them prsoners, questonng them, torturng them, and sometmes even kllng them... They commtted all sorts of crmes n Lebanon... They smuggled goods... They went so far as to demand 'protecton' money... t s dffcult to enumerate all the llegal actvtes commtted by those Palestnan elements.... " Ths, then, was the stuaton n Lebanon before srael launched ts campagn. Nows as a result of ths acton, Lebanon has the potental for soveregnty wthn ts grasp for the frst tme n almost - L - - s a decade. Though the Lebanese peace talks have bogged down, there s confdence on the part of the Lebanese, sraels, and Amercans that a soluton wll be reached. ndeed, our government's avowed am of seeng that ths srael acton results n the long-sought peace was only renforced after the tragc bombng of our embassy two weeks ago n Berut. Ths support gven by our government to the srael acton and the ensung peace process concdes wth the prncples of democracy and human rghts whch Mr. Rstad so strongly supports, yet so gravely msunderstands.

"E.T was actually a departure for me. Ths new role s more lke the ones 'm used to playng," sad Robert M ac- Naughton, who was n Boston last week to promote hs new move. MacNaughton plays the lead n the new drama Am The Cheese, based on a book by Robert Cormer and co-starrng Hope Lange and Robert Wagner. " brought a lot of myself nto the part," he explaned. n the flm, he plays Adam Farmer, a boy n search of hs parents, hopng to uncover the truth of what we are told s a troubled past. Traumatzed by events n hs chldhood, Adam has blotted out elements of hs early years that are crucal to helpng hm answer hs questons, and hs psychatrst (Wagner) tres desperately to help hm recapture hs past and reveal the bured secrets that are tormentng hm. Adam sets out on hs bcycle on a journey to fnd both hs parents and hs lfe gone by. Gradually, he s able to put the peces of the puzzle together as s the audenlce, snce the nformaton s not dsclosed all at one tme and we are able to learn the facts at the same tme Adam does - sort of lke the way good murder mysteres work. For fear of gvng away too mruch of the story, hestate to dvulge many of the detals, but can allow you ths bt of knowledge: when Adam was young, hs father (Don Murray) had hs lfe put n perl, much the way Adam's appears to be now. He was forced to move hs wfe (Lange) and son away from ther home n Blount, New York, change ther denttes, and start a brand new lfe wth hs famly. As more of the story s revealed, the flm develops nto an ntrgung and, for the most part, effectve study of poltcs, courage, and human nature. The flm nltentonally starts slowly; we learn practcally nothng about Adam for Adak hnvn tsvet n the frst ffteen mnutes of the story. The reason for the slow begnnng eventually becomes clear, but at the tme t seemed as f were lstenng to a 78 RPM record beng played at 16 RPM. Some scenes ddn't appear to have anythng to do wth enhancng the narratve, and some of the conversaton was a bt stlted - a classc case of "textbook dalogue." Nklagrner s unconvncng as the psychatrst, comng across as more of a cold marble statue than a concerned doctor, and Murray suddenly adopts a slght talan accent halfway through tlhe flm. Despte ts obvous shortcomngs, Cheese works as a modern day human drama, ever so gently tuggng at our heartstrngs whle gvng us plenty to thnk about. The flm s an above average character study, thanks to some clever technques whch were used to tell Adam's story. One memorable scene comes near the end of the pcture when Adam s rdng hs bke around the grounds of the hosptal he s stayng at, and he passes by all the mages of the dfferent characters that he came across n hs journey for hs famly. The sequence seems to symbolze hs comtng n touch wth hs past; the effect s qute powerful and very movng. Am The Cheese s now showng n several theatres n the Boston area.

Peake sneered and watched the ball fall out of the strke zone. So went the next ptch. And the next.

State Unversty, ponts to the fact that many of the students at hs school don't meet the NCAA crtera but graduate nonetheless. Johnson says many schools do not do enough to help students from educatonally dsadvantaged backgrounds: "The proposal blames the vctm for the problem." Johnson's comment rases a very mportant queston of responsblty: What nsttuton s supposed to gve students what type of educaton? The Gramblng presdent's statement mples colleges should supply programs for those students who may not have mastered the fundamentals n hgh school. The prmary reason for the passage of Proposal 48 was that many educators felt athletes were beng exploted by major colleges and unverstes - the athletes' bodes were developed and used for four years, whle lttle or nothng was done to prepare ther mnds for lfe off the playng feld. Alan Page, a standout defensve end for the Mnnesota Vkngs and Chcago Bears and now a practcng lawyer, recalled a story n whch he and eght of hs teammates were studyng the Vkngs' playbook, whch was wrtten at an elementary level. He noted only two could read and understand all of the playbook, three could not read the whole book but could gan an adequate understandng; whle the other four could,do nether. Joe Paterno, head coach of the Pennsylvana State Unversty football team, noted'for turnng out not only fne football players, but good scholars, as well, was an mportant fgure n the passage of Proposal 48. Durng the NCAA conference n January, he sad n a speech whch n tself caused a lot of furor,. "For the past 15 years, we have had a race problem. We've told black kds who bounce balls, run around tracks, and catch touchdown passes that dong so s an end unto tself. We've raped a whole generaton of black students. We can't afford do t agan." Another argument for the rules says colleges, coaches, and athletes themselves have deluded young people nto thnkng sports s the way out of the ghetto. By placng ncreased emphass on academcs, student-athletes wll strve harder n the classroom. One who holds ths vew s Dr. Harry Edwards, assocate professor of socology at the Unversty of Calforna at Berkeley. Edwards has long been a crtc of college athletcs, and was an mportant fgure n the black mltancy movement n the 1960's.

Flemng ' sports c(,sp cons4 For years the Natonal Collegate Athletc Assocaton (NCAA) has pad lp servce to the academc defcences of socalled "student-athletes." n January of ths year, the NCAA decded to take a step toward cor-- rectng ths problem and passed Proposal 48, whch already has sparked controversy and promses to str up more. Proposal 48 deals prmarly wth academc requrements for ncomng freshmen, although there s a modfcaton to the NCAA's "satsfactory progress" rule. The two parts of the freshman elgblty requrement are as follows: 1) A student must have a hghschool grade pont average (GPA) of at least 2.0 out of 4.0. Ths GPA must be obtaned fromn a currculum consstng of 11 academc courses, ncludng a mnmum of three n Englsh, two n math, two n the socal scences, and two n the natural or physcal scences (ncludng a laboratory class, f the school offers one). 2) A student must score a mnmum of 700 on the Scholastc Apttude Test (SAT) or 15 on th e A mer ca n C ol1lege Test (ACT). The modfcaton n the "satsfactory progress" clause requres a student to earns a mnnmum number of credts annually toward a specfc degree. n the past, a student only had to earn a mnmum number of credts from any courses the school offered. These new rules on freshmnan elgblty apply only to Dvscon schools (such as Mchgan, Notre Dame, etc.), and take effect on August 1, 1986, whle the progress clause apples to Dvson and athletes and comnmences August 1, Proposal 48 has splt supporters and opponents prmarly along racal lnes. Those aganst the new rules say they wll reduce the number of black athletes attendng major colleges, wth some observers gong so far as to say the new standards are racst. Many of those opposng the new rules are admnstrators n predomnantly black colleges and unverstes n the South. Others fghtng Proposal 48 are cvl rohts leaders such as the Rev. Jesse Jackson of Operaton: PUSH and the Rev. Joseph Lowery of the Southern Chrstan Leadershp Conference. The chef argument aganst Proposal 48 s the standardzed test provson. The averagye score for all blacks who took the SAT s 684, slghtln, below the NCAA requrement, whle the asverage for whtes s 92 5 (the gap between wnhte and black scores has narrowed somew hat n recent yea rs).
