The quest for meaning can be fulfilled through questioning. Dr. Dennis Voskuil, IQQS's Hope Out-standing Professor Educator, told the C la s s of 1997 and their parents at the 132nd fall con-vocation held at D i m n e n t M e -morial Chapel Sunday.

Inh sspeech, " H i l l a y , Hope College and the Q u e s t f o r M e a n i n g , " V o s k u i l c h a l -lenged the Class of '97 to reex-amine Sheir life motivations and expectations of their education at Hope.

Be a catalyst of questions, he said. We have become a society that has lost its way, desperately grasp-ing for some kind of significance. Glitter and glitz, while they may seem significant, are not alone satis-fying. One must also question and search for answers.

44A clever but irritating beer commercial has been running on television lately which asks: Why ask why?," Voskuil said. "Why ask why? Because the question drives us to issues of ultimate concern, ultimate meaning."

Voskuil illustrated with a quote from pocl Cyprian Norwid: "To be what is happy, one should have (1) something to live on, (2) something to live for, (3) something to die for. The lack of one of these results in drama. The lack of two results in tragedy. It 's not enough to know, as the cynic does, the price of every-thing and the value of nothing."

' T h e quest for meaning is an-cient, universal and abiding. It may even be that which defines the dis-tinctive nature of human existence, setting humans apart from other animals? Other mammals may ask "What?" but it appears that humans alone ask " W h y ? "

The quest for meaning can be

facilitated through a college educa-tion, but one cannot solely depend upon it to give them quick answers. Voskuil argued that formal educa-tion is a tool with which to search out meaning, "...when all is said and done Hope College does not supply easy answers to the "whys" of hu-man existence, and it does not co-

erce students to adopt an institu-t i o n a l w o r l d v i e w , " V o s k u i l argued.

"In attempting to explain Hope's unique mission as a Christian liberal a r t s c o l l e g e , former President G o r d o n Van Wylen wrote that there must be a balance between c o r p o r a t e c o m -mitments and in-dividual expres-s ions , " Vosku i l said, quoting Van

Voskuil Wylen: "If the college

experience is to be worthwhile, there must be intellectual and social val-ues that its members hold in com-mon even as there must be room for private preferences; a balance must be struck between two powerful tra-ditions — individualism and com-munity. '"

Duke School of Business con-ducted a study in which the vast majority of students listed what they wanted to get out of school as money, p o w e r and f a m e , m o t i v a t i o n s Voskuil considered disillusioned.

"It is my hope that your experi-ence at this college will somehow help you to know that you are of such divine value that you will be-come free to be servants in a selfish world. It is my hope that you will be able to give yourselves away."

Unfor tuna te ly , Voskui l sa id , people often fail to realize this and wander through their lives living an illusion.

"Why ask why? " Voskuil said. "Because the quest is in the ques-tions. Because curiosity is the fuel for the academic journey. Why ask why? Because that is the very nature of human existence. It is that hunger for meaning and purpose. And that, class of 1997, is why you are here."

...AND ANOTHER YEAR BEGINS. Hope kicks off the year with new students as well as new equipment and faculty. These changes promise to provide an Interesting year for everyone.

Multicultural director appointed, Yolonda Vega assumes duties by Julie Blair campus editor

Yolanda Vega believes partner-ship and involvement are the keys to multi-cultural understanding.

Appointed the director of multi-cultural life in July, Vega says she will focus on bringing the Hope community together with the city of Holland by inviting the community onto the campus and encouraging students to look beyond the campus borders.

As director, she provides students with information and counseling aild presents multi-cultural programs. She also advises the col lege 's His-panic Student Organization and the Black Coalition.

"I see myself as a resource per-son," Vega said. "My goal is to see that everyone is comfortable coming in. I am accessible to work with a lot of different groups."

A 1988 graduate of Hope, Vega was hired by the Hope College Ad-

missions Off ice in June of 1990. Her responsibilities have included directing multi-cultural student re-cruitment, coordinating a program through which faculty call perspec-tive students and visitation programs for multi-cultural high school stu-dents.

She was interim multi-cultural counselor with the college's student development off ice from February to May of 1990. In addition, from June of 1988 to May of 1990 she was an English teacher at Holland West Middle School.

Vega says her skills will carry over easily to her new position as director. As an admissions coun-selor, she built strong relationships with perspectives, students now at Hope, which she will continue to facilitate.

Vega admits she is sometimes frustrated with the homogeneous "bubble" Hope students build for themselves, but blames indifference and misinformation on ignorance and a lack of time to become in-

k Vega

volved. "Hope students get very involved

with school and work, but there is also room to move outside into the community," Vega said. " W e are here to provide knowledge. W e can nurture understanding and growth."

j Career Planning and Placement improves accessibility by Heather Mumby editor-in-chief

The Office of Career Planning and Placement has made some changes in order to make their ser-vices more accessible to the students of Hope College.

The media has consistently re-ported that the job market is getting tougher every year and that college students should have a well-defined plan to begin the job search process before graduating.

Career Planning and Placement has been here to assist in that pro-cess in the past and has made it even easier to get help by extending office hours, setting upamobile office and lending their expertise to student

organizations. This expertise and assistance has always been offered free of charge to Hope Students.

"Our concern is that once a stu-dent leaves here they have as smooth a transition from the college experi-ence to the graduate or professional level whether they do it through this office or not," Dale Austin, director of Career Planning and Placement said.

Wednesdays, starting September 1, the office will be open until 7 p.m., two hours later than usual. This allows students with tight schedules longer hours to make use of the facilities.

Included in these facilities are a number of computer programs and catalogues to aid in research of spe-^

cif ic j o b marke t s and graduate schools. Trained staff members are on hajid to help explain how to use them.

"We're always updating and ex-panding our resources in the library," said Kelly Kottke, assistant director of Career Planning and Placement. "We have information on all sorts of different career possibilities as well as outlook information and how tb do a job search."

Also on Wednesdays, Career Planning and Placement represen-tatives will be on location in the upper level of Phelps dining hall from 5 to 6 p.m. to answer any questions people might have, in-cluding resume writing and inter-viewing tips. There will be a Career

Outpost set up in the middle section under the clock.

Career Planning and Placement is in the process of setting up career workshops with campus organiza-tion leaders which will focus on what direction the members could take to market their campus in-volvement and seek careers which match their interests.

t4A degree alone is not going to be sufficient to be successful and competitive in today's marketplace," Austin said. 44You need to compli-ment that degree with other critical experiences to insure the greatest odds of a successful job search."

While many students success-fully find jobs after graduation without any assistance from Career

Planning and Placement, there are just as many who take advantage of the resources available.

"If every student knew what they needed to do to make that successful transition and would do that, we wouldn't need to be here," Kottke said.

In addition to these changes. Ca-reer Planning and Placement will continue programs which have been successful in the past such as re-sume writing workshops, individual career counseling and off-campus recruitment programs.

The office of Career Planning and Placement is in the Charles R. Sligh, Jr. Center, located on 11th street next to Public Safety.

Cultural Viewpoint Thapelo Matenge

Sauntering down main street "decked" in my hi-tops, a pair of oversized jeans slung low, a "fly" shirt and a baseball cap one cannot help feeling some unease. The air becomes tense and my path like the red sea parts as some pedestrians, yes unsure, nervously move aside. Old ladies clutching their shopping bags tightly to their chests shift aside to let me pass. Even the local police slow down when driving by, eyeing me suspiciously. All perpetuating that stereotype of the dangerous black male.

This in and of itself an unfair empirical disposition to prejudge others only fosters a climate of mis-understanding. These feelings be-come the protagonist, fueling and drawing on all of these fears.

At the root of this though is the lack of contact, the lack of interac-tion, the lack of a reasonable repre-sentation of minorities in the Hol-land community but more impor-tantly here at Hope College.

Armed with such vivid experi-ences it is thus highly concerning that as a new school year commences minorities at Hope College still are so underrepresented. There instead persists a trickling effect with only a handful being enrolled this year.

Furthermore, there is still no per-son of color on the staff at Hope. Neither is there in employment a black faculty member at Hope. It is especially troubling that though the college emphatically expresses its commitment to an increase in the enrollment of minorities, the num-bers, especially for some of the dif-ferent minority groups, still do not reflect this commitment.

Even though African Americans are so underrepresented the admis-sions office has no plans to hire a person of color to vigorously recruit these students. This in spite of the fact that this person would be work-ing on familiar turf having been through the same experiences as these students.

Instead, the recruitment of all minorities is undertaken by one per-son whose natural disposition one would assume would be to recruit more successfully those of his/her same race, region, or culture. Fur-thermore, this immense responsi-bility and task places unfair expec-tations on this person to success-fully recruit all minorities.

At a time when there is a seeming return and resurfacing of open-ended acts of violence, motivated by racist

sentiments across the U.S., it be-

c o m e s important that African American students have access to others in office familiar with their struggle and experiences in order to offer them comfort, solace and guidance.

It is thus gravely troubling that the college is devoid of any black staff or faculty members. This in-advertently contributes to the frus-trations many students of color ex-perience on campus.

Nurtured, groomed and guided by our natural parents since birth it is a struggle opening up to others and expecting them to fully under-stand experiences that they have not experienced themselves. This dis-crepancy forces students of color to live compromised and attenuated lives ultimately as a result.

The college as a Christian insti-tution should be striving to rectify these discrepancies. It should be vigorously moving towards making Hope a more diversified institution, one representative of most cultures. These changes should be influenced by a deep desire to foster a spirit of racial harmony, a spirit of racial unity, a spirit of oneness rooted in a common thread of Christian broth-erhood/ethic.

New computer aids in visualization for Hope chemistry students by Tara Stollenmaier

staff reporter

Through the useof computers and polarized 3-D glasses chemistry students and professors will now be able get inside rotating molecules and "see" predicted reactions.

The power of visualization that these new computers offer should lead to easier and clearer under-standing. Students and professors of Organic, Inorganic and Physical Chemistry will be using them in class and for research.

"It should really be helpful in visualizing molecules, especially in inorganic chemistry where 3-di-mensional structures are a key component ." said Richard Blair( ,94), a chemistry major.

Now professors have a new method to present concepts to their

students. In the past they had only calculations to present, but now the numeric data can be understood through the 3-D molecular shapes that can be rotated and expanded on screen to demonstrate accurately the predicted results of experiments.

"Because of the development of powerful visualization tools in recent years, computational chemistry has undergone a key transformation. Whereas computational chemists in the past viewed their results as pages and pages of numeric output, nowadays we can construct apicture on the computer screen which de-scribes the results in a much more intuitive fashion. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words— or a thousand numbers in this case." said Dr. William Polik.

Although these computer labs are usually used only in research, Hope

will be using them as instructional tools.

This computer program should become a standard for chemists and students. Hope is one of the first four-year colleges to get one, only two or three other colleges have them. The new Computational Chemistry Laboratory was installed this summer and has already been used by students doing research with acetaldehyde molecules.

The Macintosh Computer lab, in Peale, houses 15 Macintosh work stations which are networked from the larger master computer. This new computer system was supported through a $45,812 grant from the National Science Foundation's In-strumentation and Laboratory Im-provement program and an equal amount of funding from Hope Col-lege.

UNITED STATES Although mired in what the Blue Chip Economic Indicators have^

called "the slowest (recovery] in post-World War II history/1, the stock market has continued to gain ground, breaking records and rising above 3650. Longterm interest rales have fallen to record lows, making purchasing homes and automobiles very attractive.

MIDDLE EAST The 11th round of peace talks began in Washington yesterday, with

signs of genuine progress. Foreign Minister Shimon Peres discussed options of Palestinian autonomy in the West Bank and Gaza; where Israeli Troops would be withdrawn. Peres rejected any creation of a Palestinian state, and the return of Jerusalem would not be negotiated. Separately, Zionists established another settlement in the Golan Heights, in an attempt to decrease the possibility of the strategic mountains' return.

SOMALIA The arrival of special forces troops in the capital of Mogadishu was

greeted by hostile crowds. President Clinton has dispatched over 4 0 0 1

troops, including elements of the elite "Delta force" in an attempt to maintain order and apprehend the warlord General Adid.

CHINA The United States initiated trade sanctions against China this past

week. Pointing to missile technology sales to Pakistan in violation of treaty, the United States stopped new sales of computers and equip-ment that could be used in the Chinese space program. Chinese officials denied the charges, and promised that actions would be taken in response.

OA Training is a learning experience by Julie Blair campus editor

OD MAGGIE KELLY ('95) helps a new student and Hope parents with orientation Information at the new Information desk in the DeWItt Center Lobby

Orientation process prepares students for life at Hope by Amy Seibcrt features editor

"Have you heard the one about the two s tuden ts w h o went to Calvin?" asked Scott Sawicki ( '95) as he int roduced a skit . "They thought there was no Hope."

From the very beginning of Ori-entation weekend, the main goal of this year 's Orientation Assistants (OAs) was to get first year students and their parents to loosen up, relax and laugh.

HOP Nomat -

ter h o w c o r n y the joke was.

Sawicki was one of the upper-c l a s s s t u d e n t s in-volved in a skit called " H . O . P . E ; \ which was presented to parents of new students. It was a h u m o r o u s look at vari-o u s s i t ua -t i o n s (hat parents may come across o v e r the nex t y e a r IIV?/ w i t h t h e i r o w n B W r son o r d a u g h t e r . V From room-mate differ- ences to homesick-ness to declaring a major, many worries in the minds of moms and dads were put to rest through this skit.

Those questions which were not answered had an opportunity to be d i s c u s s e d dur ing a s tudent - led question and answer panel directly a f t e r w a r d . E v e n d u r i n g th i s unrehearsed session, the students inspired a few rounds of laughter, putting parents at ease.

" 'H .O.P .E . ' was very successful last year, so this year they also wanted to do something for students

that was humorous and lighthearted to get them to relax and enjoy them-selves," explained Kristen Douglass {'96), an Assistant Director (AD).

From that idea came "Orange and Blue For You," a new skit cre-ated to portray some feelings and events which students might en-counter during their first year. It was intended to be an unbiased look at Hope student life.

" W e purposely left some aspects,

the G r e e k s y s t e m .

rima|ip

1 b e c a u s e students to on their own abou t s o m e

wc wanted discover Hope

and f ind out things for them-

selves," Douglass said. OAs are there as a resource for

those things that first year students do need help finding out, like where to go and who to turn to when ques-tions or problems arise.

Richard Frost, Dean of Students, stresses that OAs are meant to pro-vide a sense of belonging, a friendly face, encouragement, support and the sense that things will work out if one gives Hope a chance. "They ' re willing to do all of that and more because they had good experiences with their OAs and they want to give

those same good experiences to others," he said.

"We try to be a friend, make [the new students] feel at home, and do fun things with them so they don't have to be concerned with the social aspect of school. Then they'll hope-fully be comfortable enough to con-centrate on other more important things. An OA needs to be someone that a new student can count on and trust," said Christine Osborn ( '96). She feels that she can anticipate a majority of the questions and con-cerns that new students will have

b e c a u s e it w a s only a year ago that she was go-ing through

the same things that the class of '97 is now expe-riencing.

Orientation weekend was designed to raise the

s t uden t s ' and parents ' level of comfort about making

the transition from high school to college. A n n e B a k k e r -Gras, Director of Student Activities, and O r i e n t a t i o n Directors Sheilia Hendrick( '94)and

K e n d r a Grate ( '94) made sure to cover every angle in plan-ning the itinerary. From Academics 101, a new feature of Orientation which lets students know exactly what is expected of them in a col-lege course, to Playfair, meant to break down barriers through play, first year students were well pre-pared from all sides for the changes that lie ahead of them.

The student panel at " H . O . P . E " was asked by one parent to give students one piece of advice for the year. Renee Harris ( '95) , an AD, r e s p o n d e d , " D o n ' t pan ic . Give yourself and Hope a chance."

Spelling your name with your tushy is no easy task.

Just ask the Orientation Assis-tants who stood on stage and worked their bums, swerving to the left and the right in vain attempt to write their name in the air for their fellow OAs.

This year 's team learned (hat "OAing" is trickier than it looks. Not only did OAs have to learn the art of "bull spelling," but also to effectively lead a group of eight new students and facilitate sometimes tender feelings.

Under the leadership of Anne Bakker-Gras, Director of Student Activities, Student Directors Sheilia Hendrick and Kendra Grate, plan-ning for Orientation Weekend got underway last March. The directors chose a baseball theme — Hope College, Catch the Fever — and began weaving it around the week-end events.

Fourteen Orientation Directors were hired to work with Bakker-Gras, Hendrick and Grate to help put the program together and train the OAs.

Last spring over 200 people were interviewed in groups by the ODs — a record number of applicants — and 100 were chosen to fill the po-sitions.

Orientation assistants arrived a week before classes began to start

' training. The three day sessions were broken up into large group sessions and smaller team groups composed of seven or eight OAs. Each was lead by an OD.

The focus of the sessions was to teach methods to help new students feel comfortable in a foreign envi-ronment . Small group meet ings functioned much like the new stu-dent groups. OAs learned ice break-ers, name games and met other OAs. Like the new students, they colored group pennants, created team cheers

and participated in skits. Many OAs, new students them-

selves a year ago, remember only too well the intimidating feelings of leaving family and friends. They know firsthand the experience can be downright traumatizing.

"I was probably the most scared one of everybody," recalled one OA.

"When I stood in line for my id, my knees were shaking. When I first met my roommate I had to quick sit down, I could barely stand up be-cause I was so upset. 1 want to help new students gel acquainted with their surroundings as my OAs did for me."

Dispelling myths greatly allevi-ates fear of the unknown. OA.s as-sured their new students that no professor will force you to read four books in one night; Greeks don ' t boil their pledges in oil; messy roommates will pick up their dirty laundry if you ask nicely.

"You are a resource for them and a role model," counseled Bakker-Gras. "Be a friend to them and lis-ten."

But being a good listener is aw-fully uncomfortable when none 's talking. OD Kristen Douglass ad-vised her OAs to wait out a lull in

' conversation. She stressed that given the opportunity,eventually they will take the lead.

"To be a leader takes more than just knowing what to do, it takes motivating others," Grate said.

To do that involves taking per-sonal risks. Many O A s said they had act a bit silly to "get the group go-ing" and let the new students know it is okay to let loose.

"Getting things started is the biggest challenge," said OA Angie Strey. "You definitely have to be a cheerleader. You have to get their mind off the negative and get them to relax and not be so apprehensive."

"It is a great learning experience for us too," O D Kathleen Dominiak said. "We learned about responsi-bility and acceptance. It 's a good opportunity to role model."

Editorial

Why ask why? Why ask why? While we have all heard this Bud Dry

slogan a million times, not many of us have ever tried to answer the question.

Dr. Voskuil, in his convocation address Sunday, encouraged us to ask why "because the question drives us to issues of ultimate concern, ultimate meaning," because it's our nature as humans to be curious and search for

meaning. This being the first week back to school, it seems an

opportune time to examine how this natural quest for

meaning is nurtured in the classroom. Besides preparing us for our intended careers, higher

education should challenge us to think beyond the perameters of our textbooks, to look at things in ways we've never looked at them before. We should take full advantage of this opportunity.

Professors as well should feel it as their responsibility to stimulate independent thinking in their students. They should encourage students to challenge their authority and question why things are taught the way they are.

As students, we are not empty canisters waiting to be filled with whatever substance our professors choose to pour down our throats. We have the capability to sort through what is told us and accept or reject concepts according to our own cultural values, morals and religious

beliefs. So many of us go through our academic career in a

daze, not really absorbing or even taking the time to really think about what's being presented to us. We only put as much effort into our homework as is necessary to please

our instructors. Our goals should be to push our mental powers to

their limits. I'm not saying that every waking hour should be spent pursuing the meaning of life. I'm just saying that if you're taking a class, whether it's a core class or major requirement, you should at least make an effort to really

absorb what it's all about. We're paying large sums of money each year for the

chance to take classes here and obtain that piece of paper called a diploma which tells us we are scholars. It is our responsibility to live up to the title "scholar" by taking an active part in our own learning process instead of being led along the way blindfolded.

As the editor, Td like to welcome all returning and first year students to another year at Hope College and another year of The Anchor.

I 'm sure the year will be filled with great cul tura l and c a m p u s events, interesting people and ex-citing sports, as well as the less cheery thoughts of campus crimes and controversies. As editor of this publication, it is my duty to bring you complete coverage of all this, and more.

Following the tradition of past editors, I'd like to write a few words about what 1 see as the purpose and responsibility of The Anchor.

The Anchor is many things to many people. For some, it may be the source for information about what 's going on around campus. For others, it may be nothing more than a source for killing time while eating at Phelps. My wish is that The Anchor provides some useful purpose in the lives of i t 's readers, no matter how big or small.

A college newspaper is here to give you more than a summary of what 's going on around campus. We are here to answer the questions you want to ask, but don ' t . W e are

here to dispel the rumors. We are here to present the facts to you and. let you draw your own conclusions from what you read.

With every decision made on The Anchor, I have to take into consider-ation that this is a paper for the Hope Communi ty . 1 have to be thinking: "What impact will this have on the communi ty?" " Is this something the community wants or needs to know?" "Am I making this decision for me and the paper, or for you?" W e want very much for this to be a paper that serves its readers and provides you with useful and en-tertaining informatipn that keeps you truly interested.

We are open to hearing any suggestions or complaints you may have about 77ie Aw c/wr. (We ' re also very open to hearing about the things you LIKE about The Anchor.) I 'm not saying that we ' re going to make every change you suggest, but there might be things you notice that es-cape our attention or that we ' re just not aware of.

The only way any changes arc going to be made is if someone lets us know there 's a problem. Com-plaining to your roommate or best

"4

Heather Mumby friend may make you feel better, but they probably don ' t have the ability to make any real changes on The Anchor. W e do. So, please drop a line and let us know what you think. W e value the opinions of our read-ers.

We at The Anchor are very ex-cited about this year and look for-ward to bringing you your weekly dose of news and information about the campus you call home seven months out of the year.

I 'd like to take a moment to thank my staff members who were able to come in early on such short notice to help put out this first issue. Let ' s hope the enthusiasm takes us through the whole school year!

A note from Student Congress

To the Student Body of Hope College: (Editor's note: The following is a

letter written by the Student Con-gress Cabinet members and sub-mitted for publication in The An-chor.)

The Student Congress Cabinet would like to extend a warm wel-come to the freshman class and all first-year students in general here at Hope. We welcome you all to the 1993-94 academic year along with congratulations on deciding to join or rejoin the Hope College family.

The cabinet is working hard to retain all of the exci tement per-petuated by the cabinet elections in the spring of 1993 which has allowed three new cabinet members to serve you this year.

Our responsibility to the Student Body is to represent your needs and desires and take your ideas and transform them into action that will produce first-rate proposals which will in turn improve the quality of Hope College life in every aspect. We all have our challenges here at Hope, with the Congress Cabinet having prepared to accept the chal-lenges of an innovat ive general agenda that composes of new re-sponsibilities of producing visible and concrete programs and proposals to illustrate Congress ' effectiveness, to developing a better relationship between you and our administration and to the financial aspect of involv-ing the voice of the Student Body in the Appropriations Process.

In order for Student Congress to continue to adhere to its traditional purposes of serving the Student Body, and in order to successfully assume the respons ib i l i t ies and challenges that will arise f rom our new general agenda, we will need and depend on communication, ideas and a tremendous amount of leader-

ship from the Student Body. The Cabinet has no doubt that we will see all those components at work that will enhance Student Congress and Hope College.

To the Student Body we make this request: Join the cabinet in making as many positive changes throughout the year as possible. W e have met exceptional individuals who can become great leaders and public servants. The leadership ca-pabilities of students here have been exhibited by many underclassmen and upperclassmen alike. This year is no different than any other year when the Student Congress Cabinet looks to individuals in the Student Body who share our common in-terest in making a difference in the Hope Community and values the profit f rom public service.

Student Congress is the most in-fluential and powerful organization on our campus and as such is ac-countable for key decision-making whether acting on student concerns, being responsible for campus orga-nization funding or bringing high-profile speakers to our campus via the enriching Speaker Series. Un-derstand that Student Congress is only answerable to you and the members of Congress themselves and "grid-lock" cannot happen by e x t e r n a l f o r c e s only C o n g r e s s themselves, for the administration only gives us support and does not control any of our policy or deci-sion-making.

Keep in mind the responsibility of a Congress member. You are required to attend the weekly Con-gress meetings and also serve on at least two or three governing boards and committees. The power from some of these committees comes in the form of you having an equal vote with some of the elite administra-

tors at Hope College. You are also required to bring to the weekly meeting your insight and views and most importantly the v iews and opinions of your constituents.

This is a direct and head-on way to have a say in any decisions that affect your life at Hope. Remember that even though Student Congress is a very professional organization, you will benefit from the relation-ships that will form between fellow members and that of your constitu-ents.

The Cabinet hopes that you will join us this year and we encourage people f rom political and non-po-litical backgrounds as well as student from all genders and race to run for Student Congress . The process , which is simplistic at its best is as follows:

1. Obtain a petition any time from the Student Congress Off ice (in DeWit t Cen te r ac ross f rom WTHS) until September 10.

2. Have the petition signed by 25 people from your district (residence hall).

3. Return the completed petition to the Student Congress Off ice by 5 p.m. on Friday, September 10.

4. And campaign with competi-tiveness for the September 16 elec-tion!

If you have any questions as to the process or about the many op-portunities on Student Congress then ^ please stop by to chat with us in the Congress office on any af ternoon, • Monday through Friday. The Cabi- t net wishes you all the best in the up-coming election.

Sincerely, Eric K. Foster, President Christopher R. Heaton,

Vice-President Michael Yantis, Comptroller

Anchor pUolo by Tara Stollenmaier

Cyril Lixenberg's untitiled sculpture brightens the wall outside of Phelps.

Artwork is displayed outside Phelps by Mell issa Endsley arts & enter ta inment editor

The walk to Phelps for meals is a lways full of great things—the trees, the sunshine , the squirrels and now a lovely new piece of art work by Dutch artist Cyril Lixenberg.

H o p e purchased the piece three years a g o when Lixenberg was a fea tured artist in the DePree Art gallery. T h e Art on C a m p u s Com-mit tee spent quite a while deciding where to display the sculpture.

" T h e decision came down to ei-ther outs ide of T h e Kletz, where it would be facing traffic, or outside of Phe lps , " said Lixenberg.

Lixenberg said that he is pleased by the location because so m a n y s tudents will be able to see the sculpture on their way into Phelps .

Dr. Wilson, Professor of Art His-tory is a lso happy about the location, but he has a f ew reservations.

"1 agree that it is nice for the students to be able to enjoy it outs ide of Phelps, but I also know what students do with ice cream cones , " said Wilson, "it is important that students respect the piece and leave it as it is."

Lixenberg is known for express-ing himself in two and three d imen-sional geometrical fo rms and play-ing games with forms, counterforms.

circles, t r iangles, and squares. The sculpture ou ts ide of Phelps is no e x c e p t i o n to t hese a t t r ibu tes of L ixenbe rgs ' s work .

4tI did a series a large series of t h e s e k i n d o f p i e c e s , " s a i d Lixenberg, " they are all experiments with oc tagonal circles in two and three d imens ions . "

Lixenberg a lso expla ined that the sculptures are m a d e entirely of steel enamel plates keeping them virtually safe f rom the e f fec t s of weathering.

"These mater ia ls a re ideal for outdoor d isp lay ," said Lixenberg. "They wear ex t remely well. They will more than likely be the same color in 100 years . "

Qui Ju is more cultural then comedic by Mel l i ssa Endsley arts & enter ta inment editor

The latest film by director Zhang Yimou , "The Story of Qui Ju," has been labeled " A Revenge Comedy . " Th is title is misleading because the story is not about revenge nor is it a c o m e d y in the traditional sense of the word .

" T h e Story of Qui Ju" is a one of great confus ion and frustration for Qui Ju (Gong Li), the wife of a Ch inese farmer (Liu Pei Qi) , w h o desires an apology from the chief of their vi l lage (Lei Lao Sheng) for kicking her husband in the testicles.

T h e actual issue at hand is in no way f u n n y until one realizes all the touchy si tuations that Qui Ju is sub-jec ted to in her quest for an apology f rom the chief. Yet even in these scenes , the humor is quite subtle.

S t range looks and shaking heads fo l low Q u i Ju and her sister-in-law

(Yang Liu Chun) as they begin to climb the bureaucratic latter in search of what they consider a fitting p u n -ishment for the chief . They start out by taking their case to the local g o v e r n m e n t w h i c h d e c i d e s tha t proper punishment for the act con-sists of the chief paying for the medical expenses .

Th is judgement does not sat isfy Qui J u, but not because she is b lood-thirsty for revenge. Instead, Qui Ju feels her husband ' s rights were vio-lated and that the chief ought to apologize for his inappropriate ac-tion. She is s imply a woman w h o believes in apologizing and making the wrong things right, instead of the grudge holding witch that the title implies.

From here, Qui Ju and her sister-in-law travel the country in hopes of f inding an authority f igure who will order the chief to apologize . Dur ing their journey there are some m o r e

subtle hints of humor , but not the kind of laughs that one m a y expect f r o m a f i lm tha t h a s the w o r d "comedy" in its title.

However , one thing that defiantly makes this f i lm worth seeing is the rich Chinese cul ture that i s apparent throughout.

One gets an indepth look into both the tradit ions of old country Chinese l iving and into the m o d e m ways of Bei j ing. This inc ludes a close up look at the living arrange-ments in the country and how it is very c o m m o n to have third and ' fourth genera t ion fami l ies l iving under one roof .

Despi te this f i l m ' s title be ing misleading, it has much to o f f e r in the way of learning about the tradi-tions and at tr ibutes of the Chinese culture. T h e f i lm will be at the Knickerbocker Theatre until Sep-tember 9 . S h o w s are night ly at 7 p.m. & 9 :10 p .m.

As I was saying Mellissa Endsley

The Good Stuff! It was the brightest spot in

the whole room. It was a f luorescent light in the midst of rusty bunk beds and last years saw dust . This is the good stuff, I thought . Really. It was the one and the only: Good Stuff Box, that crazy, zany box of wel-come back toiletries given to students upon their arrival.

I think it 's a pretty good thing, the Good Stuff Box. I t 's a good idea to give people a little something to try, and a little something to compensate for all of the stuff that they may have over looked in the midst of packing and preparing for school.

The more I think about the Good Stuff Box, the more I wish that somebody had given me a G o o d Stuff List. You know, like a list of good things to know, and to do, and to try during the school year.

I did learn most of this stuff on my o w n before the year was out, but I probably could have saved a lot of time and effor t had somebody given a list of important , yet easy to forget things. Something along the lines of:

The G o o d Stuff List: A Few Good Things to Do

1. Af ter you get settled, call your parents and tell them you ' re all right. Tell them that you are enjoying yourself. Say thank-you for all their help with preparing for college, and heck, if you ' re really into kissing up, start in about what an outstand-ing opportunity they have provided for you by allowing you to attend a fine school like Hope.. .etc. The whole thing takes no more than ten minutes and you really should do it because if it weren ' t for them, w h o k n o w ' s where you 'd be. It will also make up for all of the not-so-happy phone calls you may make later in the year. i.e. " I need money , " " I ' m failing chem," "I got dumped and I want to change schools."

2. Take a walk. Get to know the town you live in. Find a place to go for pizza. F ind a place to get your hair cut . Find a place to go when you want to be alone. Use these first few weeks to do your investigating because i t ' s probably the most free t ime you ' l l have all year. And the more places you are familiar with, the less chances you have to get lost.

3. Introduce yourself to people. Not knowing people is uncomfor table for everybody, but the easiest way to make this situation more comfor tab le is to meet people. G o somewhere that seems interesting to you and then if you meet someone , then you already have a common interest. Also, d o n ' t be afraid to go places alone. If you think something sounds cool , go. If you d o n ' t think that you ' re an interesting person to hang out with, who will?

4. Cont inue reading the newspaper (the library gets daily newspapers) and watch-ing the news (in your lobby). Don ' t forget that there is a world outside of Hol land , Michigan and Hope Col lege .

5. On the same note as above, try to become involved in something that has abso-lutely nothing to do with school. Join a club, get a j o b in town, volunteer somewhere . It doesn ' t matter what you do as long as it is a safe and legal way to get you mind off of college related activit ies.

6. ***This last one is impor tan t ! Get organized. This is the key to being happy and healthy well, at least in my book. You can save hours of blood, sweat , and tears by taking just a little bit of t ime to stay organized. Keep a calender. Make lists. K e e p your room clean. Develop some sort of homework routine. All of these things make life easier and allow more time for the Good Stuff!

September 1,1993 The Anchor 5

From the Cheap Seats Steve Shilling

Speed ! "Speed , y o u ' r e a wonderfu l d^ive^. , , -Trixie

It 's Monday, which means only one of two things. It 's time lo check your fantasy football players, or it 's deadline day.

Today, it 's the latter. Yet, I have nothing to write

about and only one thing to look forward to; a tooth pulling. Which is about as fun as gelling nailed by Ronnie Lott on a crossing route over the middle.

So I 'm in the chair, a sleek model, probably a '91. The fun is only beginning as the Doc shoots me up with Novocain, making the left side of my face feel like that of one Rocket J. Squirrel. " I 'm gonna give you a little gas to help you relax a little." For a split second I thought that 1 was gonna get a waist high fast ball out over the plate so 1 could deposit it in the left field bleachers, but I 've been here before so I know it 's time to play fighter pilot or some such game.

"Yeah, this is the life," I 'm thinking after a couple of minutes of that tingly sensation that the gas gives you, "time to break on through to the other side."

And I 'm gone. Off into a little world of make-believe, but today I 'm not Darth Vadcr nor am I shooting down planes around the world. Today I 'm Paul Tracy, Indy-car driver, four laps away from winning Indianapolis. However, the victory is short but sweet and 1 can only think of another famous race car driver.

The young man strides confident toward his racing car. His blue eyes take a long hard look at the engine. His crew

chief. Sparky, lets the driver know that everything is a go for the day 's race, a grueling 300 mile mountain trek somewhere in the Far East.

He is, without question, the greatest racing legend in the history of the sport.

He is Speed Racer. Perhaps you 've seen him, the

black haired young gun of Auto Racing who always seems to escape death by a whisker while making up incredible time on the race course only to win the race by half a car length.

Then there's the car. Shaped like a bullet, the white

rocket on wheels has a big red M on the hood and the number five on the side. It's known world-wide as the Mach 5. But don' t let the average looks fool you, this isn't your ordinary racing ma-chine. Aside from the always handy bullet proof glass, the Mach 5 can: travel underwater like a submarine, cut through a forest of redwood trees, jump over ravines and other assorted obstacles, and about four other handy items adorn the car. Once, even a twin Mach 5 was built that could fly.

Unlikely you say? Even the man. Speed Racer

himself says of the car "the Mach 5 is the greatest race car on the earth."

However, Trixie, his long time girlfriend argues " i t ' s not the car that 's great, i t 's the driver."

Which I would tend to agree with now that I 've seen all his races, but the fact that he 's only a cartoon (Weeknights at la.m on MTV) may make his feats unlikely, but they're still amazing.

Sure, it 's not real auto racing, but it 's a light-hearted way for me to get the year started and almost as easy as...well...pulling teeth.
