Explore Yugoslavia in May

Magician John Fabjance entertained visitors and students in Phelps cafeteria dur-ing Siblings' Weekend last week (photo by Gwen Miller)

by Dr. Michael B. Petrovlch

Near the exit of the Dachau Concentra-tion Camp Memorial near Munich, West Germany, there is the inscription by George Santayana: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." Many interpretations could be attached to this statement by one of the leading 20th century philosophers; however, all of them deal with the way in which we humans respond to the ex-periences of the past.

The 1983 session of the May Term in Yugoslavia program will explore the ways in which the peoples of Yugoslavia responded to wars fought on their ter-ritory in the past, and the way in which the war experiences have shaped their view of the world, their concepts of themselves, and their willingness to resist. This topic is timely coming at the point in which the world is hung in the balance between the prospect of a total nuclear war and the human inability to resolve the oustanding ideological, political and economic disputes through negotiation.

As in previous years, the May Term Program in Yugoslavia is based on its fundamental objective to provide unique opportunities for Hope students to travel through both East and West Europe, learn about Europeans and their ways, and have fun doing the it. The program will commence in Western Europe where students will be introduced to the WWII experiences of the Dutch, French and

German peoples. Armed with this ex-perience, students will proceed, travell-ing in by now famous and indestructible Ford vans, East to Yugoslavia. Once there students will explore the genesis of the Yugoslav romantic and dramatic resistance to Axis occupation during World War II by tracing the Yugoslav will to resist as far back as the 14th century. By talking with the war veterans, inspec-ting the war sites and museilms, and discussing the topic of war with young Yugoslavs, American students will learn about the nature of the contemporary Yugoslav society bom out of the fires of an extraordinary combination of an epic national liberation struggle, an inter-ethnic civil war and a social revolution. All these factors have contributed to the symbolic dualism of Yugoslavia today : a commitment to non-alignment in its foreign policy, and a commitment to self-management in its internal affairs.

The tentative total cost (including air fare) of the 1983 program will be below $2000, and it will earn at least three credit hours. If you are interested to learn more about the 1983 program-please come TONIGHT at 7 p.m. at Lubbers Loft to discover what Yugoslavia does to creative and wondering minds of Hopeites. Refreshments will be served to nourish your appetite; the "Yugoslav mafia" of the previous years will nourish your thought through their slides, film, and personal reflections.

Dr. Richard Zare visits Hope College by Beth Schilling The Hope chemistry department en-

Joyed a spectacular week with Dr. Richard Zare, this year's Dreyfus 'scholar in residence'.

Zare spent a week at Hope as part of the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Distinguish-ed Scholars Program, an annual event since 1977 which has been and is generously funded by the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation. The program consisted of a professional symposium, lectures, and informal interacton bet-ween Zare, students and faculty. In spite of his rigorous schedule, Zare emerged with even more energy than he arrived wlth-he was able to recover form a cold despite the snow and clouds looming over Holland.

Zare is a physical chemist, now the Shell Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at Stanford University, and is also one of the world's leading experts in

laser spectroscopy. Born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1939, he received his bachelor and doctorate degrees from Harvard Univer-sity. In 1979, he was awarded the Michael Polanyi Medal and was a recipient of the Earle K. Pyler Prize, awarded by the American Physical Society in 1981. In ad-dition, he is a member of many national professional organizations and advisory committees.

Laser spectroscopy is used by chemists to investigate the electronic structure of molecules. A laser is an intense beam of light at a specific wavelength which con-tains an exact amount of energy. This energy is used to excite molecules to higher energy states and the florescence, the energy emitted during the transition of electrons to lower energy states, is recorded as a spectrum, a molecular blueprint. The study of these spectra is spectroscopy.

Zare himself was like a friendly laser beam-bright and piercing but warm and sensitive. It was impossible not to catch his enthusiasm-he was bubbling over with ideas. When he gave a lecture, he ob-viously wanted his listeners not only to understand his research but to share his excitement in and his love for science. His aim was not to awe his audience but to in-spire them as well as enlighten them.

But deeper and most impressive was his personal interest in every person he

met while he was here. He made the ef-fort to learn the names of all the people he was Introduced to and he cared about their interests and uniqueness. I have my own story to tell, as I'm sure everyone who met Zare has.

Anorexia Nervosa: the diet run amok 00 ifH

u CQ 9 u > o 2

by Dave Gattney , Anorexia Nervosa: Many people know someone who has had it, comedians Joke about it, and many overweight people have wished that they could get it, "Just for a little while."

But what exactly is Anorexia? Clinical definition includes a 20-25 percent weight loss, the apparent Inability or refusal to eat, an obsession with food, and a distorted body image. A more pictures-que description given to Anorexia has been 'the diet run amok.' Yet there is nothing picturesque about this condition which inflicts 3 percent of the female U.S. college population and has a mortality rate of 10 to 15 percent. Although 95 per-cent of diagnosed anorectics are female, the number of recorded male victims Is on the rise. Hope College does not seem to be any more Immune tolhe problem than any other college. Joyce Hanlon of the Hope College Counseling Center reports that 7 percent of the 700 clients that the

center saw last year were suffering from some type of eating disorder. Although not all of the eating disorders were Anorexia or Bulimia, Hanlon states that there are enough cases of this type at Hope College to consider It a serious pro-blem.

Severe limiting of caloric intake to levels of 300 to 600 per day (15 calories per pound per day is the estimated amount needed to maintain present weight), and a preoccupation with exercise are distinguishing characteristics of Anorex-ia. Bulimia, a related condition. Involves the consumption of extremely large amounts of food and then the purging of the body. In both cases self-Induced vomiting, laxltlves, diuretics, enemas, and even emetics are sometimes used to increase weight loss..

As can be Imagined, there are some serious medical complications that can result from following such a regimen.

Primal Scream Academia anemia

by Annie Brown Last week I bought my first Christmas

card, and it's not even Thanksgiving yet. AARGH! This cold weather and snow is obviously messing up my biorhythms, yours too probably. I can tell. And if you're not the victim of this oppressive commercialism you're probably suffer-ing from another ailment prevalent dur-ing the holiday season-academia anemia. Yes, you've got it. Your eyes look like those of a madman. You look like you want to take an axe to your computer ter-minal and then run back to the library and highlight your psychology book with a propane torch. School is Just becoming too much of a burden for you, isn't It?

Well, why not Just take off? Kiss little Tulip City good-bye, pack up all your cares and woe and say bye-bye Nouveau Rlche U. Drop out of this rhetorical rat-race and sever the collegiate umbilical cord.

Today, before the anguish tortures you any longer and before everybody gets the Idea, head over to the Registrar's Office and withdraw to your heart's content.

Succumb to immediate gratification

and start packing your Gucci luggage now. Don't think of it as blowing off, rather think of it as a sabbatical. Thoreau had Walden, you can have the Bahamas. Don't worry about things here at Nouveau U., the professors, being the good Chris-tians that they are, will understand com-pletely.

Don't worry about your plants, your guinea pigs or your homework. The rhododendrum and the rodents will sur-vive and the books will always be there. So, no sweat.

At least, no sweat until you're there ly-ing on the hot sands relaxing, con-templating your novel and trying to remember the name of your advisor.

Acordlng to immediate gratification specialist, I. Juan Itnow, "The important thing to remember is that you must not feel guilty during this anxiety escape." In other words, if you left for the tropics without handing in computer programs or research designs Just don't worry your lit-tle head about it.

; Simply erase all guilt and worry, have fun, and I'll see you in St. Croix.

Hypothermia due to weight loss, severe constipation, cessation of the menstrual cycle In women, periodontal disease. In-somnia, and vitamin deficiencies are common byproducts of Anorexia and Bulimia. Practicing Bulimia also resuts in electrolyte imbalances which can cause muscle spasms, kidney problems, or cardiac arrest.

The costs of eating disorders are Just as high on other aspects of the person's life. As their lives become more and more en-tangled In their obsessive-compulsive eating-related behaviors these people commonly become withdrawn, quiet, o f t e n t e m p e r m e n t a l , t h r o w i n g themselves Into exercise, studies, or food related activities such as cooking and shopping for others.

We would be committing a gross error, however, to assume that'the cure Is simp-ly to make the anorectic eat. Anorexia Is characterized by a distorted body Image; the anorectic Is convinced that the people around him or her are skinny and enjoy seeing him or her fat. There is present a type of delusional non-rational thinking often found in malnourished and starving people. The anorectic often either does not realize the seriousness of the situation or feels helpless to change.

We should also keep in mind that Anorexia Is usually a symptom or manifestation of an underlying problem. Dr. Hilde Bruch quotes one of her patients as saying: "He (the doctor) would say 'eat!' as If putting on ten pounds Is going to solve all my problems. It's not: solving my problems is going to make me eat."

The situation Is far from hopeless. Many anorectics are being successfully treated. As far as self-treatment and prevention of Bulimia and Anorexia among Hope College students, Joyce Hanlon stresses the need for people on diets to eat balanced meals with choices, from all four food groups. Although good nutrition can be an excellent measure to prevent the 'diet run amok,' we should keep In mind that people with eating disorders suffer from underlying pro-blems manifested by Anorexia or Bulemia.

If you have a roommate or friend who is suffering from an eating disorder, Hanlon suggests that you maintain Interest and concern, but do not pressure the person about eating. Take responsibility for get-ting that person some help. Talking to

WTAS to tune in on FAA byLoriSlegal Six executive staff members from

WTAS represented Hope College at the Loyola Radio Conference held In Chicago the weekend of November 12-14. The con-ference Is conducted annually and each year Hope has been active. However, this year has proved the most beneficial and has sparked much enthusiasm for all those Involved. * : _ j The key factor that arouses a great deal

of excitement is the topic of going open air-FM! The conference was very in-formative and encouraging concerning Hope College being tuned in on the FM dial by Ifeptanbef 1983. There Were various seminars and workshops ranging from: being van : on air personality, building station posture, and writing

news features, to general managing of a station. The conference also brought In major record companies who promoted the latest albums of the hottest groups, giving WTAS the opportunity to "get on top" of the newest available music and trends In the music field. Special features of the weekend Included a private press conference with Phil 'n' the Blands, and a showcase the the band Broken English. Both groups can be heard cm WTAS.

k Geheral Manager, Rich kennedy, feels the conference "gave us an incredible amount of ideas relating to both format and the presentation of information." Anne Bakker added "We learned tow WTAS can serve th^ students, as well as create an educational experience for

ourselves." • Chris Stagg, programming director,

Pete de Moya, music director, Jon Watts, sjwrts director and Lori Seigel, promo-tion director, all agreed that the con-ference taught them many valuable things about their specific area, gave them the opportunity to establish impor-tant connections with record companies and other college stations, and showed them that* in comparison to other college stations, WTAS ranks highly in the areas, of < organization ^ and programming. Overall, the Loyola Radio Conference provided WTAS with concrete ideas and-Information on how to better serve the campus of Hope-College. = ^ : > ' • *- • « rf-

your Head Resident, Chaplain Van Heest, and Joyce Hanlon at the counseling center are some places to start. Also Dr. Michael Henery of Holland, Child and Family Services of Holland, and the Human Resource Center in Grand Rapids could all be of help to the anorectic.

Anorexia is an individual problem, but it is also a community problem. Your help, concern, and interest may be the first step in helping someone liberate herself or himself from this problem.

"I first showed signs of Anorexia in my early teens, when I Just got better and better at dieting. I also became preoc-cupied with exercise. I would start the day at 5 a.m. by running 5 miles, then after school I would run another 5 miles.

"Yet, through all of this I don't remember being hungry, Just tired all the time. By the time I bottomed out at 77 pounds my parents were convinced something was wrong and forced me to go to the doctor. He wouldn't explain to me what Anorexia was, lie just told me that if I didn't eat I was going to die.

"So I ate, and I cried as I ate, thinking how much I hated myself. I eventually peaked at 200 pounds and now my dad was always picking on me for being so fat. This was when Bulimia set in. The cy-cle of hinging and vomiting became set, and I felt out of control. My day began and ended with food on my mind.

"I thought that Hope College was going to be my change from Hell to Heaven because I could make a new start. Instead things got worse; I was scared, alone, and my compulsive habits were too ingrained. I would binge at Western and then go back to the dorm and throw-up everything I had eaten.

, 7 "Except for my roommate who had to put up with my blnglng, vomiting and tempermental moodswings, no one at Hope seemed to notice. People were ad-miring me for being able to eat so much and stay so thin. They couldn't or wouldn't see my misery. Just admire my thinness. When other girls would tell me how lucky I was, I would smile, say 1 had high metabolism, then go back to my room and cry.

"Hope has a lot of surface garbage and I guess I saw it because I so desperately needed some caring. People would casually ask "How are you?",with a sweet smile. But when I would reply that I was not fine and try to talk about it, no one seemed to have the time. People were willing to be friendly as long as I was fine, but when I needed help the students didn't give a damn.

"Finally my roommate got fed up with my behavior and contacted the Head Resident* who contacted the. Health Clinic, t h e administration was super through the whole time that followed. It was finally this realization that people truly cared what happened to me that gaye me the strength to turn away from the depression and Bulimia. ^

Hope for Peqce Dr. Amal Shamma speaks out

by Billy Beaver Israel invaded Lebanon-that Is a fact.

That the U.S. Is morally responsible for that Invasion and the inhumane actions that took place in the invasion is not easi-ly recognized as fact. Nor is it readily ac-cepted that Israel 's invasion was groundless or that It helped Israel In any way. But Dr. Amal Shamma', self-appointed overseer of hospital services In Berbir Hospital of West Beirut, made the claims that the U.S. and its citizens are Indeed morally responsible for the inva-sion and that Israel's invasion was wrong and ineffective.

On Tuesday, November 9, Shamma', sponsored by the Attiyeh Foundation and

by Beth Cooper and Ben Vonk Let's face It. American government has

become the object of countless jokes over the y e a r s . And, as 44I p l edge allegiance..." has been replaced by "Did you hear the one about...", this once great democracy has become a socio-political mess. While we enjoy our laughs, we are destroying our future. When the United States was formed, democracy was a great experiment. It was, some people believed, an inoperable form of govern-ment: anarchy in disguise. Others felt that democracy was a "sugar-coated" aristocracy designed to deceive, and thus appease, its subjects. Whatever the opi-nion, the world was waiting for the failure of the democratic system. They are witnessing now its very slow death.

Nonsense you say? Look at elections of recent times. Incumbent politicians and potential candidates can veritably buy their way into office. In the processes of campaigning millions of dollars are spent on name recognition devices, such as bumper-stickers and billboards, and on television and radio spots to extol the im-peccable traits of one candidate while de-nouncing the despicable traits of another. Party support of candidates has been

dividuals that they have become ignorant of themselves as a society. A nice smile and a successful business record are enough to convince one to vote for a can-didate. Never mind, his position on social issues and his sense of ethics don't really matter. The prevailing attitude has also predetermined the type of choice we so carelessly make. Today's candidates become vocal supporters of personal Ideas rather than' societal goods. We, then, can choose to ally ourselves with that interest, be it Detroit or the Moral Majority, or not vote at all. The latter choice is increasingly popular; the ques-tion is, where do we go from here?

We have two choices. Either we wait until America disintegrates and we have to do something, or we get involved now and become responsible, responsive citizens. We can watch General Hospital and Mash reruns, or we can educate ourselves to the functioning of society that allows us the quantity of leisure time we have. Quality does affects quantity: quality of government will affect quantity of personal time, and hopefully preserve the quality of that time as well. Perhaps in our self-centered society that is the on-

undermined by a nouveau rlche penchant ly rationale that will affect response, but for power/Most candidates have money-they don't need party help, so they don't exhibit party loyalty. We live in an era of *'power to the highest bidder." The result is a fragmented system that is so ponderously slow that it is incapable of reacting to and providing for its people.

The fault ultimately lies with us. As citizens we are pathetically ignorant of our governmental processes and our governors themselves, and w t have forc-ed the decline of a great nation through like one.

Small is not petty Great Ideas frequently evolve from small beginnings: note the

"new" east entrance of Graves Hall. The small but significant suggestion to recycle old stone has led to an improved structure. The size of the idea doesn't matter as long as it is sincere and well thought through. Small criticisms, if delivered correctly, can result in major, positive changes in attitude or product.

But there is another side to smallness: pettiness. Pettiness is trivial. Pettiness is bitchy. Pettiness is something that matters to you, and probably only to you, for today, but probably only for to-day. Pettiness is a chance to tell someone off without any reason, or any hope that anyone or anything will benefit from the advice. Petty is criticizing someone behind his or her back, or complain-ing about Western food without doing anything more constuctive than leaving anonymous comments on the memo board.

Pettiness is a waste of everybody's time and a source of frustra-tion for too many. So before making that helpful suggestion, ques-

tion your motives. Will the suggestion be of benefit to those involv-ed? Will the issue matter tomorrow? next week? next month? Is there value or potential value In the remark or comment, or is It merely a chance to blow off steam or show off your own vastly superior knowledge?

Transcend pettiness. Small does not mean insignificant. But petty does.

International Relations Club Food, food, food

by Debbie Hoetoema What is it that every student loves,

especially if it is home cooked? You guessed it, food. What better gourmet delicacies could you hope to find at Hope College than the world-wide selections represented in the International Rela-tions Club food fair?

Peer ahead into the misty future and imagine that on the fourth of next month, inside our beloved Phelp's cafeteria you are present at a great feast of aromas and delectable foods. "What's that?" you might ask of the prettily costumed girl from Jordon.

To the Editor A time for prayerful conversion

The editorial of a few weeks ago, "Non-conformists needed" really has been gnawing away at my conscience. Yes, I believe It is really true. Not enough is be-ing questioned In my classes. Not enough students are offering their comments and opinions. Too much is being taken for granted. The state of things Is like cutting through meat with a dull knife. Boredom is setting in and a certain setting of oneself to the grind.

I would like to share some of my thoughts on this, inspired by a book I've been reading. With Open Hands, by Henri J. M. Nouwen. Nouwen's response to us as Christians on this campus, in a word, would be to take a look at ourselves. A prayerful look at ourselves. Yes, I am

aware that many people have a problem with prayer. Nouwen responds to this by saying we don't know how to pray because we are fearful. My own response to this Is that If I can't allow God to enter my Innermost heart, then I can't live honestly with other people, myself includ-ed.

I think too many of us walk around campus with our lives clutched to ourselves as possessions-possessions to defend. Maybe this is why we lack in-dividuality in our classes. Maybe this is why we hold back the comments and questions that we dont ask so as not to make waves; we want to keep things run-ning smoothly and looking calm.

I think the article is calling us to a con-

version. We are a Christian college and in no way should we allow ourselves to become established In a situation of passivity and seeming calm, a trap I think we are letting ourselves fall Into. Conformity Is no panacea. Who are we fooling? Christians are to lead lives of "holy unrest", as Henri Nouwen puts It This means that we are Christians only when we believe In the person God has called us to be. Being a Chrlstaln certain-ly does not entail sitting in class assured that one has nothing to say, to offer. This couldn't possibly be true! As Christians we profess to believe in creation. How can a new world be born If we simply let our lives remain on the level of the status

quo? You begin to wonder if there are any Christians. I'd like to leave you with these thoughts along with an excerpt from a prayer Nouwen offers: God give me the courage to be revolu-tionary. As your Son Jesus Christ was, Give me the courage to loosen myself from this world. Teach me to stand up free and to shun no criticism...

Have courage then, make yourself vulnerable, live life as If you have nothing to lose. Dare.

Issue of safety raised To the Editors:

At our last Student Congress meeting some concerns about Public Safety were raised. The concerns seemed to be centered around the following types of in-cidents: I. Response Time-Several complaints were made about Public Safety's lengthy response time to calls. In particular, one student claimed that It took Publlc Safety over 30 minutes to show up after being called about a suspicious looking man wandering around In Ucfaty Hall. 1 tacked Buildings-Many Student Con-gress members have received complaints from students regarding access to buildings at night time. It seems that some students were not aUowed to retrieve a much needed notebook or other potesskm from a locked MMtng (not •ven with a Pubttc Safety Officer escort);

on the other hand some Individuals are apparently allowed to remain after hours In buildings to study. Is there an In-consistency In policy here? 3. Student Attacks-There have been rumors of several Incidents of attacks on students on campus. It is certainly understandable that victims' names be kept confidential. Unfortunately, because of the lack of publicity surrounding these incidents, many students are falsely under the impression that Hope's campus is perfectly safe at night time. What is Public Safety's policy (If any) on release of this sort of information to the student body? 4. Public Safety Tlcketi-A committee has been formed from Student Congress to bear complaints about Pubtte Safety issued violation tickets. Anyone who bas

received a ticket and feels that it Is not deserved should make an appointment through the Dean of Students Office to meet with this committee.

Student Congress will be dealing with these issues by working with Public Safe-ty, the Administration, and the Residen-tial Life Committee. If any student has In-put on this matter, please contact your Student Congress representative.

It Is unfortunate that human nature causes us to usually take action on the few negative incidents In our life. I would like put this issue in perspective by coalmen-tog Public Safety for the exceUent Job tbey have done In the past I am extreme-ly confident that a workable solution will be reached In dealing wtth these pro-blems.

The 51 % Minority GLCA conference attended

by Janet Swim On November 5, 10 students, faculty

and staff from Hope College attended the eighth annual Great Lakes College Association's Women's Studies Con-ference. Participants at the conference were able to analyze, from a feminist perspective, their personal lives and the colleges they attended. The analysis oc-curred in the context of listening to ad-dresses by numerous speakers, discus-sions following the speakers, attending three of 16 possible special topic sessions, and socializing with other participants.

The opening addresses on Friday night recounted the history of the Conference. The first speaker began by reciting the first verse and chorus of a song written by the planning committee of the first con-ference. It began with the line "Back In 1975, when Women's Studies was barely alive..." The speaker then recounted the major advances and struggles made over the last eight years. Learning the history

behind the present conference gave this conference a sense of depth and greater poslbllltles for the future and helped unite the majority of newcomers to the con-ference with the minority who were retur-ning.

Other addresses occured throughout the weekend. One of the most thought pro-voking was by Margaret Mcintosh, the program director of Wellesley College's Center for Research on Women. The title of her talk was "Seeing Our Way Clear: Feminist Re-Vision of the Academy." She spoke of re-examining the college institu-tions we attended from the hierarchical structure present within colleges and the Implications of this structure on student professor relationships and on the emergence of women's studies In col-leges.

After the opening address and Mcin-tosh's speech the participants broke up into preassigned groups In order to

Women and religion in society by Annette Groenink and Liz Grimes In recent years, the feminist movement

has attacked the traditional theology and practices given within the Christian Church. The major thrust of the feminist movement is a cry for equality between the sexes In all realms of life-political, , economic, social and yes, religious.

A critical question for many people in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries has been the contradictions between feminist principles and traditional religious teachings about women. At the recent GLCA Women's SUidies Con-ference, Barbara Zanottl, Etnlcs and In-ternational Relations, Harvard Divinity School, addressed this question and presented the two routes feminists have most commonly followed. These two routes Involve the choice between revi-sion of existing institutional and theological principles of Christianity or a complete rejection of these principles.

For feminists, the revision Is viewed In a context of liberation. It Is an attempt to combine feminism with their traditional religious beliefs. Changes are needed on all levels. On the institutional level, these changes would Involve asserting more ac-tive roles for women in the church pro-per; stressing equality of women in church participation and providing more leadership roles. Feminists stress the im-portance of giving women an identity in the deity by changing the exclusively patriarchal language and imagery with which God Is portrayed. These proposed revisions lead to a questioning of the basic theology of the Church. Christianity throughout history has generally placed women in a subjective and passive role In every aspect of her Christian community-home, work, and play. This passive role has been based throughout the ages on an interpretation of scripture and Biblical tradition. So, a questioning of these roles bcomes in e s sence , ques t ion ing something which has been "divinely-instituted", Zanotti gave examples of feminists who worked on the institutional level or on the theological level, or a com-bination of the two.

She then proposed the alternative to revision: rejection. Basically, this Is a re-jection against the patriarchal nature of Christianity. These feminists are refusing to accept the hierarchical, authoritarian structure of the Church and it's exclusive-ly male misogynist theology. Here, feminists find their spiritual fulfillment by seeking out new forms of religion to ex-press and emphasize women and women's experiences. These new forms of religion may include adopting new spiritual forms such as wicca or goddess worship, the recovery of rituals, and discovering and reinterpreting a buried history of* Amazons and matriarchal heritage. This can be viewed as the an-tithesis of our more traditional patriar-chal form of Christianity In that women would now be seen In the forefront of the basic theological Ideas and activities.

Although these two groups of feminists seek different options as a way to remedy their conflicting political and religious beliefs, certain similarities exist between the revisionlng feminists and the rejec-ting ones. Both groups direct their primary support towards women. They place great value on the history of women (herstory), as well as the diversity and experiences of women. And, perhaps most Importantly, both groups seek to end patriarchal dominance within the church.

familiarize everyone with the general Issues to be discussed throughout the con-ference, to discuss reactions to the speakers and to meet other conference participants. These sessions and the In-formal talks throughout the conference were one of the most valuable aspects of the conference. The Interactions pointed out the wide range of feminist viewpoints of individuals and of the Institutions they represented. For Instance, there were people who had been In the women's movement since the 1960's and those who were encountering feminism In depth for the first time at this conference. There were also differences In types of feminists. There were radicals, conser-vatives, seperatlsts, humanists. Chris-tians, and many others. The colleges the people came from extended from ones like Hope which has one feminist organization and no Women's Studies department to ones that have a Women's Studies department and more than one active feminist organization.

The special topic sessions dealt with personal, social, and academic Issues. For Instance, personal, social and academic Issues. For Instance, personal examinations occurred in the session en-

titled "It 's Great to be Female: What to ^ do When it Doesn't Feel Like it." Social 8 Issues were discussed in the session en- ^ titled "Broaching the Issue: Racism." ** Finally, academic Issues were considered In the session "Teaching Critical Con-sciousness: Examining Another Truth ' of the Academic Tradition."

The conference was more than lectures and discussions; there were also times for entertainment. For example, a per-formance was given by Womenshlne, a new type of square dancing was tried which does not require couples, and games could be learned which emphasiz-ed cooperation instead of competition.

The conference provided an awakening to those who had had little contact with the spectrum of feminism and Women's Studies. For those who were already knowledgable about feminist Issues, the conference provided a time to be with others who were concerned with and eager to confront and discuss similar Issues. Those Hope students who attended the conference this year and last year hope to be able to share the knowledge gained to Hope's campus and to affect changes on this campus.

Finally I thought, 4,North, south, east., oh, no! , ,-but by that time it was too late; I had missed them I apologized to him later and expressed my disappolntment-1 had been looking so forward to eating with him. He seemed almost as sad as I was-and deeply apologetic that they had left without me. Then a week later, I received a letter post-marked San Francisco, California--a hand-written note from Zare expressing his regret that they had left without me and that he "will always carry a picture" of me "standing alone in the bitter cold." (You can tell he is from California-it was only about 32 degrees), I can't adequately express how touched I was that he would even remember me-to say nothing about sending me a note.

A creative and poetic lecturer. Zare succeeds in making his presentations understandable and tangible. He com pared electrons swimming around two comparatively huge protons to flies swar-ming around two yoked oxen. As the oxen slowly change their position, the flies ac-comodate so quickly that the difference in time of the movements is barely detectible-and so it is with electrons and protons. This is important in understan-ding the Franck-Condon Principle. Zare obviously enjoys using these analogies; "Just wait till we get to the garbage cans later," he laughed. When he spoke to the physical chemistry class, he used a foot-ball to demonstrate how elipsold-shaped molecules will have a polarllzed spln-a

spin exclusively around one axls-when they bounce off a surface. These images are extremely valuable In comprehen-ding a technical and difficult concept-ln physical chemistry, a picture Is worth a thousand formulas.

On Thursday. November 4, Zare gave a fascinating lecture during community hour. He described the use of laser spec-troscopy in the detection of aflatoxlns-a mold which grows on grain and, as the most potent of know carcinogens, causes liver cancer. In Uganda where the grain harvest is left out in the rain, the cancer-rate death is very high. As Zare pointed out, though, more people are dying of starvation than anatoxins and we are sur-rounded by carcinogens-every breath we take and bite we eat is contaminated with potential cancer-causing materials. This raises the issue of the role of technology in soclety -what problems should It focus on?

Throughout the lecture he used his laser as a convenient, effective pointer-it gets to all those hard-to-reach places on the screen. He explained that very small amounts of florescing molecules, in con-centrations as low as parts per million, can be detected by laser spectroscopy. Laser spectroscopy, thus, promises to have many exciting and Important ap-plications to modern medicine as an ex-tremely sensitive "detective."

RIA in the analysis of small concentra-tions of chemicals, but many times the concentrations of biochemical molecules which need to be detected-for Instance, Insulin-are too small for detection with RIA, unless higher radioactivities of Iodine are used. But neither the patient, doctor, or anyone In contact with radioac-tive iodine is too excited about that idea. Zare's technique, which he calls LFIA (Laser Florescence Immonoassay) would work faster and more sensitively without radioisotopes. "We are entering the age of rational medicine," he said. This is an age where we will rationally fit the cure to the disorder Instead of a trial-and-error method of developing cures. One application of LFIA would be detec-tion of the deficiency of essential biochemicals in the brains of new-born in-fants before mental retardation occurs-in time for their mental faculties to be p r e s e r v e d with t r e a t m e n t . The possibilities are endless. Science is still a frontier.

Hope College Is on that frontier, and the visit of such an adventurous pioneer as Zare gives us a vision of the horizon. Zare is not just applying, he's revolutionizing. "He is a person who has thought about fundamental questions that many students In freshmen chemistry would think are dumb and yet he's found In these questions areas of further in-vestigation which typify progress In science," Dr. Doyle observed "We couldn't have been better pleased. He

represented areas of expertise relatively uncommon and yet ones that every responsible person should be thinking about." How can the value Influence of Zare's visit be measured? He flew back to California with a pair of wooden shoes and left the students and faculty In the chemistry department at a higher energy level than when he greeted them.

ed "they were scared," upon the PLO's pullout. "Who will defend us?" she heard them ask. Now that the PLO Is gone, those militant groups on the side of the Muslims are small and disorganized. In light of the recent refugee camp massacres, Shamma' says, they truly do feel a very real fear.

The point of Shamma's talk was that "foreign policy is not a game of nations-It effects people," and that "one doesn't have to experience war to know that war Is horrible." The film shown afterward. "Report From Beirut: Summer of ;821" expressed these points very graphically. Shamma's explanation and viewpoint is different from the usual viewpoints ex-pressed In U.S. papers. But she was there, she should know how horrible that war was. And Its causes and outcomes? They will be debated for years to come, with no probable definitive answer. Never-theless, the U.S. cannot Ignore her laments concerning the war nor her, and others', accusations that the U.S. Is responsible for the war and should recon-sider Its policies In the Middle East.
