Student Congress suggests, Board of Trustees approves student aciivities fee increase by C a r r i e M a p l e s
a s s o c i a t e e d i t o r
On the r c c o m m c n d a l i o n of
Student C o n g r e s s , the Board of
Trus tees has raised the S tuden t
Activities Fee from $60 to $64 for
the 1991-92 school year.
The acuvities fee was last raised
for the 1989-90 school year ( f rom
$40 to $60) and has since remained
the same. This four dollar increase
per person will increase income for
S tuden t C o n g r e s s by r o u g h l y
$10,000 for the year.
Wi l l i am Ander son , vice
president for business and f inance,
said all of the income from the
Student Activit ies Fee is used by
Student Congress to fund campus
organizat ions like the a/ic/ iorand
WTHS.
Joe Miklosi ('92), vice president
of Student Congress , said the 6.7
percent increase was instituted for
three mam reasons; inflation, five
new campus organizat ions which
have asked Student Congress for
funding and ihc expanding budgets
oi cxistinu organizations.
The increase was dehateo ana
passed during ihc Jan. 17 meeting
of Sludem Congress. The proposal
was on the agenda lor the meeting
and nad been discussed .viih Anne
B a k k e r - G r a s , s tudent ac t iv i t i es
director.
In explaining the haste involved
Miklosi said, "The principle was,
the Board of Trustees was meeting
the next week. Due to the time
factor, I felt we made a responsible
decision."
"We had to set is that day
otherwise we couldn't set it," said
S tuden t C o n g r e s s C o m p t r o l l e r
James O 'Nei l . He said since the
Board of Trustees sets the College
budget on their first meeting the
rccommcndal ion had to oe before
ihc Board to receive approval.
Anderson said the Board of
Trustees passed the increase when
they met Friday, Jan. 25.
"As far as I'm concerned that's
totally a student decis ion. They
s imply made a request and we
approved it," he said.
The five new organ iza t ions ;
A C E R T , E n v i r o n m e n t a l I s sues
Organization, PRIDE, Students for
Christ and Friends for the Ethical
Treatment of Animals (FETA) have
all been approved by the Campus
Life Board and can legi t imately
request Student Congress funding.
'As far as I'm concerned that's totally a student decision. They simply made a request and we approved it.'

Overall. I wish w e d had more
time to contact consti tuents but I
think S tudent C o n g r e s s repre-
sentatives are pretty well in touch
with their c o n s t i t u e n t s , " sa id
Miklosi.
The only member of Student
Congress to oppose the increase
was Tim Grotenhuis ( '92) but his
objections were that he believed the
fee should be increased at a higher
rate
"1 wanted it (the Activities Fee)
up to Sl() because I feel if Student
C o n g r e s s had more money to
allocate to S A C they could bring in
h igher qual i ty e n t e r t a i n m e n t , "
Groienhuis said.
"We did not want to have such a
large jump," said O'Neil.
Dr. Dennis Voskuil , professor
of religion and member of the Board
of Trustees, said the issue came up
as part of the d i scuss ion about
increasing fees in general . "This
was something Student Congress
had asked for," he said.
The increase is intended to cover
the added budgets for next year
while maintaining the budgets for
exist ing organiza t ions . "It should
cover the new budgets," O'Neil said
"We are trying to keep what we
have now." said O'Neil, referring to
the quality of student organizations
and ac t i v i t i e s . " W e have no
intentions right now of bringing in
any large groups (to entertain)."
Student reac t ions seemed to
indicate approval of the increase or
at least to lerance. "Four dollars

"I don't do that much. For me
to be paying $64 for activities I do
not chose to participate in due to

doesn ' t make sense to me," said
Nicole Mueller (*93).

Off-campus permission depends on timeiy application by Carr ie M a p l e s
assoc ia te edi tor
There has been some confusion
on the part of s tuden t s about
apply ing for o f f - c a m p u s housing
permission.
For students who wish to move
off c a m p u s next year, for either
s e m e s t e r , t h e o f f - c a m p u s
appl icat ion will be sent out with
general housing information in mid-
February. This application is due
March 14.
"It 's rea l ly impor t an t that
people apply on time," said Derek
Emerson, director of housing.
S t u d e n t s a p p l y i n g wi th 70
c red i t h o u r s or more will be
automatically receive permission to
move o f f -campus . Then students
who have fewer than 70 hours will
be considered de-pending on the
number of spaces to fill in campus
housing.
"1 don ' t honest ly an t ic ipa te
going below 70. It could, but I try
to be honest with students," said
Emerson.
Because this year's grad-uaung
class is very large and nearly 55
percent live on-campus, there will
be a large number of open spaces in
c ampus hous ing . Accord ing to
E m e r s o n , this will a f f e c t the
number of students with fewer than
70 hours who receive permission.
"Hope is a residential school .
'Hope in the Future' (a p lanning
report) would like to increase this,"
Emerson said. The goal in keeping
s tudents , espec ia l ly upper c lass
students, on-campus is to create a
support communi ty , according the
repor t This sense of communi ty is
thought to be beneficial for first-
year s t uden t s and s o p h o m o r e s
because they can turn to o lder
students for help and advice.
"When you're living on-campus
y o u ' r e pa r t of the c a m p u s
community," said Emerson.
Students with special reasons
for r eques t ing o f f - c a m p u s per-
mission should submit those reason
in wri t ing, said Emerson. If the
reasons are considered valid the
student will be called in to discuss
the s i tuat ion with Emerson and
wi th R i c h a r d Fros t , d e a n of
students.
"Most people who say they
want off for financial reasons don't
show that need," said Emerson. He
commented that some students list
this problem as a reason but have
never applied for financial aid.
Emerson said there will be
some changes in campus housing.
In some apar tments and cot tages
there will be reduct ions because
they arc "overbooked." The overall
percentage of on-campus students
will remain the same.
Education students satisfy many requirements
by Carr ie Maples
a s soc ia t e ed i tor
The educa t ion depar tment .is
one of the larges t on c a m p u s .
There are certification programs at
the elementary and secondary level
along with the special educat ion
program.
"In order to be a teacher there
are certain requirements established
by the s ta te of Mich igan ," said
chairperson of the depar tment . Dr.
Lamont Dirkse. The state requires
a 30-hour academic major or for
elementary certif ication a 36-hour
c o m p o s i t e m a j o r . A 20 -hou r
minor is also required.
Education is considered a pre-
professional program like nursing
or engineering. "The reason," said
Dirkse, "education is considered a
prc-professional program, students
have lo fulfill the requirements for
t e a c h e r t r a i n i n g and t h e s e
requi rements are a lso part iculary
dictated by the state department of
ed-ucation."
These requirements include as
many hours in education as in most
majors. For secondary certification
it is 29 hours while for elementary
it is 34.
The state requires classes in
four specif ic areas: human growth
and deve lopment ; me thodo logy ;
clinical experience; and a class with
h i s t o r i c a l , p h i l o s o p h i c a l or
sociological implications.
"We don't want our people to
jus t h a v e m e t h o d o l o g y , " said
Dirkse. An expertise in a specific
area is desired.
The education department has
an application process unique to prc-
p r o f e s s i o n a l p r o g r a m s . " All

Hope theatre student returns early from London IV S r n t t A a Iilf rknan . . J • I by Scot t A. K a u k o n e n

permission to attend the British-
American Drama Acadcmy in
London. Scott Mellema (*92) has
returned home early. With the war
in the Persian Gulf and Saddam
Hussein's threats of a war of
terrorism, Mellema weighed the
possibilities and decided, "better
safe, than sorry."
Mellema, a theatre major, was
attending the Academy as part of a
trial program to provide off-campus
study opportunit ies for Hope
theatre students. According to
Mel lema, on his first day in
London, there was a "huge
demonstration" in Regents Park,
just across from his apartment. "It
was an Arab demonstration about
the Gulf. They were burning
flags," said Mellema. "It made me
jumpy, but I didn't think anything of it.
"I went to see Ms. Saigon. On
my way, I stopped lo ask for

walking, he continued and came up
and slopped me and started shouting
that the U.S. shouldn't be involved
(in the Persian Gulf.)
Within about 20 minutes ,
Mel lema said similar incidents
happened twice more, once with a
man shout ing in a language
Mel lema could not understand.
According to Mellema, in all three
ins tances the men appeared Arabian.
Mellema decided it would be best to

"They're trying to be normal , but

said Mellema. "Some of the
younger people were against it."
The program remains open lo

graduate s c h o o l . For now,
Mellema is taking six hours of
classes at Hope and working part-time.
Said Mellema. "I have nothing

Phelps cooks up contest •WAR WIRE
by Scott A. Kaukonen news editor
Rarely are the words. "This
tastes just like Mom's" heard in
Phelps Cafeteria. But with a home
recipe contest underway. Feb. 28
could be the day when this phrase is uttered.
In an attempt to give students a
chance for input into the food they
eat , the Food Se rv ices , in
con junc t ion with the Student
Congress, has introduced a contest
for home recipes. Food Services is
currently accepting entries and will
continue to do so until February 15.
"Wc wanted to let students have
input into what they're eating, "
said Don Hershey , who is
Education Continued from P. 2
taking further education classes.
Three evaluations from professors
are required. Candidates for the
d e p a r t m e n t mush ach ieve a
min imum score on the Pre-
professional Skills Test (PPST)
before being accepted.
Upon submitting an app-
lication. cach applicant's folder
comes before the education
department for evaluation. Along
with the professor evaluations.
PPST score and minimum GPA of
2.5. the department evaluated the
candidate on the basis of
responsibility, interpersonal skills,
enthusiasm and genuine interest in
teaching. The application is
approved, denied or held for a period
of time for an improvement in GPA or PPST.
overseeing the contest for Food
Services.
Up to seven winning dishes
will be selected, including three
main entrees, a desert, a salad, and a
soup. The winning dishes will be
served at dinner on Feb. 28.
According to Hershey, the
judging panel will be made up of
members of Student Congress '
Food Service Committee, managers
and employees of Phelps and Hershey.
The criteria include taste,
acceptability, ease of preparation,
and popularity. Hershey cited that
while some en t r i e s may be
excellent meals, they may not
translate well into bulk cooking.
Ihc winning meals will have to be
prepared for 700 people.
Cost of preparation will be a
factor as well, "if it's a recipe for
lobster," said Hershey. "But if u s
reasonable. Cost is less important
than how it translates into bulk cooking."
If the dishes go over well, there
is the possibility that they could
become a part of the regular meal
plan.
Food Services and the Student
Congress arc looking into prizes,
according to Hershey, though they
have not been finalized.
The idea has been tried with
some success at Calvin. Student
Congress picked up on the idea and
brought the idea to Food Services.
This year approximately 120
s t u d e n t s will r ece ive the i r
certification in one of the three
areas. Those with special education
cer t i f i ca t ion m a j o r e i ther in
learning disabilities or in emotional
impaired studies.
"All students who receive a
certificate in spccial education are
qualified to teach in an elementary
classroom too." Dirkse said.
Four years ago a special
program was started by hiring three
teachers who teach mornings in
public schools and afternoons at
Hope - one in each area
"What makes that such an
interesting program is that they are
on the firing line - teaching in the
schools - then they come here and leach." said Dirkse.
If a student decides during their
first or second year that they want
to go into education they can
usually finish the program in four years," said Dirkse.
Sometimes there are problems
for students who decide later and
they may require an additional
semester. There are occasionally
difficulties getting into education
classes during registration but
Dirkse puts this down to the fact
that "about one-fourth of the
student population is going into education."
The department has 11 full-
time facul ty members and
additional 15 part-time staff members.
National student boycott fails (CPS) - A national student boycott to protest the war never even made it lo the planning stage.
Announced by theNational Student and Youth Campaign for Peace
in the middle East for Jan. 22. the demonstration - in which students
were supposed to stay out of class for a day - was never publicized.
Group organizers now say they'll meet Jan. 27 to discuss if they should try a boycott.
Police break up UCLA sit-in (CPS) - University of California at Los Angeles anti-war students
wanted UCLA to declare a one-day class moratorium as a condition of
giving up a sit-in at the campus administration building. The sit-in was broken up jan. 22 by police.
About 500 University of California at Santa Barbara students also
asked for a one-day class boycou during a Jan. 16 demonstration.
Delegation returns before war (CPS) -- SL Cloud Stale University Minister Linda Gesiing, who led
an intcrfaith delegation of students from various colleges on a last-
minute "peace mission" to Iraq Jan. 10, returned to Minnesota Jan. 22
noting that her group escaped only hours before bombs started to fall on Baghdad Jan. 16.
Clesling and her group of students were hustled out of iraq and into
Jordan just before the Amman airport closed. "We realized we came
back to a country that was going to war." she reports.
'Counter demonstrators'take over (CPS) - As the first week of war wore on, "counter demonstrators"
seemed to lake over campus streets from the anti-war activists who poured out of their rooms when the bombing started.
Crowds ranging from ICQ to 6.000 waved U.S. flags, burned Iraqi
flags, chanted pro-war slogans and played martial music at the
University of Arizona, at Ohio Sale. Cornell and new York universities
as well as at off-campus demonstrations in Indianapolis. San Francisco.
Oklahoma City and New York, among other places.

As members of the U.S.
Reserved Forces, Hope students
-Dave Slates, Kelly Powers and
#Scou Venema have received
military training and could be called
Vn at any time to serve in the Gulf
,war.
Dave Slates ('91), 21, is from
'Nilcs , Michigan. He joined the
.Army National Guard two years
ago. He said he decided to join so
'he could be in a unit with his
•father, who has served in the Guard
for 15 years.
Slates belongs to the 1/246
Armored, which trains in Dowagiac.
Michigan. He trains one weekend a
month and two full weeks during
summer. He received basic training
and also learned survival skills.
Kelly Powers ( ^ l ) , 23, is from
Muskegon, Michigan. He is part of
the Individual Ready Reserves of the
Air Force. He said he joined
because he had always wanted to
fly.
Powers entered the U.S. Air
Force Acadcmy in Colorado
Springs, Colorado in 1986, where
he attended for three years. He
learned to fly gliders and single-
engine aircraft, and also learned
basic ground maneuvers. After
attending the Academy, he came lo
Hope, where he is in education.
Scott Venema ('93), 20, is from
Portage, Michigan. He joined the
Michigan Army National Guard
about a year ago because he was
interested in geuing money for his
education. He trained to be a medic
because he wanted a well-rounded
education, Venema received medical
training and is licensed to drive an
ambulance.
None of the three knows for
sure if he will be called up to serve,
but all of them arc ready. Slates said lie first realized he

K u w a i t When the war started, he
began to feel "kind of scared" since
he didn't know if he would be sent
or where he would go, but he knew
he was ready. "I feel I was ready
then, and I feel I'm ready now,"
Powers , who is part of the
Ready Reserves, doesn't have a unit
now, bul would be assigned to one
if he were called up. He has mixed
feelings about serving in active
duty but says he is ready to go if
needed.
"I feel an obligation towards my
country bul at ihc same lime I have
obligations here... nobody wants lo
really go over there. . .bul if I'm
called lo serve thai s whal I'll do."
Venema doesn't expect his unii
lo be called any time soon since his
is in the last medical unii in the
stale bul if he is called he will serve
as a medic in ihc front lines.
"I'm not really nervous aboul il
yet. If I gel called up. I'll go, just
like thai...I'm ready."
Because ihcy arc in the
Reserves, Venema and the others
would have to leave school before
ihc end of ihc semester if called up,
bul they would receive a refund
from the school. They could be
stationed in ihc Middle Hast, Europe
or elsewhere.
Slates, Powers and Venema
strongly support the U.S. troops
and hope others do ihe same. They
also commented that those in the
military, like everyone else, long
for peace.
"We want peace more than
anybody," Slates said.
"I'm happy to see a lot of
support," said Venema. He said he
felt a quick strike by the U.S. is the
only way to finally get peace.
The day the war siarted, Slates
and Venema attended a support rally
for the troops, held by the Vietnam
Veterans Administration.
Venema said that in basic
training, he didn't expect thai he
would ever have lo serve in active
duly.
"When 1 joined, the Cold War
was over and everything looked very
good. The chancc of us going into
combat looked very sl im. Now, I
think about ii all the time."
And Slates said, "It's hard going
lo classes with the thought of war
hanging over your head."
All three have friends already in
the Gulf , many of whom they met
in basic training. They said their
o w n f r i e n d s and f a m i l y arc
concerned but supportive.

B m s c H ( & ^ r # l e n s eaiisbaGkl Four Hope dance, theater students tryout; are put on waiting list for summer shows by S h a r o n Roebuck
stafT writer
Four Hope Col lege s tudents
recently received letters informing
them that they were on a waiting
list as possible performer for Busch
Gardens in Williamsburg, Virginia.
After seeing an advertisement
for Busch Garden's auditions on the
Dow dance s tud io doo r , Chr i s
Beaslcy ('92), Annette Cseri ('94),
Enid Hutchinson ('92) and James
Hymcs (*92) decided to go for i t

auditions were held. Beaslev, Csen
" Three hundred dollars a week in
theatre, for a col lege s tudent is
really good," said Hymes. But they
also added that the experience was
part of the reason, too.
"This is a big national audit ion
where they go to New York and
Dallas. Houston and Chicago and
all over the nation. So, we thought
it'd really be a good experience to
try to audi t ion on the nat ional
level," said Bcasley.
According to Hymes, there was
not a large turnout. "Usually (at)
aud i t ions like that, hundreds of
people go," he said. Hutchinson
c o m p e t e d with only four other
dancers, the rest were either actors
or singers. The reason for the small

and Hymcs mainly audit ioned for
acting parts (with the exception of

piece). Hutchinson audi t ioned for

said.
When asked what inspired them
to try out for Busch Gardens , all
said that the $300 weekly salary for
per formers was a great incentive.

turnout might be attr ibuted to the
fact that it was Busch Garden's first
time in Ann Arbor.
As for the actual audi t ion
procedures, the actors were put in
by g r o u p s of 10. T h e y each
pe r fo rmed two mono logues they
had prepared themselves.
Hutchinson sang first in her
audition and then danced a one- to
two-minute piece she had prepared.
All four were told r ight af ter
their pe r fo rmance whether they
were to "come back" or not. All
four made call backs. Hutchinson
was one of two dancers to make it.
They waited until 4p .m. for the
second half of auditions where they
w e r e e i ther g iven a sc r ip t to
perform with a partner if they were
ac to r s , or qu ick ly learned and
per formed a dance routine if they
were dancers.
"1 was kind of shocked because,
usual ly, they don't tell you right
away whether they want you in call
backs, they just post a list. Bul this
l ime they told us r ight away , "
Beasley said.
Cser i . who sang an opere t ta
dur ing her audi t ion said, "I was
surpr ised that ( the judges ) were
m o r e in te res ted in my ac t ing ,
ac tual ly . I don' t have ihe act ing
experience that Jim and Chris (do)."

"I just felt like 'this is me, this
is what I have of myself and I'm
going to go in there and do the best
that I can. . . this is it. It's now or
never ' ," said Hutchinson of her
audition.
Hymcs added, "Auditioning is
so nerve- racking , or can be. It's
good to be able lo put that aside, to
feel relaxed about going into the
audi t ion and just do ing it and
feeling good aboul it."
The four awaited the results of
their call backs for at least two
m o n t h s . T h e y r e c e i v e d the i r
answers around the third week of
January and learned that they had all
made the waiting list. The letter
in fo rmed them they were not
se lected for the f irs t team but ,
should a per former get injured or
sick or s imply can not be on the
team, those on the wait ing list
will be rotated up. "I think being
on the reserve list is jus t great ,"
H y m e s sa id , "That says a lot
because I know they see thousands
of people."
When asked whal advice each
would give to potential per formers,
each had words of confidence and
wisdom.
^ e a s l e y : "I think the most
important thing about audit ioning
is the right frame of mind. Theater 's
- * always how good you are, but
•v you look, how you would fit a
rt. T h e r e ' s no point ge t t ing
v o u s or upset.. . that's the way
the g a m e (is) p layed. S o just
smile...and say thanks, I'll be back
next year."
Cseri: "The first few seconds
you're up there, it's very important.
That's the first impression they get.
You have to really have self-esteem
and a very posit ive attitude. You
should audition every occasion you
can get. If you're interested in it
you should do it."
Hutchinson: "If you don't make
it, it's not because you aren't good
enough, it's because they don't need
your specific abilities and/or have a
certain look in mind. Don' t get
d i s cou raged - i f you have the will,
you WILL make it."
Hymes: "It's a hard thing to
do. Usually you have two minutes
to sell yourself -- lo show what you
can do. The more you do it, the
beucr you gel at it. Don't expeel to
gel work at every audition you go
to. You (have) lo remember that
there are ihou-sands of people out
there that look just like you and can
do exactly what you can do. You
just have to hope thai someone out
there will see whal you have, whal
it is that makes you YOU, what
separa tes you f rom those other
thousands."

Guest prof focuses on prophets
by J i l l S a n d o r
s ta f f w r i t e r
Dr. James La Grand, a visiting
professor al Hope , is leaching
Biblical Prophecy and Religion in
Society ihis semester.
La Grand was bom and raised in
Grand Rapids. He attended Calvin
and Yale, and has lived in England,
Nigeria and Switzerland.
La Grand's course in Biblical
Prophesy focuses on the lives and
teachings of the Old Tes tament
prophets. The class is challenged lo
sec how Bib l i ca l p r o p h e s y
cont inues lo be fulf i l led lo the
present.
"I f i n d il e n o r m o u s l y ,
constant ly surpr is ing lo see ihe
immediate relevance of this s tuff ,
and ihe students do loo," La Grand
said.
La Grand noted that the original
meaning of "prophet" in Hebrew is
"herald" or "shoulcr," not a predictor
of future events. The main role of
Ihe prophets was in the moral and
ethical teachings they conveyed to
the people. "Jesus is the prophet par
excellence," he said.
Recently ihe class studied the
prophet Amos and La Grand talked
aboul ihe special relevance of this
prophet for the present day. Amos
spoke a g a i n s l the i n j u s t i c e s
committed by the people and the
atrocity of those who worshiped God
in hypocracy.
"You can't miss the connections
when you read Amos," La Grand
said. "He is the Voice of the Hour."
In Amos 5:24, the prophet
proclaimed, "Lei justice flow like a
s tream, and r ighteousness like a
river." These words were also used
by Martin Luther King Jr. in his '1
have a dream' speech.
La Grand also leaches Religion
in Society. This course looks at the
history and origin of religio.i, and
offers a survey of different types of
r e l i g i o n . T h e f o c u s is on
Christianity and how its teachings
affeel the lives of people today.
The class also studies Islam, a
powerful religion wilh a far-reaching
effect in the world today. La Grand
said that the study of Islam is
especially relevant for today because
of the events in the Middle East and
because of the widespread prejudices
against Muslims.
La Grand makes his students
aware that religious forces do not
always function for good, as shown
by the Spanish Inquisition and the
Islamic Jihad. But he emphasizes
that religion is a powerful and vital
force in ihe world today.
"Religion is a much bigger
force than is usually acknowledged
in the news media. You hardly ever
see references in detail lo religious
observances in newspapers . You
hardly even know if senators are
Catholic or Muslim or Jewish," said
La Grand.
La Grand is very pleased with
student response in his classes. "I
am impressed with Hope students.
They seem very ready lo listen and
learn, and ready lo reevaluate their
initial pos i t ion . . . . Somet imes I
learn as much from my students as
they learn from me."
La Grand a t tended Calvin
College, where he worked as editor
of 'Chimes,' the college newspaper.
He attended Hope's Vienna Summer
S c h o o l p r o g r a m , h i s f i r s t
involvement wilh Hope.
La Grand did graduate work al
the University of Michigan and got
his Master of Divinity from Yale
University. He received his doctorate
in Basel, Switzerland.
La Grand was ordained as a
minis te r al G a r f i e l d Chr i s t i an
Reformed Church in Chicago. He
spenl five years working in the inner
city, an experience that made a deep
impression on him.
La Grand also taught for two
years at Saint Paul's College, Zairia,
Nigeria.

Editorial
Student Congress railroads activities fee increase
Il docsn'l seem like much. In facl il's jusi S4 dollars. Bul ihe
method behind ihe Sludenl Congress ' suggesting lo ihc Board of
Trustees thai the student activity fee be raised was nothing short of a
ripoff. (See story, Page 1.)
Certainly, the student body should be outraged at this most recent
example of flippant behavior.
In the first place, the proposal was railroaded through Student
Congress, ignoring all standard democratic practices. Put on the
agenda, discussed and voted upon all in one meeting. Cabinet member
and Comptroller James O'Neil "can't remember" if anyone outside the
Cabinet even knew about the proposal before the meeting. Brad
Votava, president, said only Student Activities Director Anne Bakker-Gras knew.
Student Congress representatives certainly didn't know -- the item
appeared on the agenda that was handed out when they arrived at the
meeting. Obviously, then, such a procedure made it impossible for
representatives to ask the student body for a reaction to the increase.
And it wasn't the case wherein this was the first meeting of the
year in which the proposal could have been introduced. Instead, the
Cabinet members and representatives spent the previous week's meeting
testing the food service's pizza quality.
Secondly, Student Congress can't legitimately say that they need
the money. As of this semester, they had a budget surplus of 326,000.
Of that money, $1,750 went to three of the new groups. (Two,
FETA and ACERT. have not yet received funding.) Another $1,650
went lo WTHS and $2,500 went towards the anchor's new computer
system. That totals $5,900.
That means Student Congress is currently sitting on $20,! 00.
Rather than be fiscally responsible, Congress is planning to blow
the money at the end of the year. Cabinet members are saying they
expect to spend the surplus on a May Day concert -- an estimated $9,000 to $10,000.
Thirdly, rarely does a group of public officials arrive at such
skewed conclusions about their motives. Purportedly, the increase will
merely "keep up with inflation." If this is the case, how does
Congress expect to cover any new funding, much less any increased
demands from current groups? Additionally, the funding is tied to the
number of students. If. as O'Neil suggested, the trend is toward lower
enrollments, why didn't the organization ask for a larger increase? Then
il was reported that the Board of Trustees initialed the increase. They
didn't. They merely passed what the Student Congress asked them to approve.
After running an election which couldn't be verified as
legitimate, after being accused of sexism, one wonders just how
cognizant the members of the Cabinet are of the student body and of
appropriate behavior as elected officials.
Undoubtedly, the representatives who sit on the Congress should
have refused to vote on the measure until they had time to contact their constituents.
But wilh such recurring, blatant disregard for proper procedure, it is
t ime for some overs ight of the Cabinet to be included in the, constitution. Several level-headed representatives should be appointed
lo executive committee positions, requiring them to participate in all Cabinet decision-making activities.
All levels of government have procedures to check on public
officials, eliminating their ability to wreak havoc on the people they
serve. It is lime for such a check to be placed on Hope's Cabinet -
before they again pass off phony goods to the student body.

Letters to the Editor
anchor review needs greater depth Dear Editor,
This letter is in response lo
Scott A. Kaukonen's article. "Arab,
American cultures clash in movie."
Whi le I am not de fend ing nor
condoning the harsh treatmeni thai
the woman (and her child) in the
movie received, I have several
problems with the article. First of
all, the author simply makes the
statement that "it is not an anti-
Arab movie" and does not say why
it isn't. I would agree with his
content ion that the movie "Not
Without My Daughter" is not an
anti-Arab movie in the technical
sense. I say this because Iranians
are not Arabs. However. I can see
why Arabs and Arab-Amcricans
would be concerned with this movie
because, like the author of the
article, most people do not realize
that there is a difference between
Arabs and Iranians. However, I
would characterize this an anti-
Iranian movie and as such, the
viewer must beware - of the kinds
of stereotypes our movies and our
media portray aboul other cultures,
r e l i g i o n s and o the r p e o p l e s .
Kaukonen notes that the main
Iranian character in the movie
"never develops beyond a one-
d i m e n s i o n a l c h a r a c t e r . " As
thinking people, we must question
why the first major movie released
in America portraying an Iranian
person p resen t s him as "one-
d i m e n s i o n a l " and e s s e n t i a l l y ,
stereotyped.
I am concerned abou l the
notions of Islam, and of Arabs and
Iranians that this movie engenders
in many minds. As people whose
government is involved in a war in
the Middle East -- now -- of all
times - we must be careful to seek
out the whole truth about the
Middle East and must not let
ourselves be misled by visions on the big screen.
Respectfully submiued,

To the Hope College community:
By now, many or most of
your are aware of the fate which has
b e f a l l e n the K n i c k e r b o c k e r
Fraternity. We have been stripped
of out charter for a period of two
years and had severe restrictions
placed upon our reorganizat ion
attempts, if they ever occur. We
fought long and hard to save our
c o m m u n i t y a g a i n s t an
overwhelming ly biased judic ia l
system, but our efforts fe l l short.
In those efforts, we were aided
and comforted by backing from the
A l p h a G a m m a P h i a n d
Cosmopolitan organization and we
would like to heartily thank them
and all of our other friends for their
kind words and letters of support.
Converse ly , we would l ike lo
heartily not thank all the rest of
you out there whose stood by

the other organization on campus.
maybe its better that we leave now
anyway. Most of all, we would
like lo not thank those people who
not only chose to depledge, but also
felt the need to bring down our

me: "What did you do yesterday?"
"I built a snowman."
"Don't you mean a snowperson?"
"Snowperson? Whal do you mean?"
"Well did you build a snowpenis on

Jazz icnor saxophonis t Tom
Christenscn joined ihc John Shea
and Bob Thompson Jazz Quarlci
Monday night in the Knickerbocker
Theatre.
Chns iensen also played with
lhe Hope College Jazz Ensemble
and brought an energy lo ihem lhat
ihcy were lacking for the first ihree
numbers.
After the Ja/v Ensemble's five
: -ng opening set. the Quartet look
t e s t a g e to p lay o n e of
C rislensen's original songs called
"Or Not." For the Quanel ' s hour
set, Thompson alternated with the
fluglc horn and a trumpet. Shea lit
up the p iano and Elgin Vines
jammed on the bass. Paul Smith
rounded out the Quartet on the
drums.
Thompson admit ted thai lhe
Quartet had only played together on
lhe first two songs which they had
played at the recording studio in
ft'and Rapids where Thompson is
preparing a compac t disc called
"Parallels." Chnsiensen contribuled
some saxophone tracks for the disc
during the weekend.
The lack of practice together on
the songs lent a spontaneity to the
free performance. All the members
seemed to be thoroughly enjoying
themselves.
Shea played the piano with an
intensity and a joy lhat set ihe tone
for the Quartet's entire performance.
Chrisiensen and Thompson soon
caught onto Shea's fun.
A highpoint of the sel was
T h o m p s o n ' s o r i g i n a l p i e c e ,
"Summer in Central Park," which
they recorded on Sunday for ihe
disc. In this piece, Chrisiensen and
T h o m p s o n a l te rna ted solos to
feature their able talents. Put they
were ai their best when they blended
their saxophone and trumpet into
:)ne sound.
The Quartet closed ihe mghi
with the old standard. "The Night
Has a Thousand Eyes." Here they
just j ammed and allernaied solos
with cach Quartet member.
The Jazz Ensemble 's opening
sel was not as good as they have
been at other limes. They started
off slow and never got going until
Chrisiensen joined them. Suddenly,
they showed the kind of life and
energy that they are capable of
playing. Special mention should be
made of alio sax player Bill Walters
who shincd as if in Chrislensen's
honor. Chnsiensen led the applause
after Walters solo.

sunk iwo free throws lo pul Hope
up by three, things seemed in the bag.
Bul Calvin, which had charged
furiously from behind on the
strength of ILS three-point shooting,
found room for one more momeni of heroics.
•
Memories of last years Hope-
Calvin game number 2. flooded the
minds of all fans as Todd Hennink
of Calvin nailed a three-pointer
with five seconds to go. lying the game at 81.
"How do you explain the game
being tied al the end?" asked Hope
Coach Glenn Van Wieren. "One
name-Hennink."
Van Wieren had nothing bul
praise for Calvin guard Todd
Hennink. who put on one of the
finest displays of clutch three-point
shooting that has been seen.
Hennink hit eight threes for the
game, including seven in the second
half and six in a row. He hit three
triples in the last 35 seconds of
regulation to send the game into
ove r t ime and p o s t p o n e the outcome.
His shots were not open shots
either. He shot from several feet
behind the line with Jon Joffe ('92)
in his face, off balancc, geuing
knocked to the ground, and usually
a combination of the above.
"Everyone knew he would
shoot (the last shot).' ' said Van
Wieren, "and we still couldn't slop
him. He's an unbelievable guy.
Next time we'll havc lo put three guys on him."
Hope held a 17-poini lead wilh
9:14 remaining in regulation. Wade
Gugino had come up big for Hope
by posting strong to the basket and
putting Steve Hondard in foul trouble.
„ Gugino who had found himself
in early foul trouble for other
Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic
Association (M1AA) games, played cautiously early on.
"I figured it would be worth it
(lo give up early points) to be there
in the end." said Gugino.
The key lo lhe win, according
lo Van Wieren, was not a panicular
strategy. ' Ihcy sal for 30 seconds
quietly after regulation," said Van
Wieren. "The key was to go oul in
overtime and gel the fist basket."
Elliott said, "We didn't want
the same thing to happen as last year."
Hope jumped lo the lead early
in overtime and this time there was
lo be no Hennink heroics. Gugino
scored six and Elliotl added the final
four free throws as Hope broke
Calvin's 29-game home, 17-game
conference and six versus Hope winning streak.
The victory was especially
sweet for the Dutchmen (18-1,7-0
MIAA) who lost three limes lo
Calvin (17-2, 6-1 MIAA) last year,
including two at the buzzer and
once in the NCAA Division III playoffs.
The Dutchmen earned only
their seventh victory in 28 tries at
Knollcrest in front of over 4,500
fans, including 300 Dutchmen faithful.
Gugino led the team in scoring
with 27, while Elliott added 25 of
his own, surpassing the 1500 carecr
point barrier.
Elliott was named the MIAA
Player of the Week for the second
time this year and for the fourth
time in his career. Colly Carlson
('92) put in 15 of his own while
dishing out eight assists.
"Wc have veterans in Gugino,
Elliott, and Carlson." said Van
Wieren. "They are patient and persistent."
"The sign of the game,"
commented Van Wieren, "was that
we had a 17-point lead at
Knollcrest They came back, but we
held them. We responded with vigor and focus,"
For certain people this rivalry
may seem a bit eccentric at first.
First-year or transfer students might
not have the feel for the
significance of the accomplishment.
Joffe, a transfer, did not think he
was one of those people.
"The team rubbed off on me"
said Joffe. "they got me excited and
that got me into the game."
Last week's Hope-Calvin game
added but another chapter to the
story of what Van Wieren called.
"The greaiest Division III rivalry in America today."

Flying Dutch drop game to Calvin by Dan C o m b s
s taf f w r i t e r
The Hope College women's
basketball team suffered its first
home loss of the season last
Wednesday, at the Dow Center,
losing to MIAA foe, Calvin, 57-53.
The Flying Dutch were plagued
by poor shooting, especially in the
second half. Hope only made 8 out
of 33 shots , for a shoot ing
percentage of 24 percent. For the
game, the Dutch shot 31 percent,
making only 19 out of 62 shots.
Hope Coach Sue Wise said,"I
just felt like we were a little out of
sync. I felt a little bit like where
we started the first week of the season."
"Our offense wasn't in sync and
I think that's throwing the kids' shots off."
Hope look a 24-21 half time
lead into the locker room, but came
out flat in the second half. It took
the Flying Dutch over five minutes
to score a field goal. The team only
made two field goals in the first 13
minutes of the second half.
Despite the poor shooting,
Hope was able to remain closc to
lhe Knights i the second half. They
made 10 oul of 11 free throws in
the span when they only made tow
field goals. In that same amount of
time, Hope's defense held Calvin lo ^nly 18 points.
The Flying Dutch had a 40-39
lead with 7:03 remaining. Then
Calvin's Sarah Ondersma ('91)
stepped forward. Ondersma made
three straight steals and convened
them into six points. Calvin then
has a 4 8 4 0 lead and never trailed for
the rest of the game.
Calvin Coach Don Vison said,
"Sarah is vcry good at jumping into
pass lanes. That's her specialty."
Vison added, "Those three
buckets she (Ondersma) had were the difference. We kind of held that margin."
Coach Vison said that the win
was a big boost," From the point of
the final result it was a great big
win for us. I didn't count on this
one because Hope is a tough team."
Ondersma led all scorers with
16 points. She also had 8 steals.
One more than the entire Flying
