School Is Dead by Everett Reimer
Doubleday, 1971
School is dead. Every student has wished that this long standing
educational institution were dead. Stu- dents and parents alike
will find Everett Reimer's ex- amination of our education- al
system pertinent and enlightening, and will find that their
negative view of American schools is now shared by someone who has
researched the sys- tem thoroughly and knows what he is talking
about.
Reimer asks some striking and disturbing questions; his main ques-
tion being, "Can an educa- tional system, such as ours today, exist
beneficially in this modern society?" He destroys the legend of the
school as an ideal institu-
tion which broadens hori- zons and enriches the minds of our youth.
He exposes the schools as they actually are: institutions which
have a monopoly on the learning process and which try to beat the
stu- dent's mind into a standard mold in a manner which resembles
slavery more closely than education. He points out that our schools
dampen learning instincts rather than enrich it, pen- alize the
student who shows creativity and individual- ity, and then attach a
stig- ma to those who are unable to meet certain arbitrary
standards. Reimer's the- ory is that the school serves as a center
for child care, social screening, and value teaching, rather than
as a place of learning.

Dear Editor, In reference to your is-
sue of November 5, 1971, 1 would like to take issue with the
editorial on page 2 entitled, Land of the Free, Home of the Brave.
I will limit myself to taking issue with just one of the author's
statements, for I would be writing all day if I was re- plying to
the entire article. That statement is "A man owes allegiance only
to himself" (paragraph 5-- opening line). Consider what would
happen if our society should suddenly adopt this attitude com-
pletely. Obviously any and all social programs would suddenly come
to a screeching halt, for if a man owes allegiance only to himself
then he cannot concern himself about his fellow man. Anarchy would
be the rule of the land, for if a man owes allegiance only to
himself, then any and all laws that operated for the common good of
mankind would have to be repealed, for there would be a conflict
between them and what 4s now the new public opinion. If a man saw
something that he de- sired, he would, under this new state of
affairs, take it, by force if necessary. He owes allegiance only to
himself, so what does it matter to him if a shop- keeper cannot
feed him- self and his children due to excessive theft in his
store. Murder and similar violent crimes would abound, for if a man
owes allegiance only to himself then what does it matter to him if
another should die by his hand.
The new state that the author implies through his above cited
statement is not particularly pretty when analyzed in detail, but
as- suming that the author is a

Dear Editor: The most recent issue
of The Breeze was a mile- stone in several ways. By presenting the
detailed news of Student Govern- ment Association activities you
have done a great serv- ice to the campus and set a fine precedent.
If the Student Government is to have the active support of the
college community, then it is necessary that we know what business
they are transpiring. Prior to this issue we could only speculate
as to what the Student Government Asso- ciation was accomplishing.
I hope you will maintain this fine practice.
Your editorial was a milestone in mindless, im- mature, and
irresponsible journalism. Irregardless of my personal views on war,
I have always believed that it is in the interest of mature and
rational thought that each position and its advocates be heard.
Name calling never has had a place in civilized discus- sion.
Therefore, I have never allowed myself to call the enemy "gooks,"
call the police "pigs," or call draft dodgers "cow- ards." A man's
views or actions should be analyzed on the basis of their con- tent
and intent, not on the basis of personality or ap- pearance. Also,
to be avoided in meaningful dis- cussion are gross general-
izations.
To label the military as an institution composed of "spineless"
menisagross generalization and a ter- ribly incorrect assumption.
Having spent several years in the military, I don't have to make
assumptions about the moral fibre of its men.
The military is a conglom- eration of men and women from many
different back- grounds , who perform their duties for a multitude
of personal reasons. Some are drafted and some Join voluntarily. I
have been in combat. Myself and thousands of other men have faced
the decision of whether to go out into the field, or refuse and
remain In the rear to face jail. Anyone who has ever been in combat
knows what is the easy route as cowards or "spineless" men for I am
sure thay had their reasons. However, the greater majority did go
to the field. That decision alone is a deeply coura- geous one and
not what one could interpret as the action of a "spineless young
man."
Sitting here, as I write this, the faces and names of many fine
young men come to my mind. They are all gone now. They had a mul-
titude of views of the war. Their deaths are part of the tragedy of
Vietnam. But, if you could have seen the battlefield, you could in
no manner have inter- preted their actions as "spineless."
There are many fine arguments against war in general, and the war
in Vietnam specifically. Yours is not one of them. I feel that the
war in Viet- nam was wrong, and I can cite specific examples of
political and military mis- calculations that contrib- uted to the
situation. My position, and the positions of others who disagree
with the war, were based oh experience, research and reason. Your
editorial was apparently based on the writers own uninformed
concepts. While I respect the freedom of the press, I also feel
that it is the responsibility of the press here at Madison College
to provide its readers with thoughtful, mature, and documented
views for con- sideration. Your editorial, "Land of the Free, Home
of the Brave," failed on every count.
Sincerely yours, Butch Sincock

Trio Thrills Large Audiences
Edward and Harding were a great success during the Coffee House.
Each show was well-received by all who attended.
A trio of performers from Toronto, Canada, made Madison's second
Coffee House a smashing success last week. Don Edward Owen, Bill
Harding Candy, and bass player, George Korenko, who call themselves
simply "Ed- ward and Harding," thrilled their audiences with
renditions of such hits as "The Boxer," "Fire and Rain," and
"Suite: Judy Blue Eyes." Although their humor added next to nothing
to the show, their fine mu- sical ability and blend of harmonious
voices pro- vided the masses with re- freshing entertainment.

Sp. Ed. Announcement
Lecturer Will Transcend Minds of Students Who is Maharishi
Ma-
hesh Yogi? What exactly is he teaching and what is he doing now?
Even though the big wave of publicity about him has passed,
Maharishi is as active as ever spread- ing Transcendental Medi-
tation, TM as he calls it, training people to teach TM, and guiding
one of the largest student organiza- tions in the world. During the
last five years, this organization, the Students' International
Meditation Society (SIMS), has en- rolled over 60,000 students on
over 400 campuses in the United States alone. Jerry Jarvis,
Director of SIMS, attributes its rapid growth to the satisfaction
and ful- fillment derived from the practice of Transcendental
Meditation. Meditators say that TM has produced great happiness in
their lives, given them enormous energy, increased their ef-
ficiency in work and studies and produced a deep sense of inner
security, well- being, and peace of mind. As one meditatior in Ber-
kelyey, California put it:
Since I started TM there has been a constant, steady improvement in
my life. Things no longer upset me very easily; there is less worry
over problems; I am more at peace with myself; I am happier; I
enjoy life more, and I have greater confidence in my dealings with
others.
Teachers of TM say it is a "simple technique which takes the
attention naturally from the ordinary
thinking level to the source of thought, the res- ervoir of energy
and intel- ligence. The process auto- matically results in the
expansion of the conscious mind and full mental po- tential begins
to be used in thought and action."
The effects of Trans- cendental Meditation are not only mental but
phys- ical as well. Researchers at Harvard Medical School, the
Brusch Medical Center in Boston and Stanford Re- search Institute,
investi- gating the physiological ef- fects of Transcendental
Meditation, have found that: 1) A few minutes' practice of TM
produces a rest deeper than that of sleep; 2) This deep rest helps
eliminate stress and ten- sion; 3) Physiological changes (including
brain waves, blood pressure, metabolic rate, blood
chemistry) clearly suggest that a fourth major state of
consciousness is expe- rienced during Transcend- ental Meditation.
These findings appeared in Sci- ence, the Journal .of the American
Association for the Advancement of Sci- ence, March 27, 1970.
Because of the rest in- duced by TM and subse- quent release of
tension, a person immediately begins to feel calmer, more
energetic, and clearer in his mind. A student from Yale reports,
"In TM I found that satisfaction I could never really get with
drugs and other things." Good results seem not to be limited to
students. A 54-year-old business ex- ecutive stated, "The abil- ity
to concentrate has im- proved, and intelligent per- ception for

talent. Edward sings and plays the guitar, and he plays the
mandolin magnificently in "Mr. Bo jangles." Harding sings and plays
the guitar and thumb-flute well. Korenko has an incompar- able
style of playing his bass, and he has an ex- cellent voice. All of
their voices blend to produce an incomparable harmony.
Madison will continue the Circuit Coffee House program the week of
Jan- uary 6, featuring student talent. With such fine en-
tertainment, Madison's Coffee House, located in the North Ballroom

SMITHDEAL-MASSEY BUSINESS COLLEGE
Richmond, Virginia 23220
ANNOUNCEMENT Dr. Paul H. Steagall,
professor of business edu- cation at Madison College, was presented
a certifi- cate of appreciation by the Virginia Business Educa-
tion Association, a depart- ment of the Virginia Edu- cation
Association, at its annual meeting in Rich- mond on Friday, Oct.
29.
Dr. Steagall was recog- nized for outstanding achievement as a
business educator and in gratitude for Distinguished Service
rendered in the develop- ment and promotion of Business Education
in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Dr. Steagall has also been listed in the 1971 Editions of
Outstanding Educators of America and Personalities of the
South.

The author not only points out the enormous deficit in our
educational program, but also offers a solution, and that is to get
rid of the schools rather than trying to reform them. He proposes
establishing international '"resource banks of knowledge" which
would function in the man- ner of a public library. The important
thing is, however, that we do not replace one fallible edu-
cational system with an- other.
School Is Dead diag- noses the malignancy in our school system in
such a way that it cannot possibly be ignored or overlooked. The
book is disturbingly immediate and will shake the educational
establish- ment to its very founda- tions.

- The Grandstander - Win, lose or draw in their final soccer game
of the
season against rugged Roanoke, Coach Bob Vander- warker and his
hooters are to be commended for a fine season which found them in
contention for the champion- ship of the western division of the
college soccer league.
The Dukes, in only their fourth season of inter- collegiate
competition, compiled an enviable record against the state's best.
In doing so, they built up a loyal following which increased in
size with each home game.
The future looks extremely bright since many of the players,
including star goalie Al Mayer, will return next year.
Eastern Mennonite's Royals finished the soccer season with a 6-5-1
mark after defeating Grace College in their final game of the
season last Saturday. A wind- blown shot from 60 yards out was
responsible for the win, according to Royal Coach Byron
Shenk.

Just Like the Real Thing
The folly of having three divisions in each of the pro football
leagues rears its ugly head with the dis- tinct possibility that
one of the teams may reach the playoffs despite playing under . 500
ball.
The Browns and Steelers are tied for the lead In the Central
division of the AFL with 4-4 records. Both could conceivably be
under .500 after next Sunday's action when the Browns face a potent
Kansas City eleven while the Steelers take on the red-hot Miami
Dolphins.
Maybe a merger is not the answer but a re-alignment of teams most
certainly could be. How could the powers that be possibly justify
having Dallas in the eastern division of the NFL while Atlanta and
New Orleans are in the western division?
Bridgewater's Eagles assured themselves of a win- ning football
season with *a 7-6 win over Randolph- Macon last Saturday. They are
5-3 with but one game remaining in the schedule.
The Eagles boast the state's top scorer in Bruce Cowan who replaced
the departed Marshall Flora, last year's workhorse running back.
Despite scoring only one point last week, Cowan picked up 119 of
his team's 125 yards on the ground. His point was the winning one,
however, since he does the Eagles place kicking.
Season tickets for the upcoming basketball season went on sale this
week. Price for the 10-game reserved seat tickets is $15. Four JV
prelim games are included.
The Duke's home schedule includes Luther Rice, Shepherd,
Hampden-Sydney, Virginia Wesleyan, Chris- topher Newport, Eastern
Mennonite, Rhode Island College, Millersville (Pa.) State, D. C.
Teachers Col- lege, and Southeastern.
Rhode Island, Millersville, and Wesleyan are new to the schedule.
The Dukes' home opener is Dec. 1 with Luther Rice furnishing the
opposition.

Hampden-Sydney be- came the Dukes sixth shut- out victim, as
Madison's booters pounded the Tigers 4-0 last Friday. Ray La- roche
led the Dukes with two goals as Madison out- shot the opponent
38-8.
Richie Coleman scored the first of three unassisted goals with
11:40 left in the first period. The shot was booted to the right of
the goalie, hit the goal post
and bounced into the goal. The Dukes had several hard shots in the
opening quar- ter, but they were wide or high.
Bob Mc Ardle scored the second unassisted goal when he caught the
Tigers* goalie sleeping with a driv- ing shot from 30 yards out.
Three minutes later, La- roche, standing in the same spot McArdle
fired from, punched in the third un- assisted goal of the
day.
Al Mayer received a jolt in the back just be- fore half time and
was replaced at the goal by McArdle. McArdle played most of the
third period until he was shaken up and Mayer came back into the
game until a third goalie, Jeff McEnteer could come out of a
forward position and suit up for goalkeeper.
Mayer at this time re- corded the game's only as- sist when he
fired an out- let pass to Laroche at mid- field, who went in for
the final score. McEnteer was then brought in to preserve the
shutout.
Johnny Phillips finished 52nd in the State Cross- country meet held
at Bridge water with a time of 27:34 for five miles as the Dukes
finished 10th over all.
Competing with over 350 runners from both the college and
university di- visions, the Dukes all freshmen team put four
runners across the line in less than 30 minutes. Bill Mahone, Bill
Fletcher, and Christ Bosewell finished 59th, 77th, and 79th re-
spectively.
Results of Wednesday's game with Roanoke will appear in the next
issue of the Breeze. This was the last regular season game of the

Something is missing. The young generation is aware more than any
other that something is missing. Their elders are aware of it too.
Man today is trying in various ways to improve his situation. He is
trying on political, sociological, economic, and humanistic levels.
Here is a technique which directly improves the individual and
thereby begins to improve all these aspects of life
simultaneously.
People today seem to be
realizing that it is not enough for a man to try to find a better
life by try- ing to change only his ex- ternal situations.
This is basically the Maharishi's message: that it is upon the
strength of the inner self that the ac- complishments of the outer
man rest.
Meditators claim that by practicing TM a few minutes morning and
eve- ning a person discovers the daily, joy involved in unfolding
his inner poten- tial. TM can be learned and enjoyed by anyone. The
Student's International Meditation Society is spon- soring a
lecture to be given on Wednesday, November 17, at 8 p.m. in Jackson
1 by a teacher of Transcenden- tal Meditation trained per- sonally
by the Maharishi.
