8 NEW ADVANCED DEGREE OFFERED A new degree, a Master of Arts in Performing Arts Management, is being offered by the Rollins College Theater Department in cooperation with the college's Crummer School of Finance and Business Adminis- tration. The curriculum is a five-year plan leading to a B.A. degree in Theater Arts after four years and the M.A. in Performing Arts Management after the fifth year. "To the best of my knowledge, there are only two or three schools, including New York University, offering such a course" explained Dr. Robert O. Juergens, head of the Rollins College Department of Theater Arts and Speech. The curriculum for the new degree combines existing theater arts courses with economics courses. After graduating with a B.A. in Theater Arts, the student would take two courses from the Crummer School while serving a full year's internship in the business office of the Annie Russell Theater.

MET SINGER FEATURED IN "TIME" John Reardon '52, baritone of the Metropolitan Opera, was the subject of a feature article in the August 22, 1969 TIME magazine. He was cited for his splendid performances in contemporary opera particularly. The article dealt with his performance in the American premiere of Penderecki's "The Devils of Loudun at the Santa Fe Opera." Reardon gave a benefit recital for the Scholarship Fund of Pi Kappa Lambda on the Rollins campus last March, contributing his services and expenses, as well as those of his accompanist, Bliss Hebert.

TRUSTEES HONOR A. J. HANNA Tribute for 52 years of outstanding service to the college has been paid to Dr. A. J. Hanna by the Rollins College Board of Trustees in electing him a lifetime Vice President and Professor Emeritus. The resolution passed by the Board of Trustees reads in part: "His accomplishments in research and scholarly writings have brought wide respect and pres- tige to the College. Through his efforts over the years vast financial resources have come to the College as gifts and grants. As a result of his activities and leader- ship, Rollins College has a respected and ever-growing library. From his tireless interest and devoted service Rollins College stands out as a leader in Latin American relations and International understanding. Dr. Hanna's personal and professional life has attracted to Rollins College untold numbers of friends and supporters." Dr. Hanna is a leading historian and specialist in Latin American affairs and has authored or co-authored numerous books. He is listed in "Who's Who in America," "Who's Who in American Education," and the "Directory of American Scholars." THREE NEW DONOR ORGANIZATIONS FORMED In addition to the existing Hamilton Holt Club which is an honorary organization for Alumni who annually give $100 or more unrestricted, three new donor groups have begun under the temporary chairmanship of Henry Lauterbach '37. The new organizations, formed in part to recognize the past and continuing efforts of Chancellor McKean, and to show support for our new President, Dr. Jack Critchfield, are: The Chancellor's Committee (for Alumni and Parent donors of $1000+ annually, unrestricted). The President's Club (for Alumni and Parent donors of $500 - $999 annually, unrestricted). The A. W. Rollins Society (named after the founder of Rollins, for Alumni donors of $250 - $499 annually, unrestricted). The Conquistadors still exist, primarily for non- Alumni donors of $1000+ with the funds designated for C.H.I.E.F. AWARD RECIPIENT NAMED faculty salaries, similar to the Patrons ($100 or more).

The purpose was to supply blood for American servicemen in Viet Nam. The drive lasted three days with 47 Rollins students contributing blood.

ANNIVERSARY CONVOCATION Rollins celebrated its eighty-fourth Anniversary on November 4, 1969, with a convocation in the Knowles Memorial Chapel. Highlights of the convocation were the installation of the new Bush Professor of Science, Dr. Paul A. Vestal, and an address by a nationally re- nowned educator, Dr. O. B. Hardison, Jr., Director of the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D. C. The topic of Hardison's address was "The Humanities: Towards a Definition." Hardison was recognized in a 1965 TIME magazine cover story as one of the ten outstanding educators in the nation. Dr. Vestal, Rollins College Professor of Biology, will fill the Bush Chair of Science endowed by the late industrialist in whose ELDEST ALUMNA AUTHORS HISTORICAL WORK honor the Rollins College Archibald Bush Science Emma Dreyer Gaylord '02, oldest living Alumna of Center is named.

The college has come under increasing student pressure to extend this idea, notably in the direction of some type of visitation program — a program under which students could entertain guests in their residential quarters in addition to the public areas of the dormitories. In response to this pressure, the Student Association established a committee in the Spring of 1969 to study the idea of visitation and make some recommendations to the student government. This committee is in the process of developing leg- islation which would allow students to visit each other in their rooms, according to certain set rules and limitations. Under these rules, each individual dormitory will have the right to accept or reject this visitation privilege. If the dormitory should decide to accept the plan, the residents would be able to establish their own additional regulations and limitations as long as these rules are within the limits of the school-wide policy. The committee hopes to develop a useful program and is researching all aspects of this area before final action is taken. In a Christmas letter to parents of students, Student Association President, Larry Witzleben wrote in part: "Rollins is changing in a very fundamental way. The students, faculty and administration are approaching it responsibly and in a combined effort.
