The first summer quarter lived up to Dean Hightower's opening chapel statement Oh, Dr. Hicks, I didn't know that suit had to be dry-cleaned. Audrey Saxton waters the President. that it would be one of academic chal­ lenge, just like the others. There were a few differences-classes beginning at 7 :00 instead of 8 :00 and water fights instead of traying on chapel hill. Construction, warm weather, and wishful thinking about lakeside . vacations of days past occupied conversational time slots usually reserved for chapel points and dress regulations. Concerts, foreign study orientation, mixers, talk, and stud y filled evenings. It was just another quarter-almost. Trespa ..e" will be water-ballooned! Koren Foxworthy guards the quod. New Student Days Freshman Days dawned and 304 new Frosh descended on the campus for a whirl of un­ packing, counselling, meeting people--:-and faculty members-, discussing, and recreating. The return of the upperclassmen brought regis­ tration, classes, and hazing, the bane of the freshman's existence. But Homecoming ended the introduction, and as the pots blazed in the bonfire, the Frosh were finally accepted whole­ heartedly as " real people."

"Enemy" focuses on Dr. Thomas Stock­ man's attempt to close his town's polluted medicinal springs and thereby safeguard health. Stockman's lonely battle for truth champions free expression and reveals how a prejudiced, frightened majority op­ poses progress and becomes its own enemy. Stockman rages at his brother, the mayor, played by returning alum Todd Bed. You want p.e. credit for trekking around Europe? Ring around the Sherwood sign.

The entering student at K finds two campuses waiting for him-the buildings: silent, The Living inanimate, and unchanging; and the faculty: living, active, varying, but always Campus dependable, an integral part of each student's life . Faculty members are known for their willingness to discuss with students, to listen with respect to their opinions, and to aid and advise without arrogance. They are the real pace setters in the student's quest for knowledge and for meaning in life. Frosh Mordhorst participates in the sing. No wonder the freshmen don't understand it. Neither do I!

As we look back over the ten years of his administration we look upon a succession of events which transformed the College from the traditional American institution which quietly closed its doors early in June and reopened them late in September into an efficient space­ saving, time-saving, wide-awake enterprise which, like a successful "Ten years from now we are going to present him with the moon!" business, keeps its expensive facilities in use on a year-round basis ... comments Dr. Reymond l. Hightower. Dean of the Faculty. But to speak of Weimer Hicks is to give only one-half of the story. The tribute tonight is dedicated in equal part to his wonderful wife , Jean ... No college has ever had a more charming, more dependable or more popular woman in the presidential office than Jean Hicks." Dr. Walter Waring, on behalf of the Faculty: "The individuality of our esteem for our president illustrates the singular role he ha s played at Kalamazoo College during his tenure ... His concern for the economic and educational vitality of the college lies in his line of duty, but the relationship that he has main­ tained with his faculty goes far beyond his call of duty and touches each of us personally ... President Hicks is fully aware of the fact that to be great, a college must have a fine library, suitable class­ rooms, halls and dormitories, a student body that can be taught, and a faculty that can teach: but he also knows that these things alone do not make a college excell. My every contact with President Hicks has impressed me with his restless desire to provide Kalamazoo College with the one element that cannot be reducd to statistical accounting. That element has been called spirit, uniqueness, community of scholarship, desire for excellence, self-evaluation, and a great many other things." Mr. Gene Tidrick, on behalf of the Student Body : "I think that President Hicks will long be remembered by most of the students of this college as the president who knows nearly every student by his first name, as a president whose office door is open at all times to every student. Certainly, we are grateful for all that President Hicks has done to make education at Kalamazoo one of the best that can be obtained in the country and to make a degree from Kalamazoo College one of the most respected in the country. But we also esteem Dr. Hicks, I think more than for any other reason, for the keen interest he takes in the problems of each individual student.

  • Rising Second Grade
    1st into 2nd Grade 2021 Summer Reading List ======================= Prepared by Liz Perry, SFWS Librarian for Class Teacher Deborah LeDean On the threshold of 2nd grade, children possess a burgeoning love of story, an interest cultivated in part by rich Main Lesson content and also by caregivers sharing a love of reading and storytelling at home. This summer, whether read-aloud or read-alone moments are offered as quick intakes of breath in the middle of the day or as restful unfoldings at night before bed, the grade-school library would like to suggest books honoring a variety of interests. The summer reading list includes Picture Books and Read-Aloud chapter-books, both Classic and Contemporary, of animals, adventure, friendship, fantasy, and family life. Included here are also Fairy and Folk Tales, followed by the Alphabet Books; while traditional in scope, they build on the 1st grader’s recent acquisition of letters and their sounds—even proficient readers can revisit these. Children can advance to Early Chapter Books (look for series such as Stepping Stones, Puffin Chapters, Harper Trophy), often housed on a separate carousel from older fiction. Recent Award-Winning Picture Books ● Alfie: (The Turtle that Disappeared), by Thyra Heder (2017). Nia loves Alfie, her pet turtle. But he’s not very soft, he doesn’t do tricks, and he’s pretty quiet. Sometimes she forgets he’s even there! That is until the night before Nia’s seventh birthday, when nAlfie disappears!

They were about fifty yards from my house, and the plane’s away at the other end of the town. Lockerbie resident (woman) Oh my God, it was terrible, and then sparks, and then the whole thing went down. Martin Cadman, father of William Cadman In February, 1990, with some others from the UK families’ group, I met the American President’s Commission on Aviation Security and Terrorism at the American Embassy. That was in February 1990. And at the end of that meeting, after we had broken up, one of the members of the Commission said to me, “Your government and ours know exactly what happened, but they’re never going to tell.” Narrator In the beginning; a hand, a bag, and a baggage tag. And a radio that plays cassettes, and has its own flipside, a bomb. Most of what we read in the papers is true, but no official party is going to tell you what’s true and what isn’t true.
