Rycenga said that when the university was established, Allendale residents were rather wary of GVSU students, but now they are starting to live together Rycenga noted, however, that GVSU provides more opportuni ties for Allendale residents than Allendale provides for GVSU students.

The major problem between the students and the township, as Allendale Township Supervisor Roger Rycenga noted, (See article, page 1.) is a lack of communication. It is time to change that. G VSU Vice President Matthew M e Logan has suggested that Allendale form a permanent standing committee to keep Allendale aware of the needs of G VSU students year-in, year-out. This is a noteworthy idea, especially because students, by virtue of the fact that they graduate after four years, cannot permanently establish an institution to convey their needs. The committee need not have any official legislative power so ff long as it increases communication. The committee should be made Burge On • • • up of Allendale residents and G VSU students^and administrators to ensure that the township and students balance needs - or at least When I was just a little guy, Burge; back to earth, now!” But toodling around in high school, hear me out. communicate so that there are no conflicts out of ignorance.

On February 29, actor, author and former Los Angeles Laker Kareem Abdul-Jabaar visited the Fieldhouse to lecture about his new book, “Profiles in Black Courage.” Though Jabaar had many reasons to put this book together, he said his main inspiration was his son, who, when asked to do a report on black history, declared that he knew nothing about the subject. His inspiration for the title of the book comes from President John F. Kennedy’s book called “Profiles in Courage.” “[Kennedy’s book] is about what it takes to be courageous in America,” Jabaar said. Jabaar has admired Kennedy since he was a young teenager because of Kennedy’s view on civil rights. “It was not a popular stance to take at that time. People told him that he wouldn’t win the next election if he took this route, but he said that it didn’t matter,” Jabbar said. Jabaar’s lecture focused on several African-Americans who have been overlooked in history books. He also spoke about the Kareem Abdul-Jabaar gets bombarded by his fans during a reception held after his speech at the Fieldhouse Feb. 29.
