ON THE CAMPUS NOTRE DAME Editorials A Generation in Retrospect This started out as such a promising . It seemed such a happy coincidence, to be entering one's adolescence in 1960. We can't tell whether this was because of the nature of 13- and 14-year-olds — who tend to look at things in terms of black and white, good or bad; or whether the first part of our decade really did have some magic to it. But that is not the point. An unprecedented change of attitude of an entire generation has occurred between the time of the freedom rides and the present period, when the head of the Selective Service system, after consultation with the White House, has issued a directive ordering draft boards to induct into the Army those who actively indicate their dissatisfaction with the status quo. "We shall overcome, we shaU overcoine, we shall overcome, someday." With faint feelings of embarrassment, we remember what it was like to be truly dedicated to an ideal of harmony among men. We think back to the fresh-faced civil rights workers on a voter registration drive in the South naively attempting to establish a "dialogue" with the rednecks who attempted to intimidate them. We also remember that there was a time when official support for such emotions was at hand. We remember when the Peace Corps seemed such a valid alternative to force. We recall when the bayonets were not fixed in our direction, but towards those who would prevent a Negro from enrolling at Ole Miss. In short, we look at the and division and grimness on the faces of our friends, and think back to the times when we had inspirations and heroes. And we remember those accurate barometers of our feelings then — the songs we sang — and are depressed.

Com^ gatlier round people wherever you roam, And admit that the waters around you have grown, And accept it that soon you'll he drenched to the bone, If your time to you is worth saving. And you'd better start swimming or you'll sink like a a stone — For the times, they are a changin'.

We can't tell, now, whether the times have changed, or, in fact, if they ever will. But we know that our genera­ tion's enormous amount of energy that had been construc­ tively tapped less than five years before has been turned inwards, or has been diffused or scattered, or has been forced more or less underground in order to oppose the war in Vietnam. It seems such an imbearable prostitution, because this started off as such a promising decade. — J.G. The Scholastic No More Mistakes The past architectural mistakes on the Notre Dame campus have often been the objects of severe criticism and jokes, but the important question is what about the future? What will the new high-rise dormitories, the dining hall addition, and the new biology, chemistry and engineering buildings be like? WiU they become new mistakes costing almost $20,000,000? Once completed, a btiilding is designed to last for a half-century or more. You cannot simply tear it down because it is an unsatisfactory solution; you are stuck with it. But, you can demand that steps be taken to prevent such waste in the future. Because Notre Dame is intent on becoming a com­ pletely residential university and students will be expected to spend the greater part of four years going to classes here and living in a dormitory, it seems that the physical quality of the new buildings should be an issue of vital importance. What is being done to improve the quality of haU life, classroom and laboratory spaces? WiU there continue to be monotonous rooms off endless corridors of glazed tile and concrete block? Will the new dorms have study and lounge areas? In \iew of Univer­ sity policy concerning parietal hours will there be suitable places to bring a girl into the hall and entertain her? Only the most naive would suggest that a university is An Effective Alternative great because of its physical plant. That is a quality The search for the most patriotic man is necessarily given to a university by its faculty and students. A great futile and one that only a most presumptious person would university, however, should be housed in an exciting and undertake. Clearly, no man can judge the patriotism of stimulating environment. And this, it seems, has not been another. done at Notre Dame. The fact that most of the buildings The members of the senior class have seen Everett considered to have serious faults are the work of one Dirksen and William Westmoreland proclaimed patriots; architectural firm, would seem to indicate the desirability the first because he agreed to put in an appearance at of changing architects.

A building seriously; and with an added "protest vote" he could is a tool that people use, and although people can use probably win the election. Such a protest accomplishes inefficient tools, they do not perform to the best of their nothing. ability. We feel there is an effective alternative. We urge the It is about time that Notre Dame began to build an seniors to write, "No" on their ballots to express their exciting physical environment to house its intellectual and refusal to pass judgment on the patriotism of the men athletic greatness.

She said that she had come out to tell me something very important. I asked her if she remembered what it was and naturally she said no. After a few minutes of deliberation, she woke up my father and started say­ ing something about "it was time we had a good long talk with our son." Since I was the only boy in the family, I kind of sensed I was in for trouble. My father asked her if it couldn't wait till after dinner. My father's always putting things off till after dinner.

My two friends stopped washing the car and stood up and said, "No shit" and "You're kidding," which made me feel pretty good because you could tell they were getting concerned. The genuine ass just kept polishing the side-view mirror and aslced me if I was going to enlist or wait to get drafted. I hadn't thought about the draft at all until then and I felt like hitting the guy in the stomach for bringing it up. My two friends asked me what I was going to do and I told them I didn't know.
