The chapel would serve all denominations. Louden said, and "allow for the worship of one's own god." It would serve as a place for students to go and be alone and reflect, Louden said. Because state funds cannot be used for such a purpose, Louden said, the chapel would have to be built by raising the money and then donating it to the Madison College i Foun- dation.

TIIK BKKK/.K. Friday. April 8. 1977 Eliminating secrecy key to honor success
Basic to the function of a college honor system is the need to preserve- the integrity and proper operation of the educational process that it represents. After examining the system now in operation at Madison, it is evident that the preservation of integrity often takes a back seat to other interests. , ... The impact of the Kelly Latham case, in the long run, will not be upon one individual, but upon the entire honor system and the college itself. ... For too long, weaknesses within the Madison honor system have gone undiscovered, or more accurately, unreported. The honor system has been conducted with secrecy obscured from public view and unaccountable; and consequently it has lost the power and respect that it must command to be effective. That secrecy must no longer continue Amid criticism and accusations regarding the Latham case, key issues are being ignored. But rumors must first be dispelled, and then the real issues raised The Honor Code defined in the Madison handbook is confusing regarding the proper adjudication of cases. Indeed, the cross- indexing of the current handbook, under honor council procedures, refers the reader to a fire-extinguishers provision, hardly applicable. But the rights of Latham were clearly not violated. Latham SXSSKCT was tried andconvicted in a closed hearing, fulfilling the mandate of the honor code handbook. But another provision is being touted as a justification for * News analysis im^SSfSfftifSfifsssxsmf^ prolonged secrecy, and that is Section 14 which provides that "no interference with the judicial process" will be allowed. It is a catchall phrase, an ambiguous phrase with no referent to give it meaning. It is currently being used to justify silence and the harassment of honor council members who respond to their 'Film problem is auditorium' constituents; and it is being misused.

{Long reading period 'valuable9
(I.P.)- Although a number of colleges give lip service to the concept of a reading period, allowing perhaps two days hiatus between classes and examinations, Princeton University is one of the relatively few which have maintained a period of a week or longer. The practice is based on a firm conviction of the value of this longer respite. "It is a period designed to give students a chance to reflect a bit on the courses they have been taking," said Assistant Dean of the College Paolo M.Cucchi, "to catch up on any reading they may not have been able to do, finish, papers they may not quite have completed, and. of course, to prepare for the examinations." In these days of intense academic pressure, students find this time not merely helpful, but necessary.

The Stratford Players will present "Twelfth Night," a light work which Hall feels is "probably Shakespeare's most psychologically interesting comedy." With a tone of extreme romanticism, the play is about separated twins-Karen Marcus and Chris Wessel-and mistaken identities. "When I read it, I was struck by the romantic notions that Shakespeare used.'Hall said. "To get at those romantic ideas" he opted for updating the time and setting to 1877 Germany. Why? Simply because "they took romantic ideas to an ex- treme" at that point in history, he said. Nineteenth century Europe was a land of elaborate fairy tale castles with spires leading nowhere, damsels in distress, and nobility "in love with love." Changing the time period and setting is nothing new as far as Shakespearean drama is concerned. It's done all the time. Hall notes, especially at #the popular Shakespeare festivals. He has. however, left most of the language and place references the same, even if they don't quite match. The biggest problem he found"was in finding a substitute for the court jester character, a mainstay of Shakespeare. The "ironic viewpoint" demonstrated by this personage is unlike any other in history: Hall found. The plot itself is simple and the characters "fascinating." Heading the list are a duke--Cedric Guthrie-enamored with the idea of being in of being in love and Olivia-Andrea Fisher- a lady "in love with melancholy" and mourning the death of her father and brother partly "because she looks good in black."
