College Costs Concern Families American families are being "driven into considerable lev- els of debt" to pay for the rising cost of college, says John C. Hoy, president of the New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE). A larger majority of New Englanders compared to the American public overall is worried about the rising cost of higher education. Though Americans express deep concern about steadily increasing tuition costs, Hoy told the nation's financial aid' executives attending the annual joint conference of the Na- tional Association of State Scholarship and Grant Programs and the National Council of Higher Education Loan Program in New Orleans on Wednesday (November 6), they show strong support for federal financial assistance, both for students and colleges. Hoy said that these were the findings of a national survey We Pay You " American attitudes toward higher education conducted in st week of October by the Opinion Research Corpora- 3RC). TOP t- najor finding of the ORC poll was that a growing number of adult Americans intend to complete additional school- ing, even as they express dismay about the rising costs of a college education.

Questioning Categories

Perhaps it is true that a presentation of only the female side of things..As limited. But..is it any more limited than the prevailing male view of things, which-ivhen not taken as absolute truth-is at least seen as "serious", relevant and important. " - Sholamith Firestone in The Dialectic of Sex, 1970.

The Generalizations of gender pollute our learning. It is time that Trinity come up with a plan to fully incorporate Women's Studies into the curriculum. Until it does so, it will continue to slip furthur behind other institutions as this field flourishes. More importantly, Trinity will contradict its fundamental foundations. Perhaps the one thing a liberal arts institution prides itself on the most is its ability to question categories. The Women's Studies program does just that. By studying history, ethics, or philosophy based on the experiences of men alone we limit ourselves. The knowledge we gain is only half true. College Press Service Adding the experiences of women to our studies can only force us to see things more clearly. It will allow us to view things we already know in an entirely new manner. IF Hov CAK* ^OSTIFV rr, And it will let us go on to future studies with one less bias. The Women's Studies Committee submitted a state- THIS 16 AKl £TH!£6 CLA6S. " ment and call for action on this issue in September of 1984. Their plan is to incorporate a Women's Studies minor into the curriculum. The faculty has recently voted unanimously that a proposal be made on Women's Stud- ies by early next semester. It is an impending agenda item for both the Educational Policy Committee and The Curriculum Committee. Both committees would be wise to consider it seriously. It is not until the teaching of history reflects the ETTERS experiences of both women and men that we can be satisfied with our education. At that time a seperate Women's Studies program will no longer be necessary, Nyklicek for we will truly be learning the "human" experience.
