Continued on Page 8 Page 2 THE CONCORDIAN October 13,1978 Un-Americanism At Concordia, people talk a good deal about the "Concordia community." The term is rarely defined—probably because it would defy precise definition—but it is nonetheless often invoked. However, for those willing to acceDt a fairly broad definition of what constitutes this community, there is one to be found in the people who are now on campus or will be here in the next several days. Kor in addition to the customary students, faculty, and administrators, Concordia yesterday saw the representatives of the Corporation, today plays host to the Regents, through the weekend will welcome alumni, and next week will provide the convention site of the greater community of which this school is a part, the American1 Lutheran Church. I offer this capacious description of our "community" only to justify the following remarks—remarks which may be interpreted by some readers as being overly narrow and of no consequence to them. Three weeks ago, intervisitation at Concordia was extended by several hours. The extension, in my eyes at least, raised certain question about this school's willingness—or desire—to continue to be perceived as an institution which is in the world but not a part of it. It occurred to me that the parties involved in that decision might not have fully considered what its impact on Concordia in the long run would be and, in a more general sense, exactly what the role of this school should be, both in 1978 and in the years to come. It is this "more general sense" which is the question at hand. And the question is not limited merely to the principals involved in the annual irritation over intervisitation; it applies to every member of the Concordia community, a community which I have for the Standpoint purpose of this editorial defined as including the American Lutheran Church. Indeed, it is a question which includes all American Lutherans, and a good share of other American Christians, as well. By JAIME DOHERTY the Centrum in the spring of umbus discovered America, 1976.

Our Town "Still Crazy after all these Years."that's the theme of this year's Homecoming. It is a theme that assumes the common wisdom about a person's college memories—that one remembers only the exciting, the unusual, the crazy things, while the more mundane aspects of college life fade from memory. We wonder if this is true. Perhaps people remember the un-crazy times as well—studying through long nights, sitting DSE talking after dinner, enjoying a good professor, doing well (or poorly) on a paper. After all, the greater part of anybody's college experience—or of any experience, for that matter—is generally unextraordinary and unexceptional. Valuing and remembering what occurs everyday, therefore, would seem as important and as good as fondly recalling the unusual and crazy. But it takes a special talent, or perhaps a special committment, to appreciate the one as well as the others. And it is a talen—or commitment—that often eludes nearly all of us. If we don't remember—much less celebrate—the usual and ordinary, perhaps we ought to.
