'Much of the responsibility for making a new curriculum work will rest on the ability of students and faculty to relate to each other." Jennifer

Bright, energetic and talented, she also dabbles in a new type of committee system. The committee idea I call art.

If there's a job to be done soft competitiveness and self-confidence Jennifer is definitely I think a group of people who are really interested in the the "New Woman." project should be formed.

I know that all regulations can't be services to the community of Winter Park are many and justified to everyone, but no one should have to obey a rule varied. The Coffies have two children, Ashley age 8, and just because it is a rule." Trey, 4. Not long after the 1972 election, Jennifer and Linda got Linda "My senior year ten women were selected to live in a together for coffee and conversation concerning the Rollins project called Honor House, where there were no rules. We student ten years ago and today. Have the issues and prob- had to earn the privilege of living there by maintaining high lems on the campus really changed? Are today's students scholastic averages and being active in campus affairs. In much more than a decade removed from those of 1960? An exchange we were given the right to completely govern our interviewer posed such questions to the duo and the ensuing lives. None of us abused the privilege, so the next year senior conversation literally spoke for itself. women with good grades were given keys to their sorority houses." QUESTION: What were the general issues considered in your presidential campaign? QUESTION: Was there/is there a feeling of campus unity at Rollins? Linda "The entire issue involved in my platform was the actual creation of three-branch student government. We had Linda "We always seemed to have a feeling of unity. But never really been involved in the making of any campus or there was also strong competition between sororities and academic policy. I advocated a judicial, legislative and execu- fraternities. However, they also encouraged their members tive form of government, but we weren't considering big to be active in campus organizations, so they helped to rein- rules changes such as challenging women's hours. We were force the unity of the school." "I don't remember anyone I knew saying they were unhappy. None of us had time to think about it. We were too busy to be discontented or bored." Linda
Jennifer "Most of the school's campus unity seems to be gone now. But there's not a lot of sorority and fraternity competition either. Last year I tried to get something going to create some school spirit, but there's a lot of peer pressure to be individualistic and it makes it hard to organize large groups. I think the individualism is good though. You always know that if a student shows up for something, he's really interested. He's not there because his social group says he has to belong to several organizations. There's less involve- ment on the campus today, but it's more sincere." QUESTION: What are/were Rollins students interested in? Linda "As I mentioned before, we were very interested in being able to govern ourselves to some degree, and to have a court system. Intramural sports were big, and sorority and fraternity activities were vital." Jennifer "It looks like the students' biggest concern is their social life and visitation privileges; or maybe that's just what they talk about the most. Actually, I think a lot of students are sincerely interested in improving the curriculum. But everybody's waiting for everyone else to do something. I think the only generalization I can make is that no one seems happy with things the way they are. They alL say they're bored. Well, I say you can get bored with being bored and they will have to snap out of it someday. Right now it's the 'in' thing to be negative." Linda "I don't remember anyone I knew being unhappy. None of us had time to think about it. We were far too busy to be discontented or bored. Maybe that's what's wrong — nobody's active enough." QUESTION: Do/did Rollins students have concrete goals? Linda "We all had goals for after graduation. We all thought we were going to succeed at something. I don't remember anyone, teachers, friends or parents saying there was any- thing I couldn't do or be. We received constant reinforce- ment." Jennifer "Today there's little that most students feel they will succeed at. Most know a good deal about national and international problems, the dwindling job market, inflation. The war especially makes them pessimistic about the future. Many just don't bother to plan for it at all. There's constant talk about the issues of the day, and it makes them de- pressed." Linda "We knew we were already in Vietnam in the early sixties, but I don't recall anyone on campus really discussing 'I say you can get bored with being bored, and they (students) will have to snap out of it someday." Jennifer
it. We were too wrapped up in our own world." QUESTION: Are/were students close to one another and concerned about one another's welfare? Linda "I can remember that one day I decided to try a little test. I was always a big Miss Friendly, but for a whole day I didn't speak to or smile at anyone until they made the first overture. You know, no one said hello or even bothered to smile. I realized I had been doing all the work. I learned you seldom get to know anyone without an effort. The sororities and fraternities especially formed cliques, and you had to really make an effort to get to know someone outside your social group. One way to do it was to work on a campus organization like the newspaper or Student Government. Jennifer "One of my main goals is to get students, faculty and administration to work together. Everyone is so busy doing his own thing that there sometimes is a feeling of isolation. Much of the responsibility for making a new cur- riculum work will rest on the ability of students and faculty to relate to each other. Both will have to be committed to the idea of individual learning through close interaction of teacher and student." QUESTION: Were/are women active in top positions on campus? Linda "They were active in everything. The editor of the Sandspur was a woman, and I don't think anyone thought it was unusual when I won my election for president." Jennifer "This year most of the top jobs are run by men — but that's only because they are willing to work. I don't think anyone thought it was strange when I ran for president either."
QUESTION: From your remarks, does it seem as if Rollins College has changed a great deal since 1960? Linda "It sure does ... I'm just glad I didn't have to work on such big issues. Aside from working on the question of the initiation of Student Government, I recall that one of my big responsibilities was seeing that the freshmen wore their beanies. I took that very seriously." Jennifer "I think students have changed very much. They question everything and expect straight-forward answers. Everything is moving so fast today that it's hard not to take everything seriously." IT WAS ALSO GENERALLY CONCLUDED THAT BEANIES WOULD NOT GO OVER IN 1972. The Unique BOOK A YEAR CLUB OF ROLLINS COLLEGE
The BOOK-A-YEAR CLUB (memberships and memorials) has become a tradition throughout the country. An endowed membership of $150 or an endowed Memorial of $150 pro- vides annually in perpetuity an urgently needed book for the Rollins Library. This provides not only for this generation, but generations of young people who will seek educational op- portunities at Rollins for all time to come. A book may be endowed by sending a check payable to Rollins College for the full amount of $150, by three install- ments of $50 each, or, in the case of Memorials, it may be made up by a family group or by friends who give varying amounts from $10 to the full $150. In each book each year is placed a bookplate giving the name of the person becoming a member or the name of the person in whose memory the book is endowed and the name of the donor. Birthdays, Christmas and other anniversaries provide op- portunities for enlarging both memberships and Memorials. As of today, the Book-A-Year endowment totals $245,695.30 toward the urgently needed goal of $450,000.00.

The cookout at Fort Wilderness Friday evening got under way at 7 p.m. and as the old slogan goes "getting there was half the fun", especially if your transportation was the 200 passenger paddle-wheeler "Osceola." She sailed twice from the Poly boat docks for the 30-minute journey to Fort Wilder- ness. The cookout that followed was truly magnificent. How would you like to serve 500 Rollins grads on a beach at night! Spirits flowed, both liquid and non, in preparation for the re- turn of entertainer Chappy McDonnell '51 and his bride-to- be Susan Coddard '65. Their songs and humor delighted all hands including the children, who had their own special re- quests. (Jingle Bells was very popular.) Impromptu class par- ties back at the Poly brought Friday to a sociable close. Saturday, April 15, was a busy day. The athletes enjoyed either a "shot gun" golf tournament on the beautiful Mag-.

A sit-down dinner for 500 followed in the adjoining Columbia Room, prepared and served in an elegant manner, with the special treat a Flaming Baked Alaska. (Where were you when the lights went out?) The usual awards and presentations ceremony followed dinner. JIM DAVIS '58 and his wife from Boca Raton, Florida were recognized as the "free trip winners" to reunion. Not a bad reward for returning that little blue card four months ago. JOHN M. "RED" HARRIS '44 from Houston, Texas, our National Alumni Fund Chairman this year, was also recog- nized. The newly appointed officers of the Alumni Associa- tion were announced. They are: President, DENNIS N. FOL- 10 KEN '56; First Vice President and President-elect, WILLIAM R.

ceived their Rollins plates awards, recognizing their 25th year anniversary. The award given annually to the oldest Alumnus present was given to DONALD A. CHENEY of Orlando, Flori- da from the Class of 1907. By the way, Judge Cheney attended every scheduled reunion event. The award to the Alumnus who traveled the greatest distance went to MYRABETH REECE HUGHES '33 from (you guessed it) Kailua, Hawaii. The final award went to Rollins senior DOUG WELSH as he won the coveted Scholar-Athlete trophy, awarded annually by our Alumni Association. Following President Critchfield's address, the very talented Rollins Singers entertained on stage and did a superb job. The formal banquet proceedings concluding with the singing of the Alma Mater by 500 inspired Alumni. The Rollins Pioneers (1930 and before) had a delightful luncheon on Sunday back at the Student Center. DR. FLOR- ENCE STONE '19 handled the festivities which included the presentation of the Hamilton Holt Medal by Chancellor Mc- Kean to KATHARINE LEWIS LEHMAN '27. Another highlight was the presentation of Rollins Chairs to RAYMOND W. GREENE '23 and to DR. and MRS. ALVORD STONE, both of the Class of 1922, who were celebrating their 50th year anni- versary. The Pioneers then adjourned to the Morse Gallery of Art for an informal garden party. In a patriotic sort of way, Reunion '72 was brought to a brilliant close with the fiery lift- off of Apollo 16 at 12:54 p.m., visible to all. ALUMNI REUNION BEGINS WITH REGISTRATION, GOLF AND TENNIS
