3 Thus the Pitzer History Project was born. Six students enrolled in a special history seminar and the instructor in­ terviewed all but five members of the graduating class. We also collected as many of the written records of these early years as we could and de­ vised a permanent filing system for our archives. In the years since 1968, we have con­ tinued to interview a percentage of most graduating classes, and now have approximately 300 student interviews · o.! .\ ~ ... t \ '.J on tape. On the occasion of the ten-year reunion, we re-interviewed nine Pitzer alumni from the first graduating class. Our tape collection contains interviews with thirteen faculty members, many of whom have since left the College. Presidents Atherton and Atwell granted us multi-hour interviews, which remain under seal with the Oral History Pro­ gram of the Claremont Graduate School. In the spring of 1982, beginning with four of the earliest faculty members, we began a series of interviews with col­ leagues about the intellectual influences that have shaped their thoughts and their teaching. By collecting a number of such interviews, we will gather ma­ terial for a description of the intellectual Early campus scene. Photo: Arthur Dubinsky climate of the College over the years. The Pitzer Oral History Project owns approximately ·thirty tapes which re­ cord specific events in the life of the College, such as Town Meetings, fac­ ulty meetings, and President Atwell's announcement of his resignation. Our archive of written documents has also grown considerably. Box after box ac­ cumulated underneath the work table in my office. Finally, Allison Brill '83, Pitzer's temporary archivist, began classifying documents, now located in a Pitzer History Room in Avery Hall, and wrote a paper providing a basis for dis­ cussion of the proper archival disposal of Pitzer records, a question as yet unresolved.

Russe,ll Le Donne '83 in his 1982 study, "A Decade of Differences: 1972-1982," found that both 1972 and 1982 graduates tended to qualify their answers and be quite self-critical, a tendency which he attributed to Pitzer's educational stress on complexity. Words like "jive, sham, hep, hip, hassle, groovy, cool, and love­ in" disappeared from 1982 student vo­ cabularies; 1982 students, less irritated by the Pitzer stereotype, seemep more self-confident; social life at.

Consider what happened last year when one of the college's history classes was "too big." The class went to Mexico. The seminar in history, which examines theories and methodologies of historical analysis, is required of all juniors majoring in the subject, and the class of I983 boasts one of the largest crops of history graduates yet. Profes­ sor Werner Warmbrunn needed to work long hours when the class sometimes split into two groups to facilitate dis­ <::ussion. Since each of the twenty-five students had to give a forty-five minute historiographical presentation, he an­ nounced that the class would have to meet some weekend to listen. And lis- ten. And listen. However, in order to make the _ weekend more palatable for all con­ cerned, Professor Warmbrunn encour­ aged us to consider extra-Claremont locales. And when Russ Le Donne '83 and Professor Allen Greenberger suggested Ensenada, Baja California, the Pitzer History Seminar in Mex­ ico was initiated. On a sunny Friday in April, Professors Greenberger, Warmbrunn, and Mary Ann Jimenez set off in the Pitzer van for Ensenada. "It was unique," reflects Warmbrunn. "For the first time, the whole history field group went off on a conference together." The weekend was organized as a simulation of "real-life" historical con­ ferences. Right after we settled into the motel, we were summoned into the "conference room," an enclosure near the motel's pool hastily equipped with card tables and folding chairs, where the panel of faculty addressed the subject of "Historians and History," discussing what had drawn them into their field of study and what kept them interested in it. When the conference adjourned for the evening, some students locked themselves in motel rooms, frantically Russell LeDonne )83 on the beach at Ensenada.

Sunshine and the pool would wait until the noon break, when faculty and students attempted to convince the other vacationers that they really were members of a history conference.

In addition, there was a wide market for labor and much geographic and even social mobility among labor­ ers. These factors, combined with a matter-of-fact attitude toward sexual and even religious deviance, suggests to me that the Englishmen of the 17th cen­ tury were far more libertarian than the colonists were to be even in the 18th century. The unremitting religiosity and mysticism through which the col­ onists viewed much of their experience was clearly lacking among the English,

9 traditional interpretations of 17th and 18th century American history. Since my own work has been con­ cerned with this question in the colonial period, I was also interested in English perceptions of deviance in this period. In England, the responses to most kinds of deviance seem to have beer, legitimized and institutionalized earlier. The perception that there was nothing that filled the Englishmen with horror (as opposed to the many things that filled the colonist with horror) was cor­ roborated by other historians working in witchcraft, sexuality and poverty in England's social history. What are the long-range implications of this research for my professional life ? The work I did on deviance in 17th and 18th century England has already had a great impact on my own research on madness in colonial America. The dif­ ferences in the English and colonial reactions are seemingly structural rather than cultural in nature, and these very differences have helped me illumi­ nate the underlying dimensions of the colonial response. Most importantly, I now have to re­ think my approach to the colonial period in my teaching. I have discarded many of the historiographic truisms about English history learned from my graduate school days and am develop­ ing a slightly different version of the colonial experience, based on my work and not on inherited arguments. As I understand more clearly what it meant to be English in the 17th and 18th Cen­ turies, I also have a new comprehension of what it meant to be American. Finally, I have begun to redirect my own research interests as a result of the Eng­ lish experience and now wish to do more work on the relationship between English social history and colonial his­ tory. It is because of this that I can say with confidence, I shall return to East Anglia! Mary Ann Jimenez in the classroom.

10 HE TWENTIETH century has T seen the end of the colonial era under which Europe dominated the world. This transformation was shaped by many Third World leaders of whom none was more remarkable than Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Born into a very traditional family in a remote part of India relatively untouched by British influences, Gandhi from childhood encapsulated many attitudes and traits which influenced not only his life but the course of Indian nation­ alism. In hisAutobiography: My Experi­ ments With Truth he has given a re­ markably honest portrait of his youth. Gandhi believed himself to be a weak, inadequate person with no particular talents. In fact, he was sure that he was a coward: "I used to be haunted by the fear of thieves, ghosts, and serpents. I did not dare to stir out of doors at night. Darkness was a terror to me." In his personal sense of inadequacy Gandhi differed from most other revolutionary leaders, who were extremely confident youths, yet this feeling mirrored a simi­ lar attitude among the Indian elite in the face of British rule. The fact that Britain had conquered India and ruled her using little physical force seemed clear evidence to both Indians and British that the Indians were weaklings. Gandhi If this were in fact the case, continued British rule was justified and inevitable. by Allen Greenberger Until the arrival of Gandhi on the scene in the 1920'S, all attempts to break out of this trap had been futile. Indian nationalists had tried both parliamen­ tary and terrorist tactics which, while achieving some results, had remained dependent on essentially British-based values. So long as this was the case, Indian self-respect and confidence were impossible to achieve. II A second problem which the young Gandhi faced was his sexuality. Married at the age ofthirteen, he took enormous pleasure in the discovery of sex with his child bride Kasturbai. A dramatic inci­ dent brought the recognition of the need for self-control. At the age of fif­ teen he was serving as nurse to his seri­ ously ill father. Relieved by an uncle, he went to his wife and demanded that they have sexual relations despite the fact that Kasturbai was seven months pregnant. During the act there was a knock on the door and Gandhi was told that his father had died. Gandhi's guilt was compounded by the fact that the baby died a few days after its birth. The need to control himself regard­ ing sex eventually worked itself out into a system of total control. In this act of controlling himself, Gandhi found the answer both to what he perceived as his lust and also to his general weakness. Self-control was an aspect of traditional Hindu thought; Gandhi transferred it from the private sphere to the public. Through self-control it was tradition­ ally thought that one attained power not only over one's self but over one's environment and the cosmos. Given the central Hindu tenet of the identity be­ tween the world soul and the individual soul, this made sense. With self-control one had power. For Gandhi the process of self-control began with his refusal to eat certain foods and the acceptance of celibacy and developed into fasting. His completed system involved the refusal to follow laws which he deemed unjust, not to force others to do what he wanted (although it often had this ef­ fect), but to demonstrate strength by commitment to the truth. Once this definition was reached, Gandhi showed the path for both him­ self and for the Indian people to over­ come their sense of inadequacy. Up to

15 Pitzer ProfIles

Stephen L. Glass by Kristin L. Olsen '7I

HE FIRST TIME Stephen L. T Glass taught Latin, a girl fainted when he called on her because she was so nervous about learning Latin that she forgot her own name. That was Steve's initiation into the "awesomeness" of the study of Latin and Greek. "The nature of the discipline creates its own distance," says Glass, John A. McCarthy Professor of Classics, "providing teachers of that discipline that same aura of remoteness." He pauses a moment to reflect. " ... a dis­ tance not necessarily pedagogically helpful." While most classicists prefer the intel­ lectual climate of the East, Glass opted for the sunshine of his native California after receiving his Ph.D. in classical ar­ chaeology from the University of Pennsylvania. Pitzer, the newest sister college to his alma mater Pomona Col­ lege ('57 - "the Bronze Age") wanted to include that most traditional of the liberal arts. With the addition of Pitzer to the former Pomona-Scripps program, the first of several joint programs that exemplify the advantages of the cluster system bloomed into "a tremendous classics program with offerings rich in number and breadth of subjects for un­ dergraduate colleges - 25-30 courses annually;" says Glass. In addition to elementary, inter­ mediate, and advanced Latin and Stephen L. Glass Greek, courses range from "Women in JohnA. McCarthy Professor of Classics in his office. Antiquity" and "Intellectual History of Photo: David H. Wells )79 Greece" to "Classical Mythology" and "Greek Art and Archaeology." The de­ partment also sponsors an external studies program in Rome. Several other programs have been built on the classics model, including linguistics, art history, and Asian studies. The creation of the McCarthy chair, through the generosity of the John A. McCarthy and Irvine Foundations, as­ sures Pitzer's place in the joint program.

The .vagaries of politics drove me to graduate school at UC Berkeley in urban planning, majoring in hous­ ing finance. I've been back in Washington for two years now as a career bureaucrat at the Office of Management and Budget in the Housing Branch. Perhaps the most interesting job I've had since Pitzer days was as a photographer with the Smithso­ nian Institution. This experience melded my double major in history and communications very well.
