kaaners to British colonials, even though many of the former fought in common cause with the British against Germany and Italy. There were rumors, too, that white deserters were welcome and safe in outlying sections of the Union. During a war and at age nineteen one tends to be especially interested in one's immediate condition and not self-consciously to examine experience objec­ tively. But one fact that was clear even to me during time spent in 1942 and 1943 in Egypt, Libya, and Tuni­ sia, often in service with Colonials: the colonial era was ending, and as it did it exposed the fierce animosities that were integral to its structures and to the relation­ ships among colonials and the colonized, indigenous and imported. It has been difficult ever since for me not to consider the South African situation in the light of the certain knowledge that, to the extent that the wei­ fares of its white populations and of a small proportion of its non-white population depend upon the exclusion of most non-whites from access to the frui~s of political power and economic production, it remains a kind of colony, a stubborn vestige of the past. And it is difficult, too, not to consider the South African condition with­ out an awareness of the animosities and fears, the Re­ public's military, economic, social, and political structures have generated among its peoples.

Prior to 1968, foreign study was handled on an ad hoc basis between individuals and the registrar's office, Winslow explains. With the advent of the open curricu­ lum adopted in 1968, he became involved with foreign study advising when he joined the administration as dean of educational services. This position was created to deal with the new educational opportunities and spe­ cial academic options being offered. "Foreign study be­ gan to grow as there were more women students and as it became not disadvantageous financially to go," Winslow says. "It became larger without any college mandate." In 1968, 12 students were enrolled in foreign study programs other than at Trinity's Rome campus.

One reason Trinity has such extensive foreign study participation is that the College's financial aid policy is extremely liberal compared to other colleges, Winslow notes. At his recommendation during the early 1970s, the College officially began allowing students to use fi­ nancial aid awards for study abroad. There were two stipulations: the student's work in a foreign country had to be deemed integral to his or her major course of study and the courses could not be available at Trinity. In 1985, the policy was amended once more. "The dean of the faculty, at my recommendation, approved liberalization of the policy. Any students on financial aid could automatically use that aid for a foreign study program, without a major requirement involved," Winslow explains. "For the students, foreign study provides a real change of pace or sometimes a change of academic di­ rection. It provides a re-invigoration of academic inter­ est," Winslow says. Concerns that students might not return after a semester or two abroad haven't been real­ ized. "Almost all return from foreign study to Trinity to finish their degrees," he adds. Many students experience some degree of "reverse culture shock" upon their return to the United States, IN THE SUNSHINE of Greece, students take a break from Winslow says. To prepare students for that possibility, their studies. he provides them with reading material on the topic and schedules re-orientation sessions once they have re­ turned to campus. • t. Jubilee

Goaltender Art FitzGerald '87 has been a stalwart in the net for the 18-0 ice hockey team. Art has four shutouts to his credit this year and a league-leading 1.84 goals against average.

Despite often having to practice at one site and play games at another, the Bantams proved quite successful in those early years. In the 1966-67 season, under the tutelage of William Berry, Trinity finished 8-2, bettering the 6-3 mark turned in the previous year. Ray Batson took over the reins in the 1967-68 season and one of the first things he did was coax a former Brown Univer­ sity goalie into coaching the Trinity goaltenders. That Brown grad turned out to be John Dunham, the pres­ ent Trinity coach. At the outset, funding the team proved more difficult than any competition the team faced on the ice. The cost of ice time, equipment, and transportation quickly outgrew the team's modest budget. These factors led to the formation of the Trinity Hockey Association in 1963. The association was comprised of parents, friends, and alumni just trying to make ends meet. The group was quite informal at first, but over the years it has grown by leaps and bounds. A constitution was adopted in 197 4 with a president and a board of direc­ tors. Today, the group has a mailing list of 250 and the board of directors oversees a budget in excess of $48,000. A new era was entered when Dunham took over as head coach in the 1969-70 season. Over the next five years, he guided Trinity's traveling hockey show to some excellent records, while competing against schools 32 with established varsity programs. Finally, in 1974, the hockey association raised over $100,000 for an endow­ ment that enabled the team to reach varsity status. No longer a ragtag club team, Trinity soon reached the upper echelons of New England hockey. The team's first E.C.A.C. playoff appearance came in 1976-77. The Bantams lost to Worcester State 7-5 in the opening round of the four team tournament, but they quickly developed a taste for tournament play. The following year (1977-78), Trinity went 10-5 in division III play and earned another playoff berth. The Bantams earned a shot at the title by posting a tremendous 6-4 upset with a 10-5 record in division III. The team went victory over Southeastern Massachussetts.

EDUCATING NEW GENERATIONS

FORMORETHAN 160YEARS, Trinity has pursued its primary mission: The education of successive generations of men and women for life in a free society. Each generation builds on and benefits from the experience and generosity of. those who have gone before. The Campaign for Trinity is the effort by all who value this College to bring their resources to bear in its support. Please join with us in assuring that a Trinity education will continue to be a mark of the highest distinction for generations to come. The Campaign for Trinity seeks $42,000,000 to guarantee the ongoing excellence of a Trinity education. Much of this total will come as major capital commitments from individual alumni and friends, who will be called on by regional campaign volunteers. Since all gifts will count toward the Campaign total, including the Annual Fund, the College asks all its supporters to place Trinity among their highest priorities for charitable gifts over the next three years.
