Eagle talks to you. In her quarters instruc­ tion takes on real meaning. In a classroom below, used as a berthing area at night, aca­ demic courses were being taught for credit. In the past the courses were professionally oriented, such as seamanship and naviga­ tion, germain to a summer training program, but now organizational behavior had been in­ cluded. The ship had become an experiment upon which the students reflected and ana­ lyzed. They were required to keep a journal where they documented their observations and examined their feelings and those of their shipmates. On the watch I stood, I saw men and women cadets on the throttle, taking bear­ ings and learning other duties. The Coast Guard is gender blind. Working together, male and female cadets learn every area of responsibility. In the CIC (Combat Information Center) I found students plotting contacts and figuring true wind and the movement of other ships. First Class cadet Alan Watka from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, was taking readings from a radar and using a plotter to assist the OOD in evaluating contacts. Headed for service as a deck officer on a medium endurance cutter, he was shooting for his own command. "I love the operational part of the Guard." he said. "I love being on the water." In the navigation shack, I found First Class Cadet Dominick DiBari, from Mastic Beach, Long Island, giving position reports, and maintaining a celestial running fix in ad­ dition to keeping track of the ship on charts. "I'm providing information on exactly where we are," he said. "I've been laying down track lines all the way to Acapuico. At 10 o'clock our distance was 1,083 nautical miles; we have to make 7.73 knots to be at the l Acapuico I harbor." "I'd like to go on to flight school or become an engineer, go to postgraduate training," he told me later. Most cadets generally choose one or two paths—either "going deck," which means be­ coming a deck watch officer, or going for engi­ neering. Later on in their careers, it's possi­ ble to shift over, at least from engineering to operations. But they all go to sea when they graduate. "It's a tradition we're proud of," Lt. Dujmovic beamed, USA

Julie Osinski, a senior marketing ma­ jor, said, "It's a travesty to separate the institutions of college and drinking. To close the one place students can go to without driving is pathetic." he Rat may not be in danger of T closing, because excluding the pe­ riod ABT was on campus, the legal drinking age has not, in reality, been en­ forced more strictly this semester than it has in the past. According to Taylor and others, the enforcement of the law has merely been given more lip-service. The University of Miami seems to be heading in the direction of a relatively dry campus. Pressure is coming from all di­ rections and making it more difficult for underage students, who constitute the large majority of undergraduates, to drink. The fraternities, the Rathskeller and the residence halls all now enforce stricter policies. Dr. Butler's office is currently organiz­ ing a task force on substance abuse. The group will hopefully address the prob­ lems the University currently faces and find methods to solve them. According to Sheila Smith, resident assistant at Stan­ ford Residential College, "We need to take the emphasis off drinking and give students something else to do." According to Public Safety Director Jo­ seph Frechette, there are still relatively few alcohol-related incidents reported to the police. However, with tighter and tighter restrictions now being placed on would-be student drinkers at the Rat and elsewhere on campus, one can only guess how much more unsafe UM stu­ dents will be in the future, if they are not allowed to consume alcohol in a con­ ' I trolled environment within safe walking distance of their dorms.
