GROUND BROKEN ON NEW DORM LC HAS FOUR

Construction of a five- sotry dormitory at LaGrange College which will cost almost S1 million was started recently.

Scheduled for completion by the Summer Quarter, 1970, the 146-student facility will be the first step in the col- lege's recently announced $9 million "Margin of Distinction" development program.

Charles D. Hudson of LaGrange, chairman of the LC trustees' buildings and grounds committee, said Connor Brothers Construction Company of Au- burn, Ala., submitted the low base bid of $817,000.

HRISTIAN WITNESS I believe

that one of the most irrspiring places in the world is the Jefferson Memor- ial in Washing- ton, D.C. I have always loved the writings of this

' man, especially the words that are inscribed around the sidine of this Mem- orial. There, emphasized over all the other great writings of this gifted man, are these words, "I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility toward every form of tyranny over the mind of man." I have always pictured Jefferson as he angrily dashed these words off to the English Parliment or to old King George himself. However, I recently dis- covered that it just didn't happen that-a-way. These words were written long after the Revolution and were written to some good olf U.S. citizens. They were written to fine, upstanding, honorable to fine, upstanding, honorable citizens who had just one glaring fault. They wanted to make every- one think just like they thought. As the beginning of school has been much on my mind, these words of Jefferson have taken on a fresh meaning for me. Tyranny over a man's mind can take many forms. It can even occur in an educational setting. Thus, if a professor tells you that his teach- ing and testing methods are none of your business, he's wrong. If an administrator tells you that the administration of this college is none of your affair, he's wrong. If the officials of this City of LaGrange tells you that city gov- ernment is none of your affair, he's wrong. Friends, it's all our business, this city, college, stte business, this city, college,

state, nation and world. I think there is a real connection be- tween these words of Jefferson and those of John Donne when he says, "Every man's death dimini- shes me." This could well be

broadened to say that every man's failure diminishes my success. Add to this a realiza- tion that we are not met here only to prepare, but to begin and you realize that great days of great adventure lie ahead of us this year. The task will be hard, the burdens will be heavy, and the road rough. Let us now vow tc be equal to it all. Know that there is help for those who will seek it. "Come unto me, all ye that are haevy laden."

SELAH.

Earning a degree at LaGrange in 1960, Becham taught in the public schools for two years. He then studied for a master of librarianship degree at Emory University, graduating in 1963. In 1968 he attended a summer institute oh "computer - based library information systems" at the university of Missouri.

Hampton, a native of West Point who grew up in LaGrange, teaches algebra, trigonometry, and calculus at Druid Hills High School in the DeKalb County system. He has held office in District Four of the Georgia Mathematics Council.

SUMMER

SEMINAR

IN ISRAEL

RATED

"OUTSTANDING"

"I thoroughly enjoyed the trip, found it a very educational experience, and would love to go back."

This is the way one LaGrange College student-a coed summarized her reaction to the college's recent study - travel seminar to Israel.

The 14 seminar partici- pants, under the direction of Dr. Charles F. McCook and Dr. David I Naglee of the LC Department of Religion, did plenty of travel- ing and on-the-spot-studying of the Holy Land and its present culture during the five - week long seminar.

But along with the study and travel came a considerable amount of honest - to - goodness work. To cut their cost of seeing Israel and to taste everyday life in the country, the students - and professors - lived and worked on a farm, called a kibbutz, for three weeks.

3 LC PROFESSORS RETURN TO STUDIES FOR HIGHER DEGREES

LaGrange College win probably begin its 139th aca- demic year in September with its most stable facultv in recent years.

That was the .word today from Dr. C. Lee Harwell, aca- demic dean, who said it is ap- parent the four - year coeduca- tional college will lose only three of the 46 professors who taught during the 1968-69 year- and all three are returning to studies toward completion of doctoral degrees.

The trio includes Brandon H. Beck, assistant pro- fessor of history, who will begin study at the University of Illinois in Chicago; Miss Virginia P. Canady, assistant professor of health and physical education, who will commence academic work at the University of Georgia; and William E. Reeves, associate professor of health and physical education and director of athletics, who will resume studies at the Uni- versity of Alabama.

The LC seminar went to the Kibbutz Yifat ( "The Beauti- ful" ), located five miles west of Nazareth on the road to Haifa. In existence for 16 years, the com- munzl farm's primary crops are plums and pears and these pro- vided the LaGrange group's work responsibilities.

The students spent their mornings in the orchards, and even had breakfast there. Coed Melissa Elm of Tampa, Fla., re- ports, "We got up at four every morning because we had to be out in the orchards picking pears by 4:30 a.m."

They worked in the orchards six days a week and rested on "Shabbat" (Sabbath). But the experience was not all work, however. The afternoons were free, and the LC students utilized them in various ways.

One student. reported, "We'd been there a week or so when they realized that we were there to work hard, see their country, and learn about their customs. As a matter of fact, it turned out that we were the most sought - after workers on the kibbutz."

Yifat, the kibbutz where the group was located, has 990 members - slightly larger then average size.

The communal farms be-

came popular in Israel after World War II when Jews, seek- ing political refuge from Europe, streamed into the newly formed nation of Israel. In exchange for homes, these refugees provided the I abor needed to recultivate the fertile lands which were ly- ing fallow, I roving to be bene- ficial to both Israel and the kibbutznik.

"I found the Israeli people well ' educated and aware," one LC student recalled. "Some could speak three or four languages, including English."

Before the LaGrange party left the kibbutz, the foreman of the pear orchards presented each student with a memento - a small print of an Israeli land- scape. Such gift - giving was said to be unprecedented.

The work- study- travel seminar gave the students only a taste of life in Israel - but it was enough to whet the appetite. Despite the fact they worked hard and had to "rough it" for four weeks, the LC students are en- thusiastic about Israel and sev- eral are determined to return.

The Rev. Charles Davis, a MSthodist minister from Canton in the group, said, "I feel the tour was invaluable, and I cer- tainly recommend the seminar tour in preference to tourist type tours."

Tom Nelson jokingly ad- vised Dr. McCook, "On your next group - try referring the candidates to us - we will give them the sales pitch."

Dick Lowrey of Musella may have summed up the feelings of the group: "I went expecting to find much of interest, and I found what I was expecting - plus."

Other LC students in the seminar were Jovce Fountain of Byromville, Janice Holbrook of Mableton, Fred Kight of Cordele, Charles Kraemer of Melbourne, Fla., Martin Liebman of Greens- burg, Pa., and Kay Theus of LaGrange.

Nancy Long of Newnan and Shorter College, Harry Morgan of Clarksboro, N.J., and Asbury (Ky.) College, and Walter Turner of LaGrange and Castle Heights (Tenn.) Academy. and Dr. McCook's son, Charles Jr., were also in th'e tour party.

In addition. Dean Harwell said Samuel G. Hornsby Jr., assistant pro- fessor of English, has been grant- ed a leave of absence to study for a doctorate at Auburn Uni- versity.

In these days when many colleges and universities ex- perience a large annual turn- over in teaching personnel, the LC administrator credited better selection procedures and excellent morale as aids in maintaining faculty stability at LaGrange.

Professor Beck, a native of Newark, Delaware, has taught at LaGrange for two years. He earned an under- graduate degree at Gettysburg, (Pa.) College and a master of arts degree at the University of Virginia, and also has studied at the University of Vienna.

A member of the LC faculty since 1962, Miss Canady earned a bachelor's degree at Coker (S.C.) College and a master's at University of Tenne- ssee, and also has studied at Appalachian (N.C.) State Uni- versity. She is a native of Summerville, S.C.

Professor Reeves is a native of Columbus, Miss., and received an undergraduate de- gree at Mississippi State Uni- versity and a master's degree at University of Mississippi. Before his LC appointment a year ago, he had completed re- sidence requirements at Uni- versity of Alabama for the doctorate.

administration, organizations- independent as well as fraternal Excellence in the classroom de- pends on two factors - ability and involvement. Ourability to have an excellent year is unquestioned, but our willingness to be involved in the total life of our college is something else. In the past we have been willing to let less than fifty-five percent of the student body completely control our Student Government Association,

only a handful have really cared about the Hilltop News and Quadrangle, yet all were willing to criticize. Criticism has a most important place in life, but involvement ma/ be the answer to criticism. To ask questions is good. To ask questions, however, and not search for answers is un- forgiveable. Let us ask questions of all, like Socrates, from the highest and lowest in our college society and, by our questions, seek to find our answers to an excellent year.

A native of LaGrange, Professor Hornsby joined the LaGrange faculty in 1966. He was educated at University of Georgia, earning both bachelor's and master's degrees. He also has studied at Oxford College of Emory University, University of London (England), and Auburn University.
