College Retreat
The enthusiastic response of Nazareth Col·
lege students attending the recent NFCCS
sponsored Novacor retreats can be a valu·
able insigbt into the whole idea of student
body retreats.
We must confess that we breathed a sigh
of relief when this year's "advance/ retreat"
was snowed out; not simply because it meant
a longer vacation, but because we felt it
wa$ an easy answer to an uncomfortable
dilemma. We honestly believed that such
large scale retreats could not be profitable
for everyone, and yet we also felt a certain
obligation to attend any such program which
had been carefully planned for the entire
student body. If the retreat had taken place,
a · great deal of effort would have been ex·
pended in siinply getting ourselves enthu·
siastic about going.
Although such retreats are geared for stu·
dents, they are also dealing with a great
many individuals. How can ·one retreat be
the proper and most profitable approach for
every individual?
No matter how well planned and executed
the retreats are, they are. bound to come at
a Urn" which is inconvenient or even dan·
gerous for some percentage of the student
body. Should this percentage feel even
slightly pressured into attending? Further·
more, the one planned retreat for students
is planned at one time during the year. If
that one retreat is missed, there is no op·
portunity to make a retreat 1ater on when
an individual may really want to.
The purpose of Catholic higher education
is to present students with the Catholic
viewpoint, not to indoctrinate them or force
them to accept beliefs and ideas to which
they do not freely and fully commit them·
selves. A .really successful presentation nee·
essarily depends on the mutual consent and
enthusiasm of the presenter and the student
or there is no true communication, no worth·
while understanding.
Consideration should be given to this
question by students from their standpoint
as college women seeking to understand and
be fully committed to Christian ideals. Is
there the possibility of voluntary groups go­ing
on all different kinds of retreats, at all
different times of the year? The answer to
how commitment and enthusiasm can best
be achieved can only come from the stu­dents
themselves.
We question the validity of college-wide
retreats-at a Catholic college. Are we alone?
Responsibility
The discussion on this campus concerning
student freedom appears to be taking a new
direction. Now that we have taken first steps
in the direction of an increase of freedom,
concern has been expressed as to whether
the students are ready to take on the re­sponsibility
that must accompany any action
of this sort. It has been said that Nazareth
now offers us more opportunities for re·
sponsible action than ever before.
If the faculty and administration wish to
see the students accept a part of the respon·
sibiliy of their lives at the college it is nec­essary
to meet them as responsible adults.
More and more this is being" done in every
aspect of our lives here. The beginnings
made by the Faculty-Student committee and
last week's Resident Council meeting are
GLEANER Wednesday, March 16, 1966 We
only two positive steps in this direction. L

t t

r
8 Both of these meetings demonstrated the
gains that can be made by a direct com·
munication between both groups. • • •
The students play an equal role in any
increase in freedom and in responsibility.
We must realize that it is very possible to
explain our views to the faculty and admin·
istration. We must also realize that if we
object to something or felt strongly about
some issue it will never be resolved by un­derground
murmuring. The opportunity for
responsibility (or freedom) is there. The test
of its real worth to us comes only when we,
as individuals, are willing to stand up and
make use of it.
On botH sides we feel that every attempt
made at a real communication can only be
a profitable undertaking. Both groups must
remain open and willing to listen, explain,
question and answer if progress is to con­tinue
being made.
S. C. President
Evaluates Year
Since the second semester has begun,
many of us have felt the need· to evaluate
the efforts which student government has
made this year. For this reason, I have asked
Student Council members to submit reports
of their own individual activities. These re·
ports are available in t.he Undergrad Room.
Anyone is welcome to consult them, par·
ticularly as e.lection time approaches, and
questions ari,se as to the specific responsi­bilities
of the various offices. The particular
achievements of Council are contained in
these reports.
Generally, the emphasis during last se·
mester was to make Student Council a more
efficient organization, with the advantage
for the first time this year of four more class
representatives and the two coordinators.
This semester we hope to improve the ef·
fectiveness of Council as a representative
body, concentrating particularly on the pe·
rennlal problem of communications among
students, Student Council, faculty and ad·
mi.nistration. With this in mind, we are
planiling a special discussion meeting to
which students, faculty, and administration
will be invited.
This year, student government at Naza­reth
has become more involved than ever
before in academic and intellectual matters,
through the Academic Coordinator, Marge
Waters. '67 and by co-sponsoring several
events with the faculty lecture Committee.
This semester, students and faculty will be·
gin to work together formally regarding
academic life in the new Student-Faculty
Committee, organized by Sister St. Cath·
erine and Marge Waters. Among other proj·
ects already begun by Council this semes·
ter are a study of the Orientation program
by the Traditions Committee, headed by
Anne McDona.Id '66, and a revision of Inter­pretations,
the college handbook, by a com·
mittee headed by Elaine Bair '67.
None of the goals of student government
can be realized without serious thought and
interest on the part of all students. Student
government is not simply a learning experi·
ence for a few students. It can be a vital
organization by which students can make
significant contribution to the college in
many areas. Your suggestions and criticism
- most of all your participation-are neces·
sary to make the student organization on
this campus effective.
Student Council meetings are at 7:15 p.m.
on Tuesdays and they are always open to
anyone.

Dear Editor,
It seems Impossible that there
is anyone in this school who is
unaware of the noise problem ln
the library. It bas gotten to the
stage in which everybody gripes
about It but no one makes any
attempt to do a thing to correct
it. Talking out loud is an incon·
siderate act which one would
think would have been left be·
hind in high school.
What it all boils down to is,
unfortunately, this: the students,
(who use the library; who in
college, cannot function without
the library) cannot keep it quiet
enough to be used effectively.
The staff is not a palice force;
Student Council is not a police
force; U one is needed it must
come from the student body,
from the stud.ents within the stu·
dent body who simply can no ::
longer tolerate the talking, who cl$
have ever felt like standing Oft Vol
a table and screaming " Quiet!"
at the students who are talking.
The answer lies within. It Ues by
with the girl who bas the cour·
fge and good sense to ask that tic
the noise stop. Any student may th•
so request any other student, re4
gardless of who she is or what vo
class be is in. to be quiet. Any sh
necessary talking can be done in
the foyer.
ll we will do this, we can eon·
quer the problem, because each
of us is as guilty and as iMo- ou
cent as the next; each of us at co:
one time or another, could either se1
speak or be spaken to. And each
of us must ta.ke it u.POn herself de
to see this ridiculous situation is inJ
ended. qu

From The Horse's Mouth •P
March 17, 1966
Dear Readers,
And a mighty llne top df the
mornin' to you on this gay St.
Pat's Day (How's that for a
Mediterranean Irish?) Say what
did you think of those winds
right on the first day or March.
She- really came right on cue
this year. What teasing hints of
Spring have come our way late·
ly- a soft, warm breeze, a soft·
eoing of the earth. and a mar·
velous uplifting sun. Yep, I guess
the bug's got me. (What a way
to go!) Speaking of going(? )­l
'm off to the horse farm this
weekend. 1 guess we all need a
break about now, so I retreat to
my litUe heaven on earth. I 'm
really not getting paid for this,
but if you ever want to visit a
scenic and wonderfully peaceful
place come to Moravia. It's a
small town on the tip of Owasco
Lake, that's sort of near Auburn.
You'll never regret it. My prob·
!em is that when I go cbere, I
never want to leave (no offense).
Anyway, I'm sure I'U be full of
adventurous t.aJe.s ror you when
I return.
Say, Folks, I know this is a
bit oti my ordinary line of gab,
but just for conversation I'd like
to say a word or two about TV
this year: Yuck! and uno you
believe?M The thing that amazes
me is that after all the big
racket over changing some pro­grams
mid .. year, the new ones
are worse than the ones that
we.re canned. I 'd rather not men­tion
any names ( self·preserva·
lion, you know.) I get quite a
charge out of the togetherness
TV is trying to achieve - you
know with the DriverJs Te.st,
which proved that 99.5% of those
driving shouldn't be; and then
there is the one about "What
Don't You Know About Your
Health?", which made local hos·
pitals look more like Bargain
Day at Edwards' the day after
the program. I think they are
worthwhile especially for the to·
getherness, but one wonders if
they are really working when
you hear such comments as:
" Charlie, wiU you keep your big
yap shut so's I can find out if
you have be art trouble!" Yes,
Sir, they are great. One last
word on TV programming. I'm
not going to pass any judge·
ments, just state the facts and
let you come to conclusions your­self.
The three year old boy I
babysit !or will wiggle and
squirm through "Leave It To
Beaver ... and "Popeye", but do
you know I can't drag him away
from the set or even talk to him
when a commercial is on. He's
completely hypnotized - a n d
these are the so-called adult
commercials.
Well, enough of all this, bow
about a bit of entertainment?
Just a personal comment, I
highly recommend both "Darl·
lng," and a upate:b of Blue."

Bergman Film
Discussed
By Mary Resnick
""Just what did he mean by
that?'' Thi.s was a question one
heard frequently after the Feb·
ruary 26 presentation of IDgmar
Bergman's film WUd Strawber·
rles. On March 8, a group of in·
!crested students met in the sem·
inar room with Sister Thomas
Marion and Mr. Joyce, where
they discussed informally their
various int~rpretations of the
lllm.
Informality was an impartant
aspect of this discussion. Sym·
bois were isolated and meaning
was probed with relish by all the
pa.rticipants. ~[r. Joyce dealt with
the lll.m in primarily mythic
terms, while others were con·
cemed with the underlying reall·
lies the film explored. For nearl)'
two hours, the film was broken
down and each segment examin·
ed. Personal reactions were ex·
pressed and these in tum brought
forth new respanses. ID the end,
no one solution to the original
question bad been settled on, but
each member of the group had
gained some insight through shar­ing
in what others bad seen (or
thought they bad seen).
The lllm bad become a little
more relevant, the levels of
meaning a little clearer. No one
knew !or sure "Just what be
meant by that," but nearly all
agreed that the next film festival
sbould be an aii·Bergman film
festival. One might also add, that
the next film festival should be
followed a week later (after ev·
eryone bas bad a little time to
absorb) by another informal dis·
cusslon hour.

Students To Vote On Proposals
AI the regular meeting of Student Council, March 1st, amend·
•tnt< were accepted for consideration with reaard to the status of
1M chairman of Commuter Board and the method of election of mlnor
dass offic:ers. Seven of the nine proposals were passed and will be
lllltd upon by the Undergraduate Association oa March 18.
The following recommendations were made to Council
by the Commuter Board Study Committ":
I. The Commuter Board should be a distinct organize·
lion on camput, functioning within the limits set for it by
lloe Undergraduate Association and their own constitution.
II. The chairman of the Commuter Board should be a
YOiing member of Student Council. (Resident President
&hould a lso be a voting member.)
The argumcnta for and against these proposals are summarized:
Pro
t 1. To give them the authority and prestige to elfeclively carry
OVl their proJects (a.g., they could collect duu to finance aclivilies
ooncerning commuters only; they could set up a system of repre·
~tntallon and election of girls to the Commuter Board).
2. Resident Council and Commuter Board are set up by the Un·
w craduate Assoeiatlon to deal wltli the specific questions concern·
kiC these two portions of its membership, while Uodergrad deal.< with
4UCStlons coneernlng the enllre student body.
3. To alford equal status with that of Resident Council.
II. I. The chairman should not be expected to attend and partici­pate
in every meeting without having the right to vole.
2. Her position as elected chairman of the Board enables her to
opealt as a representative of this group's particular lnteresl.<.
3. This would keep the chairman of Commuter Board informed on
1<honl buslness which is necesury to her position.
4. 22 people (2.2'){. of the entire student body) does not constitute
ex<csslve representation.
Con
l. 1. A Student Council Committee is usually concerned with the
wbole student body, while Commuter Board represents a specific
lfOUp.
2. A Student Council Commtltee would not be able to sponsor cer·
lain events for commuters only.
s. A separate constitution and oiiieers might lead to a separation
of commuters and residents, rather than the unl6calion which might
be achieved throuab Student Council.
U. I . The students that the choirman is representing are already
rtpresented on Council. ·
2. Not many questions arise in which she would. be called upon
10 speak only for the commuters.
3. Student CouneU is already large enough.
The first recommendation was defuted (S·l4·2). The second was
pused..
Prior to last year, Student Council was responsible for the parking
lot, commuter cafeteria. Smyth lounges and other such matters. Sin«
this was deemed lnelfeetlve, a commuter committee was established.
The day studenls !ell such a committee would give them. better rep­resentation.
This year's Student Council voted to make the commit·
tee bead an honorary member of Council. In elfect, she would hove a
•olc:e, but no vote. ln addition. a committee was establi$hed to d.e·
•ole further study to the status of the Board. This led to the question
of equality of status tor both Rc:1hh:ul Pl'e5ide:ot and Commuter Board
Cbolrman. Early records list the Resident President as an oiiicer of
Undcrgrad. She has generally functioned only as an active member.
The amendment to ARTICLE V, SECTION I would delete Resident
Presldenl !rom the Ust of olfieus, while ARTICLE VI, SECTION 2c
lists the Resident President and Commuter Boord Chairman u mem·
hers or Student CounciL
A proposed policy regarding the permanent status of the entire
Committee bas been tabled until the status of the Chairman Is de·
clded by the student body vote. This pelicy would establish the exist·
ence of the Boord in writing and alve it a freedom o! activity similar
10 thol enjoyed by Social Board.
ARTICLE V, SECTION 2 shall read:
Only members of the Junior class shall be eligible for
the office of President and flrst Vice-President. Only mem·
bers of the Sophomore class shall be eligible for the offices
of second Vice-President and Treasurer, Only members of
the Freshman class shall be eligible for the office of Secre­tary.
This simply disregards olficer qualifications with regard to the Resi·
drnt President.
ARTICLE V, SECTION 9, which lists the dulles oC the Resident
President, will be omitted entiroly.
ARTICLE VU, SECTION I, DIVISION C includes the Commuter
Boord Chairman u the second major officer in th.is division ( Resi·
d•nt President b the other).
ARTICLE VII, SECTION 1, DIVISION E deal.< with the Commuter
Board officers. The wording of the Constitution wou.ld imply a greater
status to this Board than It presently bas, so the proposal to Include
Commuter Board oiiicers as minor olficers (Division E officers) was
defeated (4·16-4).
ARTICLE VU, SECTION 2 shall include a third S«tion compar·
able to the second one of that same section which describes the
method of election of Resident President. The new third section will
describe a similar elcctfon method for lbe Comn1uter Board Chair­man.
However, the amendment does not include the right of the Com·
muter Board to chance the order of election prescribed. (Relldent
Council bas this ri&hl U it Is ", •• for a serious reaSOft ... " and
•• ... after mature deUbtratioc .. .'').
The second area of amendment concerns the method of election
of minor oiiicers. ARTICLE VTI, SECTION 3, lb shall read:
h . Division E.
1. The Junior, Sophomore, and Frsehman classes shall
nominate by secret ballot the Vice-President, Treasurer, and
Secretary, and the Social Board members of thei r class. The
Vic•President of the Fremin Mission Unit shall be nomi·
nated by secret ballot by the Junior class. The Treasurer of
the Fremin Mission Unit shall be nominated by secret bel·
lot by the Sophomore class. The Secretary of the Fremin
Mission Unit shall be nominated by secret ballot by the
Freshman class.
a) (Remains as In present constitution.)
b) To appear on the list of nomineea a stude nt must r•
ceive a total of S"'o of the votes cast. If fewer than 3 t lu·
dents receive S"'o of the votes cast, the list of nomin- shall
consist of the S students with the greatest number of votes
or In the case of a tie, a number to be determined by the
e lection committee.
c) The members of the Junior, Sophomore and Fresh·
man classes shall have the privilege of nominating 1 student
as Social Board representative from t~~Jir class. To appur
on the list of nominees for Social Board a student must re·
ceive S"'o of the votes cut. If fewer than 3 students for
each available Social Board position receive S"'o of the bel·
lots c11t, the list of nomineea shall consist of the 3 stude nts
per available pos ition with the greatest number of voles, or
in the case of a tie, a number to be determined by the
e lection committee.
The arguments for and again.st this proposal are summarized:
Pro
1. Every member of the elass has an equal voice In nominatlng
its elau officers.
2. Batlotinc from the Door creates an unnecessary element or
chonce in the nomination o! minor class olfieers The burden pieced
upon the person woducling Uu::: m,.uuination$ is \lnlai_r. Sbe h•• no way
of knowing which six hands otTer the best chance of a good nominotlon.
3. Unilormily in the nominating procedure will facilitate the
smooth operation of the election schedule and will shorten 11. A ccr·
lain degree of dilflculty must be encountered in trying to sustoln In­terest
lo election proceedingss durlng an extended period of time.
Continuity, clariftcallon and simplification would encourage an in·
formed, enthusiastic electorate.
• · There is no clear constitutional procedure for the election of
Social Board members. This amendment remedies that.
S. This amendment clarifies the position of the election commit·
tee with regard to it function in the nominatinc procedures. It desig·
notes clearly the procedures to be Col~-ed in the event that no one
recelvts a qualifying preentage of the vote.
Con
I . Persons especially suited for a particular oiiice may be over·
looked because she does not have a large enough ballot.
2 The perSOfts with a greater following ore not nec:essorily the
best suited for olfice.
Voting on these amendments will be on Fridoy, March 18, In lower
