Summer Supplement
With 1966 Sigillum
This year, for the first time,
there will be a supplement to
the yearbook that will include
end-of·lbe-year events, such as
graduation and the senior ball.
It will be sent to seniors this
summer and available to underclassmen
next year. This supplement
will be twelve pages long
and will fit In the back of the
tlum.
The supplement will give next
ear's SiCillum stair an oprlunity

nted as ordinary people who

people who surround them.
The main parts in the play

critics, Tlie Trial stars Anthony
Perkins, J eanne Moreau, and
Romy Schneider.
If student response to this first
film Is indicative of future suc·
cess of a continuing liJm festival,
such a program will hopefully be
Instituted for the 1966·67 school
year. A group of Interested students
and faculty have promoted
this first liJm, in the hope that
a eontinuU., program of this sort
would provide cultural excite·
men\ and stimulation for the stu·
denta. faculty, and guests of
Nazareth, as well as prestige tor
the eollege. Msuming student
response, a selection of ten to
twlevc foreign and domestic art
films will be chosen for airing
on Saturday nights. Films by
Bergman and Fellin!, for ex·
ample, as well as foreign eomedits,
will be included; titles
now being considered include
Tbe Mapi&etllt Sevea, Tbe Red
Duert, Tbe World of Apu, and
Citizen Kane. Croup and individual
discussion will follow If the
viewers so choose, perhaps with
an oceasslonal guest speaker. It
Is the hope of the studcnt-facully
group that through this proaram
the campus will be excited about,
rather than foreed into, cultural
response.
The organizing group consists
of Chris Coleman, Judy Frank,
Marse Waters, Miss Well$, Mr.
Joyce, and Sister Marie Angela.
Marge Waters said that she feels
this program is an excellent
illusstration of student · faculty
cooperation whieh in the past bas
not been fully realized.

Orientation Proposals
The Traditions Committee bas submitted
a number of proposals to Student Council
concerning Freshmen Orientation. Most of
the recommendations center around an emphasis
on the academic side of college life.
The Committee has suggested that the fresh·
men class arrive a few days before the
upperclassmen to facilitate adjustment.
They also wish to initiate a summer read·
ing program which would be followed by
group discussion after arrival at Nazareth.
After the discussion on campus this year
concerning the academic atmosphere, the
Gleaner feels. that . these proposals are es·
pecially significant. The first four days in
college a_re, of course, confusing and diffi·
cult. U freshmen are trying to adjust to
classes and the work involved, as well as
trying to establish their social life, the ad·
justment becomes unnecessarily difficult.
Also the variety of parties, mixers, and pic·
nics which take place during these days
have a tendency to detract from the import.
ance of the academic side of college.
We feel that this added emphasis on the
Academic will help incoming classes towards
an awareness of the benefits and excite·
ment of an intellectually· orientated life
while in college.
COMMITTEE REPORTS
Marge Waters, this year's academic coordinator,
has successfully launched a faculty·student commit·
tee to discuss topics of academic relevance on
this campus. A short luncheon meeting enabled
membe.rs to get to know each other; a longer
meeting following a dinner together opened up
many areas or interest This committee's goal
i$ to ofler suggestions for sharpening academic
focus at Nazareth College. Already existing or·
ga.nlzations can then operate on the suggestions.
But the committee does not exist to provide only
Its members with an opportunity to make sugges·
tions; quite the contrary, it is a forum ror the
entire faculty·student college group. •
It was decided that it Is or central importance
that students be aware of tbis group, and realbe
&hat they can present to · it any problems related
to their aeademlc life. AnY memb<r of the com·
mltlte may be contacted and will present the
issu• to the group if she requests this, but· it is
necessary that the student make herseU known to
the committee membtr she asks to make her re·
quest.
Discussion so far has included a consideration
of faculty·student relationships: a faculty member
raised the issue that perhaps some faculty are too
overconcerned about their pupils, not leaving to
them the Initiative in asking for adviee. Some
students felt that especially freshmen need guid·
anee and often would not take tbe initiative, then
suffer afterward because or early deficiencies.
The example was given of the need to realize that
a good average Is required for graduate school

maintaining quiet and then have students vote on
these suggestions. Additional study space was seen
to be a curl'Cnt need. Room 12S bas been assigned
for study use: with the hours posted when it is
free. Tbis move was designed to help students
avoid searching for an empty room. Freshman
orientation and other topies also received attention.
Committee members this year are ltfr. Butzow,
Sister Dorothea, Mr. Joyce, Sister Jane, Mrs.
Neuman, M<s. Pixley, Mrs. Bosscher, Sister Stello
Regina, Sister Saint Catherine, Eileen Smyntek,
Elaine Tantillo, Mary Ellen Foody. Martha Ball·
ing, Sue Gold, Cathleen P. Walsh, Ursula DeVonls,

From the Horse's Mouth
April 28, 1006
My dear friends,
Ob, folks, if your vacation was as wonderful as
m.Jne I ne:edn't ask how refreshed you . £eel. Of
course, there were those Bahama coconut hunters.
As you can guess, I went lo my favorite retreat.
Moravla. It is just gorgeous at this time of year,
and sunny mornings (at least). enabled me to ride
every day. It was a bit cool for Easter finery,
but r was dreSsed to kiiJ anyway. We had a bit
of excitement in Moravia Easter eve. A palm
fire in the cihurcb. It sure killed the crowd for tbc
night'~ services. 1 counted six. WeU. it is a small
town anyway.
Spring is really coming around. isn't it? t jus~
saw some blossoming forsythia today. and such a
flock o£ male grosbeaks that took my breath .;;away
with their gorgeous yellow coloring. I don't know
anyone who doesn't like spring, do you?
Amidst stac.ks of books, index cards, dJsorgan·
iz:ed thoughts, threatening finals and other pleas·
antries of student life, r can't help but take a min.
ute or two to day·drcam about the Junior Prom.
It's the firsl a_nd Jast one- imagine it? When you
lhink of it, every moment is the last o! its kind
as soon as its pa.sses. It's almst frightening.
You know if we eve.r can be sympathetic to an·
olher studen.l, it Is t.o the Seniors at this time of
year. J have never seen such haggard, battle·
wearyy looks in my life as I saw the day of
''Comps" . Can you help but feel for them?
I'm t~dmltting to a slight case of stage fright as
my trip to Albany approaches. My big chance has
fina1ly come. l've always wanted to be a Sena.·
tor .• and no'" for four days I am going to be one,
at the N. Y.S. College Mock Senate. Don•t worry
too much, it's just for pretend. 1 can only do tcm·
porary barm. that is, unless some of those for
reaJ JegisJat ors get wind of some of my revolu·
tionar-y ideas. I'm sure my coUeagues wHJ keep
me reasonably under controL It should be a great
e-xperience.
Oh, I hope it is not too late to give the Pioneer
crew a pat on the back for that superb April
Fool's issue. J thought it was a consistenUy well
done job of campus wit. Hats off to you jokers.
f'm beginning to over~excecd my space aUot·
ment so I guess I better provide you with some
pre·exam di versions. and then leave quietly.

DECISION ON N.F.
DUE THIS WEEK
On March 28, 1006, Student
Council passed tbe NFCCS rec·
ommendation presented by the
eampus delegates. On April 3 a
fourth point was added. prompt·
ed by the petitions circulated the
previous week and passed by
Council.
Tbe recommendation reads:
"As an integral part or the 3
year evaluation period or NFCCS
as its ex.ists on Nazareth's cam·
pus, we make the following
recommendations:
.. 1. That Nazareth College dis·
alliliate with NF at least for the
school year 1966·67.
"2. That t h e Undergraltuate
Assoc'la.tions eod two girls as ob·
servers to the National Conven·
lion to be held in Cincinnati in
August.
"3. That NFCCS be watched
carefully perhaps by a commit·
tee of Council and investigated
nationally a_nd r egionally so that
a definite decision can be
reached by June 1967 or 1006
(the year deponding upon the
recommendation of the commit·
tee and on lhe approval ol Stu·
dc.nt Council).
" 4. That a committee be es·
tabllshed immediately which will
study and constructively criticize
NF, and fo rward its suggestions
to the National Office."
Student Council and the cam·
pus delegates view this as an·
otber way to evaluate and study
NFCCS conslructi vcly and ob·
jec:Uvely. The recommendation
will now be voted uPOn by the
student body as it involve.-; a
Constitutional Amendment, tak·
ing the NF de i e~ate off Council.
Resident Council
Elections Results
By 1\hry Ann Eagan
Now that I_ am Resident Presi·
dent, I am anxious 1o begin work
on my plans lor next year. The
resident body can no longer be
thou1:ht of as a close family be·
cause .of the increasing number
of resident studenls. Because of
this growth. many of the present
rules need to he· investigated and
reevaluated. The particular rules
which immediately come to mind
are smoker hours, smoker attir·e,
and weekend curfews.
Another area where 1 would
like to see much Jmprovcmcnt is
sporls. With the Commuter
Board and the Novitiate, it
would-be nice to set up a se.ries
of sporting, events such as base·
ball. tennis, and basketball.
Working with the Commuter
Board will make it easier to set
up a system of rides for those
girls who want to go horseback
ridJng. or swimming in an area
high sc.booi pool.
With more !requent movies on
the weekends. and some dorm
mixers arranged with Social
Board, some of the gripes may
be eliminated. But for those crit·
ieisms that remain , there will
be smoker gripe sessions at least
twice a semester.
We scm must remember that
change docs not occure over·
night, but is gradual. The other
officers o£ Resident Council -
Betty Osta. vice president: Chcr·
yl Chesler, treasurer; and '-'Ian·
dy Rammel, secretary - and I
are looJUng forward to an active
year. By ourselves we can do
little; with your support much
can be accomplished.

ton was, much to the chagrin of
my optlmUtie but unfounded illu·
slons, an exhausting, discolll'alf·
inr. embarrassin&, and thorough·
lY enli&htenin& forty-hour mental
exercise. I was forced to admit
(Inwardly) that the ma.in body
of Nanreth College students Is b
world apart from the main·
stream of higher educational ••·
tlvities.
I was in the position of wantinr
very earnestly to defend my
college, and finding that I had
no means to do so. Yale, Har·
van!, Saint John's, NYU, Colum·
bla and more Ivy League, city
u 11 I v e r s i t y and multiversity
schools were represented. Those
repruentativu we r e familiar
with the educational, financial,
political and social poUdes of
their Institutes, and considered
their communic.atioo systems -
especially the campus newspaper
- effective policy-mating, and
polley-lnBuencing organs, as well
as functioning calendars of
events. Feeling very unsure and
very insignificant, I raised sew·
eral specific issues (such as the
severe lack, of funds peculiar to
all small institutions, and wos
met, not by the verbal and psy·
chological invective to be expect·
ed from so mighty an academic
and journalistic (Ne,.-swedr. N.Y.
Syncllcate) gathering, ( I found
later that other small sc.bools
shared my feeling. UPOft r aising
similar issues), but by utter dis·
m.lssal of the Importance of the
educative role of the small col·
lege. It was rather disconcerting
to find that not only did I know
so little about my college, but
that whether I did or not was or
no consequence, for it was not
at all considered an effeeUvc institution.
There are definitely adminls·
tratlve and faculty problems at
Nazareth College. I am not here
eoncerne<l wilb them-1 am very
concerned about the complacency
of the student body with record
to these problems as well as with
recard to the advantages of the
Colle&e (and I must admit my
eoneem is based upoo my own
cuilt of this complacency). Tbe
problem, I think, is the tendency
to view the administration aod
the faculty as monolithic units
which move occasionally at
odds, but generally together. It
should be more generally under·
stood that any "pronouncement"
mnde by either the adminlslrn·
tlon, the faculty, or both has
been reached only after long
meclltatlon and long deliberation
among Individuals who have pre·
judiees, have opinions, are in·
terested. Wben approached for
an inte11igent reason and with
an intelligent proposal, they will.
generally speaking, co m m i t
tbemsdvu one way or another

assistance. It is to their tlwn
interest as well as to ours.

thought expressed at the tea

With Mary An.n A.iello, she has
tackled what she feels Is a cen·
trat problem in American Literature:
why the American mind
i_n literature tends to see woman
as one extnme or another-as
the harlot, or u the devourinJI
mother. Tbls theory involves the
idea.s of sex as a death wish, the
rape or the motherland, father·
lessness, and Calvlnl•m, and the
girls are presently working their
theory' into the form· or • play.
It is this kind of Intense·
thought and activity that have
lead to the hqnors Rosemarie has
received. Her eJection lo the Na·
tional Honor Society this year
was only a preface to her pres·
ent situation - that or being
soug.ht · after by highly · reputed
graduate schools. Three weeks
ago, Rosemarie was awarded
the Woodrow Wilson Fellowship,
a grant subsidlted by the Ford
Foundation to encourage gifted
students to "seriously consider a
career in collee:e teaching". Ro
plans to do her considering at
the University or tllinois, where
the fellowship covers her tuition

research grant. The Univer·

You're at a mass assembly of
strange and eager college people
and the !coder calls out your
name. Even if you don't have a
funny nome you're embarrassed.
But you brave the crowd, for •
getting your shyness and step up
to elalm your list or the five
most perfect men in yOUr life to

you read the names and you're
so exdted and ruess what-you
don't know any of the guys with
whom you are supposedly most
computable. What's worse- you
might know one. (Take it from
there.) Guess what else- shy you
is told to \'Cnture forth and seek
out nil five or these strange
white knights.
However, onee again forgetting
your shyness, you find yourself
anxiously approaching hundreds
and hundreds of males-especial·
ly the dashing among them -
hopefully. Some say " Why, yes,
I am White Knight" and then you
say "Well, I am Nell." Sometimes
you are somewhat dis·
appointed, sometimes you are
glad (especially if after a computable
converlllion he asks you
to Spring Weekend.) When be
says no. you swallow hard, take
courage. forget more of your
sh. yncss and try aga I n.

the evening if you're not too
tired from the search, you can' t
