Sunday night's performance of CARMINA BURANA was more than just "something different" — It was magnificent enough to draw a standing ovation and many good comments afterward. The singers, dancers, and musicians all succeeded in doing a beautiful version of Orff's scenic cantata in a way Orff might have liked. Before the cantata , the concert choir sang a few numbers which were mostly light and spiritual in quality , proving a marked contrast to the emphasis on the physical in CARMINA. These included "Prayer to Jesus" by Oldroyd and "Alleluia " by Randall Thompson. A highlight of this section was "Geographical Fugue" bv Toch , a spoken piece which concentrated on the rhythms and sounds of "Trindad..and the big Mississippi and the town Honolulu and the lake..." and more. It was fun to listen to. Following the choir , pianist John Couch and dancer Gerald Teij elo by "Prelude " performed Debussy. CARMINA , when it finally came on, produced excitement from the very start with the prologue "0 fortuna ". The movement and brief costumes merely enhanced the power and life of the music itself. The performers seemed to really enjoy doing the show, which made the audience really enjoy watching it. "0 fortuna " itself , tells of fate, the wheel of fortune, and youth's awareness that physical love cannot last forever . «T ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Next comes "Primo Vere" or "Springtime" where they sing how springtime brings joy and love. A particularly delightful part of this section was "Ecce gratum " for the lightness of the singing and the girls' dancing. "Tanz ", the dance which followed was fun , too. When the people on stage smiled, it was obvious they were enjoying themselves. Baritone Soloist Carl Kishbaugh seemed to improve as the show went on—if he forgot his words, not many noticed. Carmina Burana received a stand ing ovation for last Sunday night' s performance . ( photo by P. White ) "In Taberna" (In the Tavern ) featured the solos of Carl and Tenor Allen Swope.

This question was one of the basic issues discussed by Prof. Stanley Haurwas, one of th e principal speakers in a conf erence on Medi cal Et hi cs, which was sponsored by the Philosophy Department on Wed nesday an d Thursday, May 9th and 10th at B.S.C. Sen i or Prof. Haurwas , Research Fellow at Kennedy Center f or Bi oethi cs, Georgetown University and a theologian specializing in Christian Ethics, spoke on t he Eth ics ot Death : Letting Die or Putting to Death. In his lecture he stated, "Artificial signs of life are not real signs of life. When the major organs of the body will not spontaneously sustain themselves beyond the extent of mechanical preservation the body is actually dead. Whether a life is worth prolonging should be determined by cost analysis and the amount of machinery being used to sustain the life. $25,000 to $35 ,000 are spent to keep a hopeless patient alive for one year. It is not morally wrong to put to deat h nor does i t v iolate certain moral righto as long as it is done in the easiest and quickest way and in the patient's own i nterest rat h er t h an society 's."

If you have no st omach for senti ment , I ask you , the reader , t o please turn quietly to another story on the page , and leave me to .my solemn ponder ings. It' s been a peace f ul year , with an in terim pres ident , with nothin g as newswor thy as a presid ent' s r esignation to liven thin gs up . We've exper iment ed in some new things in the M &G and I hope that the campus received them well. But experiments in lay-out and format d on 't make news , so if the news hasn 't been as lively as we of the staff of the M&G had hoped , we ask you readers to remember tha t we don 't make the news, we only print it. It' s been a good year , no ma t ter how q uiet I came into the editorship of the M&G with a reputation of being a fighter , and a veritable price on my head (the Wrestlers are coming, the Wrestlers ar e coming!). But the stormy promises which hovered over t he campus last Sept ember ha ve since dispersed and flown away. Its been a quiet year. In giving my thank-y ous I must begin with my staff. Althoug h we too, have had our stormy moments , I mus t thank them wholehear tedly f or the work they have done , f or I know best of all that they have never tried to do any thing but their very best. And the grea t men aren 't alwa ys those who succeed, the y are often those who can honestly say they've tr ied. In saying my thank-y ous I will include the per son who has done more for the M&G in the four years he has worked f or it than anyone in my connection with the paper . This year the M&G is saying goodby e to the best writer it has evern known ; of course I mean none other th an my good f r iend, par tner and predecessor , Jim Sachetti. I think this would be the best opportunity to speak for the entire M&G staff in saying good-bye and thank-you to Jim. I must thank Ken Ho ff man as the " man who knows everything about journalism ." He has taught all of us a great deal about newspaper s, and has alway s been there when we needed him. H owever , contrar y to popular belief, there has never been an occasion when he has "edited" copy from the M&G. Well, Mr. H. , th is clears your good name ! Inor.y good-byes, I can 't say farewell to the paper just yet , since I' m only a junior and have another year at this glorious instit ution before graduating . And as past editors can tell you, you never really say goodbye to the M&G. It gets in your blood. I gladly say goodbye to Executive Council of CGA . Dur ing the year these officers sat when they shoul d have stood, and whispered when (hey should have shoute d. I admit that it was a quiet year . But tquiet times are when a great deal of work can be done. And these men did nothing. I wish Steve Andrejack and his council good luck and hope tha t they are able to stand when the time comes, and shout when they feel the need. My last commen t an d good luck wish is f or my successor , Bob Oliver. Bob has been my par tner in the M&G throughout the year , an d al thou gh we h a ve had many diff erences of opinion , Ilike to think of him as one of my true friends. I know his strengths and bis weaknesses , and can only wish him good copy and good editors t o make his pa per work. If he has hal f the sta ff I had his problem s will be solved. And I give the same wish to all the editors of the Marron and Gold to come. I wish them health , happiness , a CGA with a large budge t, good copy and a good staff. What more can one ask?

As of today, you have yet to receive any information regarding the results of that effort. My reason for writing this letter is to give you some of the rea sons for the lack of informat ion , as well as to tr y t o express to y ou my appreciation for the contribution and help which that effort represents. As many of you know , representatives of your Commun ity Government Associa ti on have been work ing for almost two y ears t o b ring abou t an evaluation of facult y members and instructional methods at this college. The obj ect ive of tha t grou p 's work has been the publ icat ion of a studen t gu ide to i nstruct i on , wh ich would be designed to assist students in the ir selection of courses and instructors . Because the design of an appropri ate instrument to measure the quality of instruction is a diff icult task , the work at f irst went somewha t slowly, but by the end of the 197172 academic year the C.G.A. grou p, hea ded by Bob Jacob , had p re pared an early draft of an evaluation questionnaire which was designed for use by all students at B.S.C. In October of 1972, after having sought and rece i ved wides p read facult y out that these interestin g and somet i me s vital su bject s of college lif e are worth little in real life. I believe once these students are out of BSC they will understand more of what I am saying, because life is a quick teacher (noth ing against pr ofs). But there is one thin g in life I hope they all realize (as some already do) and that is that in college the y are not made to school. The reason for this think , but have onl y to copy and assumption is that many have f eed back in formation to man y of seemi ngly never left high school , the profs. but rather carri ed it on throu gh E nough p hiloso p h y andy college.

The agreement further requires that the Community Government Association , APSCUF-PAHE , and the college administration agree as to the form , content, and method of administration of the student evaluation effort. Last fall, therefore , there began a series of meetings between representatives of the three groups whose agre ement was re quir ed under bargainin g the collective agreemen t. The pur pose of those mee ti n gs was to reach agreement on the administration of the st uden t evalua ti on effort which all of you have just completed. Unfortunately, what initially looked like a rela ti vely simple task of agreeing t o move ahead with the administration of the evaluat ion q uestionna ire w i th which the C.G.A. group had been working for some t ime , ra pidly became more com p lex and d if f icult. Facul ty members are quite understandabl y concerned t hat onl y the most accurate evaluat ion possible become a p art of their p ermanent professional records while on the staff here. As the time for the evaluation ap p roached , it . became clear that the three parties involved could reach agreement on ' the form and substance of the items in the questionnaire itself only if some rather severe restrictions could be p laced upon the use of the informati on gathered as a result of the administration of the mars me one tiling you can con trol , at least partia lly — the growth. And if you stop growing, well, you're as good as dead. My intentions are to grab as much of t he control of my growth as possible. I want to make my own maps. I can 't rid my soul of BSC.

I t' s been so long tha t I don 't remember exactl y wha t he said that September day, but I do recall t hat it had to do with us, the Class of '73 , with our f utures , and with the future of BSC, wh ich at that ti me looked bright indeed. T here was talk of change , vitalit y, life ; and a feeling of excitement as we, the Class and the presiden t, embarked on our nmir r*flPM>rft Exactl y one week ago, certain members of the now • Senior class at BSC were cordially invited to Haas Auditorium to receive various and sundr y awards for their "contributions above and beyond the call of duty to the college." Former BSC president Harvey Andruss was the main speaker , and oddl y enough, he talked about the past , the good old days. There was no feeline of. life, no talk of the bright future ahead , only of the way_ things once had been. And as I sat there listening to the assembled applaud him , I couldn 't help but notice that somethin g had hap pened to BSC, and that whatever it was, I didn 't like it. At some point during the las t four years , we turned our collect ive back on the future , and began look ing backw ard , to the good old days, to Harve y An- druss. I suppose that everyone who witnessed the even ts of the las t four years has the ir own ideas as to exactl y when and why th is chan ge in outlook took place. It is open to specualt ion. But as for me , I have my suspicions... Nossen, who had been invited to participa te , and Pr imack who had been invited to be there . Nossen's a ppearan ce at the meeting that nigh t was something of a landmark in BSC history .

Cost Hike "Disc rimi natory " from the APSCUF-PAHE Report The pro posed tuition hike for state colleges has been branded as "de facto ra scism , sexism and elitism " by the state direct or of APSCUF -PAHE. Speaki ng at the Slippery Rock rally, Martin Moran d explained that the prop osed hike enhance s a conscious state policy to hold back the state college system which , by its very structure , offers the only education opportunities to man y blacks , women , and low income groups. "State policy says increase the percentage of minor ities and women among facu lties and increase the number of black students , but this cannot be done with zero growth ," said Morand. He noted that state colleges alread y are the only schools with a majority of women in their enrol lment. m Lauri Ligato, speak ing for the Slippery Rock Association for Wom en' s Rights , questioned whet her the state 's pr oposed retrenc hment in faculties could be done without bias against women. She noted that retr enchment on the basis of senior ity would force out recen tly hired women. Morand called the proposed cost increase "elitism" becaus e "the presumpti on is that if you raise tuiti on, those that need it t hrou gh can get money scholarships . But scholarshi ps are anot her form of welfaris m and welfarism is no answer." Letters (continued from page three ) students is mandated by the Commonwealth — APSCUFPAHE Contract , and is a clear recognition of the importance of student input in academic matters . The contract states that ' non-tenured faculty members shall be evalua t ed once per year and that tenured faculty mem- , bers shall be evaluated once ever y t hre e y ears. These evaluat ions include peer and student inputs. The adm i n istrat i on of t he st udent evaluat ion of instruct ion f orm assured student input. The p ur pose of the Task Force is to assess the extent to wh ich the descriptions of instructional qual ity for each f acul ty member are val id and reliable . In other words , t he Task For ce will provid e the users (i.e., peers, adm inistration and CGA if individual instructors give their perm ission ) of the results with i n f orm ation relative to the degree of confidence which may be placed i n the descri p tion of the instruction al quality of cours es as t aught b y each facult y member . Knowledge about the degre e of confidence which can be placed in the form employed is extremely imp ortant . A reliable and valid description of instructio n can r einforce good instru ction an d improv e Instruct ion . Furthermor e, faculty ten ure , p rom otion , mer it increment s, etc. will be affected by student evalu ations of in- structio n . The Task Force was for med in clear recognition of these facts .

Millersville scored in the third . seventh and twelfth innings for their 3 runs. Bloom lost because of an inability to move runners into scoring position. Several scoring chances were lost because of this inability. In the first game BSC suffered through some costly bad feelings. BSC will be in good shape again next year.

And so the 72-73 .school year passed with a third sigh. .The barricades were quietly torn down, the masses left the streets to return to their dorms, their jobs ; the fires were put out , and all the spectators went home for supper. And after all that noise and mess, isn 't it good to sit back with a quiet be'er and relax? Back from the future The surviving members of the Class of '73 will graduate next week. Each of them learned a lot, grew a lot while they were here. Nobody can go through four years of college, any college, and avoid it. Each of them will take something away from BSC — a profession, a hobby, a husband or wife, a new outlook or interest, a memorv or two. As for myself, I can only say that I consider myself extremely lucky to have borne witness to the short and tragic life of Bloomsburg State College. It was loud, violent, vulgar, hard, hectic; but it was life. I consider myself ,. lucky to have made the friends and enemies I did. And if nothing else, I think they would all agree that the last four years were interesting. Interesting the way only life can be. Oh yes, the classes and lectures and exams will go on. That is normalcy, that is education as it was always practiced at BSC, at least until what Harvey Andruss referred to as the "Watergatelike"events of the last few years. And maybe for some people, that's the way things should be. But as for myself, I can only say that I learned far more from watching the events sketched above than any course could have ever taught me. And to BSC, for giving me that education, I shall be eternally grateful. Ethics ( continued from page two) orientation towards life.

Williams on divorce ¦ Dr. William Williams, Special Adviser for Campus Relations, spoke to the sociology majors last Friday on the topic of divorce based on his experiences with several hundred cases in private law practice. Dr. Williams , a former deputy attorney general in the Pennsylvania Department of Justice, outlined the general legal principles and the grounds for divorce which have changed very little since 1785. As in most states, an overwhelming number of divorce cases in Pennsylvania are uncontested . Usually it takes an average of three months to complete divorce proceedings which involves the sheriff , the prothon otary, and the lawyers. The only grounds that a divorce may be granted on are those laws which are recognized by the Pennsylvania legislature. Many people confuse our own state's laws with those of other states where a divorce is easily obtained , said Dr. Williams. According to Dr. Williams, you can sue an insane person only if the individual is hqpelessly and permanently insane . <8&$&®m« Simple, straight-forward, classic—out of step with today's throwaway culture, Refutable cartridge , ballpoint or fiber tip marker in basic tan or navy blue.
