Description

New 'Yellow Jacket' patrols, instituted by security help to keep students safe at night by utilizing the help of other students. Astronaut Russell Schweickart visited the College to give a lecture; a list of his achievements is given. Debates concerning opinions on feminism cover multiple pages of this issue. The debate appears to stem from a letter written by visiting assistant member of History department faculty, where he expressed that the 'Women in Society' class on campus is forcing their views on others. Multiple other letters and viewpoint articles condemn his opinions. The College was also visited by author and philosopher Christina Hoff Sommers, who gave a lecture on her views and opinions of feminism, especially in the college sphere. Plans for the new Luce Hall on campus include a computer room in each living unit. The options the College offers for students to study abroad are highlighted. In the centerfold, students are asked their opinions about the state of smoking on campus, including how it should be regulated.
