Description

The first in a series of speakers set to visit the College is Dith Pran. Pran will be speaking about his experiences during the Pol Pot regime in Cambodia, source material for the popular movie The Killing Fields. The Black Students Association will be organizing a march downtown in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Wyatt Tee Walker, Martin Luther King Jr.'s Chief of Staff, will also be speaking at the College. In the letters to the editor, students express dismay over the elimination of a full-time faculty member position teaching string instruments. There is a large anti-smoking advertisement on page 7, making an appeal to a college student's intelligence. Jeopardy is scouting Wooster for college-age participants in their "$25,000 College Championship." On the last page there is an advertisement from the local amusement park, Cedar Point, looking for musicians and performers for its 1990 season.
