“Steeple Jacks and Jills’’ John Kramar. Syracuse high school student council president, introduced to the student body and faculty Monday morning. Mr Lee Quinn, a steeple jack by trade. Mr. Quinn has appeared before over 3.000 audiences and is the only licensed steeple jack in the United ! States, therefore tins makes him the only person in the country legally able to hire others for this trade. He has hitch-hiked across .Africa and bicycled across Europe. At tiie age of 21. Mr. Quinn retired and for tiie past 22 years, he has "been doing the things he always dreamed about." However, lie. with tiie help of his wife, is still doing some steeple jobs. During the convocation. Kevin Galloway, a senior at Syracuse, was taught how to climb up and paint the top of a flag pole. Also assisting Mr Quinn in this demonstration was Captain Patricia Seedsman, one of the few sailing vessels’ captains. A film was shown in which varrous jobs of the steeple jack were . shown, some reaching to heights of 600 or more feet. Mr. Quinn left the group with this advice to those wanting to become a steeple jack: First become a college graduate. This, he ex- i plained, was because some companies wlio hire steeple jacks have found that a college graduate can think better and is able to handle 600 feet better!

College Students' Views Sometimes Contrary to Parents MUNCIE — How concerned are you, as a parent, going to be the i first time your son or daughter comes home from college and expresses a religious, political, moral or philsophical new opposite that i ■which you have always believed? | Are you going to get angry, let| your blood pressure shoot up, and have open warfare at the dinner : table? If so, you will drop a curtain of communication between you and 'your college son or daughter that may be very difficult to lift. ' “It’s not uncommon for a college student to express a contrary political view other than what he has always heard at home,’’ says Dr. M. C. Beyerl, vice president for student affairs at Ball State university. Dr. | Beyerl has been a classroom proses- i sor, head of psychological counseling and testing, and dean of stui dents before his present position. He knows young people very well—what they are thinking, how they react, and how they are going to turn out. He is not worried about students discussing controversial issues. “This,” he explains, “is part of the evaluation process that we go through to test our beliefs and attitudes about issues which aren’t always clear cut to us.” Dr. Beyerl believes that “college can’t undo what 18 years have created/’ And then he adds with a big. warm smile, “It doesn’t mean that they are going to be liberals forever.” Very few—probably less than one' per cent of the entire student body— i . become an atheist, a socialist, ar. ■ j ultra conservative, an agnostic or a | ’ communist. The membership rolls of j j Students for Democratic Society, |W. E. B. Dußois club or Young Americans for Freedom are very I | small. On the subject of morals, Dr. ' Beyerl says that “a college can’t i ; represent each parent in setting up j values and standards and codes of i ethics.” A college or university can- 1 not monitor 18- to 22-year-old stu- j dents to see if they believe or prac-1 tice acceptable standards. Being an institution which over many years has traditionally encouraged free inquiry’, open discussion j and debate, the college or university |is fertile ground for diverse views on almost any topic. i Naturally, students come to a university or college from different moral and ethical backgrounds, w ith dis- i ferent religions, and political views, i To most students, their parents have I been their most significant models. And suddenly they find their attitudes ! and beliefs being challenged by their | peers or others on the campus with' different backgrounds and beliefs. , This can be an unsetthng exper- j i ience for some students, particularly ■ ,in the area of religion, just as it is i when the student brings home some i new philosophy to his parents. j “The degree to which the student i comes out of these challenges to his | i basic beliefs with a sound moral and ethical value system which can be lived with and practiced in life is the degree to which he is going to be effective as a mature adult in our society,” says Dr. Beyerl. Dr. Beyerl encourages parents to come to the campus and participate in some of the many week end ac- j tivities that are open to students as well as parents. In this way, the parent can come to know’ better the kind of atmosphere in which the student lives aw ay from home. He be1,. MB nF I miiiTTw BRIGHT.

lieves that those who come to Dad’s Day, Mother’s Day or week end visitations for parents in the residence halls will get some of the flavor, atmosphere and spirit of inquiry on the campus. “There isn’t a week end anymore that there isn’t something culturally exciting on ti e campus,” he adds. “We encourage parents to come and be a part of this. We even encourage them to enroll in a class or two

if they don’t live too far away.” “Mature parents,” he adds, “recognize that their child is the greatest loan they have contracted for—- — loan from the Creator—and that the college or university is the emancipator from the home. The college or university helps the student prepare to take community leadership and to found a home of his own on the basis of attitudes that made America great.”
