He also added, “During 1971, 112,000 18 year olds graduated from high school’’.“Therefore, should a person of 18, still in high school, be allowed to drink legally?” Many times I sit in a classroom and listen to a teacher’s lecture and I know he is trying to tran smit many ideas into mind but I cannot understand a word he is saying because this lecture is so confusing. 1 used to think, it was because this teacher was so in telligent and well-learned in his subject matter that he could not come down to my level of thinking to teach it. But now I am begin ning to think differently. I wonder how many teachers ever took methods courses in school on how to teach their particular subject. I realize this does not apply to all teachers, but for the ones to which this does apply, something must be done. Teacher evaluation is about the only way in which teachers themselves can find out where their problem area is, if one does exist. I do not mean a com puterized list of 50 questions to which the students answer “I strongly agree or disagree.” I feel each teacher should conduct his own evaluation and have it contain questions that pertain exactly to the particular course being taught. There should be room provided on the evaluation for lengthy answers and-or suggestions by the students. The Improvement of Teaching Committee this year is providing many services for the teacher so he may conduct his own evaluation.

Concerned Student November 7 A Day of Reckoning There is only one issue in the 1972 Campaign. Richard Nixon. Everyone knows what the word “Nixon” means. It means slogans and image making. PR instead of programs. Talk instead of action. Scheming and manipulating and hoping the public won’t find out. Even the “Committee to Re- Elect the President” is afraid to use the name Nixon—they’re afraid the people will remember Nixon today is the same “Tricky Dicky” he has been all along. In his four year occupancy of the White House, Nixon has made one thing perfectly clear-that he has no intention of keeping any of the promises that put him there. Nixon promised a secret plan to end the war. The war continued four years later. (Now it looks as if we will have an election day peace.) Nixon promised a war on crime. Instead violent crime has gone up 33 per cent. Nixon promised control of in flation. But prices, especially of food, still soar. Nixon promised help for the elderly, for the poor, for November 2,1972 In addition to the films, there will be critical seminars con ducted by film-makers, critics, students, educators and labor leaders. Arrangements are also being made for several book publishers to be present at the screenings. For information on the weekend of films contact: David S.

Learning by Doing Dr. Ptaschnik’s Sociology 7 class will soon be in the field collecting the data for their projects. Each member of the class is doing a social research project concerning some facet of Behrend Campus. The projects concern problems of the campus such as the social, academic, and extracurricular. Each of the students of the class is engaged in an individual “learning by doing” process in order to gain a workable knowledge of social research. For the next few weeks the members of the class will be approaching certain students and faculty with questionnaires. The recipients of these questionnaires are urged to answer each item as best they can. Additionally, some students and faculty will be asked for an interview. The reason that cooperation is requested from the students and faculty is that ex perimental “side effects” could result from information supplied by less than the best available. Your cooperation is requested to insure the best possible results for each of the individual projects. Thank you. education, for cities-and vetoed the bills Congress passed to give that help. Nixon pretends to be a friend of labor. But he has frozen the workingman’s wages while allowing record corporate profits. He refuses to support legislation that labor put at the top of this year’s agenda-pension security (voting record, Nixon 14 per cent, McGovern 94 per cent in favor of labor). Nixon promised to “bring us together”. But his deliberately polarizing rhetoric and callous neglect of real problems are tearing the fabric of this nation apart. Nixon promised a climate of respect for law and order. Instead he’s shown contempt for law by illegal snooping on citizens, trying to pack the Supreme Court with mediocrity, secret big-money political deals-and now outright burglary in the Watergate caper. Nixon has kept one promise though. He told the American public if elected we will not have to choose between unemployment and inflation, for he will have given us both.'
