Student Affairs
Changing
"Student Affairs, as set up
along traditional lines, is seen by
most people as supportive of
student academic concerns.
Today, I see it as a partner in the
total mission of the University,"
states Dr. John Grimm, Capitol's
Dean of Student Affairs.
As currently established,
Student Affairs encompasses the
Counseling Center, Placement
and Health Services, Veterans
Affairs, Residence Living, and
Student Activities under which
the Recreation/ Athletics office
is located. Dean Grimm recently
took time out from his busy
schedule to explain what the
Office of Student Affairs is and
what it does in helping fulfill the
lives of students here.
Grimm gives a glimpse of
what the office is offering. "We
are doing more than just keeping
the lid on things. We are
innovative. For example, Marian
Kreiger, who has been promoted
to staff psychologist, has offered
non-credit mini courses on sex
education. I think such informal
education to be basic, something
we can sink our teeth into." He
also mentioned instruction in
karate, judo and self defense as
part of the recreation program as
"something you can't get in a
classroom situation."
He asserted that the informal
education program will be
expanded in the near future.
"What I'd like to see in the
future is credit for such courses,
but first we must prove how well
they can work."
Another area in which
Student Affairs is involved is
academic affairs. "Students
could have input into the
advising program, such as was
dune with the student-to-student
program during Orientation. We
could possibly assign students as
advisors. However, they first
must receive insturction in the
techniques of counseling. This is
not to say that we intend to take
over the advising program, but
just take part in its
improvement."
Dean Grimm related other
ideas which could make the
Student Affairs office a more
effective tool for student use.
The merging of the Counseling
Center and the Placement
Office, under Mr. Richard R.
Schulz was mentioned as a
in the Wind'
Student Affairs has initiated
programs of informal education
which have benefited not only
the students, but the outside
community as well. "Health
Services have conducted tests for
sickle cell and anemia, and a
filmstrip has been prepared for
distribution to the community,"
he said. Also, what began as a
poetry workshop in the New
Birth coffeehouse, as initiated
by students under the direction
of Pat Murphy, Residence Living
Coordinator-Meade Heights, has
grown into an inter-collegiate
writer's workshop.
"What we are doing in
Student Affairs is working with
all facets of the campus
including faculty and
administration, to promote
meaningful education," Grimm
emphasized. "We are out to
change the image. I don't think
people really look at Student
Affairs and think about
education at the same time. We
are going to do the same things
we are doing now and more, and
it is about time we did."

Indian Water
Almost As Cheap
As Indian Land
Ogoki Post, Ontario (CPS) --
Officials of this Northern reserve
and the Union of Ontario
Indians have demanded a halt
in work and studies in a
proposed federal-provisional
scheme to divert Canadian
waters to the U.S.
The demand followed the
leaking of maps which showed
plans for major northern water
diversions throughout Canada.
Canadian officials have denied
the existence of such a plan, but
there is mounting evidence that
indicates there may not only be
plans to divert water to the U.S.,
but that work on the project
may have already begun.
Harry Achneepineskum, area
resident and student at
Lakehead University, says there
are slashing sites near the Ogoki
community--exactly on the spots
where the study maps suggest
dams should be built to reverse
the flow of the Albany River.
Equally disturbing, said
Achneepineskum, are plans by
the Indian Affairs to move the
residents of Ogoki Post to a new
Reserve, about a mile from
the present site and on higher
ground.
Ogoki people have been
unable to understand why, after
100 years, Indian Affairs is
concerned about the mud.
