the Clarion > vol. 60 no. 24 Springfest provides fun for everyone by Chris Henning The celebration is about to begin. Springfest begins tomorrow morning al 9:45 a.m. with a wacky opening parade featuring Grand Marshal Jim Woods on a moped and a yellow model T Ford, rumble seat and all, carrying the Presidenl's Club. The parade will begin in Seminary village and it will follow ihe route of Bethel Drive toward the college where many events and boolhs will be set in Kresge courtyard. Saturday's springiest is loaded with too many activities for anyone to keep up with, but it was designed lhat way. Several of the events on Saturday will overlap so fair- goers need to plan ahead. Students are especially urged to lake some time out from their studies in order to attend an event or two. Schedules of all Springfest events appear on the back of the Springfest posters displayed in almost every hallway and corner that exists al Bethel. Slop and lake a look to see when the shows are that you are interested in. Some of the events include the "Maypole Celebration" by the Swedish class at 10:15 a.m. in the courtyard. The Maypole will be an authentic demonstration of Swedish folk music as well as dance. The Flying Circus of Physics will start at 10:30 a.m. in F.A. 313. Professors and students together will produce a fantaslic hour of laser light, beds of nails, and fiery fun. At 11:30 a.m. the Minnesota Striker's Soccer Clinic will meel at the SRC. Some of the Strikers will be on hand to give some tips for players and coaches of all ages. The clinic is a must for anyone interested in soccer. Al 12:30 in the afternoon "Doc" Dalton will be at the ole pump organ with "Preacher" Dan Taylor. Together they will hold an old-fashioned service at the Little Church on the Hill. For those who feel a little more on the deep side of things, the Poet's Corner can fill the void. Bethel poets will recite their own works in the Robertson Lounge at 2:00 p.m. To add to the festive mood Budget cuts staff but not ft •• rr by Kenneth Wiering Democracy was stilted at Belhel College as committees and interests clashed over language requirements and budget cuts. The budget was of greater importance and language courses offered at Bethel dropped from 32 down to 10. Last year, 1984, started with the formation of Committee of Program Review assigned to cut 12 faculty positions. The committee examined the factors involved and proposed certain cuts. The proposal was largely adopted and courses were eliminated as a result. In the meantime, the Academic Policies Committee (APC) published a proposal Lv -": 1 ' '■ <i m ■■*■■' iUJUHI. ..... .

That proposal held a foreign lan guage proficiency requirement for graduation. In response to the staff cuts the APC published a statement of disap- of Springfest, a national award-winning juggler will be in the courtyard at 1:15 p.m. Scott Burton will amaze and delight all with his tricks and timing. Other events include two gospel team performances, a benefit auction that should especially interest sludenls, an Art and Crafts fair, the Hot-shot Shoot-out, Simon Sez wilh Roy Lucas, recitals, and many, many more. Finally, to finish off the day in a relaxing way one could go to the theatre production of "Cinderella" at 7:30 p.m. Another possibility is the Concerti-Concerts. The concerts will be performed at 7 p.m. and 8:15 p.m. Some outstanding soloists are to be see page 7 rtunities poinlment. APC realizes that "with these staffing constraints, it is clearly not possible to implement the proposed language requirement and recommends that this requirement "be implemented as soon as staffing level permits." Gerry Healy, who was on the Committee for Program Review, says the criticism of how foreign languages was affected "ignored the mandate" of eliminating 12 positions. "A lot of places took the bite," as other departments were also affected. Don Larson, professor of linguistics, is disappointed because students that are interested in cross-cultural studies cannot study a foreign language put- see page 3 T?ts not too Itft to hfa thii chimb** person to set \.. . •♦ CmJere/IcL** H«y *, V>" 3t 1:10 fun - semt nfjWi iold oul- buy t»c*«t« (nth* boxofficer may 3, 1985 Campus Notes 158 Arrested in Week-long Berkeley Apartheid Protest Despite the April 16 arrests, nearly 400 sludents gathered Ihe next day to continue their protest of South African racial policies and university South Africa-related investments.
