Scott Warren will give a benefit concert for Bread for the World. the Clarion INSIDE: SMP directory pages 4, 5 Overview of BSA candidates pages 6, 7 vol. 58, no. 26 3900 bethel dr., st. paul, mn 55112 april 22, 1983 Warren sings for others' suppers by Laurie Lindahl I failed Journalism 101 to-day. I interviewed'Scott War-ren, professional Christian performer, without doing my "homework." Before the inter-view, all I knew about Warren was that he is doing a benefit concert for Bread for the World at 7:30 this evening, April 22, in the Robertson Physical Education Center. (Tickets are $3 at the door). Now, as all good journal-ists know, the first rule to good interviewing is to know something about your inter-viewee. This is called theory. It is found in textbooks and on chalkboards. Occasionally, theory gets lost in a boring book and reality erases the board with only a shadow of chalk left to outline those proverbial keys to success. This happens enough so that we are not shaken when it does and happily surprised when it does not. I was happily surprised by Scott Warren. He fuses the-ory, or his philosophy of things, into the practice of his music in a way that refuses to bore or pamper his audience. He is subtle. "I like to make people think about what I'm saying without having to spell it out to them," he said. "I want them to listen and draw their own conclusions." In this way, Warren is like an artist painting a picture— there are many different in-terpretations, but each person must find his or her own. This is rather new for those of us on the Christian concert consortium who are used to being told what a song is going to say even before we hear it. This is part of what makes Scott Warren unique—he refuses to spoon-feed his audience. "When I compose," he said, "I try to write about what my audience needs to hear, not what they want to hear." This is no easy task, especially considering the variety of peo-ple he plays to. Whether he is playing in a club, a state uni-versity or a private college, his main concern is to be able to communicate to a non- Christian audience. "For a long time, Christian artists have tended to edify the Chris-tian community—and that's important too—but I think the real place we should be sowing seeds is in the non- Christian marketplace," he said. "Too often we ignore or neglect this responsibility." Ah, responsibility . . . Does this have anything to do with the fact that you are doing a benefit concert for Bread for the World? I asked. Warren smiled. "I believe in Bread for the World because it is an organization that is seeking to claim this responsibility," he said. Bread for the World is a warren, see page 9 Three criteria guide Bethel admission policy by Paul Davis Bethel has an admissions policy based on three areas. The first of the three re-quirements is the academic area. This is the most impor-tant area of consideration. Three things are evaluated in this area. First is the appli-cant's previous academic rec-ord. This is usually the high school transcript. Second is the applicant's rank in the class. Only students in the 50 and above percentile are con-sidered for regular admission. Third is the college entrance exam score. According to Dan Nelson, director of enrollment, the most important aspect is the student's actual overall per-formance. "We look for stu-dents with more college prep courses, social studies, math, science, and foreign language. Students with a 2.0 GPA or higher are considered for ad-mission. The second area of require-ment is the Christian Faith Statement. This is a statement found in the application pack-et, that reads: "Do you con-sider yourself a Christian?" It is followed by a "yes" box and a "no" box. The applicant is to check the appropriate box, and then to explain the an-swer. These are read by the admissions committee, which consists of Phil Kimball, direc-tor of admissions, Chet Duck, registrar, and a member of the student development office. The committee decides whether the explanation is ac-ceptable. If it is not, the appli-cant is informed of the rea-son, and admission to Bethel is denied. For students wishing to ap-peal the decision, an appeals procedure is available. An ap-peals committee made up of students and faculty meets on demand to review appeals. A student can be admitted to Bethel upon request of the appeals committee. The third basis for admis-sion is the acceptance of the Bethel lifestyle. The lifestyle statement must be dated and signed for acceptance, if it is not, the application form is returned to the applicant to be signed. When the signed form is received, the admis-sions board will consider ad-mitting the applicant. There is more than one type of admission. The first kind is regular admission. Most of the students at Bethel (85- 90%) are admitted "regularly." This means that the student has submitted all of the nec-essary forms for admission, his or her admission has been reviewed by the admissions board, and he or she has been accepted. The second kind of admis-sion is a provisional admis-sion. These applicants have met all of the requirements except the academics. But the admissions committee feels that they have the ability to do well at the college level, if they adhere to special stipu-lations. Some are not allowed to participate in extra-cur-ricular activities, or are re-quired to participate in study groups. The third kind of admis-sion is special admission. This is given to community mem-bers or employees who wish to pick up an extra course, but who are not looking for a degree. The last kind of admission admissions, see page 8 WA-`i (41006 IS 11--E Atnik-K5 TRE mO5C LS-Taxi gai5sin, ail WE3 \la THE EWAI6td . Christians' 'dialects' build needless barriers "Have you invited Jesus to step into your heart? He's standing outside knocking, but the only doorknob is on the inside," said the Sunday school teacher. My German friend—a committed Christian—looked blank. She didn't know the dialect. She could talk about confession of her sins and communion with her Lord and obedience, but not about hearts with pedestrians and doorknobs. Neither my friend nor the teacher could translate the other's way of talking about her experience. This friend of mine, as loyal a Catholic as I am a Baptist, left the Sunday school class with the feeling that she had been weighed in the balance and found wanting. What was it that prevented these two "sisters" from knowing and feeling their common bond? From glorifying their God together? Language, it seems, can be a barrier as well as a bridge between humans. I'm very sorry that my friend and my Sunday school teacher missed an uncommon opportunity: glorifying God together with a "stranger." I would never wish or pray for a watered-down version of Christianity in which any individual's relationship to God is undermined "just so that we can all agree." But I do pray, and earnestly, that brothers and sisters can get past differing descriptions to the shared meaning they camouflage. gh Rape, 'harmless fun' stem from same attitude JoAnn Watkins/editor Paul Davis/associate editor Don Copeland/photography editor Ginger Hope/copy editor John Clark/sports editor Neal Bernards/editorial assistant Mike Doran/editorial assistant Lynnette Monrer/editorial assistant Pam Sundeen/business manager Tammy Gregersen/ad sales Brian S.

Twelve other men in the bar re-sponded to her screams for help during the two-hour or-deal by cheering the rapist. About the same time, four Bethel men left notes in the POs of ten Bethel women, honoring them as the "Top Ten Women at Bethel." We respond to this "Top Ten" list with the same rage shown by the citizens of New Bedford who gutted the bar; we will not tolerate attitudes that regard women as objects. This list, published by the "Phoenomenal (sic) Fours," may seem innocuous corn-pared to the rape, but it comes from the same mentality which treats women as less than complete human beings. On a list such as this, worn-en are evaluated by our phys-ical appearances rather than by our abilities, experiences, and perceptions. Women are valued only insofar as we relate to men, not as human beings. The men who stood by and watched the young woman raped saw her not as a human being whose body was her own, but as chattel, whose body was for their use. We are more than pieces of meat, to be rated "1-10" on "harmless, fun" lists. "Harm-less, fun," sexist, objectifying lists form attitudes which al-low twelve men to watch a fellow human being's person brutally violated. We, the undersigned, refuse to tolerate these "fun" jokes any more than we tolerate brutal rapes. We ask women at Bethel to become aware of these painful attitudes and to seek one another's strength and support in fighting against them. In solidarity, Julie Bach Patti S.

In the past, these students have been left alone in plan-ning their courses in these areas. But beginning next year, a new health professions advisor will be available to help students. This position will be filled by Dale Steph-ens, professor of chemistry. According to Stephens, "stu-dents need to be aware of options other than medical school." This new advisor will begin next fall to help students plan their future in the medical fields. The responsibilities of this advisor will be: 1) To gather and maintain informa-tion from all schools and pro-grams in health-related fields, 2) coordinate activities of the student group(s), 3) advise students on course selection for the specific programs they are pursuing, 4) assist in pre-paring students for MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test), DAT {Dental /Aptitude Test), etc., 5) aid in the re-cruitment of prospective stu-dents, 6) represent Bethel at open houses and such affairs the Clarion at local medical schools, and Stephens.

"Only a half mile and you get to break," stated the second wave. "The wait really wasn't that bad, I think I even may have learned something." The wave continued to build in preparation of the final break. "I'm glad that you rolled and waited with the rest of us. Had you broken when you wanted to, our timing would have been all messed up," gurgled another. "I can't believe that the first spring thaw is already here," said the icicle as it dripped unto the pavement below. "Just think, you finally get to melt," stated the second icicle. "Now that I think about it, I really didn't mind the cold." The icicle continued to melt as it hung from the garage roof. "I'm glad that you decided to hang in there and wait like the rest of us.

An interest in leadership and motivating people is why Anderson is running for vice president though he lacks ex-perience with Bethel student government. He is a history and political science major with plans for graduate school in political science. Barr and Anderson said they would like to see the senate as a more viable force in the community. With a one-ness of purpose they said they feel that the students can do things to affect Bethel and the community. "We'd like to see the Bethel community active in BSA activities," said Barr. He suggested open forums. "We- want to be more in touch with the students," An-derson added. "with a panel for questons and a place to take gripes we want to be a voice to student organiza-tions." He said, "We're stress-ing leadership for the students representing the students, pushing for what students want." Instead of concentrating on internal changes in the senate, Barr said they plan to focus on external changes that will have an effect on Bethel and the community. He said the internal changes are impor-tant but will not be their pri-mary goal. "Bethel needs more concen-by Neal Bernardo "Servant leadership made visible" typifies the style of leadership Steve Van Sickle and Bob Thompson hope to provide as president and vice • president of BSA. "We plan to live what we're doing," said Van Sickle. "We'll assess the role of president and vice president and fit them to our personal talents. That way we can use our strengths in important areas." Both Van Sickle and Thompson served as student senators last year and as pres-ident pro tempore this year. Thompson, a political science major, resigned from the posi-tion to commit ample time to being an AD. Because of sche-duling conflicts and the dis-tance involved, the two have met only once to put together a campaign and a philosophy. Recently, Thompson and Van Sickle attended the 1983 Taylor Leadership Conference at Taylor University in Indi-ana. Both were very im-pressed by that school's stu-dent government. "We'd like to incorporate into the Bethel constitution a student leadership board that includes representatives from not only the BSA, but also groups such as the Clarion, Inter-Varsity, and other or-ganizations," said Van Sickle. "The system works very well at Taylor." Van Sickle would also like to institute a fall break for the 1984-85 school year by going through the proper adminis-trative channels. "Many peo-ple I've talked to want a four-or five-day weekend during the fall. If we can show there's a need for it, we can pass it." Budget cuts threaten the existence of many organiza-tions at Bethel. In a time of declining enrollment, the mon-ey will become even tighter. Van Sickle plans to fight for the retention of as many ac-tivities as possible. "I feel that I have a real good hand with the administration because I've worked with them on dif-ferent projects." Van Sickle would like to open up corn-municatoin between adminis-trators and students. "Stu-dents need to see the pres-ident walking around, to real-ize that he's a real person. We all have a united purpose in education." In order for Student Senate to be effective, Van Sickle feels that students need to be involved. However, he does not entirely blame them, but places part of the fault on the BSA for not properly inform-ing students. Marked for par-ticular improvement is stu-dent participation on joint committees. "Students don't realize the influence they have," said Van Sickle. "A lot of grass roots stuff begins in committee. Few colleges af-ford students an equal vote with faculty on policy issues like Bethel does." "Another way we'd like to see studehts involved is to get them out in the community. We need to develop an aware-ness of BSA outside of Bethel. It would add credibility to BSA for the future if we could pull off some service projects very professionally. That way, people won't be afraid to come here when they need help." Van Sickle senses that a Tack of school spirit plagues Bethel and keeps it from reaching its full potential. "It's been said a lot before, but we need to develop a real campus unity. We'd like to create a parent's booster club, not just parents of those in athletics, but any who are interested. We don't want money, just support. We'd like to expand on the good start made this year." Van Sickle also hopes to expand the Student Senate. "We'd like to work closely with Campus Coordinator to make events more palatable. At the recent Farrell and Far-rell concert only 200 tickets were sold to Bethel students. We need gimmicks and adver-tising to get people on campus involved." An important part of Stu-dent Senate is the individual representative. "They must to be sensitive to the needs and ideas of their constituency," said Van Sickle. "By using the grapevine they discover com-mon gripes and positive reac-tions. At our meetings they can be discussed and analyzed to see if anything can be done." Despite all the proposed changes, Van Sickle merely sees next year as a continua-tion of this one. "Basically we want to keep up with what Steve (Goodwin) and Steve (Lemon) have done. They've established a good credibility base, and we'll build from there."

"The one thing we can come together on is Jesus Christ to have an emphasis on one truth rather than many." He said, "We're also Christains serving God, seek-ing to know him better and receive an education. We need to have an identity as a Chris-tian school, not just another school." Barr said to vote for them one would need to believe in their character and in them as individuals. "And think we'll work hard," he added. "Whatever we do, our focus should be on Christ," said Barr. He said they would like to see the students more in-volved in community service and taking political stands. "We have this idea of what needs to happen," said An-derson. "It may be a longer process than we think [to mo-tivate people]. We're not ex-actly sure how we're going to do it. You don't know how to begin except to provide strong leadership." Barr said he would also like to see the representatives speak in the dorms and with the people they represent. They said that they would like the senate representation to remain by class levels, in regards to the proposed new constitution. Barr said a reorganization of the financial structure is needed and he favors the idea of a student comptroller to oversee the BSA budgets. "We want to be more than someone who shakes his or her head and smiles, agreeing with everything," Anderson said. Anderson said he thinks he and Barr can work together. "We have a unity and a check and balance," he said. "We're genuinely con-cerned about Bethel," said Barr. "We want to convince people of our convicton to serve Bethel. In a nutshell, we want to be there to serve Bethel College." Carlson/Eliason by JoAnn Watkins "We see an abundance of opportunities and they're ex-citing opportunities," said Barry Carlson, candidate for BSA President. "We're in this to do our jobs and to do it well," said his vice-presidential running mate, Marilyn Eliason. Carlson, a business major, brings experience from his own company as well as 3- M and Control Data. He pres-ently serves on the Food Ser-vice committee and is a mem-ber of the Bethel Business Association. "I know there are a lot of things I can bring to BSA," said Carlson. Though Carlson met Eliason within the last two weeks he said he does not see any problems. "Of the six running no one is as qualified as Marilyn." As .BSA Executive Secre-tary this year and as a senator during her freshman and sophomore years, Eliason has experience working with sen-ate. She has served as chair-person of the Public Action Committee, on the committee for handicapped students, member of the Hunger Action Coalition for Minnesota, Mid-west Regional coordinator for the American Association for Evangelical Students and Na-tional Publications Director for AAES. She is presently 'a' member of the Convocations Committee and involved in the campaign for financial aid. "Our campaign is centered around a holistic atmosphere: spiritual, academic, and so-cial," said Eliason. She said they hope to make the student organization more visible and continue the programs of ser-vice that BSA is involved with. "We'd like to establish a committee for getting people excited for what's going on at Bethel," said Carlson. He ex-plained that this committee would promote school spirit and beginning new Bethel traditions. Other issues the two can-didates wish to address is the inclusion of students in the process of establishing the budget. They said they would like to bring back the All- School Banquet. Carlson said he would like to see students working to promote the image of the Bethel student in the Twin Cities area. As vice-president of the BSA, Eliason's duties would center around the Student Senate. She said she plans to work for an efficiently run senate. "I'd like to see a train-ing program for senators so they know more about the senate and how it functions," she said. Another idea to • increase comunication with the stu-dents is a news flyer to go in the dining areas regarding is-sues the BSA is dealing with. "We want students to know what they're paying for and to get what they're paying for," said Eliason. "Most peo-ple don't know how to voice their views about decisions such as where their money is being spent." She said, "Stu-dents are paying more and more and more and getting less and less and less." "We've got to find a way to make people see the good they're accomplishing as sen-ators and how they are bene-fiting themselves," Carlson said. "They have to see beyond sitting in meetings and see what they are doing in the long run." "If BSA represents the school then the entire school should be represented in the BSA," said Eliason. She said she would like to see the un-derclassmen better represent-ed and involved in the BSA organizations. "The role," she said, "of the BSA is to work to get the students together and work together." Carlson said he and Eliason fit together well in relation to their experience and ideas, and that they both feel they can work together. "Our purpose is to promote what we can do best for the students," said Eliason. "We're in this to do our jobs and to do them well." She said, "We don't have all the answers, but we want to give it our best shot."

In fact, campus recruiting and the number of job offers to graduating seniors are down again this spring, while experts say starting salaries are lagging behind even the declining inflation rate. Even engineers and compu-ter science majors, who gen-erally have had their pick of jobs in recent years, are hav-ing more trouble getting work this spring, the officers add. "Last year was a tough year, and this year's going to be even worse," warns Victor Lindquist, placement chief at Northwestern University and director of the Endicott Re-port, an annual survey of job prospects for college grads nationwide. "For the Class of '83, it'll be the toughest year since World War II," adds Jack Shingleton, Michigan State's placement director and coordinator of that school's annual national student job survey. Other campus placement di-rectors report spring recruit-ment is off as much as 50 per-cent from last year's de-pressed levels. Consequently, the summer job market will be - more crowded than ever, with fewer jobs available as companies continue to delay hiring new employees. "There'll be 1,300,000 stu-dents graduating this spring," Shingleton points out. "There'll be a million jobs open." Overall, Shingleton thinks students with bachelor's de-grees will get 17 percent fewer job offers than a year ago. Liberal arts majors will have the hardest time finding work, Shingleton's study found. Things are better for elec-trical engineers, computer science, business and other engineering grads, in that or-der. Oregon State Associate Placement Director Majorie McBride is urging students to "get out and contact employ-ers directly," rather than rely-ing on campus interviews. "This year is just the worst I've ever seen," she moans. "We'll be hiring considera-bly less this year," says Phil DeLong, spokesman for the American Telephone and Tel-egraph's college recruitment division. "Partly because of the economy, and partly be-cause of our divestiture pro-ceedings, we're taking a cau-tious, wait-and-see attitude." admissions, from page 1 is special admission. This is given to community members or employees who wish to pick up an extra course, but who are not looking for a degree. The last kind of admission is credential admission. "This is the rarest type of admis-sion," said Nelson, "there are only four to six in any given year." These students take classes, but are not enrolled as students. They come to Bethel for one year or one semester, the amount of time is determined by the admis-sions committee. These stu-dents receive no financial aid, and are placed on the bottom of the housing priority list. If they show that they can han-dle the college level work, they are allowed to enroll as regular students and their grades are put on their per-manent records. According to Nelson, the statement of faith is more important than the academ-ics. "Bethel is not a mission," said Nelson. "We don't want people to parrot what they have heard when they sign the profession of faith. There's a difference between saying it and really coming to grips with it," said Nelson. "Bethel is under pressure to lower academic standards, but we have not," said Nel-son. "We know who we are, and everyone else knows who we are," he added. The number of students ad-mitted each year is about 85- 90% of the number of applica-tions received. Of the appli-cations received between 5% and 8% are flatly , rejected. This low denial rate is due to the fact that most applicants know what Bethel is about, said Nelson. Surveys taken in the fall of the freshman year show a high degree of satis-faction with Bethel. Nelson said that the big-gest reason for next year's drop in continuing students is the large number of graduates this year. "The administration has successfully cut the bud-get without cutting offerings," said Nelson. "Next year's stu-dents receive no _reduc-tion of service from Bethel." no comment Study Spanish in Sevilla SPAIN Intsnslv* study Baginner through Advancod Trips starting Fall and Winter Semester coot approx.

Submit entries in the Clarion office or PO 2381 by April 30. by George Palke The newly distributed 1983-84 Registration catalog has on page 5 "An Invitation to Bethel College." Included in this invita-tion are basic principles upon which all activities at Bethel are built. The fourth of these principles states "The reality of the Christian life will be apparent in personalities that show the `fruit of the spirit....love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, good-ness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. — The familiar passage from Galatians that is used here includes many attri-butes that are evident in a Christian's life. However, I would like to zero in on just one, faithfulness, and one way it applies to the Bethel community. Being faithful is to be true to one's word, promise, or vow. In the Bethel community most people try to be faithful to all of their commitments. However, there appears to be an increasing num-ber who are unfaithful to a specific commitment they have made: to live acccording to the Bethel lifestyle statement. It is difficult to determine how widespread this problem is at this time, but the consensus seems to be that incidents of lifestyle violation are on the rise. Every member of the Bethel community has made a commit-ment to live by a lifestyle that is very specific and clearly stated. Students who apply for admission sign a statement that reads, "I am acquainted with the Bethel lifestyle as stated in the admis-sions catalog and/or the admission application packet. I am willing to accept this lifestyle pattern as my own while at Bethel." Faculty and staff sign a similar agreement when signing a contract to be employed at Bethel. If we disagree with portions of the lifestyle statement there is a procedure any member of the community may initiate that would begin a review and may lead to changes in the code. There have been changes over the years. But, if we are to show faithfulness, arbitrarily violating one or more portions of the lifestyle statement is not an alternative. We have agreed to abide by the current statement until it is changed by the institution. Ignorance of Bethel's lifestyle practices is inexcusable, be-cause they are clearly stated in all application packets. It is possible there are those who are now members of this community who should not be here because of serious disagree-ments with Bethel's lifestyle or because of a lack of faithfulness. They should either reconcile their disagreements and abide by the code or go somewhere more compatible with their beliefs. No one is forced to remain at Bethel. We are all here by choice. The rest of us must realize and accept all the responsibilities that are implied by faithfulness. We must practice the Bethel lifestyle personally and with prayer, concern, and even confron-tation encourage others to also accept their responsibility while at Bethel College. We must also continue to examine, review, and when necessary, revise our policies as a community, to maintain a proper perspective while seeking the will of God for our institution. If Bethel is to remain a strong distinctive alternative in higher education, we must all practice faithfulness. warren, from page 1 Christian organization of cit-izens who lobby to change laws concerning the use of financial aid given to third world countries. "So often money goes to pay for other needs' (e.g. military aid) or if it does go to the truly needy, it is only on a temporary daily basis." Bread for the World's philosophy hinges on the fact that starvation will continue to occur until financial aid is used for more than just feed-ing people on a day-to-day basis. We are not only respon-sible to give of what we have, but to make sure that what we give is used in a manner pleasing to God. This philosophy is echoed in a song written by Warren and Dan Cassada entitled, "Better to Give-." The song compares the feelings of a man rich with "God-given" bounty and a woman trying to survive on the nothing that God has "given" her: So she questions the feeling she has in her heart Is there really a God who hears her pray? And he questions the panic it has in his heart That he has to give what God gave him away. The drive to get more takes away from the poor I know it's so hard to believe When all we need do is think these words through It's better to give than receive. 27 days until finals are over!!!

Copeland/photo Opening IM games set back Varsity sports aren't the only activities affected by the recent snow. The opening day of IM softball was postponed due to the snow. Craig Haugen, IM softball director, said he is working to reschedule the two games each team missed on April 16. With only an eight-game sche-dule it is necessary to get in as many games as possible. It appears that the missed games will be played some-time during the week rather than their usual weekend date. While coed volleyball has been progressing for the most part without problems it too saw a slate of games cancelled by the April 14 snowfall. Al-though the courts were fine, players were unable to reach the gym. Despite missing one night of play teams have already played four games and are halfway through their sche-dules. The playoffs will be played in two weeks. bakken, from page 12 finals," said Bakken, who fell in the final by a 21 - 14, 21 - 12 score. "I had some allergy trouble the night before the finals so I had to take an antihistamine which made me feel a little groggy during the match." Although the players were pleased with their play they were also a little disappointed at not being able to win a team place and not receiving any financial support from Bethel. "If we had two guys that had done nothing we would have been second place easy," said Bakken, who earned a $300 scholarship for his place. "Next yea-r if we get some' people to go we could win it (the team title)." All three players were slightly miffed that they had to finance the whole trip out of their own pockets.

"If we were asking a lot I would understand not getting any help," said Trautmann. "But it would be nice to get just a little help here and there. Paul has really put Bethel on the map and it's great advertising for Bethel, too." Athletic Director George Henry is not unsympathetic of the players' needs, but he explains it isn't easy to just give money out. "I sure am sympathetic to sending quality kids some-place," he said. "But when you have only $150,000 to sup-port 16 varsity sports, where do you find money to support others? We don't have enough money to adequately support our current sports." "I offer them congratula-tions," Henry added. "I think it's great they've done so well but do we give up one sport to finance them?" Bakken, who has tried to get money the past three years, understands the situa-tion but thinks it's unfortu-nate some money isn't avail-able. "I do realize their hands are tied but I wish we could get more players down there (to the tournament)," he said. "I think it's too bad they're let-ting a national title go down like that." by Mike Doran The MIAC is known as one of the best small college con-ferences in the nation, but you would be hard pressed to tell it judging by the confer-ence's team names. Here is a ranking of the team names, from best to worst: 1. Bethel Royals—accord-ing to the dictiOnary: "Of or pertaining to a king," and in Bethel's case, the king of the forest, the lion. Not bad. 2. St. Mary's Red Men— since it was once an all-female school, it is surprising the name is not lied Persons. This team name is short for North American Indians. Not bad, either, but not very original, there are a lOt of teams named after Indians. 3. Hamline !Pipers—accord-by John Lilleberg It seems the red-hot wom-en's tennis team has finally met its match—snow! After an initial loss to St. Thomas, the team swept its next three matches. This week all duel meets were cancelled due to winter's untimely—but ex-tremely successful—come-back. However, the team did participate in an individual tournament at Macalester. Once again the team was well represented by its individ-uals— in particular Kathy Lee. Lee began winning her first two matches against oppo-nents from the University of Minnesota at Duluth and St. Cloud State. Lee then faltered against an opponent from Carleton in the semifinals. She later lost the third place match. Despite the fourth place finish Lee had mixed feelings about her play, "I was good and -bad. I had two good matches and two bad ones—but I won one of the bad ones." Sarah Runion represented 4. Macalester Scots—im-agine Bethel's name as the "Swedes." Not a very good team name. 5. Concordia Cobbers- Concordia is in the middle of corn country, and a cobber is someone who strips corn. A fitting, but stupid name. 6. Gustavus Adolphus Gusties—short for Gustavus Adolphus because no one can pronounce it. At least they have an excuse for not having an original team name. Bethel in the other singles spot. In the first round Run-ion won a cliffhanger against a tough Carleton opponent. She lost her next two matches to players from Southwest State. In doubles, the teams of Sherri Isvik-Connie Masters and Sharon Johnson-Lisa Iver-son lost their first round matches. Despite the losses the girls did not seem too dis-appointed in the face of such stiff competition. As Iverson put it,‘"We played pretty well. It was tough competition— there were a lot of division two schools there." One of the obstacles that the team is experiencing is the fact that other schools have access to indoor practice facilities. Bethel has been able to acquire only limited court time. One look at the team's record shows that this has not been a factor thus far. However, only time will tell if the layoff will hurt the team in the long run. The next match will be to-morrow, April 23, at St. Scho-lastica. new conference member Carleton Carls, and St. Olaf Oles—all these schools lack the creativity to have a real team name, so they just add 'ies' to the first syllable of their school name. Thankful-ly, our founding fathers did not fall prey to such dullness, The Bethel Bethies sounds a bit too pansy-like. 11. St. John's johnnies—far and away loser; not only is creativity lacking, but the re-sult is slang for toilets. Be-cause it is an all-male school, you could say slang for men's rooms, too. Even their pep club, "The Rat Pack, is bet ter named. Very bad. League lacks in team names Conference is tough athletically, but weak in originality ing to the dictionary: "one 7. Four-way tie.

The training room. Neal Dutton, Bethel's athletic trainer, and seven student trainers assist in the rehabilitation of injured athletes. "We have a well-equipped training room for a school this size," Dutton said. Among the equipment available for injured athletes are a whirl-pool, Orthotron (a rehabilita-tion machine specifically for ankles and knees), Fitron (for injured athletes to rebuild strength), plus various forms of electro-therapeutic ma-chines. A graduate of Eastern Washington University, Dut-ton majored in physical edu-cation with an emphasis on athletic training. He then re-ceived his Master's Degree at South Dakota State Univer-sity where he served as a graduate assistant athletic trainer. Dutton has been been at Bethel for three years. Dutton travels with the football and hockey teams and is respon-sible for the health of the players. The other teams each have their own student train-ers. Dutton is in charge of eval-uating athletic injuries and prescribing treatment. Ath-letes who suffer injuries re-ceive treatment before and after practice. "Athletes must have a least full range of mo-tion and at least 80% of their strength before they can re-turn to action," said Dutton. The team physician has the by John Clark "When it rains, it pours," says the Morton's salt slogan. When it comes to describ-ing Minnesota snow we need a different ditty. How about "when it snows, it comes at the wrong time of the year." That would probably be baseball coach Neal Dutton's sentiment. With the season not even half over, the Royal baseball team has already had nine games cancelled, with four of the contests being MIAC games. "At first I was really frus-trated," said Dutton of the cancelled games. "But now its gotten to be kind of funny. There's no sense in getting frustrated when you can't do anything about it." Bethel has gotten only eight games in so far this season final say as to when an ath-lete can resume training said Dutton. The student trainers are re-sponsible for travelling with a team, taping injuries, pre-game preparation, exercising with the athletes, and attend-ing practices and games to watch for injuries. "We have an excellent staff of student trainers," said Dutton. Before admitted, the student trainers go through an appli-cation and screening process. They must complete 1,800 hours of athletic training be-fore they can graduate. Then they are eligible to take the National Certification Test for Athletic Trainers. and six of them came during the team's trip to Texas dur-ing spring break. Unfortun-ately the Royals were over-matched in Texas and dropped a doubleheader to Hamline on April 11, leaving Bethel's record at 0-8. But Dutton isn't overly con-cerned with his team's record now. Two of the defeats in Texas came at the hands of a team that had just taken a pair of games from the num-ber- one ranked University Texas Longhorns. What does have Dutton con-cerned, however, is all the time the players have spent in the gym practicing. "I feel bad for the guys," explained Dutton. "We went down to Texas and the play-ers saw how great it was to get outside and now we have to get back into the gym. I don't want them to get dis- The student trainers for this year are seniors Brad Kroulik and Becky Bloem, juniors Paul Albinson and Jenny Willard and sophomores Beth Carlson, Dean Wennerberg and Jim Krier. "I really enjoy the program because it gives us a chance to work with all the teams," said Willard.

"One of the main goals is to see all the ropes an athletic trainer goes through and just being in charge of the health and physical aspect of the athletes," she said. couraged." Against Hamline the Roy-als failed to get the hits when they most needed them. With a chance to win the first game Bethel failed to score with the bases loaded and one out in the sixth inning. "The second game we just didn't hit," commented Dut-ton. "We had no errors in both games so I'm happy about that." If bad weather forces post-ponement or cancellations of many more MIAC games there could be a major problem in deciding a league champion. A team has to play one-half of its games to officially win the title. "It's possible that we might not have a true league cham-pion," said Dutton. Which would be very fit-ting, since we haven't had a true spring this year either.

Bakken, Trautmann and Kathy Stellema all brought medals in a national collegiate racquetball tournament at Memphis, TN. Childs/photo Three Bethel racquetball players went to the national collegiate rac-quetball tournament and their per-formance helped to put Bethel's name on the map in collegiate circles. Leading the way was a second-place finish by Paul Bakken in the number-one singles division. Dave Trautmann came up with a third-place performance in the number-two singles and Kathy Stellema also placed third in her division. Bakken and Trautmann scored enough points to take the second spot in team scoring in the tournament played at Memphis, TN. Unfortunate-ly, they didn't qualify because they , didn't have a doubles team. Along with Stellema's points the trio could have been the first place team, but again didn't have enough qualifying players. "We kind of got rooked," said Stel- Kathy Stellema lema of the situation. "It really doesn't make much sense but those are the rules." Stellema advanced through three rounds of play before losing in the semi-finals. Playing in the consola-tion game, Stellema gained second place winning by 21-10 and 21-7 scores. Her efforts netted Stellema a $200 scholarship for placing third. Trautmann went through five rounds before losing. Falling behind after losing the first game 19-21, Trautmann came back strong to take third 21-11 and 11-2. Trautmann also earned a $200 scholarship for third place. "I haven't played in a tournament for a while so when it came to the semis I wasn't mentally prepared to play," said Trautmann of his play. "I was able to put it together in the third place game, though." After teaming up with Don Consta-ble and taking the doubles champion-ship the past two years, Bakken de-cided to try his hand in singles play.

The team finished sec-ond overall, and qualified sev-eral women for the confer-ence meet in May. Linda Channer, who has already qualified for nationals in the 5,000 meters, was the team's top performer once again. She won the 5,000 in a wind-hampered 18:07, then won the 3,000 meters in 11:03. First time performer Pam Becker was a smash at the meet, taking first in the dis-cus with a toss of 110 191/2"; a throw which qualified her for the conference. meet. Kris Hartzell also qualified for the conference meet by taking third in the 100 meter hur-dles. Laurie Staurseth was fourth in that race. Kendra French took second in the 200 meter dash at 28.7, Terri Thompson was second in the 400 meter hurdles while Staurseth was fifth, the 800 meter relay team was second and the 400 meter relay team third. Rachel Urban ran a per-sonal record in the 1500 me-ters to take fifth, and she also took fourth in the 3000 meters. "We have a real advantage now over the other confer-ence teams," said Head Coach Cindy Book. "We've run twice outdoors now, while many of the other teams haven't run outdoors at all." Bethel netters need experience Young Royal tennis team finds life tough in MIAC by John Lilleberg The inexperienced men's tennis team found out how tough the MIAC can be as they ran into the two most feared teams in the confer-ence last week. Things began with an away match against mighty Gusta-vus at Lund Arena in St. Peter. The result was a 9-0 victory for the defending conference champions from Gustavus. The score is not unusual for Bethel matches against the Gusties. Last year Bethel's 8- 1 loss (with the lone Bethel win coming from Dave McIver and Tim Magnuson in dou-bles) marked the only time the Royals had ever won a match against the Gusties. The final score was the same (9-0) against St. Olaf. The Royals did, however, have some close matches against the perennial confer-ence number two team. The most notable of these was the third doubles match with Kurt Berg and Scott Moyer repre-senting Bethel. Despite the losses this sea-son the team has not been disheartened. There is a sense of frustration among some of the players but no one has given up. Number one singles player Ken Dahlquist summed up the situation, "It's tough when we play teams with indoor courts who hit every-day. I think we have a good attitude. We're young—main-ly freshmen and some sopho-mores— and we know the other teams have more ex-perience." This afternoon, April 22, at 3 p.m. the team will attempt to defeat Hamline for the sec-ond year in a row in a home match.

Transcript | Scott Warren will give a benefit concert for Bread for the World. the Clarion INSIDE: SMP directory pages 4, 5 Overview of BSA candidates pages 6, 7 vol. 58, no. 26 3900 bethel dr., st. paul, mn 55112 april 22, 1983 Warren sings for others' suppers by Laurie Lindahl I failed Journalism 101 to-day. I interviewed'Scott War-ren, professional Christian performer, without doing my "homework." Before the inter-view, all I knew about Warren was that he is doing a benefit concert for Bread for the World at 7:30 this evening, April 22, in the Robertson Physical Education Center. (Tickets are $3 at the door). Now, as all good journal-ists know, the first rule to good interviewing is to know something about your inter-viewee. This is called theory. It is found in textbooks and on chalkboards. Occasionally, theory gets lost in a boring book and reality erases the board with only a shadow of chalk left to outline those proverbial keys to success. This happens enough so that we are not shaken when it does and happily surprised when it does not. I was happily surprised by Scott Warren. He fuses the-ory, or his philosophy of things, into the practice of his music in a way that refuses to bore or pamper his audience. He is subtle. "I like to make people think about what I'm saying without having to spell it out to them," he said. "I want them to listen and draw their own conclusions." In this way, Warren is like an artist painting a picture— there are many different in-terpretations, but each person must find his or her own. This is rather new for those of us on the Christian concert consortium who are used to being told what a song is going to say even before we hear it. This is part of what makes Scott Warren unique—he refuses to spoon-feed his audience. "When I compose," he said, "I try to write about what my audience needs to hear, not what they want to hear." This is no easy task, especially considering the variety of peo-ple he plays to. Whether he is playing in a club, a state uni-versity or a private college, his main concern is to be able to communicate to a non- Christian audience. "For a long time, Christian artists have tended to edify the Chris-tian community—and that's important too—but I think the real place we should be sowing seeds is in the non- Christian marketplace," he said. "Too often we ignore or neglect this responsibility." Ah, responsibility . . . Does this have anything to do with the fact that you are doing a benefit concert for Bread for the World? I asked. Warren smiled. "I believe in Bread for the World because it is an organization that is seeking to claim this responsibility," he said. Bread for the World is a warren, see page 9 Three criteria guide Bethel admission policy by Paul Davis Bethel has an admissions policy based on three areas. The first of the three re-quirements is the academic area. This is the most impor-tant area of consideration. Three things are evaluated in this area. First is the appli-cant's previous academic rec-ord. This is usually the high school transcript. Second is the applicant's rank in the class. Only students in the 50 and above percentile are con-sidered for regular admission. Third is the college entrance exam score. According to Dan Nelson, director of enrollment, the most important aspect is the student's actual overall per-formance. "We look for stu-dents with more college prep courses, social studies, math, science, and foreign language. Students with a 2.0 GPA or higher are considered for ad-mission. The second area of require-ment is the Christian Faith Statement. This is a statement found in the application pack-et, that reads: "Do you con-sider yourself a Christian?" It is followed by a "yes" box and a "no" box. The applicant is to check the appropriate box, and then to explain the an-swer. These are read by the admissions committee, which consists of Phil Kimball, direc-tor of admissions, Chet Duck, registrar, and a member of the student development office. The committee decides whether the explanation is ac-ceptable. If it is not, the appli-cant is informed of the rea-son, and admission to Bethel is denied. For students wishing to ap-peal the decision, an appeals procedure is available. An ap-peals committee made up of students and faculty meets on demand to review appeals. A student can be admitted to Bethel upon request of the appeals committee. The third basis for admis-sion is the acceptance of the Bethel lifestyle. The lifestyle statement must be dated and signed for acceptance, if it is not, the application form is returned to the applicant to be signed. When the signed form is received, the admis-sions board will consider ad-mitting the applicant. There is more than one type of admission. The first kind is regular admission. Most of the students at Bethel (85- 90%) are admitted "regularly." This means that the student has submitted all of the nec-essary forms for admission, his or her admission has been reviewed by the admissions board, and he or she has been accepted. The second kind of admis-sion is a provisional admis-sion. These applicants have met all of the requirements except the academics. But the admissions committee feels that they have the ability to do well at the college level, if they adhere to special stipu-lations. Some are not allowed to participate in extra-cur-ricular activities, or are re-quired to participate in study groups. The third kind of admis-sion is special admission. This is given to community mem-bers or employees who wish to pick up an extra course, but who are not looking for a degree. The last kind of admission admissions, see page 8 WA-`i (41006 IS 11--E Atnik-K5 TRE mO5C LS-Taxi gai5sin, ail WE3 \la THE EWAI6td . Christians' 'dialects' build needless barriers "Have you invited Jesus to step into your heart? He's standing outside knocking, but the only doorknob is on the inside," said the Sunday school teacher. My German friend—a committed Christian—looked blank. She didn't know the dialect. She could talk about confession of her sins and communion with her Lord and obedience, but not about hearts with pedestrians and doorknobs. Neither my friend nor the teacher could translate the other's way of talking about her experience. This friend of mine, as loyal a Catholic as I am a Baptist, left the Sunday school class with the feeling that she had been weighed in the balance and found wanting. What was it that prevented these two "sisters" from knowing and feeling their common bond? From glorifying their God together? Language, it seems, can be a barrier as well as a bridge between humans. I'm very sorry that my friend and my Sunday school teacher missed an uncommon opportunity: glorifying God together with a "stranger." I would never wish or pray for a watered-down version of Christianity in which any individual's relationship to God is undermined "just so that we can all agree." But I do pray, and earnestly, that brothers and sisters can get past differing descriptions to the shared meaning they camouflage. gh Rape, 'harmless fun' stem from same attitude JoAnn Watkins/editor Paul Davis/associate editor Don Copeland/photography editor Ginger Hope/copy editor John Clark/sports editor Neal Bernards/editorial assistant Mike Doran/editorial assistant Lynnette Monrer/editorial assistant Pam Sundeen/business manager Tammy Gregersen/ad sales Brian S.

Twelve other men in the bar re-sponded to her screams for help during the two-hour or-deal by cheering the rapist. About the same time, four Bethel men left notes in the POs of ten Bethel women, honoring them as the "Top Ten Women at Bethel." We respond to this "Top Ten" list with the same rage shown by the citizens of New Bedford who gutted the bar; we will not tolerate attitudes that regard women as objects. This list, published by the "Phoenomenal (sic) Fours," may seem innocuous corn-pared to the rape, but it comes from the same mentality which treats women as less than complete human beings. On a list such as this, worn-en are evaluated by our phys-ical appearances rather than by our abilities, experiences, and perceptions. Women are valued only insofar as we relate to men, not as human beings. The men who stood by and watched the young woman raped saw her not as a human being whose body was her own, but as chattel, whose body was for their use. We are more than pieces of meat, to be rated "1-10" on "harmless, fun" lists. "Harm-less, fun," sexist, objectifying lists form attitudes which al-low twelve men to watch a fellow human being's person brutally violated. We, the undersigned, refuse to tolerate these "fun" jokes any more than we tolerate brutal rapes. We ask women at Bethel to become aware of these painful attitudes and to seek one another's strength and support in fighting against them. In solidarity, Julie Bach Patti S.

In the past, these students have been left alone in plan-ning their courses in these areas. But beginning next year, a new health professions advisor will be available to help students. This position will be filled by Dale Steph-ens, professor of chemistry. According to Stephens, "stu-dents need to be aware of options other than medical school." This new advisor will begin next fall to help students plan their future in the medical fields. The responsibilities of this advisor will be: 1) To gather and maintain informa-tion from all schools and pro-grams in health-related fields, 2) coordinate activities of the student group(s), 3) advise students on course selection for the specific programs they are pursuing, 4) assist in pre-paring students for MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test), DAT {Dental /Aptitude Test), etc., 5) aid in the re-cruitment of prospective stu-dents, 6) represent Bethel at open houses and such affairs the Clarion at local medical schools, and Stephens.

"Only a half mile and you get to break," stated the second wave. "The wait really wasn't that bad, I think I even may have learned something." The wave continued to build in preparation of the final break. "I'm glad that you rolled and waited with the rest of us. Had you broken when you wanted to, our timing would have been all messed up," gurgled another. "I can't believe that the first spring thaw is already here," said the icicle as it dripped unto the pavement below. "Just think, you finally get to melt," stated the second icicle. "Now that I think about it, I really didn't mind the cold." The icicle continued to melt as it hung from the garage roof. "I'm glad that you decided to hang in there and wait like the rest of us. The timing just wasn't quite right before," stated the second icicle. "I can't believe that the smaller ponds are starting to freeze over," said the duck as it prepared its wings for takeoff. "Migration time is finally here," stated the second duck. "I'm glad that I listened to that inner voice and stuck around with all you other ducks." The duck checked over its flight list one last time. "It's good that you waited. Had you left, you never would have met your new wife," quacked another. The little boy arrived home, went in, and smiled. "Thank you for your answer. You do hear all that I say. You understand all that I think. Thank you for helping me wait and be patient.

An interest in leadership and motivating people is why Anderson is running for vice president though he lacks ex-perience with Bethel student government. He is a history and political science major with plans for graduate school in political science. Barr and Anderson said they would like to see the senate as a more viable force in the community. With a one-ness of purpose they said they feel that the students can do things to affect Bethel and the community. "We'd like to see the Bethel community active in BSA activities," said Barr. He suggested open forums. "We- want to be more in touch with the students," An-derson added. "with a panel for questons and a place to take gripes we want to be a voice to student organiza-tions." He said, "We're stress-ing leadership for the students representing the students, pushing for what students want." Instead of concentrating on internal changes in the senate, Barr said they plan to focus on external changes that will have an effect on Bethel and the community. He said the internal changes are impor-tant but will not be their pri-mary goal. "Bethel needs more concen-by Neal Bernardo "Servant leadership made visible" typifies the style of leadership Steve Van Sickle and Bob Thompson hope to provide as president and vice • president of BSA. "We plan to live what we're doing," said Van Sickle. "We'll assess the role of president and vice president and fit them to our personal talents. That way we can use our strengths in important areas." Both Van Sickle and Thompson served as student senators last year and as pres-ident pro tempore this year. Thompson, a political science major, resigned from the posi-tion to commit ample time to being an AD. Because of sche-duling conflicts and the dis-tance involved, the two have met only once to put together a campaign and a philosophy. Recently, Thompson and Van Sickle attended the 1983 Taylor Leadership Conference at Taylor University in Indi-ana. Both were very im-pressed by that school's stu-dent government. "We'd like to incorporate into the Bethel constitution a student leadership board that includes representatives from not only the BSA, but also groups such as the Clarion, Inter-Varsity, and other or-ganizations," said Van Sickle. "The system works very well at Taylor." Van Sickle would also like to institute a fall break for the 1984-85 school year by going through the proper adminis-trative channels. "Many peo-ple I've talked to want a four-or five-day weekend during the fall. If we can show there's a need for it, we can pass it." Budget cuts threaten the existence of many organiza-tions at Bethel. In a time of declining enrollment, the mon-ey will become even tighter. Van Sickle plans to fight for the retention of as many ac-tivities as possible. "I feel that I have a real good hand with the administration because I've worked with them on dif-ferent projects." Van Sickle would like to open up corn-municatoin between adminis-trators and students. "Stu-dents need to see the pres-ident walking around, to real-ize that he's a real person. We all have a united purpose in education." In order for Student Senate to be effective, Van Sickle feels that students need to be involved. However, he does not entirely blame them, but places part of the fault on the BSA for not properly inform-ing students. Marked for par-ticular improvement is stu-dent participation on joint committees. "Students don't realize the influence they have," said Van Sickle. "A lot of grass roots stuff begins in committee. Few colleges af-ford students an equal vote with faculty on policy issues like Bethel does." "Another way we'd like to see studehts involved is to get them out in the community. We need to develop an aware-ness of BSA outside of Bethel. It would add credibility to BSA for the future if we could pull off some service projects very professionally. That way, people won't be afraid to come here when they need help." Van Sickle senses that a Tack of school spirit plagues Bethel and keeps it from reaching its full potential. "It's been said a lot before, but we need to develop a real campus unity. We'd like to create a parent's booster club, not just parents of those in athletics, but any who are interested. We don't want money, just support. We'd like to expand on the good start made this year." Van Sickle also hopes to expand the Student Senate. "We'd like to work closely with Campus Coordinator to make events more palatable. At the recent Farrell and Far-rell concert only 200 tickets were sold to Bethel students. We need gimmicks and adver-tising to get people on campus involved." An important part of Stu-dent Senate is the individual representative. "They must to be sensitive to the needs and ideas of their constituency," said Van Sickle. "By using the grapevine they discover com-mon gripes and positive reac-tions. At our meetings they can be discussed and analyzed to see if anything can be done." Despite all the proposed changes, Van Sickle merely sees next year as a continua-tion of this one. "Basically we want to keep up with what Steve (Goodwin) and Steve (Lemon) have done. They've established a good credibility base, and we'll build from there."

"The one thing we can come together on is Jesus Christ to have an emphasis on one truth rather than many." He said, "We're also Christains serving God, seek-ing to know him better and receive an education. We need to have an identity as a Chris-tian school, not just another school." Barr said to vote for them one would need to believe in their character and in them as individuals. "And think we'll work hard," he added. "Whatever we do, our focus should be on Christ," said Barr. He said they would like to see the students more in-volved in community service and taking political stands. "We have this idea of what needs to happen," said An-derson. "It may be a longer process than we think [to mo-tivate people]. We're not ex-actly sure how we're going to do it. You don't know how to begin except to provide strong leadership." Barr said he would also like to see the representatives speak in the dorms and with the people they represent. They said that they would like the senate representation to remain by class levels, in regards to the proposed new constitution. Barr said a reorganization of the financial structure is needed and he favors the idea of a student comptroller to oversee the BSA budgets. "We want to be more than someone who shakes his or her head and smiles, agreeing with everything," Anderson said. Anderson said he thinks he and Barr can work together. "We have a unity and a check and balance," he said. "We're genuinely con-cerned about Bethel," said Barr. "We want to convince people of our convicton to serve Bethel. In a nutshell, we want to be there to serve Bethel College." Carlson/Eliason by JoAnn Watkins "We see an abundance of opportunities and they're ex-citing opportunities," said Barry Carlson, candidate for BSA President. "We're in this to do our jobs and to do it well," said his vice-presidential running mate, Marilyn Eliason. Carlson, a business major, brings experience from his own company as well as 3- M and Control Data. He pres-ently serves on the Food Ser-vice committee and is a mem-ber of the Bethel Business Association. "I know there are a lot of things I can bring to BSA," said Carlson. Though Carlson met Eliason within the last two weeks he said he does not see any problems. "Of the six running no one is as qualified as Marilyn." As .BSA Executive Secre-tary this year and as a senator during her freshman and sophomore years, Eliason has experience working with sen-ate. She has served as chair-person of the Public Action Committee, on the committee for handicapped students, member of the Hunger Action Coalition for Minnesota, Mid-west Regional coordinator for the American Association for Evangelical Students and Na-tional Publications Director for AAES. She is presently 'a' member of the Convocations Committee and involved in the campaign for financial aid. "Our campaign is centered around a holistic atmosphere: spiritual, academic, and so-cial," said Eliason. She said they hope to make the student organization more visible and continue the programs of ser-vice that BSA is involved with. "We'd like to establish a committee for getting people excited for what's going on at Bethel," said Carlson. He ex-plained that this committee would promote school spirit and beginning new Bethel traditions. Other issues the two can-didates wish to address is the inclusion of students in the process of establishing the budget. They said they would like to bring back the All- School Banquet. Carlson said he would like to see students working to promote the image of the Bethel student in the Twin Cities area. As vice-president of the BSA, Eliason's duties would center around the Student Senate. She said she plans to work for an efficiently run senate. "I'd like to see a train-ing program for senators so they know more about the senate and how it functions," she said. Another idea to • increase comunication with the stu-dents is a news flyer to go in the dining areas regarding is-sues the BSA is dealing with. "We want students to know what they're paying for and to get what they're paying for," said Eliason. "Most peo-ple don't know how to voice their views about decisions such as where their money is being spent." She said, "Stu-dents are paying more and more and more and getting less and less and less." "We've got to find a way to make people see the good they're accomplishing as sen-ators and how they are bene-fiting themselves," Carlson said. "They have to see beyond sitting in meetings and see what they are doing in the long run." "If BSA represents the school then the entire school should be represented in the BSA," said Eliason. She said she would like to see the un-derclassmen better represent-ed and involved in the BSA organizations. "The role," she said, "of the BSA is to work to get the students together and work together." Carlson said he and Eliason fit together well in relation to their experience and ideas, and that they both feel they can work together. "Our purpose is to promote what we can do best for the students," said Eliason. "We're in this to do our jobs and to do them well." She said, "We don't have all the answers, but we want to give it our best shot."

Lexington Shoreview, MN 55112 ew page 8 the Clarion april 22, 1983 Campus recruiting, job offers down for class of '83 (CPS)—Despite some encour-aging signs that the nation's economy may be starting to pull out of the worst Ameri-can recession since World War II, the recovery has yet to show up on campus, and prob-ably won't in time to help this spring's graduates find jobs right away, college placement officers say. In fact, campus recruiting and the number of job offers to graduating seniors are down again this spring, while experts say starting salaries are lagging behind even the declining inflation rate. Even engineers and compu-ter science majors, who gen-erally have had their pick of jobs in recent years, are hav-ing more trouble getting work this spring, the officers add. "Last year was a tough year, and this year's going to be even worse," warns Victor Lindquist, placement chief at Northwestern University and director of the Endicott Re-port, an annual survey of job prospects for college grads nationwide. "For the Class of '83, it'll be the toughest year since World War II," adds Jack Shingleton, Michigan State's placement director and coordinator of that school's annual national student job survey. Other campus placement di-rectors report spring recruit-ment is off as much as 50 per-cent from last year's de-pressed levels. Consequently, the summer job market will be - more crowded than ever, with fewer jobs available as companies continue to delay hiring new employees. "There'll be 1,300,000 stu-dents graduating this spring," Shingleton points out. "There'll be a million jobs open." Overall, Shingleton thinks students with bachelor's de-grees will get 17 percent fewer job offers than a year ago. Liberal arts majors will have the hardest time finding work, Shingleton's study found. Things are better for elec-trical engineers, computer science, business and other engineering grads, in that or-der. Oregon State Associate Placement Director Majorie McBride is urging students to "get out and contact employ-ers directly," rather than rely-ing on campus interviews. "This year is just the worst I've ever seen," she moans. "We'll be hiring considera-bly less this year," says Phil DeLong, spokesman for the American Telephone and Tel-egraph's college recruitment division. "Partly because of the economy, and partly be-cause of our divestiture pro-ceedings, we're taking a cau-tious, wait-and-see attitude." admissions, from page 1 is special admission. This is given to community members or employees who wish to pick up an extra course, but who are not looking for a degree. The last kind of admission is credential admission. "This is the rarest type of admis-sion," said Nelson, "there are only four to six in any given year." These students take classes, but are not enrolled as students. They come to Bethel for one year or one semester, the amount of time is determined by the admis-sions committee. These stu-dents receive no financial aid, and are placed on the bottom of the housing priority list. If they show that they can han-dle the college level work, they are allowed to enroll as regular students and their grades are put on their per-manent records. According to Nelson, the statement of faith is more important than the academ-ics. "Bethel is not a mission," said Nelson. "We don't want people to parrot what they have heard when they sign the profession of faith. There's a difference between saying it and really coming to grips with it," said Nelson. "Bethel is under pressure to lower academic standards, but we have not," said Nel-son. "We know who we are, and everyone else knows who we are," he added. The number of students ad-mitted each year is about 85- 90% of the number of applica-tions received. Of the appli-cations received between 5% and 8% are flatly , rejected. This low denial rate is due to the fact that most applicants know what Bethel is about, said Nelson. Surveys taken in the fall of the freshman year show a high degree of satis-faction with Bethel. Nelson said that the big-gest reason for next year's drop in continuing students is the large number of graduates this year. "The administration has successfully cut the bud-get without cutting offerings," said Nelson. "Next year's stu-dents receive no _reduc-tion of service from Bethel." no comment Study Spanish in Sevilla SPAIN Intsnslv* study Baginner through Advancod Trips starting Fall and Winter Semester coot approx.

Submit entries in the Clarion office or PO 2381 by April 30. by George Palke The newly distributed 1983-84 Registration catalog has on page 5 "An Invitation to Bethel College." Included in this invita-tion are basic principles upon which all activities at Bethel are built. The fourth of these principles states "The reality of the Christian life will be apparent in personalities that show the `fruit of the spirit....love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, good-ness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. — The familiar passage from Galatians that is used here includes many attri-butes that are evident in a Christian's life. However, I would like to zero in on just one, faithfulness, and one way it applies to the Bethel community. Being faithful is to be true to one's word, promise, or vow. In the Bethel community most people try to be faithful to all of their commitments. However, there appears to be an increasing num-ber who are unfaithful to a specific commitment they have made: to live acccording to the Bethel lifestyle statement. It is difficult to determine how widespread this problem is at this time, but the consensus seems to be that incidents of lifestyle violation are on the rise. Every member of the Bethel community has made a commit-ment to live by a lifestyle that is very specific and clearly stated. Students who apply for admission sign a statement that reads, "I am acquainted with the Bethel lifestyle as stated in the admis-sions catalog and/or the admission application packet. I am willing to accept this lifestyle pattern as my own while at Bethel." Faculty and staff sign a similar agreement when signing a contract to be employed at Bethel. If we disagree with portions of the lifestyle statement there is a procedure any member of the community may initiate that would begin a review and may lead to changes in the code. There have been changes over the years. But, if we are to show faithfulness, arbitrarily violating one or more portions of the lifestyle statement is not an alternative. We have agreed to abide by the current statement until it is changed by the institution. Ignorance of Bethel's lifestyle practices is inexcusable, be-cause they are clearly stated in all application packets. It is possible there are those who are now members of this community who should not be here because of serious disagree-ments with Bethel's lifestyle or because of a lack of faithfulness. They should either reconcile their disagreements and abide by the code or go somewhere more compatible with their beliefs. No one is forced to remain at Bethel. We are all here by choice. The rest of us must realize and accept all the responsibilities that are implied by faithfulness. We must practice the Bethel lifestyle personally and with prayer, concern, and even confron-tation encourage others to also accept their responsibility while at Bethel College. We must also continue to examine, review, and when necessary, revise our policies as a community, to maintain a proper perspective while seeking the will of God for our institution. If Bethel is to remain a strong distinctive alternative in higher education, we must all practice faithfulness. warren, from page 1 Christian organization of cit-izens who lobby to change laws concerning the use of financial aid given to third world countries. "So often money goes to pay for other needs' (e.g. military aid) or if it does go to the truly needy, it is only on a temporary daily basis." Bread for the World's philosophy hinges on the fact that starvation will continue to occur until financial aid is used for more than just feed-ing people on a day-to-day basis. We are not only respon-sible to give of what we have, but to make sure that what we give is used in a manner pleasing to God. This philosophy is echoed in a song written by Warren and Dan Cassada entitled, "Better to Give-." The song compares the feelings of a man rich with "God-given" bounty and a woman trying to survive on the nothing that God has "given" her: So she questions the feeling she has in her heart Is there really a God who hears her pray? And he questions the panic it has in his heart That he has to give what God gave him away. The drive to get more takes away from the poor I know it's so hard to believe When all we need do is think these words through It's better to give than receive. 27 days until finals are over!!!

Copeland/photo Opening IM games set back Varsity sports aren't the only activities affected by the recent snow. The opening day of IM softball was postponed due to the snow. Craig Haugen, IM softball director, said he is working to reschedule the two games each team missed on April 16. With only an eight-game sche-dule it is necessary to get in as many games as possible. It appears that the missed games will be played some-time during the week rather than their usual weekend date. While coed volleyball has been progressing for the most part without problems it too saw a slate of games cancelled by the April 14 snowfall. Al-though the courts were fine, players were unable to reach the gym. Despite missing one night of play teams have already played four games and are halfway through their sche-dules. The playoffs will be played in two weeks. bakken, from page 12 finals," said Bakken, who fell in the final by a 21 - 14, 21 - 12 score. "I had some allergy trouble the night before the finals so I had to take an antihistamine which made me feel a little groggy during the match." Although the players were pleased with their play they were also a little disappointed at not being able to win a team place and not receiving any financial support from Bethel. "If we had two guys that had done nothing we would have been second place easy," said Bakken, who earned a $300 scholarship for his place. "Next yea-r if we get some' people to go we could win it (the team title)." All three players were slightly miffed that they had to finance the whole trip out of their own pockets.

"If we were asking a lot I would understand not getting any help," said Trautmann. "But it would be nice to get just a little help here and there. Paul has really put Bethel on the map and it's great advertising for Bethel, too." Athletic Director George Henry is not unsympathetic of the players' needs, but he explains it isn't easy to just give money out. "I sure am sympathetic to sending quality kids some-place," he said. "But when you have only $150,000 to sup-port 16 varsity sports, where do you find money to support others? We don't have enough money to adequately support our current sports." "I offer them congratula-tions," Henry added. "I think it's great they've done so well but do we give up one sport to finance them?" Bakken, who has tried to get money the past three years, understands the situa-tion but thinks it's unfortu-nate some money isn't avail-able. "I do realize their hands are tied but I wish we could get more players down there (to the tournament)," he said. "I think it's too bad they're let-ting a national title go down like that." by Mike Doran The MIAC is known as one of the best small college con-ferences in the nation, but you would be hard pressed to tell it judging by the confer-ence's team names. Here is a ranking of the team names, from best to worst: 1. Bethel Royals—accord-ing to the dictiOnary: "Of or pertaining to a king," and in Bethel's case, the king of the forest, the lion. Not bad. 2. St. Mary's Red Men— since it was once an all-female school, it is surprising the name is not lied Persons. This team name is short for North American Indians. Not bad, either, but not very original, there are a lOt of teams named after Indians. 3. Hamline !Pipers—accord-by John Lilleberg It seems the red-hot wom-en's tennis team has finally met its match—snow! After an initial loss to St. Thomas, the team swept its next three matches. This week all duel meets were cancelled due to winter's untimely—but ex-tremely successful—come-back. However, the team did participate in an individual tournament at Macalester. Once again the team was well represented by its individ-uals— in particular Kathy Lee. Lee began winning her first two matches against oppo-nents from the University of Minnesota at Duluth and St. Cloud State. Lee then faltered against an opponent from Carleton in the semifinals. She later lost the third place match. Despite the fourth place finish Lee had mixed feelings about her play, "I was good and -bad. I had two good matches and two bad ones—but I won one of the bad ones." Sarah Runion represented 4. Macalester Scots—im-agine Bethel's name as the "Swedes." Not a very good team name. 5. Concordia Cobbers- Concordia is in the middle of corn country, and a cobber is someone who strips corn. A fitting, but stupid name. 6. Gustavus Adolphus Gusties—short for Gustavus Adolphus because no one can pronounce it. At least they have an excuse for not having an original team name. Bethel in the other singles spot. In the first round Run-ion won a cliffhanger against a tough Carleton opponent. She lost her next two matches to players from Southwest State. In doubles, the teams of Sherri Isvik-Connie Masters and Sharon Johnson-Lisa Iver-son lost their first round matches. Despite the losses the girls did not seem too dis-appointed in the face of such stiff competition. As Iverson put it,‘"We played pretty well. It was tough competition— there were a lot of division two schools there." One of the obstacles that the team is experiencing is the fact that other schools have access to indoor practice facilities. Bethel has been able to acquire only limited court time. One look at the team's record shows that this has not been a factor thus far. However, only time will tell if the layoff will hurt the team in the long run. The next match will be to-morrow, April 23, at St. Scho-lastica. new conference member Carleton Carls, and St. Olaf Oles—all these schools lack the creativity to have a real team name, so they just add 'ies' to the first syllable of their school name. Thankful-ly, our founding fathers did not fall prey to such dullness, The Bethel Bethies sounds a bit too pansy-like. 11. St. John's johnnies—far and away loser; not only is creativity lacking, but the re-sult is slang for toilets. Be-cause it is an all-male school, you could say slang for men's rooms, too. Even their pep club, "The Rat Pack, is bet ter named. Very bad. League lacks in team names Conference is tough athletically, but weak in originality ing to the dictionary: "one 7. Four-way tie.

The training room. Neal Dutton, Bethel's athletic trainer, and seven student trainers assist in the rehabilitation of injured athletes. "We have a well-equipped training room for a school this size," Dutton said. Among the equipment available for injured athletes are a whirl-pool, Orthotron (a rehabilita-tion machine specifically for ankles and knees), Fitron (for injured athletes to rebuild strength), plus various forms of electro-therapeutic ma-chines. A graduate of Eastern Washington University, Dut-ton majored in physical edu-cation with an emphasis on athletic training. He then re-ceived his Master's Degree at South Dakota State Univer-sity where he served as a graduate assistant athletic trainer. Dutton has been been at Bethel for three years. Dutton travels with the football and hockey teams and is respon-sible for the health of the players. The other teams each have their own student train-ers. Dutton is in charge of eval-uating athletic injuries and prescribing treatment. Ath-letes who suffer injuries re-ceive treatment before and after practice. "Athletes must have a least full range of mo-tion and at least 80% of their strength before they can re-turn to action," said Dutton. The team physician has the by John Clark "When it rains, it pours," says the Morton's salt slogan. When it comes to describ-ing Minnesota snow we need a different ditty. How about "when it snows, it comes at the wrong time of the year." That would probably be baseball coach Neal Dutton's sentiment. With the season not even half over, the Royal baseball team has already had nine games cancelled, with four of the contests being MIAC games. "At first I was really frus-trated," said Dutton of the cancelled games. "But now its gotten to be kind of funny. There's no sense in getting frustrated when you can't do anything about it." Bethel has gotten only eight games in so far this season final say as to when an ath-lete can resume training said Dutton. The student trainers are re-sponsible for travelling with a team, taping injuries, pre-game preparation, exercising with the athletes, and attend-ing practices and games to watch for injuries. "We have an excellent staff of student trainers," said Dutton. Before admitted, the student trainers go through an appli-cation and screening process. They must complete 1,800 hours of athletic training be-fore they can graduate. Then they are eligible to take the National Certification Test for Athletic Trainers. and six of them came during the team's trip to Texas dur-ing spring break. Unfortun-ately the Royals were over-matched in Texas and dropped a doubleheader to Hamline on April 11, leaving Bethel's record at 0-8. But Dutton isn't overly con-cerned with his team's record now. Two of the defeats in Texas came at the hands of a team that had just taken a pair of games from the num-ber- one ranked University Texas Longhorns. What does have Dutton con-cerned, however, is all the time the players have spent in the gym practicing. "I feel bad for the guys," explained Dutton. "We went down to Texas and the play-ers saw how great it was to get outside and now we have to get back into the gym. I don't want them to get dis- The student trainers for this year are seniors Brad Kroulik and Becky Bloem, juniors Paul Albinson and Jenny Willard and sophomores Beth Carlson, Dean Wennerberg and Jim Krier. "I really enjoy the program because it gives us a chance to work with all the teams," said Willard. Willard; the softball student trainer this session, is cur-rently planning a career as a high school athletic trainer. "One of the main goals is to see all the ropes an athletic trainer goes through and just being in charge of the health and physical aspect of the athletes," she said. couraged." Against Hamline the Roy-als failed to get the hits when they most needed them. With a chance to win the first game Bethel failed to score with the bases loaded and one out in the sixth inning. "The second game we just didn't hit," commented Dut-ton. "We had no errors in both games so I'm happy about that." If bad weather forces post-ponement or cancellations of many more MIAC games there could be a major problem in deciding a league champion. A team has to play one-half of its games to officially win the title. "It's possible that we might not have a true league cham-pion," said Dutton. Which would be very fit-ting, since we haven't had a true spring this year either.

Bakken, Trautmann and Kathy Stellema all brought medals in a national collegiate racquetball tournament at Memphis, TN. Childs/photo Three Bethel racquetball players went to the national collegiate rac-quetball tournament and their per-formance helped to put Bethel's name on the map in collegiate circles. Leading the way was a second-place finish by Paul Bakken in the number-one singles division. Dave Trautmann came up with a third-place performance in the number-two singles and Kathy Stellema also placed third in her division. Bakken and Trautmann scored enough points to take the second spot in team scoring in the tournament played at Memphis, TN. Unfortunate-ly, they didn't qualify because they , didn't have a doubles team. Along with Stellema's points the trio could have been the first place team, but again didn't have enough qualifying players. "We kind of got rooked," said Stel- Kathy Stellema lema of the situation. "It really doesn't make much sense but those are the rules." Stellema advanced through three rounds of play before losing in the semi-finals. Playing in the consola-tion game, Stellema gained second place winning by 21-10 and 21-7 scores. Her efforts netted Stellema a $200 scholarship for placing third. Trautmann went through five rounds before losing. Falling behind after losing the first game 19-21, Trautmann came back strong to take third 21-11 and 11-2. Trautmann also earned a $200 scholarship for third place. "I haven't played in a tournament for a while so when it came to the semis I wasn't mentally prepared to play," said Trautmann of his play. "I was able to put it together in the third place game, though." After teaming up with Don Consta-ble and taking the doubles champion-ship the past two years, Bakken de-cided to try his hand in singles play.

The team finished sec-ond overall, and qualified sev-eral women for the confer-ence meet in May. Linda Channer, who has already qualified for nationals in the 5,000 meters, was the team's top performer once again. She won the 5,000 in a wind-hampered 18:07, then won the 3,000 meters in 11:03. First time performer Pam Becker was a smash at the meet, taking first in the dis-cus with a toss of 110 191/2"; a throw which qualified her for the conference. meet. Kris Hartzell also qualified for the conference meet by taking third in the 100 meter hur-dles. Laurie Staurseth was fourth in that race. Kendra French took second in the 200 meter dash at 28.7, Terri Thompson was second in the 400 meter hurdles while Staurseth was fifth, the 800 meter relay team was second and the 400 meter relay team third. Rachel Urban ran a per-sonal record in the 1500 me-ters to take fifth, and she also took fourth in the 3000 meters. "We have a real advantage now over the other confer-ence teams," said Head Coach Cindy Book. "We've run twice outdoors now, while many of the other teams haven't run outdoors at all." Bethel netters need experience Young Royal tennis team finds life tough in MIAC by John Lilleberg The inexperienced men's tennis team found out how tough the MIAC can be as they ran into the two most feared teams in the confer-ence last week. Things began with an away match against mighty Gusta-vus at Lund Arena in St. Peter. The result was a 9-0 victory for the defending conference champions from Gustavus. The score is not unusual for Bethel matches against the Gusties. Last year Bethel's 8- 1 loss (with the lone Bethel win coming from Dave McIver and Tim Magnuson in dou-bles) marked the only time the Royals had ever won a match against the Gusties. The final score was the same (9-0) against St. Olaf. The Royals did, however, have some close matches against the perennial confer-ence number two team. The most notable of these was the third doubles match with Kurt Berg and Scott Moyer repre-senting Bethel. Despite the losses this sea-son the team has not been disheartened. There is a sense of frustration among some of the players but no one has given up. Number one singles player Ken Dahlquist summed up the situation, "It's tough when we play teams with indoor courts who hit every-day. I think we have a good attitude. We're young—main-ly freshmen and some sopho-mores— and we know the other teams have more ex-perience." This afternoon, April 22, at 3 p.m. the team will attempt to defeat Hamline for the sec-ond year in a row in a home match. |
