for the benefit of the History major."
If a course can be given in Russian
History in the manner of Dr. Buczek,
why couldn't a course on the history of
Red Orina be established.
Dr. McCarthy also stated, ;'(or even
if the department decides to merely
restate the trends in Africa or China
where and on what could they c0ncentrate
South Africat" I don't expect
the history department to expand as
to cover the entire Asian or African
world, but at least they could make
a dent with the Introduction of a
course in on<! of the outstanding c0untries
in the area such as India, Vietnam
or Red China.
Dr. McCarthy also slated, "those
who agitated for Af*AsIan HIstory
couldn't realize themselves what they
wanted." I agree to an extent, for we
who are agitating for thi8 type of
course are baJl1ed at what we want
because .....e are lacking In guidance
and direction in study of this unknown
field at Fairfield.
Dr. McCarthy concluded his IDterview
with his solution to the p!nJb1em.
'Those who really want it can go read
books on the subject for there own
self knowledge." I'm sure that readiDc
books alone will not auft'lce for the
guidance and insight which would be
gained from a scheduled Afro..A&iaD
course. The History and Govemme:Dt
students are being cheated of an educalion.
They are being developed IntcllectuaUy

To the Editor:
W~ the following, all government
majors at Fairfield University, would
like to express our discontent with the
curriculum offered us next year.
The few courses available (two out
of thrcc) and their complete concentration
in the Western tradition are
poor choices indeed and reflect unfavorably
upon the whole government
d<!partment.
Government Majors
Voice Discontent
To the editor:
If ignorance Is bliss, the History and
Government depa.runent must be very
happy. It seems that the heads of our
Histol')' and Government see no need
of a course, even a survey course, dealing
with Afro-Asian History, As Asia
and Africa are our most troubled
areas in todays world, it would seem
that any history major graduating
without n cours<! in one of these would
!xl intellectually cheated.
The History department has stated,
"it docs not know where to start, what
exactly the course would entail or how
to give it if it were added." These
statements seem meaningless due to
the fact that Dr. Nonnan of the History
department this year gave a
course on Afro-Asian history In the
Fairfield Graduate School curriculum.
Dr. Nonnan also presented an African
Seminar to enlisted and officer res-ervists
from three Connecticut based
U. S. A. F. reserve companies. Could
it be that a course of this nature will
not be given due to the fact that Dr.
Nonnan will be leaving the Fairfield
teaching staff next year and there Is
no other qualified. professor or wlUing
professors joining the teaching staff
at Fairfield next year, but how many
are history or government professors
aside from the replacement for Dr.
Norman. I am not stating that our
history professors arc lacking in any
intellectual capacity in European or
Russian history but the department is
not t"Xpandlng to cover the field of
history and governm<!nt around the
world.
Dr. McCarthy has stated, "the topic
is so huge, how could one teach it?"
A little research into the curriculum
of nearby Connecticut colleges would
surfice to answer that question.
Dr. McCarthy also stated, "survey
courses in Chinese or some African
history would not gh'C enough depth
tions, the seriousness of the situation
is amplified.
1 request that the Student Government
or the Administration look into
this problem immediately and possibly
set up a board that would screen the
advising statl. I would also like to see
a s)'stem by which the student who is
certain of his major be! compelled to
reK'blter for an ad...isor before the
beginning of the second semester. This
way he would be assured of receiving
infonnnlion from a man who Is in the
sam<! fI<!ld as the interested stud<!nt
intends to enter. For those who al'C un·
certain of th<!ir choice of major, ad·
visors who have b<!en compelled to
prepare job infonnation should be pro·
vided.
Whatever, it is imperative that the
present system be revised.
Sincerely,
Wlltlam Rabbl>t t '69

advantage of the excellent selection
of courses.
It is regrettable that no course
is being offered in Afro-Asian
history, especially since these
continents are now in the limelight
of international relations.
No history or government major
can afford to remain ignorant of
the Afro-Asian nations.
We see the increase of elective
courses as a positive sign of
a growing university. We urge
all departments to match the improvements
that have been made
in the Physics, English, and ;Philosophy
programs. Finally we encourage
students to make known
to the Dean any obvious deficiencies
or desired improvements
in the selection of courses and,
at the same time, to make good
use of those which have been
offered.

of their predecessors so
that they will initiate the programs
necessary to raise the
Student Government to the position
it deserves on campus. We
will enter a period of watchful
waiting (or both men to carry

of their respective campaign

To the Editor:
There ha"e been protests raised
concerning the present Faculty Advisor

freshmen, are dissatisfied with the

their choice of major and the

I know of one student who received no

his advisor is a Biology teacher.

The team returned to its old

Stag In the match 1l.,""Hln~t a highly tlilented Stonehlll WIlUl.
Turning the radio on the other night, I had the occasion
to listen to the last half o[ a news broadcast. The announet· was
saying, with very little confidence. "Russian Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko met with Pope Paul VI today for [orty·flve
minutes to discus.~ (Iollg pause) peace." Just as if they were
discussing the weather no doubt. "J:o~inc pence we're having. Your
Holiness, but with a chance of rain." "Yes, it docs look like rain,
Andrei, but YO\ll' [orly-five minutes are up. May I lend you my
umbrelJa?"
How does one discuss peace? What is peace that it can be
discw;sed and mentioned in such ludicrous generalities. And for
fol'ty-fh'c minutcs. Is it the temper of the prevailing winds, the
quiet aflel' the batHe, 01' Ihe silence after the din. It·s Ameri·
can and Godly and clean·cut to be pro·peace, but just what is
it?
When Paul journeyed to the United Nations in OctObel" he
implied that, with "'ncvel' any war", peace would always be with
us. With enough br<!ad on every table, conflict and dissention
would be stilfJed. But it is more than that. Look to an age where
peace is an almost non existent entity. It is passe for men to
love men; It is In to be alienated, angr)', fierce, and yet very,
very afraid.
In this age, hwnan emotions have reached such a breaking
point, that, when man looks to his world, he sees little more
than absurdity. Hitler was absurd, Dachau was absurd, ComrnWiism
is absurd. Life to the peoples is a fundamentally Wi·
happrexpenenre, ·tcnninated at death when there is peace
because they are no more.
Some resign themseh'es to life; they bear it like a cross
in the corruption of their own natures and in doing so forfeit
their inheritance. Yet in this resignation they find peace.
Our culture is not one that is founded on peace. The art,
music, and ethos of our culture is found~ on absurdity, conflict,
and the erratic motion of fate. Into this milieu must come
peace, a very separate peace. It is the peace that our genera·
tion must bring to the world. From this brash and alienatlxl
world there are some who will come forward to hold the com·
pass, to gl'Ound themselves in the world that others have con·
diUoned before them. Rathel' than stand on the periphcl'y of
life because "I didn't start World War II," or "I didn't invent
the Hydrogen bomb", th<!y will Inuuersc themselves in the world
beeause men started World War II and men created the Hydre>gen
bomb .They \vill not disinherit the world because It is
absurd, creating their own sub·culture; but rather they will take
the world into their hands and transform it.
From conflict, hate. and inhumanity the)' will sow se~s of
love. They will know what real suffering is because they have
seen the world bleed. They will know what hate is because they
have seen the world hate. They will know what peace is, be·
cause they Ul-e in the world, they lo\'e the world, and they are
transforming the world. Above aU, they will know that peace
is the love they have for the world and the love it will return
to them. It will be a very seprate peace.
