THE SKYSCRAPER Mundelein College 6363 Sheridan Rd., Chicago, 111., 60626 That inconstant spirit, dedica tion, has gone to Florida with all the lucky ones, leaving the bodies behind. Crocuses (croci?) are up; the dogwood is blooming, the grass is green and windows are wide open mainly because they are too dirty to see out of. Could this mean something? Some enterprising soul with nothing better to do compiled a list of what type of students attend which colleges and published it. Says he, The most intellectual, masculine, pragmatic students go to technological institutes. (Per haps.) Students who attend Catholic colleges . . . are interested in art and music but not those who at tend Catholic universities. (See, it's not only a fence which sepa rates Mundelein from Harvard on the Rocks. ) Here is the clincher: Catholic universities have highly masculine students. And all this information just from reading a newspaper Ah, the wonders of an education. By the way, just a casual ques tion: Just what are the wonders of an education? It certainly does not fit the old birthday-party query: Heavy heavy hang over the head. What are you going to do with it? Eat it? Wear it? Play with it? The big question, for the non- teaching sorority, is what to do now. Ten thousand dollars is a Faculty Venture On Study Trips; Receive Grants Two faculty members have been cited for honors which will send them to Europe this summer. Mrs. Robert Matasar, of the po litical science de- partment, is working on her doctoral disserta tion for Columbia University next year under a 2,500 award from the Ameri- c a n Association of Univer- sity Women. It is one of 50 awards granted upon request throughout the United States. The thesis, Italian Migrant Labor in Switzerland within the Framework of Inter- European Labor Migration, will develop this summer through inter views which Mrs. Matasar plans to do in the two countries. Mrs. Matasar will teach part time at Mundelein next year while working on her dissertation to be completed in June, 1967. English professor, Sister Mary Anne Leone, B.V.M., will teach Literary Classics of Western Eur ope to 90 high school students in the historic at mosphere of Eng land and France. The position of administrator and teacher was of fered Sister by Dr. Lynn M. Hilton, headmaster of Foreign Language League Schools, Salt Lake City. The first three weeks Sister and her group will study at Lycee in Cain, Normandy and travel through the area, then finish the eourse at Normale in Versailles. Mrs. Robert Matasar sizeable sum to spend only to be come a glorified secretary. The Hallmark contemporary card people also seem to be aware of the myth surrounding college earning potential. To quote a card: Work Study Strive and when you graduate you may make as much as a high school dropout. Three cheers and hip hip hooray. Charlie Brown is back in the out field again. At least they don't televise all his games. As usual, on Junior-Senior Lunch eon Day no one will recognize any of the upperclassmen tomorrow. Four years of loafers and sweaters and suddenly everyone's a Vogue model, complete with a hat, that strange piece of headgear that went out with invention of chapel veils. Half the senior countdown cal endar has passed on to wherever gladly-sadly gone days go. The sound of music resounds in the hall and it's not just coming from the showers. The music de partment is in full voice what with Opera Miniatures last Mon day the Navy Concert, and, with the drama people, Bells are Ringing in May. One thing, the Terrapins have taken seriously the suggestion that they not have a water show this year. They aren't Alas and alack, is there nothing controversial and/or humorous in this institution? Oh woe. Perhaps the Skyscraper should follow the example of the Detroit Free Press and the Chicago Ameri can and initiate an Action Line service. Even the Marquette Trib une has joined the good-samaritan swing with, believe it or not, a service called Muckrakings. Maybe Mundelein could call theirs Skyscrapings. Current popular songs certainly furnish pertinent comment, com ment on what- is more difficult to discern. For instance, is there any doubt that History Does Repeat Itself or, more ambivalent, that Everybody Must Get Stoned? If dorm bulletin boards are any indication, everyone's favorite art piece must be Picasso's Old Gui tarist. It must be the gui tar, everyone's favorite instrument. It took considerable something- or-other to serve hard boiled eggs for breakfast the day after Easter vacation. At least they weren't colored. Aside from this faux pas meals have undergone a noticeable improvement lately. In the words of a song lyric cur rently quoted: What's a nice girl like you do ing in a place like this?
