miscellanea
The following Items have been gleaned from college, national, and
other publications.
A conservative trend is occurring in many campus daily
newspapers and the Reagan administration is considered respon
sible. Within six months of Reagan's 1980 election three right-wing
publications started up: The Stanford Conservative Review, The
Williams College Republican, and The (Columbia University)
Morningside Review. These conservative periodicals joined similar
periodicals already existing at Dartmouth, Harvard, Vale, Princeton
and the Claremont Colleges
College campuses, once the bastion of radicalism, may be
beginning to reflect the national conservative trend.
Peter Maillet, one of the founders of the Stanford Conservative
Review, said he "saw a shocking bias towards the left. and a
market for a conservative viewpoint.”

Spokane audibly sighed after Ozzy Osbourne, the self-styled
"madman of rock," failed to deliver with the "expected” mutilation
of animals during a recent concert. Spokane city officials viewed
the concert and remarked that no dogs, cats, bats or goats were
used in the show
Osbourne, instead of disemboweling an animal, "hanged" a
black-robed dwarf
The Spokane Chronicle, June 17, 1982
Oregon State University has been targeted by a "disciplined,
aggressive" religious group “spreading God’s love.” The vanguard
of a group calling itself Agape Force arrived in Corvallis a number of
weeks ago They selected OSU and Corvallis because of their
location in the "relatively unchurched, highly suicidal Pacific
Northwest "
The leaders Frank Molinar and Bruce Rosdahl explained they
are "Christian soldiers" and intend to develop dormitory Bible
studies, personal evangelism, conduct field trips and sponsor
Christian singing groups
The Barometer (Oregon State University), June 3, 1982
Gabrielle Napoiitano, a senior at Princeton University who was
found guilty of plagiarism, has appealed a judge's ruling supporting
the university's decision to withhold her diploma for a year.
Notice of the appeal was filed in the appellate division of
Mercer County Superior Court in Trenton, N J., on June 8, gradua
tion day for other Princeton seniors.
A university committee twice found Napoiitano guilty of
plagiarizing a term paper for a Spanish course Judge William Drier
called the penalty harsh, but upheld the university's right to
withhold the diploma
The Chronicle of Higher Education, June 23, 1982
Apparently, more than the usual number of students are opting
for practical degrees (such as in business rather than degrees in
the liberal arts) and this has higher education officials worried
“Some of the brightest undergraduates are not considering
academic careers,” says Robert R Goheen, director of the Mellon
Fellowships in the Humanities.
As a result of this more practical approach scholars believe
universities will face a shortage of new teaching talent perhaps as
soon as the next decade
The present job prospects in teaching are all but nil, but
demographics indicate a turnaround in the 1990s when the
college-age population will increase and a sizeable portion of
tenured faculty will retire
Newsweek, June 14, 1982
Professor Albert Hofmann's problem child LSD is making
something of a comeback on college campuses in the 1980s. Law
enforcement agencies have become aware of the resurgence of the
controversial drug's renewed popularity.
"Most of the original scare stories have been discounted,” says
a law enforcement official from King County, Wash “Drug trends
go in cycles — a new generation comes along and rediscovers (the
drugs).”
The growing use of LSD can be attributed to the widespread
use of hallucinogenic mushrooms, which grow wild throughout the
Northwest Mushrooms are quite popular among students and have
an affect that is similar to LSD
